It's really more of an Applebloom episode featuring Granny Smith.

I give it maybe a day after the episode before somebody makes a PMV of the downtrodden earth ponies with this.

I don't really watch Doctor Who, so I wouldn't know.

Does anyone know why Wired

seems to get so many Pony exclusives? I mean, they also got the Luna Eclipsed clip.

Of course the Doctor likes theater!

Also, on the Friendship Express. They want to go for themed DVDs... so, the two part pilot, "Over a Barrel", the Christmas/Origin episode, and some new episode which despite our best wishes will have nothing to do with Applejack.

What's the theme here?

Because they're geeks with a press pass.

Wait, how do you know it'll have nothing to do with AJ?

I don't, but maybe if I'm cynical enough, it will.

I'm guessing they picked ensemble episodes; the pilots are obviously going to be on the dvd as they're rather integral to the rest of the show. Given that we haven't seen 2 of the other 3 episodes, I can't really say what the theme is.

If you're cynical enough it WILL have something to do with AJ? Or it WILL not?

Or maybe the non-pilot episodes simply have trains in them. Over a Barrel had trains, the commercial clips from the new episode apparently have a train, and if "The Last Roundup" is an Apple Family episode that returns to Apploosa, the train will probably show up again.

That sounds pretty logical.

Roundup? Trains? Rounding up TRAIN ROBBERS perhaps?

Maybe they have to transport a bunch of cows to Apploosa or something, but they get loose.

It's called the LAST roundup. Maybe something makes AJ wanna quit? (hey if I were being treated as badly by this show as she is, I'd want out too

)

That sounds like something RD or Twilight could easily solve though

Maybe it's the Last Roundup as in, like, the Last One Before This One? Like, "Hey, remember that Last Roundup?"

So, why do some of the people here (kegi, Fell) refuse to watch the preview clips?

They're PREVIEW clips. endorsed and distributed by hasbro itself for promotional reasons.

Spoilers.

#54520 Seraphem Thu, 15th Dec '11 8:03:13 PM from Delamare from Delamare

except, there not really spoilers, there designed to NOT give away anything major, but to tease you with more information about the episode WITHOUT actually spoiling anything.

All we learned from this was "There's a play" which we knew

Spike is the narrator, new info but hardly a shock

The three tribes did NOT get along, strongly hinted at before, now just confirmed

there was a blizzard, already known

EP's seemed to get the shaft, new but not really surprising.

And then the three tribes unite under their gods to drive off the Deathlord known as Princess Magnificent with Lips of Coral oh wait that's Exalted.

Some people like going in completely fresh. See, a textual synopsis is one thing, but actual visualization and audio are another thing entirely.

I'm interested by one of the new clips. So, magical control of the day/night cycle wasn't a magic first employed by Celestia and Luna. I wonder how many unicorns working in unison needed to be tapped to do that back then.

I have a message from another time...
