I finally got around to watching the season premier. That was actually a lot stronger than I thought more plot-based drivel would be, mostly because it involves chaos, which we all know rules. My only disappointment was that Discord was not voiced by Tim Curry.

Great, now I want them to appear in the Who Framed Roger Rabbit sequel.

Great as Tim Curry is, (and I never complain about that man getting work or being in anything, he always elevated it) his voice for these sort of roles is overdone. John Delancie on the other hand brings forth the awesome fact that he played Q, which adds a lot of bonus amusement to it all.
Tim Curry would bring smarminess to it, Delancie is bringing jokester qualities.
Aw, but Tim Curry's voice is Timless- I mean timeless. Delancie's voice is pretty sweet, though. Gets the job done with panache, he does.
Let's save Tim Curry for the Halloween episode where the Mane Cast go to the castle of Pinkie's Uncle Frank.
about the CMC; if they get their cutie marks then can spend their time exploring their new found talents. It's part of the learning process too.
lol I can totally see an episode where scootaloo and rainbow dash are doing stunts or something. (dash in the air, and SL on her scooter) and scootaloo doing awesome, outdoing everyone's expectations for such a young pony, and dash gets jealous. :P and then SL get's sad cause Dash is mad at her, but in the end they admire what each can do, and a lesson is learned.:P cheesy cartoon ending.

Oh geez. You've said it. Fanart must exist of it now.
Dear Princess Celestia
Today I learned that pleasure can be one of your biggest friends. By opening yourself to…mmm...pleasure…as you would to any other friend, you can be exposed to a whole variety of experiences. Did you know that Pinkie's Uncle Frank is very...oh yes...flexible? Well, he is.
Your faithful and…MMM...fulfilled student,
Twilight Sparkle
PS: I figured out how to send packages via Spike. Uncle Frank gives his regards.

Exactly. I would also love to see an episode where Sweetie Belle is encouraged to sing in front of an audience and Rarity goes nuts making her costumes.
Well, after having finally caught up with all the episodes, I decided to go back throught this thread what the full experience of this fandom is like.
I must say, this has got to be one of the most creatively dedicated fandoms I have ever seen for anything. The fanart, the parodies, and it hasn't even been a year since the show premiered.
Not that there's anything wrong with this, I just wasn't expecting the rabbit hole to be this deep.
you went through all 107 pages of this thread?! @_@
Yup. The thread turned out to be as entertaining as the show.

The best part is the stream of guys that come in here (myself included) and go through this process every single time…
DENIAL-"There is no way in hell I'm watching this show. Way too girly."
GUILT-"All though that gif is pretty funny...."
BARGAINING-"Okay, one episode for the sake of the internet. Then will you stop pestering me?"
REFLECTION-"It was a two parter? That's unfair. Well, it wasn't that bad, but fine, I'll watch TWO episodes just to prove it isn't my thing."
UPWARD TURN-"Okay, I like _____, that character is okay, but I'm still not sold on the show."
WORKING THROUGH-"How many episodes of this show are there? Is it all on youtube?"
ACCEPTANCE- "I'm changing my avatar. And here's my fanart!"
Every time.
…huh. Yeah that's pretty much how it went. By the 7th episode I realized I didn't want to stop. And I was...okay with that.

Slightly modified for my experience with the show.

Yep that's… pretty apt.
You may know that I am German - which is why I'm taking this kinda, uhm, personally.
!
! The thing is … it's not even as bad as I expected it to be when I read that title.
Sure, the translations are a little wonky, but it stays true to the original AND it rhymes.
Yes, the ending is kinda screwed up, but it sorta works for Pinkie, so I'm willing to let it slide. Also, it's funny.
All in all, the translations are actually good!
! I like Pinkie's voice. There might be a better voice for her, I'm sure there is, but this one isn't bad. Twilight's good as well. Judging from the two words she said, Rarity seems to have a passable voice as well.
Dash, however ... ugh, no. Just ... no.
They could have just used Buttercup's voice (from the Powerpuff Girls), that would have been PERFECT.
Yeah, I might even watch an episode or two in German (if they end up airing on a channel I actually have).

looooool. Yes, that's exactly how it is. Although I too was not "way too girly" but "way too kiddie."

Given that you're the one that announced in big bold letters "THIS IS AN EPISODE ABOUT PERIODS. Are you there, God? It's me, Applebloom."
…
I'd have to say that no, no that wasn't ever an issue for you.
That's an adolescent story theme, which I'm fine with. But on the surface I at first thought this show looked like it was for pre-schoolers. How wrong I was.

Yes, but the way you said it still amuses me. Even… six? months later.
Especially when I still hadn't watched it yet!

I think we can all take a lesson about books and covers from this one
And possibly segue into a rousing musical number about Gaston.
@Sonic:
This is interesting…
What is this displaying again ?
It's displaying a search for the words "my little pony" in Google books and demonstrating that the periods of 1860 to 1880 contain the most frequent usage of "my little pony" in actual sentences by a huge margin.

Okay, I was just a bit confused :P
Here's some Discord fanart.

Pffft, I love fanart with both Discord and Derpy. Either his magic doesn't work or it backfires horribly by turning Derpy into non-derped genius Super Derpy.

Is it odd that this is completely plausible?

A completely plausible, forever a secret scenario.

This would explain quite a bit.
From now on, this is the reason I'm accepting.

I dunno, Discord is clearly a greater daemon of Tzeentch and that's more of a Slaaneshi thing to do.
I didn't realize that Derpy actually had a line in the show.

She doesn't. Not that line anyway. Her one line so far has been "Muffins!" I think.
Doesn't mean fans haven't concocted a sound for her voice, the mail delivering thing, her having a kid, or traveling with Dr. Whooves through time.
… which became my SMS ringtone from the moment it went online on YouTube.

! Did I ever see this?

Jesus Christ, Silver, give more warning before you post such disturbing ponies. That's even worse than the zombie ponies I found awhile back. 0__0

XD at the same time you have to marvel at what a good job that person did making those ponies. totally agree though. yeesh!
edit: omg robby. thanks for posting that. that is incredibly cute….and derpy. XD I can just imagine her rambling on to herself like that. Actually, she's kinda like the cute version of Ralph from the simpsons, isn't she.

But of course. If they weren't extremely well-made, I wouldn't be this terrified.
… And that's what I did all day.

I think I now understand what makes derpy so awesome. She's pony Ralph!
I'm really looking forward to her appearing in this season. Apparently she's a scripted character now instead of just a background. Hopefully that means awesome lines.

"Scripted" as in "in the storyboards" instead of being "random model #237 to fill backgrounds." Don't expect her to talk or have any larger role than before, she's still going to be a background pony… just one they make a conscious effort to include and not have doubles of. She might officially be attached to her 'official" name of Ditzy Doo at some point though.
Most of the fun of the character is stuff fans have made up anyway. She'd lose something if she wasn't a muffin obsessed mail carrier traveling through time that can teleport at will with the personality of a giggly Luna Lovehood.
where did the muffin thing come from again?
where did the muffin thing come from again?
I'm guessing that from her one line of "Muuuffins!" in response to AJ's baked bads.
And maybe she'll have some lines … like that "the horror!" pony whose name I forget. A man can dream.
