Hoax Websites of Lost

Status: A few hoax sites
After getting the first season of Lost on dvd for christmas, I've become hooked on the show. Although I'm beginning to suspect that the writers of the show are simply going to introduce one mystery after another without ever offering an explanation for anything. But anyway, here are some hoax websites related to Lost: Oceanic World Air (the airline that the Lost passengers were flying on), Dharma Industries (the mysterious project that was being conducted on the island), and The Hanso Foundation (The philanthropic foundation funding the Dharma Initiative. This page is part of an alternate reality game, as is the Dharma Industries site). If you know of any other Lost-related hoax sites, let me know.

And here's something that isn't a hoax, but is rather curious. If you type the mysterious numbers from Lost (4 8 15 16 23 42) into google maps, they correspond to the approximate latitude and longitude of an island in the middle of the Pacific. My guess is that this probably isn't an accident.

Update: A few more hoax websites of Lost:

http://www.driveshaftband.com (the website of Charlie's band. Thanks to Nordan for this link.)

http://www.mrcluck.com or http://www.mrclucks.com (websites of the fast-food restaurant that Hurley used to work in, before he won the lottery. As far as hoax websites go, these aren't very fully developed. The front page simply links to a podcast about the show.)

The island in the Pacific mentioned above is Kosrae Island (Thanks to Eric Schucard and Tim for this info).

one little item gleaned from last night's repeat--sorry if its been noted before: Hurley's financial advisor tells him he owns 'a box company'. Locke was a collections person for 'a box company'.

Yes, everyone has a connection to each other. Also note that we saw Sawyer sleeping with the TV lotto girl in his episode.

So no one has mentioned the Ultimate Lost Theory. (At least, I don't think anyone has mentioned it.) It manages to explain quite a few things, such as why the polar bear was on the island. But, of course, it's just a theory.

good webpage. being a Lost dork, i guess i'll have to order a hat or hoodie or something.

i have to mention that i do hear phrases used on the show that are lifted directly from 12 Step group literature. everyone seems to go through the steps in their adventure on the island. its not simple Eng. Lit. freshman speculation, either. there definitely is subtext that underlies the whole process these Lost characters go through that parallels/references the 12 Step experience. i'll wager at least one of the writers or storyline editors is interested in the 12 Step process.

Didn't boone have something to do with a box company as well, or do I just have a horrible memory? By the way, I definitely didn't catch that the girl in that episode with sawyer was the lotto girl.

I have a feeling I miss 99% of the connections.

No Raezela, Boone helped his mom run a wedding business.

Hurley's boss at Clucky's was Locke's old box-company boss, though.

hey all

the Hanso Foundation website at http://www.thehansofoundation.org/ is down.

hopefully, this is temporary? isnt this website part of a computer game? inquiring minds...

PS: im moving over to http://www.4815162342.com for this stuff. i think discussion about the show is more organized and maybe more stimulating for me. but ill always be a museum of hoaxes fan!!

What a convincing note from the producer.
Posted by Sakano  on  Wed Jan 17, 2007  at  06:09 AM
Wow, you're the producer? So my guess is your first language is not English. That would explain a lot. /end sarcasm

Geeze, if this is a real producer then I'm glad I never watched the show. It must really suck. 😉

hey, on the episode on valentines day about desmund's deja vu, there was an interesting little tid bit i noticed.
in the scene where he's in penny's dad's office, there is a painting that depicts a polar bear, and other things on the wall. But if you pause the tv, you can see that at the top of this painting, the word "NAMESTE" is written backwards. Nameste means the universe resides within you.
any thoughts?
