ok, ok. so i haven't seen T3. i can still be way psyched about T4 coming out this weekend, right?? well, i am. T2 is one of my all-time favorite movies, and i'm pretty excited that christian bale has decided to get on the terminator train. a movie series that gives me ahhnold, edward furlong and bale?? yea, i can't wait. it's just too bad i don't get a super-bad-to-the-bone linda hamilton reprise.
to get you pumped up for tomorrow's movie release (in ny anyhow), you should check out ew.com 15 best terminator moments gallery. (the first one is my favorite.)

you is talkin' loco, and i like it!
movie newsflash!!!
it seems that, while being interviewed for night at the museum II, or whatever it's called, ben stiller discussed the possibility of a second zoolander movie! (please insert freak-out here.) while i'm not usually a fan of sequels almost-ten-years later, i would welcome a zoolander sequel any day. seriously - old hansel? would david bowie make a second guest appearance? would we finally get to see how life is at the derek zoolander center for kids who can't read good? the possibilities are endless. i await your arrival, mr. mugatu!

and.... more.
in my combined bored-at-work with must-gather-every-shred-of-information-available-on-lost (yes, i have problems), i came across vozzek69's recap of the finale. i know he's supposed to be good, but in normal weeks, by the time i had read ew and LLL, my brain was already mush, and i knew a new ep was around the corner. but now, i have nothing.
aside from his recap being quite super, i just came across this theory on not-jacob's cabin that really blew me away:
"My theory on this is long and complicated, and probably has some holes in it... but here it is:
The man in the dark shirt was somehow imprisoned in the cabin, kept there by the circle of ash. This is who we first saw say "Help me" when the cabin was introduced. Maybe Jacob tricked him in there and trapped him, and maybe Richard even helped. This could explain why the dark man could at first only appear in one of his most ancient forms - the smoke monster - because his physical being was stuck in the cabin behind the circle of ash. We also saw him appear in the forms of Yemi and Alex, but only after having scanned the minds of the people who knew those characters.
Whatever the case, once the circle was broken the entity was allowed to leave. It took the form of Christian, but it also knew that Richard would never lead Christian to where Jacob was hiding out. It therefore needed to take the form of John Locke, a man who Richard envisions should be the true leader of the Others. As Richard points out, only the leader of the Others would be permitted an audience with Jacob... it's part of "the rules" and the smoke monster knows this.
And so the dark dude/monster develops an elaborate plan: To become Locke, it knows the original John Locke needs to die. But the island (Jacob?) won't let allow Locke to die; this is best evidenced when Ben shoots him point blank and he somehow lives. It realizes it needs to get Locke off island in order to kill him. It then uses ghost Christian to manipulate Locke into turning the wheel, where it knows/hopes Locke will be killed, while at the same time planting seeds in Locke's head that he'll need to die in order to come back. Ben dutifully brings Locke's body back on Ajira 316, thinking he's doing the island's bidding when he's actually doing the opposite.
The smoke monster takes over from there. All that's left at that point is to gain a weapon with which to kill Jacob. That weapon is Ben, and the dark man has been sharpening that weapon for a long time now."
yea. go read the whole recap. because seriously - what else do you have going on without lost recaps?
dear darlton.
in my constant quest to find out more about lost, i found a pretty great list of questions on the ny mag website. gems such as: "did widmore and elosie every get an audience with jacob?" and "why did they burn not-jacob's cabin?" and "what the heck happened to ilana's face (and did jacob heal it like in the same way he seems to revive real-locke after his fall)?" at least they ask my question about where the heck is claire (and why does no one - except potentially kate - seem to care)? give us some answers, puh-lease!!!
also, the always-hilarious tvgasm lost recap is out, though only on the first part of the finale.
anyone else wishing we could time travel to 2010 to start season 6 asap?
