Re: What is with all of this "My little pony" stuff? (The unofficial official MLP Thr
Funny little thing happened just a few minutes ago. I was reviewing the TvTropes write-up of the Season 2 finale, and had the full episode loaded up on YouTube in another tab, occasionally switching back and forth to review the scene described.
I had been paying particular attention to a statement in the YMMV section that stated under "Moral Event Horizon" that the scene in which Queen Chysalis, in the guise of Cadance was goading the imprisoned Twilight into attacking her image with destructive magic, implies that she was taunting Twilight with the aim of getting her to
kill the real Cadence.
I hadn't noticed that, but in re-watching the scene, there it was, Fake Cadance's appearances in the crystals leading an enraged Twilight's fire right to the wall separating her from the real Cadance. "The funny" was a result of leaving the episode on pause overnight. We all know how flaky Flash can get if you use it too long. I returned from work this evening to pick up where I had left off, rewinding the scene from a still of Twilight's rageface to play the scene over with the above YMMV statement in mind. Following fake Cadance's laughing face across the room Twilight spins around, blasts the wall, revealing the real Cadance. Seeing the utterly
murderous face on Twilight, Cadance starts to scream "NOOOOO!!" when she's cut off by a screenfull of static.
