Can't seem to get enough of Lost
I am rewatching Lost for the fourth time – from the start all the way up through the current season, which I believe is number 5. You could say that I really enjoy the show. I think more than anything, it is the island. Yes, it sucks me in also.
Tom Hanks in Castaway
If given a choice, I’d probably live on that island. I mean, there would need to be really interesting people around and I couldn’t be by myself. No, I wouldn’t want to be Tom Hanks in Castaway.
Just something about the mystery and beauty of that place.
Technically, that place does exist in the real world. It is Oahu, not far from where my wife and I spent our honeymoon. But there is no Jacob, Ben, Jack or Sawyer — and surely there isn’t a Juliet (awhh). There is no smoke monster, or Others, or hatches.
So while I’d be dodging a bunch of supernatural stuff while living there, at least the island would offer a diversion from real life responsibilities. No corporate bailouts or boring college basketball games. No deadlines to meet or social networks to maintain? No World of Warcraft to play? I know my wife would LOVE that.
But I’d still need to be in the Dharma initative or something and have a nice bed to sleep in, with semi modern conveniences. I wouldn’t need mobile broadband, just a shower (could be a sun shower I am not that picky) and maybe a hibachi.
