OUAT – What the Flock?

Okay, some people have thought that I over analyze, and this might be the point I’ve gone over the edge, but here goes anyway.

So, in “7:15 AM” we see the storyline centering around Mary Margaret getting an injured Dove (some say a Pigeon) back to its flock. This is the flock she returned it to:

I started thinking that there were other flocks of birds I’ve seen in Once Upon a Time before. Now, I know I may be over analyzing, but I don’t think directors put in things for no reason. If they did in these situations, sorry, but I want to post this on the chance that these were placed here on purposes, for a reason in the storyline.

Flocks in the Pilot episode #1:

Flock #2:

and Flock #3 flying out ahead of the Dark Curse (right behind the mysterious dragon that we don’t talk much about (but I do)):

So, why post this? Well, we know that bluebirds transfer messages and maybe these flocks that are transferring information will fit into the storyline somehow, or maybe not. If not, please enjoy these lovely screenshots that some CG artist worked on for this show. 🙂

OUAT – The DNA of Stories (The Hero’s Journey)

I’ve mentioned Joseph Campbell, and his influence on George Lucas and Star Wars, but I also want you to consider the Once Upon a Time in this mix. Here is a very cool video showing the sections of Joseph Campbell’s The Hero’s Journey in three major motion picture stories;

Can’t you see Emma progressing through these sections? What do you think?

OUAT – Do we see Queen Regina’s Apple Tree spot in Storybrooke? Updated 2/2

(See Updated info below) This is Henry’s playground Castle. Spotted on the left  there is a round structure that has a flag pole sticking out.

Do you think it could be the structure of Queen Regina’s Tree in Storybrooke as it was in the garden of Leopold’s castle?

Listener Ken sent in information on the location in Steveston:

“I noticed your post re: pole structure and here’s the backstory on it. It’s really a memorial structure dedicated to fishermen who were lost at sea over the long, historical fishing period in this area.

The ‘pole’ is really a 26 ft. aluminum fishing net mending needle in the middle of a circular compass rose. See below link to an article for more details …. note the article picture of the needle more from a front view. Also note view of Mt. Baker (in Washington State) in the background which we saw glimpses of when the Prince’s twin brother was herding sheep in Ep. 6 – The Shepherd.

As a side note, Mt. Baker is part of a volcanic mountain range called the Cascade Volcanic Arc, of which nearby Mt. St. Helen’s is also part of.”

Ken also included a link to an article about the site in Steveston, as well: http://www.infolynk.ca/bcfishing/StevestonMemorial-TimLynch.pdf

Thanks again, Ken.
