  1. The Gremlins movies in my opinion are classics :D! In fact the avatar I usually use on other sites is this:

    These are very creative and fun movies and the practical effects are used to bring the creatures to life are amazing! Must watch around every Christmas :)!

  2. I'd prefer things like that to be left out of MLP. It would be like seeing a flying saucer casually cross the skies of Middle Earth if you know what I mean. Just wrong somehow.

     

    Then again a ponified version of Mass Effect would be a sight to behold img-1977991-1-laugh.png .

  3. I have a serious fear of Shia LeBeouf, the actual cannibal. His very name strikes fear into the hearts of all who dread the day of his return D:

    Although I do not find him as unbearable as a others seem to that was really funny biggrin.png.

     

    As for fears well it's not exactly pointless but I'm really afraid of knives. I don't have much problem using one to eat and all but in any other context I just hate seeing them. Somebody holding a knife seriously makes me shudder.

  4. I actually become really calm and everything seems really clear when I can sit down with my friends in a dark room smoke a hookah (no drugs in it) and just enjoy talking to each other or listening to music or something like that. Those are my moments of clarity, when I reach my inner peace, so to say. My worries seem so distant then and I can really just focus on the moment and enjoy myself.

  5. For a long time it was really difficult for me. It is very different from my language in a lot of ways (then again a lot of people say that Hungarian is one of the weirdest existing languages XD). But I like to think I am pretty good at it now. My life would be very different if I never learned to speak English. I would be a really different person for sure. Now most of the movies I watch, books I read (and audiobooks I listen to) etc. are in English. It has helped me to see and experience a lot of the world and things out there that I wouldn't have been able to because they are not available in my original language or because they are very badly translated. I'm really glad to be able to understand and speak English biggrin.png!

  6. *ponders* But wasn't there already a hydra?

    Twilight_discovers_a_Hydra_behind_her_S1

    Granted it's no where near as fearsome looking as the one you posted but this is a kids cartoon after all. e9FkmL5.png

    It's very odd that I'd forget about that but yeah ,that certainly looks like one. Although in my mind Hydras can't leave water but most fiction depicts them with legs so I must be wrong about that. But yeah, that is one. Thank you for reminding me about that :D!

  7. That could make for a very interesting story in my opinion. They could do it serious or play it for laughs. I'd prefer a more serious approach (or possibly a mix of the two although that would be considerably harder to do). But with her popularity I just don't see Queen Chrysallis replaced yet. Still, another notable Changeling character would be awesome to see and this would be a very creative way of doing that.

  8. Well for me it really is the most wonderful time of the year :D. The season of Die Hard marathons and Christmas themed movies. When the commercialism we seem to hate so much in everyday life runs rampant and we still cheer it on for some reason. The time when everybody is forgiving and usually is in high spirits, when the holiday cheer gets me and my friends and we couldn't give a sh*t about anything else but having fun and what we get for Christmas :D. I can see why it can be stressful or unenjoyable for some people but I look forward to it every single year :D!

  9. I never thought about anything being past Alicorn form. I guess they could ascend to become creatures like the Vorlons in Babylon 5 (I'm not sure how much of a spoiler the next thing I'm writing is but I'm gonna hide it anyway) 

    Almost immortal creatures of thought who transcend space and time to the point where others I like amoeba to them

    . But really I don't think Vorlon toys would sell all that well laugh.png !

  10. I only recently learned about the existence of Towel Day (in a game show of all things) but since I am a big fan of Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, damn right I'm gonna celebrate it biggrin.png! I have no idea how but a day as awesome as that must be celebrated. Most likely I'm gonna carry a towel with me everywhere that day, holding my thumb up and desperately hoping to be picked up by a passing space ship .

  11. I was always looking forward to Saturday morning cartoons when I was younger. I have also become kind of a book worm at around the age of 8 (those Harry Potter books sure started something). I had many movies on VHS and later on DVD as well so when I didn't really have anything better to do I just started getting the ones I haven't seen yet off the shelves and watching them one by one. And of course how could I forget about my beloved PS2 and N64 and the many many hours of entertainment they have given me (and still continue to this day).

     

    Wow, I just realized that this is pretty much what I like to do nowadays as well (except for the Saturday morning cartoons). Hmm, guess I have always been this nerdy ,haven't changed much over the years.

  12. Thank you! Much appreciated. And yes, that is what partly inspired this work. I loved it the moment it got introduced, it's a shame that they just leave that idea so soon again. I know i have seen plenty of Dark Twilight works, so the idea itself must be a popular one. But maybe it would turn the show into something too dark? Not that i would mind if only for a twoparter or something.

     

    But that was all sparked by how easily Twilight seemed to use it, i hope it will be explained upon further. And the room for tragedy and conflict is there. If not in the official way, i hope it will eventually come in the form of a fan episode.

    Dark Twilight in my opinion is a fascinating idea. I wouldn't like it to be something permanent but something could really be done with that (self advertisement: I'm writing a fanfiction like that :D). After all, her talent is all magic not just the Magic of Friendship ,isn't it img-387689-1-5e7kmu.png ?  

     

    I used to think that including more Dark Magic could make the show more serious than it needs to be but if done well that wouldn't bother me and it wouldn't necessarily have to make the show darker. So yeah, more dark magic for Season 4!

     

    Anyway, just to reiterate :

    This is an amazing picture based on an awesome idea :D! Can't be stressed enough.

  13. This is a great idea and it was very well done :D! Awesome piece of art!

     

    Let us hope season 4 brings a bit more of the darker shade of magic.

     

     

     

    Agreed, that could be really interesting (and even dramatic) if done right.

  14. Hey there pinksquek, welcome to the forums! Hope you enjoy your stay here, this place is loads of fun! happy.png

    I'm sorry, I know this is off topic but your profile picture is awesome :D!

  15. I've yet to see definitive proof fan pandering sucks.

    I think it's this boogie man the conservatives in the fan base wheel out everytime they wanna scare someone like bush did with terrorists.

     

    I noticed someone voted for rain bows dad,

    um should they do a family episode?

    Like one for each of the main six?

     

    is aj's parents offically dead or is that theory?

    Actually, that's true. I don't know why many people feel like the concept is a bad thing. I didn't mean to imply that in my previous post but I guess the word "fan pandering" does have a negative meaning to it. It doesn't really bother me, it made Equestria Girls a lot more fun to me to be honest.

     

    I would actually really like and episode about the mane six's families. Especially, some clarity on the parents of AJ would be nice.

  16. Although I don't listen to much J-Pop these two songs from Persona 3&4 are really special to me. Those games have awesome soundtracks.

     

    Avoid the comments if you are even slightly interested in these games and you haven't played them. They are usually full of spoilers.

     

     

  17. I think an episode about the background ponies could be a lot of fun. Either them getting one or two episodes where we focus on them instead of the mane six or one (maybe more) which is about one specific background pony. It would feel a bit like, okay a lot like, fan pandering but really who doesn't want to see an episode about Derpy or Doctor Whooeves or [insert your favorite background previously not mentioned pony here] biggrin.png!

     

    Also some of them getting a bigger role in the main plot of the episode could be fun to see.

  18. I don't have all that many problems with Rarity to be honest but I do agree that she doesn't represent the element of generosity all that well (and vice versa) I didn't like her all that much until I saw "A Dog and Pony Show". They played with stereotypes so well in that episode ,in my opinion, that since than I don't dislike her at all. And even after that she had some good episodes and moments here and there. I find her to be a really entertaining character.
