The Michael Emerson Appreciation Thread - Lost Community Forums - Official Spoiler-free Lost Fansite

***D-Roc*** · 06-17-2008, 06:42 PM

Welcome to M.E.A.T..

I feel that this is necessary, even if i'm the only one to post in it. He's such a phenomenal actor and portrayer or subtle emotions and the unspoken word. I knew of his work before LOST, yet I also didn't know of him (if you get what I mean).

I'm far from a fan-boy or a worshipper of false idols, but I certainly respect the talent that this guy has, and through this thread I hope to share with you just how amazing a performer and how charming an individual he is.

As I said, feel free to chip in if you ever have any M.E. appreciation, news, info to share.

I have seen him in roles prior to Lost however it is his work in Lost that I appreciate. I love his work as Ben, which has added massively to the show and it will inevitably be Lost that will 'immortalise' Michael. A little disappointed it was not the Eric Clapton version as after 48 seconds this version is a little harsh on the ears.

The only think I saw ME in before Lost was in Saw, and he was brilliant in it! He's such a great actor in whatever role he takes on, and always seems to be so intense and all encompassing of his characters.

I remember him in Saw. Emerson is brilliant in it, although the film scared me, it was a few years ago that I watched it.

Apart from that I've only seen him in Lost, but he's an excellent actor.

All Lost aside a just think he is really good actor as his career suggests particularly with his stage acting and he has won an emmy

I was able to view around 2 minutes of the first video before my PC began to freeze, though it was rather amusing.

The second video was very intriguing, though you have to feel sorry for his character wanting all that attention. He sounds very different also.

On a more positive note M.E.A.T
