    Well now you’re painting the audience with one giant brush. I think the audience recognizes the importance of Regina, to say nothing of her very loud fanbase. I think Regina is capable of greatness if she lets go of her anger and rage and need for power/magic. But at the end of the day, she is not made up of the most powerful magic of all. So she can be a brilliant queen and sorceeress once she sorts out her personal demons, but she’ll never be the product of true love, the most powerful magic in any realm.

    It’s just a general dispassionate observation, based an interpretation of character performances, set dressing, etc.  I have a tendency to be a little Spocklike in my analysis.

    you don’t say??? 😉

    Not that I mind. Behind Bones, Spock is my favorite ST character (though sometimes Odo fights for that position)

    I think the audience, the general audience that is..not us freakish people, are *confused* most of the time about Regina. She spent a lot of time in S2 going back and forth between wanting to be good and then being manipulated by Cora. They might recognize that she is important, she is one of Henry’s mothers after all, but I think they are wary of her as well.

    Regina: “let out of our last deal”  I smell a loose end. Wonder what she thought she could hold over his head hmmm? She’s clearly not referencing that deal about curse ingredients.
