| This theory has probably been expressed... If not... It all centers around the numbers and the Vanzetti Equation. Suppose that research scientists have used the equation, and summized that there will be some large cataclysmic event (or, socieities will kill each other off through wars) that will lead to the decimation of the human race in the near future. Preparing for this catastrophe, the researchers found an island, secluded and unknown to the world, whereby a select amount of individuals could survive in a "utopia"-like environment and prolong our race. This would explain Ben's "We are the Good Guys" comment. The island has some strange properties, which would have to be studied first. However, the island is not a completely welcoming host. While the island provides all the sustenance that the inhabitants need, one basic, important thing is lacking: they can not procreate. The island is no longer suited for their purposes, but they continue to experiment and solve this problem. Juliette is found. She gives them the hope that they can solve the riddle. This would explain the ruthfullness of the others. If they believe their efforts will eventually save the human race... well, they will let nothing will get in their way. This theory leaves many holes... Relationship between Dharma and the Others. Some of the Losties are critical to the story, but what about some of the others. For Example, Locke is clearly important. Although the Others have figured out many things about the island, there are still mysteries. How can Locke walk after a severed spinal cord? But, how does Jack fit into this theory? Or Kate? Or Sawyer? Or sayid? Or Hurley... can go on and on. Well, JJ Abrams had been working on a different pilot for ABC when he was approached with this idea. I beleive it had to do with complete strangers, unrelated to each other, but drawn together by events called "6 Degrees". Perhaps all of the character flashbacks are just showin how everyone and everything is more related than people think. Some recent movies have addressed these issues, such as Babylon and Magnolia (Tom Cruise was co-star in that movie --> Tom Cruise was star of Mission Impossible: 3 --> JJ Abrams wrote MI3). (On a side note... for next week, Locke is clearly messing with Sawyer... the man in the chair is not Ben, but more likely Locke's father, who may also be the man who ruined Sawyer's parents' marriage.) Anyway, idea, comments? Is this theory complete trash? Anyone want to expand upon it?? |
