OMG LOST. I watched it downstairs with my parents over dinner, and I freaked THE HELL out when they found Charlie, just because the whole blindfolded hanging thing was so gruesome. And as the efforts to resuscitate Charlie dragged on and on, my dog looked up at me and said, "Do you hear that?" And I said, "Uh... no?" And he said, "I felt a great disturbance on the internets, as if millions of fangirls suddenly cried out in extremely high-pitched terror and were suddenly silenced, because they had all fainted dead away."

(I did hear several thousand LOTR fans, however, yell out in unison near the beginning of the show, "NOT IDLY DO THE LEAVES OF DRIVESHAFT FALL!")

"NOT IDLY DO THE LEAVES OF DRIVESHAFT FALL!"

::dies:: I totally need an icon with that.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

I'll make one tomorrow once I'm out of class. I think someone said it last week (because really, what else can you say?), and I'm sure we're not the only ones.

[marciamarcia.livejournal.com]

I hate publication week and how it makes me miss my precious!!!

dammit.

please don't make me wait until TWOP posts the recap next Tuesday.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Don't worry--I'm going to have it up tomorrow (afternoon? evening?), after my exam.

[sparkythehamstr.livejournal.com]

Oh my god I'm glad I'm not the only one who flipped out. I was literally clutching my seat, trying not to cry. It's embarrassing now, but at the time I was SO freaked. Poor Charlie.

I hate Jack less now, though.

[lilgoala.livejournal.com]

Don't worry, you're not the only one. I was getting all teared up too.

death on my feet

[dhaunea.livejournal.com]

Yo. Did you notice his hands weren't tied? That sort of made me go 'hmmm'.

[lots42.livejournal.com]

Just another list of mysteries. Heck, one guy dragged off a physically fit young man and a very angry pregnant woman. I don't think one weird bit out of many indicates a conspiracy

"NOT IDLY DO THE LEAVES OF DRIVESHAFT FALL!"

Bwaaaaah!! yeah..this episode was waaay intense. And more little snippets about different characters...

and we have to wait HOW long until the next one??

[krazykarot.livejournal.com]

I love your icon! Much Ado About Nothing is my favorite play and that movie is one of my favorites as well :)

[moonfairyhime.livejournal.com]

*blushes* Yeah, okay, I was one of those screaming fangirls and my mother did scream up the stairs to make sure I was still alive after Charlie began to breathe again.

[ladyvoldything.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know what you mean. After he came around I was clutching my pillow and looking to the heavens with eyes closed. I was laughed at. I cared not.

You know how Jack kept beating Charlie's chest all frantic-like, with increasing dread and frequency?

Said chest-beating was about what it felt like on my end.

[sweetle.livejournal.com]

Heeeeee, so true.

I was half convinced that they couldn't kill him off, and half with my blanket over my eyes just in case.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

See, I had read where JJ Abrams said, "Dom is so unexpectedly popular that we won't kill Charlie off." I SAW publicity stills from the scene of him with the marks on his neck sitting by the campfire. I KNEW that he was supposed to live. But when he kept lying there, and kept lying there, and kept lying there, I started going, Oh my God, all of that was misdirection, wasn't it? OH MY GOD!

[bibsy.livejournal.com]

And he said, "I felt a great disturbance on the internets, as if millions of fangirls suddenly cried out in extremely high-pitched terror and were suddenly silenced, because they had all fainted dead away."
~~~
Totally. :)
The whole blindfolded hanging thing was the scariest part for me, too. Argh, why do we have to wait two weeks for a new episode?

[layered.livejournal.com]

*etc*

Seriously? I will never get the picture of Charlie hanging there out of my head. It will be burned in my memory forever.

And so glad to see everyone else picked up on the Lost/LoTR connections. XD It's so silly, because like... in the beginning, Locke was like "Footprints.. there was a struggle" and I was like "Haha, he's so Aragorn from The Two Towers."

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Heh, yeah.

The hanging bit was SO INCREDIBLY DISTURBING that it just made him possibly dying that much more upsetting. Like... you don't want to see someone die that way. That's just horrible.

[chereshae.livejournal.com]

That was seriously like seeing someone get hit by a car while you're standing there. In the middle of a building.

[lots42.livejournal.com]

Heck, that isn't an uncommon occurence in Senile Driverland, AKA Florida.

[sparklinblossom.livejournal.com]

I know, my first thought first thought after, 'OMG CHARLIE!' was'Boy, LJ is gonna light up over this episode.'

[rpp.livejournal.com]

Hee, mine too!

[xanimagusblackx.livejournal.com]

Yes. I actually thought for about 5 second that he was actually dead. Then Jack went back for another round and I was like, "Oh, okay. Dr.Jack's going to save the day." And I might have almost cried tears of relief had I been alone.

OMG, Ethan is going to try to take Claire's baby. And we thought that Danielle was batshit crazy!? Yikes....

[lots42.livejournal.com]

The Sad Music made me convinced it was going to be a repeat of what happened in the OR

[stepliana.livejournal.com]

I AM SERIOUSLY UNABLE TO HANDLE THIS.

Damn you, Lost writers. DAMN YOU. I should not get out of breath while sitting down, WATCHING A TV SHOW.

[undying-rose17.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I definitely freaked the hell out when I saw that too. I'm sure everyone else in my dorm thinks I'm insane. But I really don't care.

"I felt a great disturbance on the internets, as if millions of fangirls suddenly cried out in extremely high-pitched terror and were suddenly silenced, because they had all fainted dead away."

He has no idea. I don't even *like* Dom... my hobbit is and always has been Elijah/Frodo. But still, OMG DOM!! You can't kill DOM!!!

I had to pound my own chest a couple times to bring myself back.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Okay, seriously? The chest pounding was freaking me out. It was honestly really painful to watch him go on like that--I really feel like Kate was a surrogate for the viewer at that point.

[ella-enchanted.livejournal.com]

And Jack's dad did the Super Special Shoulder Squeeze that Aragorn and Legolas share to secretly convey their undying love for one another.

It totally went Rosemary's Baby in the end.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Heeeee. No wonder I went "Ewww" when he squeezed his shoulder, then. It felt really appropriate for some reason I couldn't put my finger on.

I KNEW they were after Claire's baby. They are totally going to sacrifice the kid to the Polar Bear God. I just know it.

[elbiesee.livejournal.com]

I'm no fangirl, but I was lying there thinking "but... but... what about... Babymama... he's supposed to... love Babymama..." I breathed when he did.

And was anybody reminded of Prince Humperdinck's rehashing of the "great duel" when Locke was going over the "struggle"? Or was it just me? (Locke's not a pig or a buffoon...)

LOLOL!!!

[cleojones.livejournal.com]

"but... but... what about... Babymama... he's supposed to... love Babymama..."

Best, quote I've read on this ep. :-)

[pescivendolo.livejournal.com]

Haha. I was watching that, and I yelled to my fiance in the other room "They just lost the Hobbit! There goes their fanbase!"

Then, like 2 hours later, "Hobbit's back! Guess they weren't that dumb."

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

For real--there's "shocking" and there's "dumb."

[http://users.livejournal.com/_waterlilies/]

Gah! I haven't seen the episode yet, but I clicked the link going "Eh, it's probably nothing huge." "Probably nothing huge" turned into a frantic 30-second scramble through the comments to make sure Charlie hadn't bit the big one. >.<

Well, at least I can do the thing to my mom that I tried to do with The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: when Alan was shot/stabbed/whatever, my mom was all "Oh my God! Is he dead?!" and I was all "Yeah. He died. You didn't know that's how it ends?" TOTALLY MESSING AROUND. I had no idea how the movie ended. I -fully- expected him to like, wave a magic wand (rifle?) and sign a deal for a sequel. But no. >.< She still won't let it go, either.

[the-wanlorn.livejournal.com]

...Alan's not really dead. Remember at the end when the dude was doing that stuff around his grave? That's cuz he's TOTALLY COMING BACK FOR A SEQUEL!!!!!

I swear, I'm not delusional... :-P

[fmith.livejournal.com]

I cried.

"NOT IDLY DO THE LEAVES OF DRIVESHAFT FALL!"

That.Is.So.Win.

Us geeks have been sayin' that since last week, where were you? XD

[fangirlsays.livejournal.com]

(I did hear several thousand LOTR fans, however, yell out in unison near the beginning of the show, "NOT IDLY DO THE LEAVES OF DRIVESHAFT FALL!")

BAHAHAHA I totally said that. Actually I think what I said was "Not idly does the L of Charlie fall..."

*is dork*
