Sean’s Probably False Lost Theories
I want to write down all my theories about Lost here before I see any of Season 6, then look back at the end of it all to see how far off I was.
First off, read the Time Loop Theory. When it all comes down, I think that guy’s going to be the closest.
Walt and Aaron- I think Walt and Aaron are going to have something HUGE to do with the future of the island. Either with stopping someone from destroying it, or providing a means to resurrect Jacob (if he stays dead after the bomb).
Locke will not stay dead, at least in the sense that he was dead at the end of Season 5. Locke’s going to be able to actively affect the outcome of events on the island.
I don’t think we’ll see it get too “supernatural” or “religious”, as in gods and demons and all that. Anyone with seemingly unnatural powers or abilities (Walt, Jacob, Locke, Richard, etc) are normal people communing in a special way with the island, a highly abnormal place.
The Others are descendants of the Black Rock, and the Black Rock is the ship that Jacob saw on the horizon in Season 5.
Jacob and his nemesis- I’ve heard him called Esau before, and I like that. I’ll call him that from now on.
Jacob is a human being made of flesh, blood, and DNA. He understands the island better than anyone else, and has been able to harness its abilities to make himself appear more than human. But at a terrible cost, which is why he’s always needing a human mediator (Ben, Whidmore, Locke). I realize I’ll probably be most wrong about this prediction.
Esau is the only character on the show that I think could have any chance of being “supernatural”, or more than human, in any way. I think he’s either the island itself made manifest, or the being, creature, or force that gives the island its unique properties. He also either controls the smoke monster, or is the smoke monster.
I’m heading out to a Lost party, so I’ll wrap this up for now and post some more stuff tomorrow, as well as my initial reactions to the premiere.
Update: I just stumbled upon something huge. Richard gives Locke a compass that Locke later gives to Richard when he goes back time, who then gives it to Locke when he meets up with him in future, who then gives it to Richard when he goes back in time, who gives it back to Locke when he…
Where the hell did that compass come from?
