The Author needs to stick to one side and stop playing everybody like this. God, I'm so excited for this AU episode!

ReplyDeleteThis seems so major. Can't wait for shit to break down.
ReplyDeleteThey need to release a bunch of promos, sneak peeks and stuff! I won't be able to go through this till Sunday
Looking forward to this.
ReplyDeleteAuthor dies and maybe Henry become the owner of the book entirely imo
I look forward to the flipped version - because i want to see how Emma is and how Hook is especially... in any version of time - these two will meet,
Ginny looks good as Snow Black ;)
"Guest stars TBA"
ReplyDeleteOk now I'm excited for returning characters!
Shocking twist? Please don't make Emma the dark one. . . please don't make Emma the dark one . . . If I keep repeating it, do you think it will work? Lol!
ReplyDeleteHenry going to save his family so cool.
ReplyDeleteI really feel like Henry will encounter Hook and ask for his help and to find Emma.... (most ppl have done that ask him to do things - Ariel, and then Ursula)
I really would like to know who will Hook be after the role reversal?Anyone?
ReplyDeleteI feel like Emma will become the dark one by it being forced on her when she does an heroic act because thats Emma, Emma choosing to do that and the darkness is forced on her and also...
ReplyDeleteI think he is gonna be the Pirate we met in Season 2. Because if this is Rumple's version - then he is gonna have Hook the same as before, the endless darkness and suffering Hook encountered for centuries and also trying to keep him away from his happy ending - Emma.
ReplyDeleteI think this should be Henry's story, his chance to be the hero and save his family. We know from pictures that Isaac (the author) ends up in FTL too so maybe Henry has convinced him to try and change the story back, but other than that I'd really want Henry to be the hero here.
ReplyDeleteI am so ready! 6 more days!
ReplyDeleteWell Henry is still the main hero in terms of saving his whole family and probably taking on tbhe author seeing as the book is vital to Henry and maybe ends up being the owner of it. I am guessing the Author will die or something
ReplyDeleteSo Henry finally gets to be the hero this time!
ReplyDeleteBut still the finale already...Feels like the show just came back...
I am really excited to see Snow as the Evil Queen!
ReplyDeleteI am not a fan of alternate universe stories. At this point, I'm just hoping that the show ends up somewhere interesting at the end of the finale.
ReplyDeleteI hope that alternate reality mess resolves at the begginig of the second hour and the story ends with something related to Rumple's heart dying.
ReplyDeleteNo clue. As Rumple dislikes him he probably will be Blackbeard bi*ch, cleaning boats or something.
ReplyDeleteI still don't understand why they're in the Enchanted Forest. Is that some kind of flashback or they'll go there? Or they're showing Isaac's new version? How would that affect Storybrooke? If Regina wasn't the villain back in the EF, they wouldn't come to our world.
ReplyDeleteIsaac's new version i'd imagine. How it will effect Storybrooke I have no Idea but you have to remember this isn't time travel so the Author could re-create the Enchanted Forest without erasing Storybrooke, all he has to do is write it that way.
ReplyDeleteTechnically not an AU story though, just the current universe being re-written, which means any re-written element could end up being permanent if they kill the author and the new one refuses to alter things as the previous one did.
ReplyDeleteThat would be fine with me. To me, most alternate universe stories are just self-indulgent time-filler. Fringe being the main exception. Small doses are fine and can be fun (like how The Flash did it back in March) but extended AU plots are a no-go for me. So, your suggestion would be a best case scenario for me.
ReplyDeleteGinny's hair looks great lol
ReplyDeleteNope still think he is going to be Captain Hook with his own Ship.
ReplyDeleteWe have a standard universe the characters operate from. That universe is being completely altered into something different, making it an alternate universe. It's an alternate universe story. Any plot that takes place outside the generally accepted reality of the series is a plot that operates in an alternate universe.
ReplyDeleteHer being the dark one would be lazy writing to make her go dark in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteIts interesting that IF Emma does become the dark one by force - thats its such a epic kind of thing in terms of Emma and Hook together and individually - read this 'Killian's character arc before meeting Emma was trying to kill the Dark One because he murdered his love. Now he will have to save the Dark One because she is his love. That, my friends, is one poetic parallel' - http://qqueenofhades.tumblr.com/post/117532250329/the-sensible-fans-guide-to-ouat-4x19
ReplyDeleteAlternate universes generally exist as well as the one we are used to, that's not the case here, the one we are used to is just being changed, it still exists in the universe we've been seeing up to now and the characters are still the same, making it the same universe. It's no different to casting a curse like shattered sight to change people or bringing magic to change a condition in the universe.
ReplyDeleteI really hope they won't push it to far with this story and resolve it within the 2 hours like the time travelling last year.
ReplyDeleteI'm just curious what type of consequences this will have to the overall storyline.
Also i feel he is gonna be Pirate Hook.
ReplyDeleteAnd he was also never cursed like all of them
Not if its by force. And esp to save the town and ppl.
ReplyDeleteI am all for this. No doubt Hook will find her in any version or realm it seems. And this show has drilled it into us, if you love them.... you find them,
ReplyDeleteAnd Emma is his happy ending. And Henry is going to play a big part in this whole thing.
Dearie, dearie, dearie.... "If Regina wasn't the villain back in the EF, they wouldn't come to our world."
ReplyDeleteSnow White will be the villain so they would end up in our world.
Do you think everyone will end up back in the enchasnted forest and have Storybrooke never existed?
ReplyDeleteI think everyone will end up back in EF, the Author could keep Storybrooke if he wanted to though, it would be a useful place to use as a prison although that probably won't happen.
ReplyDeleteAre Maleficent and Lily in the finale?
ReplyDeleteseems like he was always Gold's side after that.
ReplyDeleteSeems like we are getting Evil Charming in Snowing lol
ReplyDeleteExcited for Henry to be the hero of this story and save his family. I kinda do think that he will encounter Hook and get him to help and go off to find Emma atleast.
I think Hook will be presented as Bad Boy Hook (not that he was much of a evil villain even with when dark hook was around and wanting revenge) - the pirate with his code of honor navy code (that is what i think)
Emma and Hook are bound to meet in any version of the story and drawn towards each other
ReplyDeletelily is going to be. she only booked 3 episodes
ReplyDeleteIt's an alternate universe. It's a very broad TV trope.
ReplyDeletehttp://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AlternateUniverse
Blackbeard Bi*ch.LOL!
ReplyDeleteEPIC Now I won't rest untill I know for sure my Rumple is in S5. I need also more SQ & Rumbelle & CapSwan
ReplyDeleteTrue love prevails!
ReplyDeleteYour link just proves it isn't :P
ReplyDeleteYes for more Capswan!
ReplyDeleteJust the opposite. It proves that this situation is just one of many types of alternate universe themes and the one you posit is far from the only form of alternate universe. This falls under the Elseworld category.
ReplyDeleteTell us the guests! :'(
ReplyDeleteOnly for this season. The writers confirmed that she will be staying for next season.
ReplyDelete:) I ship all 3 as romance. Hope that's ok. I'll die with no Rumple.
ReplyDeleteOf course it's ok.We all have our individual preferences & i respect that fully.
ReplyDeleteBut U triggerred my curiosity, no one mentions Hook so the twist around him has to be quite funny. ^_^
ReplyDeleteBut by that logic the show has done alternate universes several times, why are you not a fan of this one?
ReplyDeleteI guess he is very pragmatic. He wants to write and Mr. Gold gives him the chance to do so. If Regina allowed him to write Zelena out of history he would have do this with pleasure.
ReplyDeleteI thought of that, but that would mean that every villain would to the same. Regina and Snow are way too different, it's a bit difficult to believe that they would do the same to destroy their enemy's happiness. Although, it's a good theory. And, how on earth you do bold words? I tried but when I post the comment, the text is normal.
ReplyDeleteUse and insert "/" betwenn "<" and "b>" at the end of bolding.
ReplyDeleteBolding words without
Bolding words with
As Example:

Bolding words with
Now that we're learning ... How do you insert gifs here ... Doesn't work for me :-)
ReplyDeleteI am potentially not a fan of this one. Obviously I can't make a final judgement until I see the episode for myself but my unsatisfactory history with the trope across many TV shows tells me chances are I'm not going to enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteOk i the only thing that i want from the finale is to see the Wizard!
ReplyDeleteImagine... "Sebastian Stan as Jefferson/Mad Hatter, Jamie Dornan as sheriff Graham/Huntsman, Meghan Ory as Red/Ruby and Michael Raymond-James as Baelfire/Neal Cassidy"
ReplyDeleteHeart attack of fans guaranteed.
"Guest stars TBA"

where?
ReplyDeleteThanks.
ReplyDeleteI used to write something, select the text and clikc Ctrl + B.
Done it. Notthing happened.
ReplyDeleteIn the newest EW interview I think. There was a question about Emma and Lily (whether their light and darkness can be fixed or whatever) and they said it will be adressed next season.
ReplyDeleteSorry for offtopic.
ReplyDeleteMam pytanie związane ogólnie z OUaT, a Ty wydajesz się dużo wiedzieć na ten temat, więc może będziesz mi w stanie wyjaśnić coś co mnie męczy. Jakim cudem Snow White miała czyste serce dopóki nie zabiła Cory, jeśli zabrała dziecko Diaboliny? Czy jest to błąd scenarzystów czy da się to jakoś wyjaśnić. Bo zabranie matce dziecka dla osiągnięcia własnej korzyści jest de facto złe. Co o tym sądzisz?
POLAK NA SPOILER.TV?
ReplyDeletehttp://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nuhpHcH6884/UKZT71usu1I/AAAAAAAAKz8/fg2reLuN5s0/s1600/Excited_peeta_gif.gif
*po uspokojeniu się*
Najprościej? Błąd scenarzystów.
Logika nigdy nie była mocną stroną tego serialu, więc czemu Ty się dziwisz?
Oczywistym przykładem jest
Ingrid. Do dzisiaj nie wyjaśniono dlaczego się nie zestarzała przez 19
lat od wejścia do naszego świata w 1982 roku do przekroczenia granicy
Storybrooke w 2001 roku. Przy Cruelli i Urszuli to chociaż wyjaśniono.
Parafrazując napis widniejący u wejścia
do piekła według „Boskiej komedii” Dantego, "porzućcie wszelką logikę
Ci, którzy zagłębią się w ten serial."
Polka ;P
ReplyDeleteTak myślałam, że to błąd. Przeszkadza mi to na tyle, że nie jestem w stanie oglądać dalej. Ingrid mi nie przeszkadzała, bo była tylko pół sezonu, więc o takim błędzie można zapomnieć. A Snow White się tak szybko nie pozbędą ;(
Może przez wakację porzucę wszelką logikę i obejrzę sezon 4 do końca.
Do you think Rumple can return or will he be dead? No magic Rumpy is fine to me. Always my love forever. I'd like him to get light magic but I doubt
ReplyDeleteZ drugiej strony, na siłę mozna to wyjaśnić:
ReplyDelete■ porwanie, to nie zabójstwo.
■ Nie zrobili tego z własnej woli, lecz Autor im tak kazał.
■ no i kończąc, Śnieżka obiecała oddać dziecko Maleficent. Nie miała pojęcia, że uczeń ZOSTANIE ZMUSZONY przez Autora do wysłania jaja ku "krainie Pozbawionej Magii".
Ale zaznaczam, to raczej wyjaśnienie na siłę.
Nie kupuję tego wyjaśnienia na siłę, ale może uda mi się do niego przekonać na tyle, żeby nadrobić odcinki przed finałem. W ogóle to dziękuję za odpowiedź.
ReplyDeleteSpoko. ZAWSZE służę pomocą. W razie czeko, "Michu1945" także na wikipedii, najczęściej na "dawno, dawno temu".
ReplyDeleteI would like to see Rumple but i hate Gold too much.Very weird situation for me!
ReplyDeleteWe just want Rumbelle back.
ReplyDeleteHenry will become the author himself
ReplyDeleteThis should be utter nonsense and summed up "We make our own happy endings" which begs the question why waste a season creating a character if only to point out his utter irrelevance to the story? I am pretty sure that is the conclusion Regina came to, the same conclusion young Emma came to when she told young Lillith to make better decisions in life but it will be funny to watch this pair spend two hours having the cast chase each other to come to the same conclusion. Enjoy
ReplyDeleteGreat, so Henry plays a big role in the finale…yawn. Expect terrible acting and more of his annoying claims.
ReplyDeleteTHE DARK ONE!!!
ReplyDeleteHook might be The Dark One.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the finale. Never would have thought The Author would turn out to be the true villain of the season
ReplyDeleteif true: Rumple will be dead, but not the Dark One, this he said to Regina when she asked, what's wrong with him.
ReplyDeleteI always have hope in the "chipped cup", Horowitz teased a few weeks ago.
But again: I would not love to live in Storybrooke, if Rumplestiltskin would be dead, but the Dark One not... the Dark One always had the heart (and love) from Rumple in itself, if the heart will only be black, poor people around him....unimaginable, what he could do as Gold/Rumple, and then as Dark One
That's what I'm saying.
ReplyDeletefor all which like/love Rumple/Gold as I do... my minds: he might have to write a new history as a king, with money, castle etc. but no: he only wants to be a hero which can protect people and not be a coward he always is/was. And he lives with Belle not in a castle, he lives in a "simple" cottage (what I suspect according the Promo)
ReplyDeletei don't remember that Cas scene LOL
ReplyDeleteagree LOL
ReplyDeletei really seems like Henry is destined to become the FINAL Author doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteso we'll only see him as The Dark One with no Belle love. Well at least he stays for S5 I hope. If not, he'll stay only in flashbacks & it will suck. I am sooooo sad. :(
ReplyDeleteoh yes, would suck, but I don't hope. I remember that Horowitz teased to Rumbelle'fans about "the chipped cup comes back", so perhaps the curse can be broken and either he will stays as Gold with no magic and in flashbacks as Rumplestiltskin we love, or the love change the magic in good light, as did for Regina. How great would that be?
ReplyDeletenot sure what I should think about as a Rumple/Rumbelle-fan
ReplyDeletehttp://www.etonline.com/tv/163901_once_upon_a_time_romance_rundown_is_true_love_kiss_coming_the_season_finale/
Rumbelle: That must have been the shortest honeymoon in TV history, because Belle (Emile de Ravin) and Rumple (Robert Carlyle) fans have had a heartbreaking season when it comes to their fairytale twosome. For those who are tired of trying to figure out what's next for Rumbelle, the two showrunners are promising a solution.
"We are going to get some resolution as to where they stand," Horowitz explained. "Rumpelstiltskin and Belle have had a long and winding road and the long and winding road continues, but we love those characters and what they both mean for each other."
Kitsis added, "We're going to get real insight into why Rumple has behaved the way that he has."
feel happy and that means he'll come back because "it continues." :) S5 yes
ReplyDeleteMaybe they'll pull an Eureka and change the show permanently...
ReplyDeleteOkay so by the looks of (many characters stares) it Emma sacrifices herself for something...
ReplyDeleteAlso zero Maleficent/Lily which is funny, since they were the core storyline in this half of the season.
I gave up the hope after this interview
