Post by: Black Tiger on March 03, 2007, 08:10:17 AM: Yeah, I noticed that license plate as well as the "nods" to Family Guy and Robot Chicken.

This was the episode where I finally gave up on the show altogether.

Anyway, I thought it was a great episode. Lost is definitely the best I've ever seen, be it tv series or movies.

Asian correspondent Trisha Takanawa (I actually called her that out loud before the Lost episode mentioned her name)and this-

I guess they're trying to reach out to all the net nerds who've trashed the show this season accusing the producers of stunt casting when they announced guest appearences by Bai Ling and Cheech Marin. They denied it, saying that the guest stars would be incorporated into important stories featuring major revelations. Guess they proved them wrong huh? :wink:

Well, if you watch the 90 second clip you'll see something very familiar at the end. :)

That looks familiar actually, I think I noticed that when I saw the movie not too long ago, but forgot about it right after.

A lesser known fact is that the truck he fights with for the whole movie has a reg plate that includes 5 EGA in it. :D
