Re: Spike Dies: S2 Spoilers Thread for Spoiling (Spoilers IT
Honestly, I don't care how much stupid fanon bullshit will get argued and drama'd over because of this coming ep, it's gonna be awesome! It was before Celestia's rule, so they might actually give us the origins of the princesses~! [/freaking loves worldbuilding and history stuff]

Re: Spike Dies: S2 Spoilers Thread for Spoiling (Spoilers IT
Maybe its just the last rodeo of the season guys?
Also: while I tend to agree the 'Princesses are gods' thing gets overdone a bit, unicorns are plural there. Meaning it was probably a group effort between the tribe, and Luna and Celestia are just gosu enough to do it on their own thanks to... elements of harmony mutation or royal blood or the bite of a radioactive princess or whatever made them alicorns. I know there's a large degree of eagerness to apply our own caste system to ponies, but it seems while they live in contention, the three tribes each serve a useful purpose that feeds into the overall process. Sunlight and rain are required for growing crops after all. Its only natural the unicorns and the pegasi would want their fair share of the gains they provided the investment to create.
What I'm saying is this play is earth pony apologist.

Know how b'awww it was when filly AJ mournfully went "cock-a-doodle-doo"?
Doomsday scenario: AJ gets a sad song she sings by herself. Much like this one:
Add in her maintaining a tough face the whole time and I'll be dead. Dead.

That depends on what alicorns/winged unicorns are. For all we know they could be another pony race, although a rare and very powerful one. I mean we've seen there is another Princess. Celestia and Luna could just be very powerful alicorns who can raise the sun and moon by themselves, which is why it's their special talent.and Luna and Celestia are just gosu enough to do it on their own thanks to... elements of harmony mutation or royal blood or the bite of a radioactive princess or whatever made them alicorns.

I just realized that if the play takes place before Celestia and Luna, it must also take place before Discord.
So I guess we finally know what was before Discord and the Princesses. Nothing. Just the ponies doing it for themselves.

They also mention that it was before the ponies discovered Equestria though, so maybe that's where they eventually ran into him.

Having the ponies be immigrants to Equestria is going to break about 101% of fanon.

It'd be funny if they are like some sort of pilgrim ponies and have to displace some natives out of Equestria to move in. Just forcing some I duno native american buffalo or something to move out into the desert out west.
Wait a second...

Fjord Ponies are easily the best RL ponies. They're so damned powerful yet majestic.

I personally like paint/pinto horses. Of course, the fact that mom and I own one of those might have something to do with it.

But, anyway, I find it interesting how some eps are hyped, but others aren't.

Of course Halloween and Christmas episodes are hyped. And the pet one was basically a Hasbro marketing thing so that was also logical. And obviously the Discord episodes opening the second season. I don't know that there's much of a pattern beyond that.

Pipsqueak is either a Paint or a Pinto.
We can only be sure by doing blood tests. Sorry, Pip.

Re: Spike Dies: S2 Spoilers Thread for Spoiling (Spoilers IT
Well yeah, okay, in a way the patterns are obvious, but I was I was also kinda wondering how many times they'd do it after the "special" eps are over, and what other kind of eps could get the previews. Though I shouldn't really think about it too much.numsOic wrote:Of course Halloween and Christmas episodes are hyped. And the pet one was basically a Hasbro marketing thing so that was also logical.

Either way, I'm still hyped.

Given what we know, this sure seems like an M.A. Larson kind of episode, doesn't it?
As if there haven't been enough of those this season (what am I saying there can never be enough of those).

Re: Spike Dies: S2 Spoilers Thread for Spoiling (Spoilers IT
The way the spoiler clip portrayed the earth ponies did show them as being exploited by the other tribes. However, this could be a misdirect or unreliable narration. It would be one way to inject drama into the play, if it turns out that each 1/3 of the main six disagrees on which tribe was being treated unfairly.The Ghost Of Ember wrote: I know there's a large degree of eagerness to apply our own caste system to ponies, but it seems while they live in contention, the three tribes each serve a useful purpose that feeds into the overall process.

Do that with a Discord episode, but put it out-of-order and run an ARG to put the episode back together in time for its actual premiere.Whitenoise Poster wrote:They should take advantage of the two week break after this episode to release an entire next episode one minuet at a time.

I had to go on I.E. to load it, and even then it's taking awhile to buffer.
Highlights:
-Lol at train not being pulled by ponies.
-This is the title screen train, Derpy and all.
-YES! FLUTTERSHY WOO HOO NEW YAY?
-Upper Crust and Jet Set visual cameo
-Ohai, CMC. I hope we get a decent in-the-train scene again, but we may not have time for more than setting up the plot
-Whoever wanted a snowpony... ya got it.
-Pinkie Pie takes an opportunity to eat sweets... again.
My body is ready in 9 hours

Joking aside, I wouldn't be too surprised if it were. That second clip looks sort of like the wacky humor he's known for. Who else would just casually have two kids with their tongues stuck to a frozen pole with nobody seeming to notice? Or give Rarity a huge tree hat?Whitenoise Poster wrote:I hope it's a Dave Polsky episode.

I don't really care. I just have high hopes for this episode. If this is anything like the quality of most of the episodes in Season 2, I will be more than pleased.
