    I agree though it would be great if this is the last we see of the silly apple.

    That tweet makes me happy. Jennifer has shut the door and i am glad. Here is hoping for a good new cast.

    I can’t believe they would waste Emma’s one appearance on an episode with Hook. It should be with Henry since Henry is the main character. I think that does not bode will for this season and while Emma is my favorite character and always has been, i hope this is the last we see of her.

    It does seem weird that they have tossed the history they have built over the last six years. It seems like all of the side characters that they have that pop in and out are going to be gone too.

    The poster just seems like a way to keep the no spoilers nonsense going. Maybe instead of no spoilers, they should try and actually promote the show.

    The problem is though that they have already done a Cinderella. This Cinderella needs to be different then the one they have already done, but she can’t be that different or she isn’t really Cinderella. It is just a weird choice.

    I agree though, they cannot have a new Snow, Charming, and Evil Queen. It is one thing for a minor character, but not for those.

    Another question that will be answered early will be whether Hook and Emma have a kid together. “[We’ll] answer that at the beginning of the season,” Kitsis confirmed.

    That seems to all but confirm that they do. The issue is time because none of the actresses cast so far can pull off a 14 yr old if CS had a baby right away or younger as is more likely the case. It’s the same reason why many of us believed none of the actresses could be baby Robyn.

    Well even if they have a teenage baby two for Emma that doesn’t mean the actor has to actually be a teenager. There are a lot of 25 year old actors playing teenagers out there. I am not saying any of these actors are, but someone older could be playing younger.

    What I’m saying is that they’re riffing on the multiverse theory, which other shows are doing (very well) right now. I’m not saying they’re doing it RIGHT, because as I said, the same characters with the same names should still have the same face, (like in Arrow, they killed Earth-1 Laurel Lance, who was a goodguy, and now they’ve brought in Earth-2 Laurel Lance, who is played by the same actress, but is a badguy). They’re ripping off the idea that’s been successful for other shows, and attempting their own version, but the logic of their version doesn’t make sense.

    Quote

    Yeah, the reason a multi verse is interesting on a show is because it is the same actor playing a different version like the Laurels or all the characters on Fringe. They are trying to do this, but what they are doing does not make sense, in my opinion. One it isn’t actually a different universe. They are all in the land without magic. Henry drove from Storybrooke where the other Cinderella is to Seattle where his Cinderella is at. The idea that there is another Enchanted Forest 2 out there causes a whole lot of problems. How do they get there if it is actually a different universe and how did they get to the Land Without Magic? It can’t be just the same normal bean way or curse way and it be a multi verse, at least not to me.

    I think the writers of this show just don’t care about the complication of doing things like this. You have to keep your timeline and your world building so tight and they cannot do it. They just aren’t doing it right. It is just willy nilly, oh there is magic, we can do anything with magic, it doesn’t have to be consistent with itself or consistent with the rules of the world, it can just be anything.

    I have no desire to see a Regina who is not Henry’s mother. I am hoping that she, at least, is our Regina from Storybrooke because Regina has nothing holding her there anyways. I am really hoping they just focus on the new characters, but we know they aren’t because they are wasting the second episode of the season on Hook which the majority of the audience does not want to see.

    It seems like Hook is still missing his hand. He has one regular hand and then another with a black glove.

    Assuming that Emma’s been turned to stone in her Bug, (which I’m pretty sure of, especially if they’re gonna have Henry unknowingly drive past that statue)

    Yeah, they may use that statue story, but actually the real statue is equal to that one, that is not something created just to use on OUAT, that is a replica that has the same Troll and Car in Seatle, so is probably just something created to say that they are really in Seatle,

    Quote

    Yeah I know it’s a statue that’s actually in the real Seattle. But there would be MANY statues and other recognisable landmarks around Seattle that they could have recreated in order to make their version of Seattle look like the real thing. It’s not a coincidence that they happened to choose the statue of a troll and a VW Bug. In fact, I have to wonder if that statue (the real life one) is actually the reason they chose to set S7 in Seattle of all places. Like, someone in the writers’ room knew that this statue of a VW Bug trapped by a troll existed, and then they decided to build Emma’s fate around that, and as an extension of that, that’s why the story is now happening in Seattle.

    Quote

    I was thinking something like this as well. It isn’t just a coincidence that they are using that landmark.

    It is not a multi verse theory though. This is a different individual whose name is also Cinderella. Why does Cinderella look different while Hook and Rumpel look the same? We haven’t seen Regina in the present day scenes in the new neighborhood, so we don’t know if it is a new Regina or not. Maybe just Regina is the same and is still our Regina who is Henry’s mother.

    Are they seriously going to have a new Snow and a new Aurora and a new Peter Pan and a new just everyone? Multi verse like Fringe is where there are these slightly different versions of everyone is not what they seem to be doing. The whole there is a cartoon version and a live action version and a book version is the dumbest explanation that i have ever heard. The whole point was that the characters on Ouat were supposed to be the real versions of all of those characters.

    The whole how are these stories in our world before they existed in time in the Enchanted Forest never bothered me because it is a simple fix, the author can move through time.
