LOST discussion - thar be spoilers ahead!

[Agent0028]

Yesterday I was at Hallmark getting my mom's Mother's Day card and I saw Lost puzzles. The really cool thing is that these puzzles had hints and clues hidden in the picture for things about the show. It even had a spoiler warning on the box.

Yesterday I was at Hallmark getting my mom's Mother's Day card and I saw Lost puzzles. The really cool thing is that these puzzles had hints and clues hidden in the picture for things about the show. It even had a spoiler warning on the box.

I've got the Hatch and the Others. I've only put together the others, but I didn't see any spoilers. I've heard there is glow in the dark writing on the back of each of the four that connects together. I suppose that is where the spoilers are. Don't know how you could do it though since these Puzzles are HUGE.

If they have 48 episodes left in them, then I would rather have seen two more seasons of 24 episodes each (technically 23 episodes with a two hour finale). They basically want to make two more seasons but stretch them out over three years. I guess it will keep the show going for longer, but give us 1/3 fewer episodes to talk about each season.



And as far as the jigsaw puzzles--put them all together and on the back side you get a huge copy of the glow in the dark blast door map from the hatch. This link tells you all about the secret code on the back and what it all means when you decode it, with plenty of pictures. Not as much spoiler material as you might expect for all the work involved!! However, it should still be considered spoiler material, so don't click unless you want to know a few things (like the possible real name of the smoke monster).

It's crazy theory time again!

"'Locke will hear two words tonight,'' says (producer Damon) Lindelof. ''Those words, and the fact that he hears them, will change his course on the island forever.''

I think that those two words are going to be "You're Jacob."


Like Mrs. Hawking, Ben uses the power of the island to "time travel" and interact with other people in other timelines. That might also include the future, where Ben is able to talk with Locke, who has become the leader of the Others. Future Locke gives orders to Ben in the past.

Maybe tonight, Locke himself gets to use the box, contact his future self, and hear the words coming out of his own future mouth. That would be explain the impact of not just the words, but the fact that he hears them at all. Locke has a very special relationship with the island and all the Others are primed to love and follow him. I think he will grow to be their great leader, as Ben knows full well from his time travelling conversations. With this in mind, we are also primed for the big showdown between Locke and Jack in the season finale.

Or maybe I'm totally wrong. But all this speculation is part of the fun of watching this show.

True indeed!!

My brain is melting with all these theories floating around!

 

[Darthrazz]

I heard somewhere that Locke was born on the Island.

 

[LOTRFan]

How fun were those Hanso phone calls and commercials last year, I wish they kept those up for this season as well?


Who is Mrs. Hawking again, is she the jewelry store lady?

 

[tomandshell]

Who is Mrs. Hawking again, is she the jewelry store lady?

She is the jewelry store lady. In the same interview with Entertainment Weekly, the producers confirmed that we will see her again, and that she is indeed a time traveler.

Last question. Don't tell my wife, but I have a crush on Mrs. Hawking, the creepy old lady from Desmond's flashbacks who knows all about his future.

LINDELOF: Huh. I don't even know how to respond to that.

There is no other response other than telling me whether I'll be seeing her again before the end of the season.

CUSE: Can we just back up half a second? Once you say something like that, Jeff, it can't be unsaid.

LINDELOF: Unless you travel back in time, like Mrs. Hawking does. But no, you won't be seeing her before the end of the season — but you will be seeing her again.

 

[Darthrazz]

She was also in the picture that was on the desk of the head Monk in Desmonds monastery, Brutha!


Can the same be said that Desmond is a time traveler?

[Agent0028]

Maybe she is stalking Desmond.

 

[Darklord Dave]

That sounds like it was a joke about her being a time traveler.

TONIGHT'S EPISODE?!

You've been warned!

Actually, I don't know exactly how reliable this site is, but there are some pretty juicy details here.

 

[tomandshell]

It's really tempting, but I don't want to click on that link before watching the show tonight...

Do you know if that site is reliable or not? And if it makes you feel any better, the "Jacob Reveal" is only mentioned not totally detailed.

It looks like that is the same person who posted an almost complete (and accurate) summary of last week's episode hours before it aired. With that in mind, there is no way I am going to read it! I have been looking forward to this episode and I don't want it ruined...

 

[Agent0028]

Yeah I'm passing it too. I don't mind reading fellow members theories and ideas, even if some of them are right alot (I'm looking at you Tom ) but I don't want to go reading actual spoilers. Thanks for only posting the link and not the info from the site.

 

[Agent23]

I'm tempted as well. But, I will refrain from clicking the link.

For now...

 

[tomandshell]

HUGE SPOILER!!!

Don't say I didn't warn you...

 

[Memnoch]

I skimmed it. All I can say is that it was spoilery enough for me. Just a meh at best FOR ME but this episode will be fantastic if only because we get to see the aftermath of Locke having his father killed. I'd love it if Ben called Locke on it though as he didn't do it.

 

[DarthNeil]

Just watched the episode...

No spoiling here--- enjoy.

Round table afterward--- things GONNA change.
