Xander ,'Showtime'
[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.
The actor who played Sun's father? Sucked.
Not only that, but I got the impression that all of his dialogue was ADRed after the fact.
Thought that this episode was definitely better than the last few have been, and a good companion piece to "House of the Rising Sun."
I want Hurley to make the joke. With the accent "What is yer name? What is yer quest?" And then Charlie to come back with "No. It's not Monty Python. It's Indiana Jones!"
Jin's Dad was a lox, according to the local translator.
?????
I admit, when Jin did that extra-long pause when asked about his dad, I went 'oh, god, another member of the Daddy Issues Island Club.' But then it turned out his father rocked! And Jin knew he rocked!

I didn't think that the discman crapping out was funny. I actually thought it was very sad.
Oh, I thought so too, especially coming on the heels of the very couply focus on Shannon/Sayid and Charlie/Babymama.

A-ha! The letterings on TV is now somewhat readable. The stuff we white-fonted before, tiggy? Looks like that's confirmed. It basically says;
"
Lucky winner
"
"Los Angeles, California"
Jin with sunglasses on ...
Oh my, yes.
I liked this episode a lot, and what I liked most about it were the tangled plots of knowledge-deficits. I like the ways that Jin and Sun are fumbling at each other, cluelessly, but in some version of good faith.
I'm a little weird on the whole 'No, I'll stand aside and watch one guy beat the other to a bloody pulp' at the climax, however. I can understand that there's a dramatic progression involved, but, I don't know as how it makes actual group-dynamics sense. Then again, I don't know why Jin, upon discovering the fire, didn't start yawping for help. Yawping in Korean would probably not get in the way of being understood to say, "Danger! Danger!"
thanks, Vonnie! how did i watch tv shows before the internet? there was probably so much that i missed!

Ha! So I guess Hurley's good for that $83,000 he owes Walt, then?
