So I was a little skeptical and thought this would be best airing as the "bridge" for OUaT but this looks GREAT. Easily better than the original series even, I think the special effects are nicer at least and I like the Victorian setting. Looking forward to it. And if ABC promotes this like they did Once I think it will get at least a big premiere audience.
Wow, when we first saw Wonderland on Once i thought it looked kinda cheap, here it looks fantatic. Really looking forward to this. Hope they find ways to tie it into Once. I might be mistaken but i thought Neverland was also in the trailer.
Also where is that trailer-music from, i've heard it before
The shot was definitely Cora, taken from OUAT, but the woman who appeared as a queen in red is not her. But we know Cora becomes the Queen of Hearts at some point and that shot of her seating in the throne gave me hope we might see Barbara again.
I never had any interest in Once Upon A Time but Once Upon a Time in Wonderland looks fantastic! I will try this show for sure. This is a spin off right? I just hope that it won't matter that I don't follow Once Upon A Time.
Ya I'm pretty sure there are rumored talks and that one article said we might see different time periods in Wonderland...So even if it builds up to Cora over time, I think it would be a smart move for people who are also OUAT viewers. (and Sebastian Stan cameo wouldn't hurt either!)
The Queen we saw the face off is Emma Rigby who is playing the Red Queen and not the Queen of Hearts. Two different characters though I could be wrong since the press release credits Emma as the Queen of Hearts,
You can watch Wonderland without watching OUAT. There are two separate shows, two different stories, although in Wonderland probably will appear some characters from original series like Cora- Queen of Hearts, or Mad Hatter.
I think that Red Queen = Queen of Hearts, generally the Queen of Wonderland. And Cora might be the successor of Red Queen. She will kill her or something :D
The rumours about time periods must be right because we have Alice's flashbacks and her rescue in present... So, maybe she was in Wonderland before Cora came and now they are helping her after the evil Cora died in OUAT's Storybrooke?
Ok, to be quite honest I wasn't interested in this at all. But after watching the prmo, I'm definitely hooked. I may just drop OUAT for this one, it sure looks a lot more inteteresting.
Oh, I completely forgot that the book can be the source of knowledge :D Thanks, that explains a lot. Hopefully the creators of the show won't forget it like me.
I will give it a try for sure but I don't think the promo has done it any favours. It looks too much like a teenage love story in a mystical setting. I dunno. I was expecting more fantasy related stuff. It did have and those bit were good, but I am not too sure. Still, I will be in to try it of course. I still haven't decided how I feel about this getting the thursdays at 8 slot. That is a move I did not see coming! I think it's too high-concept for the slot I am affraid but we shall see.
Watched it for the second time and got super excited, way more than the first time around. I guess I wasn't paying too much attention the first time! Will be there, for sure!
Yes, but Cora also appears (via old footage) in THIS trailer, as I was just adding onto the conversation, there are rumored talks that they might be trying to get Barbra Hershey to reprise her role...http://tvline.com/2013/04/04/once-upon-a-time-spinoff-casts-red-queen-barbara-hershey-cora/
Additionally the same article from TV LINE explains, ”You will see [Wonderland] both post- and pre-curse. It will be very similar to Once in that there will be flashbacks of these new characters that take us to pre-curse Wonderland.”
So we very well could see BOTH Queens. It's possible that the writers may go "the dark one" path with these Queens and call them both Queen of Hearts because there could be a magical transformation, despite that in the first novel there is also The Red Queen. I had also noticed that they have yet to mention and cast "A White Queen", so who knows how they will spin that!??
It seems like a likely prospect, especially since Alice Adventures in Wonderland is a perfect bridge as it is the same era (In The Land Without Magic) as Peter Pan and now we know from the trailer that she and Cyprus have a connection to Neverland too somewhere around this time...
OUAT season 2 sucked........I don't know if this new show can be interesting. I mean, the same writers just ruined OUAT in its second season......I don't trust them.
wow, this looks even better than I was expecting... there is the familiar feeling of an epic love couple ala Snow/Charming, but I'm definitely in.... it's a tough timeslot, but this will be my live watch selection
I'm not sure if it means it was "affected" or not, but rather the writers want to give us a sense of time, but who knows?! -Would be more interesting if it was!
Yes, I like this. I wasn't that interested but THE TRAILER is awesome! Really, WOW! I am thinking that Cora, once she is thrown in the mirror by Regina, that when she arrives in Wonderland, she overthrows the queen. Cool. We will get backstory for that, and I AM eager to learn about Neverland too. Looks like they will meet Hook, and Peter Pan, we will learn more information about all of this. Looks so GOOD!
Yeah, somehow the writers are letting us know that everything ties together and will be explained. I assuming when Regina pushes her mom into the mirror, she lands in Wonderland and overthrows the current Red Queen. LOL
This looks great! I wasn't sure about Wonderland when I first read about OUaT having a spinoff, but this promo looks fantastic! I hope the special effects is better than what OUaT has sometimes, b/c Wonderland looks a lot more dependent on CGI than OUaT did. The girl playing Alice seems good & convincing, Cyrus the genie is hot & charming, and the couple seems to have pretty good chemistry from the little I've seen in the promo. I'm not sure about the knave or Red Queen, but maybe their acting will be better once I see more of them. I hope this is at least as good as OUaT's 1st season was. Looks really promising.

I'm so excited for this show! but fear for the death slot. Wow, Alice looks even more beautiful than the promotional photos.
ReplyDeleteLooks great! Definitely gonna watch!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I've always loved this melody!
This looks really good
ReplyDeleteAlthough I thought Sebastian Stan was going to be in this
I must admit, I had no faith in this whatsoever, but it looks great. And those shots of Cora as Queen of Hearts warm my soul.
ReplyDeleteLove this !!!
ReplyDeleteHoly crap! It looks epic!
ReplyDeletelove triangle? between cyrus, knave and alice? i can just see it. it actually looked good though
ReplyDeleteYou wouln't happen to know the name of the song would you?
ReplyDeleteIt definitely a tad darker than OUAT, I like that! It looks really good, I'll be watching OUAT in Wonderland. Why must they have a long title?

ReplyDeleteHeart of Courage by Two Steps from Hell ;)
ReplyDeleteit's a bit creepy and different (compared to OUAT) than i expected but i think i'll give it a try :)
ReplyDeleteOkay, this looks really good. I'm in.
ReplyDeleteWow, when we first saw Wonderland on Once i thought it looked kinda cheap, here it looks fantatic. Really looking forward to this. Hope they find ways to tie it into Once. I might be mistaken but i thought Neverland was also in the trailer.
ReplyDeleteAlso where is that trailer-music from, i've heard it before
It was not Cora, was it? But the pirates - maybe Hook will appear. And the Mad Hatter, although the only scene was taken from OUAT.
ReplyDeleteThe shot was definitely Cora, taken from OUAT, but the woman who appeared as a queen in red is not her. But we know Cora becomes the Queen of Hearts at some point and that shot of her seating in the throne gave me hope we might see Barbara again.
ReplyDeletelooks AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteThanks =)
ReplyDeleteIt looks cool, but Thursdays? As in the same slot of Zero Hour, Last Resort, etc.? Ouch...
ReplyDeleteThat song is a tad overused though, they used on the Revolution trailer and many others as well.
Looks really promising and much better than Once actually.
ReplyDeleteThe aesthetic is so garish, but okay, I'm game! I don't remember the last series I watched where the theme was a quest to recover a lost love.
ReplyDeleteI have a giant girl crush on Sophie Lowe.
ReplyDeleteLooks good! Can't wait till Fall.
Amazing!!!! Can`t wait to see this new show. I want the same Mad Hatter, Sebastian Stan!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love it already..
ReplyDeleteAs dumb as I thought this was a few months ago when they talked about it, this looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteLooks better than Once. Are both shows using the same writers?
ReplyDeleteverdict : all ABC's show are awesome except for lucky 7 ... so 2013/2014 gonna be amaaaaazing
ReplyDeleteAhh Michael Socha was so adorable in Being Human, really looking forward to this!
ReplyDeleteI never had any interest in Once Upon A Time but Once Upon a Time in Wonderland looks fantastic! I will try this show for sure. This is a spin off right? I just hope that it won't matter that I don't follow Once Upon A Time.
ReplyDeleteThis looks good,the atmosphere,soundtrack and Alice is very pretty,can't wait for this.
ReplyDeleteThis might be even better than OUAT - definitely excited!
ReplyDeleteYa I'm pretty sure there are rumored talks and that one article said we might see different time periods in Wonderland...So even if it builds up to Cora over time, I think it would be a smart move for people who are also OUAT viewers. (and Sebastian Stan cameo wouldn't hurt either!)
ReplyDeleteIt does look GOOD! I'm impressed they could get us this so quick!
ReplyDeleteThe Queen we saw the face off is Emma Rigby who is playing the Red Queen and not the Queen of Hearts. Two different characters though I could be wrong since the press release credits Emma as the Queen of Hearts,
ReplyDeleteI'm dropping the original show but I might just pick this up, looks pretty decent.
ReplyDeleteDamn looks interesting.

I don't watch Once Upon a Time and I don't think I will but this looks really, really good!! Definite bonus having Michael Socha as well!
ReplyDeleteThis looks epic. Was not expecting that. Wow.
ReplyDeleteSure, I'll give it a shot. It looks better than most of ABC's other dramas.
ReplyDeleteOk, to be quite honest I wasn't interested in this at all. But after watching the prmo, I'm definitely hooked. I may just drop OUAT for this one, it sure looks a lot more inteteresting.
ReplyDeleteCould this be the other time that magic came to this world?
ReplyDeleteOh, I completely forgot that the book can be the source of knowledge :D Thanks, that explains a lot. Hopefully the creators of the show won't forget it like me.

ReplyDeleteOUAT season 2 sucked........I don't know if this new show can be interesting. I mean, the same writers just ruined OUAT in its second season......I don't trust them.
ReplyDeleteam definitely going to watch this. I loved the fact the insane asylum it going to use shock treatment on Alice and she escapes back to wonderland.
ReplyDeleteit looks so good!
ReplyDeleteLooks good! Very exciting!
ReplyDeletewow, this looks even better than I was expecting... there is the familiar feeling of an epic love couple ala Snow/Charming, but I'm definitely in.... it's a tough timeslot, but this will be my live watch selection
ReplyDeleteWait, Wonderland will be affected by Regina's curse?
ReplyDeleteVERY strong influence from Alice: Madness Returns by American McGee. Not as bizzarre, but the main premise, down to psych ward is almost identical.
ReplyDeleteAnd yay for me being right- That was a mistake in description, Emma Righsby IS red queen.
I wish I trusted enough in Horowitz and Kitsis to deliver on what this promo promises, but I don't....
ReplyDeleteUnknown. Regina did imply that she could choose who to trap and she did trap Whale, but show never made it clear for now.
ReplyDeleteNeverland has clearly been active so, its unknown.
This actually looks a whole lot better than I was expecting. I may try it.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if it means it was "affected" or not, but rather the writers want to give us a sense of time, but who knows?! -Would be more interesting if it was!
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome! Expected nothing less from the creators of Once Upon a Time

ReplyDeleteWow this actually looks pretty good!
ReplyDeleteWow that's really intense
ReplyDeleteWHO DO WE WANT? CORA!
ReplyDeleteWHEN DO WE WANT HER? NOW! (or at least when this show starts!)
I do hope they bring Cora back for this series.
Yeah, somehow the writers are letting us know that everything ties together and will be explained. I assuming when Regina pushes her mom into the mirror, she lands in Wonderland and overthrows the current Red Queen. LOL
