Well I think people are judging too soon. Hasn't Lauren tried to hammer in the moral that you shouldn't be too quick to judge things?

I will say one more thing about EQG for now: There's a particular rumor about it that annoys me {The one of Twilight supposedly dating some boy she meets in the human world}, but I'd rather not talk about it too much just in case it turns out to be false {Though since most rumors about EQG have been confirmed, I think that this one will join the list as well}. Heck, it's not just the fact that I don't like the idea, but also another fact, which I will save for when/if it turns out to be true.

I just want to give a heads up that if it does turn out to be true, you can expect me to voice my full thoughts on it. But I won't bring it up very much once I get that out of the way since, like what Crowfall said, no one wants to hear endless bitching all summer long {Something I was guilty of regarding other subjects on this site, and something I'd rather not repeat}. Oh, and no matter how much it annoys and aggrivates me, I won't be going all "GRRR FUCK THIS SHOW AAAAAAHH" or anything else that would be obnoxious, immature and full of caps. :P

@Ace - Judges gonna judge.

@Crow - Personally, I am not willing to give them that much credit. It would be indeed nice, though.

That's pretty much my last hope for it. Then again the S3 finale was proof enough for me that not even a good writing crew doing good writing can be pushed down by ill-thought executive decisions.

@Marston: My prediction is that this "Brad" guy is a dupe planted to distract Twi. Before she goes back to Equestria she will march up to him and DECK him for toying with her feelings.

@marston: While I agree that Twilight falling for J. Random High School Dude despite her previous disinterest in romance, not knowing him for that long, and the fact he isn't her species would be dumb, I think people are jumping the gun here. We've seen like two seconds of this guy, one out of context hug does not a relationship make.

It's not too early to judge bad art!

Entire ships have been built on less. A hug is practically a confirmed relationship.

The issue is info realeased BEFORE the trailer came out indicates he's Twi's LI.

I personally hope to God he's Shining Armor.

Bad art is punishable by paintball match to death.

Honestly the thing I find the weirdest about the idea is that the Mane 6 are all suddenly in high school. Despite all being full grown adults with careers. Are these supposed to be younger versions of the Mane 6 we know who are also human? Are they gonna act exactly the same?

Plus, y'know, I just don't really see the point of making them human.

@Roy: But what about 'Hey, that wasn't so bad' art?

@Rhyme: Oh, really? I guess I missed that. In that case, what the hell? That is really really stupid.

@Irish: Twi was also hugging RD in that trailer, so I'll just add that to my Twidash evidence.

Double posting because edit won't work.

Irish Zombie speaks the truth.

I'm actually kinda hoping that Brad turns out to be gay, for some reason, partly because embarrassed Twilight is always funny. It means that the romance subplot, if any, is ended, and plus he'd technically be the first canonically homosexual MLP character. Technically, because he's a human.

Or that he's the human version of her brother. THAT WOULD BE HILARIOUS.

Especially when she sees him again and just says: "I met you. Events transpired. You, Mom and Dad must never know. Only my therapist may know."

Jaime Lannister approves.

I'm just hoping the leakers were wearing Shipping Goggles and mistook hug for a relationship.

Specifically so he can be important male and NOT a LI.

@ed - Punishable by paintball to almost death.

Okay, got work tomorrow. Good night, everyone.

@Blue: Heh, don't get Seraphem started on the issue of maturity. Twi went in by herself, so it's apparently an Alternate Universe where a very similar group of characters are teenagers.

well, guys, i'm turning in. see you later.

Okay, as much as I'm facepalming at the trailer itself, this meme is still funny.

I'm so confused now. Is there an alt version of Twilight that isn't around for some reason? If not, how does she just start going to school despite having absolutely no background or family? And if this does become a full spinoff, not just a movie, will it not have a Twilight since she has to go home?

Twi probably has a high skill in Forgery so she can detect fakes. She can use that skill to her advantage here.

Beats me. There is a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment in the trailer (When human Twi is looking up at the moon) where you can see a humanized variant of the group photo from the MLP opening credits. If you squint, you'll see that Twi isn't in it, so apparently she's just not around in this universe.

Well, in a universe with no magic, why would the Element of Magic need to exist?
