How did everyone like the premiere?

I thought the episode was great and they stuffed a lot of information into the first episode! one thing i was confused about was the idea of portals in the ouat universe! I was wondering why they were all so worried about how they were going to get to the enchanted forest. There is a door in the socerers supposed mansion that took Elsa, Anna, and Kristoff to Arendalle! Arendalle is in the enchanted forest and they could have used this portal to get to emma. Once in Arendalle regina could hae transported them to the enchanted forest because the are in the same realm. They are only a boat ride away lol! the only negative to this is they wouldnt have emmas exact location.

Also why did hook think Zelena was the evil villain they needed? Maleficent was still in storybrooke, was she not powerful/evil enough to open the portal? Where did the Maleficent and Lily go? Lily could have probably opened the portal as well, since she contains emmas darkness!

I kind of also feel bad for Zelena, i love that she is a ful time cast member this season but at the same time Zelena is kind of done with storybrooke. She kind of wants nothing to do with regina and really all she wants is to go home! Should they just let her go home? They also never gave her a seond chance like they did with regina. Zelena attempted to open a portal to the past and instead she pretended to be marian? They locked her up and put the magic cuff on her! Regina cursed a entire population and wiped out their memory for 28 years! She killed innocents and imprisoned belle/ maleficent for 28 years! Regina didnt get a magical cuff or a padded cell! she got a overnight visit to the jail and almost killed by a wrath. She still had her magic and she got a second chance. Compared to Regina, Zelena really didnt do too much damage. Do you guys think Zelena deserves a second chance and a right to have her magic?
