ABC's Once Upon a Time - Part 6

[Primal Slayer]

Hopefully they give her a new costume instead of that ridiculous hair poof she sported. They should be able to rip off the animated/live action looks decently.

But so happy she will be coming back, Mal is to big of a villain to not be an actual big bad. If anything keep her around long term as the new villain.

I'm guessing Emma saving Maid Marion changed enough to reverse Mals death.

Mal was reforming slowly anyway regardless of anything emma did

I'm guessing Emma saving Maid Marion changed enough to reverse Mals death.

Possible. I was thinking it might have something to do with the missing year. She was still clinging to some form of life in S2, and when the new curse came that returned them all to the FTL, it returned everyone to their form in that world (Jiminy being a cricket, Rumple, etc.) Maybe it returned her to her human form and she worked something out to avoid being turned into a dragon permanently again.

 

[Primal Slayer]

Maybe, if she returned to normal when they went back to FTL, she should've been able to garner up enough power to keep her from reverting back to a dragon full time. She probably is back in Storybrooke just to get her revenge on slowly but surely.

Well, this is kind of adorable...

The jolie film had to play a part in bringing maleficent back.

I just hope she is treated as a pure badass, someone everyone is terrified of. That and a better costume.

The jolie film had to play a part in bringing maleficent back.

It's definitely part of it, but I don't they wouldn't have eventually brought her back without that movie and it's success. It just seems like the perfect storm of reasons to bring Mal back into the fold: the movie, True Blood's demise clearing a lot of space in Kristin Bauer's schedule, season two showing that she wasn't really/totally dead at all, the references last season to the Black Fairy (like we don't know where that's going...)

If she hadn't already appeared on the show, I'd say it looked a little shady and opportunistic of them, but I've just always assumed that was a card they'd play again at some point in the show's history.

 

[Young Superman]

Regina and Emma are my two favorite characters on OUAT.

 

[Prison Mike]

I think it has more to do with True Blood ending than the Maleficent movie

Me too. Mal is a vastly popular disney villiain. And there's been lots of nods to her pryor to the jolie film

 

[Sawyer]

Yeah, I don't think you can point to the movie as being responsible for the upcoming arc in the same way as you can with Frozen. There were factors already in play that could've conceivably led to her re-introduction to the series. Plus, regardless of the success it was, I just don't think Maleficent was as big of a pop culture event as Frozen was.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Zod... I need some deep frenemy action between Mal and Regina.

 

[Sawyer]

I'd love to see what kind of a grudge she holds against Regina for all she did to her.

New promo here (can't embed it though):

[PyroChamber]

So that pic of Regina and Emma was for a promo.

 

[Primal Slayer]

It was ok, I was surprised we didnt see Elsas face though.

 

[Sawyer]

Seems like the promo was more of a creation of ABC's promo department than Eddy and Adam and the writers. The dialogue at the end made no sense.

"Here we go again." Again? When did we go here the first time?
"Really?" Really, what?

It makes no sense!!! Decent enough promo, though. Looking forward to one with actual footage. I feel like that would give a better taste of Elsa.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

If Mal wanted to strike back at Regina... Would she put Henry in the crosshairs?

Imagine Henry getting a sweet little girlfriend and later on she changes shape into Mal?

It makes no sense!!!

"Here we go again." = Another threat, another villain!
"Really?" = I can't catch a break!

Makes perfect sense.

 

[SuperBatman]

I still think Elsa won't be seen as the Villain in this half season.

 

[WorthyStevens]

"Here we go again." = Another threat, another villain!
"Really?" = I can't catch a break!

Makes perfect sense.

"Really?" = Even her?

 

[Sawyer]

I still think Elsa won't be seen as the Villain in this half season.

I think we all came to that conclusion a while back...
