More Spoilers for Season 2

[princesssnow]

I LOVE the idea of Dr. Whale being the Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland. Now THAT would be unexpected!

Looking forward to seeing Noah Bean again as Daniel, only because I actually liked seeing young!Regina.

I’m wondering if we’ll see Daniel in flashback, though. Cora and YoungSnow are in ep 2, I think it was, so I can’t see them dedicating another ep to YoungRegina as soon as ep 5. With the SB pics of Dr Whale, I’m wondering if this will be his flashback ep. If so, it’s possible that he knew YoungRegina and Daniel, so they could make an appearance in his backstory. There’s that pic floating around of David, Noah and Lana just hanging out, having a group hug, so perhaps they’ve all been shooting stuff together?

I’m so bored waiting for more spoilers and for better promos! 😥 This time last year it seemed like ABC had been promoting Once Upon a Time for quite awhile. Okay maybe wasn’t exactly at this time since it started later last year, but I do know that the promotion for the show was a lot bigger last year because before the pilot people at TWoP and another message board I visit complained about all the publicity for it. I don’t know what’s going on with ABC, but it seems like they’ve really dropped the ball.

Anyhow, here’s a few things I’ve found from other places, mostly FanForums.

From Entertainment Weekly,

now White escorts a friend through an exotic rural village. “I know this world,” she assures. “And it’s dangerous.”

– Magic now exists in the modern-day Maine town, except the Queen quickly learns it doesn’t work quite the same as in fairy-tale land.

– Characters have their memories back, which leads to all sorts of raw feelings–such as Emma having mixed emotions about her newly discovered parents. “She didn’t anticipate how much resentment she’d have for them giving her up,” says Morrison, whose character will also get some romance this season(her suggestion: Robin Hood).

So basically not really anything new except it confirms Emma and Snow traveling through Fairy Tale Land together. Oh, and Lana suggested pairing up Regina with Captain Hook. I’m guessing that’s more likely than Emma/Robin Hood because Robin already has a true love, unless it’s just a flirtation or fling.

The title for episode 2, which I need to post over there too, is “We Are Both”.

On the Michael Raymond-James front, he was just offered a pilot on his Twitter by a producer 8 hours ago, I wonder what he’ll answer if he answers at all in public. I would expect Bae to be a long term character, but he might not be able to answer publicly that he’s already committed to a show, or he might but just try to be vague about it. I’m hoping for the latter just for some kind of spoiler.

Here’s yet another major spoiler. Don’t read below if you don’t want to be spoiled:

TVLINE BONUS SPOILER | An unexplored part of Snow White’s past apparently includes one memorable knight. “Lancelot (played by Teen Wolf’s Sinqua Walls) has a, uh, very ‘complicated’ relationship with Snow,” Kitsis teases. “The two of them have a secret that I’m not sure Charming knows.”

Oh no, I finally got something major, but it’s not what I wanted to read. Although I did suspect this only because I think that Charming’s real name is going to turn out to be a surprise like Arthur. (Not my theory, but it makes sense the way they’ve kept it such a mystery.)

I guess Emma and Snow do time travel. I’m guessing that there are two Snows though because surely present!Snow wouldn’t already be tempted by someone else, but she has to deal with Emma seeing whatever happened.

I just hope they do time travel in a way that makes sense because I’m thinking now that perhaps Snow, whether that be past!Snow or present!Snow or even Emma, wrote Henry’s book to ensure that Henry would get it later. Although it’s not my number one theory for the author of the book, if they’re time traveling, it could explain how they found out the stories of everyone. I would prefer it if time travel wasn’t used in the case of the Book or something important because if they started messing with the past like that, then there’s all these what-ifs about why they didn’t do _____ also to stop _____. It just causes too many problems and headaches, imo, if they start tampering with the past.

Perhaps it is Lancelot that teaches Snow how to fight. Her attitude in Snow Falls is different from that in Red Handed where she seemed to be struggling to get by. Charming was too busy finding Snow to teach her. Maybe whilst Lancelot was teaching her, an attraction developed between him and Snow and they may have possibly shared a kiss. Snow isn’t going to admit to Charming that she fancied another guy. What if Charming and Snow are sort of taking on the roles of Arthur and Guinivere? There could be a love triangle between Snow, Lancelot and Charming.

For some reason it seemed to me that Ep 3 would take place after Snow and Charming were together. I guess because it seemed like Charming was in the fairytale land parts of that episode as well as his mother. I guess it is possible that they split up. I sort of wonder if there is a bounty put on Charming’s mother and Lancelot is one of them, but he ends up helping protect him, but they fail. I like the idea that Charming’s name is Arthur. That would be interesting.

Running with the theory that Charming’s name is Arthur and is potentially King Arthur with the round table, would that then make Charming’s sword Excaliber. They seemed to highlight the sword in a Land without Magic when Mr Gold is giving it to Emma.

I wouldn’t mind Lancelot being the one to train Snow or them to have even had a brief romance that didn’t go anywhere, but I don’t like the idea of Charming and Snow representing Arthur and Guinevere. I don’t mind them doubling up, well usually, with characters that represent more than one fairy tale, but I think the writers would be trying to cram to much into one set of characters if Charming and Snow are also Arthur and Guinevere and David/James and Mary Margaret. I think that there’s a lot that they could do if they ever decide to cover Arthur and Guinevere, but if Charming and Snow are them, then I’m afraid they’ll either skew too much towards the King Arthur story once again tainting what I love about Snowing, or they’ll just gloss over it being a big deal that Snowing are also Arthur and Guinevere, and for me I don’t think either approach would really work.

Also, if Snow and Charming get to be Guinevere and Arthur, then does Lancelot also get to be someone else famous too, or is he just Lancelot? I could see a lot of complaints if it’s the latter.

Hopefully, the writers know what they’re doing and it’s being blown out of proportion to get fans talking because I thought the last thing that Snowing needed was another love triangle to be involved in. For me, it’s like Emma and Snow being separated from the rest of Storybrooke, there’s already a lot of drama that they could do with them also being in Storybrooke without having to separate them from everyone else so soon.

[Phee]

My problem with Snowing being Arthur and Guinevere is that really, wasn’t Lancelot her true love? I suppose they could write it in a way that they just had a fling pre-Charming, and there’s no unresolved romance between them, so I could learn to like the idea if it’s done right, but my initial reaction is to not really like it. Not really sure how they could make it work, given the info we have about the character so far. “In his tragic past, he was torn from his true love and banished from the king and country he served.” Which sounds like in the Onceiverse, Lancelot’s downfall is the same reason as in the legend, where Arthur was aware of the affair. If so, and Charming is Arthur, it wouldn’t make sense that this secret that Charming doesn’t know about is a former relationship between them. But then again, my assumptions could be way off, (wouldn’t be the first time :P).
