OUAT S&S #318: "Have you ever met someone that you would change your entire world for? Someone whose eyes you knew you were born to gaze into?"
 credit: Spoilers & Speculations  “ONCE UPON A TIME” (Season 5)   Next Episode TV Promo Sneak Peeks Upcoming Episodes • •
crew Adam Horowitz, executive producer and writer | twitterpromotions Storybrooke: Ginny and Josh | Lana Evil Queen future thread titles "A man unwilling to fight for what he wants...deserves what he gets." "I thought you said you could outrun a storm. This isn't a storm. It's bloody damnation!" "Conjuring magic is not an intellectual endeavor. It's emotion" "Magic is about emotion. Summon up that moment that made you so angry you would've killed if you could." "Magic is power. Until you take power, you're not learning anything." "It's time for us to believe. Not in magic, but in each other." Henry from 1.02: "In the book, things always look worse right before there's good news." Hook: "How do you know how to sail a ship?" Henry: "I had a great teacher. You." "I couldn't let you die." ~ Regina I know the hero never believes at first, if they did it wouldn’t be a very good story." ~ Henry “Love makes people do foolish things.” ~ King Leopold “No one’s ever done anything like this to me before. No one’s ever been willing to die for me. - Snow White” "Sometimes being a hero means knowing when not to run into the fire.” ~ Prince Charming Emma: "There's nothing wrong with being cautious." Mary Margaret: "It may keep out pain, but it also may keep out love." “Never underestimate the power of a guilty conscience.” — Rumplestiltskin to Snow White and Prince Charming "What magic are you going to hide behind today?" ~ Hook “Innocence reclaimed can be just as powerful as innocence born. You simply have to choose to be good." - Glinda, 3.20 "Good deeds have their own reward. This comes with no price." ~ Rumplestiltskin, the Knight "You must stop the darkness." ~ The Apprentice "Thanks to the hero Regina's sacrifice. Isaac's villainous work was undone." ~ Henry, The Author "You figured out how to take the darkness out of me once. You need to do it again, as heroes." ~ Emma "Hang in there, Dark One. Don't let that heart turn to coal just yet." What happens when villains win the day? Regina... she's my favorite character. She's a real doozy, isn't she? I see it, but I don't believe it... Actually, the fact that you can see it tells me that you do believe. Sure, I can tell you. She... Sorry. No spoilers. The cardinal rule of The Authors is don't write your own happy ending. As you can see I broke that rule. If I ever meet Robin Hood in person, the only thing he gets is a broken nose. No need to yell, Snow. I will always find you. “Whether you’re a villain or a hero, everybody wants somewhere where they go at the end of the night where somebody cares about them.” – Edward Kitsis, Once Upon A Time: Journey to Neverland Vengeance is a very easy thing to pursue, a difficult thing to achieve, and then in the aftermath not necessarily something you want. – Adam Harrowitz, Once Upon a Time: Journey to Neverland “This is about family…and that’s what saves you in the end.”* x "Our show is for believers. We wanted to make this show about hope and not be cynical—which is tough in today’s world when usually anything that is cool is cynical. We wanted people once a week to feel the way I felt when I watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and the boy got the golden ticket. For me that personally was important. I like that feeling and it’s important. Henry embodies that." - Eddie Kitsis from Neil Landau’s 'The TV Showrunner’s Roadmap’ • S5: http://41.media.tumblr.com/ab4cb332f...f3pxo1_500.png previous threads Season 3 spoiler threads #100 - #193 Season 4 spoiler threads #194 - #313 OUAT S&S #319: “When we face our deepest fears our real courage comes out.” __________________

The difference is that American audiences often don't care whether a British actor is portraying a iconic American as long as the accent is well researched and executed, but you're right to say that the British would make a huge stink over even the most believable of fake accents. Like, seriously, could you imagine an American or a Canadian playing Churchill? It would never fly. That's the very definition of double standard. __________________

It's not a double standard because it is two different groups each judging a single situation, not one group judging two very similar situations differently. I would guess that many American TV viewers who are not overinvested online fans are not aware that some actors in well-known American TV shows are British. |

And the bolded part is soooooo silly. I hope that's not offensive to anyone but seriously it's ridiculous. But again I don't think this is relevant for OUAT because OUAT does not air in Great Britain. It is not relevant to the British general audience. There are many British fans but I think these are primarily the more "hardcore" viewers who are going out of their way to keep up with the show by streaming and downloading it. I don't think that's too many people. I think more British people watched when the show aired on TV but now that it's no longer easy to watch I think much of the audience in that country stopped watching.  Quote:
And if the British audiences got so upset and decided to boycott, it wouldn't matter considering the show doesn't air in GB.  So ultimately it doesn't really matter how some people in a country where the show doesn't even air react. In fact it shouldn't even be debated so let's just agree to disagree.

And for the bolded: why can't we say the same about casual British viewers? What would the difference be in this case? If they aren't "over-invested online fans," then why worry that they'd even notice? A good actor can put on a believable accent, so honestly, what's the concern? __________________

Also Robin Hood Prince of Thieves starred Kevin Costner, Morgan Freeman and Christian Slater. All American actors. And the movie was very popular and made lots of money. Same with the more recent Russel Crowe and Cate Blanchett Robin Hood movie. Both are Australian actors and the movie was still very successful.
IMO Robin Hood is as much of an iconic British character as King Arthur. So let's just move on... Quote:

And the show is doing very well. Netflix is just as popular as a delivery channel in Europe as it is in North America. Web-only programming is the coming thing there, too. abc can earn more money and reach more viewers from Netflix streaming than from TV broadcast in that market. People who have satellite TV can also watch it on RTL.

It is also not true that actors from other countries like britian or austraila make less then american actors where they are from has no bearing as long as they can legally work in the usa and amounts are based on resume As for Robin Hood i agree it is defenitly an ionic character for britian as king author is i was not a fan of the russel one but i love prince of thieves and british actor adam rickman was also in it( who was also in harry potter) awesome movie i had to download it Last edited by samantha24; 06-09-2015 at 09:06 PM |
