*applause for KFC’s post* That was perfect.
I can see why A&E loved Frozen. The problem though is what they set out to write was much worse. Regina, Jones, and Rumple all were actually selfish people who at times have reveled in that. Regina laughing as Marian pleas for mercy? That’s a horrible image, and Elsa never seemed amused by the pain she caused people, unlike I would say, Regina, Jones and Rumple at times. They found it funny or amusing when they hurt people sometimes. I think the writers did intend to originally write them as sociopaths, but the problem is, they’re the more appealing and interesting characters to the writers and a lot of the audience, and whatever their original intentions (shown by hiring Sbarge and Ory, planning arcs for them, for Bailey and the last straw for me as an enchanted rather than disenchanted fan, for MRJ.. )–this is where we are.
YES YES YES YES YES
