Woodie Pecker 46 March 18, 2015 Share March 18, 2015 My Favourite Mane 6 Pony: Pinkie PieHow did you find MLP Forums?: By a YouTube video How you became a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic: I watched the "Teens react to: MLP"-video on YouTube. They showed Teens watching the intro and how they react to the fact that there are grown up men watching the show. I got turned off by the intro, but as they got to the Bronies-part, I just had the word "awesome" stuck in my head. So I decided to watch the show and it is really, really, really good. A Christmas Carol is without any doubt my favourite christmas story. So I thought it would be awesome to have it re-enected by the MLP-Universe. I imagined it to be like Twilight told the CMCs the tale of the old man who finally opens his heart. I wondered whether it would be a better if it was an actual christmas special made by Hasbro, or a fan-animation. I think that, if one does it like Muppets: A Christmas Carol and focusses on telling a good interpretation of the story and not simply the characters in all their personalities (I mean that Applejack, Pinkie Pie and Co should be used but like in Hearth's Warming Eve, more like play a role. Here are my ideas for the characters and which ponies should play them. Scrooge = Discord or Sombra (because of the evil tyrant who got reformed theme and Scrooge got consumed by greed which kinda reminds me of "A Tale of one Shadow") Narrator = Twilight (for obvious reasons) Bob Cratchit and Mrs. Cratchit = Derpy and Doctor Whooves (because they are the only ones I can really see as a familly with father, mother and child) Tiny Tim = Dinkie Doo (as the child) Jacob Marley = Tirek (Discord chained him first, which matches the chains in the story) Ghost of Christmas past = Fluttershy (a kind personality which helps him to open up his feelings) Ghost of Christmas present = Pinkie (one to enjoy being with and making everything look cheerful) Ghost of Chrismas yet to come = Luna (as proven in For Whom The Sweetie Belle Toils) Belle (Scrooges ex-girlfiend) = Celestia (for obvious reasons) Fezziwig = Applejack Fred (and his party members) = Rainbow Dash (and the Wonderbolts) and the gentlemen who seek charitable contributions should be Lyra and Bon Bon. So I don't know about copyright and everything, but if anyone of the animators out there wants to use it feel free to go. Just inform me. I'll write the script. I mainly wanted to know if you guys can agree with the characters I picked 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mesme Rize 15,687 March 22, 2015 Share March 22, 2015 I wait for something like this for so long. Christmas Carol is by far my favorite christmas story and having a pony version of it, would be awesome. My OC Mesme Rize: >https://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/mesme-rize-r8777 Thank you Randimaxis for this Wonderful Avatar. Please, don't be afraid to talk to me.

CastletonSnob 3,079 March 22, 2015 Share March 22, 2015 How about an episode like "It's a Wonderful Life"? Maybe Spike thinks everyone would be better off if he never existed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkSwap7701 16 March 22, 2015 Share March 22, 2015 (edited) Why does this have to be a fan animation? This should and could be an episode. Edited March 22, 2015 by DarkSwap7701 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcheoPony 76 March 22, 2015 Share March 22, 2015 This is something I've actually been wanting to see the show do. At least the three ghosts used to teach someone a lesson bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashen Pathfinder 16,162 March 23, 2015 Share March 23, 2015 Honestly I'm not all that enthusastic about such an episode. It's a story that has been done to death and I'm not sure if it's even worth telling with a MLP spin behind it. Granted it might be interesting to see how characters play their parts, but at the same done...it's been done. Unless MLP could put a certain spin on it I don't know if it needs to be done. Pathfinder I Sojourner I Corsair | Zu'hra I Autumn | Scarlet Willow | Gypsy | Silverthorn | Crystal Whisper | Radiant Historia | And many other OCs~ Matching signatures with mah Bestie MOONLIGHT <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastel 7,630 March 23, 2015 Share March 23, 2015 Mmh sorry, but one thing I like in MLP:FiM is that it tries to set up its own universe and it doesn't make (too important) references to other movies/books... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jammo 986 March 23, 2015 Share March 23, 2015 From Who the Sweetie Belle Toils had a bit of it. That story is done a lot. I'm not saying MLP shouldn't do it, but if they can't add anything unique or refreshing to a story that's got hundreds of iterations, probably best not to do it at all.

Woodie Pecker 46 April 10, 2015 Author Share April 10, 2015 How about an episode like "It's a Wonderful Life"? Maybe Spike thinks everyone would be better off if he never existed. That would be kinda boring, since almost every Spike centered episode volves around him learning that he's not useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
