spoiler |Teaser!|MLP: FIM Season 6 first shots preview!..

I thought Cutie Re-Mark was style over substance. And it had not just the worst redemption of the show, but possibly the worst villain redemption I've ever seen. 

 

Kind of my thought.

That's my biggest worry is that, after seeing Cutie remark and FG that he'll be in charge of what's to come. Because given what I've seen of his direction for the show, I'm not enthused.

the rumors of him taking over as story editor plus the odds of Starlight glimmer having a big role in the next season are why I have little enthusiasm for whats to come. :/

The "chosen one from birth" stuff has been part of FIM ever since they started Shilling twilight's background more.

 

She had a cutie mark that was the tree of harmony's symbol after all, showing her to be destined from the start; Her Element started from the get-go as her Cutie mark's shape, unlike the others which were generic shaped and only changed later to be the other 5's cutie mark. (as per S4's retconning the element of magic being on the tree of harmony and the EOM being her shape when celestia wielded it)

 

 

So FIM already has the idea that a pony can be special before earning anything, so Princess flurry heart being an alicorn isn't really much different than twilight having the tree of harmony's symbol on her flank, it just means that flurry heart is pre-destined in the same way twilight was.

(not that I like that, but its already how things seem to work in FIM)

True. And I never denied that Twilight is "special". But she is the protagonist. The story follows her. etc. Adding another inherently special pony is blegh. Because Twilight is a "chosen one" archetype, that's why Flurry Heart can't be either of these.

I just saw the hoofdarned preview. they literally did this in the absolute WORST possible of ways. The uncontrollable magic, OP baby Alicorn.

Making a darn OP Alicorn baby was the WORST option. Congrats everypony, introducing Princess Plot Device. Her special talents are MacGuffin and Deus Ex Machina. Now give us all of your money!
