2022-07-27 07:16:27 +0000 UTCJust a few points: 'Up' was definitely used in this episode. The house was meant to look like the house in 'Up'. Even the music in that scene was reminiscent of the score in the film. Tilly/Alice is easily my favorite character of this season. I think they did a great job casting her. She's absolutely adorable, and Rose Reynolds is a fabulous actress. You missed a HUGE plot point. You were so focused on the kitties when they kind of threw something out at us on the show. For me, I remember when I saw it the first time, I was able to pick up on it right away. However, I've seen a few reactions to the scene in question, and it seems like only half of the reactors picked up on it. Maybe if you go back and re-watch that part while you're editing, you'll figure it out. ;)

2022-07-27 04:13:04 +0000 UTCBeauty- Rumplestiltskin's awake once again!!! Thank you for another great reaction for Once Upon a Time, Jessie! I really enjoyed watching your reaction, like always. And wow... this episode is so heartbreaking, yet really beautiful for the most part. Phenomenal acting between Robert Carlyle and Emilie de Ravin. It's tragic how Belle's story ends, yet very beautiful too. I love how the prophecy ties to her death, and that it will help Gold find a way to rid himself of the dagger and the Darkness once and for all so he can finally return one day Belle. It's just very sad how she becomes sick and dies. However, I absolutely love seeing the flashbacks of past moments between them as Belle tells their story before she dies. I like that Gold and Belle find a new land together called the Edge of Realms, where time, but not aging stops. Their life together is quite beautiful, as they build a new home and work together to find a way to help him rid himself of the dagger. It's funny how often you mention how these scenes between Rumple and Belle in the flashbacks make you think of the Disney movie... Up. And it should, because the music being played in these scenes is the music from Up. As is the significance of their backstory as they're shown building their home together, and seeing Belle growing older and sadly die by the end. Just like Ellie dies in the beginning of the Disney movie. However, I will say that I feel that the timeline in this episode is quite confusing at first, especially with seeing Gideon three different ages. But I eventually caught on. The timeline this season, more so than any other time within the show's seven seasons so far, is more complicated because they're kind of more all over the place. And yet after re-watching this episode and a few others, I was able to put the puzzles together so to speak. Even the brief scene between Gold and Alice when he first walks through a portal into the New Enchanted Forest and runs into her confused me, and only made me more confused. Alice was chasing the white rabbit and we even saw Henry drive right past Rumple on his bike, but neither men recognized each other? Even if Henry was driving by on his motorcycle very fast. I didn't understand it until later on. Which if you're confused now, hopefully you will come to understand the timelines better later on too. I have to admit... when Gold tells Belle that there is a chance he could give up his immortality so that he could live one life and grow old with her, I immediately was skeptical. First, because while Gold chose to turn against his power in the season six finale and was able to live so long resisting it, he has never given up his power for Belle in the past and he never actually found a way to rid himself of the power for good. Therefore, a part of me didn't believe he meant what he told Belle here. However, I hoped I would be surprisingly be wrong and thankfully, I was. This episode really shows that Rumple truly has changed for good, which I love and I'm really happy for them. Because we get to see years of their lives together and see them truly happy together. I also love the opening scene between Belle, Gold, and their son in Storybrooke. It is so nice to see Granny's again and more of the town itself again, as we've only ever seen the ocean surrounding Storybrooke from the Jolly Roger so far this season. And I really see how far Gold's come to keep fighting against his power. This scene between them is so sweet. As for Alice/Tilly... Her scenes together with Rumple/Weaver are actually my favorite moments within this episode. I love all of her many references to Alice in Wonderland... With how she acts mad like the Mad Hatter while trying to remember what she needs to tell Weaver in order to get him to remember he is really Rumplestiltskin, seeing her white rabbit mask, her puzzles, her talking about how we all wear masks, and the few words she speaks about wanting to be big and not small. I really love her as a character, who is mischievous and trouble, and she is great when she faces off against Weaver despite her pills kicking in as she fought to wake up Rumplestiltskin from within him. I think that the scene as Tilly sneaks into Victoria's car is creepy, yet nicely done. I actually really love the twist with her pills and how weaning off from them allows Alice to come out again. This allows Tilly to be suspicious of the way Hyperion Heights has become, and how she comes to be there, but without actually knowing the truth about the curse falling over them. It's really great. I also enjoy the first scene between Weaver and Victoria in her office. Although, it surprised me just how fast she has learned so much about Tilly and so quickly. But aside from this... I like how Victoria threatens Weaver with prison, in order to force him to get Tilly under control, and yet while Weaver didn't know then who he really was, he still is able to mostly stand up to Victoria. I love the scene at Roni's between her and Henry as she comforts Henry when he tells her about finding the graves. It is very motherly of Roni as she tries to help him, and very sweet. Also... Roni's costume is cute and I like how Henry tells her that her 'poisoned' apple drink could use some cinnamon. A very nice throwback to the rest of the seasons when they show Emma, Henry, and Snow drinking their favorite drink... hot chocolate with cinnamon. And we also see several Halloween costumes that are a throwback as well. Not just to this show, but to Disney in general. We see a young girl dressed up as Elsa, a woman as Snow White, and we see a family dressed as the Incredibles. Very nice! I do enjoy the brief scene between Henry and Drizella, or Ivy. I can understand why Ivy feels the ways she does, needing to have someone's acceptance. Although, I think thanks to Henry, she realizes that she will never have it from her mother and I like how they work together to find Lucy. Ivy's still not very nice, but this might be a good start. I also really love the scene between Weaver and Rogers, as Rogers offers to help Tilly because he cares about what actually happens to the girl, hoping for a chance to help her in the belief he has failed to help the missing girl from his cold case. But like I expected, Weaver is a real jerk about it and tells Rogers he will deal with Tilly his own way. It certainly didn't work out like he planned. Next... the scene between Weaver and Tilly in the car as she is trying to take him someplace to make him remember, is surprising. I didn't expect Tilly to tell him that he is a good man with someone waiting for him to remember who he really is and return home. Tilly appeared to be more of a villain at first like Weaver appeared to be as well, but clearly her character is very complicated, and her multiple personalities I love and find very interesting. But then she shows him Belle's chipped teacup in hope of reminding him of who he is, claiming that her doing so was per Rumplestiltskin's orders, as she grows madder like the Mad Hatter and shoots him. I didn't see this coming at all. Yikes! And brilliant! I really love how Rogers is the first one Weaver awakens to, other than Weaver seeing Belle's face in the fog before he comes out of his haze to see Rogers standing above him. It is funny how Rogers tells him he must be bloody immortal, then states it is just a joke, seeing as Rogers can't remember he's really Captain Hook. I think this is my favorite line in the entire episode. Very funny. And I also love seeing Rogers come out to talk with Tilly, understanding that she hadn't been in her right mind when she shot Weaver, then seeing him play chess with her. Which is quite significant. If you recall the chess piece that Wish Hook gives to Killian back in A Pirate's Life... you see it's the black rook, and Wish Hook tells Killian that he has his daughter's rook and that she has his white knight. Well... here in this moment, Rogers instinctively reaches out to move the black rook first. Not knowing just how significant this piece is to him. This is a big clue that tells us just how important this first moment between Rogers and Tilly really is. And of course... Gold is now truly and fully awake, which is proven to us by him calling Victoria 'Dearie', then as he tells her she would no longer be able to threaten him any longer. It's brilliant. Will Rumple continue to be good for Belle's and Gideon's sake now that he's back to himself, or will he revert back into Rumplestiltskin now that Belle is gone? You'll have to wait and see. Overall... I really enjoy this episode despite the few things that are a bit confusing. I know that this episode is a favorite episode for most fans of Once Upon a Time. Especially for those whose favorite character is Belle. I love Belle and I love Rumple. But they aren't my favorite characters throughout this show despite Beauty and the Beast being one of my absolute favorite Disney movies too... if not my very favorite. And while I do love this episode, it's just not one of my favorites. It's beautiful, but there are definitely other story arcs and storylines that I love within this season even more. Thank you so much again for another fun reaction, for a beautiful episode, Jessie! Loved watching this! And again... Happy Birthday!!! :) Sincerely, Heidi

2022-07-27 01:44:48 +0000 UTCWhen you said you didn't want to cry in the last video and realized what episode you're on, I was like..." oh, no." It was such a good send-off of Belle's character. It's so sad because you know Belle is my favorite, but it's such a beautiful goodbye. Also, I love Tilly. Such a good Alice!

2022-07-27 01:31:26 +0000 UTCThe UP parallels are definitely intentionally. The travel book, and their house looks similar too. And Belle´s death was so well written! But, shoutout to the new characters! Now that we have seen a bit more of them. I absolutely LOVE both Tilly/Alice and Ivy/Drizella. Both of their actresses are so good! Alice is so much more fun than in OUATIW. And Ivy is hard to read, but very intriguing. Honestly the new castmembers really still make me a bit sad that they cancelled it after season 7. Their characters are so good! And I would have loved to get more from them, and not just a single season.
