Once Upon A Time

[SixMillionDollarMan Guy]

Oh, and did anyone notice that Regina is strong in "the force" with that force push?!?!

Nice Star Wars reference.

What a season finale!

I wonder since the curse was broken, did August survive?

CRAZY ending...loved every second of it.

So magic in the "real" world...should be interesting. So it's pretty much the same thing it was in the fairy-tale world, but now set in the "real" world.

Regina seemed a little happy to see the magic, even though everybody is going to hate her for what she did; I suppose she can use her "magic" to protect herself.

Did it seem a little weird that Mr Gold would bring magic to the "real" world at the same moment that Regina pretty much lost her grip of the town and was probably going to be strung up in the town square You would think that he would WANT Regina to be hunted and such, after all, they were pretty much enemies...

CRAZY ending...loved every second of it.

I sat through this because my wife wanted to watch the ending live. I would have loved it if Henry stayed dead.

 

[fosing]

i hope it ties up with HP Lovecraft's mythos. now that would be fun.

Don't forget what Regina said though. She said "Magic here is unpredictable." Which means it may not work in the real world like it did in fairy tale land. So we have no idea what it means to have magic available to them in this world.

I find it intersting that Gold said "this brings back that which was lost" or is lost, or whatever. But you'd think he would have meant his son. His son seemed to be the furthest thing on his mind. He wanted his powers back. Because he doesn't reign without his powers, Regina still does. Now he will be able to match her.

Jokes on both of em if they think they can use their magic like they once could.

He doesn't want the town to destroy Regina. He wants that power to lie with him.

Okay, the show surprised me and TV doesn't do that very often. It's almost as if they mapped out this season confident that they'd never get a 2nd season. But now that everyone has their fairytale memories but are still stuck in the real world.

But with magic returning does this mean the nuns are going to be playing a larger part? They are fairies and seem to be pretty powerful magic users back in the day. They would seem to be the only source of good magic to counter Gold and Regina. And I wouldn't mind seeing Mother Superior and Amy Acker a little more...

 

[fosing]

i'm betting the first magic spell in the next season is....

a brainwashing one.

 

[Maglor]

Great finale. Rumple went down a few notches in my eyes in this episode though. However it was cool to see Bell and him together again. Maybe she can rein him in a bit.

Lots to talk about here, but does anyone remember seeing the well before? It had a very "deus ex machina" feel to it. :/

i hope it ties up with HP Lovecraft's mythos. now that would be fun.

 

[gibby]

He isn't so much bringing evil as he is magic. But it seems like most of the people who have magic are evil. And funny thing, he chose magic over his son and Belle. That says something. I wonder if his true love is magic. Or is that just what he needed to bring it all back?

Yeah, and that's what I was wondering...whether it's all about the magic, or if it's about his son. I mean, why would he go through all that trouble to hide the love potion, when he had all those other potions available?

I got thrown off, though, when Henry said "evil is coming".
Guess it leaves a couple of doors open for the writers.

Gibby, explain further what you mean about 'the force' cause I must be missing something.

SixMillionDollarMan Guy nailed it!

Nice Star Wars reference.

You know you have a problem when that's the first thing you think of after seeing that scene.

Good point, and I hope so.

I think Buffy gets the reference.

I just don't remember Regina 'using the force' for anything...

It was my first thought which makes me a problem child.

Doh! I misunderstood.

Starts around the 5:30 mark...

Problem children unite!

My wife looked at me during that scene and had that face of "don't even say it".

 

[BuffyGirl]

So next season they are going to all have their past and present memories. This will be very entertaining. Now to see how Snow and Charming are once Emma is with them. *tear.

Ah yes. For some reason I was imagining you were referring to something that happened in Storybrook.

Watching that again, it really does seem like Emma's revelation is simply from touching the book. Hadn't she touched the book before?

 

[BuffyGirl]

I got 2 questions answered about Once this weekend.

1: Jane is not responsible for the forbidden fruit line that Regina spoke. Adam and Edward are, and they do not ship SwanQueen. So it was either for those of us who do, or they weren't thinking it through. Which I highly doubt.

2. They haven't decided yet if people that are not of the fairytale land can even see Storybrooke. I had wondered (and asked Jane) if people just either had no idea it existed, or was there a deterrent, and she said they hadn't gotten that far yet.

So, not as much help as I would have liked, but I bet it will be the former.

I did get this on film, so I'll pop it up when I get it edited.

 

[Sidewinder]

What is with the shipping for Swan Queen, or even Red Swan? I've just finished the season and totally expected to be shipping Swan Queen, but the characters hate each other. Some friends of mine are going gaga over these two and I'm thinking, nothing is going to happen at all lol.

Anway, loved the first season, looking forward to season 2.

 

[316what]

Excuse my ignorance, but what is shipping?

 

[Sidewinder]

Shipping means relationships. SwanQueen is Emma Swan and the Evil Queen, which seems to be really popular on the internet

I just learned something new today.

Don't forget...Belle didn't like the Beast either. Evil on the outside, bit on the inside, but the heart is there deep down.

SwanQueen will never, ever happen. But it doesn't make it less fun to root for them.
