I think you are right about JJ Abrams. "Lost" is a success because it attracts a particular group of viewers that is a highly desired target of advertisers: Rich people. Rich people apparently love this show so ABC charges advertisers a premium price for the commercials, which is why the show keeps going even though its ratings are not that great. In movies, ticket sales are all that matters.

JJ Abrams is just trying to do what he did with lost and what it has been previously done with 28 days and gasp! the "Blair Witch Project".

That is to create all these kinds of threads in discussion boards across the continent to get people excited about the movie...
