Edward Kitsis Adam Horowitz quotes from Comic-Con Interview:

‘we approach everything as fans, what would we want to see?’


‘Snow white came out in 1937 which was the depression and this is 
a show about hope, so when you look around in the economy today and the mood of the world I feel like fairy tales are great , they're abut hope and change’


‘If you are going to take away a happy ending, who has a happier ending than snow white?’


‘We're not interested in telling you the fairy tales, were interested in telling you the bits you didn't know’


‘something unique that's never really been done before,’
