Rewatching LOST

26596

 

So, in the last few months, I’ve spent more time online at The AV Club’s TV Club, and less time on Fark. There’s a whole other article as to why, but in a nutshell, Fark seems to be getting ‘meaner’, and way more sexist that it was, and TV Club comments are just funnier, and more clever. One of their features is rewatching older shows, and reviewing a couple of episodes a week. One of those show is LOST.

Unless you’ve lived under a rock since 2004, you likely have a least a passing familiarity with the show and it’s ‘trapped on a desert island’ premise. More likely, you’re familiar with the outcry at it’s completion, with the internet exploding in anguish over unsatisfactory answers etc.

Admin Rock Roundup – January 23, 2013

Back with Admin_Rock’s weekly look at what’s hot, and what’s cool, (at least in his world.)

It’s been months since I shared what I watch and hear and make. You all must be so stressed. Fear not, I bring you the updated lists.

FILM

Watched Best Exotic Marigold Hotel with Mrs. Admin Rock the other night. It was just as wonderful the second time. If you like old people, or India, or any combination thereof, you’ll enjoy this film. You might confuse it with Wes Anderson’s Moonrise Kingdom, but here’s a simple way to tell them apart: BEMH is actually about something, and doesn’t spend most of its time wistfully staring with vaseline on the lens. Okay, I haven’t actually seen Moonrise Kingdom, because I just don’t get Wes Anderson. Been burned too many times. I’m sure he’s all talented and awesome, but it’s like that movie that all your friends rave about, then you go see it, and it sucks donkey balls. It’s exactly like that. Donkeyballful. Donkeybawful.

On a recent flight, I watched both The Bourne Legacy, and Taken 2, without sound. Rather, they were on, and I glanced up occasionally, and wondered if any part of these films didn’t involve a chase, or standoff of some kind. I feel like I made the wiser choice.

Admin Rock Roundup Aug 23,2012

Back with Admin_Rock’s weekly look at what’s hot, and what’s cool, (at least in his world.) Hey folks, normally this happens on Monday, but I was busy earlier this week, better late than never. FILM The Bond marathon stalled out at Octopussy. God Damn that was a terrible movie. I’ll rally and move through the rest, but I needed to get my head clear. Watched The Bourne Identity again. Now THAT’S a movie....

Admin Rock Roundup Aug 2, 2012

Back with Admin_Rock’s weekly look at what’s hot, and what’s cool, (at least in his world.) Hey folks, normally this happens on Monday, but I was busy earlier this week, better late than never. FILM Watched that body switch movie with Jason Bateman and Ryan Reynolds. The fact that I’m too disinterested to either remember the title or look it up even says about all you need to know. Also watched part of the...
