I see two pretty easy ways around the questions of why would Maleficent and Regina both use the sleeping curse again after it had been shown that it could be undone by True Love’s Kiss (presumably on Aurora’s mother). First, remember that in “A Land Without Magic” Regina intended to kill Charming right after Snow ate the apple. So she didn’t expect Charming to be around to awaken Snow.
As for Maleficent’s use of the curse on Aurora, I agree with Phee that Aurora’s line “You’re not the only one who knows about sacrifice” may be significant for that. Perhaps Maleficent didn’t even use the sleeping curse on Aurora but Aurora exposed herself to it as a means of defeating some other kind of curse, which was perhaps aimed at Philip or her mother. There are lots of possibilities; we’ll just have to wait and see what the writers have in store. I’m betting it will be good, whatever it is.
