I am betting on a "prequel" kinda thing. (since it is supposed to involve that new winged unicorn. And the only other one mentioned in the story so far was that love poisoned one in the last ep.) Thus it will involve a dragon, and chaos, and that bizzaro destroyed castle.
No matter what it's going to be epic.

I just thought of another good thing about bronies, they've spawned completely new upcoming artists like johnjoseco and that. Whereas before it was the same old same old artists doing fan art of the latest thing and if you didn't already have pageviews you were unlikely to get noticed.

Well it is cause it has developed it's own fandom, groups, and the like. People haven't yet settled on "best" pony maker ever, instead it is just trying to find them. In a year or two more of it, we will wait and see.

In a year or two we'll have popular brony artists instead of the same old same old. I'd much rather have new artists that are popular than the same old already popular artists.

Can't forget about you Vukasin.

Bronies are outright pwning other fandoms creativity wise and shear amount of quality work.
You know what I think, brony haters don't hate it cause it's my little pony, but because we make them look back in comparison [/half sarcasm]

Now now, Don't be a boastful Betty, CannonFodder. The other fandoms are doing their best. They just have a hard time programming, composing, and arting without hooves.

Are we talking about somewhere between 12 and 14 years ago? When Sonic & Knuckles, for the Genesis, was still rolling, Sonic CD was all epic, and SatAM Sonic cartoon was running? I was all "WEE SONIC!" and get onto the internet into some Sonic-related Beseen chat. It was good, but it wasn't even remotely proportional to the Pony fame. That fandom was really tiny then actually. J. Axer was one of the most talented (only talented?) Sonic fan artist at the time.

Or are we talking about after that, when everything Sonic-related really started sucking? A lot of the old fans (J. Axer included) got bored and abandoned the fandom, noticing the downhill slope SEGA put Sonic stuff on. I actually have no idea how the fanbase expanded at this point.. it sure wasn't because any official Sonic releases were any good. Not notably, at least. (Sonic Adventures may have been an entertaining play, but the plot and voice acting was garbage.)

The Brony fandom can be related to the Sonic fandom (even in it's prime) only after you remove most of the talent. I say this as someone who was there, and liked Sonic. 99% of user-generated content sucked badly, and rather than exaggerating, I'm pretty sure 1% is being generous.

--
That MAD TV spoof was nice. It wasn't really very funny at all, but it was surprisingly supportive of MLP and it's fandom. I can't really say anything bad about it.

I was basically talking from my experience in that fandom. Even if Sonic does suck nowadays, that fandom did have some of what the brony fandom does.

I feel like this is gonna end up like the furry board.

Oh god no
but yes
but no
but mainly yes.
No actually this sounds horrible. All it'll take is one Fox 'news anchor' talking about all the porn that will arise from /mlp/ and suddenly there'll be a petition to stop the entire show due to the fanbase.

Something tells me that this is either going to end very well or burn down horribly.
I have a feeling it's going to do both at the same time.

Also nintendo is going to have a pony pokemon-

I'm really looking forward to the Fighting is Magic game. Although, I think I would be mildly disappointed if there wasn't a pony that has a "haymaker" attack.

Man, this thread moves fast when you poof away for a few days.

Though I'm starting to feel that the majority of posters in this thread are getting more...hyperbolized in their love for a young girls cartoon. Some of these posts are just annoying to read now.

Actually I'm just trying to keep the thread going. Normally in between episodes the thread comes to a stand still and then a ton of poster post on saturdays, I'm just trying to keep the discussion going.
