In regards to that Chiefy, I’d like them all to sit down too and figure out how the heck they survived the original crash?!

Have they all been possessed from day 1?

The fact that many people survived the 815 crash has always bothered me… anyone?

I see your point with Richard….being the island is a no-go.

I’ve been wanting to see these Losties sit down in a circle and discuss things for once. I want them to have a 3 hour discussion about what THEY all think the smoke monster is. They have first hand experience, much better than theorists like us.

Haha…but he leaves at times. The island leaves itself? I concur that the losties Are NOT on the boat.

Remember that Sun asks who Jacob is? How many of them know of him? A lot of the O815 have had independent experiences…I think a convergence of those is necessary for a more complete revelation. Time for everyone to lay down their cards to see what they all collectively have.

I mean, sure, it would be fascinating and breathtaking to see the losties on the Black Rock, but what would really be the point? What would that mean or prove? That the island moves through time and space like we already know? Sorry, I’m being cynical. But it would basically waste more time for us.

The writers need to start showing WHY the losties are there, instead of just showing us that they came to the island numerous times in the past whether by boat or plane. It just wouldn’t teach us anything in my opinion.

And….if Richard is an Egyptian, been there since the beginning of time, then I think we know who Jacob and MIB answer to. Richard would be the man behind the men. THE island himself.

And, TawaretsAnkh, I really liked your “Richard the Egyptian” theory.. I think it’s probably more plausible in some ways than saying he came off the Black Rock..

Touching the blanket that Aaron’s wrapped in would be perhaps equal to touching someone on the shoulder because they have a shirt on.. he’s touching the shirt, not the person? Simply because we have seen or not seen him do something doesn’t mean he can or can’t.. especially since we’ve only seen him a handful of times for short durations..

directingthekill, congrats on providing us with some very original, creative thinking in your theory.

II really like some of the ideas that you have presented.

Very nice first theory….hope to be reading more from you.

Chiefof16.. the Losties could technically be on the Black Rock if the island “moved” again, time-skipping back in time with them on the Island.. or maybe they end up in the Gobi Desert and make their way back via the Black Rock..

Christian was holding Aaron, wasn’t he? He also picked up the picture frame of the DHARMA recruits and held the lamp in the frozen wheel chamber..

Interesting theory on Nemesis taking the form of Locke who is more “special” than Yemi or Christian, though. I also like the idea of Losties being on the Black Rock. I mean, what a great image that would be for the very end of the finale; Jack, Locke, Kate all stepping off the ship onto the island.. and bringing mining equipment (found on the ship wreckage by Locke) to maybe hit the pocket of energy, releasing the electromagnetism way before DHARMA ever got there.. And no one has answered my question.. why does everyone think Richard arrived on the Black Rock other than he’s been there a long time and so has the ship..?..

I think your “war” idea is awesome. You’re saying the war IS the game between Jacob and assface. Jacob picks out the people he thinks gives him the best chance to win. Really cool.

However, MIB initially asks Jacob “How’d they find the island?”, referring to the ship. He would know by now if this has happened numerous times, at least I would think.

Personally, I’m really confused about how the losties could be alive and kicking on a slave ship in the 1800′s. It’s a fun thing to think about, but how this could come to be seems beyond explainable in 1 season.

You have some cool ideas. I like the Black Rock being the end game/beginning of a new cycle type thing. I just don’t think MIB has ever seen that ship before.

Nice goin on a really decent first post.
