Chapter 3

While reading about The Matrix and how it involved its audience, it seemed very similar to the way Lost(my topic) did the same thing. It made the audience get involved to try and figure out the story line. I thought it was interesting and made some good points for my paper such as the idea of collective intelligence.

I was intrigued by the idea of the 'cult movie'. It is "a disconnected series of images, of peaks, of visual icebergs" while at the same time have many different central ideas that allows a wide variety of people to latch on to. This is also the same with Lost, there were many story lines, the hatch, love, bad guys, death, friendship, mysterious numbers, etc that allowed a wide audience to become attached.
