The island moving

Bentiss · 05-09-2008, 03:44 AM

Do you guys agree that the island has moved before?
The scene where Charlotte is in the desert in Tunisia...
The bear skeleton with the Dharma logo...

It seems less isolated there, but with all teh magnetic stuff going on and only being able to see the island if you take specific coordinates...

Whatever...
That's the best I can explain it...
It's too early...

I was wondering, do you think they are talking about moving it geographically or moving it in TIME, maybe back before the S#IT started hitting the fan, to be better prepared, anyone else think that?

absolutely! i think that the island has definitely moved before, hence the clues in tunisia. Since we saw Charlotte arrive on the island and her amazement at seeing the island, it seemed like she'd been looking for this place a while.

As to where the island is moving...hmmmm. I think it will actually have more to do with "when." I think the time delay and all is going to be important later. I also think that John's journey is going to play into it as well. John's been on a major journey of self discovery as illustrated last night. I think he's going to have to finally choose his scientific side, instead of his warrior side to solve this problem.

If the GEOGRAPHICALLY move the island, then the bearing of 503 wouldn't be correct for those comming onto the island, right? So they wouldn't have the correct coordinance and wouldn't know how to get there, anyone feeling that'?

My guess is that they are going to move the island physically. Widmore has people who know where it is and they need to hide the island again. This may hamper Jack's ability to find his way back to the island.

It's gotta be when, not where. That explains A LOT...somehow, but I am not sure how just yet. LOL

Even in Lost, how would an island--which has very clearly been an island since the very beginning--be IN TUNISIA...off the coast of Tunisia, maybe, but not IN the actual country.

I agree! The movement is moving it WHEN, not where IMO...though I have no idea how they would do either one, LOL.

To move the entire island physically...just doesn't make sense to me YET...I'm open to either theory but the WHEN-in-time is the one I'm going with right now.

They are all gonna get in the water by the cliffs and PUUUSSSSSSHHHHHHH!

Or maybe they will do it the same way that Abbie Hoffman and the Yippies levitated the Pentagon...with the help of lots of hallucinogenic substances!
