Weird Celebrity Crush: Michael Emerson

3 days ago by Liana Maeby | 6 Comments

I watched the first five seasons of LOST in a single month, committing whole weekends to Thai delivery and the mysteries of Flight 815. During those four weeks I became completely entrenched in the world of polar bears and smoke monsters, living vicariously through Kate and suddenly feeling closer to Hurley than to my best friend, and then closer to Vincent than to my boyfriend. … More »

By now, photographers should really know better than to stare directly at Lost’s Michael Emerson when taking his picture. I heard the last guy who did keeled over and had a heart attack. Oh wait no, that was Lady Gaga. … More »
6 Other Weezer Concept Albums Based On Supporting Television Show Characters

9 days ago by Drew Grant | 2 Comments

When it was announced that Weezer’s new album was going to be named Hurley, and would feature a picture of Lost’s Jorge Garcia on the cover, people flipped out. Because if there’s one thing America can get together on, it’s shows about smoke monsters and guys who stay unreasonably overweight on a desert island for six years. Just sayin’!

And while Weezer has been unusually quiet about their reasons for such a move, we decided that as much as we love Hurley, there were several other characters of our favorite TV shows that were equally deserving of their own cover art. Check it out.

But there are just so many other good ones! … More »
Gallery: 'Lost' Auction Is Huge. Literally.

11 days ago by Drew Grant | Comment

This weekend in a Santa Monica airport hanger, hundreds of Lost fan(atics) bid on $900,000 worth of memorabilia from the show. Considering that even the small items like Dharma beer cans netted over $5k, we have to wonder who in the world could afford some of the bigger auctions…like half of Oceanic Flight 815. Yeah, the plane. Check out our gallery below and marvel at what people with too much money get to spend it on these days. By the way, that VW bus? $47,500. And it doesn’t even run.

If You Liked the 'Lost' Finale, You'll Love '7 Minutes In Heaven'

16 days ago by Drew Grant | Comment

J.J. Abram’s production company Bad Robot is producing a movie called 7 Minutes In Heaven, and it will be directed by Stephen Bender, who directed that last episode of Lost. Which is fine. Maybe people like their movies with giant plot-holes and more religious analogies than a C. S. Lewis book. But here’s what we don’t get: … More »

Weezer's Cover Album Presents Definitive Closure for 'Lost' Fans

Screw that 12-minute epilogue. Rivers Cuomo knows how to answer six seasons worth of burning questions about a magic island: With an album titled Hurley that includes a giant portrait of Gorge Garcia. Or it could just be one giant in-joke that we’re not getting. Then again…that’s sort of how … More »
The 'Lost' Epilogue: Yes, We DO Need It

26 days ago by erin | 1 Comment

When the 12-minute Lost Epilogue leaked on Jezebel, Drew and I were like: zomgzomgzomgzomgzomgzomgzomg. And then, like true Lost freaks, we debated its merits. Drew believes the clip – which ABC dragged off the web, replacing it with a shorter one – was nothing more than an awful tease. I think not, and here’s why. … More »
The 'Lost' Epilogue: Did We Need It? (Nope)

27 days ago by Drew Grant | 1 Comment

Sorry, I know a lot of people were very happy to see that 12 minutes of extra footage that leaked online Thursday evening, which helped explain everything in Lost that viewers were still wondering about. Like: “Where da polar bears come from?” And “just how badly did the actor that played Walt age?” And also: Was Michael Emerson the only guy they could convince to come back and do this shit?

In Your Dreams: 5 'Inception' Mashups with the Movies It Stole From

In Inception, Dom Cobbs is a master thief at stealing ideas from your dreams. Which is ironic, because Inception itself rips off some of the biggest movies of the decade. Here now are 5 “movie mashups” which highlight the similarities between Christopher Nolan’s film and its predecessors.
