Just another disappointing show, in my opinion.
You never tell the 'new guy' the plan. Maybe I've watched too many spy movies or maybe it's the intense parnoia kicking, but if someone is thrown into your prison with no explanation....they're a spy!
And what the hell is wrong with Jack? I used to like this guy. Now every other shot is him doing 'crazy' eyes, waving a gun and propagating quasi-nihilist philosophy....or crying, for what reason, I don't understand.
I wouldn't have pushed the button either. Seems kind of funny that 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42 = 108. Seems a little too neat. Not to mention, no replacements, no way to contact those in charge and no redundancy in case of a serious screw-up. I mean, what if Desmond and his buddy ate some bad food? What if they both passed out from some rare strain of some long forgotten Pacific influenza? Not to mention the idea of 5 (I thought there were 5...didn't the video say 3 of 5?) other installations, which I assume are on the island with 5 other 'Desmonds' keeping the end of the world at bay is a bit disturbing, to say the least.
Speaking of Desmond...I kind of like him. I especially like the way he adds 'brother' to the end of his sentences. I thought that kind of went out with the Hulkamania, but Desmond manages to pull it off....brother.
And I got a kick out of the film, brother. Ah, I guess it isn't for me....
