ET Online 12/8 – Underworld Adventures, True Love's Kiss, the Same-Sex Romance

but the Underworld is not hell — it’s sort of an in-between place and it’s a place that’s filled with people with unfinished business, and that’s what we’re going to be exploring

*sigh* *rubs head* What….mythology book are they reading? That sounds like Purgatory which is pretty specific to one tradition. They are calling it the Underworld, complete with Greek heroes, and (probably) Hades. So…all the pieces for a Greek Underworld is there but this isn’t really the Greek Underworld.

And then, he thought he would never seen her again, he thought he would have to die that day and be sent to the Underworld a place that does not have good memories or good people waiting for him and so it became a crime of opportunity where he saw a way out.

Too bad none of that is expressed in your text! Stop telling! Start showing!

Fans online were making a big deal saying that the sword scene was very similar to an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Had you realized the similarities when you were plotting the story?
EK: Had we realized it when we were plotting the story? Probably not. Have we realized it post? Yes, but we felt that although they are similar, we were trying to pay off that Emma couldn’t let Hook go and then had to and that was kind of their arc together.

…..

*looks at writing credits for OUAT for the past five year* ‘Sup Jane Espenson. How you doin’? you didn’t bother pointing out that the show you formerly worked on (and was a HUGE cultural hit) did something y’know…just like this?

EK: No, what happened was, here’s the complicated math: Hook was going to use Excalibur to harness all the darkness from every Dark One that came back including Emma and himself and then put it into the sword. Emma was going to stab him and therefore and therefore he was going to absorb all that darkness and then when he died, the darkness would die and that’s what they believed. But what they didn’t know was that Rumple stole it. So while Hook thought that he was blowing up the darkness, Rumple kind of siphoned all of it for himself.

If you need to sit and explain the “complicated math” of the big climax of your story, your story doesn’t make sense. Also, I have no idea what Eddy is saying here. I still don’t get what Rumple did. Or why they didn’t use the hat. Or how Rumple has the dagger when Excalibur crumbled.

AH: And actually just given the timeline of our show, I don’t think that is physically possible for her to have a another child [at this point.]

*blinks*

You don’t understand Human Gestation and Procreation, do you Adam. There have been two 6 weeks jumps (in between 4A and 4B and the time in Camelot) making Baby Snowflake at least 12 weeks old or three months. He’s probably a bit older because of the time between 320 (birth) and the beginning of 4A, so we’ll say 3.5-4ish months. Women can get pregnant *VERY* soon after giving birth. So….whatchu talking ’bout Horowitz.

EK: Yes, they are in the care of the Blue Fairy daycare!

Because “screw parenthood! and who cares if the parents possibly die and leave their children as orphans! The pirate must be saved, yo.

*drinks*

What happened to the Camelot characters and when will those stories be resolved?
EK: I think that they’re still in Storybooke and perhaps we will give closure to them at the end of the year. They’re still kind of hovering around and that’ll be something we get to at another time. They’re on pause.

Perhaps?! PERHAPS!?

Lawd. Give me strength.

So the show is getting TLK. Yip-freaking-eeeee.

I’m shocked Eddy came right out and said it. Which leads me to believe it will be filmed outside and soon and will be spoiled anyway by fans.

*sigh* *rubs head* What….mythology book are they reading? That sounds like Purgatory which is pretty specific to one tradition.

Yeah, im sort of confuse with this. They mix other religions with greek mythology, not unexpected, already destroying the myth before the show starts, oh joy. Why cant they just stick to one thing, i mean this “no underworld” raises more questions that answers, if they say yeah is the underworld, the good ones  are in elysium, there would explain why some characters are not there, but with is in bwt, brings lots of questions that they wont answer at all.

So what happens to heroes and villains that have no unfinish things?

What happens to those who end not having closure, they stay in this place forever? Like Cruella( who would she have issues with, she wanted to kill people), and i would say Milah, bc even tho she has unfinish things with Rumple and Hook, she has the most unfinish business with Neal, that wont be there, unless they will retcon 221 by saying that Milah meet Bae after leaving him and made amends with him and he forgave her in the past.

About TLK like i said in another thread is RB.
