Yeah, I agree. I think they're fighting against the Dharma Project people. It might explain why they won't leave, despite knowing how and having the means to leave. They want to stay and fight.Originally Posted by Dreddz

I think Dharma are the ones wanting children, they took Claire while pregnant, and French Ladies Daughter saved her right? Maybe they took Walt to protect him from Dharma :confused:
it was a good episode, but i didn't like at the end where charlie didn't seem worried about locke and eko at all. it kind of makes it obvious that they survived.
also i think the reason the others had hurley brought out just to send him back was partly as an experiment to see how the big guy does on his own and partly as a failsafe in case micheal does try to come back, because hurley will have already told everyone everything and no one will trust him.
I don't think it's pretty clear. I think it's a possibility, but I don't think it's an absolute.I think it's fairly clear that was likely the cause of the crash, but that doesn't mean fate, or god, or whatever people are speculating is guiding the lives of these people didn't plan it that way.
I'm on the "flashbacks never really happened" camp. Because there's waaaay too many coincidences, way too many chances of fate for any of it to be real. I think it's all in their heads. Or it's all part of the experiment.
I am so annoyed at the end of this season, i thought this would be THE END and everything would get explained! I didnt know anything about a 3rd season. What the hell is going on?
I wanted everything to end on the second season.
It really frustrates me on how little they are telling us.
The only theory i can be bothered to write: Pen's father is running the Dharma initiative.
I also think the flashbacks aren't real, or, they aren't exactly how it went down. Perhaps they are memories that the characters are having and they are inserting recent people and events into them.
I don't think the Others are 'good' or 'bad'. They just are who they are. Obviously with three main characters being held by them I'm sure a lot more about them will be revealed next season. They certainly don't act like they are evil, just that they have their own agenda. They let Michael and Walt go free at least, though anything can happen with them. I think that's the real Walt, and that he's gone for good, and that Michael may or may not be back with some new story. They have an open end there, but the kid's getting too old. Henry is possibly the leader, but I still say Jack's dad is behind it all! It seems fishy that the leader would be wandering through the woods alone.
I think the hatch blew up or something blew up in it. Desmond is probably dead, but the other two are probably alive. Maybe they haven't signed their contracts yet. I hope Des gets written back in somehow because I liked him.
I'm not even going to try and speculate what Desmond's girlfriend has to do with the electromagnetic stuff. The writers probably don't even have that all figured out yet.
That four toed statue was just plain silly.

Alvar Hanso is running the Dharma Initiative. Mr. Widmore does run a laboratory, though, the same one that manufactured the pregnancy test that Sun uses in Episode 216 "The Whole Truth." However, I haven't seen a connection between Hansocorp and Widmore Labs.
I'm pretty sure that (SPOILER)Des was signed for Season 3 as a main character.
We still don't know how Locke got his legs messed up.
Those men in the Arctic were speaking Portuguese.
I thought that was a great Finale, also I think that the statue was a great idea, but when Sayhid said that it had four toes I was a little mad, I think that he should be caring WHY IT IS THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE! He never even mentioned that.
Also, those guys in the arctic, well don't the poles of the earth have a magnetic pull? That is just too much of a coincidence what with the hatch being magnetic and all.
Desmond, Locke, and Eko better not be dead, (although I must say, Locke and Eko made me a bit pissed because they were acting like such idiots, though Desmond was strangely, one of the best characters that episode)
I think that Micheal won't get away, It would just be too...simple, I think that the magnetic pull will ruin the compass and he will slowly go in a circle, or at least I hope he doesn't get away...
Sig please.
The Others had a list of people they thought were "good", and they call themselves "good" all the time. Maybe they are. Maybe they sent Michael straight to Dharma with those coordinates and not to help like they said for what he did. Maybe they can't leave the island because Dharma is out there waiting OoOoOoOh.
The real culprit is the dog. The dog is SATAN
Why in the world are you guys questioning the accuracy of the flashbacks or the coincidences? OF COURSE they happened. That's the whole point of the show... that everyone is interconnected. I think that is one thing that doesn't really need to be analyzed.
Also, one thing that pissed me off about this episode was the fact that Desmond went along with Locke to see what would happen when the timer ran out, YET HE HAD SEEN WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE! Why did he even question it? Because Locke had a tape that said they were being watched? That's silly. He should have said, "Gee, I remember we let it run out before and some magnetic craziness started happening." That was stupid.
Are you serious?
I think that the flashbacks are one of the #1 things you have to consider about the show. One of the most interesting theories I've heard about the nature of the island is that it's all a social experiement. Memories were implanted in these people's brains to see how they would act depending on what their memories told them about their past.
If someone was implanted with memories of being a doctor, would they be capable of performing the duties of a doctor, even if those memories aren't really his? It's a really interesting way to look at things.
I guess you can be of the opinion that these flashbacks as well as everything that happens on the Island is real. But I don't think they are because everything is too supernatural to be real.
The writers have confirmed that the Island is NOT purgatory, and it's not St. Elsewhere-esque either (for those of you who don't know, the medical drama St. Elsewhere ended with the whole thing turning out to have happened in a snowglobe in the mind of an autistic child). But obviously they're thinking somewhere along those lines, that everything that is happening in Lost is not happening in the "real" world.
Who knows, maybe it's all a dream. Maybe they're all in a psychiatric institution. Maybe it's a scientific experiement. Maybe it's something like the Truman Show.
How can you not question the flashbacks and the coincidences when they're so integral to the storyline?
Yeah but hasnt like nearly no one seen Hanso? There would be more than one person running it anyway.Alvar Hanso is running the Dharma Initiative. Mr. Widmore does run a laboratory, though, the same one that manufactured the pregnancy test that Sun uses in Episode 216 "The Whole Truth." However, I haven't seen a connection between Hansocorp and Widmore Labs.
Im more inclined to say that the flashbacks are real, but I guess there is the possibility that everyone is infected and thats why they are seeing things. But.....nah...

Also, though people probably picked up on this one, I think all the monsters on the island were created by Walt. There were polar bears, and he had a polar bear comic. He seems to make things come up when he's under stress (like when he made that bird appear because of his Mom's boyfriend), and it would check out, because I remember him being stuck in some kind of tree and upset, and then a polar bear appeared. It may be possible that The Others wanted Walt because they may have wanted him to make monsters for their protection. Just a thought.
I wonder if they'll ever explain Walt's powers or even use that storyline again now that he's getting to old to play that character.

I think the polar bear has something to do with those two blokes who were monitoring electromagnetism levels.
