It seems crazy that they might just be introducing different versions of the same character. They then aren’t the same character at all. They wouldn’t have the same memories. I think that seems bizarre. That means that all the characters from the original Ouat are gone if these are different versions of those characters. At this point, we need more information, so i will wait til we see what happens in the finale.
Yeah it does, but I bet that is what they are going to do. So instead of a reboot what we are getting is essentially a spin off. I am okay with that at this point, I will know more how I feel after the finale.
As for the theory of Storybrooke people going to the Wish Realm the main problem with that is if they are already there. I think it would be problematic to have a drunk fat Hook hanging out and a Storybrooke Hook there also, same with Regina. It is already problematic that there is two versions of Regina (EQ who has been banished and Storybrooke EQ) in the wish realm they really should not add a third.
If they do a wish realm version of OUAT I think that is what it will be just our characters in the wish realm. I could see Rumple figuring out that Belle is alive in some other parallel universe and trying to figure out how to get her and Gideon to the wish realm especially if they kill off the Rumple in Storybrooke. I couldn’t see wish realm Hook doing this for Emma because he barely knows her in this universe.
My question is, what will be the dilemma in the wish realm that they need to solve. Are they cursed, are they trying to leave the wish realm, or is it just these characters living their lives in the wish realm.
