I'm skipping both this thread and this episode until Part 2 comes out, then I'm watching them both back to back.

Do you think Discord would be open to letting other High ranking trolls rule with him? Cuz I'm kind of imagining a larger scale Rainbow Dash/Gilda relationship between Celestia and Discord. At least in some minor respects

Okay, here's some WMG.

  • Celestia and Discord ruled together at one point.
  • Celestia and Discord knew each other when they were younger.
  • Discord trained Celestia at one point (which was hinted at "being disappointed how she turned out")

I'm only one to see pararel between Celestria/Discord relations and Vorlons/Shadows from B5?

Or I just whant compare MLPFIM to another Sci Fi show?
They are like the others. Strange, hideous, resisting, fighting. Only these were not like the others. They did not die.

My favourite part of the episode is the stained glass sequence, just because I love Celestia's and Discord's interactions.

Okay, can someone tell me when the sandbox/page locks for the MLP-related pages are going to get resolved? I can't tell if I should make edits to the page only to have them yanked a minute later, or what.

The sandbox can be found here along with the links to character pages. They simply haven't carried over to the main page yet.

You can make edit requests for YMMV and Fridge here. Everything else like the Episode Guide and WMG pages are editable.

The mods have said that, for now, the main pages have to remain locked due to persistent vandalism and this being a prime time for the troll to return.

So some people have said that they would have liked broken-Pinkie to have her flat "Pinkamena" hair.

I'm kinda glad she didn't. I mean, everypony else just looks like their normal selves but grey (and without horns/wings); it would have been very irritating to me if Pinkie had something else different as well.

[up][up] That, and the fact that the greyness isn't actually supposed to be visible to Twilight (I think), but if Pinkie's hair was deflated, then it would be a sure fire way to tip Twi off.

Yeah, I think the grayness was an indicator for the audience. If not, then Twilight is dumb as a post for not noticing.

I wasn't able to clearly hear what Discord said when he said "Of course it doesn't make sense", before the window sequence started. Anyone hear it clearly?

I kinda hope that the mane 6 come together and stay friends while still suffering from Discord's mind control. I think it would be really sweet. Despite all of them becoming hideously flawed, they'd still recognize what needs to be done and attempt to fix it.

  • fluttershy could direct her cruelty towards Discord
  • Pinkie could direct her anger at discord
  • AJ could lie to Discord
  • Rarity could steal Discord's stuff
  • not sure about RD

He doesn't say anything. He laughs and says "Make sense? What fun is there in making sense?"

30. extra. pages. since I've been here last. God-damn.

Welp, I think I can say this: Discord officially wins at villainy. I mean, he felt good before, but now he's just so slimy, so psychotic, and... man, when he replaced his head with a balloon? Perfect.

But, and I may be late in saying this, but... did something about fluttershy not sit right with anyone else? Something about her felt like... I dunno. Maybe flanderization. the line, "But I am weak and helpless" made me raise an eyebrow. So did the CMC fighting at the beginning, come to think of it. But I like the fact that they're sort of turning sweetie belle into the smart one.

Here's a thought, what would become of our favorite background ponies if Discord put them through the hoops and "Disharmonized" them?

Would Lyra & Bon Bon never want to see each other again? Would Derpy suddenly be a cruel, straight visioned pony? Would Doctor Whoof be incredibly unheroic? Makes me wonder how the fair citizens of Ponyville are going to react in the next episode..

[up][up] Fluttershy seemed very in-character to me. I don't think she's incredibly aware of how badass she can be, not to mention her low self-esteem.

I guess that's true. It just feels kind of disappointing to see her freaking out at the drop of a hat, after having seen her stare down a cockatrice and scold a dragon. But then, I guess those were always die-or-fly moments. She wasn't under enough real stress to trigger it.

oh, and I know it only came in one shot, but did anyone else really love the non-euclidean maze that Rarity walked through?

[up]x7 RD could... betray Cloudsdale, thus messing up Discord's plan?

Just finished the pilot and wow that was good. It all felt really crammed, there was almost no build up to Discord showing, but otherwise brilliant. Pretty dark, too.

My favorite part was where Fluttershy turned out to be incorruptible and Discord basically went "screw that, I'll just cast a spell on you".

Also, was it only me or did the maze grew larger and more distorted as time went? [up] That too.
