I apologize if that's too harsh, too mean, but it's true, because it just reflects what I think is wrong with the show nowadays, especially now that Frozen is going to be covered. In season 1, the series focused on FAIRYTALES and added passing references to the Disney movies. Now they do Disney movies with passing references - if any - to the fairytales. Little Mermaid, anyone? The fact that they're doing Frozen, and not The Snow Queen with hints of Frozen, is really a bad notion for me, one that's hard to swallow. Anyway...

Rumple IS a villain. He's just a likeable one and a core character. I don't think Walsh is meant to be alive, didn't his monkey self die in 3.12 when he fell off the building? He poofed up, I know, which could mean any number of things, but yeah, I really don't think they will ever focus much on the Wizard of Oz story again.

Ursula becoming a recurring character is a really long shot. I think there's a chance we won't ever see her again. As for Will being a villain, that would be really bad. :/ He was so much fun in the spin-off.

As for Maleficent: yes. To everything you say. She is the most likely candidate, because of the movie that's just coming out. I am almost positive the writers will draw ideas from the movie because that's just kinda what they do. Which is fine. I also was a never a fan of the way she was portrayed. To me, it was a poor casting decision. And characterization in general. Maleficent is a very sidelined and crappy character on this show, and I have been waiting forever for her to be given focus, a backstory and awesome stuff to do. When she was "killed off" in the first season finale I was like... seriously?! :| I absolutely want her to come back and attack Regina.

The Queen of Narnia is also a wonderful idea, and I truly hope they incorporate it into this Snow Queen arc. I agree with the Brave and Wreck-It Ralph thing. As cool as the movies are, adding them and Frozen would be too much (I do like Frozen being added, though). I just thought it would be a cool subplot (especially Turbo- just imagine them travelling through a video game world!)

As for Rumple... He's a heroic villain or a villainous hero... the point is, he's neither and it bothers me. Maybe it's just me but I want them to choose. (Although I'd prefer him as a villain, that'd involve killing Belle, which would make me cry.)

I kinda hope Ursula comes back, she would be so cool... but hard to animate. As for Will, I've never really seen the spinoff so I only know the couple of things I've read... it just came to mind because he was confirmed to appear and I dunno how he would.

Was she really killed off? I didn't actually watch that episode (mom watched it without me -.-) and the Wiki (which is where I get most of my info) is unclear.

An Elsa vs. White Witch showdown would be SOOOOOO COOL (fanboy squeal). I think she's the best candidate (with Maleficent. They said there would be multiple arcs, right?) I wouldn't want either Brave or Wreck It Ralph in OUaT because both are bad movies in my opinion, and it just doesn't seem like the right style (I guess that would be the word) for OUaT.

As for Rumple: I like how he is. I want him to become more redeemed as the series goes on, and if he kills Belle, I will stop watching.

I never cared for OUaT's version of Ursula. It just wasn't that good. :/

I don't want the White Witch to have her own story in S4B. I'd rather it happen during the Frozen arc, but yeah, it would be cool. I hope S4B is Maleficent.
