Only Read if you watched all of Season 1:
1) Who is the fairest of them all?:
Pilot – Snow to Charming:
Snow says to Charming:
“She poisoned an apple because she thought I was prettier than her. You have no idea what she’s capable of”I think that was just a throw-back to the original Snow White cartoon. That was the sole reason why the Evil Queen hated her, because the Magic Mirror declared that she was prettier than her. So really, the Disney Snow White was essentially a ‘beauty contest.’ OUAT gave it more depth though.
That was actually the point of the original fairy tale. The evil queen was vain and didn’t like the mirror stating Snow White was fairer than she. The evil queen tried to kill snow three different ways and the apple stuck, literally. The ending to the actual fairy tale is different than the Disney movie, as well. The evil queen is forced to wear iron shoes that had been heated in an oven and dance in them until she dropped dead.
4 continued) Realizing Snow’s statement was a nod to the other versions of the story, my question is whether her statement can fit in Once Upon A Time’s world without being a contradiction of the script.
