A cliffhanger royale.

I just watched the double episode season finale of Lost, and all I have to say is this ..



Oh my god, first the boat, with the guy, with the greasy hair, the accent and the liquor, who turns out be shipwrecked, and rescued, by that other guy, with the beard, but not the bad bearded guy, another bearded guy, and then him and the old guy trick the big black man and lock(e) him out of the hatch, because they don't want to push the button, but the big black guy tries to blow it open, nearly killing himself and the hobbit, and then the Iraqi feller uses the boat, sails around the island, and finds a massive foot*, and then in the jungle, the doctor dude exposes the little black guy, but they keep going, and are caught, and the little black guy gets his kid, and sails off, and I thought the boat was gonna blow, and it didn't, because it couldn't, because the little black guy's kid has special powers which everybody forgot, because it was only hinted at way back, in the first season, and then the button isn't pushed, and all kinds of shit hit several different fans, but the guy, with the liquor, and the accent, has a key, which he got from the guy who saved him, and he crawls down a hatch, in the hatch, and turns the key, and the island cries, and the skies turn violet, and then the fat guy is sent back, but the doctor dude, the chick and the hillbilly stay with the Others, and then the Russian guys, playing chess, with the blinking light, who call the woman, who used to be with the guy, who was on the boat, with the accent, and the liquor ..

And breathe.

That is one kick-ass cliffhanger. Oh, and incidentally, you know what they call a kick-ass cliffhanger in France?

Cheers

* Not so subtle reference to Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe, anyone?

Speaking of royale, I was at the movie today and I saw trailer for Casino Royale. Daniel Craig is too blond and too smooth to be a 007. He does have a pretty hot body though.

It was indeed a great cliffhanger. slightly frustrating though as with good old Lost stylee, it created more questions than it answered! Roll on series three!

I second the hot body comment.. mmm
