It’s an annoying Dope-ism. His dad used to yell “waaaaalt” alot, and people thought it was cool.

Umm…

I don’t think ANYONE thought Jackass Michael running randomly through the jungle and screaming “WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALT” was cool.

I hated the character so much I was just hoping the only time we saw him again was his mouldering corpse washed up on a beach.

He can’t be completely sociopathic. He felt at least a smidgen of guilt about robbing the mother of the dead son whose stash Miles pulled out of the wall. He spontaneously returned a $100 of it to her. That was a fraction of the total, so he’s still a thief. But the point is that he could have gotten away with all of it.

Remember that, as far as we know, Miles was just thrown in with a bunch of weirdos and freaks and set to this strange island. There’s no reason for him to have any particular attachment to any of his crew.

I think, like too few people on this show, Miles is playing a bigger game.

RE: The Mole, I’m pretty sure it’s going to turn out to be Fisher Stevens.

Fer crying out loud. Several posts about this? I rarely use nicknames. I typed the longer Walt once and then typed the actual spelling two more times in that post. Get over it. Some of you guys get so hung up on minutia of other people’s posts I don’t know how you can function on the internet. :rolleyes:
I guess I’ll just go back to ending every lost post with …

That dog knows things.

[sub]And if some of you don’t like it that’s tough, I’m never giving that one up … at least not until we see some Vincent POV episodes and get some answers on how much that dog knows.[/sub]

In the most recent video podcast, they make clear that Kate’s Aaron is Claire’s Aaron.

Well, that takes all the fun out of it! :slight_smile:

The night she killed him, he tried to get a little sugar.

Yes, Dopers thought it was cool and in. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have used it constantly. Try using “I can has” and see how fast you get jumped. Dopers are very good at giving you immediate feedback about what they think is cool or not.

Nobody thought it was cool that he did it. They thought it was annoying that he did it, and started mocking it. The mocking was what was cool.

Right, it’s an annoying Dope-ism people think is cool, not that people thought the character Michael was cool.

189

I don’t find it annoying.

Exactly, it’s not saying “Waaaaalt!” because I’m so cool, it’s saying “Waaaaalt!” because I hate the character so much and want to remind everyone why he’s such a completely unlikeable tool.

The other interesting thing is that they discuss some of what is and is not canon to the show. They say that the mobisodes and the Orchid Station orientation video are both in canon but that the “Find 815” ARG and the upcoming Lost video game are not.
[/QUOTE]

I’ve seen the “mobisodes”, but what is the Orchid Station orientation video? Was this something on the show, or a web site thing?

Locke with the grenade breakfast for Miles… heh. How very Jack Bauer of him.

They showed it at Comic Con. http://www.lostpedia.com/wiki/Orchid_Orientation_film

on the last podcast they talked about how it was important to the show, and closer to show canon than most of the other stuff

Is this posted online? The most recent one I see on the site is the one about Jack’s dad and the watch.

Those aren’t podcasts. There’s a different button on the website, but I find the lostpedia podcast page to be easier to use: http://www.lostpedia.com/wiki/Portal:Official_‘Lost’_Podcast

They’ve got links to transcripts, too.
