Lost: LaFleur

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

More Lost? Another great episode from what is turn­ing out to be the best sea­son of Lost. This week we got to see the lim­bos finally stop flash­ing, and how Jin got to be wear­ing a Dharma uni­form in last week’s episode. Despite all that cool stuff, my favorite lit­tle moment was right after John moved the island, when the limbo’s got a glimpse of the huge Egypt­ian statue, most likely the four-toed one spot­ted ear­lier by Jin, Sun, and Sayid. Judg­ing by the ears, I would guess that we have a dog or a cat here. It is most likely Anu­bis, god of the under­world and the one respon­si­ble for trans­port­ing the dead to after­life. It appears to be hold­ing an Ankh is its right hand, the same sym­bol that Paul had on his neck­lace (see below). Other gods it may be: Bastet, Set, or Sekhmet (all very unlikely). And I’m sorry– I’m just going through a major Egypt phase right now.
