I love it when fandoms collide.
May. 28th, 2010 07:51 amDid anyone else see the Jimmy Kimmel Aloha To Lost? That was hilarious. And I thought I was going to die from happiness when Jimmy said that Terry O'Quinn and Michael Emerson could now go on The Amazing Race together. I hope that Jerry Bruckheimer heard that! *wishes long and hard*
And that Survivor spoof! I almost cracked a rib, I was laughing so hard! I thought that was going to be a genuine alternate ending and I didn't get it until Jeff walked in omgomgomg *is still laughing*
I wish I know how to do the video clip thing but there's always YouTube.

And a couple of caps, God, that was one good laugh I had there!
"I'm sorry, Sayid, the tribe has spoken."

Now that's one extremely pissed-off, just voted-out survivor you have there!!

Speaking of Survivor, I saw an episode of its first season - Survivor:Borneo. The show was such a baby back then! And Jeff looked almost exactly the same then as he does now. He got better of course, and more confident, but it was such fun seeing how the show and Jeff were when the show was in its infancy.
I remember the hoopla caused by the show, so much excitement here as it was held at an island off the coast of East Malaysia. Haha, I guess calling it Survivor:Borneo sounded more exotic. Survivor:Malaysia? Meh, so tame :)

Date: 2010-05-28 01:53 am (UTC)I kind of agreed with what Jimmy said there, that when Rose said "You can get let go now", that was when they really died. I didn't quite know what to make of the ending when I first saw it. They all had died?
Yup, boy!Jacob was hilarious! I wish Jimmy had called him out. And I wish Mark Pellegrino was there, too!

Date: 2010-05-28 02:12 am (UTC)My take on it is that the island world was "real life", and the sideways world was a spiritual one they created for themselves to all "meet" in the next life, so that moment in the plane where Rose said "You can let go" was part of that spiritual world (or journey or purgatory or whatever you want to call it). But I think Jack actually died on the island, and as Christian said, everyone else died before him or after him.
I was just very glad I didn't have to see Sawyer die!

Date: 2010-05-28 03:20 am (UTC)The way I interpreted the ending was that by the time Jack was ready to let go, all the other people there had died, like Christian said, before or after him. Maybe in some cases it was years later, but he saw them as he remembered them, or more nicely dressed and coiffed, but not as 50 or 80-year-old versions of themselves. It was interesting to try to figure out who was more aware than others. I think Rose and Bernard had the right idea. "It's always something with you people." And Vincent probably got the best "life" of all of them!

Date: 2010-05-28 03:30 am (UTC)You know, when I first watched Lost season 1, my first thought at that time was that the show was like a scripted Survivor, so yeah, I love it that they did that parody there.
I agree with you about Rose and Benard, about them having the right idea. TBH, the show didn't really make sense to me but I enjoyed it all the same, it was well-executed, the acting was superb all around, and the writing and directing - divine. I didn't think that I ever was going to say this, but I'm going to miss Lost.

Mark Burnett was only given the green light for the one season at first, and a lot of folks thought it'd never catch on. So it was just 'Survivor,' and they only started calling it 'Survivor: Borneo' a few years later.
