I actually like villains who come off as whacky but are actually scarily competent underneath

Fucking hell, CELESTIA gets serious around this guy. That's gotta count for something

Trolls don't like other Trolls, perhaps?

Okay, just noticed this. Discord snatches away Rainbow Dash's wings and then nudges Applejack, saying "no cheating." Fall Weather Friends callback?

That and the fact that he seems to know how much being denied her magic hurts Twilight gives me the sense that he was watching them all last season. Paranoia Fuel much?

[up][up] Or he's a mind reader. Or maybe he's just deducing things based on their personalities

Wouldn't be that hard in twilight's case

... Okay. It's official. Discord is a Knight of Cerebus.

Oh, come on, he's way too goofy for that. Nightmare Moon was way more sinister than him, and the show went right to happy fun times after she was defeated.

[up][up]YMMV zerky thought Discord was kind of a chimera. He's got the goat head, what looks like a lion's paw, a serpenty tail... not exactly one, but he's got most of the right parts... in some places!

[up][up] Why does everyone think that he can't be threatening just because he's acting goofy. By that logic; Heath Ledger's joker wasn't dark at all. [lol]

So guys! Apparently that article that said he was going to be an alicorn was totally false! Sorry for wasting your time.

I am teh interestedzorz in Discord. I was expecting him to be more, hmm, explodey, what with a name like Discord.

[up][up][up]I wonder if the parts he's made up of indicate some of the other creatures that live in Equestria. We know about griffons and dragons, but is there a lion community somewhere? Or deer?

The clip is awesome. Discord is awesome.

What worries me is the prospect that this plot will only widen the disparity between earth ponies and the other pony races.
Bide your time and hold out hope.

First of all, Discord's look is awesome, and the guy who draw a Discord deduced from the pre-screenshots hit pretty close. I always hoped for something like this rather than a dark pony.

His attitude is maybe a bit -too- goofy for my taste, but I can't stop myself laughing on all the adult fans, wrapped up in their dark fanfics, getting a humorous character. Reminds me that you watch kids' shows because you want to feel positive.

Just one thing, if Discord is related to Nightmare Moon...How does that work out? lol. Their themes are completely different.

[up][up] Inorite. Being brought down to normal seems to mean: turned into an earth pony in equestria. If I were AJ I'd be fucking pissed

[up][up][up][up]That there's a sea pony horn. SHOO BE DOO.

Okay, not really. I think its from a type of goat.

Discord doesn't strike me as a straight up villian. No, John de Lancie is going to spend the entire episode being Equestira's version of Q.

[up][up]If AJ could make him buy that, and get turned into some sort of alicorn to even things out it'd be the greatest thing ever. Especially if he had no idea how to handle magic and flying.

As it is, I'm expecting that there'll be other parts of the challenge where they all gain wings or horns, maybe.

I love that while all the other ponies are looking pissed, Pinkie is just standing in the back all "wow, I lucked out!"

Does anyone know if this is the 2-parter where Luna shows up? I wouldn't have a problem with that if it wasn't, but I'm curious.

Excuse me while I nerdgasm. You'll wanna clean up the room behind me.
If you wish to know, you only need to ask.
