I was just forwarded another potential background image shocker (if not edited):

Check out the far right, middle of the shot .. there's a DHARMA LOGO on the wreckage!

LOL. I saw the last one and I was like "WAIT A MINUTE".
Since it appears there was some sort of symbol on the plane, do we have access to any screen shots of the plane at the airport? I can't remember if they ever showed it at the gate, or taxing out. Or even in the air.

I don't undertand the significance of this. Am I supposed to know who that picture is of? So someone has a plate in their office that looks like the symbol of a ficticious company in a TV show. What's the point? I'm sure I could find a picture of something octagonal shaped in real life and post it here saying that it's the Dharma Corp. logo.

You are kidding, right? You do know that is the Dharma Initiative film that Locke and Jack watched, right??

Whats the big deal with the candy bars. APpolo candy bars are popular in the UK, no reason to assume they arent available in Austrailia. Not any different then if they were eating a hershey bar.

Ever watch X-Files? Did that show ever answer any questions, at least until the last ever episode. As Lost writers answer one question, they leave you with 10 more, otherwise, if you knew the answers, you would not watch anymore.

I thought it was a nod to the Apollo space missions - particularly after bigspaceship1.com hit.
But then Sharpes revealed the UK-ness of such bars....I've been ruined by Hershey. If it isn't Hershey, I'm suspicious.
...and a quick look through Google about "Apollo candy" or "Apollo chocolate" won't get you ANYTHING about a potentially real product, just list after list of BB's talking about apollo candy on Lost. sigh.

Maybe they all have been part of a Hanso experiment since birth.......

interesting idea, but IIRC, the Hanso exp started somtime in the 70's. a lot of the characters were obviously born before that.

Jungle color
The trees and foilage are all green - any significance???
Anyway - this was a decent episode, no answers, and with the dream sequence with Hurly we are quickly treading down the path of Twin Peaks.
Love the photo shopped Darma images all over the place! - The writers of this show are not that clever, nor are they looking that far in advanced - it is a surprise hit everyone!!!

The only one of those images that was photoshopped was the Locke one with the orange. The others are real screen grabs. The one with Walt showing the symbol on the plane is on the DVDs, without question, and so is the one that shows Jack finding his father's coffin and the symbol on the piece of the wreckage nearby.
Now I'll give you this.....neither of THOSE symbols are the exact same as the final Dharma one from this season, but it's possible that the writers just had the idea that "it'll be an octagon" and added the details this season.
I was also skeptic that about whether the symbols were just added to the DVDs later, but someone said that it was on their original taped episode (assuming they're not lying).

They are? The big deal is that we've never heard of them here in the US, and you're the first "international" person to come forward and tell us they exist outside of here.
So there you go .. it's not made up, they're European~

Surprisingly, this is a real screengrab. It was in an episode I saw a few days ago...
Edit: I may have missed it, the logo itself is photoshopped? Someone must be having fun messing with my mind

Right, the screengrab is real, but the logo is added.

You mean, decided that the octagon should be the same design as the Ba-Gua.
Did they luck into finding an appropriate octagonal symbol, or plan it from the start...?

You're right, it's the same now, and there's no doubt that those symbols from the first season show an octagon with internal lines as well, but they still look like early versions.
Look at this one. I think it looks like one of the 8 sides of the octagon is much longer than the other ones, doesn't it? Not sure why, if they had the Ba-Gua in mind, they'd make it that way, but I also can't see how they didn't have the Ba-Gua in mind when they put an octagon with internal lines on the stuff from season one.

The trees and foliage are significant when you realize that this is a tropical island, yet when they ran into the others they were dressed like they were on a fishing boat in the north atlantic, not the south pacific...

What, you never saw a bum in SoCal wearing sweaters and jackets and hats?
Maybe it gets cold at night.

For the purpose of seeing their clothing... but also for the DeGroot comparison.
Their clothing just looks extremely well insulated for the tropics... and if I recall correctly Walt and company were not exactly cold and shivering...

I am not buying the DeGroots are on the boat theory. Do people really think those pictures look like the same people?

Weapons
It's strange the big threat by the others seems to have dissappeared from their priority. They do now have access to a huge cache of weapons. I noted that Rambo err sorry Locke was preparing himself a nice little toy!

Posting from page 6 of the thread.. way behind..
With regards to Hurley's dream having Walt when Hurley didn't know he was gone (and Jin's bruise, and Locke knowing about Theresa falling up/down the stairs in his dream, etc), maybe these are 'inserted' dreams..
Cut back to the officially-denied-yet-we-still-talk-about-it idea of them all being dead and having to deal with issues from their lives.. what if someone (or some group of someones) examining their lives introduced dreams to cause people to deal with issues that had been troubling them in life.. Even on the island, Hurley still carried the pain of having his friends all apparently turn to him for money, get mad, etc. This dream helped push him to give out all of the food ahead of time, which actually helped heal his previous problem in his mind.. (i.e. it wasn't just solving the current food problem, but wiping away the previous lotto problem since he solved this food one). If that dream was specifically inserted/introduced by psychologists/experimenters/gods/etc, then it explains all of the extra knowledge, etc.
I don't believe that really, just a thought.
