One way writers could make him less 'good':<br /><br />Jacob, when he was a man long ago, was NOT peaceful and benevolent. He originally accepted the role of 'protector' of the island b/c it would make him immortal (it was a purely selfish act) and he took MiB, who perhaps was perfectly normal & not 'dark' (actually a kind person) with him because the island required two people (don't ask me why or how). This trapped MiB on the island along with him. Over the (I'm assuming) very long stay on the island, Jacob's selfishness and less admirable traits softened until he is what we see currently., while MiB grew more bitter and resentful.<br /><br />Now pray I can sleep :/mbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00818283826571948297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17564195.post-89485240000851441352010-03-18T01:04:24.788-07:002010-03-18T01:04:24.788-07:00ALLY - Nice to see you round here!

Switching back and forth between storylines feels less like a cohesive narrative at this point and more like putting a puzzle together. I'm just really hooked to see how they're going to end this, and I'm enjoying the puzzle pieces they're giving us each week.<br /><br />Hope that didn't sound rant-y - what you said made me think.mbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00818283826571948297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17564195.post-62313944030971668742010-03-17T21:50:09.297-07:002010-03-17T21:50:09.297-07:00SUPER last minute March Madness pick em.

Sorry for the late minuteness of this. But I asked the other day and nobody replied so I figured nobody was interested. But Kim told me she wanted to do it, so here it is. I'm guessing it's just gonna be the two of us. But if you want to join the party, come on in. Will be a lot of fun! Even if you don't know anything about college basketball. Odds are somebody with zero knowledge like one of the Brits will win anyway. :P Just do it.

They are both purportedly on the side of Jacob, but probably only because they felt like Jacob was the man in charge. So Widmore was always trying to get Ben out of his seat of power.<br /><br />- the stuff with ms. Hawking & Widmore from last season makes more sense now. They were trying to get as many of the candidates back to the island as possible to fight the man-in-black. So Hawking's lines about getting everyone back to the island or 'god help us all,' wasn't about fixing the timeline or making sure the conditions of Ajira 316 were balanced with those of Oceanic 815, as it was about stacking Jacob's side.<br /><br />- the only problem i have is that Ilana & Bram's team was so anti-Widmore, but i guess that could be explained by how impure his motives were.<br /><br />- listened to Stephanie & Jordan talk about Breaking Bad, LOST and So You Think You Can Dance on Stephanie's podcast Confessions Of An Internet Addict. good times.andrew.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05738782280774720260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17564195.post-46344150605544742522010-03-17T11:57:55.359-07:002010-03-17T11:57:55.359-07:00I have that feeling...

Now I'm wondering if that's his only motive - he called the island "mine" in the past.

Ben was for Jacob and Widmore ... not. <br /><br />Ben summoned the Smoke Monster to "New Otherton" and it scared of Keamy and his goons.<br /><br />Also the Smoke Monster was depicted as a protector in the temple...<br /><br />Ok, so um now, the Smoke Monster is killing everyone that's not joining, and is going to Widmore's sub to take him out.<br /><br />But shouldn't it seem like Widmore and the Smoke Monster are on the same team? Why would they be trying to keep him out?<br /><br />Here's my thing. I think that Jacob and Man in Black both have, or in Jacob's case, had, the ability to turn into the Smoke Monster. Because it totally seams like we have a bipolar Smoke Monster on the island. A protector and an assassin? <br /><br />My brain is bleedingalexis o'whateverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04277736044428794158noreply@blogger.com
