  1. I have thought of more ideas for Discord's glorious reign of chaos! :P

     

    He could literally switch the colors of the ponies's mane with the color of their fur and vice versa. Wouldn't be all that major but would still be interesting. :P

     

    He could also switch the personalities of the mane 6.

     

    So we would have like a hyper and bouncy Twilight and a shy and timid Pinkie Pie. :P

    I can see it now. Twilight  becomes a laidback country yokel. Fluttershy becomes a hyperactive party animal. Rarity becomes an egotistical slovenly athlete. Pinkie becomes a nerdy aspie know it all. Rainbow becomes an obsessive compulsive fusspot and Applejack becomes a craven coward.

  2. How about a "Weekend at Discord's" episode? Think about it, it could tie into Fluttershy's eventual coronation. Here's how it could work: Twilight is working on a formula that could turn Discord's good and evil halves into separate entities, unfortunately she leaves the CMC in charge of guarding the formula since Spike is on vacation. Sweetie tries to practice magic but fails miserably and somehow accidentally kills Discord causing the gang to have to pretend he's still alive in order to pass a test from Celestia. 

  3. @@8ballgremlin,

     

    Okay, not meaning to especially pick on you, but some of the characters you listed, in fact, almost all of them, aren't evil, they simply aren't friendly.

     

    I mean, Chrysalis is evil. Nightmare Moon is evil. Trixie? Gilda? The Flim/Flam brothers? Prince Blueblood? Despite not being the best role models for foals and fillies around the world, they aren't trying to conquer Equestria or anything.

    That's what would make it interesting. They would be targeting the gang specifically. It's already clear that Trixie doesn't care who gets hurt as long as she can make Twilight suffer and that Gilda has no loyalty other than to herself. I already said that I'd see Blueblood as a member simply to be around Trixie. Equestria will burn in their wake only until Twilight and Friends are found dead in the rubble. Also I don't see Flim and Flam being members of Elements of disharmony willingly. They'd have been blackmailed into being members. They'd turn Court's evidence on the others for a much lighter sentence.

  4. @@8ballgremlin,

     

    Er, just out of curiosity, why would anyone think Rarity robbed a bank? Why would anyone even suspect her? I mean, she can find gems at-will, and theoretically have near-infinite riches.

    For something in a safety deposit box of course. Let's say that Trixie planted evidence that Rarity was a hack and that her designs were copied from someone else. It doesn't matter that our seven teenage heroes know that that evidence is fake. It only matters that the police don't. Clearing up the matter will take hours maybe days leaving Trixie and her lackeys free to move on to the next phase of her plan.

  5. I love that idea!

     

    Show some more evil in the characters who appeared for only one episode!!

     

    img-1661914-1-196640__safe_pinkie-pie_an-They'll wear these mustaches!

     

    Haha!

    Yeah I figure that Trixie as the leader (with shades of Prof. Moriarty) would be the element of sorcery. Blueblood would be the element of selfishness.  Flim and Flam would be the element of duplicity. Gilda would be the element of treachery, the new additions would be the elements of spite and malice and Garble represents peer pressure vs Spike's free will. Blueblood would develop a relationship with Trixie that darkly mirrors Spike and Rarity's hinted at relationship. Whereas Spike and Rarity are equal partners, Blueblood is ultimately Trixie's flunkey. Trixie would also taunt Twilight and the gang with riddles containing clues to identities of her co-conspirators: "I'd be a lyin' if I said this wasn't my way of giving you the bird." To add more power to the story the CMC could be kidnapped. With Scootaloo being kept in a building in Cloudsdale containing a bomb. In fact the bombs should be placed throughout Cloudsdale, Canterlot and Ponyville so that Twilight, Rainbow and Fluttershy will have a harder time deactivating them. It could be a two part episode and in the climax of part one, Trixie could be confronted by Twilight at the falls behind Celestia's castle where she is revealed to have enhanced her abilities with a pair of cybernetic wings that she built from specs stolen from a lab in Whinnypeg. Part two could begin with Twilight and Trixie both falling to their deaths in the struggle. Later while the gang is trying to adjust to life without her, a mysterious eldery book peddler appears at either the library or the boutique depending on whether Spike stayed in the library or moved in with Rarity so they could comfort each other. Spike invites in the mysterious old mare who as soon as he turns his back is revealed to be Twilight, alive and well. Perhaps Blueblood escaped from police custody after hearing about Trixie's fall and was hunting Twilight for revenge. So in order to protect her friends Twilight had to let them think she was dead, confiding only in Celestia and Shining Armor.

     

    Comical highlights could include:

     

    Trixie reprimanding Gilda for doing something stupid ala Siegfried from Get Smart:

     

    "Gilda, this is the elements of disharmony! We don't (X) here!

  6. If it is one we've seen, I think It will likely be the return of Discord. But I think new villain is likely. I would prefer it if Discord reappered myself.

    (TI think he is most likely, because he is the only villain that hasn't reoccured, in some fashion, other than Chrysalis)

    You must have missed "Keep Calm and Flutter On". Fluttershy outsmarted him at his own game in that episode. WITHOUT THE HELP OF THE ELEMENTS. 

  7. How about a Legion of Doom sort of thing between Trixie, Blueblood, Flim and Flam, Gilda, Garble and two newer characters. Think about it. Trixie assembles almost every one-off who'd have a grudge against the gang.She blackmails a reluctant Flim and Flam into joining while Blueblood joins because he hates Rarity (for that reason you suck speech) AND is smitten with Trixie and Gilda works well enough with her anyway. They could be portrayed as truly villainous, pulling off multiple felonies to wear down the mane seven, perhaps bombings in Cloudsdale, a bank robbery in Canterlot (for which Rarity is framed), among other things.

  8. On  my on, I'm lazy, cowardly, jealous, opinionated, tactless, egotistical, rude, insulting, distrustful,bitter, vengeful, spiteful and duplicitous. Being discorded would be an improvement. 

  9. How about Spike as Fred? setting off those booby traps to catch the guy in the monster suit requires a certain level of dexterity. Applejack has neither a horn nor wings nor hands, and thus has no way of setting off a trap worthy of Fred. Spike however has hands and can manipulate things like levers, knobs and switches.  

  10. Ponybusters!

    Rainbow Dash as Venkman (Bill Murray)

    Twilight Sparkle as Ray (Dan Aykroyd)

    Fluttershy as Egon (Harold Ramis)

    Applejack as Winston (Ernie Hudson)

    Rarity as Dana (Sigourney Weaver)

    Pinkie Pie as Louis (Rick Moranis)

    Spike as the secretary (Annie Potts, I think)

    Trixie as Mr. Peck AKA "that annoying guy that ruins everything" (don't know his name... he was also in Real Genius)

    Discord as Gozer

    Ursa Major as the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man

    Derpy as Slimer

    Shouldn't Spike be Rick Moranis and Twilight be Harold Ramis? Applejack as Winston works but Discord should be Slimer I guess, He's chaotic but unlike Gozer, he is much more mischievous than actually evil.

  11. Horse Feathers (1932):

     

    Spike - Groucho Marx as Prof. Quincy Adams Wagstaff

    Pinkie- Harpo Marx as Pinky

    Rainbow - Chico Marx as Baravelli

    Applejack - Zeppo Marx as Frank Wagstaff

    Rarity - Connie Bailey

     

    (This is mostly a pair of casting gags... these are some of the most popular ships for Rarity (skipping Flarity and Rarilight) also Pinkie would make an excellent Harpo (who played a similarly named character). Also Groucho plays a guitar in one scene and only Spike has the necessary dexterity for that.)   

     

    Superman the Animated Series:

     

    Big McIntosh - Kal-El/Clark Kent/Superman and Bizarro

    Fluttershy - Lois Lane

    Featherweight - Jimmy Olson

    Mayor Mare - Lex Luthor

    Gilda - John Corben/Metallo

    Rainbow - Bruce Wayne/Batman

    Pinkie - The Joker

    Discord - Mr. Mxyzptlk

    Chrysalis - Darkseid

    Twilight - Brainiac

  12. Actually, it's more of a good thing that they have it. Let's see some people in history who had Aspergers (or symptoms): Albert Einstein, Nikola Tesla (Definately I suspect), Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Edison, and a whole lot more.

    Don't forget, Sherlock Holmes, Charles Darwin, Dan Ackroyd, Satoshi tajiri, and Mozart. Holmes is an interesting case, because not only is he a fictional character but he would be living proof that you not all Aspies are neat, tidy or organized. In fact Holmes was slovenly, disheveled and slightly chaotic (his living space was a total mess, he would commit breaking and entering to gain evidence. His hair was often unkempt, he was totally unconcerned about his appearance. He would perform numerous forensics experiments, oblivious to the fact that neither his landlady nor his roommate really cared for him shooting the queen's initials into the wall.) Twilight from what I learned in psychology classes is a textbook case. She is extremely awkward. Even when she's those she considers friends she has trouble understanding figurative expressions, she often fails to correctly read facial cues. She'll often prattle on soapbox or not about some topic of interest to herself alone, unaware that she's boring her only actual friends or that they're not actually listening or that she's offended them. She is a slave to routine a common symptom, even I have it, only my routine is my utter lack of a discernible routine, I often appear make up the events of my day as I go along. She is obsessive about things being in a certain order, even the sloppiest of aspie's tends to be like that. My books for example are in alphabetical order by author's name and publication order by author's work.

  14. If they reform Chrysalis I will nail this franchise to the cross and burn it. I can understand reforming Discord, because he was never a villain to begin with. Chrysalis is a leech and clearly wants rule over all life, she should stay that way. Also what's wrong with repeating villains? Comics and movies get away with it all the time and it works 

     

    The mane 6, well some of them are super heroines. I would say Twilight and Rainbow and that's it. I feel like if Twilight had a nemesis it could give the show a classic fight between good and evil

     

    this scene right here is an example of a good hero/villain relationship. This is the way Chrysalis would act towards Twilight if they ever fought again

    Yeah Discord was mostly an annoyance, more Mxyzptlk than Joker, but I still think Trixie's apology was just a pure and total crock.

     

    I don't see the point in Twilight having a nemesis. Twilight is not like Superman or Batman, she not a crime fighter. She is just a pony that learns about friendship. 

     

    I don't see the writers going in a path where Chrysalis is attacking Ponyville every week like Rita Repulsa did in Power Rangers. That's not the point of the show.

    What about Trixie pulling off some crime of the century (usually a heist, robbery or wave of cyber-terrorism  or specifically and personally targeting Twilight once a month. If used right Trixie could be the kind of enemy that challenges Twilight on a more personal level, challenging her intellect moreso than the strength of her friendships. We could always use at least one other mystery story on the show. How did Trixie pull each crime off?

  15. Sparity's probs my favourite, but I like Doctor Whooves x Derpy Hooves as well. Flarity's okay, too. But I really hate family shippings (including Spilight) just because.... ewww! I mean, family! as well as Scoots x RD! It just grosses me out! No offense to those who like that but I don't. 

    Yeah Spike and Twilight are clearly brother and sister. I think ScootaMoe (Howard)'s Relationship with Rainbow is more Like Rarity's with the Monopoly guy pony than her relationship with Larry (Fine) Belle or AJ's With Curly (Howard) Bloom. Aunt/Uncle and niece.

     

    You're entitled to your opinion of course but can you explain why you think it would be best for pinkie to marry a no nonsense no fun royal guard so she doesn't get betrayed by the element of loyalty?

    I don't know, it may be the Discyzptlk (Discord fused with or impersonating Mxyzptlk) in me talking, but I do love the irony in that.

     

    AppleJack x Rainbow Dash. Nothing beats two rivals (even though its a friendly rivalry) making cute couples.

    Let's all get something straight here:

     

    AJ and Rainbow =  Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck = Friendly rivals

     

    Twilight and Trixie = Sherlock Holmes and Professor Moriarty = Archenemies

     

    FlutterShy x BigMac, Rainbow Dash x AppleJack, Rarity x Spike, Derpy x Pinkie Pie, Twilight x ?

     

     

    Twilight:img-594130-1-5384d1313953747t-jersey-sho

    She may be alone but she's by no means lonely. She's always been extremely reclusive anyway and would have little interest in romance so I doubt being forever single would bother her much.

     

    ooh, I have a whole bundle of favorite ships. biggrin.png

     

    Fluttershy x Rainbow Dash

    Fluttershy x Applejack

    Pinkie Pie x Big Mac

    Cheerilee x Big Mac

    Rarity x Pony Joe

    Rarity x Spike

    Sweetie Belle x Spike

    Celestia x Discord (one-sided, i guess? for some reason i can't ship any of the royal sisters with anyone... XD)

     

     

    ...that's all I can think of right now XDD

    I think Celestia and Discord have the same relationship these two guys have:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oflvutL6lYc

     

     

    where Discord shows up to annoy Celestia every 90 days or so.

     

     

     

     

     

    Flutterpie? How's that work out?

    I can probably count on my hand how many shippings would actually make sense xD just enjoy it

    Sparity fits as like the girl who's heavily involved with the drama club ending up with the slacker who has a severe video game addiction.

     

    I'm surprised that no one's mentioned Luigishy as long as we're going off topic. hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm hmmmmmmmmmmmm

     

    Ok. Now I'm in my element.

     

    Rainbow dash X Fluttershy.

     

    Twilight

     

    Rarity x Spike

     

    Applejack

     

    Big macintosh x Cherrilee.

     

    Pinkie pie:

     

    Deerpy hooves x Dr whooves.

     

    Discord x Celestia.

     

    Luna

     

    I'm finding rather difficult to find a mate for Luna, Pinkie pie, applejack and twilight.

    You do realize that if they could have gotten away with it Discord would probably have been portrayed as a homicidal maniac rather than a mere nuisance?

     

    of course, I USED to be a biased homophobe untill I realized, "hey, if you hate something for along time, you become paranoid" so, I still think it's bad but, there born with it so...

     

    I still fail to see the whole discord and pinkie thing... oh well...

     

    just as long as people don't hate me for not liking same sex couples, I'm fine.

    As a staunch atheist (which would probably give me something in common with Twilight) i am required by common sense and fair play to either support or be indifferent to gay rights.

     

    Twi can be oblivious to all but the most direct statements, and direct Fluttershy ain't.

     

    Even overcoming that hurdle, it'd just be too sugary sweet, IMO.

     

    Now, Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy, I support that wholeheartedly.

     

    Image tangentially related.

    img-391948-1-pinkie_pie_lip_bite_by_davi

    Of course Twilight's oblivious to non direct statements. She's not only got Asperger's Syndrome, she's the female poster child 

     

    Just thought this was cute but with this ship, what would happen to Fleur?

     

    img-217632-1-rarity_and_fancy_pants_by_d

    Sorry, I'm pretty sure this another ship. In this case uncleXniece. Besides aside from probably being her uncle, isn't he married? 

     

    I want to ship Twilight with THIS guy:

     

    img-203213-1-Nerdy_pony_cutie_mark_S2E19

    He looks Harold from The Red Green Show: 

     

    Here's your host your hero my uncle Red Green: 

    1367699953.festergremlin_remember_if_the

    Welcome to the experts portion of our show where we examine those three little words stallions find so hard to say ...

     

    I don't know.

     

    I'm probably a really rare case here, but I don't care for shipping at all. Shipping in anything is just sort of... stupid to be honest. I do like pairs of characters interacting, and their friendships and stuff, but shipping means romantic, at least to me, and it's something that really doesn't make sense. Not to mention a lot of shipping in MLP assumes everypony is gay since there's so many females, which doesn't make sense. When people got upset over their Fluttershy/Big Mac with all the Cheerilee/Big Mac, I just rolled my eyes. Shipping wars are so dumb too, IMO.

     

    I like Lyra and Bonbon together, but everyone always assumes they love each other, couldn't they just big best friends too?

    DJ Pon3 and Octavia I like when people draw them because they're so different and they're musicians and I like the characters, but shipping? That doesn't make sense.

     

    I do like Spike and Rarity since it's something that's actually been brought up in the show and isn't random or anything, but shipping itself, I don't really care for at all.

    Spike and Rarity always give off such a Gomez and Morticia vibe and when they don't they give off one of Mario and Princess Peach.

  16. SoarinDash or Flutterdash. I absolutely HATE PinkieDash. Pinkie Pie will be forever alone. I kinda ship Blueblood and Rarity, mainly because I attempted to mske a fanific explaining Blueblood's behavior. And I would ship Cadence and Shining Armor, but that one really doesn't count because it's a given. BIG MAC AND CHEERILEE!!!!

    In my headcanon, Blueblood has it in for Rarity for humiliating him with that reason you suck speech and eventually joins a group founded and led by Trixie to oppose the mane 7 and becomes smitten with her, resulting in their relationship being a warped reflection of any relationship between Spike and Rarity where as many of the things Spike does for her, Rarity would clearly prefer that he not do them because she doesn't want to take advantage of him, while Blueblood will do anything for Trixie and she willingly uses him. Although in my headcanon Trixie becomes a pseudo-alicorn by fusing a pair of cybernetic wings (from stolen specifications) to herself in order to be a match against Twilight.
