Re: Lost

Okay, so I'm thinking about Hurley's comment about how he is known as a warrior among his people (or something like that) and I'm wondering if he is a video game tournament player/winner or something like that.

If so, this may tie in with the spoiler that he has an amazing talent or skill. What might a serious videogame player have in terms of talent or skill?

Precise timing. High levels of visual accuity/fine manipulation coordination.

Plus, I've known guys Hurley's size who could just about curl engine blocks, so he could still be hiding some real muscle under there.

Maybe he's a karaoke champion.

Giving me a visual of Hurley peeling off his mask to reveal that he is in fact David Boreanaz.

And thank you for sharing it with the rest of us....

hmm. interesting.

Angel dancing in "She" is still one of my favorite moments. The clapping thing has me rolling on the floor every.single.time.

I think Sayid needs to do that.

If he's a big fan of first person shooter games, maybe quick reflexes and good aim? Or perhaps having incredibly strong and calloused thumbs will come in handy somehow...

The Angel-dancing scene makes me cringe, every time. Maybe the "funny" neurons in my brain are just wired wrong, but I never laugh at stuff like that. I just wince.

The Wesley dancing scenes make me cringe. Not Angel though. He looked like he was having fun.

Knowing that's 100% pure Boreanaz showing through there and he does that sort of thing all the time without self-consciousness mitigates the watch-from-the-hall factor for me. If he's not embarrassed by it, why should I be?

For really cringe-worthy, see Wesley's videotape scene in "Blood Money."
