I disliked the Wil/Cora/Mom scene and the King/Cora as it DID all remind me of Cora and Regina & Daniel, then the White King’s outfit looked like he borrowed it from Xavier. This was all kinds of creepy to me for some reason, so if they do NOT bring Cora into it and explain the similarity was purposeful within this story, I will forever think WL is a remix of their own show the same way they remix fairytales.
Speaking of remix, Sayid torturing the, oh excuse me. Jafar tutoring the bunny on the vast incentives he can provide to help him if he helps Jafar was a let down. The bunny squirmed but I could not help but think if Wil says Bloody Rabbit, I will recall this scene and say–actually he is more like bloodless. I guess Jafar did a spell so he didn’t have to worry about his clothes.
Speaking of the clothes again, I loved the Red Queen’s costumes and seeing the traditional little Disney Alice ones, but Ana’s ball dress was oddly modern, but reminded me of a black dress that Regina wore (the one where she met Hook).
Zombie Alice was not half as creepy as Sci-fi Wharehouse 13 Alice but it reminded me of her and that makes me get goosebumps. She creeped me out. I don’t like when sci-fi crosses right past dark fantasy into horror. We had a lighthearted feel on this show overall though.
I agree about the RQ’s accent scene–at least they explain it.
“If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?” -- Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass
