Zeven redenen waarom Once Upon a Time in Wonderland awsome was

Once Upon a Time in Wonderland had een kort leven met dertien afleveringen, maar tot in tegenstelling van andere TV shows had deze wel een einde. Nu zijn de meningen verschillend, maar ik vermaakte me er prima mee. Dit kwam mede door de Red Queen die een porno duck face had, en het was gewoon een leuk verhaal met grappige karakters. Any way, de website Topless Robot heeft nu dit artikel gemaakt met zeven redenen waar Once Upon a Time in Wonderland zo awsome is.


7. It Has Cooler Costumes.

As in Once Upon a Time, the action in Wonderland is split between the "real world" and the fantasy world. Except here the supposedly real world is a version of Victorian England, where buttons adorn everything, top hats rule, and men in suits are the norm. In Storybrooke, mostly everybody just wears normal 21st-century clothing. Yawn.

It's more of a personal-taste issue, but I grow tired of seeing so many ladies in the fantasy worlds of OuaT running around in froufy revealing gowns, tiaras, long satin gloves, ornate necklaces and other fluffy accouterment. OK, minor character Mulan (Jamie Chung) gets to wear armor, and Snow White (Ginnifer Goodwin) sports a pretty utilitarian huntress outfit during her time as an outlaw. The design of the women's fancy royal garb does have a modern flavor, with details like long cutaway jackets over tight leggings allowing for more mobility, but it's still feels strangely one-note. At least the dudes wear stuff they can actually move around in, even if some of those high pointy collars could put a guy's eye out.

By contrast, Cyrus and the Knave of Hearts/Will Scarlet (Michael Socha) wear pretty simple outfits of basic shirts under leather vests or jackets. Evil Jafar (Naveen Andrews) has the craziest robes ever, and some look heavier than the most elaborate lady-gowns. The clothing of the Red Queen (Emma Rigby) is no exception to the cleavage-baring opulent-outfit rule, and Alice herself sports ruffly stuff from time to time. But mostly she wears stuff that is less renfair and more stylish swashbuckler, including a purple waistcoat paired with tall gray boots, and the cool cropped leather jacket and short vest she has on in the final episodes (pictured). The fact that she acquires her things as needed from the never-seen Clothes Horse makes it even more fun.
