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.

Apparently his official name is Snowflake. Which is pretty stupid but whatever. I still prefer Roid Rage. He's also been called Horse Power.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's Play@ dark, really my only issue is them trying to pretend it's anything else. Them trying to pretend it's a real review. Well plus as above, their idea of 'parody' is simply, make fun of it in as mean spirited a way as we can.
Well, most of the other one wouldn't really work for an in show name. they would NEVER get away with Roid Rage
and yeah the butterfly bit was hilarious

Hadn't we already established that Equestrian butterflies are frighteningly powerful monsters? Snowflake is right to be scared of those things.

Speaking of Friendship Is Witchcraft, am I the only one who's watched some episodes of it and then not liked it? I mean yes, both of Pinkie's songs are awesome and catchy, and Sweetie Bot is probably the only funny thing in the whole series, but other then those the jokes just don't really click with me, and I never really laughed at any of them nor did I laugh at the characters themselves {Again, except for some of the stuff involving Sweetie Bot, because she/he/it is awesome}. It's not the worst parody series to come from the fandom {That "honor" goes to the Pony.MOV series}, but I don't get why so many people like it either.

I liked it at first, but the longer it went on, the worse it got. The last one was where I just completly gave up and went the other way, specifically when they went after Snowdrop like that. It had been kind of downhill before that but, that was the last straw.
Yes Sweetie-Bot is freaking best thing ever, and the songs are catchy and fun as hell. Outside that... just yeah, they don't know what 'parody' means and think it just means, make fun of it.
Equestrian butterflies are real badasses. You could punch one and it'd just shrug and flutter away like a boss.
That would be funy to make a perspective flip of Fluttershy's scene with the butterflies as Snowflake has an epic freak out.
As for FIW, I guess you just have to have the right sense of humour to appreciate the jokes. Granted not all of them work, but I'm usually laughing 3/4 of the time.
Horse Power would work. And it makes a lot more sense than Snowflake.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayI think it started out bad, got better, and then got worse again. I think the best ones were Neigh Soul Sister and Cherry Bomb. Also, the It'll Be Ok song was awesome, even if the rest of the episode wasn't.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayI thought of some Fridge Horror involving the fandom meme that Rarity is a marshmallow, while having marshmallows in hot cocoa, of course. Rarity EATS marshmallows in Look Before You Sleep, if she's a marshmallow herself then that means she's a cannibal! I was never that fond of that meme in the first place and my realization gave me yet another reason to dislike it.
On the subject of the big muscular white pegasus, I like calling him Snowflake myself, because of it being an Ironic Name. Although it's also fitting if you think of him as being the kind of muscular guy who would be good at shoveling snow, which can be very heavy if a lot of it is on the ground.

Snowflake, and Butterflies terrify him!
