Would it scare you to know that my Ipod has every single Aqua song ever made?

HAPPY LOST DAY!

I just watched this trailer or promo or whatever it's called.

Somewhat spoilerish, but exceptionally cool.

What the what?

So "it worked," the island sunk and they all went back to their not so great lives in LA, yet they are still back on the island after the hatch blew? So even though they changed the past, they are destined to be back on the island at that time and place? Or are their two parallel universes? It's going to be an interesting season.

I'm cheating by reading the Lostpedia, where someone else has done the work of pointing things out to me. That may help.

That sounds like no fun at all.

I'm really sad about Locke. The only one who loved the island is dead and being usedby smokey/man in black to destroy it. I also just love his backstory. I wonder if his body willl end up in the temple. It would be fitting.

BTW, I half expect Sawyer to demand to dig Juliet up nnow that Sayiid is alive.

Me, too.

I enjoyed the show but seeing him, in the plane in the 'after' shots, his conversations, made me sad.

I really hope they aren't playing with alternate universes, but I suspect they are.

CP - I agree. But why are some people who die dead and others come back. Are they coming back as themselves? Is Sayid really Sayid? Or is he now Jacob?

Some random thoughts:

I don't think Locke is Locke. I think the dark guy (Esu? I can't remember his name!) is taking the shape of Locke so people follow him.

We know how that the ash around Jacob's cabin was to keep Smoky out and when they showed the broken line Smoky had gotten in the island. But why was Jacob saying "Help Me".

I'm starting to lean toward the religious aspect of it (Christian Sheppard, when Sayid was lifted from the water his arms were outstretched and he has a look similar to Jesus depicted in images...). I hope it's not the case but I'm starting to think it may be.

Did anyone else catch the Dharma logo on the shark in the underwater scene? I was so excited to finally see something.

It was nice to see the kidnapped characters, including the children. It was also nice to see Rose and Bernard, and Charlie... who was supposed to die. I wonder if Claire is pregnant again.

When did they shoot the flare off (was it season 1)? They did it for the signal transmission, I think. When they showed it Richard looked petrified. So is that the same flare that the Losties shot off or a different one?

It very much seems like alternate universes. At first I thought the bomb may have split them off into a different time-line, but it seems to be more than that. E.g., Hurley now considers himself to be "the luckiest guy in the world [universe?]." That's a huge change in personality. And Desmond was on the plane? He should have already been on the island entering the code every 108 minutes.

Locke is dead. I don't think there's any question about that. Man In Black/Smokey is definitely masquerading as Locke and I don't think he's hiding that fact now.

No, when was that? The opening when they were "flying" underwater at the beginning, showing the sunken island or when Sayid was being "drowned"?

Then Desmond disappeared. Did he move seats or is he time traveling again?

When they were showing the sunken island. It was shortly before they showed the statue foot.

Yes, I am quoting myself:

Or was it to keep Smoky in the cabin. We learned that Ben can control Smoky and it looked like Smoky lived in a cave in the Others' village but now it seems that isn't the case.

I think it was to keep Smoky/UnLocke in. And I think that Ben only thinks he can control the smoke monster. He's got to be not so sure now...
