I think Rumple's feelings for Cora were something akin to infatuation. He may have felt some kind of love for her or, rather, what he thought was love. More in love with the idea of her, of someone else who was as power hungry as himself, and latched onto that her and that feeling of kinship and familiarity because it made him feel good. Had they managed to stay together, he likely would've snapped out of his delusion and left her after a little while. Unfortunately, it is a type of relationship I am well aware of. As for Cora, I'm not sure. Chances are she didn't love him truly either, but maybe more so than he loved her.

the future knowledge that David was able to slay a full dragon on his own because of ANNA FROM FROZEN is so cursed

2:00:23 OMG ITS KE$HA😍😍

I am on my third watch of this this week - I am largely house/bed bound by chronic illness and I'm in constant need of things to occupy my days and Haley is just so dang delightful. I have never watched this show in my life but these videos are just perfect, joyous, silly background ways to keep myself company and I love them as much as Haley loves Ashley Boyd. Thank you for your service.

Even my dog had a blast!!

That cat loves you so much

f isn't a vowel sound. I am going to tell you that. I don't back down to threats.

seeing Lae'zel at number 9 for hotness breaks my heart but i do respect and understand your opinion

It infuriates me the way the show tries to portray Snow's parents as these wonderful, kind people even though they were actually terrible. *Spoilers for later on in the series* . . . . Princess Ava was a spoiled, jealous mean girl who treated everyone she viewed as "beneath" her (so...basically everyone) like dirt. And King Leopold was a creep. He fell in love with Cora but when she proved to be "unpure" he tossed her aside. He then married Ava because she was "pure" and she'd give him a "pure as snow" child. Sickening. Then like 2 decades later, he marries the barely legal daughter of his would-be lover because Regina looks like Cora so he desires her but he thinks Regina is "pure" so he can marry her where he couldn't marry her mother. DISGUSTING. He then proceeds to isolate and neglect his new young bride so severely that she turns to a creepy wizard for help escaping her horrible life. Is it really any wonder Regina hated Leopold? He was a gross creep who married her against her will and forced her to be a mother to a child she hated. Which yes. Obviously Regina's hatred for Snow was incredibly misplaced but since she'd banished Cora to another realm, Snow was the only person left who had a role (however unintentionally) in Daniel's death so Regina put all her rage on this child. And that's awful. But it also goes to show how much Leopold neglected Regina because she was not subtle about her hatred of Snow and any adult paying attention to their interactions would've seen how Regina really felt about Snow. Leopold never noticed because he spent as little time as possible with Regina all while isolating her from everyone but himself and Snow. He SUCKED and I hate that the show never truly acknowledges that. Snow eventually accepts that her mother wasn't all good but she never comes to terms with how terrible her father was. And neither does the show. Anyway...season 1 has some good moments but it is pretty low on my season ranking.

Hot take maybe? Season 3 is my favorite. It's messier than the first 2 seasons but I just adore the Neverland arc and the Missing Year flashbacks from 3B. I love Robin Hood and his relationship with Regina. I love Regina's character development and the way she truly feels like part of the core group/family this season. This is also the only season where I think the split season/split storyarcs really work. ~M

I love your enthusiasm throughout this video but especially when things get absolutely ridiculous! Also I love that you love Regina & Robin. Their storyline in season 3 was so good.~M

No but if you just rewrite it as a fanfiction we’d all read it

out of all the insane fictional character pulls this show could have done, the LAST person i expected was the little girl from THE RING

if there's one thing Pan will do, it's monologue

I love the energy in this video and all your videos! Sometimes I will like. hm. mimic your cadance of saying words??? in my head??? because I think your way of talking is captivating and awesome!

wait does hook have a tattoo?... of Milah?... like a permanent reminder to him, Emma, and everyone else?

that is hilarious that emma had henry do the trick NEAL TAUGHT HER thinking it would fool him

Why did tamara call greg when she was moments from the door of the apartment instead of just knocking?? just dramatic tension , I guess 😂

"gullible man. silly man"

i think Neal got into the relationship with Tamara once learning multiple things that dashed his hopes for ever being with Emma again

henry wanting to destroy all magic is revisited in season 6, im so happy they planted that way back in season 2

the episode with Kurt and child Greg is honestly terrifying

oh my goodness Neal holding Gold's hand as he died, forgiving him for not following him through the portal as a child?? top 10 moments of the show

CAPTAIN HOOK CAPTAIN HOOK CAPTAIN HOOK

don't worry leviathan returns

precious cat alert

thank you for your reaction to King George creeping on David teaching Henry to swordfight. ""LEAVE"

BABY HENRY

"Good news! Emma Swan has successfully brought a GUN to the enchanted forest"

I agree they shouldn't have killed Neal off. He & Emma could've been platonic true loves and happily moved on with other romantic interests. They could've used Neal whenever they needed Henry out of the action because it would've made sense for him to be spending time with his dad. Killing Neal was also a slap in the face to Robert Carlyle who only took the role of Rumple/Gold because of the Bae storyline. He only agreed to play that character for the father-son story and the writers went and killed his son. It was one of the worst decisions the writers made. That said, I adore Robin Hood and his relationship with Regina so...there are worse decisions the writers will make in seasons 4 & 5 that put the Neal thing right out of my mind.

Thank you for reminding me…how much I wanted Rumple carnally

3:37:16 i thought i imagined watching this short as a kid, i’ve brought it up to so many people but no one knew what i was talking about and i seriously thought i made it up for a while. thank you for making me realise i’m not crazy

You remind me of the lesbians in my high school that I wish I had been better friends with

See you in ABQ!!!

That moment where Regina saves the day because she has no regrets, not because she's evil, but because every choice she's made led her to Henry 😢❤ It's so good. (and also hot.) ~M

Back-stabbing hands😃…………………………………………back-stabbing hand😁

Oh hey that’s just a state away from me

I may see you on my way to work! (This is insane)

"Sometimes I wonder why this show ever shows me anyone that isn't Regina." Same, babe. Also that line convinced me to not only watch the rest of this recap, but also to go back and watch the previous ones. Nothing but respect for fellow a Regina fan. ~M

7:40 the only, ONLY way I can see the top working is that in dreams, Cobb is imparting his will on the top, making it spin forever. If it falls down when he doesn't want it to, it's in reality. It's a very dumb detail that should have been further explained in the movie, but it's all I could think of. FURTHERMORE, this way of using the top does help explain the ending. Cobb isn't trying to keep the top up, it doesn't matter to him anymore.

Oh hey I been there once when I lived in New Mexico

Your cat is a baaaaby

this is how i find out theres a borderlands MOVIE??

Very jealous, that’s so sick

I'm in the area but leaving the day before to go to my brother's wedding 😭😭 so disappointing, but I hope it's lots of fun!

AAAGHH i wish i was on the right continent for stuff like this 😭😭

4:21:06 I’m so glad you reviewed the puss in boots show this was my favorite show as a kid 😭😭

I FULLY agree with you about Neal. I was upset when they killed him off cause I firmly believed he could have had a life without getting between Emma & Hook.

i like the goofy reason halsen gives for why hes so large for an elf

im pretty sure jaheira is an elf
