S04:E06 - Power Ponies

[Lunar Glow 674]

All I have to say about this episode: Hasbro, I am dissapoint.   Big mac: Nope.

[Violet Heart 10]

I really enjoyed this episode! There's a few joker references in it, and I laughed whenever the villain laughed. The story was a mixture of Batman, Justice League, and a mix of pony randomness from our beloved Pinkie Pie. The episode was enjoyable, however, it borrowed too much already established comic book cliches. Maybe a little bit more originality would have made it better. But still all in all: a good episode.

[Adrela-Line 3]

[Tanos 179]

Excellent Ideas and concepts but poorly executed.

Uhm.... guys? Uhm... you don't get upset if I say that I freaking loved this episode? Eheh.... ah... please don't kill me... 

[AkiraLeeJounouchi 857]

^I loved it as well. GO! GO! POWER PONIES!!!

[Persona22 205]

Was looking around when I realized this:

As you remember the costume of the Masked Matter-Horn had the symbol of a mountain. (And, most likely, Masked Matter-Horn's cutie mark must be one as well).

It turns out that Matterhorn is the german name of one of the tallest mountains in the Swizz Alps http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matterhorn

I kindaaa think Fluttershy is dangerous... *slowly walks away from Fluttershy*

[TheJLeeTeam 914]

this was a great episode and one of the more interesting ones. We get to see superhero versions of the ponies and I enjoy episodes where the main characters turn into superheroes. And it has my favorite villain, the Mane-iac. This is one of the first episodes I watched and one of my absolute favorites.

[Lyra's Pants 154]

It's been exactly 1 year since this episode aired, and this is one of the strangest episodes ever. It honestly seemed like a fan animation due to all the references to superheroes, Maretropolic, and... Flutterhulk...

 

I honestly don't understand the appeal about Flutterhulk. Was it supposed to be funny? Scary? Gross? All of the above? I'm just utterly baffled as to how Flutterhulk had gotten so popular, almost to memetic status. Why do people like her so much? My sense of humor may be deficient, because the whole Hulk pastiche seemed... disturbing. Like, they gave precious Fluttershy freakishly huge muscles and a feral personality. It felt like something out of Ren & Stimpy or Pony.Mov, not in My Little Pony, let alone the obligatory superhero episode.

I agree.  I just watched it earlier today.  (I have just started watching through season 4.  I waited for the dvds, which took a million years to come out.)  Anyway, this episode was so friggin weird.  I hated it, actually.  It just felt like some ridiculous spin-off, rather than a real FIM episode.  You know what it really felt like?

 

Treehouse of Horror.

 

That's it.  Plain and simple.  This was a friggin Treehouse of Horror episode.  It didn't actually happen.  Nuff said.  Case closed.

fluttershy is best power pwnay:D

[CC_Maud_Pie 6,431]

Really good episode. Liked the ponified version of super heroes.

[Dulset Tarn 441]

Sure the whole idea was extremely stupid, but that didn't mean the whole episode had to be dumb as a rock...

[Poetic Stone 1,040]

Awesome episode I really like the whole comic book theme they had going on, I really enjoyed it big time, and I hope they do more like this in the future.

[JonasDarkmane 19,777]

I just absolutely loved Flutterhulk  . It was too perfect  . I loved the episode

[I Bring Da LULZ 131]

Pretty simple premise, but pretty well done. Please tell me there's gonna be more power ponies 

[Luna_tic 120]

Enjoyable episode, but a bit overly repetitive about Humdrum being useless.  Children got it after the first explanation.  Overall, it was cool.  I'm a big DC comics fan, so I enjoyed a lot of those references (the Joker origin, the Flash, Green Lantern, etc.)

[Lyra's Pants 154]

My favorite part was when the henchman was all, "My hair!" after Rainbow Dash zapped his hair. That was funny.

[Graystrip 551]

I'm getting a feeling that someone thought MLP should have more singing.  Correct me if I am wrong, but are there more songs in this season compared to seasons 1 through 3?  The best part was when Fluttershy turned into "the Incredible Hulk" because the evil villain had hurt a firefly.  But, then again, Fluttershy is just my favorite pony, so I may just be a little biased on that point of view. 

 

The super-sized hairspray was funny.  I still remember when my sisters would spray their hair with hair spray, very sticky stuff.  I don't know if any kids would understand. Hairspray isn't something that was used as much as it was when I was a kid in the 80s.  Unless the writers were looking to entertain the older adults in the audience, I think the kids would have been lost on that one. 

[BrawnyCharger 511]

I really enjoyed this episode. 

 

I happen to be a superhero fan myself so I enjoyed all the references.

 

One thing that I've been wondering, If the Maneiac had been a stallion, how awesome would it have been to have Mark Hamill (Joker's voice actor in Batman TAS)voice him?

[powerpuff-tsubasa 447]

cute episode with ponies and spike traveling into the comic book world. <3_<3

[cmarston1 5,951]

I didn't really care much for this episode.

I found it to be weak and forgettable.

[cuteycindyhoney 13,282]

I really liked the concept of an enchanted comic you entered to live the adventure. Spike really should return to that store! I would love to see the ponies trapped in an anime world. Would Rarity like wearing a sailor fuku? I'm sure she would! 

[Moony the Cat 3,695]

I found it cool, that they gave them Superhero Costumes and a new setting, it was refreshing. Since i believed that the Shadow in Castlemaneia was Trixie, i also thought that the Comic Book was magical because of Trixie and she would just play with them again. But okay, it got explained at the end. It was not really the best Explanation, but okay. In a World in which Magic exists, Spike doesnt believe that Magic Comic Books exist? Okay then. If you say so.
