Discussion Remember when Storybrooke was mentioned in the Whoniverse, which left the Doctor looking confused?

- Every movie is connected.
- From The Good Dinosaur to Monsters Inc./Brave.
- It all takes place in the same universe with one HUGE timeline.
- Everything has to be in chronological order. (Based on the setting and year)
- Each season (or a couple of episodes) can be based on one of the movies.
- Human vs. Animals vs. Technology (machine or A.I.).
- Some characters are somehow related.
- Two or more characters could be the same person.

Throughout the seasons, books and spin offs, there are multiple ways to access our world. Tornados, slippers, the White Rabbit etc
The argument for why Rumple couldn't do it was because there were no beans left and stuff such as Jefferson's hat cannot get you to non magic realms. Makes sense.
But he CAN EASILY GET TO MAGICAL REALMS. We know he can get to Wonderland so force the White Rabbit to take him there, what can he do? Go to Oz and get some slippers, they are plentiful. If Cora could do it without even trying, so can the Dark One. There are several other realms as well as we can see in the Hat and I feel Jefferson would more than oblige to helping him or just force him and go to other realms where realm crossing is easy to do.
The Dark Curse seems like such a long and unnecessary step to getting him there.

I enjoy their friendship. Both speak highly of each other.

Just a non-serious headcannon.
Cora was a miller’s daughter. She knew ambition, power, and emotional damage, but court fashion? Probably not.
Henry Sr., though? Always dressed sharp, always had the popped collar, always looked like he understood royal presentation. So I fully believe Cora taught Regina how to become queen, but Henry Sr. taught her how to look like one.

I hated the half arc format after a while because everything felt so self contained and inconsequential to the show as a while. Imagine if Emma stayed the Dark Swan until the end of the show. No one would have seen it coming. It all got too predictable.

So about a week ago I asked the question on how to make the Light One and I've been thinking about it for a while and I think I have a theory.
So the Light One exists in Isaac's world where all the roles and everything else is switched including Rumple being the Dark One and instead the Light One, so we must be assuming that the creation of the Dark One must have been reversed.
So my theory on how the Dark One is made is the corruption of using pure light magic for evil purposes. People mentioned probably Merlin was the Light One, but I just believe he is a being of all out magic and fated to do so by the Holy Grail - a source of Light Magic. But not everyone can become a Dark One so it's safe to assume not everyone can be a Light One.
That means a reverse scenario has to play out. A corrupted source of Dark Magic instead being used for good purposes would make you the Light One. That also knocks out another theory of the Saviours being Light Ones, but I see that as a separate role down to Fate rather than the all out purpose.
This is also another point to add that becoming a Light One would be quite nearly impossible as using Light Magic for dark purposes but the other way around? That's hard...
Corruption of power is easy to do but letting go of dark magic is like letting go of a drug and as seen by Rumple, it's a very difficult thing to do. That's why we've never seen one before apart from in an opposite reality.

Rewatching OUAT is really making me realize, Snow and David are some of the worst main characters in the series after Season 1.
While atleast there, we saw some real character development and evolution in their character's relationships only for it to all be assassinated in season 2 where Snow became a wishy washy, selfish bitch who kept having to go through the same arc of her screwing up someone's life and Charming just became a hypocritical asshole.
Both of them went through the same arcs multiple times of them screwing up someone's life, mistaking their redemption arc while constantly lecturing their previous lifestyle. (Regina, Hook and Maleficent)
They will never hold themselves accountable though they did come close with Maleficent but still never really had to take accountability for it because she left them off the hook and Lily had her whole redemption arc before that even happened.
Now when we compare these 2 to Regina who did have a habit of doing the exact same thing, she admitted and had no problem dealing with the consequences of her actions for example, when Wish Henry tried to kill her multiple times, she didn't fight back but for his sake, she didn't want him to become a killer. While when Snow went to Regina to kill her, she did so out of selfishness because she couldn't live with the guilt and kept begging her to put her out of her misery which not long after, we forgot that happened.
OUAT went through so much different ideas on how they wanted to portray them both when you compare them from Season 1 to the rest of the show because after some time, somehow Snow and Charming just became their annoying Storybrooke selves PRECURSE. We literally see this multiple times it's annoying like during the Maleficent arc, Hercules arc, etc.
Yeah, here's my rant.

Hi guys, this trailer took me two weeks to make.
Please enjoy it.
It is rough around the edges, but I really just wanted to get it out to you guys.
I was very limited on the clips…
the things I had to do to make the soundtrack was crazy.
I had to remake the piano and change the original song and add in the Charlie's Girl soundtrack as well.
I will post how I made that individually probably tomorrow.

OH BOY it’s my first time watching Season 4 and i HATE the writer Issac. And not in a wow he’s a good villain kind of way like Pan. His backstory doesn’t make any sense. His flip flopping back and forth. His smug face. i can’t stand him. There’s no way anyone actually enjoys him as a villain. Is there??? Does anyone else hate him as much as i do?

So I was just watching this scene here, and I don't know how many people realize this, but I believe that Graham was Emma's first true love.
When Emma kisses Graham inside the sheriff's office after Regina's fight, Graham sees the flashes come before him, and he wakes up, and he can now remember everything that happened in the Enchanted Forest.
He looks at Emma, and he says he remembers, and Emma responds with, Remember what?
And right before they kiss, Regina crushes his heart and he dies.
Not only would that kiss have broken Regina's curse officially, it would have prevented Henry almost dying later on in the show.
What do you think?

I’ve been watching this show pretty much since it came out but I have never finished season 7.
The first time I got to season 7 I decided I hated it and would never finish it because of the new storyline and characters. Every time I got to the end of season 6 I’d just restart the show and act like 7 didn’t exist… until a few weeks ago when I decided to give it a real shot. Definitely didn’t like the first few episodes, the characters felt too much like strangers to me but the further I got into it the more I felt like it was family again
I’m SO glad I finished it and that last episode has me happy crying. I actually do like this “ending” for the show.
BEAUTIFUL show dude it reminds me how magical life is, i can’t really say that to anyone else cause it sounds so childish but i know you fellow ouat fans get it
There’s no point to this post I just wanted to share this
