JosephineParticipant
Just read RG’s review and it’s fantastic and everything I feel. Two thumbs way way up for it.

JosephineParticipantI haven’t laughed that hard in a long, long time. That is just brilliant. Give that tumblr all the awards.

JosephineParticipantThey upset not just shippers but fans of the show. Too many people dismiss the complaints of this show because “Oh, you’re a shipper” but the majority of complaints about this episode have been non-ship related. I can handle watching other ships I don’t like, but I can’t handle the destruction of a brilliant character like Rumple. And then having Henry use his father to manipulate him. Absolutely nobody this season is in character at all. Maybe Belle, and that’s only because despite her status as a series regular she’s had less than five minutes of screen time this season. If we saw her more, she’d be OOC, too.
Someone commented on Barbara’s article that Bobby is being underused. He is a brilliant actor and they’re giving him crap to work with. I don’t blame Barbara for not writing about Once one bit. She was once close with the trolls, so I hope Adam addresses this on Twitter at some point. Even if it’s just to say “sorry for losing you.”
Yeah this isn’t SF related but when are we ever on topic 😉

JosephineParticipantYep. I think Ana is dead, too.

JosephineParticipantOh, I hate this plan. I really really hate it. They writers are destroying Henry/Rumple relationship or the potential for one. We have Henry manipulating his grandfather, pretending to be interested in learning more about his dead father, just so he can weasel information out of Rumple for his mother about the book’s author. I fear what’s going to happen to both of them when the truth comes out. I just abhor this storyline.

JosephineParticipantThe only redeeming part was when Rumple made Hook his….. *thinks of appropriate word she can use here* his lackey.

JosephineParticipantThis is the first Rumple-centric I have no desire to watch. And you guys know how much I love my Rumple. 😐
Would Hook and Emma be shipped together if Hook WASN’T played by Colin O’Donoghue but by an older actor closer to the age of Hook’s traditional characterisation but the storyline and actions we’ve seen of Hook so far remain the same?
I will be the first to admit I’m not a fan of Colin’s portrayal of Hook. To this day I think he was miscast and would have been better as someone like Robin Hood or another rascal. I would have been much more accepting of Hook if he was older. To be a real threat or rival of Rumple’s he needed to be of the same sphere, a contemporary, a real rival. Colin never did that for me. People love Rumbelle despite Bobby Carlyle ticking off no boxes on a hearthrob scale. Yet, he had fangirls and a segment of fandom worshiping him. So I do think that Emma would have been shipped with Hook with a different actor, and it might have been interesting and exciting. However, I also think it would be a fringe ship like Golden Swan was, not anything major. Colin’s pretty face is a reason most people like him, because otherwise he has no story with legs to stand on.

JosephineParticipantYou know what hurts my brain the most? Getting all the names straight. I call them all the wrong names. 😛 I think I’ve broken myself of constantly referring to Wes as “Dean Thomas” (Potterheads who know the movies understand), but I really need to break myself of my nicknames of the others.
I was so exhausted last night that I should have just taped it. I did watch but I don’t know how much I retained . I’ll have to go back over and reread the insights after, as I’ve just woken up from a nap and haven’t had dinner yet so I’m still in a brain fog. But I will add that another thing missing besides the scales on the statue (Is that supposed to be poetic? Justice is no longer balanced and fair?) is PromQueen’s engagement ring. She didn’t mention it this week that I remember but last week she did. It’s gone and we, and she, have no idea where it’s at.
Added: After rereading back up PromQueen’s name is Michaela. I seriously have a problem.
