It could either be an interesting concept to flip it around, or it could feel like a total rehash. I think it’d be a sort of different twist on the theme, because they’d actually be completely conscious of their present, unlike with the original Curse. And they would actually have memories, they just wouldn’t be real, unlike in the original Curse, where they were just living in a fog.
I think it could be a very interesting concept but I am very worried that it will feel both redundant and confusing. I’m hoping it’s all explained on screen rather quickly because we’ve had these spoilers for about a month now and we’re still going on circles over them. And if WE can’t figure it out…the casual viewer is doomed. So A and E have to make it straight forward enough that people don’t give up.
