    books World War Z

    The book was incredible and, though a tad boring at times, it really made a damn good impact on me. Max Brooks really fulfilled what I wanted the book to be like, making it seem more realistic than just "Look, zombies! Let's shoot them and win!" The movie looks...buffed up, not at all what I thought the adaptation would be like. Sure, it'll be fun to watch but I just don't think it will be the film I would have liked it to be, such is the curse of the film enterprise.
  2. I'd like to imagine that, since Discord is the embodiment of Chaos and all things unharmonious, when he was imprisoned the first time, the darker aspects of his powers were unleashed and solidified to form pinnacles of dark magic, which, in turn, created strife and anger between ponies which lead to the conflict between the three races, allowed Windigos to be created, allowed Nightmare Moon to form and, ultimately, gave King Sombrero-Roche the rather sinister powers he has at the moment, or had. I'd like to think that but it would most likely be that dark magic has existed for as long as harmonious magic because equal and opposites, blah, blah, blah. In order to balance the forces when the Elements of Harmony were created, dark magic had to be created in order to maintain said balance. Its purpose would be to make sure everything remained equal, etc etc. I prefer to think that this is all Discord's doing somehow but it seems unlikely given how he is constantly frozen in stone.
  3. The splashy one, more commonly known as Doctor Whooves of course just because he is an incarnation of one of my favourite characters in T.V ever into the life of MLP, one of my favourite T.V shows ever.
  4. What is the meaning I wake up every morning, the meaning of my life? That...that is a surprisingly tough question. I guess the reason I get up is simply because I want to live my life, because I want to get decent grades in school, get a good job, get a family and all of that jargon that makes up the "perfect" life. There is no true meaning to my reasoning towards my meaning of life, there is no deep, hidden, insightful meaning like to spread world peace or to wipe out famine through the use of genetically engineered crops that I created. Nah, the meaning of my life is simply to live it out, to get as good a grade as possible in school, to blitz through college/ university, to get a great paying job, grab a family like I'm the Grinch at christmas, settle down and retire blah blah blah. All that other stuff about spreading kindness and love just sorta happens along the way I guess. Basically, for me, the meaning of my life is to live, pay taxes, breed and I guess have fun? Not very deep, not very disturbing, not very emotionally moving. Just plain old boring really. And now, because I want to, I will answer those lovely questions. What is the reason you wake up every morning? To go to school, to have fun, to simply live and experience the theme park ride that is "Life". What makes you want to be alive a week from now? Well, I'd be pretty pissed if roughly 10 years of school work was wasted because I spontaneously died. I guess what makes me want to be alive in a weeks time is just the simple ideal that I want to live my life like any other human being, to have fun and what not. Not to drastically change the world and neither to sink into the mould that we have made for ourselves but to just live life and be myself, which I cannot do if I'm dead. What, if taken away, would render your life unbearable? Well, freedom of course. If you were to take away that then my life would no longer be mine and would therefore be redundant and unbearable. What, if given to you, would render your life worth living? My life is already worth living but if I had nothing to start with then I'd have to say that compassion since it affects people so deeply and, along with wanting a decent job, it is one of the key factors towards why I drive myself so hard at school. The care and comfort my family has shown me throughout the years sort of pushed me towards trying to better myself so that their work was not in vain. Also, I wouldn't say no to heaps of money. Do you even value your own life? Yep. I don't really want to die at the moment since I think I will become so much more then I currently am. Then again, I wouldn't be overly sad if I was definitely told that I would die in, say, a week because to me, over my 16 years of life that I have currently lived, I have done exactly as I wished to, I have had fun and done wonderful things and gone to great places. If you told me I was set to die soon then my immediate thought would be that I have lived my life perhaps not as well as others but as well as I've wanted to live it so far. I do value life but I would not run from death when it came for me, no matter when or where.
  5. I don't like those people in the fandom who constantly spout "Love and tolerate" and yet turn their backs on the phrase they have just forced towards others by declaring that cloppers are creepy, sick and disgusting. I practically implode at the irony.
  6. Rarity is an incredibly diverse character, one with two separate ideals to her, one of greed and one of generosity and, quite frankly, I think that is the reason she is very high up in my favourite characters list. She is, without a doubt, the most generous of the group but she is also the most greedy, creating a sort of battle between the good and bad within her that I love to watch. The other members always seem to have their elements under control, especially Pinkie and RD and the disputes of the elements from the element holders (e.g Fluttershy in Putting Your Hoof Down) are usually sorted out in one episode whilst with Rarity it seems to be a pitched battle to fight her lust and want, her greed. Perhaps she appears greedy at times but that just makes her generosity all the more present as it shows that despite what she can be, she will nearly always choose to be generous. What I'm trying to say here is that Rarity may be greedy and, yes, she may not fully resemble generosity but it's the battle that she makes to embody it, the ability to pull through when her friends truly need her and to put aside her own faults and flaws that makes her such a fabulous character and such a good choice for the element of generosity.
  7. To be honest, if they said they would release a season 3, only to have it cancelled I would have to petition, not out of the aspect that I desperately yearn for the new episodes but because they promised us new ones, they told us there would be a season 3 and for them to snatch that away from us, well, that would be incredibly wrong in my opinion and I would gladly fight to get new episodes released as promised. Or I'd stay inside and gorge myself on fanfics, music and comics until the pain went away.
  8. I honestly struggled to understand a single word that came out of Bane's mouth.

      SO HAWT MY EYES MELTED!

  10. I would love to say Discord but they won't recycle him into the main villain. I would still go with either the nega-harmony (the polar opposites of the Elements of Harmony) or some wicked new leader of a mythological race, like the Changelings. Or possibly, a group of villains from the previous seasons clump together to form an awesome roving villain band with their own theme song and fireworks. That'd be cool.
  11. Nah bro, my pillow is the only one I need in my life. In all honesty, I find the ponies themselves cute but I do not have a crush on any of them. Sure, I'd hug them an awful lot if they were real but that would be about as far as it goes. Unless they were Princess Luna or Dashie, in which case snugglez would be had by the dozen.
  12. Silver Spoon. Sure, Diamond Tiara is the main bully who gets kicks from annoying and saddening others but I hate how Silver Spoon just watches on from the sidelines, capable of doing something to help but is instead sucked into the whirlpool of hate that Diamond Tiara produces and turned into an aggressive bystander.
  13. I would think that Windigos were creations made by Discord in order to spread chaos and disharmony across the land. After all, we saw no signs of Discord, Luna or Celestia during Hearth's Warming Eve so, in my opinion, I thought that Discord sent his windigos out to spread his chaos whilst he was busy fighting with Luna and Celestia. I would have thought that Discord being older then Celestia and Luna would not have evolved from the windigos since I reckon he was around for a very, very long time and instead he would have made them. Since he is the God of Chaos, it seems right to me that he would also be the creator of one of the most chaotic beasts in the world, along with Parasprites since they are adorable but are capable of devouring towns, a creature I believe Discord would simply adore. So, to answer your question, I would say yes, they are related but the windigos were made by Discord instead of the other way around.
  14. Rarity/Tavi duet: Hmm, I have a feeling that it would be more of a professional thing. Perhaps Rarity goes to Canterlot to sell her fashion, gets put off by cruel ponies, meets Octavia, they become friends and then, like all friends do, they break into spontaneous song and dance. Flutterdragon: Hmm, spell gone wrong, maybe she takes a wrong potion from Zecora as many have said. Or maybe, and this is my own opinion, when Trixie returns she uses her new found magic to turn Fluttershy into a dragon. Or possibly, Celestia changes Fluttershy without telling her to help her get over he fear of dragons. So many possibilities. Trixie's magnificent return: Either she has a change of heart and comes back to apologise or she returns with some wicked new magic to challenge Twilight, in which she at first wins but then the six find out she cheated. Or something like that, all I can think about is return of Trixie.
  15. Happy happy birthday to yoooooooooooou. The amount of O's is the amount of love for you. (It's a pretty big number).

      Heh, thanks <3

  16. Nahnahnahnahnahnahnahnahnahnahnahnahnahnahnahnah LYRAMOBILE! Oh, wrong show. This is really, really good. You really incorporated the ponies well into the Warthog instead of just cramming them in there without following the instructions of "Please keep limbs inside the vehicle". Very, very good.
  17. You haven't seen spasmodic movements of limbs and other areas of the body that really shouldn't move until you've seen me hit the dance floor... So, to answer your question, I dance poorly. Very, very poorly.

  19. She replaces all of the flour in Ponyville...with baking powder! Oh that sly devil. Nah, I would have to go with the idea of her impersonating a member of high authority or a pony close to the Mane 6 in order to get back at them. Maybe she'd turn into Spike and piss of Twilight, maybe she'd turn into Scootaloo, Applebloom or Sweetie Belle and piss of their respective mother figures or maybe, just maybe, she'd turn into Madame Le Flour and make Pinkie go crazy again. I don't think she'd team up with Discord because in the end he only wants chaos and would most certainly turn against her.
  20. It feels like Discord is staring into my soul...

      'Discord, are we your prey alone...'

  21. Well I would have thought that they wanted to watch the three tribes of ponies unite as one before they stepped in to give their subjects the freedom to choose how they wanted to live instead of having it forced upon them straight away. Then again, that doesn't explain how Discord came about if the land was so prosperous under their rule... Maybe they watched the trio for a while and when disputes broke out and Discord was created, they stepped in to fight him and the group of ponies seeing that there were two beings fighting the monster immediately latched onto them as their leaders as one might do in dangerous time. To be honest, I have no idea and that's just my personal opinion on what may have happened.
  22. Lets see then. BF3 could be classified as more realistic, has much better graphics, has the fantastic Rush game-mode and has an alright campaign. MW3 could be classified as the more odd/quirky one, with more to do with its different game-modes and also a rather ridiculous campaign and, if I'm not mistaken, Spec-Ops which was actually pretty fun. However, the simple fact that Treyarch/ Infinity Ward choke out a new COD game every year to keep the series alive merely suggests that the game itself gets boring very quickly and constantly needs revamps. Therefore, I would pick BF3 over MW3. I'd still rather play Batman over either of them but meh, not every game can have Batman greatness.
