I have to admit, I am adictted to LOST. I am not sure what the hell is going on. These hatches are whacked out..... and why do they want the kids?
Oh well
Fosco - some of what you are saying is similar to the move "The Island". If you've never seen it, look it up or rent it. You will probably like it...... if you're into that sort of thing.
I think they want the kids so the can program them then release them to society just like I beieve may have happened to the current Losties.
Next year's LOST will be split into three 7 episode runs - with breaks inbetween. This will limit the number of reruns played during the season - no more waiting 3 weeks to see what happens in the next 'day'.
I agree on the social experimentation. I'm thinking it has something to do with cloning and experiments of healing effects of electromagnatism, gene therapy or something like that. Think about the cloning effect:
1. Almost all the characters have 'daddy' issues - most of them were adopted (probably born on the island) and their lives (lottery, jobs, etc.) were planned out.
2. All of the characters were put into the flight for specific reasons (honeymoons (husband is an 'other'), trips (Locke's Dad is intruiging), Sun/Jin (mafia Dad), Jack's Dads 'fake' death). There may not have been an 'accident' in the crash - they may have been brainwashed to 'remember' what happened to them.
3. The healing effects (Locke's legs, the woman's cancer, drug addiction, effects on pregnancy, fertility, etc.) on these selected people (potential clones) is very intruiging.
I for one am very excited to see how this show turns out. I wish they'd end a portion of the storylines (like 24 does each year) so we don't have to wait 5 years to figure out what the point of the show is (or what the black fog really is either).
Good stuff Fosco, I think that their lives have been planned also. Glad to hear about how the sched will be next season. Those long breaks with no new show are hard times.
I wonder if the healing isnt actually "healing" but just that Dharma was keeping then sick. Like Locke, he wasnt paralyzed before his Dad ripped off his kidney. Maybe they didnt take a kidney but attached something to his spine? Maybe the med Rose took are what was making her sick? Bigtime conspiracy theory but I cant get enough!
Didn't Locke get hit by a car or something - isn't that why his back/legs were messed up? The kidney angle is pretty sweet - they remarked on that a few times. The Rose situation is crazy too - maybe she never had cancer and the doctors (part of Dharma) were in on it there - just placebos or something.
Here are questions I'd like to answered:
1. Who is Dharma; what happened with 'the incident' and 'the others/scientists'?
2. What are they doing with the kids (Walt's powers) - is it part of the ongoing experimentation/brainwashing?
3. How did Claire's captors have a mobile in the baby crib with Oceanic Airlines flying around a 'sun'?
4. What the f is the point of the button (another social experiment - fear and compliance)?
5. Why all the religious references and Latin phrases? Check out the attached screenshot of the hatch in HD. Pretty sweet stuff - I've translated most of them before from Latin.

What I think is crazy is how all these people are interconnected somehow. I dont know if it is in real life or just in their heads (although most of them dont know they are connected). Oh well, for every question that is answered on that show, three more questions are created.
BTW, I think there might be a connection with LOST and the Packers..... you know.... the polar bear and TT. I think we might finally know where TT has been all this time.
I'd procrastinate and never figure out how to use it properly.

thats what pisses me off about Tivo!! what the hell service are you paying for???? a computer to scan the guide and turn on when your show comes on??? i just use the VCR......if i can ever figure out how to get the damn clock to stop blinking!!
Hmm, I should kill my other thread since this one is still around. I thought for some reason it got taken down. Really, really strange since I used firefox's find to search for lost on every page. Maybe it got bumped up as I was doing this?
