First of all, I REALLY hope this gets published before the season 5 finale airs, I think I might be right here.Cuse and Lindelof have already said something to the extent of: the final season will find the core characters back on the island trying to find out why they crashed there in the first place.....now what does that mean I wonder? IT MEANS THAT JACK WILL DETONATE THE BOMB KILLING EVERYONE ON THE ISLAND. Then, our CORE Losties( jack, kate, sawyer, sayid, and hurley,claire ) will end up back on the damn beach looking at the damned crashed plane. ONLY, it not gonna be 815 because 815 did not crash, Jack prevented it. However, they are "meant" to go back to the island and they will all be, by coincidence(not knowing each other) in 2007, or 08 or even 09 on ANOTHER plane and it will crash there because they were meant to arrive there(aka course correction theory is boosted. I agree with it). but wait, i'm not q! uite done: I also think that even in season 1, there were alternate versions of the main characters running around( we KNOW this is possible, we saw Locke hide in the bushes to avoid being seen by Locke. AND future Locke manipulated what PAST Locke was told....people that has been happening for the entire show! LOSTIES 2(thats what i'll call em for now) have KNOWN about the events in 1-4 and have been MANIPULATING the entire series of events so everythign goes: like ELoise Hawking has said "the way its supposed to". Ok guys, think i'm close to the season 5 finale or not?
