If this wasn’t their subtle way to reference Ever After, than the stars have aligned to make it happen regardless
really just obsessed with the concept of cinderella’s prince being named henry… what if it WAS meant to be…
James Norrington did nothing wrong. His only crime was being a Jane Austen hero in a Disney movie based on a theme park ride.
I’m joining you on that hill
To all Oncers, do we think David Nolan aka Prince Charming is illiterate? Like he has to be without a doubt. All that’s stopping it from being canon is one person on the show saying so
silent rave
Toni Morrison? Alice Walker? Zora Neale Hurston? Ralph Ellison? James Baldwin? Lorraine Hansbury? Maya Angelou? Octavia Butler? Langston Hughes? Bell Hooks? Many many many many others? Go fuck yourself you lazy, anti-intellectual asshole
PRIDE AND PREJUDICE (1995)
The show would be peak television if we just got a little bit of George Russell’s bare ass
if The Gilded Age (the show) wanted to be Great, it would stop the bullshit with Meryl Streep's daughter and be about:
a) fucking
b) Nathan Lane's accent
c) that Russell broad going "darling I need 37.3 million 2023 dollars (American) to fund a party at which I will drop an entire chandelier on Mrs. Astor and her associates"
to which her husband invariably hands her a blank check and goes "what my baby wants my baby gets, now send a telegram if you need me, I'm off to kill a union leader in the street"
WHAT were they thinking w this shot. i’m shaking
#she said stop being a fake fan lmao Rosamund Pike being interviewed for Saltburn (2023)
Okay, I get they wanted a way to wrap up Rumple's arc in season 7 and wanted to show Rumple was capable of redeeming without Belle.
But guys, we were robbed of season 7 morally grey police officer Rumple and florist/author Belle having a dorky crush on each other. He would come into her shop every morning at the same time to pick up a bouquet of roses (but really, it was to see her adorable face). He was the only one she could talk to about her dreams of getting her book published because she was too scared to share them with anyone else.
Rumple would then awkwardly ask Henry to help him convince Belle to publish her book (and we could have had an episode with Henry and Rumple bonding like old times). Having Belle alive would have been the perfect opportunity to bring Gideon back into the story, so he wouldn't be a wasted character anymore.
(why couldn't we have this, it's already leagues above the annoying and forced relationship Henry and Jacina had)
Season 7 isn't bad, it's just wasted potential.
It was a chance to focus on characters other than the Charmings, but instead, they introduced boring new characters nobody cared about because focusing on villains or morally grey, complex characters is hard to write, and they couldn't be bothered to put in the work.
