TV Guide Ariel & Eric scoop + new pic

[TheWatcher]

But also in the stage version, as the rightful Queen of the Sea, Ursula was eating all her subjects. That’s why Triton banished her on top of her usage of black magic. I can post the link to the song where she explains everything.

Here is the song, “I want The Good Times Back” where Ursula explains the backstory of her and Triton.

Does she wear a crown at all in the stage version? Like, does she have one before she gets banished and it’s dramatically taken from her or anything like that? I noticed there’s mention of her wanting the crown in that song. Just asking because the squid on the banner seems to be wearing a crown, but movie Ursula doesn’t have a crown until she temporarily claims Triton’s at the end.

Gods and goddesses are always “terrible” in the sense of, “terrible amount of power, so you just worship them, you don’t defy them, or they won’t hesitate to cut you down.” I’d think that if she was “terrible” in the sense of “consistently doing nasty stuff to everyone” like in the movie, she’d be known as evil, and wouldn’t be worshiped by good folks like Eric.

One thing I’m pretty sure of is that this rules out Regina being Ursula, because it seems Ursula is known to humans as being her own, specific, worship-able entity. A few days ago I posted that perhaps Regina will get to KILL Ursula, so now I have a new thought, (because the 50 frillion different versions of Little Mermaid headcanon I’ve had previously just isn’t enough :-P). Ariel loves Eric, whose kingdom is under the control of Ursula. Ursula’s starting to go off the rails and get dark. So in an effort to help Eric’s kingdom out, Ariel goes to Regina for help in dethroning Ursula, which is the mermaid problem she mentions to Rumple, and both of them help in some way with the destruction of Ursula. With Ursula and her magic destroyed, mermaids can no longer become temporarily human, so Ariel’s been stuck as a mermaid ever since, until she ends up in SB where magic is different and she suddenly finds herself with legs again.

Wasn’t there something about how Ariel wouldn’t eat a crab? So this could tie into that.

Or….it could be leading into my super-wacky-pet-cracky theory: Urusula is Undead Zombie Milah risen from her watery grave. Daniel was resurrected, body preserved and the results were not pretty. Squid Ink is very magical, plus PP could have used his “immense” abilities to set up the ultimate way to mess with everyone, but until it was time for that, she was messing with Ariel.

There was an early version of the stage version I saw where she takes Triton’s crown when SHE banishes HIM. But not anymore In the more recent ones. Her hair is much to crazy for it anyway 🙂

Thanks RG 😛

I think what Phee says sounds plausible, that it is Regina’s favorite kill, taking down Ursula. Because it’s kind of a good thing, but she’s doing it for the wrong reasons. It would bite Ariel in the tail getting rid of the one way that she gets to be with her love, but stopping the despot that’s ruining lives (unknowingly setting up another!). Perhaps she thinks Regina will permanently grant her legs but it doesn’t quite work out that way until the curse (in the you get your wish but not the way you want it sort of theme).

I attempted to work my photoshop magic on the picture. It didn’t really work as well as the last one I did (the one of the ship from Heart of the Truest Believer). Although I only worked on it for about 10 minutes.

 

*squints*  Either I have Doctor Who on my mind, or Ariel’s skirt looks like it has Gallifreyan written on it.

Also, I’m not a fan of Ariel’s pink dress from ‘The Little Mermaid’, but so far I like this one.

In Wonderland when Alice was amazed that the mushroom was bigger on the inside, that made me think of Doctor Who. I don’t think Ariel’s dress pattern is Galifreyan though.

Te crest of arms in the background looks like it has an octopus wearing a crown on it.

All magic comes with a price!

I thought the exact same thing and tweeted that to the official WL twitter. They actually retweeted me too. (And the caterpillar was wearing a Fez)

I think the “Twist” on Eric early spoilers teased is that he owes allegiance to Ursula as sea goddess and now must choose between the woman he loves and the divine being to whom he owes fealty.
