Where's Waldo
(NOTE: This is in regards to previous seasons. Eventually things will be up to date, and the blog will have a semi-chronological order to it)
First and Foremost…this show has turned me into somewhat of a geek. What I love about LOST…it's the "Where's Waldo" of television. Obviously the writers/directors know what they're doing by putting in all these little things. But, I love trying to find all these things. Now, most of this stuff isn't stuff that I've found. In fact, everything I've "discovered" on my own is already on these fan sites (guess I'm not that great in the attention-to-detail department). Anyway, hope this isn't a weekly thing. It just fascinates simple-minded people like me.
This TV show is a lot like the movie CRASH.
Some more interesting tidbits I've found on some fan sites. Make sure to pass on to LOST fans I don't know:
1) When Jack is taking care of the girl he marries…there's another patient that he overlooks and pays no attention to. The guy dies at 8:15 (like flight 815 and 4,8,15,16,23,42). They guy who died was Shannon's father…Mr. Rutherford.
2) Something strange is going on with Walt. I think he's found some sort of device to project his image on the island in random places. His speech is backwards…so it could be a distortion in the device…kinda like picture negatives. He was kidnapped probably because he has control over animals. He was reading a comic about polar bears before we saw the first polar bear.
3) Another theory is about the "Others" going after people that they deem are "Good", like what Goodwin told Ana Lucia. If you noticed, Mr. Eko was on the list they found on that "other" they killed. They tried to kidnap him…he seems "good". Locke was almost abducted too, and he has that "Good" nature about him.
4) Obviously the numbers keep rearing their head. The number 5 is on the tattoo on Jack's arm. Michael Jordan wore number 23 and there's a guy named Michael on the island (okay…bad joke).
5) By the way…I think the 2012 theory is dead. When Sawyer spoke to Jack about meeting Jack's father (Christian) in the bar. Jack's father says, "That's why the Sox will never win the series." If he meant the Red Sox…then the show timeline is now. If he meant the White Sox…well, that episode was filmed before the Sox won this recent world series…leaving that as the only way the 2012 theory stays alive. But, c'mon…when you want to make a poignant reference to the "Sox" and the "World Series" (before the White Sox just won) it's gotta be about the Red Sox.
6) Some lines that have been repeated by several characters:
"Don't tell me what I can't do." (at least 3 characters)
"See you in another life." (this one in a couple of languages, it's written in arabic on the back of the picture of that girl that Sayid helped escape)
"I'm not crazy." (at least 3 characters)
7) Locke's manager at the box company, and Hurley's boss at the Chicken Shack were the same guy, Randy.
8) A striking amount of the characters have "father issues"
9) Hurley was on TV in the background of one of Jin's flashbacks, where he doesn't kill the guy and the guy gives him a dog. Sawyer is in Boone's. Jack is in Shannon's. Desmond in Jack's. Sayid on TV in background in Kate's. This one is unconfirmed, but Locke might be in Hurley's, when Hurley visits his friend at the mental hospital, you see someone that looks like Locke in a blue jacket staring at a painting (not 100% sure on this, but here's the picture: http://tinypic.com/view/?pic=i74ydi).
10) Some other person/entity purchased the tickets for most of the main characters (different in every situation though…no conspiracy).
11) The colors Black and White are prominent in a lot of things: Backgammon pieces, Locke's eyes in Claire's dream, Stones found with Adam and Eve, Rose/Bernard, Eko/Locke, Jack's suit & shirt / Eko's suit and shirt, Stripes on Marvin Candle's tie (reversed in film pieces), Sawyer's two-half glasses, Black Horse and Heroin (a.k.a - White Horse),
12) All the girls on the soccer team in the airport have jersey numbers that are the same as the infamous numbers from the show.

13) All the numbers on Hurley's dash too.

14) When Eko is with Ana Lucia by the stream…you see the Dharma insignia burned onto his shoulder…like a branding of some sort or a detailed tattoo.
15) The next episode is called "The 23rd Psalm" (it'll be out Jan 11, there are re-runs from now til then)
The 23rd Psalm.
The Lord is my shepard,
I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside quiet waters.
He restores my soul;
He guides me in the paths of righteousness
For his name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I fear no evil, For you are with me;
your rod and your staff they comfort me;
You prepare a table for me in the presence of my enemies;
You have annoited my head with oil;
My cup overflows.
Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life,
And I dwell in the house of the lord Forever.
In the preview, it shows Eko saying "Even though I walk through the SHADOW of the VALLEY of death"
