LOST Season 5 - Page 17

- Most of this pre-assumes that Mr. X took over Locke's dead body, which I think is a very obvious conclusion and not much debate over it.

- At the beginning, Jacob and Mr. X are wearing white and black cloths. Anyone else remember the white and black stones found on two dead bodies waaaay back in season 1? This supports theory of a game being played by two people, struggling to win. Is the game smokey vs jacob?
- Undeniably, there are signs of Egyptian myths everywhere.
- Smokey is black.
- Smokey's temple is underground, and he has been known to take the form of dead people. Therefore i would propose that smokey represents death/death god. I'd make a guess that he/it would have to be Anubis.
- The statue holds two Ankhs in its hand. Ankhs represent eternal life. Which ever god the statue represents, it would be a god of life.
- Jacob weaves, Tapestry of Fate anyone?
- Jacob lives in the statue, Richard works for him, Richard is granted a very long life.
- REAL Locke was already granted life once, when he got pushed from the building.
- Jacob's goal is to bring people to the island. As seen with the black rock ship, as seen with Hugo.
- People Jacob talked to include the oceanic six.
- He DIDNT talk to Ben and Juliet. Those two are arguably the most important characters in the finale because they were in position to make final changes.
- Jacob reminds ben that he has free will. Jacob cannot influence ben like he can the others. Likewise Juliet's flashback was the only one that did not have Jacob in it.
- If DeadLocke is indeed smokey in disguise, then Richard's Journey of bringing the leader to Jacob would mean that he is actually just bringing Ben. Ben remains the leader, he just doesn't know he is being manipulated.
- DeadLocke's weapon of choice for Ben was a knife. An intimate and primitive weapon compared to a gun.
- This is all starting to look very much like an old cliche. Where Gods play and manipulate men. But at the final confrontation, Man still has free will to decide. Ben has the final decision to kill or not to kill, Juliet also has the final decision on exploding the bomb (although she seems to have less obvious alternative choices given her predicament)
- Fat guy who helped carry Locke's body was also in the van that kidnapped Miles momentarily to tell him that They are the good guys and Miles is on the wrong side.
- "Breaking the Loop" might not be a good thing. If the loop is the cycle of Life, Death, Rebirth, then killing Jacob might not be a good idea.
- Juliet's original duties was a fertility expert, Jacob is the God of fertility.
- After Jacob's death, no more live births on the island. Yes his death happens in the most current time zone, but assuming he is present in all time zones, maybe his first death would cause all future/past loops to feel the effect? Shaky ground here.
- We KNOW that people dont all die after the Incidient because the survivors must have lived to build the Hatch. Presumably Dr. Chang and rest of Oceanic six. But what of the Blast Door Map?
- LOL i loved it when Miles came up and said what was on the audience's mind. Lawl jack really should have thought of that.
- Razinski must be somehow connected with the Numbers? Since that was what the DHARMA folk came to do in the first place, and yet theres very little mention of the Numbers in this season, besides the screen with the Hatch Door being installed.
- Conclusion might be painfully obvious to people, but i just enjoy connecting the evidence and looking into the mythology.

In response to previous posts:
- Who said anything about Juliet dying?
- Richard is not a referee. He works for Jacob and that has been stated by himself and many other characters. If anything he facilitates the game.
- Normal rules don't apply in LOST. Get over it. You should already know that the moment smokey appeared and all the other impossible things happened. Stop bitching about it.

This is fucking crazy but every time I hear about or see them I keep thinking Lost is going to do some crazy shit at the ending and show a world where everyone has 6 sets of digits on each hand and foot, marking some huge change in the world or something. I don't fucking know.

lol dude what are u smoking XD i mean that would be fucking strange/awesome but the four toed statue is a rather obvious pointer towards Egyptian mythology.

just watched the finale and wow... This is exactly why I watch this show.

who do you guys think the fake john locke is? It's probably the guy from the beginning who was talking to jacob on the beach but who the hell is he? Fuck that episode was so damn good..
