bashing bat to its place of refuge.
One of these statements is a true thing.
The other, gross hyperbole.
Thats right, Ive decided this weeks review will be of the choose-your-own-adventure variety!
I lied that was just a funny joke.
I know, I know, Im hurt too.
Those guys are hungry from some meaty work to do!
Instead all that promise usually falls flat.
Over the past three weeks the show has made much ado over the whole heroes versus villains thing.
That seems to be where the bad writing feels safest, in the kingdom of moral absolutes.
Who needs gray when you’re free to dwell in a land where everything is black and white?
Theres a fault in that logic, however.
That is that theyve set up a universe where the most interesting bits ARE those gray areas.
Remember when Snow caused the death of Reginas mother and Regina showed Snow the dark spot on her heart?
That noise was impressive and great!
Perhaps most chilling of all was Snows willful ignorance of the terrible act she and Charming planned to commit.
In real life, the heroes and the villains are often the same people.
Heres hoping this is a theme the show continues to explore in the coming weeks.
