Especially Lapidus' follicular homage to Paulie Walnuts.<BR/><BR/>RE: Narnia. I'm still bitter about finding out the one non-religious gift from my grandparents (Narnia books) was one big Christ allegory. Fucking bait and switch is what that was. Or maybe a trojan horse. Regardless, <A HREF="http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,1550612_20250233_20259645,00.html" REL="nofollow">this article</A> goes into more detail on the Narnia parallels.<BR/><BR/>Weird connection that may be old news: I finally saw the second half of Frequency, which deals with weird electro-magnetic phenomenon affecting the normal timeline. Weird coincidence #1: Quaid's wife looked damn familiar, and I finally realized it was Juliet from Lost playing a character named "Julia" as a play a brunette:<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.celebritywonder.com/mp/2000_Frequency/elizabeth_mitchell_dennis_quaid_frequency_001.jpg" REL="nofollow">Pic #1</A><BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.celebritywonder.com/mp/2000_Frequency/dennis_quaid_elizabeth_mitchell_daniel_henson_frequency_001.jpg" REL="nofollow">Pic #2</A><BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.celebritywonder.com/mp/2000_Frequency/tn/noah_emmerich_michael_cera_james_caviezel_frequency_001.jpg" REL="nofollow">Pic #3</A><BR/><BR/>Weird coincidence #2: The serial killer's name?

Probably the single most famous verse in the Bible: "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."<BR/><BR/>So that's Locke, right? Sacrificed himself for the greater good? And, I'm guessing, he'll be resurrected on the island -- will it take 3 days?<BR/><BR/>I'm with you. All this religion stuff adds an additional element that I'm not as excited to dive into. It's another level of complication to the mythology that I fear is going to play a big role in their end-game unfortunately.hendgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13894100402511546572noreply@blogger.com
