Evie Hunt 0 October 9, 2018 Share October 9, 2018 My kids adore Twilight Sparkle. Lauren Faust's inspiration for Canterlot, with its castle carved into the side of the mountain, was Minas Tirith from The Lord of the Rings. And it was originally called Canterbury. Did you know that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeric 46,835 October 9, 2018 Share October 9, 2018 This thread appears to be related to the My Little Pony franchise and/or the Bronydom in general. Thus, it has been sentenced to Sugarcube Corner. There are a lot of little nods to media that people have found in the show over the years. Some are subtle like this one. I’m fact hunting for the pop culture references is or was part of the allure for the fandom way back in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Valtasar 12,685 October 12, 2018 Share October 12, 2018 Canterbury, didn't know it was called that, but that name would actually be a really nice reference on it's own. still hope they'll feature Canterbury Tales in an episode somehow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
