    Word is they start filming tomorrow. I wouldn’t count on publicly taken photos from Vancity or anything though. I expect the entire thing to be done in a green screen soundstage.

    Paul “Pee-Wee Herman” Reubens is an interesting choice for the White Rabbit. I can definitely see him working!

    If this means just one longer winter hiatus and no further ones for Season 3, I am totally ok with this. People have suggested that ABC give Once a split Season treatment. With the Winter Olympics in February, this might be another reason. If Wonderland will air on Sundays too is the question, though.

    I still say watch and see Tamara to really turn out to be a normal person and not a FTL character. Although, I am always amused and amazed at the elaborate theories everyone has. I noticed Adam and Eddy tend to plan things a bit more simpler and predictable than we assume, though.

    On a related note, one thing I would like to see directly addressed is whether characters like Wendy and Alice were really from our world or if they are from some fictionalized version of our world? Victor’s world “A Land Without Color” already implied a fictionalized version of a real life location, Switzerland. Is there some fictionalized realm of London that has a connection to Neverland? Adam & Eddy seemed to imply that there are ficitonalized realms of real life locations, Mulan being identified as one example. The fictionalized realm theory makes more sense in my opinion, because how did our real life authors get the story of Wendy’s time in London?

    I’m not convinced we’ll see Neal in NL at all this season. Just makes more sense to me if he goes to FTL, considering that’s where we last saw MAP.

    However, Phillip’s soul did get hinted to have been sent to another realm. As others theorized, that could be Neverland. They also filmed those scenes on a beach, which fits the Neverland setting.

    Yeah but I think the gaps between episodes would lead you to think its not an exact timeline, including the whole summer break was about a 5 to 10 minute gap in the Storyline, I think first season might have lined up more but this season has been really condensed with Emma and Snow in FTL and what has occurred from episodes 2×10 to 2×16.

    also henry could have had 11 candles and one for good luck on his cake

    Perhaps this is a question someone needs to ask Adam on twitter. I do think it will be Henry’s 12th birthday, which does make sense if what I said is true. Henry was 10 in October 2011, which means he turned 11 last year, so his 11th birthday definitely already passed at least before October 2012. I don’t think they would be holding a really late birthday party. Yeah the timeline may not make sense as far as how events have lined up, but I think the writers are sticking to each episode roughly occurring in accordance to real time to make things simpler on themselves. We also don’t know how long Emma and Snow were really in FTL. There were definitely moments with them traveling, sleeping, etc. that we didn’t necessarily see. FTL is a big place, so it could have took quite some time to get from one place to another, especially on foot.

    I don’t understand the posters not understanding the copyright holder doesn’t want photos (his intellectual property) being posted elsewhere. He owns the copyright. That would be like me taking copies of a book and posted them online. Not cool. Posting a link is easy and doesn’t put the site owner at right. Easy peasy.

    Valid points, although I’ve heard that ABC themselves are not enthused with Vancity or those other photo sites taking photography during filming of episodes either. Most likely, ABC’s issue is that these photos tend to spoil certain things to the public way ahead of time. Of course ABC’s own publicity department spoiling things is another issue in itself =p. I think since those photos were taken on public streets, since Stevestone is a real town, it is technically fair use. Of course that doesn’t mean ABC still wouldn’t be peeved about it, and I wouldn’t be surprised if they have at least attempted a claim to have those sites remove all photos before just like Vancity is telling the rest of the internet. They might be his photos and property, but they are still photos taken of ABC’s property.

    Yeah, I don’t buy that Regina was able to do magic like sending Kurt to another realm prior to the curse broken. Magic was very scarce prior to Rumple bringing it into town. She could only create new magic from existing magical objects.

    We know Skin Deep season 1 episode 12 happened Valentines day (though the episode actually aired 12 Feb not 14 so that’s not exactly same time). The Doctor season 2 episode 5 happened around Halloween because there were pumpkins around Granny’s Diner. So between February and October the events of 15 episodes need to occur. 15 episode events over the course of 9 months is possible especially if there are time jumps between events in Storybrooke where nothing was happening such as 2 weeks passing timewise between Graham’s death and Emma running for Sheriff.

    However, Emma’s birthday has likely been skipped this season since Storybrooke is running in present day and Emma’s birthday is in October. October in Storybrooke was episode 5 of season 2.

    Right. I think we can all assume that each episode roughly occurs around their respective airdates. I say roughly, because some episodes clearly do happen during the same day or the day after. However, there are several episodes where plenty of time could have already passed. For example, there could have been a gap between “The Miller’s Daughter” and “Welcome to Storybrooke.” In a way, it makes logical sense that the events of Storybrooke are happening alongside their airdates to make sense of the weather shown. Like how we see snow and use of warmer clothing during episodes that were produced during the winter.

    By the way, Vancity Filming has offered a “blanket permission” for using their photos, but it’s much more than we can afford.

    They’re trying to charge other sites for the permission to use their photos? All I can say is, wow….
