Lost is found. The best theory to date.

4815162342.com — Most Lost theories, and there are many, are total crap, but this is by far the best and most thought out one I’ve seen so far.

  • hater2win, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Holy crap... that is THE best explanation/hypothesis I have ever heard... simply amazing the amount of thought that was put into it... nice digg!

    digg++;
  • dvdcpu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0holy ***** man that's great
    I haven't seen anywhere near all the episodes in that show, but this is an excellent theory
  • Toiling, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0nice
  • kuzkos, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Sweet - this is the best theory I've heard!
  • estacado, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Good theory, but it's too complex for the standard television viewer, but a loyal followers of the series my easily buy it. Plus, many viewers (actually me as I don't know about other people) want to see they get back home at the end of the series. The theory is believable, but it may not be what viewers want.
  • supergwiz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Good theory but it the unraveled story will be some dumbed down cop-out story. Don't forget this is TV.
  • DrWho, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Yes, very good theory. I don't think it's that complex for the average viewer. What is complex, is stretching this out for 7 seasons.

    I am losing some interest simply due to the fact that the some shows just aren't going anywhere. Yes there are clues in all of them, but I do need some substance to keep interested.

    There is no way at this pace I can keep watching this for the next 6 years unless it picks up somehow.

  • sardiskan, on 10/12/2007, -4/+0This is dumb. I've never heard such drivle.
  • Rounin, on 10/12/2007, -4/+0No digg. Marked as spam.
  • megatron, on 10/12/2007, -4/+0if you like.
  • MrMysterious, on 10/12/2007, -5/+0I love LOST, but this theory was pretty dumb.
  • cdollar, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This is a pretty sound theory! Digging~!
  • Viremia, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Interesting, but a stretch. No one but the writers/creaters really know what's going on.

    I've heard from plenty of people who've gotten tired of not being told answers on the show. For me, I enjoy it for the characters and the narrative. The mystery is icing on the cake.
  • spacepirate09, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1The theory isn't bad, but seems off somehow...
  • UGM2099, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6They've covered this theory and a ton of others on the BEST Lost podcast, LOSTCASTS! ::

    http://www.lostcasts.com/

    the show typically comes out the saturday after a new episode. they go in to the mythology of the show and cover many different theories. It's the thinking man's Lost Podcast, and probably the one that most Digg users would like the best.
  • DrWho, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I was thinking the writers didn't know what was going on, but since Disney/ABC pretty much own this site, http://www.thehansofoundation.org/alvarhanso.html , they actually do know what they are doing.
  • kylebrothert, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Check it out. A LOST theorist who responds to comments and answers questions.

    BTW, it's not about being correct. The writers will turn this show into whatever they want. It's about thinking, watching, reading, discussing, and enjoying.
  • Steaminx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0this is awesome. As a die-hard fan this was excellent read. Dig++
  • injekted, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Can I digg twice, because this is amazing.
  • csimpkins, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1This is worthy of the front page of Digg?

    Next week on Digg: Rumors and theories surrounding the disappearance of Kimberly Bauer from 24...

  • Malbolgia, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It's an impressive theory, but it has holes. The Others and the fact that only one child is born while alot of people have died are examples of this.
  • joehobbes, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I guess I need to watch the show...
    I've been meaning to.
  • UGM2099, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"It's an impressive theory, but it has holes. The Others and the fact that only one child is born while alot of people have died are examples of this."

    it's unclear whether anyone has died from the sickness. Danielle killed her team but maybe because they were all getting a little nuts.
  • munkt0n, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Theory? I thought the show was just about people posing heroically on a beach somewhere.
  • cyberdork, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The theory about the satellite and it's 108min orbit is pretty interesting. But what about this collective conscience bullcrap?
  • serra, on 10/12/2007, -4/+0Am I the only person that doesn't watch this show?

  • Schmitty, on 10/12/2007, -5/+0Lost. Bah. Drivel to keep the mind occupied. Grow a brainstem and watch something like Mythbusters.
  • pjczech, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Is this site down?
  • ScottTaylor, on 10/12/2007, -4/+0
























  • Brutal, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0well, it is plausible - but I would be really dissapointed if it turns out there is a "collective consciousness" that can run things by "willing" them.
  • davidkain, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Dugg, especially for ugm2099's link. Thanks!

    I'm interested to see if "the numbers" can be fit into this theory.

    Cheers
  • cyberdork, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Great, I just saw that the Oersted satellite's orbital period is 99.6min. And NOT 108min like stated in this theory.

  • jsparks, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I don't watch the show but my girlfriend does. I normally make fun, but she's stopped laughing while I watch Quantum Leap reruns... always hoping that the next leap will be the one home.
  • bonzooznob, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1+Digg.

    My money says this is it, or (my original theory) "the island" is a "crossroads gateway" to the afterlife. If you "make up" for your "mistakes" on earth, pass GO, do not collect $200, otherwise, welcome to casa del inferno.

  • mockstar, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0BUT WHAT ABOUT THE NUMBERS!!?!?!?!?
  • markcrules, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I assumed it was an experiment... with the 'monster' a manifestation of the survivors sub-conscious. Children have active (and dangerous) imaginations, so the 'others' moved them to a shielded area.
  • Trjn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Best theory I've heard so far, but I don't think its right.

    The electromagnetic field thing sounds good, and I had some crackpot theory early on after the "either this compass is wrong or north has moved" thing but some parts of it. . . especially that collective consciousness, that doesn't fit for me.

    Oh well, I should go watch it again before really getting in on the theories though.
  • DrWho, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0" But what about this collective conscience bullcrap?"

    Read Carl Jung, get informed.
  • jnorris441, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Collective consciousness? Pfft.
  • Xoligy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0***** brilliant. Best theory ever.
  • teeks99, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Dumb. I want my 5 minutes back.
  • itaylor, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0... wow...
  • cyberdork, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1"Read Carl Jung, get informed."

    Reading Carl Jung doesn't get you informed. Pseudoscience doesn't inform about anything.
  • Tordenflesk, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0Lost sucks! C'mon Ice-Bears and horses on a deserted island? Dumbest show i've seen in a while
  • tadeu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The numbers are the latitude/longitude of the island!
    See:
    http://digg.com/movies/Lost_numbers_are_latitude_and_longitude_of_the_island_

  • DrWho, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Yes, because we all know exactly how the mind operates.

    Quantum Mechanics is merely another form of the collective consciousnes.
    But I suppose that's pseusdoscience as well? LOL!!
  • pjczech, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1LOST is an amazing show. This is a good theory.. but who knows.
  • SweetsGreen, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1The theory definatley has some holes...but it is pretty damn good.
