Lost Vs. the Grammys who do you think will win? whee

Okay. So, I was hardly paying any attention during Sawyer's gun speech, because I was too busy giggling at the way he was holding that gun. He was all, "This is my new p***s! Say hello to my new p***s!"

Yes, I am twelve inside. But it's so much fun.

Hate him for what? I mean, I know what he's done that makes you hate him, as a person, but as a character? He's awesome.

Plus, he hates himself. And he wants you to hate him. So you're only giving him what he wants.

Danielle captured a stranger?
I want her to come back and for someone to clue in that they saw her child with the Others.

I also noticed Kate's mom and thought that was neat. Sawyer just keeps crossing paths with people's parents.

I was so disappointed with what Charlie did to Sun. The desire for revenge is just leading him to become more and more isolated.

In an unrelated plot - I thought the scenes with Hurley and Sayid were really sweet.

Just when I was starting to like Sawyer he has to go and do a thing like that! I also hate Charlie now. I think he's finally plumeted into some sort of madness. If he pulls himself out of it I may be able to muster up enough like. But, right now I'm really dissapointed. But, this is part of the reason I like this show. The line between the bad and good guys can't be drawn. It is a blurry shadow.

Anyway, I'm wondering if the religon theme is going to continue on the island. I hope not. If it turns out it is becoming a religous show, I'm not watching it any more. It shouldn't because it's Sci-fi and Sci-fi shows are usually secular but, you never know.

I don't mind him never becoming good again. Redemption storylines are all the rage. I like the idea that he's not good, but that it isn't the drugs making him bad. Too many people blame the drugs and don't take responsibility. I don't like Charlie the person very much anymore, but I love Charlie the character.

I knew Sawyer was gonna do something to make people hate him. It's what he does. He doesn't want anyone to like him.



Hah! Secular, but only with regards to Christianity. Which is hilarious. Respect other religions! But not Christianity! Christianity is evil! Even if we wouldn't be what we are now without it. For better and for worse. Hollywood's complete lack of respect for Christianity is annoying. And I'm not even a Christian.

I like the religious themes. I think that religion IS an important part of our lives, and that ignoring that is being false to humanity. People need to have something to believe in. Even atheists have beliefs.

I just don't understand people, like you, who won't watch it if it has religious motifs. I mean, I certainly can't think that you've never watched or read anything with religious motifs of some sort. LotR was heavy with it. Lost is just being less dodgy and more obvious. The Matrix, ostensibly Sci-Fi, was filled almost to bursting with it.



Well, you can, but it isn't simple or easy. And you're likely to relapse into old ways. I like that he isn't just good all of a sudden, that it's a stuggle and he doesn't always win it.



Charlie WAS good. Then he was betrayed time and time again by people he trusted, who he thought of as family. This was just the last straw for the little guy.

I can understand Charlie's reasoning in this case, even if what he did is awful. Locke went out of his way to humiliate Charlie, unnecessarily, after he obtained Charlie's trust. Charlie's motives are simple.

To JackofClubs Ressurection- nice point about the parents motif! Sounds like just the thing the writers would do, but I never saw it until you brought it up.

As far as the religious motif, I agree that religion is a big part of people's lives, so it does not to be on the show on some level. But that's all it should be- just another level of what the survivors are dealing with. It's all a matter of degree.

Also, as far as Charlie, the drugs could still be having an affect. Withdrawals are one of the worst things a person can go through. Add the drugs still being around, and the way people are acting toward him, and we may be seeing a part of Charlie's personality which isn't really the true Charlie.

As to Sawyer, I don't know that he wants people to hate him so much as he's afraid to trust anyone. It's safer to force people to keep their distance. After all, he's a con man. He os all people know how easy it is to be betrayed by someone you believed was sincere.
