What is with all of this "My little pony" stuff? (The unofficial official MLP Thread)

I saw an episode of my little pony.

....eh, I don't feel the bronyness that everyone else does

If it was the first one, then I wouldn't be surprised.

Usually it takes the first 5.

I really hated the first two, and it get's so much better from the third.

They do indeed, but, like I said, I've never seen Cerberus portrayed as a bulldog, so it really caught my attention. I'd say it was a rather good choice of breed. Even though dobermans/rottweilers/German shepards are more thought of as guard-dogs.

At least it wasn't a three headed chihuahua.

Neither did I at first. Then I started shooting up friendship.

It'd be pretty dark for a kid's show.
Even if it exists not watered down I doubt they'll ever expand on it and we'll never find out.

We have roaming monsters ala dragons, manticores, ursas and cockatrices. Everypony is under no illusions as to how dangerous these creatures are and seem to fear them appropriately. Further, the sight of a pony killing a wild animal (Fluttershy "fighting" the bear) didn't faze Twi, she was more astonished that FS had found courage rather than anything else (remember she didn't see the afterwards).

The concept of Civil war is not foreign to them either, as noted by the formation of Equestria and as suggested by Twi herself in the recent episode. Added to which there is almost definitely a good reason that nopony ventures far into the everfree forest, and the need to have a military presence (The Equestrian Guard).

There is definitely an underlying darker side to this world, and given the potential we've already seen for destruction, death and evil magic, I would not be at all surprised to learn of the existance of Hell given the casual reference to Tartarus and the appearance of Cerberus himself. Even if, as you say, none of these things are ever directly referenced.

No wonder why for all we know luna was the only one to try and usurp the crown(discord doesn't count cause he just wanted to do stuff for shits and giggle), cause in all probabilty celestia's reign compared to other countries and other periods of time must be far more peaceful relatively.

*edit*
Guess what internet famous person is a brony?

I'm loving the amount of Youtube material MLP is generating - Youtube Poops, G Major edits, voice overs...I just faved a clip of Luna during Nightmare Night with a Galadriel voiceover, where she spazzes out when Frodo offers her the Ring. Awesome.

a lot of fans out there seem to be all "metal gear solid reference", and I'm just thinking no, not really. Iffy connection at best. There is a very clear Kurt Russel "Escape From New York" reference though. Future Twilight looked like Snake Plisskin, not Solid Snake.

It was a decent episode. Twilight was ready to fight off a giant 3-headed dog, and then she went to hell and back. She's a tough unicorn.

Well there's been fanart of her both as solid snake and as from "escape from new york". I'm enjoying both cause they're both badass.

Drove up through McDonalds drive through.
See pinkie pie smiling at me.
Derpface.

Yea, McDonalds has MLP toys for their happy meal. Also, Transformers for freaks non-MLP fans...

I don't know how good they are but I would feel SO awkward going in and asking for one...

Half tempted to order a happy meal to get a pinkie toy. And I want a shamrock shake.

They're decent.

I wish I could buy one, but I have no money right now.

Hey, I didn't notice that. I never saw the MGS thing, but you're right, he does look like Snake Plisskin. Man, those Escape From movies were terrible :p

A nearby Superstore just received Friendship Express DVDs with their Easter Kid's DVD displays. How convenient, and cheap for a new release, so I picked one up. Not so fond of these compilations when I'd much rather have a full season package, but for the sake of it having that one original episode with Derpy intact, I had to acquire it.

Lyra is now canon, they changed her name to "Lyra Heartstrings".
The blindbag pony is just a recolor of twilight, but oh well.

Oh really?

This pleases me.
I love Hasbro, even though they can't make show accurate toys to save their lives.

My friend told me about it Saturday night. She and a few other friends went on an adventure Saturday night to McDs. They only had Fluttershy and Twilight. We convinced employees to watch the show. I asked 1 women if she ever watched Power Puff Girls & she said yes. When I told her about the connection & I struck gold. It was a fun night & I got the 2 ponies they had. Win night is win.

For a smart pony, Twilight is really fucking stupid.


Kind of reminds me of Jimmy Neutron. Somehow able to create massive amounts of tech out of fucking nowhere, yet fails to comprehend even the most basic consequences of his actions.
