The Lost Opening - What If JJ Abrams Thought Like Everyone Else?

Posted on Tuesday, April 8th, 2008 by Peter Sciretta

Matt Griswold found this video showing a remix of the opening of Lost, createdÂ in a parallel universe where JJ Abrams thought like everyone else who creates television shows. I think you will agree - Thank God he doesn’t. Although I am kinda digging the theme song…

I know, I know… We’re not a television site. But from time to time we post about sci-fi television shows. And it just happens this is the second post in 24 hours about Lost. Trust me, it’s just the way it happened, I didn’t plan for it.

Hilarious. But scary. Seriously, I got a totally bad vibe off of this and I'm so glad, that this is just for fun...

Steelo

that looked like '85

Andrew

It is a very good video but why don't you actually credit the guys at Weebls-stuff who actually made this?

Rather than giving the biggest and only credit to the guy who 'found' it?

Previously on Lost; There was a misunderstanding between the others and the losites at the Regal Beagle, now Jack and Sawyer have to dress up in womens clothing in order to trick the others. But, uh-oh, guess what happens when Ben finds out who's hidding behind those long golden locks...(laugh track)(Insert Ben looking into the camera with that Mr. Firley sour puss face...and neckerchief.)

WHAT THE FUCK

this is slash film not slash tv, if i wanted to learn about a stupid tv show i'd go to another site

stick to what you know peter and stop posting this tv bullshit.

I know this is a bit of an off topic discussion but I've been looking to get a Blogspot blog going for my friend an I to put our own films on and I'd love to know how you get that really clean flash-player for all your embedded content. Is it from a hosting site or do you have your own way of doing it?

I don't mind bits of TV news every once in awhile. It's not like they do it that often and they tend to stick to a limited couple shows (which I usually enjoy, which may be way I don't mind).

As for the clip, it was pretty accurate but horribly horribly wrong if it happened ahah.

And nice post Quenfis :P

Danatic

Lost news is always welcome...hilarious.

Salem

Mmm I like much better the College Humor version they post a Year ago... :P

@Hobbes thanks

@Eric Not sure how far you will get with the off topics. E-mail might be a better bet.

@ those irritated, skip that news and come back to the next post on film stuff. It's not like this site is saturated with TV junk. It's nice to mix it up once and a while. I wouldn't consider it a habit on this site. "There's just one thing Dude. Do you have to use so many cuss words?" :P

Larry Leonardo = worst name ever

Lost = best show ever

This Post = pretty comical at 8pm.

Plus it's been a pretty slow news day. Don't get your panties in a twist Leo.

Matt

Enjoyed it. Reminds me of the silly 80's recut from awhile back. Can't go wrong with a post on LOST. Thanks for sharing.

Antonio

That's funniness to the extreme. If he thought like others Lost's opening wouldn't be that bad but you get the picture. Genius.

Cameron Robinson

ahahhahaha awesome

Cuhud

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALT!!!

Christopher Edwards

I love that i want to know if there is a audio version of that i can have on my ipod to play when am at college and don't know where i am going.

Hey larry chill out man
Whats the mater? you dont get enough attention from your mommy so you want to get attention from everyone else by making a rude comment. You should be banned from Slash Film.
Not Im not some fat guy. Im skinny, have a life, have friends and I get girls, bet you dont. Yeah this was childish but so were you.

Surly

The theme song sounds like Driveshaft. Was that on their self-titled debut, or their weaker follow-up, Oil Change?

Steve

How long has it been since ANY TV show has had an opening sequence that looks like that?

I like to think that it's not just JJ Abrams that started this minimalist opening sequence trend... it's just a general move away from obviousness.

todd

done before. and better.
