Incidentally, I'm not really into Asians that much, but Sung Hi Lee is a fine little piece of ass.

No slant motherfucking cunt is worth sticking white dick into and we all know it.
They are an ugly, disgusting race... almost as bad as the fucking niggers.

On this I agree, and I think you've hit it right on the head. Why would he? He can walk, he's got a family that mostly accepts him, he's got a function, and no one's trying to fuck him over and steal his other kidney. This is the best place he's ever been. If I had his shitty-assed life, I'd stay there too. I don't think enough has changed to make him want to leave now.
 
Okay, so what do you make of Patchy's proclamation? "But you, John Locke, I may have a fleeting memory of...but the John Locke I knew was PARA--". </paraphrased>

Okay, obviously DHARMA has knowledge of certain passengers, either through prior research (which leads down one line of speculation) OR... through the light monster Locke saw in season one... the opposite of smoky. I think both scan memories.

There's some speculation going around, however, that Mikheil and Locke had met before in some way... obviously in a way that Locke doesn't remember, if that's the case.
 
Ohhhh.... so that's how Locke wound up paralyzed... that had to seriously suck on many different levels.

Anyone care to guess what the "magic box" is?
 
I wonder if the magic box is even real. Ben is so manipulative, you never know when he's telling the truth or twisting it. Maybe the island is more of a mystery to him than it is to anyone else. I'm sure there's something.. he always has that grain of truth in his lies.

I think Ben and Locke may become allies. Ben can manipulate Locke's mystical belief in the island.. hopefully Locke is wise to Ben's ways though.

Looks like someone's gonna die next week. I haven't read the spoilers yet though.
 
One thing I've learned about this show is to take most things at face value.

I'm having a discussion on a board dedicated to Lost about the "magic box." I don't think Ben was speaking strictly metaphorically... I'm reasonably sure there's a basis for what he's talking about... a tesseract.

Rather than retype my statement I made at dharmasecrets.com I'll cut and paste it here.

Well, here's what I'm thinking, and please be gentle because I'm not a physicist... I do well to balance my checkbook

:

If the island exists in a tesseract, is a tesseract, or has one on it, then some things start making sense.

As I understand it, a tesseract is a 4-dimensional cube where movement along the 4th dimension translates into transition in time. If you take a 3D cube, you can see the height, width, and depth of it but you see it frozen in time... it looks the same from moment to moment. With a 4d cube, you can examine its 4th aspect, time, from different viewpoints. I'm wondering if the same holds true for things inside the tesseract as well.

If what I think is true, then this starts explaining things that have been happening... why things from the past are seen on the island: Christian, the horse, the Black Rock, etc. From different points in time, but either wander here and get trapped (like maybe the BR) or are seen from the inside even though they're still outside... sorta.

It would explain the voices... I've had a feeling for some time that they are people on the outside looking in on the events happening, and the transcripts of the voices seem to indicate that.

A tesseract would explain rapid movement on the island if you know how to use it or by accident. It would explain how Goodwin got to the other side of the island in virtually minutes after the tail section crashed. Assuming Danielle's on the level, it would conversely explain how she could wander on the island for 16 years and not discover the same crap that the Losties have been stumbling on within 80 days (if she's on the level I emphasize).

This point is hard to explain, so I hope everyone can grasp what I'm saying: it would explain why many of the survivors seem to be disconnected from each other... it's like 20 people in the same house all with different agendas and not communicating gathered information very much... they're individually moving in their own frames of reality and only coincide when they encounter mutual events.

I'm probably going overboard with this, and if I'm right it's probably much simpler, but the more I think about it, the more it makes sense.

OMG those animations are awesome!

If the tesseract theory is correct, that might explain how Locke's father got on the island.

What do you think about Ben? If he was born on the island, where do you think his parents are.. probably dead, but did they work for DHARMA? And why is he so manipulative.. why does he want to keep everyone there?

It explains a lot of things.

First question: this can go two ways. Either a) time is different here, so he was born there as a DHARMA product, or b) he's a leftover from a prior group of people who were already living there. He said specifically that not many of his people can say they were born there... most were recruited. Right now I'm leaning toward A.

Second question: If A above is true, then he may be engineered to have leadership abilities. That is a total guess on my part, and I really have no solid idea until we learn some more about his background.
 
A couple of revelations from the show's producers through podcasts... I really need to go back and listen to all the podcasts, but I find those two guys to be incredibly annoying people...

Damon Lindelof: There is this incorrect way of thinking about the Others in that they are the remnants of the Dharma Initiative—the foot was sort of a not-so-subtle reminder that this island and its mystical aspects have been in play for many, many hundreds of years, as opposed to just 1980 when the Dharma Initiative started making their little orientation movies.

and

Carlton Cuse: "The connection between the Others and Dharma gets revealed in episode 11.

Ok, so the way I see this now is: Mikheil claimed to be the last surviving member of the DI, yet he's in cahoots with Bea. In fact he takes orders from her. So if there really is a difference between the DI and the Others, and Mikheil and Be are DI, then who are the Others supposed to be? More logically, if Mikheil and Bea are Others, then they are not DI... and by proxy the rest of Ben's group aren't DI either.
 
Just got around to seeing the last episode. That was creepy and somewhat unexpected.

So, I suppose Locke's pappy is also Sawyer, and the tesseract thing makes a ton of sense.

The general consensus among internet fandom is that Cooper is indeed the original Sawyer.

I'm not going to say no but I doubt it. That's too easy.
