Kidnap the creators and force them to make episodes for me, a la "Misery." Wait what who said that no I would never do that I'm not crazy

Interesting interpretation of Chrysalis. I often consider Discord a corrupt Pinkie Pie, so I can agree with you here.

Clearly, Twilight has been watching My Little Human and got her vocabulary mixed up. Really though, everyone else here already summed it up. It still works and sounds better.

Yes, this is a certain trope with time travel usually called a "Bootstrap Paradox". You may have also seen in it the short story that coined the term, or in things like the third Harry Potter story. If you were to try to find a purely logical start of the cycle, you probably couldn't. It is possible that the "first" Twilight had a reason to go back and things played out until the loop eventually stabilized like we see in the episode. They did fix up a lot of potential dangers around Ponyville. But I think there's something more to it. Something similar happens in Donnie Darko, which uses what I call the divine intervention theory of time travel. Essentially, our universe is an entirely logical place, and the only way a time loop can be created (an effect without a cause) is by something not bound by the laws of physics. In the film, time travel exists to teach someone an important lesson. I mention this because the lesson Twilight needed to learn was pretty clear. She was becoming way too stressed and was about to go Lesson Zero again (she never really learned anything from that). Taking place in Equestria makes things much easier to explain, because magic is readily available and definitely takes precedence over the physical laws of the universe. The time loop could have been due to something like fate (which we have seen in Cutie Mark Chronicles), though my initial impression was that Celestia's magic could be strong enough to create it, especially with her rushed greeting in the library.

Hmm... I had an idea for a more subtle version of this story yesterday. Are you a... mind ninja? I think he means where Discord spends his time while his physical body is encased in stone. Otherwise that would be rather counter-productive, lol.

Baseless rumors, maybe caused by the statement of a "freakout episode." I'm sure it would be great, but don't really see it happening. As much as I love Derpy, maybe she is meant to remain a background character.

Move Applejack up and I mostly agree with it. It is surprisingly uneven, though. Rainbow Dash needs to share the love. Jealous, Applejack?

I'm not particularly a fan of Trixie, but she's a good character in the same way that all of the antagonists are well-developed. And I can see her dominatrix attitude as appealing. I have to agree with everyone who said the mane 6 acted out of line by immediately attacking Trixie. We don't get to see what her act was supposed to be because it was interrupted by the others. Chances are, she wasn't planning on putting anyone down, she must be able to perform some impressive tricks to have gained recognition in the first place. But they don't give her a chance to prove herself. She does act conceited offstage, but when she does she is keeping up the reputation that caused ponies to have interest in her at all. I don't like that she was disrespectful to Twilight at the end, even though she and her friends disrespected Trixie's talent first. I can't hate her for what she does. Ponies like to see her, Trixie is doing it for entertainment. Putting on a good show is her special talent. I find it odd that Applejack tells Twilight, "Your magic is a part of who you are, sugar cube, and we like who you are. We're proud to have such a powerful, talented unicorn as our friend." So, they'll accept Twilight's magic because she's a friend, but they won't accept Trixie for who she is?

I made a GIF of Pinkie's party-sneeze.

There was an epic (but small) pony war in the future, after all. Amazing songs. Of course Vinyl was there. I don't know what color her eyes were, it looked like they were closed most of the time her shades were off. Oh, I totally called that there would be a shapeshifter/changeling episode in the mythical beast thread.

...Portal to Hell?!

Hearts and Hooves Day: No pony can force two ponies to be together. Unless you're Cadence.

The party flows through Pinkie's veins.

The show really has changed a lot of lives. Plenty of fans of dead series exist and FiM won't be any different. The community is so large there will always be people to put out more content. Even right now most of the appeal of the show comes from connections made through the community. It won't just be forgotten and disappear overnight.
