Your blog has helped, thank you. I have run into it a couple of times today and will perhaps take a note of it. You may perhaps really want to update wordpress as there is a brand-new release readily available at present!

Your blog has helped, thank you. I have encountered it once or twice now and will probably bookmark it. You may possibly really want to update wordpress as there may be a brand-new release readily available at this point!

This blog aided me somewhat in narrowing down some issues with the latest release candidate, Why do they often leave out vital information when they release a new version? It may be minor to them but not to me. I’m sure we’re not alone either.

I THINK YOUR ALL WRONG! The reason no women names are on the list, is that they are all the BLACK SMOKE MONSTER CANIDIDS!

The Myth of Lost theory is definitely the most plausible theory on Lost I’ve read to date. I also completely vibe with Marc’s notion of our real world being an illusion. Many cultures have held this belief and coincidentally, there are references to many different cultures on the island (even more come Season 6 according to spoilers).

Not sure if this has been brought up elsewhere, but the Myth of Lost theory when combined with some prospective S6 story lines, bears a striking similarity to the David Lynch mystery “Mulholland Drive”. We all know Twin Peaks was a major influence on the writers, but is it possible the Lost follows Mulholland Drive’s plot line (stop reading here if you’ve never seen Mulholland Drive and plan to)…

Mulholland Drive consists of 3 phases:

1. A dream which we initially believe is reality. Many clues are given during this sequence that something strange is happening, but the viewer just assumes that this is just how the film is (e.g. Lost S1-S5?)

2. Without giving us an immediately evident clue, the movie shifts to actual reality (e.g. the “alternate reality” scenario that starts in Season 6 Episode 1 at LA”X”)

3. We slowly realize the distinction between 1 and 2, but its not certain until the very end.

Let’s not forget that there are obvious and blatent Stephen King book placements in the series as well. I remember more than one scene of Julliette holden a Stephen King book in a manner as to blatently show the author’s name to the viewer.

My question would be something along the lines of Widmore. If the theory is that the Island and its inhabitants are being reprogrammed, or changed in some way… who/what is Charles Widmore? He has been there before, and he is rich, so couldn’t he just pay to get back into the system if he was unhappy with his results the first time around?

There are infinite “what if” scenarios… but I have to admit, as a rabid lost fan for the last 6 years, I would be extremely disappointed with that ending.

Interesting theory about LOST being a computer simulation. There is a problem though, Damon Lindelof personally debunked it.

Damon Lindelof: “It’s happening in the real world, there are real stakes, you’re not going to get to the end and cut to black and suddenly realize that this was all sort of a fantasy. That’s the only thing that we sort of need to get out there in the world, because it does diffuse a lot of wacky theories.”

I would be disappointed with #7. I love the idea of these things being real. The time travel and monster and statue. I don’t believe the theory gives any merit to the island’s mythos or the statue’s significance and the black rock, which I believe Richard Alpert came to the island on. I think that there will be 2 time lines and Desmond will connect them some how. I don’t know. I’m more of a fan of just letting it happen in front of me.

The unique nature of the island allows it to be a gateway for the various points in time and space. Different times and “realities” pass through the island or the island passes through them. Hurley’s gift also functions in similar way and that is what allows him to see the “dead”.

The Cabin is a prime example of this. It is difficult for Locke to find the cabin because the islands location and the location of the cabin are not synchronized at that point.

At that moment, the cabin only exists as a blue print drawn by Horace. It is only after Locke finds the blue prints that he is able to find the cabin. Somehow the precise knowledge of the cabins location and the ability for it to manifest as a physical object cause synchronization.

I love that, besides tackling such heady stuff as science vs magic, and free will vs destiny…Lost gets into time travel and the many theories and arguments presented in that field. LOST is the most existential show I’ve ever seen! So awesome!!

Also, in a Jungle, there are subtle signs when it is going to rain suddenly. Observing them is special, but it’s not magic.

Agreed. I just wonder if we’ll even see Jacob or MIB, again, or if the hint of their metagame is enough…a magic box we’ll only get to explore the true contents of with our own imaginations…

A’yup. And, while the Matrix as a concept is soooo great that even it’s sequels didn’t harness but a small fraction of it’s power…it’s getting played out in recent years.
Although, I still enjoy its many branches like the second season of Dollhouse.

I agree with everything you wrote. And, I didn’t think you were arguing, really, either.
The evidence certainly suggests that Whatever Happened, Happened…and in one universe this is a good case.
We’re being led to believe (via ComicCON) that Jughead has created an alternate universe. And talk of two stories merging makes it seem like the alternate universe will not be all it’s cracked up to be and they’ll have to merge them somehow.
Or something.
Whatever Happens in Lost…Will be Great, Regardless.

“The Wizard of Oz” and “Alice in Wonderland” weren’t mysteries though. They are clearly fantasy worlds. You are not prompted to ask who built the Emerald City or where do the witches get their powers. When we first see Richard 20 years prior and he looks the same, we are obviously supposed to be surprised and wonder why.

At any rate, I have a hard time incorporating certain characters and scenes into this idea. What about the other passengers on 316? Or scenes that are off-island but don’t involve the central cast, such as the listening station phoning Penny? Are the flashbacks and flashforwards part of the simulation?

It is very possible that someone other than Locke inhabits Locke’s replicated body. What I was arguing was the simple mechanics of how the replicated Locke materialized on the Island in the first place.
Ceasing to exist would be true if there was only one singular reality that was being modified and changed. Going back in time would change the progression of time from the point of change.

However, in a multi-verse reality if you were to go back in time and change something your time line would not change, instead a new reality would branch off at the point you attempted to change history. It is in this tangent reality where the consequences of your attempts to change the past would materialize.

I do think Lost employs a modified version of a multi-verse-universe. There is one real reality that is composed of a physical and conscious reality and other tangent realities that are simple manifestation of consciousness. What Dharma and everybody else is doing is trying to change real time from some terrible end but are unable to do so. In real time the rules of WHH applies.

Jacob or whomever is attempting to shape, or better yet reroute, real time from the outside by implementing elements from imaginary time. The island and the manipulation of its energy allow them to do that.
