Lost Theory

Recording this today to see how close I am in a few weeks.

The only spoilers my brain could be accessing here are the following:

1. That when the MIB is a boy, he falls into a hole (same well John Locke goes into to turn the wheel), and somehow becomes the smoke monster. That is all I know. My speculation is that he falls into the island's core, which is highly magnetized, and he absorbs some of it. It transforms him from human to some metaphysical force, i.e. the smoke monster. This is also in line with paranormal activity on the island, as well as the use of ash.

2. That it is a bloody mess by the end. I don't know who all lives, but I know Kate gets injured badly, Sun dies, and a lot of people die when the sub is exploded. I think I even saw a spoiler using the words "last man standing-type battle," or something like that.

Other than those spoilers, (and the first one is a MAJOR one), I've drawn upon Nick's Stephen King's Tower theory. Add it all up and with the Desmond episode, and here it is.

Desmond turn key
-hid island from world
-sky turned purple
-blip on map - guys in Arctic
-island now visible to outside world (that's how Widmore can find it now)
-island moving around in time (Mrs. Hawking's "windows")

Island is Tower/Time
(like a big watch - the wheel in the center)
Turning wheel moves island in time

Island exists outside of other realities
When bomb S5 went off, new (string, reality, dimension) was born

Losties on island STILL exist as part of Timeline A.

Alt timeline, though consciousness, can connect with or "know" the other reality.

MIB can't leave island because he is the energy that holds all the worlds together (magnetic force)

Last man standing will defeat MIB, keep him in his place (not destroy him or allow him to leave), inherit island. All others die.

In the Alt Timeline, characters must REMEMBER each other wand reconnect again, if they so choose.

I don't know who the last man standing will be. Hurley? Desmond? (Whoever it is, in the Alt Timeline, will KNOW about his island self.)

**After sharing with Nick, I think it is Hurley. This all explains why Jacob was able to go to the "real" world and touch all of our Losties, and simultaneously remain on the island to protect it. It also explains why Hurley was so "Jacobesque" in John Locke's S6 episode. Rose works for Hurley just like Abbadon worked for Jacob.
