Lost Fanatic - concerning everything about Lost, the ABC tv drama

The Glass Ballerina: Ben

Michael Emerson plays Ben
Ben told Jack he'd lived on the island all his life. Just a guess, but is Ben 42? You remember, 42 is one of the Numbers: 4 8 15 16 23 42. Michael Emerson, the actor who plays Ben, is 50 in real life. If Ben was born on the island, and he's about forty-two years old, he would have been there since about 1962.


The film at the Swan station was copyright 1980. But we know that the island has been populated for much longer than that. Magnus Hanso, grandfather of Alvar Hanso (who funded the Dharma Initiative), was buried on the island. The Black Rock sailed in the very late 1800s. That four-toed colossus foot looked very old, although that could also be a newer construction.

Ben was afraid that the 815 survivors would find their compound. Even with all the Others' manpower and sneaky ways, he fears the survivors finding him.

The Others seem to be very afraid. They "defend" themselves by attacking first and causing fear in everyone else on that island. They say they're the good guys, but we still have no idea why they would think that.

Yeah what are they up to seriously? Also, you bring up a great subject, The Black Rock. Man, I really wish we'd get some story on what happened to that thing. Something. I just want to see it again. That seriously was a great episode in the first season. A pirate ship in the middle of a jungle. But, we haven't seen it since. Hopefully we visit it again this season. <fingers crossed>.

I'll put the Black Rock on my list of things to study up on during the hiatus. We have three or four more new episodes before they go to reruns until December? January? Anyway, it's a long time for me. I need my Lost.
