Spoiler Discussion: The apple was poisoned?!
Souris replied to regularlyleaded's topic in Once Upon A Time
The only actual spoiler I've seen is Dark Swan & Henry getting into the bug. Wonder where they're going? -
Regina's car & Emma's bug in front of Emma's house.

OUAT vs. Other Fairy Tales: Compare & Contrast
Souris replied to Camera One's topic in Once Upon A Time
I highly recommend Persia Woolley's Guinevere-centric trilogy of novels. They're why I actually like Guinevere, as it's her story and makes her very sympathetic. They're my favorites of all the Arthurian tales I've read or seen. I don't know how readily available they are these days, though. There was one Arthurian novel I slammed shut in disgust when the author compared something in the story to the size of a football field. -
Fandom and Viewer Issues: "Fan" Is Short for "Fanatic"
Souris replied to Emma's topic in Once Upon A Time
From the spoiler thread: Given the stuff we heard happened in Steveston last Friday, no wonder the crew won't let fans closer! It's a cause and effect. I want spoilery filming pictures as much as the next person, but if some fans are going to be assholes and invasive of the cast, then I'm 100% OK with the crew keeping fans far away. -

Ha! Yes, that could very well be. Does anybody care to lay odds on the victim? That said, I really don't want Emma to kill anybody as the Dark Swan, because unlike Regina, she will actually REGRET it after the darkness is taken out of her. Her guilt would be horrible. But I sadly think they probably will have her kill somebody, to prove she's no better than Regina. Except, of course, Regina had no cursed entity overtaking her, just her actual personality. So…. -

Interesting theory, LizaD. That would be a heartbreaker. But there's one spoiler that would seem to contradict it -- in the filming when Snowing, OQ & Arthur join hands against whatever CGI creature they come up with, set reports indicate that Snow asks Regina what she's doing, and Regina replies, "What I should have done in Camelot!" So that implies that they were actually in Camelot at some point. -
New pics from filming in Steveston awhile back (including Dark Swan & Hook by the bug).

Shoot, I've put some pretty out-there spec out here! ;) Speaking of, I was looking at the casting description of Merlin, and he's described as someone who has always put duty in front of his own desires, even at great personal cost. So out of that and JMo talking about past Dark Ones having a good reason for taking on the Dark One mantle, plus a few wild hairs, I'm wondering if the original person that Merlin put the darkness into was somebody who volunteered, perhaps somebody he loved? Maybe somebody who hasn't been cast yet like, say, Morgan Le Fey? It could have been a great sacrifice for both him & his loved one, giving up their happiness in order to save the kingdom. That could parallel Emma's sacrifice nicely. I would actually like that very much, especially if the darkness ultimately ends up being destroyed -- it would bookend the Dark One's creation and its destruction. I toyed with the idea of the original dosage of darkness being from Arthur, taken out of him so that he could be a good and just ruler -- but that would only work if Camelot has been in statis. (And Lancelot being alive to marry Snowing becomes problematic, so that would require some hand-waving to explain away.) I don't really expect this part of it to be what happened. -

Oooh. That would be a nice, pertinent callback -- if the show wanted us to actually remember that Regina murdered Graham. That would make Emma very rage-y. -
Wednesday filming in and around Regina's house.

The previous time the dreamcatcher was used magically, the memory retrieved wasn't what the actual truth was, since what Pongo saw was a deception. That could happen again, since one of the themes of the season is "things aren't what they seem." Emma could see something fake in a dreamcatcher that causes her to go full Dark -- Hook kissing someone he thinks is her (Swan Princess parallel), or her family plotting to take away her magic or send her into the Apprentice hat until they can figure out what to do with her. -

It doesn't specify that it's Emma's memories. Just that the ep is Emma-centric. -
My Panthers have lost two starters to season-ending injuries already in the preseason. Curse you, injury gods!

Oh, darn, the Dreamcatcher title doesn't refer to Neal. ;) -

That's what people are wondering. Maybe it signals there's been a time jump and some people have given up on saving her? -

Souris replied to Camera One's topic in Once Upon A Time
I've seen most every Arthurian movie and none of them have I found to be very satisfying. There's usually one or two aspects of each that I really like, but IMO there has yet to be a fully successful version. Excalibur and Camelot come closest to me. -
Which Captain Swan Episode Are You? quiz. I got Good Form. First CS kiss AND Killian backstory? Hell yeah!

If the town is lacking a Savior, then that implies it needs a new one. They've already been calling Regina the new Savior in some interviews/touting her taking on Emma's role. If one didn't know the latter, it wouldn't necessarily seem like a Regina setup, but since I do…. That was an odd and deliberate question that Eddy asked, which also made me wonder if they were going to turn her Evil Queen again. It seemed to get a mixed or not hugely excited response, but I think some of the audience weren't really expecting it and were a bit confused. I know watching the live Periscope, I was all, "Huh? Wait, what? Why is he asking that?" and then they had moved on. Anything would be better than this have-their-cake-and-eat-it-too approach they've been taking with her, where she's treated as a hero simply for not murdering people anymore but still being a rude, selfish narcissist.
