What is't? a spirit?
Lord, how it looks about! Believe me, sir,
It carries a brave form. But 'tis a spirit.
The Tempest. Act i. Sc. 2
I have heard some good solid rumors that the whole thing is a dream and that the season finale of the hit show "Lost" will end with an insignificant character waking up and out of breath and simply saying "...And it was all a dream." Could there be truth to this madness? Please, tell me what you think.

Gee...
I like it because it's fresh and original.

I think they tried that w/ DALLAS and i dare say it truly was a cop-out

i have thought about this "dream story", and it really is getting solid in my mind. too many things just don't add up. there is no fear! only when they encounter the demon! and no one sees it. and hurley is the only one getting sick and having digestion problems from the food they are eating. very real and human to me. if i ate that much fruit daily, i'd have the runs too! he says he needs real food. no one else seems to mind. so if it were one person left, who was having this incredible dream...it is hurley. and what would be his connection to these people? their personalities and problems represent the worst of human behavior: hate, killing, drugs, cheating, lying, jealousy, deception, mis-trust, among others i may have missed. (maybe the 7 deadly sins?) and if this is hurley's dream, then he has issues he needed to confront and they all were fixed in this dream. far out, huh?

JJ would never work again. No dream ! ground this show, I am starting to wonder what else is on.
Not really, just a threat for answers, real answers.. no more manifestations !

along the seven deadly sins line: Hurley: Gluttony (obvious) Shannon: Sloth (several comments of how she doesnt do much) Boone: Wrath (on Shannon's bfriends) Charlie: Lust (claire) Michael: Envy (of Walts relationship with boone) Sawyer: Pride (doesnt pal w/ anyone, never compromises) Kate: Greed (robs to get money, always wants more)
Just a thought

I want to comment on this---- its a dream ---idea. Only if you are very young would you think it was original. After all it is the basis of the Wizard of Oz, I think it would be a terrible cop-out and actually a waste of everyone's time. Of course anything can happen in anyone's dream and that would be an explanation but so lame to base a TV show on.
deannafrances
Yeah an I suppose this was just a dream too.
Cousin Eddie
Just for the record when I said it sounded original...I was being sarcastic. Maybe there's something to it, as many things on the island do seem to be dream-like. Particularly after tonight's Boone-centric episode.

Hey, the dream thing worked great for Newhart. That had to be one of the best sitcom finales ever.
csx321
NO NO NO Absolutely NOT! If the "powers that be" who write/direct/act/particiapte in this show in any way even THINK about making this an "it was all a dream/coma" thing. I am going to HURL!!
I mean it, I am going to grab the porcelain God and up chuck like I have never done before. And I have done some HARD parting and drinking in my time!
KissMESawyer
Yeah, Newhart was really good with that, but I highly doubt this is a dream. its WAY too complicated...
KissMESawyer
that would really suck and be cheesy.
But this magical goop that Locke makes can now be used to explain almost anything.
What if everyone's eating these berries and imagining everything. What if the whole thing is just one person's berry-induced trip.
I don't like it one bit.

I think that this is not a dream, but IS just in one character's head. Locke is a war/strategy gamer, survivalist/military freak, and has a HUGE chip on his shoulder about his handicap. He is also given to delusions (i.e. his invitation to the phone-sex girl "Helen.") So he is merely fantasizing about a crash where he is the hero. Hence, he is the only one that "gets" the island, he is the provider of food, and he is the keeper of wisdom and growth. He is the cause of Charlie kicking his drug habit, Boone letting go of his feelings for his sister, the dog returning, etc. All of these guys are safely beside him in the plane and the characters' true "backstories" are nothing even remotely connected to what Locke has in his mind. I think that is why there isn't a "normal" person in the bunch. Everyone has robbed a bank, or had a tryst with their sister, or is a famous musician, or a talented surgeon with daddy issues, or a Yakuza wife ready to leave her hitman husband. the only one who was a nobody on planet earth was Locke. Because he can't fabricate his own history, but CAN fantasize about a future where a disater makes him a hero.

Jung believed that the unconscious mind is formed by the personal unconscious (the repressed feelings and thoughts developed during an individualÕs life) and the collective unconscious (those inherited feelings, thoughts, and memories shared by all humanity).
Sigmond, also felt that dreams were something of repressed emotins, feelings, ect...
Just a thought!
