(Anonymous) 2012-10-21 12:26 am (UTC)(link)If you truly think that, chances are you're a very shallow person. Villains are not clear-cut or obviously evil. Some are, sure, but many aren't and that's where motive comes in. Villains have all different kinds of motive, not just 'lol let's be evil'. Regina's motive was revenge. She wanted revenge on her mothers, Snow's dad, Snow, and eventually everyone. Everyone.
Yes, she wanted to be loved, too, but that was tainted by everything else she's done. She has still destroyed lives over it. Repeatedly. She has murdered people over it. Repeatedly. Just because all she ever wanted the entire time was a ~hug~ doesn't sweep that away. She is still a villain.
Do I think she can redeem herself? Sure, why not, but redemption is a long, hard road. It isn't and shouldn't be easy, from a good narrative standpoint anyway.
