Once Upon a Time - 1x02
8 October 2012 09:24 pmOh yes!! After getting my grubby little paws on it, I'm ready to watch.
Some thoughts...
Ruby/Red is absolutely awesome and I still want more of her!!
Regina is still such a brilliant bloody character. That desire to essentially destroy the town to get Henry back is a fascinating thing. Also, her past makes her so much more interesting, knowing she never wanted the power originally. It's a clever way of making the 'evil' character much more sympathic and believable.
Though, for a smart woman, she's a little clueless about somethings. Like Henry. For someone who was controlled by a parent for a long time and hated it, you'd think she'd know Henry wouldn't respond well. But I do like the way she lets him go back with Charming. And the fact she apparently wants redemption. Not sure if I believe her though. But damnit, it makes her character bloody fascinating!
I really like the way that the characters are both the same and different now they're their 'real' selves again. All these similarities, but there's some definite changes, like some traits are emphasised. Like Charming is much more loyal then David, but he's also more headstrong.
Damn Rumple, he was trying to leave. But why?? Also, when he was talking to the younger Regina, why was he talking about their history in the past and future?
And then in the Enchanted Forest... How is Cora still alive?? And sheesh, I kind of adore Mulan, but she's not the friendliest sort. But I hope we get more of Snow and Emma. I want to know more!
