Matthew Fox has vowed to stick to just movies when Lost comes to an end.

Fox reportedly said he wants to stick to movies because it allows him to spend more time with his family.

"I am not going to do television again. I have done two TV shows – Lost and Party of Five – that have each run for six years,” Fox said.

"When you add it all up, it is in the vicinity of 300 hours of television. I want to find a way to have more control over when I am working and when I'm not,” he said.

Fox said he didn't want to miss spending time with his children while they grew up.

"I am 42 and a father of two children... I don't want to find myself 10 years from now, feeling like I was an absentee father because I was so focused on my career," he said.

Well, Hollywood needs more family men, and it probably doesn't need more TV like Lost.

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
