I keep hoping that they will do something interesting next season. They said that they are going to try and use the other untold story characters to reveal more about the main characters. That is what they should do. They can do that and go into the deep family issues that have never been discussed on the show. I just don’t kn0w if the writers really get what issues have been dropped. All the abandonment stuff with Emma. Regina and Snow’s relationship as step mother and daughter. Henry’s issues with losing his father as well as growing up without Emma. There are so many things. I just think the writers seem to think oh we have had one conversation about these issues, the characters hugged, so it’s over. That is just not real. Henry losing his father. Emma growing up in the system. Regina’s mass murdering tendencies, the abuse her mother did her. There are issues that will never go away. They will always be part of the characters and part of their interactions and the writers just don’t get it.
[adrotate group="5"]They keep trying to explain why the stories are known in our world and not in the fairytale world and i think they just shouldn’t try to explain that.
Yeah, they actually did a big reveal for the episode when Buffy tells the scoobies that she was in heaven and not in some hell dimension like they thought. Buffy was finally at peace in heaven and they brought her back to earth and that is why she is such a complete mess in Season 6. They used this spell where they would sing there thoughts and Buffy told them all something she was hiding. Though Ouat is complete drivel compared to Buffy.
Joss Whedon very famously took off most of season 6–no writing or directing— of Buffy in order to solely focus on “Once More With Feeling.” Also, EVERYTHING Slurpeez said.
Well, writing music is really hard and Joss Whedon is a really good writer. There is no way that Adam and Eddie could write music. They wouldn’t even know where to start.
I agree that still are, and always will be, each other’s true love. Why else would Emma declare she never stopped loving him and that she probably always would? Why else have Neal declare in 5×12 that he loved Emma and always would? Because they still love each other, deeply. Outside of Snow and Charming loving each other truly, Neal and Emma’s love the simplest and most obvious case of romantic true love in the series. The swan pendant only confirms what is obvious to others who aren’t CS fans with myopic vision. Hence, Belle’s reasonable explanation for why the swan pendant crossed realms, the way Snowing’s ring and Rumbelle’s chipped cup did. Also, I agree that Emma shoving Hook out of way in S5b really wasn’t a clear demonstration of Hook being Emma’s new true love. It was a way to appease CS fans while leaving it very open-ended and ambiguous whether it confirmed anything new. In my estimation, the only thing it shows for sure is that Emma has true love in her heart and thus was able to pass. Of all of the people in the world, Emma Swan is most likely to fit that specific qualification because she is born of her parents’ true love and is The Savior. Of course, her heart is going to be full of true love! I think Emma would have done the same for any of her family and close friends, including Regina or Ruby. Does that mean Emma is in love them? No. While I think Emma is in love with Hook, she didn’t seem so certain when she brought it up to Hook whether that love was real or not. I think when love is real, you don’t have to question it. You just know. Finally, if Hook really were Emma’s new true love, I think her splitting her heart to try and save him would have worked. But it clearly didn’t. She almost suffered a heart attack when Regina tried splitting it.
Right, there is confirmation in canon that Neal is Emma’s true love and there is not confirmation that Hook is really her new true love. I think Emma going after Hook was more about her not wanting to lose someone else then really about Hook. If she would have known she could save Neal she would have saved him and everything about the true dream scene suggests that Emma is still in love with Neal. The writers made a mistake when they changed their story because people figured it out and now it is an complete mess, but that doesn’t change the fact that Emma and Neal are true loves and that was the way the story was written.
I actually do think that Emma knows when her birthday is exactly or at least within a day. I think it is very obvious when a baby is a newborn. There are all sorts of things about a newborn baby or thinks that happen right after a baby is born that makes it very obvious the baby has just been born.
I do agree that it seems like a lot of the people seem to base all of their complaints about Neal’s age at the time of Henry’s conception on how the actors look at the time. That is just complete nonsense. Obviously neither Jennifer or MRJ’s look 17 or 18, but that has no relevance at all. I agree completely with everything you said about them being true loves, they still are, based on Emma’s reaction to her true dream where she spoke to Neal in the last season. She is, clearly, still in love with Neal and would have come to save him if she could have. Jennifer has always acted as if it is Neal who is her true love and not Hook and that is how it is portrayed in the show, regardless if the writers are now trying to have their cake and eat it to by pretending that Hook is possibly her new true love. Though that is not canon.
Also, there was another post about Neal’s age when Emma got pregnant. Someone using the wanted poster as a way to know his age. That is all just meaningless to me. There is no evidence that Neal is six years older or even three years older, if he lied about his age when he arrived in the real world. There is literally no information known about how old Neal is supposed to be at that time. All that we do know is that he had a job as a security guard and he stole some watches. He was probably at least 18 years old or saying he was 18 years old at the time. As far as i am concerned, there is no other credible evidence about Neal’s age, everything else is speculation, and therefore head canon.
What we do know is, as i have said, that their relationship as shown on the actual show was one of equals. Neal did not corrupt Emma or bring her down into a life of crime. That did not happen. He actually does the opposite. He wants them to stop being criminals and make a home together. As far as i am concerned, Emma and Neal are the same age until proven otherwise in canon. Though, i think, in the end, it does not matter at all.
Exactly, you have to be a really good writer to write a musical episode. Writing music is just an entirely different thing. I can’t imagine that Eddie and Adam write poetry. They can’t even write a good prophecy. I think they say that they would like to write a musical episode because they know that is what the audience wants to hear, but they really have no desire at all to do so and have no intention of doing so either.
