Him having a love interest makes me laugh. Who the hell would want to be with someone that psychotic? It's like expecting Voldemort to have a wife aside from Nagini.

I seriously stand by my statement on Peter. He's a network Joffrey, he has no sexuality and until now, I really did think they made him like this as a metaphor of "Peter Pan Syndrome".

Now? He looks like Ted Bundy, Paul Fernando and every other famous, creepy nutcase. Peter could have easily beaten Wendy, but ABC won't let it get worse than that.

I don't get why they had no happy middle ground. He didn't need to have a sob story, but planning your great-grandson's murder? Trapping your own child in a box? WTF?!

Yeah, I guess so too

I actually wanted him to have a relationship with Wendy before we learned how he was using her, and before we learned he isn't really Peter Pan... Well not the one we know usually (he's not a kid at all...)

I definitely agree that he has no sexuality

He must have had some though since he got Rumple ^^

I know right

That feels like so horrible things to do... It's hard to imagine he's human and even harder to imagine he's anyone's father, at least for me

I only watched the first movie, creeped me out totally

I didn't know that was the reason the poor woman in the first movie turned into the demon. Peter definitely feels like a demon now!

Lovely art, though, totally not true on OUAT since "Peter Pan" was Malcolm first and he definitely had already grown up

I love the show's villainous take on Peter Pan (especially with the revelations provided by this past week's episode).

There also seems to be this desire/expectation among the fans that Adam and Eddy are beholden to giving us straight-up translations of the characters/stories they utilize despite the fact that they haven't done so to date with any of the characters they've used.

The things they've done with the Peter Pan character are, in the end, no different or drastic than the things they've done with other characters, and yet I don't see a whole lot of complaining going on with regards to the ways they've 'twisted' said other characters.

I don't know about that, I loved the idea of Peter being the "Big bad" since the beginning, so this did not bother me at all

The only thing bothering me is that he's not Peter Pan at all anymore now, he's lost all the traits of the characters that made him compelling (IMO). He's an adult, not a child.

I doubt anyone wants straight up translations from the characters/stories utilized but I think people just don't like when characters are changed so drastically that you wouldn't even recognize them except because they have the same name.
Some characters have been preserved, such as Ariel...

Well, you don't look into the right places because I've seen complaints about the show and some of its twists...
