Do you or anyone following this blog have the gif of the scene where hook tries to hold emmas hand and she snatches it away? pls i need this for a good laugh

Ooooooh I know the gif you’re talking about but I don’t have it. I’ll post and see if anyone else does. Maybe just check the notes often to see if anyone has/posts it? This blog is obviously not all that active since the show is over but you never know! Someone might have it!

Any followers have the gif nonnie is talking about?

I once spoke about Colin being cast in a Thorn Birds remake and a CS obsessive said JMo should play the female. I let out a deep groan. The whole conversation was ruined after that.

I have no idea what that is so I can’t speak for casting but it does get tiring after awhile. 

Like... There are other/better actresses who exist. And they don’t paw at Colin like a cat in heat either.

It makes me sad that many fans don't have the imagination to see him as anything other than JMo's boyfriend/husband. For the rest of his life they're going to demand JMo be his significant other and want to replace any actress who gets the job with her.

If by sad you mean pathetic..... Then I agree. Lol. 

It’s pathetic that they can’t just... Move on and let him flex his acting talents with other on screen partners.

anon, thanks for this. I’ve had a rough couple of days so waking up to this in my inbox was needed. ---> Glad I could brighten your day in some way [HUG]. And I am sure if we got in person promotion for the show, she wouldn't have clung to him or said "Oh, Colin" followed up by a dreamy sigh. So glad he's far away from JMo.

I also find it highly amusing that when Colin was first announced for the show... CSers/Colifers demanded JMO play his wife.

B/c they have a very difficult marriage (and eventually divorce after all of this) in history. So it’s not like they would have gotten domestic, happy CS AU moments.

It’s nice that Colin’s new TV wife, Eloise, seems to have tact. What a breath of fresh air to not see her fawning over a married man like she has a Jr High crush.

LOLOLOLOLOL 

anon, thanks for this. I’ve had a rough couple of days so waking up to this in my inbox was needed. 

Anyway, I agree. I especially loved her comment on the Disney+ pic of him as Gordon and Hook where it said “We’re Hooked on Colin O’Donoghue’ and she responded ‘Me too’. It made me giggle. It was funny but not a creepy response to make. Just complimenting her co-star in a normal way. 

I’m finding it hilariously ironic that when Colin’s casting was first announced.... CSers/Colifers were all: “Cast JMO as his wife!” wanting domestic CS in their fantasies.... 

But in reality..... Gordon is having marriage troubles and they end up officially divorced afterwards. And that it’s portrayed in the series apparently. *snickers*

Also, sort of random but... If you guys hear news about any of the OUAT cast that you love with upcoming projects (Sorry not JMO though) that you think others want to know about, drop me a line and I’ll put it here!

I often feel like a lot of the cast as a whole didn’t get the recognition they deserve so I’d love to hear more about them! I simply haven’t really heard about anyone other than Colin lately is all. 

Neal Cassidy, Once Upon A Time

Poor Neal. Not only was he saddled with a most unflattering backstory in which, at August/Pinocchio’s behest, he let a teenage Emma take the lone rap for a robbery (and thus wind up behind bars, pregnant!), but when he years later resurfaced in Emma’s life he barely got a fair shake. That in turn deprived viewers of what could have been a gripping love triangle between him, Emma and Hook, before he gave his life to save his Dark One dad.

I remembered I still hate Captain Swan lol. But years later with more knowledge of storytelling, what strikes me is how the show went with CS but undercut them a lot, told and rarely showed, refused to give them a TLK kiss though that should've been an easy choice etcetera. IMO there were competing forces with ABC execs and that writers' room. Very obvious now to see the mandate after seeing it happen in other shows too.

Honestly, I don’t think it was any kind of competing forces. 

I think it was just proof of how BAD of writers they were on the show and that’s it. 

B/c I’ve seen other shows start off a ship on a show and then they give it up when they see they have a better ship(s) as another option(s). 

The writers COULD have done that if they truly knew CS was a boring or bad they could have not done it. They weren’t obligated to ABC over a ship that wasn’t fairytale canon in the films or books they were pulling from.

The writers were just stupid imo.

Hi I just need to vent and I’m glad this blog exists. Because even though the show is over I keep liking screen caps on Instagram and on my suggestion today I saw a picture of CS and all those memories of how they ruined Emma and even Hook, came back. Gosh what a train wreck! I don’t even know where or how to find peace with what they did to the show.

Hi there! Sorry for taking so long to get to the asks in my inbox. It’s been a helluva year overall (thanks 2020) and other stuff I was going through personally. 

Anyway....

I’m so glad that you’re glad this blog exists!

I hate that the show had so much potential for all the characters and then they just.... Ruined everything. As I said before, Hook as a character especially had potential but they ruined him for what.... A poorly written ship, whom he had zero chemistry with? (which I find ironic since Colin seemed to have chemistry with literally everyone else on the show)

(1) I find it very telling that most the arguments against hook/CS are responded with “but this character/ship...” or “you’re a hypocrite, you like...” If we say Hook is a bad stepdad they say Regina and Rumple are worse parents. If we say CS is unhealthy they say rumbelle, sq, oq, or sf are unhealthier. If we say Hook took up too much screen time they say Regina took up more. I could go on all day. That’s the Tu Quoque fallacy. Even if everyone who hate hook/cs was a big hypocrite that wouldn’t

(part 2) and I got attacked for it by them. I wasn't hating on the ship and thought I was pretty respectful to it even tho I'm not really a fan! Apparently it's "upsetting" to see this minor ship in their tag with thousands of fics and to claim CS aren't TL even though that's just my opinion! What's upsetting is being told you're awful and being hated on for tagging their ship and claiming they're not TL. They're the most spiteful of fandoms and I loathe that I used to ship CS

Guess who’s finally cleaning out this inbox after a stressful summer for me.

Look, I LOVED the idea/concept of Hook when he was first introduced. I LOVE a good grey area character/villain. He could have been SUCH an interesting character if they kept him as a morally ambiguous pirate character who was more of an anti hero. 

But instead, the writers just ignored all the bad he did and pretended he was some pure and noble hero the whole time which is just lazy writing. 

To me, that’s what MADE Regina and Rumple more interesting as characters. They had layers. They weren’t perfect on their road to redemption and that’s what made them feel more real. They had setbacks in their development as heroes, etc. 

Hook’s redemption was just straight up ignored and that still pisses me off. 

And CS/Hook fans calling people hypocrites for enjoying Regina or Rumple just shows their poor taste in well written characters. 

I just saw pics/gifs of the CS wedding again (yikes) and I had to relieve the tragedy that was that ugly ass dress and the fact that they literally got married on the roof of a building that looked like literally no one gave shit about the wedding. 

Like… Sure I hate the ship. But you’d think they’d put more effort into planning  a wedding. Like, they could’ve married on the Jolly Roger or by the docks or something more in tune with the fact that he’s a damn pirate. 

They really were lazy with that wedding weren’t they.

Wow, degrading other women just because they get married and wore a wedding dress. Get over yourself. Captain Swan is MARRIED. They’re REAL. And most importantly, they’re happy TOGETHER. Back off and stop hating on a woman who is nothing but kindhearted and sweet to everyone. And the show is over. So top criticizing a damn fairy tale wedding and move along

Just to clarify.....

You’re:

  •  (again) stalking essentially an inactive blog, finding posts to complain about.
  • Claiming that I ‘degraded’ Emma by calling her dress ugly (which I blame the costume department for that atrocity) 
  • Think CS is real when it is in fact, a ship from a show therefore they are not real people
  • BTW I was essentially saying that YOUR beloved ship deserved a better wedding than the shit one they got. 

And you’re still being a rude, ass bitch? 

Go find something else to do with your quarantine time. I’ve got bigger problems than you right now. But you CSers don’t care about other people so I can’t say I’m surprised.
