5x07: Life Magazine cover

5x07_magazine_01.jpgSearching through the Hydra, Caesar comes across some old magazines. An Issue of LIFE dated April 19, 1954 catches his eye. The cover features an image of a Hydrogen Bomb exploding during a test. I suppose when a Hydrogen Bomb shows up on your island, it's good to do some research on the subject. Especially when some crazy guy from "the future" just tells you to bury it and everything will be fine. That issue also featured an article called "Julia in Jeopardy". Julia is Julia Adams (I believe), an actress in The Creature from the Black Lagoon - which the article reviewed, and of which we also see a pic of. The Black Lagoon being a "paradise that no one has ever returned from" could be seen as another thematic LOST reference. Also, as pointed out in the comments, the very same Julia Adams has appeared as an actress on LOST. Follow the jump for more!

I just find it curious that the Hydra was built in the 70's but they have a magazine from the 50's lying around?

Madam P, LOL....the "creature" is one of the Others that turned "purple" when he left the island.

LOL! "Hello, Mr. Widmore? Yes, I have the girl. Now what do you want me to do with her? Hydra Island, you say? All right, I'll meet you there..."

I can't believe no one's noticed this tie in yet! Julia Adams, the actress from The Creature from the Black Lagoon, was on LOST! She played one of the Others in the 3rd season premiere- the one that came to Juliet's door after Juliet burned her hand on the muffins if I'm not mistaken. Check her IMDB page if you don't believe me:
