Very good advice you gave me this morning. There was I thinking I needed to earn your respect when really all I needed to do was to take it. Stop underestimating me, Jafar! How about we start with changing the game? Beginning with a new rule... Do not talk down to me anymore!

Probably unpopular opinion, but I actually think them having a lower budget for Once Upon A Time In Wonderland helped with the world's immersion, especially if someone watches it nowadays. I don't know how to explain it exactly, but back then, especially with Ouat running alongside, it lacked on that department a lot. Nowadays that we've seen SO MUCH advanced CGI, the lack of it in Ouatiw creates a very distinct and somewhat uncanny feeling for Wonderland which is exactly what the world's supposed to be!
I'm pretty sure that a big budget movie nowadays could capture the world in a different way, more "realistic" but imo the lower budget in this case actually helps. In what world would you ever find dragonflies who look computerized and a chess-like castle that looks slightly pixelated? In Wonderland!
sweeney todd au (1/?) — anastasia & cyrus. escaped prisoner anastasia is rescued by a kind young sailor, cyrus, after he finds her lost at sea and nearly dead. together they sail to london, where ana hopes to reunite with her husband and daughter for the first time in over 15 years.

This is what the Red Queen’s crown originally looked like. They ended up removing the spikes before filming. Made by Medicina Designs.
I really love her crown — the designer did such a good job with it. Here’s some other angles of the crown before she took the spikes off:
The designer made two crowns afterwards that were inspired by the Red Queen’s crown. This first one, I really love that it has some pink and white gems, as well as the red. Ana’s colors:
And the second one which is white and green. I could definitely see Ana wearing it in her White Queen era:
Also, Medicina Designs still sells customizable replicas of the Red Queen crown on their Etsy, if anyone wants one.
