Uh, I'm pretty sure that "lyre" can be pronounced like "liar". "Ly-ra" is a valid pronunciation.

no Lie-ra seems to be the normal way I hear people pronounce it.

I pronounce them "lie-er" and "leer-uh."

Oooh, a dA link sig, how original.

#392404 edvedd Tue, 20th Aug '13 8:05:32 PM from Over there. Maybe?

I always say Lie-ra. Flows better to me.

I pronounce it Lie-ra too.

Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.

I've heard both ways of pronouncing the instrument are correct, so I assume likewise with our little pony.

Roses are red, violets are blue.

I'm sorry to say, you've been eaten by a Grue.

I've always pronounced Lyra's name as Lie-Rah. She hasn't objected yet, so I'm assuming it is correct. Plus, my friends that I work with at the planetarium pronounce the constellation of the same name as Lie-Rah.

Yeah, Andromeda is heading for you. You got over 9000 years until it collides.

It would appear everything I know is wrong.

Aside: I was checking out the Gamescom stuff and it looks like some studio got really tired of waiting for Team Ico to put out another game, and decided to just make a Team Ico game themselves.

I strongly approve.

Fight. Struggle. Endure. Suffer. LIVE.

Chiming in late on the also pronouncing it lie-rah.

#392410 darkabomination Tue, 20th Aug '13 8:21:27 PM from the darkest of the hillside thickets

In either case, I knowhow its spelled. Sing it with me now: L, Y, R, A.

Roses are red, violets are blue.

So I just decided to watch Disney's Peter Pan, since I thought I should watch it eventually.

The style reminds me a lot of Bambi. Can't say it appeals to me, but I guess that's just how they made animated movies back in the day.

Also did anyone else root for Captain Hook? I mean he's The Woobie and Badass Normal. Peter Pan is basically just Discord as a child. And also a playboy, which is a pretty disturbing combination.

Also, also, I am still puzzled about how the walking the plank thing was supposed to be remotely threatening to characters who can fly. I mean really now.

Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.

Eh, I prefer the original novel which made his Moral Dissonance noticeable and treating him as a psychopath. Speaking of, the Disney Fairies movies are surprisingly watchable.

He seemed pretty mean in the Disney movie too. But then again I could be biased.

@dark: that so? i haven't really given the series much thought. how's Tink's voice acting?

Actually pretty good. It's a bit odd hearing voices and a society for the fairies, but it works. It has a cool steampunk esthetic and Tink's a Wrench Wench tmboy with a streak of Twi's sarcasm.

I have almost all of the Disney "golden age" classics. I'd rank Peter Pan as slightly below-average. I don't get the urge to re-watch it very often.

Twilight says you're a motherf***er.

Treasure Planet and the Princess and the Frog are my current favorites.

ah, yes, Treasure Planet. one of Disney's more underrated movies.

I never saw Treasure Planet. In fact, I think it was probably the first major Disney animated movie I didn't see as a kid. I even saw Atlantis. (No, Dinosaurs doesn't count)
