Docarzt ‘Lost’ On the Island Part 3 - Cooper’s ‘Hood
In the world of Lost, not all locations are what they seem. For instance: Anthony Cooper’s house in Dues Ex Machina is a house alright:
But in reality, the house does not have a two car garage, or a security booth. Those were added to the house by the Lost crew. Why add a garage? Who knows. Artists. Pshaw.
Below is a familiar stretch of dock. This is the dock where the Galaga loads and unloads. Unfortunately, the Namaste sign was taken down.
Just a few hundred feet from the pier is the building that stood in as the bar where Eko went all Jason Vorhees.
And to give you a feeling of how often they re-use locations, the house also served as the interior of Jin’s father’s house in "The Glass Ballerina." The ‘clean’ spots are where the crew had hung shelves and sprayed ick on the wall.
It was an interesting place to visit. My guide, Ed Kos of Hummer Tours, told me there were indeed more than one VW buses on the grounds, which was kind of cool. Before I could snap more pictures of the location, the sub showed up to whisk us off to our next location.
sweet! Good stuff Doc!

Doc,
I’m really enjoying your picture essay! Can’t wait to see them all. Please don’t take this as a negative question, but were you able to get any cast/crew interviews? Were you able to get near the set during shooting? Or are you keeping things like that quiet so you can surprise us later? Glad you’re back and keep up the good work.

For a long time now I’ve been wondering when we’ll see ‘Lost’ reruns aired in syndication. Well I think i finally found my answer.
The G4 network is apparently planning on starting to air reruns(starting from the beginning) beginning soon. I don’t know if they have a date set yet, but they are going to be including webchats and forums for people to watch the episodes while they conjour up theories and find easter eggs all over again. They will also be doing this with Heroes starting this week. But I’m more concerned with Lost.
Even though I have S. 1 and 2 on DVD, i’ve always wanted to channel surf and unexpectadly come up a random episode of ‘Lost’ so I’m glad that this is just around the corner.
Thought I would let you guys all in if you hadn’t already heard. Namaste.

Pardon my ignorance… but what exactly are these photos giving us?
Horray! I have a photo of a Lost shooting location. What scoops do you have? What are you giving us that we can’t find on fifty other websites?
I’m not connecting the dots here…

You know, it’s really amazing to me that so many people seem to think that donating money to help Doc on his trip automatically meant they would recieve inside information.

I’m enjoying the pics, Doc. Maybe you need to turn the comments off for a while. At least until after naptime.
