That artist made a few piece that shipped Pinkie and Dan, yet they managed to make it a pretty cute thing. I wish they uploaded art more often too.

Am I the only one who can't load TC at all in any browser? Non of the user icons load, let alone the main chat window.

Guess I'm using Chatzy today.


EDIT: After resetting everything and clearing cache, TC works to some extent. But the icons and background won't load. :/





Anyway, have something that isn't a load of crap!

New episode? That's my cue. Time to spout nonsense beneath a spoiler tag for the first time in 3 weeks, for the first new episode of 2013.

Well, the title is actually somewhat spoiler free, though Sleepless in Ponyville was even less so. Even before the spoiler machine was aimed in my face, I knew this one would be centered on Fluttershy. Before the spoiler cannon was aimed in my direction, I never knew Discord would come back. This sounded like it would just be another run of the mill episode. Unaware of this, at one point in the wait period I go and listen to The Living Tombstones remix of Discord for the umpteenth time, and guess what the top comment is? THE SYNOPSIS FOR KEEP CALM AND FLUTTER ON. Everywhere I turn, River Song's diary is open, and I can't stop myself from taking a look. I heard about the original more spoilery title, I can only imagine what it was. That's My Cue? Yeah, subtle enough. And at the final days, I didn't care, so I highlighted the tags of a few spoilered images. Yeah, Discord with a monocle works.

I just hope there's a song.

Now, to watch this thing.
*Pastes YouTube URL into VLC
Pinkie's hooves: "Shiny! Pretty! Fancy!"
Guess who's back?
What, did Xyro cut out the intro?
"How could you bring Discord here?"
Because endless begging from Equestria's overseers, aka the "Bronies".
Villains Anonymous? Well, he won't be so anonymous.
Necklace, necklace, necklace, necklace, necklace, big crown thingy.
Fluttershy? Yes, she was good at trying to not give in to Discord's magic.
Silly Discord.
Wait, THE Stare? If only Fluttershy had tried that in the maze before she was turned grey.
Maybe the reforming spell paper will reform Discord if he eats it.
A dinner party with Discord? I call this act "Recipe for Disaster".
I will refrain from "Dinner Party Wars" jokes.
Yeah, Discord's not even trying to be subtle about being evil.
Dancing candles? And then Discord burned the house down.
Wait, I understand what Angel is saying. The beavers have covered Sweet Apple Acres in water again.
The necklace is gone. We're doomed.
It worked!

Oh wait, 2000 posts. If anyone cares.

Just watched the new episode and like I said a few days earlier, it was interesting.
 
Avoided most spoilers, but
I did hear somewhere Discord was involved, but it slipped my mind until Celestia came with her 'guest'. Awesome episode, perfect chekhov's gun, the bit with the paper was simply magnificent, and the very end, boy, that hit me right in the feels.

Definitely watch that again. Oh, by the way:

Well played, Fluttershy.
 
Sorry to ask but what was that website for MLP episodes again? I lost it when I had to rollback my laptop after it derped.

This is the linky

I seem to have been bitten by the MLP bug too. I kept noticing this thread pop up in latest posts, so I thought I would check it out. Suffice to say, I got hooked, and blitzed through all the episodes in about three weeks. It is a good show indeed. Though I haven't moved onto the fan art stage yet, I'm sort of in that middle ground, of indecision :lol:
 
Total mehsville.

Lot's of little clever and fun things, like the bit with the book; but when when the main plot revolves around Fluttershy acting as stupid as Spongebob and Patrick in that episode of Spongebob with Man-Ray and it's obvious from the start what he's going to do then it kinda breaks down a bit.

I thought they were going to at least change it up and do a "since you didn't fix SAA, I don't have to keep my promise" thing, and I know that wouldn't have gotten the episode's message across that way, but it still just came off so hokey.




Edit: And welcome to the thread EmptyOne.
 
Ehem...
So what happens in the long run?

What happens if Discord befriends someone else who is totally cool with him ruling the world with chaos? He stopped when he realized Fluttershy was the only friend he'd ever had, and he was going to lose her if he kept acting the way he was.

What if Chrysalis finds out about all of this and befriends him, then she can rule beside him and they'll go totally unopposed entirely because Fluttershy promised to never use her element.

They can only ride on Discord wanting Fluttershy's friendship for so long. She gave up their only line of defense entirely on a hunch, and one that isn't a permanent solution no matter how you look at it.




And I know this is a kid's show, and I'm entirely aware I'm over-thinking things, but given the fact that they brought back the Stare which hasn't been touched on since Season 1 and Discord who hasn't even been hinted at since the premier of Season 2, combined with the "Just in case" bit of possible foreshadowing at the end, I don't think it's entirely impossible for this to come back and bite them in the ass in some way.


But yeah, I wasn't a fan of Fluttershy before and now I'm really not based on the whole "giving up your only line of defense on a hunch" decision she made.

And as for the stuff I really liked:
I loved the back and forth between Angel and Discord, it was a good background show. In fact, most of what was happening in the background were my favorite things about the episode. Lots of little details and everything that were fairly entertaining.

John De Lancie was awesome as Discord again, he really is a fantastic VA and I look forward to more TNG clips to go with the voice. I liked that his character was consistent with what we saw in Season 2, and I really like that they outright canonized that he is totally aware while in the statue. That gives it a considerably darker feel, though, the more you think about it.

And AJ holding her hat over her face when she was disappointed was cute. The bit with Discord eating the pages out of the books and the Hallway-scene-from-Inception esque bit at Fluttershy's was cool, too.


All in all, it was the background stuff and Discord shenanigans that kept me entertained through the episode. Just wasn't a fan of the plot toward the end.

Total mehsville.

I would've been even more disappointed with it if they would've just taken him right back out and turned him to stone. Even if they tried to dress it as like "Don't break promises or you get your ass kicked" as the lesson.

I mean, as bleh as the plot was at lest this one resulted in potential fic material based on Fluttershy doing something dumb. I don't see how else they would have reformed him and got that message across, but the way they did it certainly wasn't a good one.

3 Weeks for a first run through?



And welcome to the thread.

I have a feeling you'll appreciate this:


Which I actually only just found, myself.


EDIT: Wow, this is the longest post I've made in a while.

I can't promise to post too often, or have a proper avatar (or even an avatar), but I'll join in on occasion 👍

It seemed the plot laid itself out fairly early, you could tell what was going to happen. I did like the Angel and Discord action too, but I do wonder what was the point of bringing him back. Guess we'll see soon.

:lol: I had a fair amount of free time, and hooked was an understatement!
