LOST - more weird stuff

Okay by now we all know the hanso foundation website which is http://www.thehansofoundation.org

but do you know if you enter https://www.thehansofoundation.org you get a blank page with bigspaceship1.com on it... now enter that website - www.bigspaceship1.com and you get something real odd.

Please note the title bar with morse code across it. The site changes through out the day with morse code messages changing - from THE LAND OF THE LOST to SO LONG, AND THANKS FOR ALL THE FISH

The significance of this. No idea.

Just another thing to keeps us LOSTAWAYS or LOSTONIANS or whatever we are busy

LOST - Jin speaking English?

On the promo for episode 2.4 we get a clip of Jin, with a clear American accent saying "Everything is going to change". There are only 3 theories for this that really make any sense.

1. It is a dream sequence of some sort. (30%)

2. In a flashback we discover Jin is really someone else. At a stretch an undercover CIA agent but this is highly unlikely. (20%)

3. The clip was really of Daniel Dae Kim talking about the second season just thrown into the preview to freak us all out. (50%)

LOST - Man of Faith opening sequence

Found these piccys on a message board think they kind of support the theory that the opening sequence was indeed a flashback. Not of Desmond but quite possibly of Kelvin or another previous occupant of the Hatch. Many people argue that it is all just continuity errors but on a show like Lost where all the little things are possible clues I think this would all be a huge mistake if someone had just forgotten where to place a lamp. Judge for yourself below. Sorry if the pics are kinda dark thats how I found them

These first two show 2 different desk lamps.













These next two show different stereos (metal front and wood front) and the records are more frayed/worn in the 2nd pic













And now the cabinet is clean and then suddenly filthy.











Finally these 2 show another moved/missing lamp, also the lava lamp has gone.

MOVIE REVIEW - Save the Green Planet (2003)

Director: Jun-hwan Jeong
Starring: Ha-kyun Shin, Yun-shik Baek, Jeong-min Hwang, Jae-yong Lee

Aliens walk among us. Or so Beong-gu (Ha-kyun Shin) believes. And as any drug-addled insane person would do he tells his girlfriend Sooni (Jeong-min Hwang) and proceeds to kidnap the man he thinks is the leader of the aliens (Yun-shik Baek). Then setting about the task of torturing the truth out of him.

First time director Jun-hwan Jeong takes us on a horrifying journey into one man's madness where there is no line between good or bad. He skillfully blends genre after genre like he has been movie making all his life. Although the movie does follow the time tested B-movie plot of "they are among us" it doesn't grow tired or stale from the opening scenes you are dragged into the 'delusion or is it?' story.

The visual touches are often stunning with some gorgeous cinematography. The budget for this movie was around $3 million and comes off looking alot more thanks to the great camera and set work. Korean film-making has come along way in the past few years doing things which Hollywood would never dare touch and this along with films like OldBoy is an excellent example of a growing movie business.

Just a warning the torture scenes are often graphic, although never gratuitous, they may not be everyone's cup of tea.

The Good: Well-acted. Great to watch. Insane.
The Bad: The ending went on for a little too long.
The Ugly: Torture scenes.

Overall: Beautifully daring and wonderfully terrifying. 9/10
