LOSTblog.com’s very own Jacob recently sat down for an interview with our friends over at F**kYeaLost.com. Check it out here.

Didja see the Super Bowl? More important, didja see the LOST-related commercials? One featured Francois Chau (Dr Chang/Halliwax/Candle) in a lab coat, the other is of survivors of a plane crash on a tropical island, featuring one decidedly Kate-looking castaway. See them both here. In response we saw a lot of fan tweets like these:

jenwag57 – I got more excited from that commercial than any other because I yelled out Lost, Pierre Chang!

YaGottaBKiddnMe – LOL! Bud Light is loving LOST this year

erinava – I LOVED THAT #LOST BUD LIGHT COMMERCIAL!!!!!!!!!!

The Gospel According To LOST by Chris Seay

If you are looking for a book that explains how the TV show LOST will end, The Gospel According to LOST by Pastor Chris Seay is NOT for you. However, if you are interested in pursuing dynamics from the hit show that are tie-ins to Christianity and how the characters of LOST remind us of our own need to pursue a relationship with God, this book is right up your alley.

I’ve already leaped to the defense of Exposé. Now I’m taking on the Spock’s Beard (per @justinkeyes) episode of LOST and giving a bit of apology for giving it a little rewatch.

So let it not be said that I’m not afraid of taking risks.

First, regarding Stranger in a Strange Land let’s just jump through all the Bai Ling scenes and any reference to Thailand.  I’m on board with having @mjgoldman dump those in the editing bin when mastering the LOST complete series Bluray set.

I am very happy to report that the warm and wonderful woman that so many of us know as @Mulderism on Twitter, Djuna Rykiel, has started up a new LOST theories blog called “lostrithm.” If you know Djuna at all you know that she is extremely thoughtful and deep, and you’ll see the same in her blog.  When asked about it Djuna replies:

Still tweaking, still updating. As I mention on the blog, the past theories will be linked to specific livejournal entries to honour the time stamp. The newest entries will deal with fleshed out theories. Promise no spoilers. It’s always light-hearted speculation.

lostrithm is definitely worth a look, so go check it out!  Congratulations and thanks, Djuna!

I listened to this last week, and I must claim overwhelming real life to have not posted a blog about it.  Jorge Garcia and his trusty sidekick (Sidekick22) Beth , are podcasting LOST episodes.  They’re spoiler-free (but not necessarily insider information free according to @DonaldJr) because, they’re recording the podcast’s when they first get the script for the episodes.  It’s great to listen to Jorge and Beth kibbutz about what going on and listen to how they’re just as confused as we are about the episode LA_X.

Give it a listen here:

Lyly Ford is 25, from France and in her words ‘a crazy LOST fan’ who gets up in the middle of the night so she can watch LOST at the same time as her friends across the Pond. Her LOST blog (http://lylyford.blogspot.com) is packed full of news, videos and exclusive pics and you can follow Lyly on Twitter here.

Q: How long have you been watching Lost?

A: I started watching LOST in 2004 in France. I didn’t watch the pilot; I started with the middle of The Moth. When I first saw the preview of LOST in TF1 it was the Season 1 poster and it seemed to me like another reality show with people in a jungle, so I continued to watch Smallville. Even when my friend told me it was a new series, Dominic Monaghan was in it, it was a JJ Abrams show and she told me about the first episode I was like, nah – this show seems to suck! But then after the season finale of Smallville I was bored and I thought, what can I watch? I changed the channel and Sawyer, The Moth and I hooked up. I watched the pilot and the 6 episodes I’d missed at the beginning of Season 1. I was amazed at the pilot. The first part is great but my favourite is the second – I loved the revelation about Rousseau and Charlie’s line, ‘Guys, where are we?’

Q: How did Lost get its polar bear claws into you? What about it got you hooked?

A: Sawyer and Locke! Seriously it’s them who made me watch week after week, one for a emotional level, the other for the mystery on the island.

Thanks to a pre-coffee discussion with @badm0mbot on Twitter, my mind in a serious caffeine deficit jumped to this conclusion: LOST is based on They Might Be Giants lyrics!

First proof: Particle Man (lyrics)

A story of four different “men” (or is it mans?).  Particle Man seems to be not fixed in time or space, “Is he a dot, or is he a speck? when he’s underwater does he get wet?”  I think that’s pointing to Desmond, but I could be persuaded that it’s Daniel given that he went underwater in a submarine and didn’t get wet.

Triangle man seems to hate everybody.  So I’m thinking Triangle Man is Smokey/MiB.  He picks fights with Particle Man and later with Person Man (Is he depressed, is he a mess? Does he feel totally worthless?).  Person Man also lives in a garbage can.  So Person Man is obviously John Locke (Triangle Man fights Person Man, Triangle wins).

Our good friends at LOSTargs have a great interview with the man behind the LOST poster series. Head on over and check it out!

Bud Light ad peeps are beast at picking up pop-culture trends, and so naturally embeds some LOSTian icons into some ads during the Super Bowl. Which I’m sure made ABC happy. First up Pierre Chang in the Second-Timeline seems to have picked up a job saving the world, brother. Avoiding armgeddon by hard partying.

Bud Light – Planetarium

The next is pure blantant parody, and awesome.  I guess even in bizarro land no one listens to Kate. According to @EWDocJesen Damon responded to EW with the following:

My love for seeing Francois Chau (Dr. Candle) back in a white labcoat… is surpassed only by kicking myself for never having thought to use one of the plane engines as a hot tub.

Here is a GREAT fanvid of the LOST opening titles IF… LOST had been made in 1967!  It’s fab!  It’s gear! It’s HAPPENING BABY!

Hey Losties, sorry but I was caught in a flash-sideways which took up my ENTIRE DAY yesterday!  Scary!  So these tweets are primarily from LOST production on February 5 (for other February 5 tweets check out the UK Premiere Live Tweeting Edition) and from Simon Pegg (Scotty in the Star Trek movie) plus a couple of Super Bowl tweets from this morning that needed to be posted before the game today!

DamonLindelof – Sorry, I’ve been down the rabbit hole. Overwhelming week. And yeah, I heard about WATCHMEN sequel. What do YOU think I think? 1:52 PM Feb 5th
