Lost Squared: II
Well, here's last night's lead from the imbedded "commercial"... I think.
All three (are there more?) so far, in order of appearance:
www.thehansofoundation.com
www.sublymanol.com
and now, this one:
www.followyourcompass.com
What general theme is perking up here?
* life extension
* vitamins
* cloning
* following your heart
* magnetic compasses
* computer keys
* roses (The Mary statues?)
* money
* lead generation
* sustaining plant life
* perfection of the earth and man
Hmmm...
Has it occurred to anyone that the numbers are Hours, Minutes and Seconds of latitude and longitude?
I punched in the numbers for coordinates in order and got a place in Africa close to a place called Banga in the Southwestern corner of the Central African Republic (beside Cameroon). Didn't life begin in Africa?
Alternately, if you flip the coordinates (take each set of 3 and enter the second set before the first), you get a location on the Niger River on the border between Niger and Mali.
Mr. Eko? The plane with heroin? Ms. Clue from last night?

They (the show's creators) recently came out and said that some minor plots introduced will have no resolution. "There will be no Lost unified field theory," is how they put it.
I'm certain they put out a lot of stuff that is misinformation.
I used to believe one of the more common beliefs -- that they were dead and this is some kind of purgatory or something. After last night's show, however, I'm beginning to think that it may actually be some kind of programmed psych experiment.
Did you ever see David Cronenberg's eXistenZ? It dealt with virtual reality games and characters losing sight of what was reality and what was fantasy. Hardly a novel concept, but done very well. Very under-rated movie, IMO.
I'm starting to believe that they may all be part of some large virtual experiment of some kind. Maybe after the plane crashed, they were all collected and put in tubes. Maybe they volunteered before they even got on the plane and some of the backstory is VI also.
I actually hope not, but it would explain a lot, like "The Others." They could be control group members, which, regardless of what this turns out to be, I'm sure that they are.
We'll get some more answers next week, hopefully.
Yup! There are entire blogs devoted to just these sorts of theories. And WAAAAAAAAAY more in depth than the creators have been (like noticing "the numbers" in the poker hand Sawyer and Jack are playing, for example). I think some fans give them too much credit. ;-)
Who knows where this will go? It's fun to speculate. I just hope in the end we don't get gypped. I've invested too much time for this to end in a sermon on global warming or some crap like that.
Yes, people routinely get into plane accidents on uncharted islands and have to undergo weird, pseudo-supernatural happenings because of the plight of the Horn-rimmed, sap-sucking owl.
Okay, that was funny.
