Watch Lost Season 1 and 2 Online

I am a huge Lost fan, and after looking back at all that I’ve written about the show in the past I noticed I never provided a comprehensive list of places to watch the Lost Season 1 or Season 2 online. If you are going to start watching Lost from the beginning make sure to clear your schedule completely because you won’t be leaving the house much – yes it’s that addicting. Lost is probably the best television show I’ve ever seen, definitely in my top 5. If you are looking to watch Lost from the beginning here are some places to start.
1. Netflix
Netflix is a great place to start watching ANY TV show including Lost. Netflix currently offers thousands of different TV shows and movies available to watch on your computer, or on DVD and Blu-ray Disk. If your not already a member you can get a 2 week free trial of Netflix here. After your trial period is up, Netflix plans start at around $4.99 a month but it’s well worth it.
2. ABC.com
The great thing about ABC.com is that have all four seasons of Lost available to watch. The downside to watching Lost Season 1 and 2 on ABC.com is you will be bombarded with stupid web commercials and that is why I recommend checking out Netflix before trying to watch Lost through the ABC site, however if you are really short on cash this way works well, you’ll just have to deal with the commercials.
3. WatchLostFree.com
This third party site is my backup for watching Lost. If for some reason you can’t access Netflix or the official ABC site I recommend checking out this site. The video quality is pretty poor because the episodes are uploaded to video sharing websites, however I guess it beats paying for the box set. This site also has Lost news and the latest trailers.

A new crazy action movie from Russia

It seems like Russian cinema has been on a roll lately when it comes to crazy action movies. While most wouldn't think of Russia as the type of place to provide jaw dropping action movies it certainly has over the past few years with films like Day Watch and Night Watch from director Timur Bekmambetov (Wanted).
The latest film to come from the booming Russian film industry is "Forbidden Reality", a film that looks like a weird hybrid of The Matrix if it was on acid.  There's always bound to be some confusion when you watch a trailer for a foreign film due to the obvious lanuage barrier but with "Forbidden Reality" it's really difficult to get a gauge of what the hell is going on since you have dudes dodging bullets, a guy tranforming into a white tiger, an otherworldly dimension, and scenes with tendril like things that look like they were ripped out of a hentai movie.
Thankfully a synopsis for the film is up and it sounds quite cool:

It's Official: Edward Norton is No Longer Bruce Banner / Hulk

Edward Norton - The Incredible Hulk

We have full confirmation on the surprising news that broke late last night courtesy of HitFix. The same site has received an official statement from Marvel Entertainment confirming that Edward Norton



will no longer be playing Bruce Banner, aka the Hulk, and that Marvel is looking for an "unknown" to use in The Avengers. We've "made the decision to not bring Ed Norton back to portray the title role of Bruce Banner in The Avengers. Our decision is definitely not one based on monetary factors, but instead rooted in the need for an actor who embodies the creativity and collaborative spirit of our other talented cast members."



Marvel president Kevin Feige, who wrote the message published on HitFix, adds: "The Avengers demands players who thrive working as part of an ensemble, as evidenced by Robert, Chris H, Chris E, Sam, Scarlett, and all of our talented casts. We are looking to announce a name actor who fulfills these requirements, and is passionate about the iconic role in the coming weeks." So that means we will find out at Comic-Con who will be in The Avengers line-up, including who will be replacing Norton in the role of Bruce Banner. So there we go. Even though I thought Norton did a damn good job his Hulk movie, he's being replaced. Thoughts ?
