Lost because of Lost???

Lost because of Lost

I think “Lost” is a great show, even though the story line has become increasingly complex and somewhat confusing. I have a few questions about Season 5, which I’m sure a lot of you do.

1. Who is Jacob? Is it Jack’s father? Jack? I have no clue, but he’s really confusing me?

2. What does the statue shown in Season 5 represent (when time kept changing)? Or better yet, what is the statue?

3. We’ve seen people die on the island, so why is Locke alive?

4. Who are the others? Still not explained, and why do they never age?

5. Are you telling me that they turn that wheel and the whole island moves and/or jumps in time? Really?

So I know there are a million and one more questions, but I don’t want them to take up the whole post. Feel free to help me out though and ask any questions that are driving you crazy. I’m starting to think that the whole time travel thing is taking over the whole story, and will eventually lead to the conclusion that time travel wiped out the series of events and it all never happened then. Which would kind of suck don’t you think? All that for nothing?

And does anyone else think that Sawyer and Juliet don’t make a good couple? Maybe it’s just because ladies, we know Sawyer is hot, and usually see that kind of guy with a model type, so it is refreshing to see him with a normal, educated woman. But I still prefer Sawyer’s character before he started dating her, as opposed to “the leader” role.

Here’s a theory about Jack’s dad:

Locke had to die to get back to the island. He died, was put in a coffin, then on a plane, which took him back to the island and brought him back to life.

Jack’s dad, died, put in a coffin, then on a plane that took him to the island. Could he have wanted to get back to the island for some reason? Could he have died because he knew that Jack would come and take him in a coffin, on a plane that he knew would crash on the island because he knew Desmond wouldn’t push the button, so he could come to life on the island again?

Jack’s dad has been consistent since the series began, so I guess it would make sense that he has a large role in the drama of “the island”.

For those of you who are reading this, and aren’t addicted to lost, I understand how this sounds. But I guess its just one of those “water cooler” conversations. I love having a show that is makes you think, and it’s always refreshing because there’s something new being thrown at you. I do find that every show has it’s own repetitive themes, but I’m a fan, so this post may sound nerdy or whatever you want to call it, but there’s nothing wrong with interest and curiosity.
