#SDCC #OUAT Panel - Once Upon a Time

The OUAT Panel was pretty amazing. I really enjoy panels that have special things prepared.

 

On the panel:

Ginnifer Goodwin, Jennifer Morrison, Lana Parrilla, Josh Dallas, Robert Caryle, Emilie de Ravin, Colin O'Donoghue and Michael Raymond James, along with executive producers Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz.

 

One of my most fave parts of this panel was "Good Morning Storybrooke" video which I have to share with you because it was so awesome:

 

 

 

Some details:

• We will see Tinkerbell and a surprising connection to someone in Storybrooke on the panel today
• Peter Pan has "complicated motivation" and may be seen as a bit scary or evil
• Show will run 11 episodes in Fall then 11 episodes in Spring to avoid the big breaks and mixed up schedules again.
• We discussed all the relationships being shipped (Swan Queens for example) writers mentioned they get a lot of tweets about who fans want together and reminded fans to be respectful of each other.
• A same-sex relationship may be coming, but they want to do it right and celebrate love
• Parrilla's fave kill is coming this season
• Hook (O'Donoghue) is a real gentleman, until his leather jacket is on then he is "a spicy gentleman" says Morrison. He adds that he is a mix of Princess Bride and his friends
• Talked about climing a screen screen with one hand (O'Donaghue) and having to bite it and get bruised up (Morrison)

 

 

Here is the "trailer" they showed introducing a red haired mermaid coming next season:




Here is the panel I found online, as I didn't record the session:

Once Upon A Time finale filming

Today my family went to Steveston, B.C. for a nice day of sunshine and to see some of the sets used in 'Storybrooke'

Even though we don't live too far away, we had never had the time to go check it out, so today was the day - and a great day it was.
We found out they had filmed that morning and got to watch them film two different scenes.

The first scene was Gold and Belle and the second scene involved the dwarves. We also saw a quick scene involving some extras
We found out the finale would air early or mid-May and it was a two-hour finale (not sure if two hour on one night or two separate nights)



*SPOILER*
Gold walked out of his shop in a suit and sun glasses, looked around then Belle came out of the shop in a tight black mini dress. She looked around then said something we could not hear before giving him a hug.

Next the extras, one girl and two boys, ran down the sidewalk past Golds shop. They could have been running from something.

Last the dwarves were in the main street. We left as this scene began.

Here are some photos from today. I know they will be taken and used elsewhere, so I should care and tag / watermark them all, but to be honest, I am very tired from a day in the sunshine, so I will just ask that if you use these photos you link back to this post as the source. Thank-you in advance.






Before filming, we were taking photos outside Golds and noticed this happening inside... very cool preparations for filming!




Was super cool of the cast to wave good bye and stop to talk with fans, I am regretting not going to see filming sooner, but excited to catch part of the season finale filming

Once Upon a Time is awesome...

Who watches? I love how they intertwine classical fairy tales with modern times.

I hate that they killed off Graham, but I think somehow, he should return.

About to watch tonight's all new episode... squeeee....

Once Upon a Time

Who has seen this amazing new show? First of all, it is filmed locally, here in Vancouver, which means I always give it a go, I love watching locally filmed television shows. But, what was awesome about this series is just how great it is! I am a huge fairy tale fanatic anyways, but this story is a grest twist on the traditional and has amazing writing and storylines so far. If you haven't checked it out, you must! Basically the fairy tale characters are trapped in modern time because of a curse that the evil witch cast after a deal with rumpelstiltskin. All the fairy tale characters we know and love have a modern role and are unaware of their own true identity. A young boy knows and as he tries to convince a few trusted adults, including his birth mother who is unknowingly tied into the tale... his adopted mother (the evil witch) tries to keep the secret. It is amazing! So.... who watches?
