Also, we got confirmation that “Mother” is one of the episodes getting a commentary. I’m guessing with Jane Espenson and Lana?
I’d wager so. OR it could be Lana, Sean, and Bex (or any combo of those three)
I’d prefer Barbra, Lana, & Bex….it’s as close to we’ll ever get with Cora, Regina, and Zelena in one place. Hehehee!

I think Cora had interactions with Merlin.
“That means something or someone’s looking out for you,” – Isaac The Author (4×20) to Regina.
Cora interacts with Merlin regarding Regina perhaps?

Let’s see….last season we had many connections with our core cast….I wonder what the connections will be for this one.
Arthur & David (Already confirmed with #Bromance.)
Arthur & Robin Hood (Arthur is wearing a belt with a lion on it, and Lions are on his flags. Robin has a Lion Tattoo.)
Lancelot & Snow White (I guess based on 2×03)
Lancelot & Belle (This is just a total guess, but would be interesting.)
Merlin & Zelena (I don’t know why, but I’ve got my suspicion they’ve crossed paths before)
Guinevere & Regina (Some form of relative from Henry Sr’s line….maybe cousins.)

This…this…this has gotta be the OutlawQueen Dance Scene!!!!!! It explains why Lana Parrilla was working with that choreographer!
That doesn’t really make sense. The ball is at Camelot, which would mean the past. Robin and Regina have only been together in the present SB.
Well…the gang did find themselves in Camelot during 5×01-5×02. And to give a proper welcoming into the kingdom, King Arthur could have held the Ball.
Not to mention the article says this too.
On Once Upon a Time this season, our friends will also attend a society event.

I’m 100% #OutlawQueen, but I have to admit…. #KingQueen was giving me some feels for a second or two.

1st Off: DO!!!!!!!! LONG TIME NO SEE!!!!!!! *hug* Secondly, WR said this in another thread:
Sequel will probably have to do with Mal teaching her mother to love again
I hope not!!!!! Maleficent has to stay evil….right? I mean…hmmm. Maleficent has a sympathetic back story in one film. And she’s kinda sort of good-ish dark in OUAT…. But hmm. No, no! This mal has to stay evulz!!!! For the sequel I think she should gain her normal form again and act as the villain, rallying the other Disney villains against auradon and mal must rally the villain kids against their parents. And then maybe in the end, mal has some sort of slightly redeeming moment but she never actually turns good.
Now that actually sounds like a good idea….because clearly the Villains are on their way off that Island. Disney Villains vs Villains Descendants….I’m for it! But I can’t fight that hunch that they’re working their way to Maleficent becoming an anti-hero rather than a Hero….Fairy God Mother hinted at this when she said Maleficent shrunk herself to the size of love in her heart(which I think was only for Mal), and that to turn back, she’d have to learn to love again and the only way I see that happening is through her daughter.
Imagine The Grinch happening with Maleficent….the love in her heart growing! I would pay money to see Kristin Chenoweth reenact that with her theatrics!!
And I highly doubt they can just shove all those villains back onto that Isle….half of them were dead when they were resurrected on the Isle, but now with their powers back….it’s going to be a fight to take them down. And I guess it’s just a part of me feels sorry for Maleficent….she was once just like Mal but didn’t have friends or true love to stop her from going down that path of darkness her mother led her on….ooohhhhh!!! What if Maleficent’s mother comes back into the picture??!!!!!

Doug hatching from an egg….you know what, I’ll take that as my head-cannon from now on! Thank you TW!!!!
Well the actress who plays Mal, Dove Cameron, said that Mal was a half-fairy I think. Mal’s father is human.
I don’t think Jay’s a genie, and Jane should be a Fairy given who her mother is…and I wonder about Queen Leah too….maybe Maleficent’s mother originally cursed Queen Leah?
In the Isle of the Lost, it was explained that the villains had wifi, but could not connected to Auradon’s.
I wonder myself too TW, if they’re already dead….why would you bring them back to life only to imprison them and their kids forever?!!!! And I think the reason everyone was still so scared of Maleficent was because they knew that somehow, one day they’d get off that island, and Maleficent is known for holding a grudge for the simplest things.
Why do I get the feeling they forgot all about the barrier being down???!!!
Sequel: Villains invade Auradon! XD

Audrey was a spoiled little rich girl…before she became evil, Regina was a really nice, humble, rich good girl…so I’m confused.
Darling read my entire post. Regina from Mean Girls. Not your Regina.
Sorry dear…Regina, Regina…same name different show.
As for who the other side of parents are….it’s explained in the novel Isle of the Lost.
Okay, but I shouldn’t have to read a novel in order to get a basic genealogy chart. I mean, cut a song and give some exposition if you have to. The job as a writer is to explain your characters; not knowing who their parents is bothersome, especially since the relationship with the parents is at the heart of the entire movie.
Okay, from that perspective I see….probably cut that awful rendition of Be Our Guest and let someone ask the Descendants about Carlos, Evie, and Mal’s father and Jay’s mother, and give the answer that way. Unless they’re saving the side of parents for the sequel….is Mal’s father the key to fixing Maleficent’s love issues….I think I’d much prefer if they took the Regina/Henry route with Maleficent/Mal and let the love for her daughter fix Maleficent.
So to have these iconic characters who embodied morals to be instilled in others raising brats is pretty jarring.
Exactly! If I had seen Prince Charming/Cinderella, Aurora/Prince Philip, and Fa Mulan/Li Shang in the movie as haughty, irresponsible, privileged parents then it would make total sense. But as it stands, it’s a major disconnect because saw none of those pairing and thus did not see them act in such a manner, and the pairing we did see was Beast and Beauty who were still loving, kind, considerate (if slightly prejudiced against the villains) and raising a son who was the best of the good kids.
These are Royal Kids attending Boarding School….away from their goodness teaching parents and home nine months, and surrounded by nothing but peer pressure and teenage hormones…I can see where the lessons in goodness sort of just flew out the window, and they became their own person, be it nice or bad. Maybe growing up too fast may have something to do with it….
Doug was truly one of the only nice from start to finish kids in the movie….though I do always wonder, who in Auradon married or slept with Dopey????????!!!!!! That’s currently the biggest mystery to me.

To answer last page question about whether or not the villains loved their kids….it kinda was answered in the movie when Mal told Evie that Maleficent loved her in her own way. So the villains did love their children, but their love was very much similar in a fashion of Cora’s love for Regina, they loved their kids, but wanted and pressured them to be so much like them that they made the descendants feel insecure and constantly like a failure.
Also it was shown that Maleficent had love in her heart, probably only for her daughter, it was just really really little…hence how the love in Mal’s heart won out over the love in Maleficent heart, causing Maleficent to shrink to the size of a lizard.
As for who the other side of parents are….it’s explained in the novel Isle of the Lost. Maleficent had a moment of weakness with a mortal man, meaning she sort of fell for him but it didn’t work out, so from that moment forward she always referred to Mal’s father as an idiot or weakling. Cruella doesn’t even like to talk about Carlos’s father, so he never really asks. Jafar never mentioned Jay’s mother. And Evil Queen is the same way with Evie’s dad. Since they’ve been on the Island for 20 Years, and their kids are only 16, nine times out of ten…the other parents are on the island as well, just have no communication with their child.
And the reason as to how the villains came about was sorta explained, well really only for Maleficent.
“I was once like you my child, slightly insecure. Argued with my mother too, thought I was mature. But I put my heart aside and I used my head…now I think it’s time you learned what dear old mama said.” – Maleficent
So basically, we see that Maleficent was once like Mal, confused as to whether she even wanted to be evil or not. The only reason Mal was able to convert to good was because she learned what love and friendship was like through Ben and her friends, that was something Maleficent didn’t have access to, so she had no one but her mother yapping in her ear about being evil, and no one to tell her otherwise, thus making Maleficent who she was. As for why Evil Queen, Jafar, and Cruella came about…I’ve no explanation there.
And as for how Chad and Audrey came out the way they did, despite who they parents were….simplest explanation. Spoiled rotten, and I mean spoiled rotten!!! Proof of that was shown when Chad said in a bragging manner”My dad’ll just buy me another one.”
One thing I liked about this was that it showed…just because you’re raised by your parents, doesn’t mean you’ll turn out exactly like them because everyone has their own path to take in life.
Regina and her gang are basically the Audrey of Descendents times 3.Audrey was a spoiled little rich girl…before she became evil, Regina was a really nice, humble, rich good girl…so I’m confused.
