Misterian 118 February 10, 2014 Share February 10, 2014 Okay, remember that part where Flash presented proof to Vice-Principal Luna that cleared Twilight's name when Shimmer accused her of destroying the Fall Formal decoration? Here's my question; why didn't Vice-Principal Luna do anything to punish Shimmer for framing Twilight? Students from any school I know would've gotten detention for something like that, Luna could've at least had Shimmer disqualified from the Fall Formal Princess election as punishment, but she didn't even do that! what's up with that? Why don't we ever see humans in Equestria? they're hiding, the ponies stole all their clothes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scootalove 10,689 February 10, 2014 Share February 10, 2014 Well, even though Sunset Shimmer did frame Twilight she would have to do it in a way that would be believable. Luna probably didn't think that Shimmer was actually framing her. 2 Credit: Moony © Forum FAQ Forum Rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duidamasterXD 9,627 February 10, 2014 Share February 10, 2014 The same reason Shimmer seems to be able to openly bully and terrorize students without repercussions. The movie seems to portray Celestia and Luna as not being able to control her or run the high school competently at all, which is pretty ridiculous if you ask me. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fhaolan 4,484 February 10, 2014 Share February 10, 2014 Likely it would have been passed off the Snips and Snails. That was kinda their point in the movie, to be the fallguys. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luna probably didn't think that Shimmer was actually framing her. She seemed convinced enough to almost disqualify Twilight from the Fall Formal for something she didn't do, still doesn't make sense to me why Luna didn't at least do so with Shimmer over something she DID do.

True Rarity 1,240 February 10, 2014 Share February 10, 2014 I think the real question is, how come Vice Principal Luna didn't realize that the pictures were obviously cut and pasted. I mean, really!

applejock 358 February 10, 2014 Share February 10, 2014 Because they are saving that as the plot for film number 2!!!! That being said, I want more chubby human Luna, she looked great!

All having the face of "get out of my office kid" and "im so busy that i really dont care what your problem is, let me work on stuff while im talking too you" So un-celestia, imo. :okiedokielokie: 1 ---> Here be Fabulous Mare! <--- There be Brony! ***Fear the Hater, for they are out to taint your Perfection.

Something Floaty 1,334 February 10, 2014 Share February 10, 2014 If you think about it, the implications for that universe are sort of terrifying. Frame another student for an act of destruction, and nothing happens. Transform into a flying demon and exert psychic control over the student populace in order to turn them all into a disposable army intent on invading and conquering another universe? Well, you're going to learn your lesson! You have to repair the damage to the doors that you broke during your violent rampage! I wonder what warrants detention in that universe. Detonating a nuclear weapon? And never mind the high school, I'm not sure I want to live in a universe where someone can fire off powerful energy beams and partially demolish a school while ranting about raising an army for a full ten minutes without law enforcement showing up... 2 Signature created by Champion RD92 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something Floaty 1,334 February 10, 2014 Share February 10, 2014 Because Adults Are Useless. Yeah, it's a recurring trope in pretty much every show aimed at kids. I know we are all overthinking it, but it is fun to really wonder what the hell is going on in that universe. 1 Signature created by Champion RD92 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, they live different lives, which means they might develop different traits. I know we didn't see alot of this different shading of the mane six, but I guess if anyone wanted to tackle as to how this behavior on Celestia's part is possible, that would be one way around it. But I agree, now that you mention is, those traits do seem very Un- princess like. Pony designed using the Pony Creator by GenralZoi@Deviantart.com. Photo taken by yours truly.

Shenron00 366 February 14, 2014 Share February 14, 2014 I dunno maybe there's not enough proof to show that it was Sunset Shimmer. Flash Senrty never said it was her and maybe Luna assumed that Sunset just happened to come across the photos and becsme part of the real culprits plan. But that's just my guess. Yo! I'm Shenron00, but you can call me “Shen” if you want! Thanks to WheatleyCore for the sig! BTW, yes, I do realize that's Carnage and not Shenron.

Pat.Rio.T. 305 March 17, 2014 Share March 17, 2014 Because that was circumstantial evidence. For all Luna knew(although highly improbable but still a chance), Shimmer could have picked them up after they had fallen out of some guy's folder, who cut and pasted them after he stole them from the person who took the pictures in the first place from a camera that he borrowed from someone else.

yayayayayala 1,668 March 21, 2014 Share March 21, 2014 I guess that would have messed up the plot too much; Sunset needed to still be in the game for the Fall Thingy. I mean Formal. (I care about that movie very much.) I had another problem with that scene - it seemed like Luna changed her mindset too quickly. She went from accusing Twilight to instantly accepting Flash's photos...I mean, seriously, Sunset would have probably actually photoshopped those pictures on her computer! She wouldn't have done it the traditional way. It doesn't make sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
