lightningbeauty, I love your reaction script for "Say your name." I did exactly the same!
The story of Belle was done in an interesting way. She was definitely less "damsel in distress" than, say, Cinderella. Although I thought it was typical that she was an actual princess, it made sense with the story of how she sacrificed herself to Rumpelstiltskin. I hope to see her again in the near or far future. I had been hoping someone else would play the Beast (like a new character? Aren't there other people in the town?) but everything in the episode relating to Rumple was a BIG payoff!
Ruby cracks me up. She looks like a dramatic vampire. I hope there's an episode about her and her grandmother this season.
I'm going to be an absolute girl here and voice an adoration of actor Robert Carlyle in leather pants. The costumes keep getting more phenomenal, among other things. *lole*
I will be rewatching this episode very soon, but fast forwarding through everything related to Mary Margaret or Emma. ^_^
Lol! My husband actually came in to see what was wrong with me. He just doesn't understand the emotion in this show!
I thought the princess thing was a little bit of a "hey, have another princess b/c every girl is a princess in fairy tale world!". But that's why I'm hoping for more Ruby/Red Riding Hood. I definitely think we'll be seeing Belle again though.
I'm going to join you in adoration of Robert Carlyle. Between him and the queen I'm just full of costume-orgasms.
I will be rewatching it too. It's just so pretty. :3
The part at the end with Mr. Gold and Regina was AWESOME. Robert Carlyle is such a brilliant actor. I had SHIVERS. How he did a little smirk, and then said it.
( ... )
I have to agree with the David/Mary Margaret irritation. He got on my nerves last week and downright annoyed me this week. But the promos say that we will get a Katherine/David/Mary Margaret showdown next week. So *fingers crossed*.
The Gaston Rose weirded me out too! (See post.) But no lie, I did giggle a little over the "I am Sir Gaston, and you have taken---" *POOF* That was a little funny. But it made me sad that he was just trying to be the brave hero...just like Belle.
The green screen thing needs to stop. Seriously. Is it so expensive to have a basic castle set that you re-purpose for each fairy tale? I'm sure it is but it's got to be cheaper and better than the CGI.
I only just got round to watching this weeks ep! Been busy not really doing much :p
I really adore what they did with the BatB story. I love that the fairy tales are all intertwining some how :D And a little Chip shout out! XD
I had an audible gasp when he said his name! I was like OMFG SO HE DOES REMEMBER?!?!?! :OOOO I keep seeing a lot of Regina/Queen fangirls which is cool, but I feel like they sympathize with her too much. I definitely love that Mr Gold does quite questionable things and Rumple is seen as evil, but at least he has come from a terrible past and I can be more sympathetic to him. I love him more and more every week. Perhaps in time we might get more about Regina, but even when we thought we were seeing a nicer more gentle side when she met the genie it was all lies
( ... )
I'm seeing a lot of the Regina fans too (at to be quite honest, I'm in LOVE with her). But there there is no doubt in my mind that she is evil evil evil. :D And that's why I love her. I felt so bad for the Genie but it was also just delicious! So calculating and just....love. I really look forward to seeing her backstory with Snow to find how 1) what Snow did to make the Queen angry and 2) What made her turn to the dark side. I feel like we just don't know her reason for evil yet.
With Rumple, we've been given glimpses into it. (Although I sympathize with him so hard!)
I think that mermaid comment will have me antsy until I finally see her onscreen. :)
