OMG! The beginning of Broken is a RED HERRING!

Ya, some people work for a livin’ and can’t post all day every day. I’m sorta flattered that your obsessed with me and my posts but I’m married and don’t care for stalkers, neither does the wife. Ya need to chill and learn to take a few hits when people don’t agree with ya.

Granted, I haven’t been active in the forums for awhile (college) but is everyone involved with this thread joking? 😯

I don’t know what’s going on exactly now 😆
But I find this interesting,the start of Broken didn’t make sense to me at first and when I watched it the first time I thought I was on the wrong channel 😆 ,the beginning didn’t make sense in how the sounds/music appearing and the switching of scenes wasn’t normal ‘Once’ style to me. I’m still a little confused on what it might mean altogether but it is an interesting idea

Maybe it was filmed in a diff manner because it wasn’t FTL or Storybrooke.

The S1 pilot opened that way….in the real world, so, they opened S2 in the real world.

I think it’s as simple as that.

They introduced Emma that way and they introduced Neal that way, nothing more.

This is what I think, and that the filming style and effects were to make the real world kind of feel mundane compared to magical realms and Storybrooke.

That is a good theory Lil’Red…I guess we will have to wait and find out if things have been what they have seemed. Time will tell… 😀

Craxyfox…I’ve got some screen shots and more details that I will post tomorrow…I’m directing a children’s play this evening and I’m still working on last minute costume problems. One pattern to look for that helps support the theory is that when we see obvious “errors”..Clock Tower reflection in the window with no clock on top…props behind Emma changing etc…in these cases the characters are talking about deceiving people..operation Cobra talk…throwing people off track talk.

We also have some scenes where it looks like the camera is pointed toward a scene but the camera is really pointing toward a mirror and the real scene is behind us…in these scenes there is trickery going on. Example: Emma and Sidney discussing the info they got when they broke into Regina’s office. We later realize that Emma has been tricked by Sidney and Regina…it was all a set up. Another example is when Emma is looking at the art work above Jefferson’s fireplace. the camera pans back and we realize that we have been looking in a mirror. That whole scene is about Jefferson setting Emma up…tricking her. Another example…when Henry is riding his bike to his castle and he sees that it is damaged and his book is gone…we first see Henry riding his bicycle toward us and then the camera pulls back and we realize we have been seeing Henry in the reflection of Emma’s side mirror. We later learn that the whole castle thing was a trick that Regina pulled on Emma and Henry. These are just three scenes that come to my mind…there may be more.

I’m looking forward to the next half of the season, because now…there is a good chance that there are things that we thought we knew…but will turn out to be something completely different. 😀

One more thought……with all the talk we have had about dreams…surely they wouldn’t pull a “Dallas”/ Wizard of Oz moment on us…you know the moment when someone wakes up and it has all been a dream. 😮

Thanks for sharing all that! I’ll definitely have to go back and rewatch those episodes 🙂
I think if this was all a dream,there would be a mob of people with torches and pitchforks at the producers’ houses 😆

Thank you craxyfox! I don’t know how much of it would be a dream…but think about it…what happened to Emma and Mary Margaret after they were sucked through the spinning tornado like portal…they were knocked out…just like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz. 😀

Then we have David in a sleeping curse…Henry asleep having dreams…Aurora asleep having dreams…August who turned to wood…laying in the bed…we had Belle having a dream…we that scene where Regina was going to strangle little Snow, that turned out to be a day dream…we had Regina having a dream about being executed…tied to a tree…I think it might be time to rethink everything we’ve seen and figure out what is real and what is a dream. 😀

If we have been seeing some dreams…then maybe some people we think are dead are very much alive.

We could even have more than one person dreaming…theories and guesses and questions…Oh My!
