KingOfHearts July 8, 2016 Share July 8, 2016 (edited) What they've been saying in the spoiler rooms could be gathered from the finale. Even casual watchers can figure it out. All we really know about that's new is the casting news, the 22-episode format, and the fact Archie is returning. Everything else is vague and inarticulate. Quote “What’s funny is in the pilot if you watch when Emma sees the wolf that stops her from leaving town, the book flips open and we see all these worlds,” Kitsis says. “It’s time to tell new stories, broaden the show and move forward.” As for why these stories have not yet been told, Kitsis points to something Hyde said in the finale: “As he said, I need a place where these stories can play out, which would make me think for some reason they weren’t being played out, they were pushed on pause.” It sounds like Land of Untold Stories is just Storybrooke 2.0.

legaleagle53 July 8, 2016 Share July 8, 2016 What this means is that Emma will ultimately be responsible for bringing about the happy endings of the Land of Untold Stories now, which really does seem to be her purpose in life (being everyone's Savior). She just doesn't know it yet. 2 Link to comment
RadioGirl27 July 8, 2016 Share July 8, 2016 (edited) 1 hour ago, Curio said: The spoilers for Season 6 have been incredibly vague. Are they purposely not trying to spill the beans about the plot this year because they want to keep it a surprise, or is the story so meandering and open-ended that it's hard to pinpoint exactly what they want to spoil? This is a clear case of "We have no idea, stop asking questions that are not about Regina and about how cool is the Evil Queen". Edited July 8, 2016 by RadioGirl27 6 Link to comment

Lii July 8, 2016 Share July 8, 2016 They're just pissy that everyone is asking about the stuff that is actually intriguing to ask about, i.e. untold stories, Hyde, Belle Box, and no one is asking about the stuff that THEY thought everyone would be all about, i.e. speshulest snowflake Evil Queen twins. Possibly Twitter was not the best sounding board for fan interest after all, guys. Shock and awe. 9 Link to comment
Shanna Marie July 8, 2016 Share July 8, 2016 1 hour ago, KingOfHearts said: “It’s time to tell new stories, broaden the show and move forward.” That sounds oddly like something a new showrunner brought in to take over the show and try to right a sinking ship would say, not like someone who's been in charge all along would say. They have this weird way of talking in interviews that makes it sound like they're not at all responsible for what happens on the show. There were these stories suggested in season one, and they haven't been told yet, so it's time to tell them now. We need to broaden our horizons and tell new stories (as though they haven't already brought in not only fairy tales, but 19th century science fiction in Frankenstein, 19th century children's stories with Wonderland characters, early 20th century British fiction with the Pan-related characters, 20th century American fiction with the Oz characters, and 21st century Disney/Pixar creations with Frozen and Merida). It's the way they talk about the future of the show -- parts that have actually already been written but that haven't aired -- in terms of "we'd be disappointed/surprised if that didn't happen." Hmm, maybe the writing elves do write this show and they have no control over it. My translation is that it's going to be more of the same, but drawing on stories they haven't used before, only without an overriding theme for the arc. How many of these stories will they burn through in one season by just namedropping characters without really delving into their stories? 2 Link to comment

They want their idea to sound deep instead of being straightforward about it. Typical Eddy. 1 Link to comment

maryle July 10, 2016 Share July 10, 2016 (edited) I have the feeling they really want to gave a season 1 feeling and be more ensemble in the tiny bit new thing they tease and that Emma's as savior have not been forgot like I was afread. ( the savior titre for the first episode and the Emma and co. have to help Untold citizen ...) That does give hope for this season. All the EQ stuff seem more post final or use as an example. She will have a big role but she always does. Funny they seems to realize that the double EQ was not their big attention gimmick they thought. So, if CS, the Charming Clan and Yes even Rumbelle can have a real intetesting storyline where the Untold story is use organically. I will be a happy camper, I am not that hard to please.

scenicbyway July 10, 2016 Share July 10, 2016 I'm fairly wary of the this whole new season. Once again, the focus is on Regina, I suppose coming to terms that she is both the evil queen and reformed Regina. I feel like that's a small part of Emma's story though. Yes, it was Regina's curse that forever altered Emma's life, but we've seen reformed Regina for 2 seasons now, do we need yet another reminder and set of flashbacks every episode to the Evil Queen vs. Snow years? Last season was a real disappointment because there was so much build up with Emma and Hook and Darks Ones and then she literally went to hell for him and the pay off was he randomly got sent back by Zeus and a few kisses in the cemetery? The title "The Savior" isn't giving me any hope either, the "Savior" this time will probably turn out to be Regina. I did like the filming pics though, I guess at least we know some of who's in the first episode. 1 Link to comment
Serena July 10, 2016 Share July 10, 2016 The problem with this story, IMO, is not that it's a Regina story (even though I don't enjoy her stories). It's that, once again like in season 4, Regina is gonna spend a whole season dealing with a "problem" that could be resolved if she got therapy and grew the hell up already. In S4, it was the stupid author/happy ending stuff, and she had to realize she needs to take charge of her own happy ending or whatever. Cool, but if you had realized it 20 episodes ago, all the fuckery with the author that brought so much maymen wouldn't have happened. And this season, Regina needs to realize that she's both Regina and the EQ, and once again her seeking magic solution for her mental problems brought a magical threat to town. Can we not? 11 Link to comment

It looks like it, but at the same time, it's because she posted a couple of pictures yesterday, and they are filming on location today. We don't know anything about Emma, Hook, Snowing other than that they filmed on Thursday, and we would know absolutely nothing about Rumple and Belle if the Leaf Lady hadn't posted about Bobby and Emilie being in studio on Friday. Tomorrow it's Steveston where I'm assuming most of the cast will be. Honestly, I'm more annoyed that 4 days into filming, Lana is still wearing the same clothes she was when Regina got back from NYC. I get that the characters got back from NYC the following day, but annoyed as fuck that they decided to dump them into this new mess right away. What? No showers? No clothes change after a 7 hour car trip, and spending 2 days in the same clothes? Little details like these make me angry. 2 Link to comment

I tend to dislike A&E's episodes anyways, so I don't have high expectations for this premiere. I'm going to be the Debbie Downer of the group and call that "The Savior" ends up being Regina, since A&E episodes tend to be Regina-centrics. 2 Link to comment

Rumsy4 July 13, 2016 Share July 13, 2016 Jekyll seems rather too ... tame to hold Regina's interest. I think the Jekyll/Hyde arc may end with Hyde being redeemed and subsuming Jekyll within himself.

YaddaYadda July 13, 2016 Share July 13, 2016 I don't see them giving Regina another love interest. If they do, where would that person fall? Daniel was called her true love (although I'm more inclined to see him as her first love instead), Robin was called her soulmate. So there seems to be a lot more happening on set with everyone else showing up. Seems Hyde gets tossed in the squad car by David and Hook, and Emma may or may not have done something she wasn't supposed to. Link to comment

They'll be ready for a curse breaking kiss in no time. Also, how exciting that Regina & Snow seem to be having yet another heart to heart. Why can't she have a chat with Granny or something and mix it up. I feel like a Granny/Regina conversation/pep talk has the potential to be seriously awesome.

Emma looks to be aiming something at him, so maybe she incapacitates him, and it still takes 2 people to cuff him and put him in the squad car.
