US: Lost Theories... *Spoilers*

Hannibal_12

My theory is that the Island in some way seems to manifest the fears of the people on it. The polar bear for instance seems to arise from the comic book that the child reads, a child which has been descibed by his adopted father as "different". Remember the flashback showing the child reading a book regarding birds and then suddenly one (the same species) flies into the window of the house. I imagine it developing along those lines.

Children are always associated with weird things traditionaly in Horror movies 'Children of the Corn', 'Poltergiest', 'The Shinning' etc.... Can you tell I've been musing on this for quite some time... I've just though of the Disney film 'Witch Mountain' the first one not the second...

Chardee MacDennis

never seen that film, but walts imagination (or whatever it was) manifested iself before they got too the island ie. the bird, brian not willing to fly with him and saying he's different and also it hasnt manifested anyone elses fears and it has made locke better, also helped them find the cave with jacks hallucinations.

Ok so I've been reading the Conspiracy theorys forum and my latest WILD theory is that there on the Lost island of Lemuria or Atlantis???

Yes I know WILD

My theory is that they are in the Bermuda Triangle. Thats near to Fiji and Australia.

Would explain the Black Rock and the planes and stuff. Also, weird stuff happens in the Bermuda triangle.

Can you elaborate on that? I'm just wondering how it would explain what's happening with the people on the island.

Doesn't that French woman know where they are though? I mean weren't they sent to do an experiment there?


What sort of weird stuff happens in the Bermuda Triangle apart from aircraft stuff?

bringitdown

Bermuda triangle??? they are in the Pacific are they not?

I thought they were blown off course/shipwrecked after a storm could be wrong

Edit:The Atlantis Theory is a mix between the wormhole & Bermuida Triangle theory, Kinda like Dinotopia

vibe666

you mean THIS bermuda triangle?

oh, and the french team were on some sort of survey mission or something, and overheard the numbers being transmitted from the island, and as they went to investigate got shipwrecked.

or something.

I think you guys are missing the implied sarcasm in the original post.

Lmao :):)

I think the 'monster' might be some kind of biomechanical animal? Found this which connects the numbers to things I hadnt noticed:

Whats eating me is the hatch that locke found...I wreckon it will open up a whole new theory when we know whats in there. And locke telling Shannon ''we all get a second chance on the island'' What the hell does he know?? Maybe untill they all face thier fears, realise thier terrible ways//short comings...then maybe this will unlock a rescue or ...yes im loosing it now

Wherever they landed, they had a second chance anyway. Locke doesn't need to know much about the island to say that. They all have a fresh start with a clean slate. He got a second chance. He's just trying to boost morale. Or else he does know everything. Either is possible.

What's the name of that black woman that went into shock a while back? Her husband was on the flight, I think and she said she knew he was alive. I bet he's alive on another part of the island. There must be more survivors. They wouldn't have had her say it if it wasn't significant.

tvnutz

Her name is Rose.

Maybe her husband is still alive but I assumed it was just shock she was in or back to one of the original theories of them being dead and she knew it. But that idea has been blow outta the water by know I think...

It's the intrigue

Isnt it obvious whats going on? the Island was indeed visited by Aliens but not recently, maybe severay million years ago! the poor Dinosaurs living there got really pissed-off by the Alians and stole there "Cloaking technology" which is possibly Klingon? this would explain the "invisible" T-Rex prancing around the jungle, as for the polar Bear, that too can be explained by the Aliens who before landing on the island had kidnapped a Mummy & Daddy Polar bear from the South Pole and brought them to the Island millenia ago (for T-Rex to eat presumably)! obviously the Polar bears escaped and had children whos off spring live on the Island to this very day! (inhale) one thing bothers me though Why didnt the Polar bear use the Cloaking technology for themselves? P.S. (Locke is Not what he seems).

That's an incredibly stupid theory... everyone knows polar bears live at the North Pole.

Thats a joke,right? Because thats probably the worst theory I have heard about the show! lol and terribly wrong as well.

Fridge

Of course it's a joke.

I was think to myself last night how come hurley's cd player still has batteries untill it was answered in the last few moments....

i'm a bit confused...

why is everybody dismissing the purgatory theory. surely, in the simplest terms, good vs evil. if you are good but do something bad (but not too bad) or bad and do something amazing (eg save a life) you will have to spend time in purgatory to decide the outcome of your soul.

i also believe that the monster is i fact 'death' or 'god'... you see where i am going with this. those that have already died have had their fates decided, such as boone giving his life to save others, whilst the others are still choosing... with the exception of locke who has actually become possessed by the entity (in a good way). if you concentrate on locke he seems to know too much about the others and is trying to steer them in the right direction, eg charlie is a drug addict, obviously a sin, and locke 'saves' him.

these are just my musings, but if anyone has any ideas/thoughts...

Anima

The writers already said that the survivors are not in purgatory.
