Hi, 1FunkyMonkey here,
Today is going to be all over the place, so just hang in there. We are going to start off with Doodlelolly0910's comment.
OK, Doodlelolly0910, I have to agree with you on some things, but on others, not so much. Let's start off with the Cinderella thing.
I get why you're upset that Cinderella is Henry's wife (yes, I've found out that they are married), and I agree with some reasons why you're mad, but others, not really. I agree with you that it was lazy of OUAT to reuse Cinderella, but Adam and Eddie did have an answer for this, "If we remember Henry's grandfather is Prince Charming, so we have the grandson of Prince Charming with a new Cinderella." I do not like this answer like you too, but I always wondered why the prince in Snow White and the prince in Cinderella are both called Prince Charming. So I believe that OUAT was trying to come up with an explanation for this.
Gosh, am I really supporting Adam and Eddie with this choice? I thought that I disagreed with it? Maybe I do, maybe I don't, I don't know, I haven't really thought about it too much. But I am upset that they are reusing Cinderella. She was already part of the show and does not need to come back. Maybe OUAT couldn't get an approval on any other Disney characters and that's why they're reusing her? Because I think that their explanation is sh— wait, this is rated K… lets try this again… Because I think that their explanation is not very good. Yeah, lets go with that.
Ok, this is the part where I disagree with you, Doodlelolly0910. Yes, I am still talking to you.
I actually didn't like how Cinderella was portrayed originally in OUAT. I mean, I don't have anything against Jessy Schram—who played Cinderella earlier— but I really didn't like how little information we were given on her. We only had one episode with Cinderella in Season 1 and then another in Season 6, making the total of Cinderella episodes 2. Simple math guys, simple math.
Although we were given a lot of info in the episode in Season 6, I just didn't like Cinderella in Once Upon A Time. So I am a little excited to see how they portray Cinderella this time. My anger at Adam and Eddie isn't as much as some peoples because I never liked how Cinderella was made, so I'm giving them a second chance. But I do agree that it was lazy of them when there are many, many more Disney characters out there for Henry to love. I guess you can say that I have mixed feelings about this whole "new Cinderella" thing.

Alrighty, I'm done talking about your comment now Doodlelolly0910, so you can stop yelling at your screen right now because you disagree with my response. We are now going to talk about this whole reboot thing because I actually got it wrong.
So, Season 7 isn't going to be a reboot. It's supposed to be a new chapter. Adam and Eddie said that the don't want to erase the previous six years of OUAT, but just want to elaborate on them. They said that the DNA of the show would be the same. There will still be flashbacks. Apparently, everyone doesn't have as much as happy endings, but happy beginnings. How is that supposed to happen with more than half the cast gone huh?! Another's supposed to be a new curse and new identities? Again, how is that supposed to work?!
That's all I have to say about that because I just found a new article on Season 7 and I really want to talk about that.

I found this new article on about Season 7 and it gave major spoilers. And I mean really major spoilers. You should guys should really check it out.
I found out that Gabrielle Anwar will play the new wicked stepmother to Cinderella, Lady Tremaine. Media Cox is playing Tiana, the heroine of The Princess and the Frog. Rose Reynolds is playing a new version of Alice from Alice in Wonderland, because even though OUAT had Wonderland in their show, Alice was never introduced. Adelaide Kane is playing Cinderella's stepsister, Drizella, whom is supposed to be super wicked.
Colin also said in an interview that, "I'd like to know more about Hook's mother, which is something we haven't touched upon much yet." Were you giving us some spoilers Colin? If I recall correctly, the second episode is called "A Pirates Life" and is supposed to be about Hook, so maybe we will see moe about Hook's mother. And all we know about his dad is that he left Hook and Liam to fend for themselves and started a new family. So maybe we'll see some more about him too.
Oh, and while we're at it, I've heard that Emma will appear in "A Pirates Life" instead of the first episode, "Hyperion Heights". "Hyperion Heights" is the name of Henry's new neighborhood, if you didn't know. I'm sure that you do though. It's been a while since I've written a chapter for this "story". Actually, I took a break from it for about a month. That's right. A month. There's been a lot of information that's come out now, and I'm trying to keep track of it all. So we're shifting gears to the new trailer that's come out! YAY!

Ohmygod, there's so much new information, I don't know where to start! So, I'm just going to talk about the new Comic-Con trailer that's not so new, but whatever.
So, for about half of the trailer is video clips that we've seen already. You know, Henry taking Emma to Storybrooke, and then it shows, like, the clocktower, Granny's, Mr. Gold's Pawn Shop, and Regina's house. You know, that clocktower has always mystified me. I have a theory on it, but we're talking about the trailer, not a mysterious building that may have to do with the rise and fall of Storybrooke. Wait, what? Oh, forget that I said anything. Erase, erase, erase.
But, I do have to admit that the narrator or whatever does kind of have a creepy voice. It makes my skin crawl. I hope I'm not the only one though because that would be weird.
Once all of the old clips are over, we see Lucy knocking on Henry's door telling him that his family needs him. Ok, I know that that's not really a new clip, but It kind of is at the same time, ok? Go easy on me guys. Then, that creepy song starts and we see another "new" clip. The one where Henry pulls out that all important sword, and try to fight off a cloud of smoke. A cloud of smoke! Like, really? How do you fight that with a sword? I have a guess what that cloud of smoke is too, actually.
I believe that the cloud of smoke is the new curse, that changed Regina, Killian, and Gold. After we see Henry trying to fight off a cloud/curse with a sword, the trailer says that, "A new curse awakens". What does that mean? I bet that it's the curse that gave Regina, Killian, and Gold their new identities and whatever is going with them nowadays. But did the curse bing Henry to Seattle? Does he have his memories?
It is said that Lady Tremaine has taken advantage of this new curse and is trying to gain power off of it. I wonder if it's because she hates Cinderella so much (well, she does, so that's probably why) or if she's upset that Cinderella started a family without her permission. I'm assuming so anyways. We don't know if Lade Tremaine cast the curse or not, but I wonder if she was targeting a certain person/people (cough—Henry and Cinderella—cough) or if she really just wanted power and to get her "happy ending" like the Evil Queen.
Ok, back to the trailer.
So, basically, after that, it shows all (I'm assuming all. I haven't counted) of the new cast. And the old cast. I mean, you know, Killian, Gold, and Regina. Of course Henry's there, heroically fighting a cloud/curse with a sword, but he's an adult with a new perspective on things. And he's being played by a new actor. That technically makes him a new character. But I'm going to talk about the old cast. Again. yay.
So the trailer shows, like, 0.2 seconds of Regina, Killian, and Gold, but lucky for you guys, I was able to figure out who they are. Well, sort of. I don't know their new names, but I've figured out their new professions and such.
So first it shows Killian. I didn't have to do too much digging on Killian's new character because you can clearly see that he's a cop. I wonder if his name is Guyliner because he sure had that on his face. You know, I was surprised when Emma never called him that. You know how like, every couple has nicknames for each other, such as Charming and what not. But Emma never really called Killian anything other than Killian or Hook. Interesting. But anyways, Killian's new name is Rogers. Actually, I think that's his last name. I wonder if he's jolly huh?
"…..He's different from any of the other 10 different Hooks that I've played over the six seasons," O'Donoghue teased. "There's a sense of loss there in the guy. I think he just doesn't know what it is that's missing. He's striving to find who he is still. The Hook that we meet is trying to be the best uniform cop than he can be...but as with Once Upon a Time it's a bit more complicated than that."
It's obvious that no matter how terrible a curse is, you can never really get ride of who a person really is. My theory is that Hook is missing someone very important in his life…..Emma where are yyooouuuuuuuu…..
Ok, onto Regina.
So Regina is now a bartender in Seattle. In some flashbacks, she's apparently been separated from Henry for many years now. So a huge change is that Regina's relationship is very different with Henry in both realms. Supposedly—in Seattle— it's much like Emma and Mary Margret's relationship before the first curse was broken. I'm guessing that Henry knows who Regina is—well, if he has his memories, which I think he does— but she doesn't remember him. That must be hard.
"She's a little rough around the edges. Not the queen that we're used to. She has curly hair. She looks different, she feels different," Parrilla said. "She's no longer in charge. We've always seen Regina in charge or try to be in charge or try to manipulate...This Regina is something else. I'm having a blast playing her."
I wonder what Regina's missing. If Killian's missing something, Regina must be too. Maybe it's Henry?
Now, Mr. Gold. He's being as sneaky as ever because I literally can't find any information on his new identity. All I have is that 0.1 second glimpse of him looking very suspicious in the trailer. I read in the comments that he might be a detective, but Killian is a cop, so I don't think that Adam and Eddie would have their characters have very similar jobs. Maybe he's some creepy stalker or something because he sure looked like one. He's kept his hairstyle too.
Anyways, the last couple seconds of the trailer show Cinderella's story. I think that it's Cinderella's story anyways. Although, I'm pretty sure that I saw Tiana and Alice in there too, but I could be wrong.
The last words said in the trailer are, "Find your story, when a new book opens, and Once Upon A Time begins."
So, I'm going to let you guys think about that because I'm getting very confused right now. But it seems to be confirmed that Henry is off to find his own story and that there's other story's like "….a French Snow White…" as Henry says. I'm interested to see how this all turns out. October 6th can't come fast enough!

A/N:
Hi, 1FunkyMonkey here,
So, I'm sorry that I haven't written a "chapter" on this "story" recently, I've just been busy with other things. I know that I've updated a lot on my other stories, but I'm kinda taking a break from the real OUAT and focusing on my fan fiction OUAT right now. FYI, I'm not including Season 7 into my Once Upon A Time fan fiction, in case you were wondering.
So, yeah, there's a lot of new information that I haven't been keeping up with, sorry about that. I'll try to write another "chapter" soon on the newest information, liked leaked photos and stuff.
Anyways, I don't know what to say other than I'm sorry for slacking off on this story.
Thanks for reading and have a fantastic day!
