Who Is Jacob? - Lost Community Forums - Official Spoiler-free Lost Fansite

Miss Austen · 07-13-2008, 06:36 PM

Jacob is a hard character to pin down! We've hardly seen him have we?

Do you think you know who Jacob is? Have we seen his character in another form or have we yet to see him?

I've given you some choices. It would be great if you explained the reason for your choice.

***Kiowa Warrior*** · 07-13-2008, 06:50 PM

I would quite like Jacob to be someone we haven't met yet, but I think there's a strong possibility it's Christian. And on one hand I like the theory that Jacob is Locke thanks to some time travel craziness, but on the other I think it just wouldn't work that well...but then again maybe if the storyline was handled right.

After seeing Lost Missing Pieces, I thought Jacob might be Jack's grandfather because Christian Shepherd refers to him when he gives Jack a watch before he marries Sarah.

I'm probably way off base on this; but that was the only reason I thought he might have been mentioned in this way.

Looking forward to seeing Jacob whoever he turns out to be!

***monster-eats-pilot*** · 07-13-2008, 07:03 PM

I think he might be Christian's Dad (Jack's grandfather) it would fit in (somehow

) but I wouldnt say for sure because it's Lost after all.

Thanks for the replies MEP and Kiowa but are you forgetting to vote?

***monster-eats-pilot*** · 07-13-2008, 07:06 PM

No, I just don't want to vote yet, I havent made up my mind

Miss Austen · 07-13-2008, 07:09 PM

Fair enough MEP. Take all the time you need to deliberate!

***Kiowa Warrior*** · 07-13-2008, 07:10 PM

I will vote for 'Don't know/Haven't seen him yet,' but I'm probably wrong!

I'll probably vote later on tonight, half my votes on this forum are impulse votes

I voted Locke. It's just a hunch, and he sure did look like Locke in a wig in The Man Behind The Curtain. That episode's name would have so much more meaning too if Locke turned out to be Jacob.

I have doubts that someone could make a feasible storyline with Locke as Jacob though...

***firebreathingfishies*** · 07-13-2008, 10:42 PM

I don't think it's Locke, that's too obvious. And I doubt it would be Christian Shepard, because I personally think that would be a bit of a let down. I don't think it's any of the survivors because it just seems a bit weird... I think it's someone we haven't met yet, but someone who has a link with everyone involved in the show. Or was connected with their ancestors in some way. Or something

I think Its Don't know/Haven't seen his yet , I don't actually think it will be an established character -just well , Jacob. I'm just curious to the reason why Jack is an option ?
