So does anyone have any good theories regarding Marvin Candle? He reappeared in the Enter 77 episode and instead of giving an orientation film, he was giving intructions on a computer video regarding coms and hostiles.
It's obvious that he's part of DHARMA. But does anyone out there think he's still alive? If so, I'm thinking he has had to age by several years since the films. Also, he has a prostetic arm, I'm thinking that was because of the hostiles.
So what do you guys think about this guy?
Also, I posted a quick entry in my blog about him. It just raises a few questions that I have on my mind.

yeah, i have the same questions as you. when i first noticed his arm i also believed it had something to do with THe Hostiles. he didn't have a fake arm in the other orientation videos.

I don't think he is alive, but I dunno...
I think he is just a computer system

Sounds like he might well be alive.
"BuddyTV: Is there a chance we’re ever going to see more back-story to guys like Marvin Candle and Radzinsky?
Carlton Cuse: You know, we probably haven’t seen the last of Marvin Candle. He’s pretty tangential to earn his own back-story but definitely there will be more storytelling downstream involving the Dharma initiatives.
Damon Lindelof: I would say we might be seeing Marvin Candle somewhere other than a Dharma film at some point before all is said and done. "
Cool!

Maybe he's one of the leaders for the DHARMA group?

Someone was speaking of anagrams in another thread and it reminded me of something funny my sister noticed. Dharma is an anagram of had arm. Candle is missing an arm at one point..do you think there is a connection?

yeah, i have the same questions as you. when i first noticed his arm i also believed it had something to do with THe Hostiles. he didn't have a fake arm in the other orientation videos. He had a stiff left arm in the Swan orientation video. Some people even theorized that he has a prosthesis.

I read that the actor actually had either a cast or a prosthetic there at the time. You guess correctly!
