Hopefully this will be the end of Spoilergate 2015.
@TheWatcher, if you’re still looking for a copy of the “script” you can find it here along with a rundown of why the script was a fake[adrotate group="5"]TheWatcher wrote: I said this in another thread but what if Lily becomes the New Dark One? Then it will literally be the light magic on True Love (Emma) vs Lily’s dark magic of…darkness… I love this theory. Emma the savior vs Lily the anti-savior. It works for me, because I would openly weep if Emma becomes Black Swan, which would be the worst sort of character assassination in my estimation.
If the show is going the AU route as we suspect, then perhaps another option would be Hook finally succeeding in killing the Dark One with the dagger and becoming the Dark One himself. Seeds of this idea were planted in the 415, first when Killian mentions that he should have plunged the dagger into Rumples chest to Emma and then on board the Jolly Roger with Poseidon when he spoke of finally getting his revenge. I haven’t heard anything of RC filming with the rest of the cast lately (not that means anything considering the lack of recent set spoilers) but if this is the case than perhaps the idea of someone else becoming the Dark One is pretty valid.
And yeah, I’m not crazy about Emma becoming the Dark Swan either.
So is she filming a FTL scene? In an AU where Maleficent never lost her?
You may just be right. Mal gets her happy ending but that doesn’t necessarily mean that she’s on the side of good.

Well, she’s suspiciously dressed all in black. No evil cleavage though 🙂 Think that might be a prerequisite for villainy on this show.

I guess they did a reading at the acting school earlier today.
Okay, so playing devils advocate here (ie not trying to start an argument), but if Nicole’s last name was Singh or Napoletano or Ahmadi and they cast her in the part of a young dark haired and dark eyed Lily , would they have to hire an actress of the same ethnicity to play adult Lily, or just someone who looked similar to the young actress? Similarly, if they found a Persian actress who looked Latina and had a likeness to Nicole, would that have been an issue? We’re all just assuming that a Latina actress was cast because of Lana which I don’t particularly buy, mainly due to the casting call. Who knows, maybe Agnes will be transformed into a convincing doppelganger for an adult Nicole. But, whatever.
For the record, I agree that Once has a woeful track record with regards to POC. I just don’t think its necessary to make an issue out of this particular casting because Agnes isn’t Latina.
I have an issue with everyone calling adult Lily “miscasting”. The casting call for young Lily described her as “”a bright, self-reliant teen who boasts a charming, take-no-prisoners punk exterior and the heart of a secretive, insecure opportunist”. No where did it specify for a Latina actress. Perhaps they chose a dark haired and eyed actress who maybe could be paralleled to Regina, but did not necessarily need to be. Lana is only half Latina, her mother being Italian. They could just as easily have chosen anyone of southern European heritage to play the part if they wanted the actress to look like Lana. Why pigeonhole an actress as “Latina” when the part was given on merit and not ethnicity? The actress who played young Lily did a great job and I personally didn’t look at her onscreen and think of her as being cast because she was any particular ethnicity.
Thanks for the heads up @obisgirl, downloading from iTunes now. I really missed their podcast. Here’s to hoping ABC will release a sneak peek this week 🙂
@lady and @obisgirl you both did wonderful work outlining why this ship is so beautiful-thank you!!! I won’t be participating (refuse to leave this thread) but thank you for representing CS. That said, I’m sure we’ll get bashed tomorrow for Day 14 (and on Valentine’s Day too!). Meh, don’t care. Frankly, I’ve become pretty ambivalent about anything outside this thread. It’s always the same people complaining about this and that anyway.. On the bright side, two more weeks before the hiatus is over.
This about sums up my relationship status with CS:
happy Valentine’s day all!
