I don't want to jinx it, but I think that the absolute insanity and clustercurse of the new season has pushed all foot discussion into the ocean! We had two brand new hours of Lost, and no one mentioned the god forsaken foot! Sure, we spent time in Jacob’s, err or Focke’s secret lair, but I’m okay with that and you should be too.
To summarize:
Hanging out in the foot = OK
Talking about the foot = Not OK
BeeTeeDub, how rude was it of Focke for tearing apart Jacob’s weaving?!

The Incident
Guess what Internet? You were wrong. Everyone who has made some sort of "See? I told you the statue was important" comment can just shush, and wait for their box of snakes to arrive in the mail. The season five finale proved my point about the statue: it's just a statue, just a thing, not the Rosetta Stone of Lost.
Let's recap:
- The statue used to have a body that may be one of various Egyptian gods. Uh, yeah, we knew that. But what does that matter? The show has shown us various Egyptian symbols (Jacob's tapestry, the walls in the temple, the symbols on the countdown clock in the hatch, etc.) it's not ground breaking that it's an Egyptian god statue.
- Jacob lives in the statue's shoe. OK, this is kind of cool, mostly because I don't think anyone thought of it. We, like Locke, believed Ben when he said that was Jacob's cabin. [Sidebar: Err, Jacob, there's no roof on your foot house, won't all your weaving projects get wet? No wonder it took a long time to make, you had to start over every time it rained. And if you're all all-knowing and un-aging, wouldn't you just touch some minions and get them to build you a kick-ass mansion with a water slide?]
- What lies in the shadow of the statue? Something Latin and BORING! So in the shadow of the statue is the one who will protect/save us? Alright, well show us the shadow of the statue. Is it the whole statue's shadow or just the foot? Those are vastly different areas of coverage.
- For my sister, [insert Party of Five reference here].
Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse, you still may just win my heart...
