I also appreciate the deep discussions regarding it and have found them to be great reads.<br /><br />The Magritte comparisons are dead on. I definitely got a Magritte feeling from watching the show, like when Jack would see the figure in the suit on the beach. <br /><br />The title of the episode "Deus ex Machina" also fascinated me. Given John Locke's (the philosopher) views on the self/personal choice and the application of some external machine that can affect the reality we experience, I chose to depict the island as other worldly and mechanical in some ethereal way. <br /><br />I have a strong feeling the newest prints are going to be awesome. I hope the ones who missed out can get some future ones.KEVINhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12145255631471686365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8704778258603713222.post-85409641317399116162009-10-07T15:45:48.286-04:002009-10-07T15:45:48.286-04:00NEW POSTNEW POSTZort70https://www.blogger.com/profile/07422271592523903824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8704778258603713222.post-74902929581807446912009-10-07T15:44:39.358-04:002009-10-07T15:44:39.358-04:00Here's a thought -

Although the only item that would make The Crash not specific to the Pilot, would be the Dharma symbol in the upper left corner.<br /><br />The Numbers is a bit more difficult, as I'm not aware of any one Hurley episode that includes all of those images.<br /><br />...just a thought...jeremyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00841164904501038542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8704778258603713222.post-33537992712089632252009-10-07T15:20:21.558-04:002009-10-07T15:20:21.558-04:00...because its very difficult to find dialogue of ......because its very difficult to find dialogue of Sayid knowingly lieing,while on the Island,, i perceive The Sayid character as Truth,,or the barer of truth,, and as we have seen..the Truth is often very painfull.

I don't really know what else to do. Hopefully he had fun in all this too. <br /><br />@sayid's girl and lost in london: thanks for the links (i had been looking for a high res version of the poster) Also I now saw that 1988 post slightly higher rez versions on their blog, which I understand is old news. <br /><br />As for the poll, it would be interesting to do one allowing people to choose more than one option as a lot of people may choose Locke's Secret or The Crash, etc. first, but have a second/third favorite that isn't one of those. Just a thought for the future.<br /><br />Nice of Olly Moss to let people know he's still got some and may be able to sell them next year.

Might make it a little bit more difficult to frame depending on where the signature and print number go.<br /> <br />For those who don't know about it, there is a website called http://www.expressobeans.com/ that is an art collector's community website mostly dealing with graphic art. I had checked it out hoping to find someone willing to part with "Locke's Secret" as it allows you to track ebay listings as well. There is at least one Smoke Monster print for sale on ebay. I don't want to launch into a diatribe about overzealous profiteering (I was, after all, willing to look for one on sale), but they also have a mechanism by which people may offer to trade prints. I've noticed some of the LOSTARG family listed so many of you are probably aware of the site.Sandman90https://www.blogger.com/profile/08311223739629925146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8704778258603713222.post-46430315174247664322009-10-07T10:31:09.939-04:002009-10-07T10:31:09.939-04:00Oh, roxanna, that's hopeful!Oh, roxanna, that's hopeful!Amy Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14363826528604660845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8704778258603713222.post-87650444368232059932009-10-07T10:30:39.041-04:002009-10-07T10:30:39.041-04:00I don't know who asked him, but this is from O...I don't know who asked him, but this is from Olly Moss on Twitter:<br /><br />Re: Locke Posters.
