A Lot of Link

The Orchid ehh? That is the most recent station to be revealed in a clip shown at Comic-Con. You can check it out here. I will have more on that video in another post. Right now I have some more goodies for you.



LINKS VERY Special Edition

Have you read any overall LOST theories lately? Ben Lundy has one YOU NEED to read. It is divided into two parts. Here is Part I and Part II.



That statue with four toes MIGHT have more history than you think. Take a look at Capcom's take on it in her article, Nephiliam Schmephilim.



Want a season 3 review? The poster Paula Abdul Alhazred has a nice one here.



Do you still wonder about the supposed psychic that urged Claire to get on Flight 815? Memphish discusses him in an article asking you, Real or Fake?



Who DOESN'T want to know about Libby?! Jay has some good points to make.



How do you get to that stinkin island?!?!?! Hatchling23 discusses the various ways of getting There and Back Again.



The island is very symbolic of the world we live in. Check out this article from Juno Walker.

Lastly, Bigmouth knows his LOST stuff. Check out Cause and Effect.

I'll Be Back!

SPOILER and BLOG! READ ALL ABOUT IT!

After a lot of thought and emails my "project" plans are well underway. The project, as most of you know, is a new LOST blog what will include LOST bloggers from everywhere. A launch date has not been set, except that it WILL be up and running before the Season 4 Premiere. Any questions or comments email me at freexzfrozen_icebox@yahoo.com or of course comments are welcome.

Breaking NEWS! (SPOILER)- Of course it won't be a spoiler for long, but word on the street is Harold Perrineau will be returning to LOST! I have mixed emotions about this announcement and of course it adds even more hype to the premiere.
What's going to happen next?

RECENT ARTICLE- My recent article Smokey the Psychic is a very confusing little post.

Thanks for Reading.
Namaste and Good Luck!

Smokey the Psychic

Here is an Age theory. What if our dearest island cloud of smoke is a transformer AND a psychic? Let me explain.

We have seen many island apparitions, or what we think to be apparitions and many assume them to be Smokey in disguise. I am one of those who assume these supposed apparitions to be Smokey. Ahh, observe apparition screencaps below. :)

Richard Alpert is the one I would like to address. I do believe that this particular Richard Alpert is just an apparition, a phony! The island knows what it wants and how to get it, so what more then to get it's TOP DAWG representative to do its dirty work (Smokey).

That is where psychic ability comes in. Desmond experienced his little flashback-to-reality all because of Smokey's doings. Smokey is manipulating these people to accomplish something. What, I don't know. I am on the fence with Richard being an apparition. I have another thought on him as well. More on that in a few.

The Deal with Time The island is time. That is why there is so much confusion. It LITERALLY IS the time. In a sense, this means that there is no time at all. That is why children cannot be born on the island. That is also why I do not think that the people "killed" on the island are actually dead. It explains so much (in my head anyway). Other theorists say that it phases in and out of time and some say it is in another dimension or time loop. All of this is true to an extent. It is an ISLAND, a place all its own. It can phase in and out of anything and everything. Yet, humans are not meant to be on this island because they are not supposed to phase in and out of time.

Life VS. Death

Aaron was born because he was conceived in a TIME and not OUT of time. Sun's baby has no age because it was conceived on the island, where humans are not meant to be. Aaron actually had an age that EXISTED in a stable time where humans are meant to be. That is what makes the survivors so special. They are MEANT to be on the island because they have to accomplish something. They get a shot at redemption. Not just ANYONE is led to this island. The people that die on the island I do believe are put back in there time, given a second chance at life.

MIKHAIL?? RICHARD?? These two are the islands recruits. :) RIchard and Mikhail could very well be supernatural beings and not human at all. They may not be apparitions but something else.

I KNOW I'M CRAZY!!!
To Sum it All Up (or at least try): The island does exist in a different dimension and phases into ours occasionally. It can go every which way in time. Forward, Backward, or just stand still.

People are meant to age in ONE time and if we are constantly phasing in and out of time and then suddenly get put back in one time it will mess everything up. !COURSE CORRECTION!

I know this theory is all over the place and deals more with the overall theory of LOST. And NO I didn't take Advil this morning. :)

Thanks for reading.
Namaste and Good Luck!

A Storybook Tale

I don't know how many of you notice, but it seems that the names of each Hatch come straight from storybooks. The Looking Glass being the most obvious, but it seems every other name could fit quite nicely into a fantastical story.



Go my son, retrieve the magic arrow and shoot it through the hallowed flame. It shall pierce the heart of the sacred swan and then you may go through the looking glass.

Yeah, I don't know if I went over the limit on Advil this morning or not. I mean, it was a REALLY bad headache.

As Far as Josiah Goes...
In my previous article, The Temple, I mentioned a philosopher by the name of Josiah and how I think his ideas have LOST written all over them. The problem is, I don't know how to give these ideas simplicity and convey their relationship to LOST. I am asking all of my fellow LOST bloggers to look into this. I may just be loony and looking way to far into it, but that is for you guys to decide. If you would like to be involved, write an article in your blog and then I shall provide a post with a link to each article.

Have fun and thanks for reading!

Namaste and Good Luck!

UPDATE: I have responded to everyones comments in my previous post, The Temple. My response is in the comments. :)

The Temple

In the episode, What Kate Did, Eko tells Locke the story of Josiah, King of Judah in the Old Testament. Following this story, he hands Locke a Bible. Inside this bible he found a film, the other half of the one Locke found in the Hatch. The story Eko told was of Josiah sending his secretary to the treasury to retrieve gold for the workers, so that he could rebuild the temple. Since the temple was in ruin, people worshipped idols. So, the kingdom was falling apart. Josiah did not want this. When the secretary came back from the treasury he did not have gold, but an ancient book that many know as the Old Testament. It was by this book, not gold, that Josiah rebuilt the old temple.

Josiah...who? There is another Josiah that has caught my interest, one that is, well, a philosopher, Josiah Royce. This man and his ideas seem to resonate LOST! I am not so good at conveying the various ideas of his that relate to LOST, but I know someone who will. I will get back to that in a minute. Now, back to the temple.

Eko's Temple Eko told Locke that they found a place much like the temple in ruin he described in the story of Josiah, and he said that is where he found a book. When he says this, he hands Locke the bible. Now, I assume he is talking about The Arrow hatch, because this is where he found the bible with the film. I SAY ALL THIS BECAUSE it made me think, what if the Temple that Ben and Alpert are talking about is just another hatch? It isn't the one Eko was in because that was named The Arrow. They also found a glass eye there as well. So, who knows?!

One more intelligent than I There is one person that I will enlist the help of for this endeavor of communicating the thoughts and similarities between Josiah Royce and LOST, one that I know will be good at conveying them in simple terms. I will have a follow up blog to this.

ONE LAST THING... I am once again enabling comments to my posts now that I have some viewers. When I was newer, not many knew of my blog, so the 0 comments made it look a little lonely, as it was. So leave some comments and tell me what you think. I can accept criticism as well. :)

Character Collage

Along with my IN RETROSPECT reviews which are in the works (I PROMISE), I will be doing character studies. Each character will get an in depth article written on them and I will post them here. Isn't it EXCITING?!?! ::sarcasmincluded:: So, when I am finished, you should be able to put all the articles together to make it look like the picture you see on the left. :::moresarcasmincluded:::

Ok, but for cereal, I will be doing these articles. I have procrastinated on posting the RETRO REVIEWS, but they are coming also, as I have promised over and over.



LOOKING AT WHAT LIES AHEAD
Of course the future looks murky for the ongoing story of LOST. All we know is that it will end in 2010, what happens between now and then in the story is being kept secret and safe with the writers. That brings me to my next venture, forecasting the fates of the island and those on it. Yes, I am a top notch Island weatherman....no one can quite melt COOL FREEZE. :)
Seeing that we don't know what is going to happen, I shall be writing my prediction articles. I will tell what be brewin in my brain as far as what is to come. How many more lies will be told? Better yet, where ARE the lies, and who is telling them?


THANKS FOR READING!


NAMASTE AND GOOD LUCK!

NEW BLOG!!!

I have a new blog called The Critical Spot. Sorry to all Lost fans, but it isn't another LOST BLOG. Nonetheless, I think many of you may find it interesting.

CF

P.S. I will continue to post here at the ICEBOX about LOST of course...so don't stop reading, those of you that do anyway. :)

Revisions

I recently made some changes to my blog, hoping to make it easier to navigate around it. I have a new section just for LOST BLOGS and my labels are now organized. I haven't done any retro reviews in awhile, but I promise that I will have ALL Season 1 and 2 retro reviews finished before Season 4 starts.

I have also stumbled upon some new LOST BLOGS that will each be featured in a Links Special Edition post. I hope everyone is enjoying hiatus!

Thanks for Reading

Namaste and Good Luck!
