What improvements are you really going to make to Empire Strikes Back, Hurley? Empire might be the best genre movie of the past thirty years. It’d make more sense to give George Lucas some help on Return of the Jedi because, as you yourself stated, no one likes Ewoks. The actual reason Hurley was writing Empire, I imagine, is so the Lost writers could use that cutesy play on words in the episode title (”Some Like it Hoth”). Last night was your patented “Let’s take a breather before the stretch run” episode. Lost needs these and, while right now some viewers might be a little disappointed, it makes watching the DVDs much more palatable. You can’t be in fifth gear all the time. I also liked that they didn’t beat around the bush – Miles was obviously Dr. Chang’s son. No need to stretch that mystery out. Besides the very last scene, which brought an old friend back into the fold (finally!), “Some Like it Hoth” was a simple character study. And the Miles-Hurley Comedy Hour.
