Jack Bauer Turns Fugitive On Final 24

May 25th, 2010 / No Comments » / by wuhtevah


After eight horrifying days, U.S. special agent Jack Bauer ended his career on television’s hit action show 24 by turning into a fugitive from justice and being forced to escape the country he loved. Talk about irony. He does everything for his country and what does he get?

Bummer. He should have let thousands of people die from possible terrorist attacks because even after his reluctance to help, the government shows the gratitude by being selfish and then going after him, sometimes dead or alive. Especially now, President Taylor’s selfish motives is what caused this turmoil (apart from the real Russian conspiracy that started this all in season 8).

The cliffhanger ending also will undoubtedly leave loyal fans guessing about the plot of a planned movie based on the show now that it has gone off the Fox network for good.

In Monday’s gripping final two hours, Bauer came within a razor’s edge of being executed with the tacit knowledge of U.S. president Allison Taylor (Cherry Jones), even as he grew closer to assassinating a Russian president who conspired to sabotage a historic global peace agreement.

If you had been following the latest season, then you know about the IRK President’s assassination attempt which kicked off the season. The attempt to save the IRK president failed and Bauer discovered the Russian — a reluctant partner in the peace treaty — was behind the assassination and working with former U.S. president Charles Logan, a very good actor portraying this selfish bastard of a politician.

Bauer threatened to unravel the conspiracy, and immediately became a target for murder. In the finale’s last minutes, President Taylor stopped Bauer’s assassination and advised him to flee the country, because the “Russians will be coming after you — and so will we.”

The final scene ended with an emotional goodbye between Bauer and his long-time trusted friend and colleague, Chloe O’Brien (yehey! no more grumpy face which seems to be her facial expression since the first episode that she appeared), before he disappeared off-grid.

So for 24 fans, I guess the next time we will get to see Jack Bauer will be in the upcoming movie.

More Devastation

May 25th, 2010 / No Comments » / by wuhtevah


While I had been content with not much seeing any terror news in news sites today, more and more disasters, devastations and accidents are happening all over the world. Man … is mother nature taking its revenge now? That oil spill the Gulf coast can only be blamed on one, BP themselves.

Building a platform without any measures to contain problems such as this. They cannot say that the explosion was an unforeseen event. They should have taken this into account that someday, sometime this would happen. And it finally did. Then look what happened, the problem has not yet been contained and it is only getting worse.

Really. It is getting worse by the minute and there is still no sign of progress. Even if they report some positive things, I still see those positives as small, nothing really effective or something. Poor animals, poor sea creatures and poor us! I wonder when this crisis will be solved. And when the time will come, what will happen to the people in BP?
