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.

You win the internet.
So just got back from watching Frozen. Thoughts:
- Hey a Mickey Mouse short. I guess Disney has decided to unfreeze the mouse.
- So we have the O Brother Where Art Thou opening. And I assume the kid is Reindeer Guy. That's not very hygenic.
- The sky is awake? Wtf does that mean? Does she ever sleep?
- So they're playing in the snow with bare skin and not getting uncomfortable at all? How the heck does that work? Elle I assume is Required Seconary Powers but for Anna I got nothing.
- So trolls, and getting frozen in the heart. Can you say Chekhov's Gun?
- And now for montages. All the montages. Moar time skips!
- Wait, how did Anna get her hair fixed up so fast? Also, is it me or does she seem a bit tipsy?
- Now that is one hilariously abrupt transition into a song. Half the audience started laughing when the Love Is An Open Door song started.
- I'm with Elle on this one. You do not marry someone you just met, especially while drunk. You're going to regret this in the morning.
- Let It Go already? That's like half the songs in the movie one right after another near the beginning. I guess the rest of the movie is a lot less musical.
- Dr Manhattan powers activate! It must be a thing for people to create giant transparent castles when they want to be left alone.
- Funny how they don't mention which currency they're giving numbers in. This will lead to problems when they pay up and find out they've been negotiating in different currencies.
- See, Christof thinks you're crazy too. And there goes all the gear. Hope you weren't planning on not freezing to death.
- Hi! My name is Comic Relief.
- Ooh, right in the heart. Guess it's time to revist those trolls.
- Who knew the trolls were Shippers On Deck? Oh wait, they're all Nepeta! Also, they know who the real love interest of this film is.
- So Hans is going to kiss her and it won't work because it's not actually Twue Luv. Reminds me a bit of the failed kiss in The Princess And The Frog.
- Or Hans could suddenly turn evil. That works too.
- Anna: You'll never get away with this. Hans: Bitch, I did it thirty five minutes ago.
- And the real love interest turning back for a dramatic rescue in 3 ... 2 .. 1 ..
- Anna running off to Elle would also count as a sacrifice for true love, by that standard.
- WTF, really? Lesbian incest in a Disney movie?
- Oh and her tears have the power to raise the dead. At first I was thinking Pokemon The First Movie, but it just occured to me that it happened in Tangled too. Speaking of Tangled, shame she couldn't keep the hair. I thought it looked better anyway.
Scoots, you don't get to angst-bomb about a stage disaster until the sound guy plays a cow moo instead of what he's supposed to, and a crazy audience member is running around in the catwalks almost killing the lighting crew.
When Sweetie is the sane one, y'all are fucking up pretty hard.
Rainbow Dash's idea of professionalism is to publicly profess her preferred competitors. Now we know why she pushes clouds for a living.
Not pictured: that high-hoof with Granny Smith liquefied her entire foreleg up to the shoulder.
Why are they going up and down all the background hills? This is the next gen, yo. That flat part next to the tracks isn't just parallax anymore.

Me neither, though after I went through and read all his posts, there were a bunch of similarities in retrospect.
Ditto
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayLightning Dust tends to get pretty violent when she thinks someone's cheating on her, so be careful.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayOkay. Opinion on the episode: meh to grating. The CMC ironically carry episodes strongest when they don't act as a group. The moral is that friends are bad for you and make you annoying.
The Equestria Games are obviously shaping up to be the S4 Gala. Not too stoked about this; I haven't liked either of the episodes about it so far.
I do like that they're finally coming right out and saying Scootaloo might have an actual disability. That's been an elephant in the room long enough, and it's good to see a cartoon address that maturely instead of just quietly ignoring it. Also Rainbow Dash wins some points back.

All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.Interesting... You guys remember that Starswirl Academy Visual novel that was being made? They got a C&D letter.
However, unlike Fighting is Magic, instead of them being told to stop making the game, they were told to just change the names of the characters. A change of heart on Hasbro's part? Or did they just believe that the humanized characters are far removed enough from the show for it to not be infringing on the IP?
