“Lost” in translation

Posted by Daniel Nasserian On May - 22 - 2010

LOST Lost in translationWith just a couple of days left before the “Lost” series finale, fans are asking themselves if the show can live up to the hype it has created over the past 6 years.

With many unanswered questions and only a two and a half hour finale left to go, the show’s devoted followers are hoping that their years of traded theories via online forums will propagate into something that will leave them breathless.

In a moment of pure honesty, “Lost” was one of my favorite shows on television.

I used to be the guy at the water cooler asking everyone what they thought last night’s episode meant for the future of the Oceanic 6. I would watch every episode twice looking for hidden objects and symbolic scenes.

I was…”that guy.”

You could imagine my excitement when the final season was being marketed every six minutes on ABC. I even attended a season premiere party complete with beer boasting a Dharma Initiative label.

It was the final season of a show that I had dedicated the past five years to and I was pumped. But with the promise of the biggest questions being answered, I found myself asking more and more questions at the end of each installment and as season six developed, my interest began to fade.

Poorly written episodes that seemed to drag the dwindling story along and the addition of a parallel timeline made it seem like season six wasn’t the last season at all.

What really got to me is that the few answers we received simply weren’t thought out well or not explained in enough detail. One event that comes to mind is when “The Man In Black” explains that he is going to simply put a wooden wheel into a stone wall in order to alter time. Something so critical to the Lost series and complex as time travel was passed off in conversation like it was nothing.

This got me thinking back to what made the show so great. The fact that the series created a buzz and got people, like myself, to chat at the water cooler was it’s ultimate success. It was the mystery and character development that made “Lost” one of the best shows on TV.

Now we find ourselves at a crossroad and the mystery that captivated it’s audience is being put to the test.

Will the “Lost” series finale make it one of the best shows in history or will it turn out to be one of the biggest disappointments that we have ever seen?

The Lost series finale airs this Sunday and has two and a half hours to answer five years of questions.

I certainly am looking forward to it but be warned, you will hear back from me if Jack Shephard disappears to Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believing”.

Batman: Arkham Asylum Game of the Year edition…now in 3D?

Posted by Daniel Nasserian On May - 17 - 2010

Those who are on the email list for publishers, Square Enix, might have received an email this week promoting the Batman: Arkham Asylum Game of the Year Edition. With a major buzz around 3D in film, the gaming industry has begun to grab on. I could go on and on about how I think this 3D kick is just another fad that failed in both the 50s and 80s and may be used to distract movie goers from less than stellar storylines, but Batman: Arkham Asylum was a proven hit for Batman fans and gamers who like a solid action game.

In case you missed another awesome season finale of Smallville, perhaps this might entice you to check it out.  The intro takes a flash forward glimpse of the Daily Planet in the year 2013 and for the first time in the show, reveals a split-second glance of Clark Kent in full Superman attire!  Sure, it may be CGI, but tell me that doesn’t look like Tom Welling’s face in the pic below icon smile First pic of Supes in Smallville!  The scene afterwards also teases the suit and how Clark receives it as a gift from his mother. Season 10 can’t come soon enough!
