I’m firmly in the Locke is an idiot camp. I’m sorry but I think he’ll trust anyone who says he’s “special” or that they want to “save the island”. He is so easily manipulated. I still think he’s a pawn.

I’m firmly in the “neither” camp. Both Ben and Widmore play people for their own ends. That being said, I think it would be interesting if Widmore ended up being the good guy. I think the writers could easily play off everything he has done: the freighter team went rouge, he was strying to keep Desmond away from Penny to save both, etc.

I just really hope that Lance Riddick’s character is not really dead. He is severely underused on Fringe (dont’ get me wrong…LOVE that show), so I really like it when he pops up on LOST. He is an amazing actor. He’ll always be Lt. Daniels to me though…

It seems like maybe Widmore has a good reason for wanting to find the island but yet for some reason I trust Ben. I don’t know what it is but he always seems to have reasons for what he does. Like Locke, he has the islands best interests at heart. he loves that island. Although I do agree that he does seem a little jealous of Locke at times.

Widmore … he hasn’t killed John and he sent out rescuers when John landed in Tunisia and brought in a top surgeon…

Well, I don’t know how Locke could trust Ben after last night’s ep, it appears Ben strangled Locke like Sawyer did Locke’s father? Was Ben helping Locke to die? Still unclear. As for Whitmore, he just seems dangerous to me. lol Those guys on the freighter weren’t there on the island to rescue anyone. But wouldn’t Locke be more upset to ‘see’ the man that killed him? He seemed almost amused. I think Ben is just jealous of Locke. Well, I’m totally ‘lost.’ lol Forget it. Like the x-files said, ‘trust no one.” lol

I’m on Team Ben, as duplicitous as he seems, there is something even more unsettling about Charles Widmore.

Well, Widmore send Keamy and company to the island, and Locke witnessed how Keamy killed Alex and how this affected Ben.

I Ben slightly more than Widmore, although not fully. Also, that war that’s comming might not be 2 sided only, knowing JJAbraams there I think there will be at least 3 sides involved.

What I don’t get is why the Oceanic 6 were so suspicious of Locke’s motivations and saying that he want’s to go back to the Island because he doesn’t feel good in any other place. He could perfectly have stayed in the Island but he knew he had to go search the others, so if he left the Island to look for them, that should mean something.

Also, it’s frightening how the leg related injuries keep on finding Locke… (his con-”father” pushing him through that windo, the door in the hatch, when he got shot in the leg (several times? I don’t remember), he broke his leg again now… )
