Am I the only one who isn't a Charlie fan? I mean, I thought he was interesting during the first season or so, but once his backstory had been told he was kind of boring to me.
I thought the timing and manner of his death was perfect. |

I can't think of a good reason for Ana Lucia to come back. I marked out when Michael killed her and Libby. It was such a 'two birds with one stone' moment

Nikki and Paulo will end up being the key to the entire Lost mythology. What a swerve that would be

The skeletons are supposed to be the thing that ties the show together at the end. I doubt they'd waste that big reveal on Rose and Bernard.

Who else could they put there? Boone and Shannon? Say that Shannon decided she liked Boone back so they died happily together in a cave? I dunno. Rose and Bernard seems like the safe bet, but that's the joy of Lost, you never know.

I think the mystery still surrounding the nature of Jacob and his enemy, and the smoke monster, are bigger questions

yeah but the producers said they put the skeletons with the stones there on purpose so that they could prove they had the whole show planned from the start, and weren't just making it up as they went along

Also, what's the story on Walt? Isn't he supposed to be important?

I think the real reason why Claire was AWOL for a lot of season 5 was because of the actress's real life commitments, which in the past has been a reason for the story to be altered or have some plot holes. |

No doubt. This whole show is honestly revolving around 2 entities that nobody honestly could see except for a select few. It all ties back to Walt and Locke playing Othello (or was it Backgammon?) and the whole contrast between light and darkness ordeal. I just want to see how the hell the 2 of them ever came to be there in the first place.

If they bring Ana Lucia back I can't wait until they kill her again.

Jacob, his enemy, the Island, Richard and what the show is all about - will be the focus of season 6 imo.

- Jacob and his enemy
- Richard's ability to not age - Walt's "gifts" - the smoke monster - the skeletons - the numbers. why was Hurley's friend repeating them? - - - |

Is there still uncertainty over why Charles Whidmore wants the island, and how and why Dharma was there?
Again, I have to rewatch seasons 4 and 5 before 6 |

Its so cool that all the little things from even the first season are so important.
I remember what Locke said to Walt when they played Backgammon the first time, 'Two sides.....one is light....one is dark...' so significant. |

the statue definitely. I think it indicates an ancient civilization on the island though. There's a lot of temple shit on the island. I guess the powers of the Island/Jacob were there God or something to that effect.
The donkey wheel was obviously man made. That's a good point. I just kind of accepted that it was a part of the island but it obviously got there somehow. But how? |

On the subject of Polar Bears...
we now know that the polar bears were just test subjects from the Dharma installation. We saw their cages, and apparently at least one of them travelled through time and came out in the desert. But is that all there is to it? They were just using polar bears as guinea pigs and adapting them to tropical weather? Do we know why? Why polar bears? |

2 - Unknown 3 - Think DHARMA simply wanted to experiment and harness the unique geological and supernatural properties on the Island. I doubt they knew of its real supernatural significance and importance. |

I'm not sure if we'll get any more on the donkey wheel. It feels like a lot of things are kind of left to the imagination in terms of how they actually work. We know that there is a large source of energy underground and we know that there is a wheel in the wall. At some point someone figured out that they could stick the wheel in the wall and it would cause the island to move while transporting the turner to Africa.

It makes sense that Dharma just wanted to experiment and study the island. The real question is, how did they know about the island and how did they find it?
It's not like "the island" is just known to the world like The Amazon and The Congo, and you can just go there and study it. Someone or something had to inform them about it and allow them to get there. Same goes for that Army team with Whidmore. Was that US or UK army? Were they there by accident or were they on a specific government mission? |

How did the Black Rock get to the center of the island and who was on it?

Richard was. Other than that I would just assume a bunch of sailors who didn't get his gift and died.
They tell us a little about the black rock in an episode where we see a painting of it being auctioned off. I don't remember what year it went missing, but they tell that. 1800s. They also explain that it was either a slave or spice ship or something. Again, I forget. How it got to the center of the Island? Beats me. I guess I just chalked it up to wierdness and assumed it was a tidal wave or something |

As for how it got in the middle of the island, maybe a hurricane or perhaps there used to be a tributary that flowed through the jungle and perhaps the ship was washed out there? |

No she was part of the French crew. They were only there 16 years before the passengers of 815.
The Black Rock was from the 1800s and Richard was on it. I'm pretty sure. Like I said, I intend on rewatching seasons 4 and 5 soon. |

DHARMA's founder/sponsor was ALVAR HANSO, of the HANSO foundtation and family. The same family who owned the log book of The Black Rock (It wasn't a painting being auctioned, it was a log book).
Also, if you decode the blast door map, the site of the black rock is also listed as being the final resting place of someone called Hanso. There is a connection, yet its not fully visable yet. |

Richard was not on the Black Rock. Not according to anything stated on the show so far. I don't know why I thought that. I guess it was something I must have thought up myself, and remembered as fact.
With so much going on in the show it's easily to occasionally get mixed up |

An episode containing backstory on Richard would answer a lot of questions about a lot of things
