@Lurker: I can just feel it :V Call it my variant of Pinkie Sense (still in beta).

This totally describes my day [lol]

I was always under the impression that the Crystal Kingdom is introduced at the start of the season and maintains a certain degree of relevance going into the end. There is nothing I've seen that indicates it's purely part of the endgame. The songs are one thing (Why release finale stuff before the season even starts?), and those pictures may have been mislabeled (There's a reason it was rumor-tagged).

So the Crystal Empire story would play out like the Gala? Little bit at the start, a bit in the middle, then the end? Yeah, I could see that.

@ed Yeah, speculation is speculation. But speculation can be fun so long as we don't take it into "this is absolute fact you idiot" territory. tongue

What I'm doing right now [lol]

I'm expecting them to deliver on the Crystal Kingdom stuff somehow :D

Huh, I haven't seen the possible season 3 images yet... Just what happened to make them places so abandoned?

@Apple: Exactly. The middle part would probably consist of quick glimpses of the Kingdom, some Cadance stuff, and maybe some throwaway lines.

One slight thing is that the previewed failure/success song seems to indicate some kind of big test for Twi, and that could be a finale thing, but again, it seems silly to have ending stuff shown that early.

Sisterhooves Social was a great time, a pity the Princesses didn't make time to take part in the event

I've seen fanart where they did.

I wonder what kind of test they have for Twi.

@yeller: I know, I see of lot of that too :D

It's a litmus test. She isn't pink enough.

@Story You should probably click on links involved in discussion before adding to things. A piece of fanart depicting that was what sparked the discussion. tongue

>>Wouldn't that make the Crystal Empire Atlantis?

Let's sue my dream writers on that.

That Crystal Empire position on the map make me think of The Wall maybe crystal ponies need to be saved from walkers?

I'm just wondering if we find out that Windigos aren't so extinct after all.

Well, one of the wild mass guess for why S3 is so short is that it will have more of a story arc going on then the first two seasons.

@Seraphem That wouldn't be the reason for it. Merely something that they do with it. Hasbro decides how many episodes that they get, not the writers.

[up][up] totally agree

Well, I expect them to put twice the love into the series.

I wouldn't really mind shorter seasons if that gave them room to do more with tightly-plotted arcs.

[up]Half as much, but more love in each bite! tongue

I also read Brian Azarello's Wonder Woman in my brother's iPad yesterday and find out DC Comics have a Discord.

Regarding S3: Didn't one of the show staff outright say that the season finale was the first episode of this season that they finished?

If so, that should make it easy for the writers to put plenty of foreshadowing in the episodes leading up to it.

We must comb the upcoming episodes finely to ferret out all the foreshadowing!

Cramming twice the love into half the episodes? Would we even be able to handle a quadruple-dose of showrunner love?

Giving it away? Where's your business sense? We need to slap a price tag on those things! We'll make a killing!

And then all the proceeds go to charity, because we're awesome like that. Right?
