No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Lost: OMGWTF POLAR BEAR  

[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Just tried to explain to someone that the reason I love Buffistas is because you can go there and read a conversation in which the characters for Lost are being mapped onto Watership Down.

Maybe I should have taken off the tinfoil hat, I think it threw them off.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Especially because of those two lines, I don't think he and Sun are actually married.

Add the fact that he was alone in the ticket line, and I think that's what we're going to find out this week.

I started it over on TWoP too. (And speaking of TWoP, have you found tivodivo yet?)

Mapping it onto the Lost cast, you could say that Jack is Hazel and Locke is Fiver. Sayid as Blackberry and Sawyer as Bigwig. That leaves Kate as... I dunno. Not Dandelion.

Consensus there was Kate = Hyzenthlay. I haven't read the book in years, dammit. Must rectify.

As for mapping characters onto the WD rabbits, I could see Charlie becoming the Dandelion equivalent.

That sounds about right. Hurley could be Strawberry.

I don't know shit about Watership Down and I decided to google th summary and I found a character analysis. What do you all think about this and its application to Lost?

No. I figure whoever it is wants to remain covert for some myterious reason, at this point.

le nubian, thanks for that link.

I think it confirms our preliminary placings of Jack/Hazel, Locke/Fiver, Sayid/Blackberry (or perhaps Sayid/Blackavar), and Sawyer/Bigwig.

It also tells us we should start calling the monster General Woundwort.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

To continue the mapping, I'll bet that Kehaar will end up being some (as yet) unfound person on the island. The French woman who left the message, perhaps?

By the by, I'm Sophia P. over at TWOP.

ita,

RE the Lost poster you found. At knit night on Friday, one of the knitters was telling me that the week before the show started, they were handing out ones with Kate on them (saying she was dangerous, etc) on the 3rd Street Promenade. I love the one of Charlie.

AND is Dom really 5'8"?

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

For the Five Man Band theorists among us:

Hero/Lead Singer: Jack
Lancer/Lead Guitarist: Sawyer
The Big Guy / (bassist or drummer): My man Hurley
The Smart Guy / (keyboardist): Locke
The Chick/ (tambourine, vocal effects): Kate

It falls apart in a major way with Kate. I'm guessing that Kate is going to be a lot more Lancer than The Chick, and that Sawyer is going to become some flavor of Major Pain in the Antagonist.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I find it humorous that the Bigwig parallel has no hair.
