Kitsis(Horowitz mentioned an alternate ending, with an upcoming iconic Disney character they'd want to play about, In this thread, I'd like to revise some characters that might come. Do notice I'm leaving out animal based movies since they're more about "wrong actions" like skinning (101 Dalmatians), bullying/animal abuse (Dumbo) or hunting (Bambi) and they also mentioned they wanted misunderstood characters. So, here's a revision list:

a. Snow White. Unless they pretend to introduce Snow's great great-aunt, I hope there are not more relatives. Unless they introduce Charming's father. Why would he accept to give in one of his sons instead of working hard, really hard?

b. Pinocchio. The only character left on his story seems to be Stromboli, which would be very interesting, being a pupeteer, pulling the strings from backstage. My guess? He's Rumple. Remember he kept Gepetto's parents. But, unless this story ties with S4 problem, I don't see this coming.

c. Cinderella. Remember how Anastasia's mother mentioned the prince pereferred her sister over her? Is Anastasia actually Cinderella's step-sister? This could be interesting, and a good tie to Storybrooke.

d. Peter Pan. What ever happened to the Lost Boys? Were they adopted by Blue's nuns? We know Wendy returned to England with her brothers, but, what about the others? And Tink?

e. Sleeping Beauty. I thought Maleficent was killed by Emma during S1. So, unless she had magically transformed into a bug... I wouldn't bet for her return, not beyond flashbacks.

f. The Sword in the Stone. "Everyone knows the Sword is in Camelot", said Rumple. We already saw Lancelot. Any chances we could  see Merlin? Merlin's power could be really dark and unpredictable (and he can time travel). Or maybe Madam Mim's.Or Morgana's. Arthurian literature is full of possibilities.

g. The Jungle Book. Unless Shere-khan or Kaa can transform into humans, like the Jabberwocky, I don't see much of a point in here.

h. Aladdin. Was Sidney Glass Aladdin's Genie? Or was it an entirely different Genie? Was it one of Cyrus' brothers? And where's Jasmine?

i. Pocahontas. This is the one I'm less confident. So, maybe they'll use this toy as the backstory of something else, as they did with Rapunzel.

j. Hunchback of Notre Dame. Now this is interesting. Storybrooke needs gypsies. Yeah -sarcasm-

k. Hercules. This might actually not be so far from the apple-tree. Remember King Midas? well, he was part of the Greek mythology. Just as Hercules.

l. Mulan. Unless they plan to make a love triangle with Aurora, let her be in the Enchanted Forest.

m. Tarzan. Would be interesting. His movie does have the family theme, but how would it fit Storybrooke?

n. The Princess and the Frog. Remember that dark uncontrollable magic? What's more uncontrollable than dark vudu? I can see Facilier coming out of that urn, engulfed in a purple mist.

o. The Rescuers. I was doubting about this one until I noticed a conection: Madame Meduse used Penny to retrieve a diamond from a well. What if Emma was in bad homes when she was young? Would she be with her at any point?

p. Lilo and Stitch. Does Storybrooke need aliens? Well, in trailers, Stitch did mess up with Belle's ball scene, didn't it? Could be hilarious. And we've seen weirder things.

I also left out less popular/iconic movies like Rescuers down Under, Atlantis and the Treasure Planet. I also left out Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars movies. I loved princess Leia's pun, but I don't think Jedi's will invade Storybrooke anytime soon.

So, what do you think? Any character you'd like to see next season?
