So is this guy, and if you’re a mindless fan I’d say his thoughts are definitely worth a peek

That alternative universe then, could it be that it’s the world according to Evil Locke? So far most of the flash-sideways have been cheery affairs but…

1. The Island has been destroyed and everyone (with the exception of Ben, Ethan, Dogen, etc…) was annihilated in nuclear fire. Sounds like the sort of thing Evil Locke is working towards

2. Evil Locke claims that he always does what he says he will do. Recently Evil Locke has been making lots of promises to the Losties. Interestingly the alternative universe seems to be a place in which people get what they want (even Sayid to some extent).

3. It would be a good fun dramatic reversal to have a world (the alt world) which seems slightly more soft and cuddly turn out to be the nightmare scenario

4. I like the idea that Evil Locke’s plan has in some way already reached fruition, and that everything we’ve seen has been it’s wheels spinning in motion

The thing which really appeals to me though, the backbone of these noodlings, is the gulf between Jacob’s modus-operandii and Evil Locke’s. With Jacob it’s all mystery and faith and choice, with Evil Locke it’s all answers and visibility and certainty (“I always do what I say…”) and not having to make choices: Do this or die, do this and get exactly what you want, follow me and don’t think.

Anyway, just another bunch of Lost thoughts.
