Queen Regina needs pills and therapy

[goddessastra.livejournal.com]

So, my friend and i were getting into a show discussion...one of those nerdy things...y'know..and we got into how we think the queen is just..boring...and i said..that i think she is just a "emo little b*tch who just needs a therapist and some pills" because she comes off to me (in her queen role)...like some teenager  who lost her bf to some other cheerleader or something and now "woe is me boo hoo!"

The disney movie version...i think the queen was all pissed off that there would be someone more fair than she was...so..being dethroned like that sent her into a tizzy...

So...being that we do not know yet WHAT it was that snow white did to the evil queen regina...Why don't we use this post to discuss what we THINK she did...(based off the disney movie or not...)...and also discuss her character. what we like or don't like...lets engage in some friendly debate and discussion...cross minds...and maybe meet an interesting person who shares your view...

maybe brownie points if someone posts a guess and it turns out later that said user was RIGHT! XD

Actually, I'm not sure. In the second episode, Malificent said that the Queen was Snow White's age when she was to be married. I'm guessing Snow White is early 20s whilst the Queen is mid-thirties so maybe a 15 year gap. This would imply that Snow White was five or so when the Queen lost her fiance somehow. She never refered to the queen as a stepmother because if the Queen did marry her love and that love was Snow White's father, then who did she NOT get married to?

Also, I don't really think Snow White has direct involvement in what caused the Queen's anger, I think she just became the figure to blame and the source of the Queen's anger.


Also, I NEED OUaT ICONS!

I agree with you. It doesn't seem like the EQ and Snow have a direct relation, besides the whole "ruined the EQ life" deal.

And Snow doesn't seem that bothered by "ruining her life". Just that EQ blames her for. If Snow had killed her father, whether they were on good relations or not, she'd be upset about and that would make her sort of evil (which would be too far from her pure white snow portrayal).

We'll have to see what their connect is. Maybe her dad just died, and so the Queen couldn't marry him and be the "trophy wife". And because there was a scapegoat to blame (who was also prettier then her) she blamed Snow White.

I actually feel kinda sorry for the EQ, I don't consider her really "evil" just misunderstood. She is very determined to get her vengeance. That's what I like about the character - the despair and anger it's not only about "being evil" as we saw in episode 2. I also got the impression that Rumpelstizkin kinda provoked her to fulfill the dark curse.
The sneak peeks for todays episode look rather interesting - (spoiler start) now we know for sure that the Evil Queen was married to Snows father and he died - but I can imagine that there'll be a lot more to that story and maybe the person the EQ loved wasn't Snows father. I kinda have the feeling that there's another evil power (Rumpelstilzkin?) that led the EQ to the assumption of Snow White runing her life.
