Mom, Neil is famous. | November 20th, 2006
With the dearth of postings lately, I’d like to issue a call for any LOST theories swirling around in the Godfrey family. I like the theory that it’s a place where you get exactly what you want. Think about it. We’ve got a few months to kill. (And please tell me someone in the family watches it. Ryan, I’m counting on you.) For the non-watchers, what is your heart’s desire for Christmas, and what mountains are we going to be climbing, say around the 25th or 26th of December? (Neil, Diana, and Dad, this seems to be your area of expertise.) I vote for Camelback. Love and Happy Thanksgiving to you all.

I don’t watch it. But I will, on Netflix. Eventually.
What about theories regarding Deal or No Deal? (Just kidding.)

We netflixed (yes, that is a verb) the first season, but only got through disc 4 or 5. I think your theory is a good one. Hadn’t heard that before.

Where are Ryan and Jessica?

They can’t tear away from LOST to comment.

Ha! Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

Will someone PLEASE post something else?!

I think we need to hear about Jessica: her life, her job, her hopes and fears, her chubby cat. Anything and everything Jessica.

I agree.

We are Lost watchers in these parts. I don’t have any extremely good theories. The purgatory postulate is popular, but it’s been shot down by the producers. There’s the chance (Stephen King seems to think) that this is all the dream of one of the characters (Jack, most likely), but that would be the lame if it turned out to be true.
The theory that makes the most sense to me is that Hanso used/is using the island’s natural psychomagnetic powers in an experiment in utopian living, funded by large government agencies with the real or at least expressed purpose of world peace. There has been a schism between the Others and other Others that we haven’t met yet (Patchy being the leader of the main group), and there are two encampments on two different islands. That the Others we know are still nominally committed to the utopian mission makes them “the good guys,” as Ben said. The crash survivors are there essentially at the invitation and on behalf of the island itself, which has a consciousness of its own, and perhaps it has brought them to rid itself of the Hanso/Others “disease.”
Maybe?

Interesting theory. I guess I’m wondering, why the hostility and secretiveness? And what the heck is the black mist? And how do they all just happen to be connected? If it ends up being Jack’s dream, I will be seriously bugged.

I just starting watching. S-c-a-a-a-r-y! Ryan’s little theory is kind of complicated, no? I’m a-gonna get hooked on internet hunting for spoilers and theory analysis.
