 The LOST Challenge
If you were the main writer for 'LOST' - the television series. What twists and turns would you write for the series?????
There's a lot of fertile ground here, so let your creativity fly!
Why is John Locke, the paraplegic, able to walk on the island? Isn't he starting to get a little odd? What's his problem?
What's with those ghostly images of Walt? Just what is his 'special' power? How will it help or hurt the castaways?
Where did the 'Others' come from? Who are they?
If the castaways don't enter the 'lottery numbers' into the computer in time... what will happen? Trigger a nuclear device?
What happened to Desmond? Where could he have gone? It's an island!!! Could he be with the lost stewardess? Hmmmm...
What is this island? Why was the Dharma project (apparently) discontinued if it's so important/dangerous? And where's Greg??????
Pick your favorite characters and give a brief synopsis for your own personal 'LOST' storyline, outline, plots, or plans.
I'm thinking....

Re: The LOST Challenge
Well, for one thing I would have Locke become 'one' with the Island, and start doing things that he perceives as being in the best interest of the Island, not the group. He'll also find oneness with the Others and betray the group.
Walt will transform into something else. Perhaps one of the black smoke monsters. But a friendly one, who will speak to the survivors via images cast in the smokey shadows. (The boy actor will have grow too fast for a LOST's season (= 41 days) to be realistic so he has to be written out somehow...) Or maybe he will can become the ghost in the machine! And speak through the Dharma computer's dumb terminals.
And... something dangerous and odd HAS to happen when castaway's finally forget or don't enter the lottery numbers into the computer. I'm going with a nuclear meltdown countdown. They'll have 108 minutes to figure how to prevent the whole island from becoming a big mushroom cloud.
Oh, also... I would have the origin of the Others as... a band of misfits from a marooned traveling circus. That would explain Polar Bears on a tropical island. Maybe.
Other ideas?

Re: The LOST Challenge
I've never watched LOST! I can't even really get a clear idea of what it's about. Sure seems popular, though.

Re: The LOST Challenge
As Season #4 begins....
Any theories as to what is going on on LOST?
Who are the Oceanic 6? Hurley. Kate. Jack. And... The person who died in last season's final whom we didn't see? Julia (Julian?) ? I'm assuming Sawyer is one, and that Kate's with him. Who else?
And why only these six?
Where is everyone else? I'm assuming still on the island... so why isn't anyone sending help to them? To save them? ???? They can't ALL want to stay on the island! Other than John Locke.
It's crazy!
What do think is going on???????
