2021-03-02 14:57:03 +0000 UTCI love you theorising about what happened / is going to happen. Its really interesting and refreshing to see another persons perspective and sometimes you may notice things that we didnt notice before. And yes you're right. It has the fairy tale themes but they dont follow the stories completely. Like you see the apple is brought back a couple of times, but you noticed there is something more then the queen want to poison Snow White because she is more beautiful then her (original disney story). + I love, love. love the moment when Emma asks Mary Margaret Blanchard who she is in Henry's story. And she says: "Snow White". That moment says sooo much. It gets me every time. Im litteraly waiting for the new episode every week. Im so excited that you're reacting to this. And that maybe one day you love the show so much that you'll do two reactions in a week XD. I know there is a big chance that that wont happen but a girl can dream XD.

2020-09-12 19:46:48 +0000 UTCthe fact that mr. gold creeps you out so much i think is just a testament to his acting, you do see the story from many angles .......ok whose keeping track of liams theories in the yes or no columns?

2020-09-12 08:50:39 +0000 UTCOUAT is very compelling, and it's wonderful to see so many usually 2D characters, have this extra dimension which makes for such good storytelling. The intertwining fate of these characters is also rather fascinating, and it's really cool to see them inhibit both the fairytale persona and the Storybrooke one. Regina Mills is rather a fascinating character once you start to delve more into her backstory. So pleased you are reacting to this!

2020-09-12 05:54:12 +0000 UTCA brilliant episode. The reveal of the servant being Regina's father still gave me chills. I really liked the sort of chess game they had going on between Emma and Regina this episode. And the moment between Snow and Emma was everything. First interaction where Emma knows that Henry thinks Snow/ Mary is her mom. Rumple rocked it as well. Got to give probs to Robert for his acting. And Henry is just so pure you got a love him. There are a lot of things i want to comment on regarding your commentaries but can't because of spoilers. But what i can say is stick to the show and in time you will learn about the characters and their backstories. What i love about OUAT is that the writers know how to write good villains you'll see a lot of layers from them as well as from the heroes. Absolutely love your reactions. Definitely made my day :)

2020-09-12 02:00:37 +0000 UTCI love this episode so much!!! Thank you very much for another reaction! I can't wait for more!!! :) Now... I really love both the past storyline with the Evil Queen in the Enchanted Forest, as well as Regina (the Evil Queen) in Storybrooke too. My favorite scenes being between the Evil Queen and Rumplestiltskin in his prison when she asks about the curse and it's revealed that she must crush the heart of the thing you love most... and between Regina and Mr. Gold in the very end by Regina's apple tree. The actors who play them (Lana Parrilla and Robert Carlyle), play off of one another very well. They're both brilliant and their characters are so powerful and scary. I think that the actor who plays Rumplestiltskin and Gold is very good at being crazy and he's a phenomenal character in this show. As for how Gold may appear to be awake, or remember his real self... Regina's face of shock in the very end has begun to suspect that he must be, and it's clear she never intended for him to be. However, him possibly being aware of the truth, is fantastic! It's helps to build up the mysteriousness around him. :) I also really love the friction and battle of wits between Regina and Emma too. They also play off of one another very well. I think it is hilarious that Emma cuts one of the branches from her apple tree, because Emma senses that the Mayor's threat towards her in the beginning when she comes to give Emma a basket of apples. And while yes... what Emma does here is a felony against the law and because they live in the real world, the laws are the same. And yet the laws of the real world outside of Storybrooke doesn't necessarily work in the same way as they do in Storybrooke. Storybrooke is a world filled with fairytale characters, brought over from the Enchanted Forest. And while no one remembers who they really are... Regina does and so she doesn't necessarily abide by the laws like she would be held to outside of their town. And she's the Mayor, so she can enforce them however she wishes to. And I really love this! It's very interesting, because Storybrooke isn't a part of the real world outside of this town. Next... I really love the scene between the Evil Queen and her father just before she kills him by ripping out his heart with her bare hands. It's so dark and yet so sad too because you really see the pain her eyes doing so causes her. Regina is evil and is willing to go so far that she was able to kill her own father, which makes her a terrifying enemy. I also really love that we find out the Henry is named after her father, as Rumple points out in the very end. It's sweet, but also twisted since Regina has killed her father. But her naming Henry after her father shows us that she really does love Henry in spite of how cruel she can be, even to him. Next... I really enjoy this show's portrayal of Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty too. She is really dark and smartly written, and I love that her castle is in the Forbidden Fortress. As for her look... she's rarely seen with her hair let out at all in any story of Sleeping Beauty, because she usually wears the black cowl with horns which covers up her hair. The only time outside of Once Upon a Time in which we see her hair is in the movie Maleficent with Angelina Jolie, when she wears her hair down. So I really love Maleficent's look and the design of her fortress where she lives in the Forbidden Forest. Oh... and Pongo from 101 Dalmatians is the dalmatian we see being walked by Archie/Jiminy Cricket in Storybrooke. Archie is Pongo's owner. In this show, you will see pretty much every fairytale character from all fairytales from the Disney movies, the Brothers Grimm fairytales, Hans Christian Anderson fairytales, fables, nursery rhymes, and even tall tales that you could possibly think of... all brought together in the same world. This show is so creative and beautiful, and all of the characters are brilliantly casted and amazing! And lastly... I really love the moments between Emma and Mary Margaret. I love how Mary Margaret helps Emma by bailing her out of jail, tells Emma that she feels like she knows Emma and that she trusts her, and encourages her to stay in town to take care of Henry. There are some really beautiful moments between mother and daughter throughout this episode, even though they're both unaware of their true relationship with one another. Emma is shocked upon Mary Margaret telling her that Henry believes her to be Snow White, which sparks a sudden realization that she's looking back at her mother after all these years of being all alone. However, Emma of course quickly shakes off this sudden feeling of recognition, as she refuses to believe anything in regards to Henry's belief in the curse and everyone truly being fairytale characters being real. But I really love this sudden recognition from Emma nonetheless. Thank you so much again, Liam. I really enjoyed your reaction for this second episode titled, The Thing You Love Most. And I'm so happy you enjoyed this episode too. It's fantastic to see Regina's story and to see just how far she's willing to go in order to get her revenge on Snow White, as well as to rid Storybrooke of Emma, whom she now recognizes to be a very real threat to her and keeping the curse alive. And the end scene between Gold and Regina always gets everyone so intrigued to watch more. It's absolutely brilliant! I can't wait for your reaction for the next episode!!! Snow Falls is one of my favorite episodes from this season, so I'm so excited! Until then, my friend...
