Anyway, this was just a speculation and maybe we will see just episode or two revolving around Aurora and Philip, but to say that there is no potential is just wrong. Good writers (OUaT writers definitelly are good) will find a potential. Did you ever expect that there was potential in the Beauty and the Beast story after they kissed each other? I am sure you didn't, but story about Belle and her Beast is still very much alive. Last I checked, Rumplestiltskin is still cursed to be the Dark One.

Just wondering; did you miss the part where the creators confirmed, that their Aurora is the daughter of the original Sleeping Beauty? That is the major twist to her tale. While I am sure we will see how Aurora fell asleep; somehow I doubt Phillip be featured, seeing as he was not around. OUaT is telling the story, of what would happen if the retired Mulan met a banished prince, who was betrothed to Sleeping Beauty's daughter.
