Lost found the formula

My first thought as I read "Searching for the Origami Unicorn" was of my co-teacher. Each morning after a new episode of Lost she could be found on the computer checking out blogs to see what other people had to say about the show. I am sure if like Lost had other medias like The Matrix she would searching that out too. As I continued to read the parallels between The Matrix and Lost were startling; The Matrix references Alice in Wonderland and Lost references The Wizard of Oz, the use of numbers as a clue, backgrounds containing... It had me thinking is Lost just copying the successful formula of The Matrix? Should we be on the lookout for Lost the game, Lost the comic, Lost animated short or is it already out there?
