History Repeats Itself

The writers know very well that we love clues and "easter eggs" as they're called, so they give them to us. Don't quote me, but whenever Ben said that "History was going to repeat itself" I think he MEANT it. As I started to explain in my last post, Island Disappearing Act, I think that the history of the island is KEY to what is happening to the losties.



Consider this:

The island has a mind of its own. Some have said this all along and other fans sort of frown upon idea. Is Smokey the spirit of the island? This could be possible. Ever since I heard of a volcano on the island I've pictured Smokey rising from the eruption and overtaking the island by force. This is a comical way of looking at it.


All smoke put aside, the thought of history repeating itself to accomplish something special doesn't seem to far off. These clues that point toward time may be clues that are pointing toward this possibility. The Hostiles seem not to be aging, or at least Richard Alpert hasn't aged. Are these people real or just apparitions of the island?



If they are Real: They are a cursed people that can't get old until they accomplish their goal.


If they aren't Real: This would just continue with the whole idea of island apparitions.

BLACK ROCK vs. COCKPIT
An entire ship versus the front end of a plane can hardly be compared, yet they can be. The question of what happened to the crew of the Black Rock still remains unanswered. If the Black Rock crashed on this island and had to deal with "Hostiles" of sorts and had an entire crew then what happened to them? This is extremely hard to compare seeing that we hardly have any information on the crew of the black rock at all, but picture it. The crew of the Black Rock having to fight for a way off the island, struggling day and night against the hostiles and the smoke monster. The people from the ship are here for a purpose, but they don't accomplish this purpose, therefore the island gets rid of them and brings another group of people to the island. I am looking forward to hearing what you think.


Thanks for Reading!
Namaste and Good Luck!
