A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.

All of the usual forum rules apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

     Original OP text 
I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

Well, ah'm awake... I didn't miss much, did I...

Well, the bad news is my USB ports died again, so I get to use the touchpad that moves the mouse again... ugh...

I've been listening to 'Let it Go' from the Frozen soundtrack way too many times.

Ditto. Except I've also been listening to "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?" and "Love is an Open Door".

This "faculty lot" you speak of sounds like a place of great power...

Post of the Day #588

Mouse Trap was my favourite board game.

Is Mouse Trap available in other countries or is it just a weird British thing?

Wait ol' Chrissy used to come here? Oh man that must've been wild....

She kept changing her avatar to blend in. It was crazy.

Also, that Papers Please thing is amazing. Why can't it be a real mod?

Now listening to the Frozen soundtrack thanks to the mention here. The first song reminds me of O Brother Where Art Thou.

Is it bad if I haven't seen the movie yet?

I'll watch when it comes out on dvd, which should be in a few months given the film's popularity.

There are less official sources where a copy can easily be obtained.

Nah, I'm good. They lied about their dependability, were often under stocked, and most of their tapes were scratched.

@storyyeller: I just rented it over Thanksgiving and liked it a lot. I hope to get a copy for my own for Christmas or if no one gives me one as a present, I would hope to buy it for myself.

To respond to something that was mentioned earlier in the thread, on the subject of Derpy being Dinky's mother in canon, I'm ambivalent about that. On the one hand, it would probably please the majority of Derpy's fans, but I have the more personal reaction that doing so would contradict my own fanfic that has Dinky as being the daughter of Golden Harvest and Written Script instead. She's not a major character in that story (so far, she just gets mentioned by Amethyst Star, who I assume is Dinky's canon sister), but Derpy IS one of my set of 12 main characters and I wanted to write my own interpretation of her character (based off of her scene in The Last Round-Up) rather than just copying other people's popular fanon ideas. I wanted to write something that would be about some of the background ponies that I have dolls of, along with some of the toyline-only ponies, and in some cases, I wanted to rebel against the popular fanon versions of the background ponies while trying to stick to what is shown about them in the actual show. (the story is following the show but from the PO Vs of other ponies but also adding some other stories that would be ones that I make up myself as well)

However, since I imagine Derpy as being a Distaff Counterpart to Disney's Goofy, having her be a mother would also go with that because of the stories where Goofy is a father. I still don't think I would necessarily write Dinky as being Derpy's daughter, though, and if the show actually outright implied or stated it, then it would be like the many other fanfics that have been Jossed because of things that were put in the show after the fanfics were written. (such as people guessing about Luna's personality before Luna Eclipsed aired, or stories about Daring Do before it was shown that she is a real pony who writes her own stories).

And where is it stated in canon that she's Doctor Whooves's companion? Is it because of some of the scenes in the comics/that one comic cover?

There are a few scenes in the comic of her interacting with Hooves, but nothing solid.
