Oh, one more thing ... Notice the Black Rock sailing ship in the background as "Jack" gazes at the island? That's a real spoiler, really. Expect more on the Black Rock.

Black Rock and Enterprise Spoilers

I was thinking of devoting this post to the true meaning of Black Rock, but that will have to wait for another day.

There is some great news today for Lost creator J.J. Abrams. He has been signed to produce the next installment in the Star Trek franchise. The details are set and this one will be an action adventure focusing on the events that brought Kirk and Mr. Spock (another Mr., not Eko) together for greatness, never Lost. You can see I still miss Mr. Eko. Kirk goes to Star Fleet academy and becomes the world's most famous captain.

Lost's J.J. Abrams also produced Mission Impossible III, released in 2006. If you saw it you also could see his greatness in directing an action drama. It succeeded despite the huge personal baggage literally and figuratively trailing its star Tom Cruise.


Oh, the Black Rock, ABC calls it a "19th century sailing ship" - talking about captains ... Wondering how I'd tie this together? At the left is a publicity photo put out by ABC - Touchstone Pictures a while ago showing Lostaways exploring the hulking wreck of the Black Rock - You can make out Hurley, Charlie, and Jack in the released photo.

Did you notice that ABC highlighted the Black Rock as one of the unsolved mysteries listed in the Season 3, Part 2 Spoilers
a few days ago? We've got the spoiler about Black Rock coming soon right here at the Lost Spoilers blog, or at LostExposed.com ... haven't decided yet where to put it, or maybe not at all since it's hard to verify with the 100% spoiler accuracy for which we are known.

Here is a riddle clue: A spoiler on hulking wreck Black Rock known to only a few and believed by fewer, it is not as profound as some people might expect, and more profound than others might expect, and is not even be a true Lost spoiler. I do not think that is solvable, so don't waste time trying. Vague enough?

Official Season 3 Spoilers, Part 2

ABC now has released their "teaser" for the mid-season premier of Lost. It contains a lot of "spoilers", which if history is the guide, may potentially, maybe, possibly ... ok probably maybe has some misdirection. It included a group photo that omits Mr. Eko, not a surprise:


Here are the Lost spoilers we believe are verified:

• More for the Guys Lost Spoiler ... ABC now has officially stated the "second act" of “Lost” season 3 (or Lost series 3 as the Brits might say) has "action-packed mystery and adventure". You might say ... well duh. However this actually is a concealed spoiler. Before season 3 began, the creators of Lost were hyping the "relationship" aspects of the upcoming season. Although they provided the sort of answer on who Kate picked (Sawyer) they also did not adequately address the male demographic largely responsible for all the grumbling about lack of "answers" for Lost this season. This is ABC's clue that we can expect an attempt to bring everyone home to the Lost fold.
  
• ABC has not forgotten about all the mysteries for which we want some attention. How do we know that? They summarized them all in their release. They have not forgotten!
  

"the island holds many secrets, including a mysterious smoke monster, polar bears, a strange French woman and another group of island residents known as “The Others.” The survivors have also found signs of those who came to the island before them, including a 19th century sailing ship called The Black Rock, the remains of an ancient statue, as well as bunkers belonging to the Dharma Initiative -- a group of scientific researchers who inhabited the island in the recent past."

• Juliet – the Others' fertility doctor - makes a "shocking" decision that could endanger her standing with her people. Remember, she will shoot someone.
• Look for a Charlie storyline about his future, as revealed cryptically by Desmond
  

Here is one that looks like misdirection: "can the survivors find a way to interact with the outside world". Our prediction is No. Although the Others might, we predict Sawyer, Locke et al. will not.

Here are some excerpts from the ABC Lost press release, but as usual, be wary of misdirection contained in it:

"As the second part of Season Three opens, Jack seems to have gained the upper hand, as Ben’s life literally rests in his hands. His demands are simple – release Kate and Sawyer as prisoners of “The Others,” let them safely return to the island and he’ll stay behind. But does Jack have a hidden agenda? Kate finally made her romantic decision between Jack and Sawyer by choosing the smitten con man – but were her feelings for him genuine? Juliet – one of “The Others” -- makes a shocking decision that could endanger her standing with her people. After the death of Eko, Locke’s obsession to uncover the secrets of the island leads Sayid to believe that his intentions may not be in the best interests of his fellow survivors. Sun and Jin will continue to celebrate their pregnancy – but is the child really Jin’s? Just as Charlie returns into the good graces of Claire and her baby, Aaron, Desmond drops a bombshell on him that could change the course of his life forever. After the hatch imploded and the electromagnetic charge was expelled, questions arise as to what effects it had on the island – as well as the outside world. Will Penny Widmore find the island and her long, lost love, Desmond, and can the survivors find a way to interact with the outside world?" No.

How about this reference to "heroes": "Even heroes have secrets." A lot of people are speculating on a connection between the NBC show and Lost. We can confirm there is no connection except the creators of Heroes are admirers of what Lost has achieved.
