Matthew Fox has been doing quite the press circuit for Speed Racer, which opens this week!! Here’s a couple of quick clips on his character and his plans to leave the TV realm after Lost!!
Matthew on character Racer-X…
“I’m a masked driver. There are many rumors around him. He’s very mysterious. Half the population thinks that he’s a bad guy and causes accidents and is dangerous, and half the population thinks he’s actually working for a secret organization that is combating corruption. Also, there are rumors that he’s protecting Speed Racer on the track, and that he might be Speed Racer’s brother who is supposed to have died years before in a fiery car-crash. So, in this film, we’re not really sure who he is.”
Matthew on Speed Racer sequels…
“I would definitely like to do another, just because the experience was so much fun. And if there were to be more Speed Racers, there would be a really cool arc to play.”
Matthew on Life after Lost…
“After Lost is over, I’m not going to do television anymore, only because it does take up so much of the year. I’ll either be doing films or doing nothing. Let me put it that way, [it’s] just because I’ve done two shows that have ran six years. I’m now doing films and a show, and it’s just not leaving a lot of time or control over my life and spending time with the people that I love. So after Lost is over, I would like a situation where, if I get involved in a project, after three months, it’s done. I’m unemployed, and I can either chose to stay unemployed or look for the next project.”
Jimmy Kimmel chats with Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof on Friday night. Jimmy is too funny!!
A couple of quick tidbits…
The reason that people DO get sick on the island? Perhaps because they get out of communion with the island…
Ben was only supposed to be on a couple of episodes. “This guy should be the leader of the Others,” they decided after bringing him on.
The Smoke Monster has different rules for different people. He killed Mr. Eko but let the soldiers go.
The Lost kiss in the season finale is better than any in Grey’s Anatomy!
There’s also a quick clip at the end with Locke, Hurley, and Ben trekking through the jungle. Locke tells Hurley how all the Dharma Initiative died and shows him the mass grave.

Filming Update - Spoilers
Ryan at Hawaii Blog has a fabulous new update regarding the Lost Season 4 finale!!
The episode is centered around the pivotal moment when the Oceanic Six get off the island. To tell that story, the Lost production crew headed out to Wai’anae, the arid, rural west coast of O’ahu.
The cast and their stand-ins took their direction on shore, then made their way into the ocean to film their scene. It was relatively simple in the narrative sense, but working on the water always makes things exponentially more complicated. Crew members had to keep a handle on a surfboard-riding director, hand held cameras and cameramen buffeted by the surf, a sound boat rocking on the waves, and keeping props from floating away. The primary prop? A large, octagonal life raft.
Action is called, and the stars get wet. Jorge Garcia, Yunjun Kim, Matthew Fox, Evangeline Lilly, Naveen Andrews and Henry Ian Cusick swim toward the raft through some debris. In several takes, Hurley — clutching a doll that’s most likely playing Aaron — helps pull Kate, Sun, and Sayid aboard. But Jack and Desmond take a little longer to reach them. And Desmond is holding someone who’s not moving.
Sounds intense!! Check out all the pictures at Ryan’s Flickr.
I saw an interesting theory that said that Sawyer would die because his daughter’s name is Clementine. That in itself means nothing, BUT for the fact that there is the song, Oh My Darling Clementine.
The song starts out:
In a cavern, in a canyon,
Excavating for a mine,
Dwelt a miner, forty-niner
And his daughter - Clementine
CHORUS:
Oh my Darling, Oh my Darling,
Oh my Darling Clementine.
Thou art lost and gone forever,
Dreadful sorry, Clementine.
And a couple of verses later…
Then the miner, forty-niner,
Soon began to peak and pine,
Thought he oughter join his daughter, Now he’s with his Clementine.
