The man in black did not turn into the smoke monster, he simply relesed it and it choose to take the form of the man in black. It later took form of sevral other people.
vvvContinuation...drug the subjects and put those fancy glasses on them (that we see on Carl when Ben imprisons him in S3) and play that psychedelic video with "Jacob Loves You" flashing throughout. That procedure insures that the subject completely loses his memory of being interrogated by The Dharma Folk.(This is also answered in "The New Man In Charge" you can find bits of it here on You Tube. Just type in Lost-The New Man In Charge 5.Ask Darlton or deduce your own answer.Show Re-watch helps.
vvvContinued..The poor Dharma guys have a whole heap (a shoutout to LOST fans maybe?) of questions naturally having worked for 15years after Dharmas demise,so in true LOST style Ben puts on a Dharma Video on "The Hydra" station for them to watch, which really doesn't explain a helluva lot.Apart from Polar Bears are dangerous:don't pet them and Room 23 was used to interrogate "The Hostiles/The Others" about the island and to find out who Jacob is.After interrogation they'd drug the subjects cont^
3.Ben had to prove his devotion to "The Others" and instigated "the purge" so that Richard would make Ben "The Leader".It was all Ben's idea.Very soon after Ben banished Widmore(This is explained in 5.09)4.The Food Drops come from two guys working in a Dharma Factory,who have no contact with the island and keep doing the drops for 15yrs after Dharmas demise.Ben (as Hurleys 2nd in charge) finally delivers them both very generous redundancy pay and let's the confused fellas ask a question each^^
1.Walt was important because he was supposed to BECOME the leader of the island after Jacob.Hurley and Ben eventually tracked him down (poor guy ended up in santa rosa) and brought him back to take on "The Leader" role.(This is answered in the mini ep. "The New Man in Charge" 2.The people shooting at Sawyer & crew in the outrigger were Ilanas group of Jacob's body guards (this is answered when they find an Ajira flight water bottle in one of the outriggers,so they jumped forward to 2007)contind^
I think the main 2 that bothered me was the Walt storyline, and the Dharma drops. The people that were shooting at Sawyer & the others were in the future.
this is old but the guys name is "Barry" In a episode they put on after lost that never aired or something they mentioned his name. it was a funny episode though:p
4 continued: look at bonus features of the last season and you see hurley show up at the dharma food warehouse and he tells them they dont need to do it anymore. 5) the man in black's name was never revelead. only thing that he was called was the man in black. did you even watch the series? it shows most of your questions answers, rewatch it and you realize you missed some stuff.
1) walt and everyone on board was a candidate. the black smoke slowly AKA the man in black slowly killed all the candidates off. They wanted to raise walt for him to trust them and take over jacobs job eventually but traded him for 3 candidates when michael struck a deal. 3) it was jacobs call to retake the island and protect it from the dharma initiative and ben was the whole key to it. 4) there was a food pallet option on the computer after the chess game at the flame station...
to everybody posting that all of these questions were answered, then what are the answers? since you guys seem to know everything, please enlighten us with your knowledge.
@needaquickaccount 1.Walt WAS going to become the new protector, he had psionic abilities(One of Dharmas studies). 2.Crew from the black rock during time jumps, 3.During the purge Charles Widmore was the leader, but as Dharma continually broke the truce it was a group decision that Ben was happy with. 4.Dharma stations off the island, these were periodically automated, even after the purge.5.The light is the doorway to the afterlife, when the living enter their body is killed but CONT---
@LostFanBoy1 Their consciousness is taken/claimed by the darkness/evil that exists under the light, which then escapes as a physical manifistation of evil/electromagnetic fog anomaly.
1]Walt needed to go back to the island and help hurley protect it.Ben and Hurley take him back to the island
2] Left for viewers to guess
3]Jacobs hate for modern technology could have lead to the purge of the Dharma people.They answer to Jacob
4]Dharma employees in Guam sent supplies to the island. They heard nothing of the purdge 5]MIB was evil and the island could not let him leave.He's cursed. He has no name since his mother died before she could see she had twins, naming only one child.
EM in the real world can cause healing and thus pregnancy problems, time fluctuations ect, Electromagnetism is a natural phenomenon, no one knows exactly where it comes from in the real world by you want a tv series to answer it?? However they kinda did in a "Fantasy" way, the EM energy is the by product of the "Source" which is the "source of life, death and rebirth" The gateway to the afterlife.
I don't know if this is what the writers were thinking, but let's be a bit realistic here. This is a fantasy show, not sci-fi. They don't go into the science of the show. So the way this works is you have a group of completely normal human beings thrown into a fantasy world they didn't know or understand. Wouldn't the point be that they never fully understood what was going on? Sure people want everything tied up neatly, but in the provided situation, EVERYTHING on the island would be foreign.
@GradGamer Yeah it was!! 1.Timetravel is a result of the EM energy and exotic matter which can sustain a wormhole. 2.The EM anomalies are the reasons for the healing properties, the pregnancy issues, the plane crashing, the time delays on and off the island, why the island is invisible from outside the em radius ect. 3.Psionic abilities while arent Proven are often said to cause/or caused by EM disturbances. 4.Teleportation is a result of the EM field being compressed and expanded>>>>
@smokeyhatch14 Add to this the negative exotic matter that can keep a wormhole open and you have teleportation. As i said however LOST was a show about both sci fi and fantasy, from the very first episode.
@smokeyhatch14 Only one and four were explained about why they were. Nothing for two and three. Explaining what the anomalies did doesn't explain why they were there.
@GradGamer In fantasy shows the science behind them may not be explained but the story should... People aren't complaining about how is a smoke monster scientifically possible. They are complaining about some parts of the story that weren't explained
@franklouuu Well your example only sees to back up my argument because the smoke monster, by story standards, was explained. All you needed to know was that he was the "Man in Black" and he could take the form of pretty much anything and embodied all evil on the island. Any further questions would be aimed toward the possibility of such an entity, which would bring the question of fantasy or sci-fi into frame. Because this question was never answer, fantasy would be the logical choice.
@GradGamer When I referred to "some parts of the story that weren't explained" I wasn't referring to the smoke monster, because they gave a (lame) explanation for its existance. I only used the smoke monster example to show that people don't care about scientific explanations in fantasy shows.
@franklouuu Well you must understand that only a certain amount of information is required to help viewers understand the plot as a whole, so certain points that you or other people might be thinking could possibly be irrelevant to the main purpose of the story and the characters. Of which scenarios were you thinking?
@LostFanBoy1 Hello "LostFanBoy". Search this in google: "geekscape the top ten questions 'lost' never answered". Yeah, you can give your own explanation or interpretation but they weren't in fact explained
These are one of my favourite questions. Anyway, the biggest problem wasn't the lack of explanation but the explanations in fact that were very silly sometimes
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@LostFanBoy1 Ahaha "Fanboy"... Sorry, they weren't explained in fact.. They even tried to explain some of them outside the show which is even worse...
Sorry, but lost writers didn't plan things soon enough or simply liked to add some nonsense to the series which made the last seasons very silly
@franklouuu JAJAJA Sorry, BUT THEY WERE EXPLAINED...FACT.They made some extras that delved a little deeper into what they had ALREADY ANSWERED to appease the spoonfed generation, ie YOU. Your bubble has BURST, byeee.
@franklouuu Jajaja I AM RIGHT, Get over it lol.. I never said LOST was "Perfect" No show is, But people like you are full of shit, you dont have a clue.
I don't know if this is what the writers were thinking, but let's be a bit realistic here. This is a fantasy show, not sci-fi. They don't go into the science of the show.

@ryanb00rke At the time of the purge Widmore was the leader, he ordered it but yes Ben complied.
The smoke monster was a combination of "Evil incarnate"(The "dark" part of the "source" and the MIB's "Infected" consciousness, Heis body was killed and thrust out of the cave because the light is not for "Physical" entities but metaphysical as it is the doorway to the afterlife. If you want a pure scientific answer, youre watching the wrong show, watch the discovery channel.
@isaiaselcaco They did not use a "cheap religious solution," the ending was NOT religious but sporitual as was the WHOLE SHOW, and this ending was definately in tone with the entire show, it was foreshadowed in the pilot.
Ok, maybe I'm the only one whom this bugs the hell out of, but for once I'd just like somebody to place THE FRIGGEN NUMBERS somewhere on their list of unanswered LOST questions. Has everyone forgotten them?! Cuz we here still have not effing clue what they were all about
#4 you find the answer in the epilogue, the workers still think dharma exists so they continue to send air drops etc, watch the epilogue its all there
How could have the smoke monster not have been MiB? The mother made it so Jacob and MiB couldn't kill each other. So if MiB wasn't the smoke monster , then why didn't the monster just kill Jacob ? She made MiB immortal because he was her favorite , and originally wanted him to become protector, but Jacob was NOT immortal. So obviously the Smoke monster is MiB.
@EliazGonza I mean, BEFORE Jacob hit him in the head, the MIB was clearly NOT the smoke monster. The one who wants to escape the island is NOT the MIB, is the smoke monster. You're right, it could be that Mother was the smoke monster initially and that she tricked Jacob into killing his brother so that he could become the new smoke monster, but before that HE WASN'T. In the rest, we agree.
Answer #5: The "man in black" was NEVER the smoke monster, dear. Remember that Jacob finds his brother's body. The smoke monster was trapped in the cave ALREADY, and that was the reason the Light needed a protector. Having the power to take the form of dead people, the smoke took over Jacob's brother's body. The real question is, though, why throwing a dead body into the bright cave set the smoke monster free? And, ultimately, where did both the light and the smoke monster come from anyway?
@maujo2009 The smoke monster came out because the light is literally the source of life, and only the dead can become recycled into this energy, MIB was alive when he entered the cave, his body was killed by the EM but was thrust out and the darkness latched onto MIB's consiousness and escaped.
Answer to #2: It would've been so cool that Juliet, Sawyer, et al, realized that the people in the other canoe was just themselves! The loop starts w/ them jumping in and finding out that they're being shot, then jumping back in time and realizing that the shooters are now ahead of them and since they were shot, they shoot back. But they're shooting at themselves!
they kidnaped walt vbecause they were goiong to make him there leader... if you noticed in the show richard is always going to people at a very young age and thats because there looking for there leader. walt was very special. the people dropping the stuff was the eye patch guy keeping them fed so ben and his team could keep doing experiments.
@slickrick2585 Sorry, you're very wrong (about one thing for sure). Richard visits Locke at at a very young age, and only Locke. That's because we know Locke told Richard that he was their leader in the past. And even though Locke "wasn't quite ready", I still think Richard knew he was THE Locke.
The cave the MIB goes into is the source of all "light" and is a source of massive electromagnitism. Essentially the MIB's body was unable to withstand the electromagnetic forces and all that was left was the evil of his soul (he was a murderer). Personified by black smoke, he burst from the cave because he had to flee the light.
@MrWarcraft1000 Perfect! This explanation was the smartest one I read. All of your explanations, and they pretty much explain it, I also want to add that Ben was manipulated( Like you said ) Because he kept going to the shack to get orders , but as stated by one of Jacobs followers , he has never used it , and someone else has been using it , so he must have been getting orders from Man In Black thinking it was Jacob , since he has never met Jacob he could have easily been lied to by M.i.B
Dharma Supply drops were still made because the island was constantly moving through time and space explained by eloise before the "Oceanic 6" return to the island. This leaves it plausible (not fully explained) that the drops might not have had a regular schedule but instead were dropped based on the equations shown on the map during that explanation scene.
Ben was behind the purge, although it was the Man in Black's Idea. Ben was manipulated by the man in black his whole life. We find out that Ben was a candidate whos name was crossed out by Jacob when Ben became corrupt by commiting Murder {assumed reason}.
1. While it's true that Walt wasn't fully explained in detail we know a few things. First was that he made it off the island and survived. Secondly he was SO important to the others because like his father, he was a candidate. Thats why he may have had special powers. Like Hugo's seeing the dead or like Miles' ability.
New information since I got the Lost collector's set: A page out of someone's diary (it would seem) seems to suggest that the canoe firing at our Losties wasnt Ajira 316, but a little boat off Hanso's boat. They sent an away team to check the island and determine a location. Only one man returned alive, claiming they got into 'musket fire' with another vessel, which promptly disappeared into a flash of light. Then everyone but him went crazy and jumped off into the water and drowned.
@TooDuelForSchool Although it's pretty much been settled that they were getting shot at from other Ajira 316 passengers from the future or whatever, that would have been so awesome.
From what you said the smoke monster only takes the shape or form of dead people on the island. When Sharon is in jungle, Walt appears, this is after the raft is overthrown by the others. Walt wasn't in fact dead yet since in late season 3 I believe the others finally give Walt back to Michale on the boat...
@1800thedrew When Shannon saw Walt in the Jungle it was NOT the smoke moster it was actually Walt, He had the ability to astral project himself outside his physical body. This was one f the branches of study conducted by the DI as the island seemed to boosts these abilities. Walt could have experienced these events without realising they were real, he may have thought they were dreams, as a lot of people that allegedly AP have no reccollection.
@Rude666 I could be more inclined to believe your right about the "Taller Walt" vision, but i think the season 2 vision was definately Walt. I would love to read your theory.
@smokeyhatch14 If you type "forum lostpedia i figured out walt once and for all" into google you can read the post. I just re read my post because it was from a while ago and while I might have been reaching a bit for the answer thats what you have to do when you answer the Walt mystery.
@Rude666 Thanks man, will do. I know we dont agree on everything (Especially our methods of discussion lol) but i think you are one of the sharpest fans floating around youtube when it comes to Lost, I seriously doubt whether most of the "haters" even watched the show.
@smokeyhatch14 Thanks. I think sometimes when you talk to "haters" you need to calm down. At the end of the day, we both know the quality of the show, we both know how well the story comes together(although not perfectly) but its a difficult show to understand. Its easy to us of course, but it takes some serious knowledge of the series to understand it like we do and you cant fault these "haters" for that. Just be happy that you yourself know the quality of the show.
@Rude666 True, they just wind me up with some of the ignorant things they churn out lol.. I would never say Lost is perfect, nothing will EVER be perfect, espescially a tv show/movie, But some people just dont have a clue what they are on about.
Ive googled your theory but on the lostpedia page there are many theories, which one is yours?
@Rude666 I'd love to see your theory too. Especially since Walt was still alive through the entire series and Smokey could only mimic dead people. (I actually thought that Walt was "the island", as in Jacob causing mirages).
@AcrossTheEchoes If you type "forum lostpedia i figured out walt once and for all" into google you can read the post. I just re read my post because it was from a while ago and while I might have been reaching a bit for the answer thats what you have to do when you answer the Walt mystery.
The lack of basic intelligence among some of you posters is frightening, Serioiusly EVERY ONE of these and the 700+ other questions LOST asked were answered and if you use just a tiny piece of your brain you too will realize this.
@AcrossTheEchoes Thank you for not being an idiot like so many other Lost watchers. I can't tell you how many time I have heard "Wait, they were dead the whole time right?". If people pay attention and use a little brainpower and imagination, all the questions can be answered.
@HurleysDharmaVan Oh GOSH.... Everyone who asks that question seriously...I just want to punch them in the face. Of course they weren't dead! If they were dead, what would've been the point of them dying? You can't die once you're already dead! The lack of intelligence in this world scares me more than the intelligence does.
@AcrossTheEchoes even those jars in jacobs cabin? tbh i don't think everything can be answered. i think those mysteries were introduced to hook us viewers thus making more money for the producers. i don't think they ever cared that much about the answers and most of them really suck (btw that's not my opinion they just do) like two guys working in a warehouse still doing supply drops, what a terrible attempt i think we deserve better than that piece of shit answer.
@calzagheisthebest Jars in Jacob's cabin? What about the sand on the beach? I still haven't figured out what all that sand was for...
Mysteries ARE introduced to hook viewers, but Answers are as important to hook viewers as mysteries are, cause a writer would like an audience to watch other things they write, so they're not going to be as snobby and stupid as you're saying. You just need to pay attention. The drop thing mightve been boring, but it was a realistic and solid answer.
@AcrossTheEchoes you're comparing beach sand to those jars with strange yellow liquid in which the producers made a point to focus the camera on? when that cabin was 1st shown it was a solid insight into the leader of the others so naturally every inch was scrutinized by the vast majority of fans. i'm not the only one who really wanted to know wtf they were, remember the picture of vincent too, turns out that was nothing.... you to me are a fucking idiot and i don't wanna talk to you, seriously
@calzagheisthebest do you nkow how creepy it was to see a picture of vincent in that cabin or atleast a dog that looked completely similar??? that shit was compelling i remember thinking wtf is vincent or who's dog is he and then they locke focuses on those jars. it feels like the producers were gonna go somewhere with that but ran out of time in the show or something. don't compare all that to the fucking sand on the beach you moron. ffs why can't you fan boys realise what i'm saying........
@calzagheisthebest The jars in thecabin are of no importance to any mystery, and it is easy to explain in one of 2 ways. 1.The cabin previously belonged to Horace who was a scientist, scientists often have jars of strange liquids. 2.In the cabin there was at least 1 painting and painting supplies, maybe the jars were of paint. but again its of no importance to anything.
@smokeyhatch14 Agreed. The numbers also had no real meaning. This was called "apophenia", which is when people try to find meaning in things that have no meaning. You don't have to dig THAT deep with Lost.
@AcrossTheEchoes I disagree about the numbers, they were important and we were given enough hints to understand them, but for the show to "Explain" them in a complex way it would have taken away from the mystery and emotion of the show.
@AcrossTheEchoes Except that Lost made a huge big deal out of the numbers. The numbers were important from before flight 815 ever crashed on the island, and they were also Hurley's numbers. So.. what were the numbers about?
@mongobeetle The numbers themselves are just numbers. (Although, 108 symbolizes the journey from darkness to light, so the equation wasn't random at all). From what I understand, The Valenzetti Equation was a complex equation determining when the world would end, and no matter what factors they used for the equation it kept coming out to 4 8 15 16 23 42. The Dharma Initiative was then created to try and change those numbers. I need to see whatever stuff the Valenzetti came from though
@mongobeetle because since I haven't seen whatever mobisode or game or what that they actually explained the Valenzetti equation, I don't know why it wasn't in the series itself, or how an equation determining WHEN something will happen comes out to "4 8 15 16 23 42". Does that mean April 8th 2015 at 4:23 PM and 42 seconds? That seems the most likely answer to me, otherwise why the heck would they bother trying to change it? But I'm just guessing. I need to see those internet and game things.
@mongobeetle S6, E5: "Lighthouse" There's a list of names on a gear in the lighthouse. ALL of the candidates names are numbered. The remaining uncrossed off names match up to the numbers. The only exception is Austin (Kate) her number is 51, but we learn later in season 6 that she's no longer a candidate.
15- Ford
16 - Jarrah
23 - Shephard
42 - Kwon
The "others" work for Jacob who made this list, probably where the Dharma folks got the numbers from for the hatch.
@MrWarcraft1000 I think you're missing the point and making a circular argument, those numbers were in existence probably from before Ford Jarrah etc were even born, so they hold a much bigger significance than just matching up to the names of the candidates.
@AcrossTheEchoes The numbers correspond to the list of candidates.
4 Lock, 8 Reyes, 15 Ford, 16 Jarrah, 23 Shephard, 42 Kwon. As shown on the lighthouse dial and in the cave that Locke takes Sawyer to in season 6.
The "others" know the list as we find out when we see Sayid get ressurected in the temple. Ben was an "other" since age 12 and that's how the Dharma folks got the numbers. Hurley got the numbers from a guy that went nuts during the accident at the hatch. Done.
And finally, you don't become the smoke monster. Jacob's brother was killed by a shred of evil itself -- They even show Jacob laying his brother's dead body to rest. The smoke monster is able to take on the appearance of dead people on the island. Oh, and he had no name, because the crazy lady killed his mom before she could think of one - she hadn't been expecting twins.
1. Walt was not more important than anyone else. The Others used him as a pawn to get Jack, Kate, and Sawyer. And Ben explaining it later on wouldn't have fit in anywhere, even with people asking questions. 2. People from Flight 316 were shooting at Sawyer's group in that time jump. 3. It's most likely Ben was behind the purge. He's lied about other things. 4. There are a couple guys sending food packs from a special warehouse, who have no idea what they're doing (Hurley finally fired them).
@LostFanBoy1 why did the hatch countdown clock spell out underworld in egyptian heiroglyphs and why would dharma an american research company incorporate egyptian heiroglyphs into there hatch? who cut the orientation video in half and why? what were those jars of yellow liquid in jacobs cabin? why does unplugging a rock in the ground summon the smoke monster?? help me to understand
@calzagheisthebest Ok1.There are many translations for the glyphs, one os "Inderworld" one is "Afterlife" these both make perfect sense, The underworld is a term often used refering to "Hell" which Hurley stated would be where they all go if they fail to stop MIB, "Afterlife" is the place they were rewarded with for beating him. Dharma put them on because there were egyptian ruins on the Island when they arrived. CONT>>>
@calzagheisthebest 2.Raszinsky cut the tape to keep the possibility of the Losties seeing their future selves in the past. 3.The Cabin was previously owned by Horace...a scientist, put 2 and 2 together. 3. It wasnt the unplugging that summoned him, it was the fact that there was now a way in through the hole, remember smokey cannot travel through water. Your ill informed rants are like those of a child.
@LostFanBoy1 thanks you actually cleared alot of that up. i don't give a fuck about arguing with you i just want some answers. everything you said today was right, and your answers made alot of sense (especially the monster plug hole). thanks to you i can actually watch lost again. lost was and still is the best show i've ever watched and i used to stay up for hours researching into theorys and mysteries and after the finale i didn't quite understand it all. seriously thanks for that
@Fileaxx ok lets introduce some mind blowing mystery show only to never answer it but still blow peoples minds, makes a shit load of money then leave and say "that's what made our show so great we called it lost and then mind fucked you all surprise cockfags!!!" terrible losers logic, put it this way i wouldn't have given two fucks about lost if i knew how it was gonna end and i want my 6 years back.
no, this show is just shit, you said urself, they didnt even answer how hurley dies, and how the fuk r u supposed to know that hurley brings walt to the island, fucking fagget
@THEAuburnFTW Lol, Im the "No life piece of shit" HAHA you fucking sad little cocksucker, i have a great life with 3 beatiful children and beautiful wife, nice house etc, what do you goy bitch? I mean apart from an obsession with a tv series you dont like, oh and an incompetent brain. Lol.. go fuck your mother, i did.
@fanof360 Nothing "Alleged about them pal, oh and before you attackme take a look at the things he has said to me, imnot the only one being insulting.
@Rude666 Im not attacking their opinions, im replying to people with the same mallice they give to me, ie "im not a lost freak like you, get fuked u no life piece of shit," "fucking fagget" "WOW, youre such a fkin retard" etc etc.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@smokeyhatch14 "what do you goy?", lol fucking loser, all you do is go commenting on any lost related video, you may have kids but you have no life, btw i dont give a fuck about your life, you dont have to go telling me your life stories lol, fucking loser, get a life, and plz dont reply back, if you do, then you seriously have no life
@THEAuburnFTW Awww Shucks have i hurt your feelings you fucking cretin? I do this during my work ours you giant dildo, I have no life? Phaaha, I run my own sports superstore you faggot, get over yourself, If you dont want people attacking your opinions on things, first get a clue about the subject at hand lol..
walt becomse the new jacob, there's two men who are still being paid to send palletts of food to those coordinates but ben goes to shut that down, we also see that the "Hurley bird" was a dharma experiment... among other things....
number 1 and 2 really didnt bug me that much, and as for the rest, good questions, but They dont bother me either..

1) walt and everyone on board was a candidate. the black smoke slowly AKA the man in black slowly killed all the candidates off. They wanted to raise walt for him to trust them and take over jacobs job eventually but traded him for 3 candidates when michael struck a deal. 3) it was jacobs call to retake the island and protect it from the dharma initiative and ben was the whole key to it. 4) there was a food pallet option on the computer after the chess game at the flame station...

EM in the real world can cause healing and thus pregnancy problems, time fluctuations ect, Electromagnetism is a natural phenomenon, no one knows exactly where it comes from in the real world by you want a tv series to answer it?? However they kinda did in a "Fantasy" way, the EM energy is the by product of the "Source" which is the "source of life, death and rebirth" The gateway to the afterlife.

I don't know if this is what the writers were thinking, but let's be a bit realistic here. This is a fantasy show, not sci-fi. They don't go into the science of the show. So the way this works is you have a group of completely normal human beings thrown into a fantasy world they didn't know or understand. Wouldn't the point be that they never fully understood what was going on? Sure people want everything tied up neatly, but in the provided situation, EVERYTHING on the island would be foreign.

@franklouuu Well your example only sees to back up my argument because the smoke monster, by story standards, was explained. All you needed to know was that he was the "Man in Black" and he could take the form of pretty much anything and embodied all evil on the island. Any further questions would be aimed toward the possibility of such an entity, which would bring the question of fantasy or sci-fi into frame. Because this question was never answer, fantasy would be the logical choice.
GradGamer 1 month ago
@GradGamer When I referred to "some parts of the story that weren't explained" I wasn't referring to the smoke monster, because they gave a (lame) explanation for its existance. I only used the smoke monster example to show that people don't care about scientific explanations in fantasy shows.

@ryanb00rke At the time of the purge Widmore was the leader, he ordered it but yes Ben complied.
The smoke monster was a combination of "Evil incarnate"(The "dark" part of the "source" and the MIB's "Infected" consciousness, Heis body was killed and thrust out of the cave because the light is not for "Physical" entities but metaphysical as it is the doorway to the afterlife.

How could have the smoke monster not have been MiB? The mother made it so Jacob and MiB couldn't kill each other. So if MiB wasn't the smoke monster , then why didn't the monster just kill Jacob ? She made MiB immortal because he was her favorite , and originally wanted him to become protector, but Jacob was NOT immortal. So obviously the Smoke monster is MiB.
EliazGonza 1 month ago
@EliazGonza I mean, BEFORE Jacob hit him in the head, the MIB was clearly NOT the smoke monster. The one who wants to escape the island is NOT the MIB, is the smoke monster. You're right, it could be that Mother was the smoke monster initially and that she tricked Jacob into killing his brother so that he could become the new smoke monster, but before that HE WASN'T. In the rest, we agree.
maujo2009 1 month ago
Answer #5: The "man in black" was NEVER the smoke monster, dear. Remember that Jacob finds his brother's body. The smoke monster was trapped in the cave ALREADY, and that was the reason the Light needed a protector. Having the power to take the form of dead people, the smoke took over Jacob's brother's body. The real question is, though, why throwing a dead body into the bright cave set the smoke monster free? And, ultimately, where did both the light and the smoke monster come from anyway?

EliazGonza 1 month ago
@maujo2009 The smoke monster came out because the light is literally the source of life, and only the dead can become recycled into this energy, MIB was alive when he entered the cave, his body was killed by the EM but was thrust out and the darkness latched onto MIB's consiousness and escaped.

The cave the MIB goes into is the source of all "light" and is a source of massive electromagnitism. Essentially the MIB's body was unable to withstand the electromagnetic forces and all that was left was the evil of his soul (he was a murderer). Personified by black smoke, he burst from the cave because he had to flee the light.

@MrWarcraft1000 Perfect! This explanation was the smartest one I read. All of your explanations, and they pretty much explain it, I also want to add that Ben was manipulated( Like you said ) Because he kept going to the shack to get orders , but as stated by one of Jacobs followers , he has never used it , and someone else has been using it , so he must have been getting orders from Man In Black thinking it was Jacob , since he has never met Jacob he could have easily been lied to by M.i.B

Dharma Supply drops were still made because the island was constantly moving through time and space explained by eloise before the "Oceanic 6" return to the island. This leaves it plausible (not fully explained) that the drops might not have had a regular schedule but instead were dropped based on the equations shown on the map during that explanation scene.

Ben was behind the purge, although it was the Man in Black's Idea. Ben was manipulated by the man in black his whole life. We find out that Ben was a candidate whos name was crossed out by Jacob when Ben became corrupt by commiting Murder {assumed reason}.

1. While it's true that Walt wasn't fully explained in detail we know a few things. First was that he made it off the island and survived. Secondly he was SO important to the others because like his father, he was a candidate. Thats why he may have had special powers. Like Hugo's seeing the dead or like Miles' ability.

This is for the BITTERS, that cant accept the truth that Lost DID answer its questions.
“Sometimes people hold a core belief that is very strong. When they are
presented with evidence that works against that belief, the new
evidence cannot be accepted. It would create a feeling that is
extremely uncomfortable, called cognitive dissonance. And because it
is so important to protect the core belief, they will rationalize,
ignore and even deny anything that doesn't fit in with their core belief.”

New information since I got the Lost collector's set: A page out of someone's diary (it would seem) seems to suggest that the canoe firing at our Losties wasnt Ajira 316, but a little boat off Hanso's boat. They sent an away team to check the island and determine a location. Only one man returned alive, claiming they got into 'musket fire' with another vessel, which promptly disappeared into a flash of light. Then everyone but him went crazy and jumped off into the water and drowned.

From what you said the smoke monster only takes the shape or form of dead people on the island. When Sharon is in jungle, Walt appears, this is after the raft is overthrown by the others. Walt wasn't in fact dead yet since in late season 3 I believe the others finally give Walt back to Michale on the boat...

@1800thedrew When Shannon saw Walt in the Jungle it was NOT the smoke moster it was actually Walt, He had the ability to astral project himself outside his physical body. This was one f the branches of study conducted by the DI as the island seemed to boosts these abilities. Walt could have experienced these events without realising they were real, he may have thought they were dreams, as a lot of people that allegedly AP have no reccollection.

@calzagheisthebest The jars in thecabin are of no importance to any mystery, and it is easy to explain in one of 2 ways. 1.The cabin previously belonged to Horace who was a scientist, scientists often have jars of strange liquids. 2.In the cabin there was at least 1 painting and painting supplies, maybe the jars were of paint. but again its of no importance to anything.

mongobeetle 2 months ago
@mongobeetle The numbers themselves are just numbers. (Although, 108 symbolizes the journey from darkness to light, so the equation wasn't random at all). From what I understand, The Valenzetti Equation was a complex equation determining when the world would end, and no matter what factors they used for the equation it kept coming out to 4 8 15 16 23 42. The Dharma Initiative was then created to try and change those numbers. I need to see whatever stuff the Valenzetti came from though
AcrossTheEchoes 2 months ago
@mongobeetle because since I haven't seen whatever mobisode or game or what that they actually explained the Valenzetti equation, I don't know why it wasn't in the series itself, or how an equation determining WHEN something will happen comes out to "4 8 15 16 23 42". Does that mean April 8th 2015 at 4:23 PM and 42 seconds? That seems the most likely answer to me, otherwise why the heck would they bother trying to change it? But I'm just guessing. I need to see those internet and game things.
AcrossTheEchoes 2 months ago
@mongobeetle S6, E5: "Lighthouse" There's a list of names on a gear in the lighthouse. ALL of the candidates names are numbered. The remaining uncrossed off names match up to the numbers. The only exception is Austin (Kate) her number is 51, but we learn later in season 6 that she's no longer a candidate.
15- Ford
16 - Jarrah
23 - Shephard
42 - Kwon
The "others" work for Jacob who made this list, probably where the Dharma folks got the numbers from for the hatch.
MrWarcraft1000 1 month ago
@MrWarcraft1000 I think you're missing the point and making a circular argument, those numbers were in existence probably from before Ford Jarrah etc were even born, so they hold a much bigger significance than just matching up to the names of the candidates.

The "others" know the list as we find out when we see Sayid get ressurected in the temple. Ben was an "other" since age 12 and that's how the Dharma folks got the numbers. Hurley got the numbers from a guy that went nuts during the accident at the hatch. Done.

The smoke monster is able to take on the appearance of dead people on the island. Oh, and he had no name, because the crazy lady killed his mom before she could think of one - she hadn't been expecting twins.

1. Walt was not more important than anyone else. The Others used him as a pawn to get Jack, Kate, and Sawyer. And Ben explaining it later on wouldn't have fit in anywhere, even with people asking questions. 2. People from Flight 316 were shooting at Sawyer's group in that time jump. 3. It's most likely Ben was behind the purge. He's lied about other things. 4. There are a couple guys sending food packs from a special warehouse, who have no idea what they're doing (Hurley finally fired them).

Do you know why they were unanswered? Because you should think what you think is going to happen. Make your own story line...

@LostFanBoy1 why did the hatch countdown clock spell out underworld in egyptian heiroglyphs and why would dharma an american research company incorporate egyptian heiroglyphs into there hatch? who cut the orientation video in half and why? what were those jars of yellow liquid in jacobs cabin? why does unplugging a rock in the ground summon the smoke monster?? help me to understand
calzagheisthebest 2 months ago
@calzagheisthebest Ok1.There are many translations for the glyphs, one os "Inderworld" one is "Afterlife" these both make perfect sense, The underworld is a term often used refering to "Hell" which Hurley stated would be where they all go if they fail to stop MIB, "Afterlife" is the place they were rewarded with for beating him. Dharma put them on because there were egyptian ruins on the Island when they arrived. CONT>>>

@calzagheisthebest 2.Raszinsky cut the tape to keep the possibility of the Losties seeing their future selves in the past. 3.The Cabin was previously owned by Horace...a scientist, put 2 and 2 together. 3. It wasnt the unplugging that summoned him, it was the fact that there was now a way in through the hole, remember smokey cannot travel through water. Your ill informed rants are like those of a child.

@LostFanBoy1 thanks you actually cleared alot of that up. i don't give a fuck about arguing with you i just want some answers. everything you said today was right, and your answers made alot of sense (especially the monster plug hole). thanks to you i can actually watch lost again. lost was and still is the best show i've ever watched and i used to stay up for hours researching into theorys and mysteries and after the finale i didn't quite understand it all. seriously thanks for that

I think it's nice to have a good show without a clear ending and all the awnsers in 40 minutes time.
Lost got so great because you don't know what the fuck is going on.

I just hate how fans want to justify the show, the writters screw up, deal with that.
