First Thread = Some HUGE Spoilers.

[Sunan]

Hey guys. So glad we finally got this board up for spoiler discussion.

But yeah. The boards have gone ablaze with this stuff, and The Fuselage is prohibiting the posting of these spoilers so I thought I'd share it with you guys. I pulled this from IMDB, and even though they aren't really reliable, I'm more than positive this is real. Here is the original post on IMDB:

"Okay. This information comes in from someone who had a set-visit recently. Let's kick it off with a picture (click to enlarge.)

www.thetailsection.com/spoilage/uploaded_images/sballoon6op-749632.jpg

This picture is proof-positive that Henry Gale was telling the truth, is not an other, and that Sayid's intuition is not as good as he thinks. (So much for psychic knuckles.)

The information relates to what is either episode 16 or 18.

In this episode, Ana Lucia, who has had her own conversation with the mysterious Mr. Gale, challenges Sayid's assertion that Henry is "One of them". The only way to prove one way or the other is to check out his story. With Charlie in tow, they set off into the dark-territory and find not only the balloon, but also the grave of Henry's wife.

In this episode it is also revealed that Dharma is being perpetually re-supplied by air drops. Hmm, wouldn't all that wreckage still be visible from the air through those crystal clear pacific waters? Where do these guys cash their paychecks anyways?

Folks who put a lot of stock in the mystical nature of the show might want to take a look at "manifesting". Is it possible that some force manifested the balloon, the same way it apparently healed Locke and fulfilled his dreams? Is there something that creates rational reasons for everything based on the desires of certain survivors?"

Also, there was a fan from the Make-A-Wish Foundation or something along those lines who got a chance to visit the LOST set and he set up an online photo album. Check it out and you'll notice that the Black Rock is returning this season:

Also, I'm hearing reports of 2x19 being a Rose/Bernard centric episode, but I'm not sure how true this is, since no one was expecting a R/B flashback until next season. Also, Widmore Construction is supposed to become more prevalent in the next coming episodes. In 2x16, Widmore Labs is supposed to briefly appear in a flashback, and in 2x17, there will be a connection with Widmore Construction and Henry's balloon.

This is all really really interesting news. The possibility of Henry still being an Other is still open though. Whew. It's been a long time since I've been bombarded with so many spoilers all at once.

Discuss.

Good stuff!

[mattyboy]

i belive that Henry still is an other and got the story off one of the people the others took and has used it to his advantage

[Jeroen]

I still don't believe Gale. He acts too suspiciously to be telling the truth.

Nevertheless a truly worthy addition, this little piece of the boards.

[James Finn]

cool , both of those links are corrupt . probably becuase the producers dont want it getting out?

[addboy]

OOOOh, sounds so exciting, finding the hot air balloon!!! Thanks for posting those!!

[Jeroen]

I still don't know what to think about it. The guy really gave Sayid a nasty look. Not one that said 'I hate you for almost torturing me', but more like 'Muhaha, muHAHAHAH, my plan finally worked.'

Don't you agree?

[Debra LI]

Those are some interesting spoilers although the links aren't working. I think they have no choice but to go look for the wreckage unless they are just going to start killing or torturing people hunches.

[Sunan]

I knew I should've saved those pictures. All of the picture links dealing with the spoilers have been removed by whoever initially posted them and I can't seem to find them anywhere else. I guess they're doing their best to keep it all under wraps.

[darthjerryt]

Yeah, better to be safe than sorry.

The mods at the Lost forum (http://lost-forum.com/) where okay with it at first but they've been asked to close all topics on it by some one in connection with the show. Will try and get a re-post up of the images for the ones who havent seen it if i can.

[Sunan]

I managed to track down a shot of the balloon picture, but its near impossible to find one of the photo album and whatnot. Eh. Here you go:

that look he gave at the end of the episode, kinda confirmed it for me, and the fact that he didnt have a wedding ring, i think was another clue for us internet fans

[Sunan]

I do think that he is an Other, but I seriously think the fans are putting too much weight on that little look he gave at the end of the episode. Somehow, I doubt that the writers or directors went up to Michael Emerson and said "Give Sayid and Jack this freakishly creepy evil looking look that makes it seem as if you're an Other at the end of the episode, k?" And besides. He was beat the hell up. Even if he wasn't glaring at people, he'd look really creepy, and if you're inside the hatch and your tormentor just walked out you'd be fuming with anger and humiliation so you're probably gonna follow him with your eyes. What'd you expect him to do, stare at a wall and cry?

Eh. I'm probably the only one who thinks everyone's making that look into way too big of a deal.

[Graeme]

maybe not stare at the wall and cry

maybe stare at the ground and cry
