LOST, my theory

[oldsystem]

I get the impression that LOST is heavily inspired by Michael Crichton novels.

the island, the atmosphere: Jurassic Park
visions, apparitions: Sphere
plane crashes: Airframe
possible scientific explanations of mysteries on the islands, ie. invisible island, invisible Jacob, everyone's body being found and accounted for back in civilization: Timeline

Discuss.

Don't forget the "monster" that is that black mess= Prey

And the smart sharks = Next

Your theory is really more of an observation than a theory.

The creators said it was inspired by Stephen Kings The Stand.

Which I can somewhat see.

Also 28 Days later has some aspects of it that seem similar to The Stand.

That would be great

Or a large perfect sphere that grants whatever you imagine.

When Ben started talking about the magic box that created whatever you could imagine, the first thing through my head was "hey, sphere!"
