But… The crystal is used to kill gods….logically iy SHOULD obliterate the spirit because a god is already living in the after life. So either the crystal cant kill gods (why was it important to Hades then?) or it can and RH is nothing now. A&E please -_- I will only accept the Hades is lying thing if they actyally plan on establishing that in the show with a valid reason for why he’d do that
The additional problem here, of course, is also the Zeus factor. Zeus brought back Hook for heroic deeds and valor. But Robin quite literally made what the show believes is the ultimate show of true love by dying for Regina and…is not brought back by Zeus…in spite of this whole “Hades is lying!” thing.
Reason #4564326 why A and E should just stop talking 99.9% of the time
[adrotate group="5"]"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"That was a lot of words to say nothing except “keep watching”
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"What we know:
–Aladdin is another Savior
–Aladdin is exhibiting symptoms of sickness, apparently tied to his Saviorhood
–Jafar says that Savior’s don’t get HEA’s
–There is no way A and E aren’t giving Emma an HEA
In sum: I bet Emma begins to exhibit the same sort of Savior-afflicted symptoms as Aladdin and she keeps it from Hook so he won’t have to deal with the idea of losing her/his HEA.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"PS. What is going on with the posting? It seems like it takes hours for a post to appear? Is this a moderator problem or a server problem or just something that is happening to me?
Server! Daniel knows (both Matt and I were having the same issues) and he’s trying to sort it out. It should be fixed by now so let me know if you’re having issues.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"So ….Robin IS in a better place? And not completely obliterated from existence? Huh? Did…A&E forget the entire point of the crystal?
They addressed this before at SDCC. They said that Hades may not have been telling the truth.
AKA: “oh you mean the fans got really angry at the idea of a good man and father being obliterated??? our bad. Hades lied guyz!”
“We’re super excited to introduce [Jafar] into the world of OUAT!”
Me: “…ummmm”
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Hm. Are they filming 7? It’s an EQ/Regina episode which would explain Charming in his EF clothing (for a flashback)
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Especially now that it hasn’t felt peopled, in my opinion, for a very long time.
Yes, exactly. It has felt like a ghost town for some time, as if the only people who live are the CharMillStiltskins (and various love interests and villains).
As for split seasons, I still think they could have worked for the benefit of the show had A and E not decided to tell two totally different stories each season. No other split season show I know of does this. It’s still a continuous season dealing with the same problems, one half picking up from the last.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Seriously, what is Archie doing out in the forest with his dog and two cups of coffee? That seems really random.
PLOT. Also, your questions are pointless
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"What bothers me about this is that they seem to think the missing part of the equation is simply Storybrooke; as if the small town is the missing piece of the puzzle for a great season of OUAT. But that’s super problematic when you break it down realistically. We’ve never NOT had SB.
S1= All in SB, with Flashbacks to the EF
S2A = split between SB and EF
S2B = SB with flashbacks to the EF
S3A = majority in NVL, but finishing up in SB
S3B = all in SB with flashbacks to the EF and once in Oz
S4A and B = all in SB with flashbacks per normal
S5A = all in SB with flashbacks to Camelot
S5B = majority in the Underworld with the ending in SB and Untold Stories land.
So…here’s the rub. S1? Fantastic. Absolutely killer season. S3B and S5A? Miserable! Horrible! No good! S5B? Better than the past few seasons (according to the majority of fans) than it had been in a long while.
So there is no correlation (no direct one) between quality of show and SB, as if SB is what is needed for a good season of OUAT. It’s not just setting, it’s what you do in the scene in question. The Underworld (while problematic) was a better season and the Oz season that took place exclusively in SB (present day).
The difference, for me, is that in past seasons SB felt alive, fleshed out and real. The stories being told inside the town were heartfelt and emotional, full of interesting and complex characters. The stories being told inside SB the past few seasons (S3B-5A) were devoid of those aspects. Putting us back in SB isn’t the problem; it’s what they do inside SB that matters.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Archie’s holding two coffees. I wonder who the second one is for?
My guess is Emma. I think the balloon/blimpy thing falls to the ground after his session with Emma in which her Saviorhood is discussed.
