In 2011, when Once Upon a Time first came out, I watched it every week. I kept up with the episodes until around the mid season hiatus of season 1 (about 11 episodes in?). That was when I stopped watching and I haven't watched, or heard much about it, sense. However, earlier today I was browsing Netflix and saw that Once Upon A time is on there. I definitely want to rematch some of it, because I think it is interesting as it incorporates Disney Fairytales into an older television show. I would love to see if the "issues" we talk about are still there.
One of the main villains in Once Upon a Time, as I remember, was Rumpelstitlskin. I realized I only knew the story through children's picture books, so I decided to read the actual fairy tale (here). But doesn't it seem crazy that we haven't had a Disney animated film yet about Rumplestitltskin?! It's kinda like Rapunzel. A very prominent fairytale character who never actually got her own Disney movie until Tangled came out a few years ago. I think Disney should do an animated version of Rumplestiltskin! It would be fun and would go back to Disney's roots of an adaptation of a well known fairytale, as opposed to an original screenplay like Frozen or Moana.
