Of all the other things, like Sleepy Hollow and the Headless Horesman, 1001 Arabian nights, and a whole host of stuff, I can't see this actually making it into Once even as a cameo. I mean, Soung of the South made it in a cameo or mention by Snow, but even with that, I can't see Jungle Book in Once.

Just like Tarzan, it is too isolated and surronded by animals to be a major thing in Once. Not even Lion King, except for the whole raising up the baby.

Of course, my opinion doesn't matter, but I was trying to see what it offered in terms of story to see if I could persuade myself to change my mind. Well, okay, that what new stories do you think should be on Once? Well, this thread isn't the place for new ideas though I touched on a few, lol. Jungle book could work for like a child version of Once, since Henry is getting a bit too old for things like that. There is no defined evil or lesson for Emma to overcome, at least to me. Having characters just for showing them's sake is a waste of resources. That's like what will was in 4a. He was there for no real reason in the end besides contracts since the writers came into conflict of using him.

Having a boy in the background at the animal shelter taking about adopting a snake will be the best I can see JB being used. A cameo, but that's sort of a waste of money. The only thing that does is advertise the new Disney movie coming out and what I don't want and many others don't want is Once becoming Dinsey's big commercial. The more the show progresses, the more campy fun it devolves into. Sorceress Cora is in town, let's stay on our toes., Now, it's a whole catasrophe's going on? Let's party and have teenage pranks. (Looking at you, QOD) The last thing I would want is it to devolve into Disney marketing proopaganda.

This reminded me of people wanting Cinderella to get a focus when her movie came out. Guess what? It didn't. Why? Because it wouldn't make sense. Anyone can try to make Tremaine into some Author manipulating or fairy wand stealing person, but sometimes, it just wouldn't work with what's going on.

It is the writers' show and the writers seem to go by big themes and on this action/adventure fantasy drama, JB poses no threat. Might as well as in Princess Sofia (well, she has a cameo worth) and all sorts of things like Fox and the Hound and make Robin Hood a fox. I'm kidding about those things, of course.

Sorry about my rambilng on about Once not being Disney's advertising spiel. I have very few ideas on what I think should be on Once. I more rather think what do I see possibly happening, rather than what I want, because what I want can be irrational and illogical.

Note: JB is Jungle Book, not Justin Beiber, lol. How about JB playing Mogwi? I'm sure that would make it worth it for you. XD

(I'm kidding by the way, in case someone didn't get that.)
