Here's my thing....lets assume there are a TON of "casual" viewers who watch this show that dont follow every spoiler, re-watch DVDs, etc. Butthey still dont miss an ep.
When LOST finally wraps up a couple years how are they possibly going to tie in every single loose-end, and in a way people understand it? Wasnt there somewebsite that said there are over 100 semi-major things that have yet to be explained? (With more seemingly being added by the week LOL). And arent most of usalways going "oh ya I forgot about that in Season 2."
Seems everything is going to eventually tie-in and we are going to get a conclusion....but what if most viewers cant remember every little scene and clue fromthe past 4 years? What good does a clue about Jack's motions in the opening scene do if viewers havent seen that scene in 4 years?
Perhaps Im overthinking myself.

WOW!! You all are going to make me rewatch every episode of Lost over again to see how Jack acts. Plus the fact Jack was dying to go back on the island in one of the flash-forwards (with Kate by the airport), makes me think he would try and do anything to go back.
exactly, thats what i was thinking.
Another thing LOST related, Did we confirm it was Ben in the coffin? I know the area was a black neighborhood. But he is the only one I know that hasabsolutely no one that would come to his funeral. No family and certainly no friends. And the only short person to fit in a coffin that small and who elsewould Kate be so adamant. that she wouldnt go?

The baton laying beside Jack when he wakes up.
Right?
Yeah... it's hard to tell if it's actually the thing than Ben carries. If it is, so far it's just a weapon, but it could have something to do with time travel/teleportation/the Orchid, which could turn that whole opening scene of the pilot episode on its head...

The Episode where he takes them to the cave and finds the skeletons, the episode they discover the black rock. Season 1 is filled with a lot of stuff likethat.

I still like the idea that the opening scene with Jack on the ground in the pilot episode is Jack's second coming on the Island through time and the actualscene of everyone on the beach is from the initial crash and it just plays our mind like it's all one scene...ehh whatever though.
BTW, on a TOTALLY different note (just watching season 1 again). Boones death was sad. Sorry. Had to get that out.

I'm thinking the pilot episode's opening scene could be showing Jack wake up after teleporting/time travelling/being thrown in some timeloop, and he subconciously knows what to do but doesn't exactly remember having lived this part of his life already.
This could be connected to the Time Loop Theory of Ben being in a loop, although Ben knows what happens in his life which is why he has so much confidencein his plans.
nyc... is that the baton next to Jack? Or just a flashlight/debris?

heres something to think about...is Jack...Christian Shepard?
Meaning, he is living Christians life on the island. Think about it.

Dont know if thats inside info that you are leading us to or just you thinking out loud lol
Its interesting, but with the whole time travel scene with Faraday. He talked about sending 1 persons conciousness.
How would he be able to send your conciousness to someone elses body?
And something else I thought of...the physic what if she was just an agent for Widmore? And lied to claire.
I dont recall how seriously Claire took the "warning". But Christian must have given her a pretty good reason to
give up her son.

Here's a link to an interview with Evangeline Lily about the show. Doesn't say much about the finale, but still interesting.

I guess I've thought of something along the same lines...
An idea of mine is that Christian is somehow an old inhabitant of the island, like an "ageless" member of the Black Rock or one of the Hostiles orOthers (or are they all the same?), but somehow leaves it and ends up with a normal life. That's why he's so important and why the island is using himnow, and why he's "chosen."
Given what you're saying, perhaps the island is using Jack to do what Christian would do because Christian is now dead. Or a step further, it'sinfusing Jack with his dad's spirit and now Jack is playing his dad's role.
