I, for one, know that there are MANY exceptional videos made by loyal fans of Lost out here on this ol' internet. I'm sure you must have heard about music videos, or at least know what they are, right? Well Javi, what's your opinion on them..? Are they a sign to you that a show is something that will last forever in the fandom, or are you a little offended with the use of footage from a hard-made show to make these videos? This doesn't only apply to Lost, but to all the fandoms, like Buffy and Angel, which each also have a LOT fo videos to their names!
Anyway, if you DO like them, then I might be persuaaaaaaaded to show you a few exceptional ones ;) and if not, then I'll know that that kind of thing isn't such a great idea :'(

Anyway! Hope to hear from you soon! ADORE the show, and I can't WAIT until the finale (though it comes with the loss of my precious Lost for the year... *sniff* ) and please don't leave me hanging here!

well - i hope you liked the finale!

i don't have a problem with fan made stuff as it's not making money that would otherwise go to the people who make the show. fanfic, videos people make to share with each other, and all the other manifestatgions of fandom, are an exciting way for people to engage with the show, and i respect and appreciate that.

of course, i'm not a studio lawyer, they might think differently, but i like it when fans get passionate about a show i'm writing!

thanks for the question -
