I had this theory long time ago. I'm just wondering if the whole thing is not simply a dream-like vision? Anyone remebers the Star Trek Next Generation Episode, in which Q had Picard relive his youth (the Klingon-stabbed-a-knife-through-young-Picards-heart-incident!). At the end of the episode he realised, that the being stabbed had to happen in order to become the person that he is. So: Is Jacob somehow sending some of the Losties into an alternate reality in order to prove them their destiny always was the island?

Noted Differences from the original 'Time Line'

1.) No Wing visible from Jacks Window.

2.) Jacks Haircut

3.) Seats are different

4.) 1 bottle of Vodka not two and different dialogue

5.) No Jack Standing up and being knocked by Charlie

any one spot any other differences??

Well, it is a different flight.....I was thinking. At Comic Con didn't they show some sort of modern Dharma logo? What if setting off the bomb means the Dharma Initiative never leaves the island, or comes back to the island.

when i said jacob talked to them i meant after ben killed him he travelled through the time and did what we saw in "incident" premiere

have you seen the interview of daniel dae kim? he said jin and sun arent together!! so the plain crashes is different time and locke and other ajira members would stay in 2007. i think the plain didnt crash with the accident. after ben killed jacob he travelled and talked jack kate, and others. so because the plain crashed. jacob died and the island exploded. jacob is the island soul, he wants to make utopy on the island but man in black doesnt agree with him, so they start "chess". he choose them because they have bad lives for example: jacks father died, alcohol, kate-prison, locke-wheelchair, charlie-drugs and so on. i think the new narrative device would be : we and they would see what would have happend if the plain didnt crash and set in los angeles. and other would be the crash on the island like in season 1. after this moment(turbulence) plain crashes and claire finds jack. because in webisodes christian sends vincent to find jack but now it would be claire. lost ends with: those who are on the side of jacob will live on the island happily. and others will die. on the other time when we see them in los angeles will somehow crash again on the island after that they will understand that the island is there destiny.

Has anyone thought about it being a white rabbit? Like, perhaps they're showing us what could've happened... but ultimately didn't.
Hm. But then again, there are so many differences and Jack definitely knows that the plane should crash.
If there is an alternative-reality, then I still think those that died will die. Boone, Shannon, Charlie etc...
They will just die in different ways.

Oh, and maybe the change to Shannon's backstory is that she never even got on the plane?

But... if the timeline is changed Desmond won't scape from the Swan and Juliet won't leave the others... It's a little bit disappointed in my opinion.

anybody notice how jack looks really confused as to where he is like when desmond first time travels back in season 3 and wakes up on his floor!! So either they cut the pilots message half way through for a reason or they will have alternate realities like people are saying!!

OK. I think the fact that Jack has no short hair and seems to see what is going on tends to point that there's a reset, but Jack definitely knows what went down and hopes that there'd be a reset (he seems relieved after the second big bump).

Hey what happened to all you Virgins who wanted to stay 100% spoiler-free ???
You couldn't resist, huh? Thats alright, join the spoiler club, lol.

This video just confirmed what we spoilers knew all along how the premiere was going to start. I like reading ur comments on what you think might happen next after the video ends. I think only one person had it right. By the way, Charlie is not seen running cause he is already in the bathroom shooting up his herion but you will be surprise on what happens to him later on after he takes the herion.

I agree with the comment that said season 6 will be the greatest season. We will be watching this sea 6 for years to come over and over.

there is a missing scene(s) in this, cause i heard that jack sees the island when the plane was mend to be rips apart!! also were is charlie did he not run past??

well I wish I hadn't read that. guess I'm done checking the comments

3:16 we can see Lock !

Interesting time to see Locke - 3:16!

Minute 2:48 we can see Sun and Jin in the back !

i heard they cut off for a reason there and it gets crazy but thats just what ive heard...

OMG! o_O

AWESOME!

Not very spoiling, but it confirms my theory more or less.
I think that we'll be seeing an alternate reality instead of any flashforward, flashback or time travell, a reality were the incident never happened, well, a lot of things didn't happen, we can already tell because Charlie isn't running to the toilet.
And alongside the alt. reality, the whole Unlocke and Jacob thing we have benn following so far, plus I think that Jack and the others will return to their original timeline because... just because they have to be there otherwise it would be awful xP

It is very clever that while this spoiler suggests that reality changed, the bottle message says that "nothing's irreversible".
If this is going to be season 6, I have faith this are going to be the best season ever made.

The upholstery from both plains are differents too

I compared S1 and S6 scenes and there another diferences: In season 1 scene Charle run to the toilet, in S6 Charlie don't go to the bathroom; On S1 Jack before the turbulence he first stand up and then belt up on another sit, in S6 he doesn't stand up and belt up on the same sit; The Clouds in both senes are differents; Cindy in S6 gave Jack one bottle and in S1 she gave him 2 bottles and she goes in the other way she does on S1.

Is John Locke is behind Rose on S1 and on S6 too?.

Yes, he is. It's a little hard to make out on this video; here's a higher res one:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ls9olrjaMJE

I can't really tell, but if you listen close to the sounds as the plane is rumbling through air...I think you can hear the sound of the time skipping white light over the sound of the plane vibrating.

Isn't Charlie have meant to run passed in that bit? Maybe the dead people didn't return o_O But I can't remember when Charlie does run passed, so I'm probably wrong...

Ya your right...he runs past Jack after Jack gets the drink and before the plane starts rumbling. I have a feeling he's on the plane, but is not into drugs anymore...which doesn't cause him to go to the bathroom to get a quick fix.

In the first season, Jack was the one telling Rose that everything was going to be ok, he was the one encouraging her, and he was shown as the confident one, and after this...it seemed as if the roles were switched somehow.

or like she remembered that he said it to her

Did anyone else notice that the Cindy gave Jack ONE bottle of liquor..instead of two? Also, instead of Jack saying "This of course breaks some critical FAA regulations" Cindy says "This will be our little secret..."

Also, Jack passed out once the plane started flying down in the pilot. He may have been feeling weak when the plane was rumbling and felt like he was about to pass out. That's why he's all out of breath.

whoops..i meant Jack says "This will be our little secret.."

I think the new narrative is called "Alternate timeline" for a reason;
the detonation of the hydrogen bomb, caused a "new" timeline (instead of the old one with Flocke & Ben on it) to evolve extending from the turbulence moment in the plane to chain of events without the passengers crashing on the island .
That doesn't mean the events of S1 to S5 have been erased - Flocke, Ben & the others are still on the island in another timeline (the original lost timeline) - I think the detonation had two effects:
1-it prevented the incident : which means Jack & co. died in 1977 (Richard watched them die) & none of the events happened, so a new timeline emerges in which their plane lands safely
2-it caused the incident in a different way : in this case I think Jack & co. will also wake up in the island in the same timeline that Flocke & others are.(which is due to the universal course correcting effect I suppose.)

Didn't Calton and Damon said that there will be no Alternate Timeline?

mild spoiler it reavels something then cuts off and leaves you with another mystery

"you can let go now"

Does the person who leaked this get in some sort of trouble?

Its not leaked.............its true spoile from ABC

watch
http://abc.go.com/shows/lost/index

Well it appears Jack and Rose are sitting in different seats or a different plane as the first time around the wing is clearly visible from Jacks window but not this time also I am the only one to notice Jack has not got the short hair cut he had the first time around? I may be nit picking but they have had long enough to sort these things out. Still looking forward to the final series.

I was just going to post this because i watched this and the plane crash from the pilot consecutively.
Some diferences:
- Jacks hair is definetely longer
- He recieves 1 bottle of vodka rather than 2
- Jack's conversation with the flight attendant is different
- They are seated differently
- There are less people
- The plane originally shakes as Jack is pouring the drink
- His conversation with Rose is slightly different
- Charlie never runs past Jack, bumping into him

Im not really sure whats going to happen here. Is charlie still dead? 3 more days.......
