MLP:FiM Season 2 Discussion (WARNING! Spoilers Within!)
« on: September 15, 2011, 12:43:02 pm »
Since the new season starts this saturday I thought I'd go ahead and get this thread started however it will remain locked untill saturday morning, at which time I will open it and we may all begin our ravenous talk of the start of the new season.

The new episode will be showing in just a few hours from now. Is everypony excited? Are we all biting at our hooves/nails/etc?

Season Two of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic!
Everything you want to discuss about the show goes here from the cast to how busy the gardners must be maintaining that hedgemaze! :o

No kidding! That was a twist. Also, Discord is Q to a T. Even if I didn't already know it was the same actor, you can't help but peg the two. You'd think they had the Star Trek TNG writers making Discord.

Good choice of John de Lancie as voice actor for Discord. :) He's really great as a mischief maker.  :D First Q, then Discord.

Plus much like Q he appears in flashes of white light, plus he even snaps his fingers!!! :D

But oh my god... He corrupted Fluttershy by FORCE! The most dependable of ponies and he just.... OH POOR FLUTTERSHY!!! :'(
Epic episoe to star off with, Rainbow Dash fearring that Cloudsdale would fall apart without her. Such a cool point to bring up.

That's it. I'm not letting you deny any more. You're a brony. Welcome to the herd. *Shoves a cutie mark on your flank*

Anywho, back to the episode at hoof. It... has left me speachless. The crew wasn't kidding when they said Season 2 was gonna hold a lot of surprises.

Oh yeah, FLUTTERSHY! Man, I loved how she was so clueless, making Discord pissed off. Just read Kalo's new post.


Now I'm speachless again. :P

I love how Pinkie is all "Guys THINK about this for a second! Eternal chaos means we have chocolate rain, CHOCOLATE RAIN!" :P Oh Pinkie... You'd hand the devil your soul for a lifetime supply of candy wouldn't you? :(

And yeah... Kobuk is certainly a Brony. There is no denying it now. :D

God this episode.... I'm full of so much SQUEE right now there is no ~yay~ quiet enough to describe my joy.

EDIT: oh yeah and then whe the elements are gone Pinkie is all. "Oh well. If you need me I'll be in a chocolate puddl with a giant swizzle straw!"

Like...Oh well, the world is doomed but we have chocolate rain so I'm not mad!

Okay, another great episode. I just wish they would have given us a full hour season opener >.>
But oh well, just have to wait now.

I thought AJ was surprisingly weak when she went gray. I would think it would have taken a bit more than that to get to her? But in general, I like how she's obviously still not comfortable with or used to lying at all.
Also, RD's loyalty basically just switched from her friends to her home, though the reason was a bit egocentric. But messing with all their personalities like that just makes me appreciate them even more.

I'm curious to see how much fan material we see in the next week based solely off this episode now.

I like how Rarity tries to resist Discord's attempts to mess her up.

I'm curious to see how much fan material we see in the next week based solely off this episode now.
Me too, especially since a ST:TNG/MLP fan video showed up not long after the Discord teaser came out.

Oh well... The episode is done and so is its repeat.... Now we all have to sufer through a week till the next episode and the conclusion...

Speculation time!
I'm hearing a lot of talk about how people think the CMC will have a large role in the resolution of this story. Thoughts or opinions? This could potentially be a great learning opportunity for those three (could we see CMC cutie marks by the end of the next episode?). Also like how they were in this episode without a single mention of looking for their cutie marks.

More realistically though, Twilight will somehow have to help snap them all out of their gray-ness so they can work as a team again. She at least has her magic back now... but I doubt this will be as simple as a spell (already shown that her spells don't work against Discord's shenanigans).

Oh, also... Derpy confirmed in season 2. Missed it when watching the first time due to poor video quality.

I never said or claimed to be a brony. I'm just a fan of actor John de Lancie and I like his style of humor and wit ever since he appeared as Q on STNG.

Just finished watching it on the YouTubes...that was pretty fun.  Can't wait to see what happens!  I'll watch it again on the 12:30pm replay Monday on the big screen.

I've now officially drawn my pony and cutie mark.  Yeah, yeah, I know...welcome to the herd...you've officially got me.  ;)

Welcome Indeed. I think you'll enjoy it here. :)

*Looks over at Kobuk enjoying the chocolate rain*
Do I need to send welcomes to you as well Kobuk? Perhaps by now you've developed a Mountain Dew cutie mark? Or maybe it has more to do with care and keeping of a fursuit?
