Total Drama Island

it just occurred to me that Total Drama Island is one of the many media franchises that took direct inspiration from the setup of Lost, some of the characters on TDI are direct inspo from Lost btw 😭😭

Watched for first time

Was surprised they never revisited the couple that was unknowingly buried alive (bit by spiders) with $8M in diamonds. It was brought up again in last season, but that was it. I was waiting for that to resurface, forever. Side note…Loved ending.

Ben's motives in S5's 'The Life and Death of Jeremy Bentham'

After Ben talks down Locke from hanging himself, Locke gives him two pieces of information, though Ben's reaction is hard for me to follow.

Jin is still alive. Ben seems genuinely shocked ("Jin is alive?!"), and looks away for a few moments.
Q1. He clearly knew a bunch of survivors were still alive since Widmore never got to the island and Locke was still alive, so why is he so shocked at Jin?
Q2. More importantly, what's he realizing/plotting once he learns this?

Eloise Hawking is the one to help them get back. Once Ben knows this he kills Locke obviously.
Q3. does he do this since he's now found a way back to the island AND at the same time could conveniently eliminate his competition as leader?
Q4. Are we meant to believe he didn't already know Eloise was able to help? Perhaps he only knew OF her if she left the island when Ben was a child, in 1977 so she could give birth to Daniel elsewhere. But even so, he must know The Lamp Post can find the island, since he usurped Dharma and learned about them. We don't see him at that station with Eloise until AFTER Locke is dead (even though it happens a few episodes earlier).

Hope that makes sense. I love talking about this show. :)

I finished my 3rd time rewatch

This show gets better after every rewatch. A couple thoughts :

\- I think that Claire's darkness was cured after the light was unplugged, since it temporarily made both powers of dark and light disappear. Since I think that this core was where souls come from and return to when a lifeform's physical envelope dies, I kinda wonder where the souls of people who died, MiB's included, went during the time it was unplugged. Disappeared into nothingness / destroyed? Less problematic for newborns since I imagine that their souls can enter their bodies a bit later, but then again dead souls might also be able to return to the source a bit later so it's probably a non-issue.

\- I feel I now have answers to every mystery, in part thanks to all of you too. I'm still teary-eyed while typing this. Lindelof, Cuse, etc. can be proud, and it annoys me that Lindelof seems to be apologetic in a few interviews ; he really shouldn't be since he actively participated in creating what I consider a masterpiece. A really gorgeous and very well-written and shot show, with incredible actors! It really is my #1 of all time. I wish I could write something as good but alas, I have no idea how to create a (good) story lol. I probably don't have the talent of these guys and it's very frustrating because my dream would be to write great things like this.

What the printer sound in Walkabout 33m:32s previews...

Am I reading too much into this or is the printer sound heard after the first "Colonel" Locke scene with Randy a foreshadowing of what happens to Locke later?

Does what Hurley say in this scene make sense? In terms of of time travel?

Am I the only one who finds this scene between Jin, Sun & Ana Lucia so sweet? I love how they make Ana feel welcomed! 🥰

Is lost worth watching if i’m not a huge sci-fi fan?

Just to be more specific, I’m generally not the biggest sci-fi fan especially if it gets too over the top. Some level is fine and I love fantasy movies but my friend recommended lost so now i’m just curious how much sci-fi is there in lost?

Edit: Forgot to mention that Disney + is the only streaming site that has it in my country and I cancelled my subnoscription a while back so that’s why I’m debating whether to resubscribe or not just so I can give lost a shot
