It's already blocked off in my calendar! :)<BR/><BR/>As far as Walt goes, Darlton actually mentioned that Walt may not have actually been typing to Michael with his hands. They suggested it may have been a psychic communication (likely while he was under duress). <BR/><BR/>But regardless, we did see in Expose that Ben intended to use Michael to bring him Jack, Kate and Sawyer so he could have told Walt to type it if he ever wanted to see his Dad again. Or something. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07475817897723801757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6448824486226424563.post-10415954879268800032007-12-24T08:36:00.000-05:002007-12-24T08:36:00.000-05:00There has to still be a magic box effect on the Is...There has to still be a magic box effect on the Island even if A Coop was not the result of it. Ben missed his mom and saw his mom. Walt seems able to tap into the effect as well with the polar bear and contacting Michael. And Locke tapped into it by being able to walk. <BR/><BR/>Ben's story that it produced A Coop is mere hokkum because why on earth would that be what Locke would want? <BR/><BR/>Here's a mystery from the Access Granted that I dont' understand--why would Walt use the computer to communicate with Michael since it lead him into a trap? How does that reconcile with Walt screaming in the tent that the Others aren't what they seem and not to trust them? Was it just the case that the Others were able to see the communication as well and lay the trap, or did Walt lead Michael into it?memphishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11135806668363907263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6448824486226424563.post-52074207364401933082007-12-23T02:03:00.000-05:002007-12-23T02:03:00.000-05:00Sweeeet!

Like, maybe, where Rad put the "X" marks to show the tunnels cut off, maybe they actually are not cut off, and that's more like a hash mark to designate the tunnels veering off to another level.<BR/><BR/>But seriously! TPTB haven't even explained the first map yet!

And I wouldn't be surprised to see another submerged/separate island DHARMA base. Seems like a safe choice for researchers given that giant smoke monster wandering around.<BR/><BR/>Hmmm... I'll have to check out that birthdays comment too - I haven't gone through all the Easter eggs yet.<BR/><BR/>While it would make perfect sense for Ben to want Cooper, doesn't it seem odd that Ben would tell him the whole magic box story? Is there even a magic box? Did Ben just tell him that because he didn't want to mention that they brought him here? <BR/><BR/>And if the magic box is real, did it have anything to do with bringing Cooper to the island? I mean, maybe Ben "asked" the box what he could do to prevent Locke from usurping his position and it told him to go get Cooper.<BR/><BR/>Oh tricksy Ben! You make it so difficult for us to guess what's happening with your lies! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07475817897723801757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6448824486226424563.post-83236877529275108542007-12-20T13:39:00.000-05:002007-12-20T13:39:00.000-05:00I'm a little annoyed too that Blu-Ray people got t...I'm a little annoyed too that Blu-Ray people got this feature and us mere humans didn't. I think it's kind of unfair to save what is probably the best special feature for not only a more expensive edition, but also one that requires way more expensive technology. Oh well.<BR/><BR/>But yeah, all of this info is exciting. I'm glad Dark posted it! Here's my take on some of this:<BR/><BR/>1. While I was sure Mikhail and Christian were dead, I was hoping Kelvin would still be around. He's such a compelling character (and I LOVE Clancy Brown), so I'd like to see him interacting with everyone in real-time. Guess not.<BR/><BR/>2. Yeah, I think it's a LOT like "The Langoliers." Essentially, just take THE DARK TOWER, THE STAND, THE MIST and THE LANGOLIERS, throw 'em in a blender and you've got LOST! Okay, not exactly, but I really dig all the similarities. As for travel to and from the island, obviously there is something really big which we're not seeing. I'm guessing it involves this time anomaly thing, like you said.<BR/><BR/>3. I just made a post about this one on my blog! I'm thinking there is an automated storage system on the island that restocks on its own, and the whole "lockdown" thing is all a song and dance.<BR/><BR/>4. I think they're still implying that Richard does not age normally. He might not be immortal, but it seems clear it's not a mistake that he didn't seem to age between Ben's flashback and now. (On the commentary for "Man Behind the Curtain," Carlton mentions that the "You do remember birthdays, don't you?" line is a reference to this). <BR/><BR/>5. I had kind of been assuming that Ben just had the Others go and get Cooper. I don't think this has anything to do with Jacob; instead, it has everything to do with Ben anticipating Locke as a threat to his leadership. I was rewatching "The Man From Tallahassee" last night, and Ben's con seems a lot more obvious in retrospect.<BR/><BR/>6. I don't even know if my brain could handle the other dimension of the map at this point. Just what could it be? How much more of this island is there?Paula Abdul Alhazredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09383429691581717478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6448824486226424563.post-48221105311055622452007-12-19T18:28:00.000-05:002007-12-19T18:28:00.000-05:00Nice comments on the commentary! :o) Well, at lea...Nice comments on the commentary! :o) Well, at least we can count on our buddies to get the Blu-Ray extras out to us.<BR/><BR/>#1- Boohoo. But we could also see them in other alive islander's FBs.<BR/><BR/>#2- Good call on the Langoliers aspect.<BR/><BR/>#3- I'm thinking a sub-surface storage area that shoots it out of sunken missile-type silos. POP! Then they float down to the ground. :-)<BR/><BR/>#5- Yeah, this is surprising. I'm beginning to think that if Ben is talking to Locke, whatever he says is a lie.<BR/><BR/>#6- This is the most exciting development of all to me!Capcomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06841675195251354073noreply@blogger.com
