Lost Update - Season Six - 01/27/2010
It's been a long road, getting from there to here.
It's been a long time, but my time is finally near.
And I will see my dream come alive at last. I will touch the sky.
And they're not gonna hold me down no more, no they're not gonna change my mind.
Cause I've got faith of the heart.
I'm going where my heart will take me.
I've got faith to believe. I can do anything.
I've got strength of the soul. And no one's gonna bend or break me.
I can reach any star.
I've got faith.
I've got faith, faith of the heart.
Five and a half years ago, September 22nd, 2004, I watched the pilot of ABC's new drama series, Lost. It was about a horrific plane crash that went down 1000 miles off course stranding 48 survivors. To make matters worse, the Losties encountered a terrifying invisible monster stalking the survivors. The program was very entertaining but something just didn't jive and some scenes were all to familiar. At that moment, I formulated my Lost theory and posted it to my Grassy Knoll blog. Week in and week out for the past 5 years I updated each episode with what was really going on behind the scene. In May of 2010, we shall see if the Curator was correct.
Just what is the Grassy Knoll Institutes Lost theory….I’ve been waiting six years to tell you…..
Although it appears the survivors of Oceanic flight 815 are on a tropical island, they are being deceived. There is no island. The survivors are in a virtual reality laboratory. All the castaways are interconnected to one another sharing each others thoughts, memories, and feelings. While in this virtual reality laboratory, a battery of physical and mental experiments are performed on them. And who is running these experiments? As Juliet stated, the Aliens of course.
Season Six, the final season, promises to answer the countless questions the show produced. However, the writers stated that not every single question will be given an answer, but will attempt to tie as many loose ends up as possible at the conclusion of the series. The Grassy Knoll Institute feels the following questions need to be answered to satisfy the millions of loyal Lost fans.
* Where are we? Charlie asked that question in the pilot after the smoke monster made it's first appearance. We've been trying to figure that out since.
* When are we? Time travel was introduced and the castaways have been transported to the 1950's, 1970's, the present, whenever that is, and to the future.
* Who are we? A very select group of survivors all with a backstory and all connected to one another in varying degrees.
* Where did all the children go? Ben took them in a raid and we never saw them again.
* Why did they take the children? For what purpose.
* What do the numbers mean? 4 - 8 - 15 - 16 - 23 - 42
They appear everywhere and have some sort of significant meaning.
* What is the Hanso corporation? It was mentioned early on but forgotten as of late.
* What is the real objective of the Dharma Initiative? To save the world, or perhaps to end it.
* Why are people who are known to be dead still appear and interact with the living on and off the island? It gives new meaning to the phrase, I see dead people?
* Who is Jacob? Is he the mastermind behind everything, or merely just another chess piece in the Lost Game.
* Who is the mysterious MIB? And why does he despise Jacob so much.
* How is it possible that John Locke can walk on the island? He was wheel chair bound but after the crash, he turns into Tarzan.
* Who is Ben really? Just an evil man, or a man wanting to save the world.
* Why doesn't Richard age like the rest of the Others? He was around in the 1950's and didn't age a bit in the present and the future.
* How can Desmond see glimpses of the future?
* How did Charlie kick his heroin habit so quickly?
* What is the significance of the Ying/Yang Black/White comparisons? is it a struggle between good and evil.
* Why can't the island be spotted by the air or from the sea?
* What is the significance of the black powder creating a ring around Jacob's cabin in the woods?
* Why don't they show Juliet's rack more often? The ratings would soar even higher.
And literally hundreds of more questions waiting to be answered.
February 2nd, is the premiere of season six. I believe this episode will recap several plot lines of previous seasons and then focus on the end game of the series. We will begin to see very soon where the storyline is headed and how Lost will end and who will be left standing. Alive or dead! I anticipate questions to be answered at a quick pace, not rapid fire, but narrowing the arc's of each character. There has been 5 seasons of episodes, the writers have only 16 episodes to tie it all together before the finale airs in May.
What questions do you want answered by the writers and producers of the show before the series ends? The comments are open, what say you Lost faithful?
