October 21, 2014 at 6:31 pm in reply to: Why is Hook such a divisive character within the fandom? #286720

ParticipantI dont normally come out into the main threads (because of reasons), but I think POM, you’ve already hit the nail on the head for “most” of the Hook hate within the “fandom”- It requires investment to hate a fictional character for starters (Unless like RG you have outside reasons, which have nothing to do with the character on the show)- I’d wager regular watchers dont have many if any problems with enjoying Hook, Rumple, Regina or whomever each week. Those invested in Rumple, Rumbelle & therefore Neal (because lets face it two thirds of the fandom guessed who Neal was as soon as we saw him & had guessed in S1/201 that Emma & Bae/random dude/Neal = Henry)- through Bae, were already well established fan bases- so ‘many’ (& I DIDNT say ‘All’) of those fans hated Hook straight up no matter what his character, because he was in direct opposition to both. ie. He could have been a Prince/Knight from some far off land, but still going after Rumple- even if it had been for murdering his princess (who wasnt connected to Rumple) & people would still hate him by default, because he’s after their favorite character/s.
I neither loved or hated Rumple (or Neal) tbh (If anything I found his story line & the Rumbelle story line a little repetitive), But I do think most people who tend to ‘love’ Hook, dont tend to see Rumple as a victim of his circumstance.
Other than hate by default because he’s on an opposing ship- which was/is true for many of his haters, I agree with RG- it’s like asking why someones favorite or least favorite colour, painting or music is whatever it is- it comes down to a million different life experiences.
Also I’m pretty sure something like this thread has been done before & the outcome was ridiculously varied, showing by rights everyone should have loved everyone, because there was no rhyme or reason for the preferences when looking generally at basic backgrounds, ages & relationship status lol 😉[adrotate group="5"]surayya
Participant@ellemo78… Yes indeedy ! I spent some serious quality time reading that blogger ( until my eyes started to cross!) and found the analysis quite entertaining! If even a portion of what they predict comes to fruition, we’d be in for some pretty cool adventures! It’s allll good
surayya, I had to give gif posting a serious try in an attempt to keep up with your amazing positive energy!!! Things go by so fast on the screen, having the time to luxuriate in the delightful visuals afterward is a true self-pampering reward! MANY thanks!!! Lol, I was bit like that as I read it, felt like I’d been reading for an age & wondered how much longer I had to go, before seeing I was barely halfway through it lol – it is very Adam & Eddy-ish though, so it wouldnt surprise me in the least if we get something along those lines story-line wise….. Well you couldnt have picked a better moment to gif 😉 … the more whining I see in chat, the more gif posting I do to keep my sanity & stop from popping my top lol, but you are welcome 🙂
@ellemo78 ooohhh, good theory. Thanks for posting it. Yeah, where is @killianjones??? And @mysterykat25 (loved those good, long metas of hers)?? @motormouth is missing from the chat (don’t think she/he? ever posted on this thread) and she was a CSer. Am I missing anyone else?
@emmajones @lumee23 @sweetgrass @polythenepam havent been around in a while either… @Jennifer @CaptainEala @Kelli Adkins @jenven @Aurora @rogvortex58 @moraha @Vanessa @zoeandnimo left last season (along with a flood of others) thanks to all the CS/Hook hate & @rumplegoldfan cant get onto the CS thread- it comes up as hieroglyphics for her … seems this site has been hemorrhaging positive fans 🙁Nominations are open for People’s Choice Awards 2015.

Participanthttp://winger-hawk.tumblr.com/post/100525307548/i-love-your-theories-so-i-would-love-to-know-if-youve I found this theory about the orginal Snow Queen and Emma and Killian and Rumple. I’d cut and paste but it’s just so long! it’s pretty impressive, well thought out (or over thought) but good none-the-less. Edit: Oops forgot to add it’s a little spoilery in places
It is impressive isnt it & yes well thought out 🙂

ParticipantThis is how you fall in love. So quietly, that you don’t even hear it.
Yep, that’s our ship
Beautiful sentiment. Thanks for the lovely pics @surayya. I swear, those smoochies just keep on getting better. This in particular needs to be posted numerous times, for science of course
Haha- your wish, shall be my command 😉
I’m still trying to locate all the hand holding so far… cause, yeah, science 😉
