Once Upon a Time (ABC) - 1x02 till the bitter end
- Thread starter Temis the Vorta
- Start date
Yeah I'm getting less and less interested in the Storybrooke part of the storyline.
If you are referring to the voice-over at the beginning of some episodes, that also said that only one knows the truth. But as we have seen there are at least two who know it (three if you count Henry).
Great new episode and the confrontation between the Queen and Rumpelstiltskin in the Sheriff's office was the highlight.
So, was the writer guy adding more pages to the book "Once Upon A Time" or creatively editting it? Did he also remove pages?
Also, notice that the boy was playing "Space Paranoids" on his little game controller? This is definately a Disney show. Emma said one of the lines that Flynn says in the first Tron movie, "It's all in the wrists".

Yeah, I loved the Tron easter eggs.
Hard to tell what Booth did to the book. Make a copy? edit it? we'll have to wait and see.
Snow/Charming's relationship flip-flopping has officially jumped the shark for me.
Anyone else think Fredrick looked like a very young Harrison Ford?

I think he was adding pages. It seemed to me that he was soaking them in a tea solution to give them the "aged" look.
I missed seeing Gold this ep. He has become my favorite character.
I suppose David or Mary Margaret will now go on trial for the wife's disappearance?

He would have to do that for practically anything he did, whether making a copy, editing, or adding.
I had the feeling he was rewriting it. The questions, though, are in what way and why?
That was quite an overreaction that Mary Margaret got from the townsfolk. Given that the Mayor spray painted her car, I wonder how much of the rest was orchestrated by her, too.

You'd want those keys to be stuck up the Storybrookians nostrils to rewrite their memories?
Maybe he was dipping the pages into the magical well water.
I think he was adding Frederick's story to the book. It seemed that those pages/story had never been referenced before. Before the last ep we never had any inkling that fairyland Catherine was anything more than a simpering impediment to Snow and Charming.
I don't think it was a copy. August seems far too sure of himself and the location. He may have made a copy for further editing, but why? Is he a power that the Queen and Rumple are unaware of?
The Queen knows because she enacted the curse. Rumple knows because it was his curse. Thus far we have no explanation of why August knows or how much he knows. Of the characters only Rumple and the Queen have remained "magical." Why can August seemingly change the course of the story?
Maybe Emma is not the one to lift the curse after all?

Yeah, now I'm spoiled, I want Gold vs Queenie every week.
I really didn't buy Snow's 180 because Charming didn't tell his wife the full truth - if he had, would the townspeople have been less judgmental? I doubt it. The writers had her break up with Charming because they needed to extend the angst, not because it made any damn sense at all. She came off as a flake. Oh thanks for leaving your wife, now I'm breaking up with you because you didn't do it exactly like I wanted. Jesus.
Charming should run like hell from a control-freak like that. It's obvious that he's a bit of a chicken and it took a lot for him to break up with his wife at all, nevermind that he didn't do it perfectly. If he sticks with her, she'll spend the rest of her life nitpicking everything he does. A more sensitive and understanding person would have recognized that he didn't have it in him to "do it right," and not blame him just because they're stuck in a town of judgmental snoops.
I expected Eion Bailey to turn out to be Frederick, just because this show is getting pretty crowded as it is.
PS, ratings steady from last week.
Yeah, the Mary Margaret/David stuff was kind of annoying this week. I've always found this kind of back and forth, will they won't they stuff annoying, and this storyline has been nothing but that stuff.
I'm definitely curious what Book was doing with the book though, it looked to me like he was adding pages. But what I want to know is doing that has any kind of effect on the real world. Did the real world Frederik show up because his story was just now recorded in the book?

I'm a week behind (Planned on watching both episodes last night, but, right when I got to Frederick the Gold Statue I had to deal with a Leaky Water heater, so only got through the Beauty and the Beast Episode)
Loved the Beauty and the Beast episode, I don't know if it's because I have become so attached to the show, or because the performances were so strong, but, I gotta say this was the saddest/best rendition of Beauty and the Beast I've seen. Regina/The Queen is really, really wicked, and as the Mayor or the Queen, she loves turning the knife, even more than giving the initial pain.
Glad to see Belle in Storybrooke at the end, and the Regina/Mr. Gold showdown was awesome

I've not chimed into this thread yet, and overall I'm loving this show, but...
Maybe it was her accent or maybe I just don't like Emilie de Raven (and haven't since Roswell), but her Belle left me pretty cold. She's pretty and the dialogue was fine/good and Rumple as the Beast was good and everything else about the episode was great (especially every scene between Regina/the Queen and Gold/Rumple), but Belle? Meh. I'm sure the accent was part of it though. Still, if she's going to become a major player I'm not going to be enjoying it. Sorry, give me Disney's Belle.
Still - overall, the show is great! (Though they could tone down the Mary Margaret/David angst, yeah)

A minor nitpick for sure, but one thing that I've found I don't care for is the dialogue used in the fantasy portions of each episode. It seems cliched and stilted, but then again it is a fantasy world. Compared to the "real world's" more modern speech habits, it could seem stilted. But still..... meh, no big deal.
