Happy LOST LIVE Day - A Second DCaaPB Image 128

It is LOST Live day and early this morning in the UK / yesterday evening in the US, the Damon Carlton and A Polar Bear site was updated with the second of the three images.


The image appears to be of Sawyer, reading a book of course, sitting in the remnants of an Oceanic 815 jet engine.

Thanks to Andrew for being the first to email about the new image.

Morning all, it's going to be quite a LOST day today.

MiddayShadows said...

Hilarious. My Pavlovian response to Zort going to bed is still to look for something cool to be announced.

*Spoilers Ahead* for those who still havent seen the episode this week:

My take on the 'panic' over this episode is that it occurred with only 3-and-some-odd hours left of the series. I agree with AmyLynn in one respect and that is we arent obligated as fans to drool and fawn over every moment of the show as though it is all manna of the Gods. But dragging David Fury's idiotic and irresponsible remarks from six years ago , *after* he had , ahem , 'parted ways' with the show isnt really fair, or even relevant. The 5 1/2 seasons of quality storytelling after he left wasnt a fluke.

I do have some qualms with the episode, some of them huge, but I like ChrisL's philosophy for this final season best here: I am along for the ride and am interested in watching these storytellers tell this tale, and I am going to enjoy this ride to the end for what it is. Seriously , I think a lot of LOST peeps are in serious danger of spoiling all this for themselves. My criticisms are tempered with the fact that I still liked a lot of what the the episode did have to offer.

After a couple of days of processing, I can see this episode a little better for what it is. It wasnt poor per se, but it could have been a lot smarter in execution , and even more so in regard to it's placement during the season. I dont think we know enough or care enough about J. and MIB as characters for them to warrant a standalone episode without their stories being interwoven or given more of a direct connect to our main characters. I still dont feel like I have a firmer grasp of their motivations than before this episode. I got it already: crazy mother issues makes MIB want to get off the island so stand out of his way or else! This ep needed to provide more story,as well as more answers. Having said that, did anyone else get the feeling Darlton were talking to US when mother said "Every question I answer will simply lead to another question?" I let them have that, but by about half way through I thought 'I dont care Darlton, quit alluding and start telling.' More about mothers origins, more about the time period, more about what culture the shipwreck was from. More. More about what happened
to Jacob leading up to the present. I thought it was preposterous that it ended in the cave- I thought there was still half an episode left!

Still I enjoyed seeing a lot of what was shown in -just wish the ep dug deeper and connected more effectively with our characters and the rest of the season. I know I my frustrations would be less sharp if it was actually episode 4 or 5.

And you know, after this one, I feel pretty confident still that the next few hours are going to be great.

4th! :]

ChrisL said...

Damn I wanted 4th.... Oh well... 5th.

Good post Midday.

Mark Englert said...

Woo! Can't wait for LOST LIVE tonight! I'm considering closing my eyes during the preview of the finale... I didn't wait THIS long to be spoiled right at the end.

Also, I thought Across the Sea was a great episode. I don't need every detail spelled out... if you read the bible and all you can think about is where this "god" guy came from and what his motivations are exactly, I think you're missing the point.

Weinbeeezy said...

@Mark... Meeting up with us today?

John LaHair said...

A proper Good Morning To You All Everybody!

Fine with whatever post number this is (although could have waited until #8) because it's a honest to goodness all-new DCAAPB LOST poster day! :)

Heading to the gym to for an F5 workout. Have a GREAT day!

John LaHair said...

It's fate... it was post #8 Now if I could only be so lucky to win the lottery or at least score a poster.

Safe travels to all those heading to LOST LIVE & have fun!

Lisa-Maladylis said...

yes but 10th is the best ! dances around saying 10th lol good morning all !

ChrisL said...

11th is dry and dull :-(

ChrisL said...

Morning Lisa yells 12th though!

Amy Lynn said...

Have a great time for everyone going tonight!

About the boy in black

What do you understand about death if you can still see dead people?

MJCarp said...

and that makes me 15? woot! a number

Martyn said...

16th.

Really loving that sawyer poster! Think I'm decided now that nothing will top that!

MJCarp said...

I'm assuming that 'further instructions' will appear with the third image? Heck, how about a link to LIVE coverage!

Martyn said...

@Lotto...

That's what I'm hoping for, just a live stream of the event along with a batch of new posters. Wonder if there will be a one of one that's signed by the entire cast for like $3000. Now that would be worth the price.

MJCarp said...

Martyn! You won the Lotto! lol

It is titled "Lost Live"!

MJCarp said...

I'm also curious about payment methods? If this is going through Gallery 1988, GoMerch, etc. I suspect some of us need access to our accounts (which we don't have anymore), or you need to establish one with Gallery 1988? Any thoughts.

Amy Lynn said...

It'll be interesting to see when these go on sale. You would think it wouldn't be during the event, since everyone in Royce Hall will be without any way to buy them, since they are confiscating phones and such.

Ray said...

Just saw on foursquare that my hotel is next to nakatomi plaza - I need to take a photo.

@Team Jack - do you know where the will call window is at Royce hall so I know to go to wait at the right place?

Team Jack said...

Ray, everyone I know who picked up tickets went to the UCLA events ticketing window I believe, this is over by parking structure #6 and behind the Alumni center. Although I think the close at 4pm, so I'm not sure if you'd then pick up tickets at Royce. I know they have a box office window in front, just never seen it open. I'll ask when I get to campus.

Am reposting this since it was at the very end of the last thread:

We'll be updating all day from the LOST Live Event at UCLA tomorrow! Follow my Twitter: @nerderific for tweets and pics. I will also be uploading videos to the UStream channel I created: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/lost-live-ucla-5-13-10

And, here's the info on our new site:
It's a thank you site to Darlton and a place for Losties to share their memories. We've got a couple projects going on plus two different contests!

Right now we are running a contest to give away two Orchestra section tickets to the SOLD OUT Jay and Jack Finale Party at the Orpheum!

We also will be running an art contest through August for some nifty Lost prizes! :D

Come check us out: WE LOVE LOST! http://welovelost.wordpress.com

Ooh, thanks for that link, LT!

ChrisL said...

Nice link LT, thanks.

@Team Jack, really appreciate you keeping us all updated. So excited for all of you attending. It's going to be an outstanding night.

ChrisL said...

Those rehearsal video's are awesome!

Ray said...

@Team Jack: people picked up their tickets for tonight from that office? Hmm maybe I'll go check it out when they open to see if I can get mine.

Anyone know if we can bring backpacks?

MJCarp said...

Adding "Just Progress" and "The Candidates" to the collection this morning. The photo is not so great . . . the prints ARE!

Brandon Otto's Lost prints

Happy LOST Live Day

Ray said...

I'm heading out for the day sans phone - see some of you there tonight!

MJCarp said...

Ray, have a great day!

ChrisL said...

Have fun Ray!

The Kharma Initiative said...

Olly Moss' Evil Dead print for Alamo Drafthouse went on sale 5 min ago:

link.

Shirts available too.

mistersh0w said...

@LT - WOW the rehearsal vids are great, but if you're going tonight there are some light "spoilers" as to what exactly will be played, and what certain people will be wearing while they play it... ahem.

LOVE that they're rehearsing my favorite piece from the UP score!!!!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE play some UP!!!!! Also, if he could sneak in some "ROAR!" from Cloverfield that would be AMAZING!! Oh right, it's about LOST... My bad.

ChrisL said...

So do we have a definitive list of the Argers attending?

Martyn said...

Old news now but happy to say I received my LU diploma today, complete with post it note. It survived international postage, which is quite impressive!

Looking forward to tonight, roll on 3am!!!

mistersh0w said...

ME is stevezaragoza

ChrisL said...

Congrats Martyn!

MJCarp said...

Martyn,

. . . and that rhymes!

congrats to you. ohhhh a long night ahead.

Weinbeeezy said...

@mistershow.. Wait your Steve zaragoza?! I thought I was!

mistersh0w said...

@Weinbeeezy - Listen, we can ALL be Steve Zaragoza ok?

Amy Lynn said...

Guys, as fun as it would be to follow the twitter feed, please don't bring in your phones.

Martyn said...

lol, oh yeah, it does kind of!

How did you get an iPad without a camera?

AHHH! multiple post attack!! Sorry, Blogger is being lame...

mistersh0w said...

@Amy Lynn - The iPad doesn't come with a camera... It would be to awkward to hold that monster up to take a pic anyway... 2nd or 3rd gen may have one, but it's all rumors...

mistersh0w said...

@LT - Thanks for the kind words! They were kind words right?? I had fun "entertaining" everyone at the G88 event!

Tonight will be equally as fun, without all the sleeping in the street-ness of G88!

Amy Lynn said...

Ah, okay. If it has a phone or any kind of recording device, you might be out of luck.

mistersh0w said...

@Amy Lynn - That's the thing, it has no camera, BUT a little known fact is, it has a microphone... But not many people know this.

Also, if I'm able to get it into the theater, and can connect to a wifi network, I'd be able to post here, or twitter...

Anyone know if there's wifi access in the building?

ChrisL said...

I would probably not risk taking my lovely new iPad (if we had them in the UK )

mistersh0w said...

Although I just realized, I probably don't want to try and use a device with a GIANT glowing screen at all in that theater... Never mind.

Weinbeeezy said...

Haha my iPhone will be glued to my chest like iron man. So when it does glow it won't look abnormal... This should work right?

Martyn said...

Team Jack has already started tweeting and filming stuff. Basic info like the line that is already started and a photo of the staff ID badge, which is pretty cool!

Weinbeeezy said...

From Jensens Twitter... You coming to LOST Live tonight? Its more than just posters from Tyson/Givens and we'll b in the courtyard for ticket and non ticket holders

Zort70 said...

Have fun tonight those that are going and those staying up. I'm not sure I'll make it tonight.

Team Jack said...

If you were following my tweets Mistersh0w, you'd know there are gonna be metal detectors at the doors. ;) Beeezy you follow me, aren't you keeping your friend informed?! Lol FYI Ray is already here in line with me, he has no phone so he wanted me to tell you. Also, there WILL be security dudes with sensors to monitor electronic devices. So don't bother unless you wanna get kicked out. ;)

Martyn said...

Not just posters, ey? What time do you reckon the posters and non-posters booth will be set up? Can't wait to see what they have to offer!

Team Jack said...

Not sure on details. I have no idea if things will be live online at the same time. I suspect not and that we'll have something exclusive like the shirts were but not 100% sure. Martyn, if I am able to buy enough, I am getting extras with you, Latha, KI & MIB at tops of the list. I'll keep you posted. Most info will be tweeted so check there. May also DM you directly later once more info comes out.

Martyn said...

If you DM me, i'll get it as a text. I have you set up to roll to my phone but it's missing the odd tweet out here and there.

mistersh0w said...

@Team Jack - Is your twitter name the same here?

If so consider us pals!

MiddayShadows said...

ChrisL , thanks at least one person thought so!

Have big fun tonight at the event, all attending. Lookin' forward to hearing all about it ...

The Kharma Initiative said...

Team Jack is @Nerderific on twitter. Add her to your lists!

Cosmically Yours

Eugene said...

TKI - Thanks. I didn't relaize Team Jack is @Nerderific. She's doing an awesome job.

John LaHair said...

Much Dharma love to all that are there! Team Jack is ROCKIN!!!

Martyn said...

She truly is. First in line as well. Awesome! Hurley is the third poster!

andalone said...

Team Jack/@Nerderific really is doing a fabulous job!

The Kharma Initiative said...

@comixguru is tweeting up a storm as well!

Cosmically Yours

The Kharma Initiative said...

Shirts on sale too.

John LaHair said...

Looks like no clues needed to solve where & what the merchandise is going to be. Thanks Team Jack & Comixguru!!!:)

Wonder if those of us that are still on the "island" will have a chance to purchase via DCCAPB once merchandise goes on sale at event. Fingers crossed.

MiddayShadows said...

Team Jack is doing a really great job...

Martyn said...

*yawn* Wow, i'm so going to regret staying up this late. Up in 7 hours for work :s

Worth it!

Mark Englert said...

@Weinbeeezy Not sure when my wife and I will get there... probably around 630-7pm. Not much time for lounging these days.

"We've got work to do." :)

John LaHair said...

John LaHair said...

Definitely Hurley -

SHE ROCKS!

The Blot said...

I'm loving the 3rd print! Hurley and a Dharma van, what more could you ask for!?!

Really though, I'm just glad the 3rd print wasn't Kate looking out at the sea.

MiddayShadows said...

MiddayShadows said...

Same deal as before. $50 each. Limited to 300.

John LaHair said...

@MiddayShadows - Sweet! I think. Where was it posted?

Martyn said...

Thank goodness they're not $200. Can deal with $50.

@The Blot...

Totally agree but would love one that just shows off Kate's beauty.

John LaHair said...

Have decided if I'm lucky enough to get a print.. It will be Jack and Jack only. It's how it started. :)

MiddayShadows said...

@ JPL - that info came from Team Jack's live feed. Pretty solid info it seems, as the frames the prints were in are clearly labelled... (small chance that the price might be different when it's avail online?)

John LaHair said...

Totally missed her last update. Bouncing from site to site. Trying to get a little office work done as well. :) Thanks!!!

Martyn said...

Question, are they showing the whole of next weeks episode tonight or just a small preview of the first ten minutes?

MiddayShadows said...

No prob, JPL!
Good question Martyn - totally forgot about that...

geekboypress said...

Hey guys, got a few of these left and wanted to spread the word in case you didn't get a chance to grab em:

http://www.etsy.com/listing/39639222/dude

http://www.etsy.com/listing/40356843/benry

I take requests too!

Patrick said...

The "Not Penny's Boat" t-shirt is labled as having been done by one Olly Moss.

Martyn said...

In addition, a special preview of the penultimate episode will be screened immediately after the concert.

chaseter said...

3 at $50 each is close to $200! I guess after shipping it will be that. I was just relaying info I was told. Anyways, good too see artists twittering about their upcoming involvement with the new series. I think this new series is going to top the previous one.

-charter

Martyn said...

Correct, Not Penny's Boat is an Olly Moss tee design.

He's become super high profile since Locke's Secret. Should we all be asking for royalties or something?

Patrick said...

@chaseter, who's twittering about this second series?

Martyn said...

@Patrick...

It's been long known there will be a second series, and Team Jack confirmed it by noticing a sign saying Coming Soon to the Website!!!

MiddayShadows said...

Something new of Olly's to track down now. According to Team Jack these shirts are all limited too. I'd take a medium!

Just Thinking said...

Ahh-TJ going silent till after event!

John LaHair said...

Question to you all everybody...

What do you think the odds that merchandise (or posters) will be available tonight to buy for us that are stuck on the island & not in L.A.

@Martyn.... it's way past your bed time. ;)

UPDATE from Nerderific...

Jensen was stressed. A lot. Won't give details yet on future sales. Will update later. #dcaapb #lostlive

Poor guy has got to be going crazy. :(

Eugene said...

@JPL...GoMerch tweeted "LOST fans...Got shirts to match your posters?"

I don't think they would tease if we could only get them at the venue. Fingers crossed. I really want a shirt.

John LaHair said...

@Eugene - that would be a GREAT thing!!!

So while we wait... going to catch up on this week's V and Happy Town (a most excellent show). Reminds me a bit of Harper's Island w/ a bit of Twin Peaks thrown in... really enjoying it!

Patrick said...

@Martyn, yeah, but I took that to mean these 3 new Tong prints would be up, not necessarily a whole new series.

chaseter said...

There is a whole new series.

Just Thinking said...

OK chas- come on- should we stay up all night?

chaseter said...

I honestly don't know if they will release these online tonight. I do know that there will be quite a few more prints popping up the next couple of weeks.

geekboypress said...

Like what? Same artists as before? New ones? How many? Just need somethin' to keep me goin' while I wait!

chaseter said...

Then go to twitter!

geekboypress said...

Who should i follow to get all the new info?

Patrick said...

Jensen tweeted a few minutes ago, "JensenClan88 DamonCarltonAndAPolarBear.com on Friday - Finality."

Just Thinking said...

well- for me it's already Friday.

Now he says his Mom is selling merch at the event-so the tables outside must open-event over per Jo's tweet.

MiddayShadows said...

Quite the collection of photos of the cast who showed up this evening here

ryan said...

Hi guys, first time poster. UCLA is my hood and just got back from the show and it was amazing.

So i got some extra swag if anyone wants to hit me up. I bought all 4 posters but i think i'm only going to keep the hurley one. if anybody wants the "i'm with jacob", sawyer, or jack one. The posters aren't mint. I think they were rolled up in a hurry so on the back there are roll marks but on the front it looks fine. Should flatten out.

Also have a tshirt of the smoke monster in the front and locke on the back if anyone wants it.

Email me at sjsharks26 [at] me.com if you're interested or want pictures. not looking to make money on it. I'm thinking like $65 shipped for the posters and $35 shipped for the tee. If you're in socal and just want to come pick it up, you can buy it at cost.

John LaHair said...

So what I'd miss... just woke up? :) @ryan - sent you an email.

ChrisL said...

Team Jack, thanks for the great updates!

Martyn said...

@Team Jack...

She was fantastic last night, a mega dega thanks for all the coverage you gave us!

@Ryan...

That's pretty cool of you. You got a pic of the 4th poster by any chance? I'm with Jacob?

Unknown said...

Wow. Malcolm and Sterling look so much older compared to the time we first saw them.

ObFuSc8 said...

Hey ARGers!

Would love to see new prints but really not sure if my nerves can handle a whole second series. Seriously.

Midday-- I just tweeted a link to Life with those arrival pics.

Steve Aoki is DJing the VIP party and I retweeted the pics he posted too.

ryan said...

hey guys, posters are sold. sorry i didn't have one for everybody! i'll put up pictures of the smoke monster tee shirt tomorrow, it's sized medium.

ryan said...

oh and lots of you emailed me about the jacob poster. i think it'll be the easiest one to get if they drop online. the run is 815.

ObFuSc8 said...

Has anyone else checked the original DCaaPB site and the new one? The new one wont load at all and all I get on the original is the privacy/rules links.

Unknown said...

Site is updated but nothing is for sale yet. They have the four posters, a bunch of shirts, and eight spots that say "Quarantined" most likely for more prints.

Zort70 said...

Hi all, a NEW POST with a few updates from last night.

Unknown said...

This is the description of the new series on the bottom of the new page:


In celebration of LOST's final season and to bring finality to the LOST poster series,8 top designers and artists, who are also fans of the show, were commissioned to create artwork celebrating top moments from the 6th and final season. 4 artists you may recognize, and 4 new artists to the campaign, created labor intensive, hand-pulled screen prints, limited to an edition of just 550, with 500 available to the public through our website. Once this limited edition print has sold out, they will never be printed again. Celebrate finality with this unique, signed and numbered piece of history.

kushmeja said...

Tong's Lost Live Posters are Up now for those interested. Also the I'm With Jacob and shirts too
