i should have been taking notes. i'm going to have to rewatch some this summer. mostly just the way people reference things and the way the writers use foreshadowing and how you can tell when they're definitely just fucking with you and when they're actually leading into something.
did you see cloverfield? j.j. abrams put a dharma logo in the beginning, just for a second, then in a q&a referenced that at the end of the movie, you can see a splash in the water when they're on the ferris wheel at coney island, again, only for a brief second, but he said that it "may" have something to do with lost. some strange tie-in that i'm now almost certain was a "fuck with you" thing rather than an actual hint.
supposedly they had three different versions of the end of the s4 finale. i haven't checked out the other ones, but i'm curious. locke can't be dead. i'm still waiting for that twin theory to come about. cloning perhaps? make yourself appear dead in the real world, then be able to live your life out on the island without fear of widmore searching for you in particular... i don't know.
