I like the theory myself, but I do agree it's a bit of a stretch.  But before CC or RD came out, how many people can honestly say they expected Porre to take down Guardia?  The way we speculate is the same way writers brainstorm.  I'm playing through CC again right now, and I do find myself doubting it more and more.

Kajar Laboratories / Audition Thread for CT Flash Series

Wow, Jake-A-Roonie, this sounds like an awesome undertaking...  I'd love to put in an audition or two for this thing...   *looks around for something to record with*...   I sincerely doubt I can match the absolutely magical performance of DeweyisOverrated for the part of Lara lol, that was awesome.

Characters, Plot, and Themes / The Entity's Purpose

Of course to survive, but I meant on a grander scale, if there indeed is one.  There may not be, but the planet (if you go with the Gaia Theory) is being harmed by Lavos in CT, and it's evident that all the nature references in CC give the general idea that humans aren't that much better for the health of the planet.  It's been said that humans act on a whole, much like parasites to the planet.  Pulling Dinopolis back to counter-balance Chronopolis would've worked really well to help things get back to nature, if Chronopolis hadn't given the lizard people the unholy beatdown.  In the planet's eyes, Lavos was a parasite, and the "Progeny of Lavos" were also parasites.  What a clever move, to turn your two enemies against each other, and making it so that the weaker side wins.

If you don't buy that the planet is the entity, then forget all that stuff up there about nature not being too happy with humanity.  Instead, consider the fact that the entity pretty much manipulated the CT party into doing it's dirty work.  It couldn't manipulate a being such as Lavos, which also happened to be a threat to the entity's life/existence, so it had it removed.  Anyways, the whole thing is just an idea...  an anti-human Entity.

Characters, Plot, and Themes / The Entity's Purpose

No matter who or what you think the entity is... (the planet, alfador, a Deity, the player... etc.)...   what was it's purpose?  I know, to guide the CT heroes to the point at which they could defeat Lavos, thus creating the Keystone Timelines.  But why?  I don't know if this has been discussed already, but what if the Entity wasn't the good force that many assume it to be?

I do admit that most of the 'evidence' so far is based on superficial things, such as names and appearances.  However, the bit about the pictures in Lucca's house at the time of it's burning does point to Crono and Marle's survival of the fall of Guardia.  Regardless of whether or not you think Crono may have been Miguel, there is a significant chance that he and Marle are alive somewhere in the world.  Being that they are important people (to both Guardia and to the timeline) they would probably be found at least near El Nido, in order to view the events that occur in CC.

The further we go from the fall of Guardia, the more speculative we become.  The fall of Guardia is a certainty, then comes the theory that Crono and Marle survive to the time when Lucca's orphanage is burnt.  If they did indeed survive to that time, Crono and Marle did in fact lay low and slip under the Porre military's radar.  Also, that really depends on Porre's motivation for taking Guardia down.

I'd like to ask a question myself now...  Somewhere I read that the former Deva's (Radius, Garai, Zappa) were somehow involved in the fall of Guardia.  Also, from the same source, it was said that a figure with a scythe was present as well.  Not saying it was a credible source, but what do you guys think?

On the subject of the Miguel/Crono theory...  as we all (or most of us) know, Miguel was Leena's father.  No one ever mentions or calls attention to her mother (not that I can remember)...  but some further evidence may lie simply in Leena's name itself.  Marle's mother, Queen Aliza passed away when she was very young...  the next closest female relative she comes into contact with would be Queen Leene.  Crono's mother's name was never revealed in the US version of CT, but in the Japanese version it was Gina.  Quite a clever combination they have there...  using the name Leene and the name Gina to make the name Leena.  This may further contribute some credibility to the name comparison...  Serge's mother was named Marge, and you can see a similarity in their names, as well.

Personally, whether or not the Crono/Miguel theory is accurate or not, I like it.  Imagine long after the fact, that somone should just realize that they defeated the hero they came to love so much.
