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

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!

[up]I personally think so. It's way better then all the other hit comedies of 2012 at least, and I thought it was hilarious.

Even if you haven't seen the original show?

Yes, as I never saw the original show either.

I'd never even heard of the show when I saw the movie and I thought it was really funny.

I also sort of shared the main character's reaction of "man, I'd have done so much better in high school if I'd gone a few years later."

So one thing that's been on my mind is this: Given what happened with Jan Animations, I'm worried that Ask Fluffle Puff {Which also has youtube videos} will be the next Cease And Desist victim. Is there any chance that this might happen in the future?

So I'm home now and am looking at the rules for Pony RPG. The spell qualifications seem a bit convoluted, especially if you're planning to go with a 50 point limit.

@ official Japanese Aria dubs

Those are quite good! The best part was Chrysalis's second verse in the first one. Cholls, man.

@Mars: Personally, I think that Flufflepuff isn't quite popular enough, not to mention that it's distinct enough from the show that it shouldn't be a problem. The main reason that the channel got shut down is because the animation is so show-accurate that it could be mistaken for official product, which Flufflepuff definitely can't.

Well if someone isn't familiar with the show, they might think Fluffle Puff is an actual character.

Yeah, Jan made actual Flash puppets for the characters, so the form of animation was pretty much exactly the same as used for the show itself.

...does this mean he might have to shut down Ask The Crusaders, as well?

That's a comic, not an animation, so I think that's probably a bit safer.

Well my library's missing copy of Kikis Delivery Service magically turned up so I can finally watch it now.

@marston: We are, for the moment, safe. The shadowed ones, who's names may only be spoken from the safety of an empty grave, rise but sparingly to wrap their vile tendrils around an unsuspecting fan project and drag it screeching into the abyss. Once there they shall feast, growing fat off the anguished cries of lost potential. For now they sleep, content but fitful, awaiting the moment when our guard is lax to strike once more.

At least the good news is that the C&D wasn't part of a deliberate policy on Hasbro's part.

Well, that's the closest thing I'll get to a form hope in regards to that subject, so I'll take it.

In other news, I got a really adorable Twibat avatar. I love bat ponies.waii

Yeah, apparently the studio VP wasn't even aware of it, so chances are it was just a lawyer who smacked it by default because with any other franchise that's what they're supposed to do.

And now I must sleep.

Have to wonder if Sapphire Shores would have been really so judgmental as to ruin Rarity's life.
Sapphire doesn't strike me as the type to deliberately ruin anyone's life. However, since she's established to be a perfectionist, it's entirely possible that she'd fire Rarity over the headpiece Sweetie sabotaged. Though I think it's more likely that she'd let Rarity fix the headpiece after it fell apart... but the next time she needed outfits for a show, she'd seek out a different dressmaker.

But pausing her show to mock Rarity on-stage? That's Diamond Tiara levels of dickery, which I'm sure Sapphire would only sink to in Sweetie Belle's imagination.

What first tipped me off that the future couldn't be real was when Fluttershy shouted "Make me some dresses!"

The Sapphire Shores part wasn't, but I could totally see Rarity's side coming true. :P

You don't think Fluttershy would try that in a desperate attempt to get Rarity to do what she used to love, and break out of her downward spiral?

Would it even really be all that hard to fix? All the pieces are still there, she just needs to put them back together and stitch it up.

A piece's first impression counts quite a bit.
