That’s great! Neal is Aladdin. The stories are quite similar – but my gut feeling is that we’ll have another “Aladdin” retelling (with genie, wishes, etc.) later on. That would be one heck of a twist, though!

I don’t think Neal will be Peter Pan. I can’t remember where I saw it, but I heard some blond guy was to portray Peter Pan. I will look to see where it is. I just happened to be watching the episode with my 7 year old daughter who happens to be a big fan just as I am. While watching it, she sees Neal and shouts, “Mommy he looks like Aladdin!” Then it hit me. She could be right. Aladdin was a thief with a heart of Gold (like Neal), he was a slick talker (remember in the Disney movie how Aladdin pretended that Jasmine was his mentally unstable sister….like Neal pretended Emma was girlfriend unable to drive a stick?) Aladdin was an orphan, but his Father returned later (hmm….Baelfire/Rumple?). What if what August showed Neal was in fact a Magic Lamp? Could the Tallahassee thing be their ‘whole new world’? Just a thought…..that came from the mind of a 7 year old girl!
That is so clever of her! She is right. There are a lot of similarities. 😀
Epic catch. I always thought it would be kind of funny if Neal had a picture of a younger him and we saw it, but no one else recognized the connection. This is going to be so much fun to see Rumple’s reaction to the news…
A good friend and I have been discussing Neal for a week now. Although I thought Neal was Aladdin, my friend reminded me that there could be no way that Neal would be Aladdin, Peter Pan or any FT character as they were cursed to stay within Storybrooke or in FT Land. Neal was outside of both realms. It is very possible that Neal is Baelfire, but it is also quite possible that he could just be a….I guess you could say….Mortal. Also the poster of the Dylan character is off. It may be him, but it may just be a coincidence.

Hi Sariebelle,
I think that it is possible for Neal to be a FT character because Pinocchio is from the enchanted forest but because he wasn’t in FT Land when the curse was enacted it did not affect him…same ithing with Emma. If Neal was a FT character who was already in our world, like Emma was, he most likely would have been protected from the curse.
I really want Neal to be a FT character (Peter Pan) but it could make for some really funny scenes if he was a mortal…sort of a Bewitched version of Once Upon a Time. 😀
I don’t really know where to post this, but I saw this on Tumblr and had just had to share.

I love SwanFire fans! I would have never even have noticed this.
(Henry is just doing it a little bit, but kudos to ladyannarielle for finding all these photos.)I thought that this link, http://theclassics4.tumblr.com/post/36594637046/the-perfect-crinkley-eyed-smile-robert-carlyle was cute too not only because it has a lot of pictures of Robert Carlyle smiling but also because MRJ’s face gets all crinkly like that too when he smiles.
Thanks for posting this. There is a huge similarity with MRJ and Robert Carlyle’s features. 😀 And even in the episode, I thought Neal’s actions were a bit like Mr. Gold, along with his insecurities and a bit of his guilt.
Yes I can see some resemblances in those photos, however Neal looks a little creepy in that photo 😯
Even if he is Bae, I really hope there is no reunion with Emma (a little CaptainSwan bias :P)
