Lost Wednesdays - The Day Before The Season 4 Finale

Lost - Michael Emerson as Ben LinusMan, I can’t even describe how excited I am for Lost’s 2 hour season finale tomorrow night. I have been trying to stay away from spoilers as best I can because I really don’t want to know anything about Thursday night’s extended episode, but no matter where I turn I keep hearing about one thing over and over…death. But that’s to be expected when it comes to Lost. If we’ve learned anything these past few years it’s that no one’s safe. Well, except for who’s still alive in this year’s Flash Forwards, the Oceanic 6 and Benjamin Linus.

Lost - Kevin Durand as Martin KeamyI’ve got two interesting interviews to pass along, the first is from USAToday and it’s with Kevin Durand, or as we all know him, the vicious mercenary Martin Keamy. You can read the interview in its entirety here. The second interview is from TV Guide and is with everyone’s favorite villain, Ben Linus. Ok, it’s really with Michael Emerson, the actor who plays Ben, but aren’t they really one in the same? You can read that interview here.

And lastly, thanks to Whitney over at Pop Candy for pointing me in the direction of this awesome YouTube clip. (link) It takes all of this season’s Flash Forwards and puts them into chronological order! The clip clocks in at a little under 9 minutes long, so it’s definitely not short, but if you love Lost and have ever wondered how everything in the future fits together then you definitely need to watch the video below:

The extremely popular Top Cow Productions comic book Witchblade seems to have more lives than its primary hero, the wielder of the extraterrestrial weapon known as The Witchblade, Sara Pezzini. The Marc Silvestri comic book has been around now for over 10 years, and after a failed attempt at a live action television show starring Yancy Butler as Sara Pezzini, comes word that a live action feature film entitled The Witchblade is in the works for a release in 2009.

While I’ve never really followed Witchblade, I’m really impressed with the longevity of the book and the many different mediums the book’s characters have been adapted to. Along with the live action television show and movie, Witchblade has also been re-imagined into a 2006 Anime television series and a line of Manga books. In a medium like comic books, which is predominately dominated by male characters, the staying power of Witchblade and its two prominent female characters, Sara Pezzini and Danielle Baptiste, is impressive and speaks volumes as to the richness of the Witchblade universe.
