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!

@Kyler: My guess is that he means that it's overused as a setting/time period in media, which honestly has a pretty good basis. There are lot of movies/video games/books that deal with WWII in comparison to other wars.

Post of the Day #782

We don't know enough details about just what went down in the fight with Sombra to draw any real conclusions from it about.. anything.

And Tia reaction didn't need to have anything to do with Sombra, but simply wanting to make sure the Empire didn't disappear again, or get taken over by some other force before they could find a way to stabilize it.

That had to be the most ridiculous horror premise I've ever seen, and yet I'm going to have trouble sleeping tonight.

I came up with the idea this morning for a killer science museum where the exhibits kill everyone who doesn't donate.

how does a historical event become "overrated"?

I think that's the joke. Though I'm not positive. It could also be this.

My guess is that he means that it's overused as a setting/time period in media, which honestly has a pretty good basis.

History has a nasty habit of repeating for those who refuse to learn from it.

Notably Celestia took steps to ensure all the stuff she sealed away or defeated a milennium ago wouldn't be able to make encore performances in the future. No Round 3s here. (Sombra: nuked by Crystal Heart Nova. Discord: reformed, more thoroughly so after he gets backstabbed by Tirek and provides the Final Key for Rainbow Power. Tirek: Banished and now imprisoned more securely in his place of banishment - HAH.)

(Although I bet Luna now has a therapist or personal councillor to help keep her company!)

Only one potentially at large now is Chrysalis and she got blasted into IDW comics canon, unless she returns for Round 2 in Season 5.

Not to mention such a terrible way to end the series finale.

I mean really, Japan and America were ready to go all for nothing as the emperor has his last campaign, and then boom Americans chuck a few atomic bombs. Deusex Machina much?

And the Cold War was straight up Seasonal Rot, multiple seasons of tensions with barely any actual progress.

@Ace: Well, it's not like anyone has, unfortunately.

Dark: They just don't make wars like they used to.

Great. Now I want someone to pay and/or bribe some network to start "World War: the Animated Series".

Sure is Metal Gear in here.

Still amused that Belldandy and The Joy voiced Celestia in Japan's dub.

The special effects are a step up to be sure, but the writing's taken a sharp decline in quality.

May not have been as visually appealing, but things were better in the first few arcs with sword to sword combat and sheer strategy to win the day. That Archamedes was a fan favorite for a reason.

And Alexander was one of the first big Ensemble Darkhorses. He got so much popularity they made him from a Masadonian Chieftain to a badass crazy enough to get to India.

The 'My Little Pony' arc where all those dudes discovered ponies was kind of cute, then it kinda got weird, and now we shift between the two every so often.

wow I didn't that was scary enough to affect zombies.

You kidding? Claustrophobia is one of our weaknesses. That's why you never see a zombie who's content just lying in a wooden box six feet under.

Then explain the zombie clown car closets in L4D. I mean, they had to get in there on their own before deciding to all burst out at once, right?

I feel sorry for my brethren in those games. I've heard rumors. The AI Director makes them do... horrible things, like crowding into a tiny closet to provide a cheap scare.
