A JJ Abrams Kinda Night.
Saw Star Trek tonight and really enjoyed it. Way to keep the core fans relatively happy and yet start over at the same time. Very, fun popcorn movie. The smartest thing to do was focus on Kirk and Spock. Create their characters, mine them for some depth, show their differences and find a way to make them both heroic. Well done. I wonder if the sequels can keep it up....
Okay, that out of the way, let's get to LOST.
LOST can always be counted on to give you a great finale. And this year was the best of the bunch. I watched with a knot in my stomach the entire time. Would the bomb go off? Would Locke kill Jacob? Who is Jacob?
We got the answers to those questions, and of course more questions.
But wow. I mean... I need more time to digest this. But it's been a long time since I've gotten emotional over a TV show. Whether it's a lump in your throat, a knot in your stomach or a pain the brain... when that screen had gone to white I had it all.
I honestly hope next season opens with everyone getting off the plane.
What a finale.
Nine long months to go...

All those months and months ago when I made you get your ass in gear and watch LOST for the first time... You're welcome. :)
You and my friend Bryan deserve all the credit in the world. Thanks.
Glad to year you liked Trek. It was a good movie.
But, yeah..LOST. It sounds like hyperbole, but that's probably the biggest finale in the history of TV. Did the bomb fix everything? Did it do nothing? Or did we just witness the deaths of every Oceanic survivor except Sun? The writers sure know how to deliver a cliffhanger.
I really hope the next season opens with Jack and crew getting off Oceanic at LAX like nothing has happened. That would be a complete mind f*ck.
