yeah, but the spell was to take Zelena back in time and then she would kill Snow's mother or whatever else she wanted to do - she had to do sth in the past to change history, not just cast the spell
By the look of it...Emma falls into the portal, and Hook follows...and then they go into an alternate universe or something. I doubt that scene of Emma falling into the portal is at the end...most likely it's at the beginning.
At least they acknowledge that they change worlds like a girl changes her outfit. Damnit: FTL, Neverland, Oz, real world... what other world is there? A twilight zone alternate reality :P ? Seriously, where the heck are they going next? I think it is the past, because I can't recall another world.
new york and story brook are one world, so is past and current enchanted forrest, leaves Oz, Neverland and Wonderland. But since Hook was pretty much part of this series since the beginning you shouldn't really be surprised when Neverland came up. I can't recall any more other magical worlds myself, but I am sure they are cultures with more 'worlds' for OUAT to explore.
Btw, Emma going back in time is exactly what I thought would happen when we learned that Zelena wanted to go back in time. It's nice to be right ;)
Yeah, I know that Storybrooke and NY "are one world", that's what I meant by "real world". Neverland wasn't a surprise, but so many worlds in one single season seems too much for me. They bring in new characters and storylines (as Glinda and Dorothy) just for the sake of twists and turns and name-checking and don't develop neither the new characters nor some of the old ones.
Have we seen the final battle Rumple predicted in the pilot?
I mean, there were some battles, some really good fights btw good vs evil. My fav being the Pan plot. But for me, final is final, which would mean going back home to the happy endings. So, in my opinion, when Emma falls in that portal, maybe she goes back to the past, and that's when it begins. Perhaps, whatever she does in the past is actually what made all the story possible, maybe she has something to do with the book.
What is this, i dont get this D: she falls and go to the past? but that si not the part of the past Zelena wanted to go, this is where The Evil Queen wants Snow dead, what can possibly Zelena do there? try to kill Snow white to never have Emma? cant wait for next sunday, season finale week is here!
They can still revisit these characters, but you are right, there are already enough characters to deepen their stories, no need to bring in so much more!
As for one big bad (per season), don't necessarily agree with you, think It's working great for this season. Also, a lot of shows have that 'system', I rather watch a show that tries to stand out then one that just follows the script that always works.
Good Episode My theory is that Emma and Hook get stuck in past enchanted forest where they mess up the time line and have to put everything right or Emma and Henry won't be born
If Neal could come back, everybody who died in Storybrooke would be in the same situation, which does not make sense. So, sorry, I think he's done for good.
And the saga of the one gazillion portals continues. Even though the story began because THE ONE AND ONLY way for Rumple to get to our world was through the curse. Oh, plot continuity, why bother?
Honestly, I think that right now none of it makes sense. First of: do you have to fall into the portal for the curse to work? Secondly:If you do, will you be aware of what is going on (meaning, if you cast the curse, do you remember the "original" timeline)? And most importantly, if Emma is the one who falls into the portal/whatever the hell that is, will she go back in time to when Snow and Charming met, a time when she herself did not exist?
OMG this is going to be so much fun ! After Rumple killed Zelena it somehow activated the spell and changed the past in an unexpected and unforeseen way ! I think what we see in the beginning of this promo is just a foretaste of what is going to happen in Season 4 : Emma with Hook as is true love, Rumple is teaching an unknownperson to cast the curse and the fight between the evil Queen and Snow/Charming may be different in this alternate reality I can't wait !! :)
I am afraid that the alt-reality season, if they do that, will ruin the development we have seen this season. It basically makes all that has happened up to this point pointless.
I'm not excited. I hope I am proven wrong, but I think this might be the jump the shark moment for the show. If they go ahead and change everything just to change everything, instead of continuing where the story has come to, it makes everything we have seen meaningless.
For awhile, I thought they were planting seeds to have a season in Oz next year, with Regina becoming the fourth witch, allowing them to bring in a lot more Oz elements from the books as she works her way to save Oz.
Although it would be expensive, I think what they need to do next season is have an episode where some spell turns people into animal form, and have the story loosely based upon Disney's Robin Hood. We can add more Disney characters, as well (Mickey, Donald, Goofy), and give them human form afterwards....
I really like this idea!!! Emma is finally going to understand where her family has come from, and where she's from! I don't see it as backtracking. It opens so many avenues for character development
Zelena wanted to go back in time to the year her life changed, and when Emma falls on the portal she will go back in time when Charming and Snow met , that's brilliant!! If Charming didn't chose that road Snow wouldn't steal his ring and i think Emma will see all that! I think she and Hook will do things that could change the past and the 4th season will be about them trying to fix it and go back to Storybrooke or just back in time! I think Snow will see Emma for a short time and that's would be why Mary Margaret felt she already know her when they both met OR maybe they will become friends and them she will drink a forgetting potion to erase all! All that time between getting Charming's ring back and his (almoust)-wedding with Abigail ,Snow could be helping Emma !!!!! I WANT THAT!!!!
Alt-reality!! Yes please! I was starting to get a little bored to be honest... it's always the same dynamics lately... Big baddie almost wins, but no wait, our heroes save the day wWithout long term repercussions (obviously)... I could use a change of scenery...

I have no clue what is going to happen, but I am excited!
ReplyDeleteThis looks really good!!! Can't wait 'til next week!!!!
ReplyDeleteExcite! So Emma falls in the portal to the past, yes?
ReplyDeleteSo...alternative reality anyone?
ReplyDeleteawesome, awesome, awesome, is it next Sunday already.
ReplyDeleteIt looks intense. But if there is no Zelena to change the past, why things would go a different way?
ReplyDeletemaybe the spell worked after all but in a wrong way
ReplyDeleteKillian hits himself? that's cool :D I wonder if he's stealing the Jolly Roger from himself
ReplyDeleteyeah, but the spell was to take Zelena back in time and then she would kill Snow's mother or whatever else she wanted to do - she had to do sth in the past to change history, not just cast the spell
ReplyDeleteAnd Hook was with her when they saw the portal so I'm guessing Hook goes in after Emma falls in..
ReplyDeleteyou are right, we will have to wait til next sunday to find out what is happening :)
ReplyDeleteEnough with falling down portals!!
ReplyDeleteOh man. I can't wait to see how OUAT screws up time travel.
ReplyDeletecharmeing dreamt about emma falling in a portal ,
ReplyDeleteDoes this mean Neal can come back?! I'm so sick of puppy dog eyes Hook riding Emma's coat tails, I miss Neal.
ReplyDeleteI would love for this to happen, but alas, I'm pretty sure Neal isn't coming back :(
ReplyDeleteIT IS NEXT SUNDAY ALREADY?!
ReplyDeleteSeason finale already? This season has gone by so fast...
ReplyDeleteBy the look of it...Emma falls into the portal, and Hook follows...and then they go into an alternate universe or something. I doubt that scene of Emma falling into the portal is at the end...most likely it's at the beginning.
ReplyDeleteThey are going back in time, by the time her parents met!
ReplyDeleteAt least they acknowledge that they change worlds like a girl changes her outfit. Damnit: FTL, Neverland, Oz, real world... what other world is there? A twilight zone alternate reality :P ?
ReplyDeleteSeriously, where the heck are they going next? I think it is the past, because I can't recall another world.

Btw, Emma going back in time is exactly what I thought would happen when we learned that Zelena wanted to go back in time. It's nice to be right ;)
It makes sense based on the scenes of the promo, but this whole jumping around is getting old.
ReplyDeleteTHis is so sad!! THey are going to sepearate Emma and her parents again! Agh!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I know that Storybrooke and NY "are one world", that's what I meant by "real world".
ReplyDeleteNeverland wasn't a surprise, but so many worlds in one single season seems too much for me.

ReplyDeletecant wait for next sunday, season finale week is here!
I'm still confused on how the heck that portal opened back up, but anyways I can't wait for the next episode!!
ReplyDeleteThey can still revisit these characters, but you are right, there are already enough characters to deepen their stories, no need to bring in so much more!

thanks!
Good Episode My theory is that Emma and Hook get stuck in past enchanted forest where they mess up the time line and have to put everything right or Emma and Henry won't be born
ReplyDeleteI feel a back to the future vibe to the whole concept.
ReplyDeleteThis promo looks straight out of fan fiction! And I love it! :)
ReplyDeleteIf Neal could come back, everybody who died in Storybrooke would be in the same situation, which does not make sense. So, sorry, I think he's done for good.
ReplyDeleteAnd the saga of the one gazillion portals continues. Even though the story began because THE ONE AND ONLY way for Rumple to get to our world was through the curse. Oh, plot continuity, why bother?
ReplyDeleteCouldn't have said it better myself. I will try to keep track of just how much stuff they're gonna get wrong, 'cause it will be A LOT.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I think that right now none of it makes sense. First of: do you have to fall into the portal for the curse to work? Secondly:If you do, will you be aware of what is going on (meaning, if you cast the curse, do you remember the "original" timeline)? And most importantly, if Emma is the one who falls into the portal/whatever the hell that is, will she go back in time to when Snow and Charming met, a time when she herself did not exist?
ReplyDeleteSaw a comment on tumblr and is Emma pregnant?, at the very first when they turn around, it may be the way the dress puffs out but...
ReplyDeleteHahaha, the portal jumping reminds me of that old show "Sliders."
ReplyDeleteI am so confused. But it looks awesome! I'm really excited!
ReplyDeletehttp://oi59.tinypic.com/5vdcmc.jpg
ReplyDeleteThey can always reference this later and say there are so many worlds we can still visit and discover.
So much is going on, but I'm so excited! 2 hours worth of Once Upon a Time, count me in!
ReplyDeleteIsn't the girl in the red dress from OUAT in Wonderland?
ReplyDeleteOMG this is going to be so much fun ! After Rumple killed Zelena it somehow activated the spell and changed the past in an unexpected and unforeseen way ! I think what we see in the beginning of this promo is just a foretaste of what is going to happen in Season 4 : Emma with Hook as is true love, Rumple is teaching an unknownperson to cast the curse and the fight between the evil Queen and Snow/Charming may be different in this alternate reality I can't wait !! :)
ReplyDeleteso unexpected.. love the show.
ReplyDeleteI fear this show might be jumping the portal with this one. I was upset with Rumple, "I have to keep my word" when his word to Belle was not kept!
ReplyDeleteI am afraid that the alt-reality season, if they do that, will ruin the development we have seen this season. It basically makes all that has happened up to this point pointless.

ReplyDeleteI've been hoping for that ever since Zelena appeared.
ReplyDeleteRight? They take so little care with plot that there is no way they're going to follow logic or anything.
ReplyDeleteSo Emma may meet the Evil Queen, ooooooooooooooohh god I've wanted this since forever
ReplyDeleteI'm excited to see 2 Killian's on my screen at the same time!
ReplyDeleteAhhh!!!! If Emma wrote the book that would be the COOLEST THING EVER
ReplyDeleteI really like this idea!!! Emma is finally going to understand where her family has come from, and where she's from! I don't see it as backtracking. It opens so many avenues for character development
ReplyDeleteAnd I wonder what more we'll find out about Snow and Charming meeting! Why else would the show those scenes... mhhhhh
ReplyDeleteAll I want is for Emma to get her magic back after she lost it in such a silly way.
ReplyDeleteZelena wanted to go back in time to the year her life changed, and when Emma falls on the portal she will go back in time when Charming and Snow met , that's brilliant!! If Charming didn't chose that road Snow wouldn't steal his ring and i think Emma will see all that!

ReplyDeleteWe have Narnia
ReplyDeleteI really, really, really don't want them to touch Narnia. Thankfully, I don't think they have the rights!
ReplyDeleteI hope going back in time and seeing where her family comes from knocks some sense into emma
ReplyDeleteLooks amazing! Have you notised the scene where Hook punched Hook? :)))
ReplyDelete
