ABC's Once Upon a Time - Part 4

[Donut]

As long as Regina dies I'm good with any idea

Triton also came to his senses in the end. Milos is just really nuts. But hey if Triton got to kill Regina. All of us in here would be all for it. Just to get rid of Milos

id agree with that

[PyroChamber]

Why do I get this strange feeling that Milos = JabarR

 

[Milos]

Friendly reminder that Hooks and Neal asses were saved last episode thanks to Reginas lessons!

 

[DarkSovereignty]

And It's damn shame too

Big spoiler for the mid-season finale in a couple weeks:

Spoiler

The title of the episode is called "Going Home." Apparently someone was on set and there was a scene being filmed of Grumpy running down the middle of town yelling "The curse is coming!" There was also a scene of Regina saying goodbye to Emma.

Apparently the new curse that's coming is that it's sending everyone in Storybrooke (minus Neal, Emma, and Henry and maybe Hook) back to The Enchanted Forest.

That's only mid-season? Sounds more like a season finale.

 

[Primal Slayer]

They consider that a curse? They should be celebrating.

 

[SuperT]

I can see how it works as just a mid-season finale.

I'm guessing the big running arc for the second half of the season is [BLACKOUT]Emma, Neal and Henry finding a way back to the Enchanted Forest or them questioning whether or not they even want to go[/BLACKOUT].

Well I could see how some of them would like it and some of them wouldn't. [BLACKOUT]A lot their lives were better off in Storybrooke than the fairytale realm.[/BLACKOUT]

 

[Primal Slayer]

Im wondering if this is going to bring full blown magic back to that area.

And if Maleficent comes back again, they better give her a make over cause she looks like cheap cosplay now compared to Angelina.

 

[Trimmings]

Maybe it's the same curse, just being reversed?

[BLACKOUT]Regina reversing it could be her trying to fix the worst thing she's done. Depending on the consequences, it might even redeem her enough for Robin Hood. It just so happens that he's where they'll end up.[/BLACKOUT]

that sounds more like something a series finale should do with... i find it kinda mind numbing that each season is going to be about reuniting family and trying to rescue people from other worlds, or traveling to or from them to save a family member... feels a bit too soon for this

 

[Primal Slayer]

I think it would be fine to do now, my only concern is if it actually goes through, I don't know how much I can take of them being in a forest every episode. They need to try to create some actual FTL sets. I mean this show already broke the curse in the first season which was a BIG thing to do. And hopefully if this goes through, if everyone goes back I hope Regina/Rumple find out that they aren't the biggest dogs in the yard anymore.

 

[Milos]

Can't wait to see Regina in all her Queen glory again!

Annnd I can now consider myself spoiled...thanks. Spoiler tags people.

Nothing set in stone, more speculation at this point.

I'm sorry, but I'm getting kind of sick of people harping on this ****. Yes, sometimes the backgrounds aren't great, but the CG creatures on this show are solid. Jiminy looked great, Maleficent looked fine in dragon form (less so in her reanimated form last season), the White Rabbit/Cheshire Cat (in some shots)/Caterpillar all look fine on OUAT in Wonderland, the fairies look damn good...

Honestly, I think we've just been spoiled ****ing rotten by special effects advancements over the past several years. Sorry this show that shoots 22 episodes a year can't match a film that produces 2 hours over the course of several months.

 

[JP]

Agreed...

I agree that too much has been made of the CGI on this show and the supposed '****iness' (pardon the expression) thereof. The way the CGI has been rendered, IMO, gives the show a unique charm that fits the general conceit of its basic concept and premise. If you want 'realistic' CGI, go watch something else, because the CGI in this show isn't meant to be 'realistic'; it's meant to convey a certain aesthetic, which it does.

I agree but I also agree with them that the show relies to much on cgi instead of trying to create things themselves.

Agreed. The CGI has never really bugged me but I really wish they would use more practical effects or build sets when they do their interior shots in castles, town squares, etc.

Those always looked way worse to me.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

The only horrid cgi this show has had imo was this season... Rumple in town square and rumples castle interior. All else has been fine

 

[Teelie]

Seems to be complaining about CG for the sake of complaining about CG. If nothing else it's just someone who had to phone in a quick blog entry and decided to nag about special effects because it's easy and lazy to do.
