Evangeline Lilly -- the Next Angelina Jolie? (Doubtful)
Evangelina Evangeline Lilly arrives at the Cannes screening of 'Looking for Eric' on May 18. (Reuters) Evangeline Lilly, who is likely only known to fans who have watched the overacting little imp ham her way through the past five seasons of "Lost" as pouty Kate Austen, says she's not a big movie star by choice. I couldn't possibly sum up Lilly's self-absorbed delusional over-estimation of herself better she does. In the June issue of Women's Health, Lilly says: "[The 'Lost' producers] have seen that I haven't picked up on the opportunity to become a big movie star. It frustrates [them] that they've given me this chance to become the next Angelia Jolie ... Sure, I'd love to be her, but just the humanitarian side." Ahahahahahhaa. And we thought she'd hit maximum self importance when she said in 2007 that she almost left "Lost" because she was sick of being...

'Lost' Dueling Analysis: 'The Incident, Parts 1 and 2'
In which Jen Chaney and I wade through time and space to bring you our final show analysis of the season. Read, digest, add your thoughts -- then join us at 3 p.m. ET for the "Lost" Hour live chat. Hungry for more? Visit "Lost" Central. What lies in the shadow of the statue? Jacob (Mark Pellegrino). (ABC) Jen: Liz, I have to be honest. I don't know where to start. When the island maybe blew up at the end of the episode, my brain sort of exploded with it. I don't know what to think going into the final season. But let's focus on the things we learned. We learned that Vincent is alive and well, as are Rose and Bernard. (Bernard looked tanned, rested and a lot like Charlton Heston in "The Ten Commandments.") We learned that Jacob is a lot like the old woman who lived...

'Lost' Countdown -- Gearing Up for the Finale
John Locke (Terry O'Quinn) heads out in search of Jacob. (ABC) Depending on when you're reading this, tonight's "Lost" season five finale is hours/minutes/seconds away. Here are a few options depending on how much time you have: Hours to go? Read today's Style section Q&A with "Lost" gods show runners Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof, then settle in to listen to the entire 30-minute plus interview captured on audio. What will you hear in that audio? Lindelof addressing rumors about his and J.J. Abrams's "Dark Tower" adaptation, Jen getting schooled in the ways of asking true-false questions (she was feeling a little dyslexic that day) and, finally, an answer to the question, "Ben Linus: A little bit good or entirely bad?" (Okay, a sort of answer to that question.) Join Jen Chaney and Liz Kelly on Wed., May 13 from 5 - 8 p.m. at Adams Morgan's The Reef...

'Lost' Dueling Analysis: 'Follow the Leader'
In which Jen Chaney and I ask you to grab your box of Dharma-brand vanilla cookies and settle in for this week's penultimate season 5 analysis. Then lull yourself out of the cookie-induced sugar coma for this afternoon's "Lost" Hour chat at 3 p.m. ET. In the meantime, visit "Lost" Central or make your plans for next Wednesday evening's "Lost" Happy Hour. John Locke (Terry O'Quinn) leads the way to Jacob. (ABC) Liz: Last night's episode was all about trust. Or the lack thereof. John doesn't trust Alpert. Alpert doesn't trust John. Kate has no faith in Jack and Jack has placed his trust -- wisely or not -- in Eloise Hawking. And Pierre Chang has thrown all caution to the wind and placed his bets on the (now dead) Daniel Faraday's prediction of an island catastrophe. Perhaps none of us should be trusting Locke after all, but first...

'Lost' Dueling Analysis: 'The Variable'
In which Jen Chaney and I return to our favorite pastime life's work, analyzing the best show ever. Please visit our shrine to said show, here at "Lost" Central. Then join us at 3 p.m. ET for a continuation of the discussion in the 3 p.m. ET "Lost" Hour chat. Daniel Faraday (Jeremy Davies) prepares to meet his destiny. (Getty Images) Jen: The question that has plagued us all season -- popped up repeatedly in these dueling analyses, frequently appeared in our discussions and prompted more "Back to the Future" references than any of us can count -- was resolved in tonight's episode. And it happened when our jittery but newly purpose-filled Daniel Faraday spoke to one young, chocolate-addled Charlotte Staples Lewis and said these words: "I didn’t think I could change things. But maybe I can." When we surmised on numerous occasions that maybe this whole time travel...

'Lost' Dueling Analysis: 'Some Like It Hoth'
Miles (Ken Leung) ponders his daddy issues. (Image Courtesy GetLostPodcast.com) In which Jen Chaney and I discuss our awesome theories about "Lost," a show we love so much we talk about it ad nauseum. Oh, and we even created this obsessive-friendly "Lost" hub. And we'd appreciate it if you'd join us at 3 p.m. ET to help feed our obsession in the "Lost" Hour chat. Liz: We're moving closer to "the incident." We saw Hurley's fateful numbers embossed on the hatch door. We were teased with the tantalizing revelation that Ilana and her henchmen work for neither Widmore nor Ben Linus. And we're off next week. But we have to start with Miles. We finally found out his back story, thereby filling the empty hole in my soul. But where the producers worked overtime to answer our time continuum questions last week, they kind of left us to work...
