Liked
Henry “Bada$$” Mills
– not only did he save the day, he was an action hero! He made so many smart and excellent choices.
– loved his scenes with Regina, Emma, and the Apprentice (*sniff*)
– Your new Author folks! Great decision by the show runners and incredible pay off from Season 1
(Questions that linger, who sent the storybook to Mary Margaret in the pilot? Was it Merlin?)
Alt Universe, not Flipped Universe
– I was so glad to see that each character had a unique story and we didn’t see their characters just play out past events. It made this story unique from last year’s finale
Adorable bashful Hook.
– This is the first time I’ve actually felt particularly moved by Captain Swan. I thought Colin did such an amazing job altering his character. Just the little things, like how he held his sword or seemed off put by Emma asking for Rum.
Regina being classified as a hero in the AU! And then actually being a hero!
– I thought it was so on point for Regina to consistently chose Henry over her own happiness, because ultimately he is the greatest source of her happiness. She would not be the person she is if not for him.
Outlaw Bandit
– This was everything and more.
No True Love Kisses
This finale felt like shipper heaven but ultimately the real winners were families. Regina dying for Henry. Emma becoming the Dark One for Regina. Charming and Snow going to capture the Author. I thought it was a really smart choice for the showrunners to remind everyone that romantic relationships are great, but this show is about family.
Disliked
Rumple trying to kill Henry AGAIN!!!!
-My goodness. Give the kid a break.
Zelena still being pregnant…
In the promo pictures there was a shot of Robin holding the gold coin Regina gave him. I would have loved to have seen that as part as the wedding scene.
May 12, 2015 at 7:13 pm #304685KebParticipantThe author didn’t tell him who Henry IS. I think hero Rumple with memories of doing (apparently mostly) right by his son would NEVER have attacked Henry, no matter what the stakes.
(Scared Dark One Rumple considered it, yes. But he also was willing to sacrifice his own life to save Henry in Neverland and DID with Pan in the end, which, for Rumple, is a BIG BIG deal. And we know he intended to protect Henry from Ingrid even if he didn’t care a bit about the rest of the town besides Belle.)

He still tried to kill a kid.
And he also put Henry in danger with Cruella who couldn’t kill him, but could injure him.
Rumple gets no sympathy from me on the Henry front.
May 12, 2015 at 8:14 pm #304694nonnieParticipantNEAL AND HOOK both taught HENRY to sail…
Neal sailed and taught Henry while sailing back to STORYBROOKE when RUMPLE had been attacked by HOOK in New York at the apartment.
.
.
HOOK baby sat HENRY and took him fishing and sailing many times when EMMA asked him too. Having learned to sail on a small catamaran I had many lessons over several years before I could sail it myself and I only sailed on a small lake.

I think sometimes we (fans) pick on the small details loosing the perspective of bigger picture … in a two hour movie / TV SHOW FINALE there is just so much time that things can be discussed and reviewed..

I am a nerd at heart.

…was he? I thought it was just Regina, Robin, Snowing, and Hook

Yup, the Apprentice was just randomly lying there next to Emma in the street.

They were all laying where they were when the Author wrote ‘The End.” The Apprentice was walking to Gold’s show with Regina and Emma.
