A bit fitting to the episode.

Im sure the day Ive warned you about is ever looming in your mind, blocking all other thoughts, save for how terrible your fate is. But for me, it's Next Tuesday.

[Thewookie Wooker 64]

I'm going to imagine what the references are going to be....

 

The opening will have Scootaloo look at her clock, leave the house on her scooter and ride it through the streets, briefly using a cart before deeming it too slow. While riding she passes a dance place, and a doctor's office which house with a sign. Before the camera continues on Derpy eating a muffin bumps into the house, derps briefly causing an owl to wake up on the roof and fly away. Then as she goes past a few more buildings a pony is in in the process of pasting a sign over another sign with horns at the top (continuity nod) and the new one could say "on the Power of Love" then she rides up to her school and the theme starts.

I really don't think I'll get any sleep until the episode is watched by me about five times, to fully understand it.

[Faithful Dawn 8]

I have a feeling its just that Twi's going to be bolted.

[Arashi Takamine 123]

I wonder if it's a premonition to the season finale?

 

Or maybe it's something silly like she winds up stepping in Poison Joke again.

 

 

Anypony else wanting to see that happen?

[Envoy-in-exile 101]

Can't wait. This has potential.

[Shteev 11]

Twilight broke Doc's rule about time travel...

 

Aside from that, Twilight's been pretty tame lately, less Lesson Zero and more Season One Twilight... why wouldn't she just /listen/ to Future Tuesday Twilight?

 

With what Twilight's been freaking out about lately (TARDY!), the sentence was probably "Whatever you do, don't worry about it."

[Yukito 9]

Celestia invents two androids to kill her old rival Starswald the Bearded, but they go rouge, kill Celestia, and destroy all of Equestria. Also she has a third android in the works made up of all the cells of all of the strongest ponies ever. It's called Cell, and its primary objective is to absorb the other androids to achieve its perfect form.

No where have I seen that before?

Did Iron Will take the credit for destroying the Pony Andorids? Will Spike ever become the King of All Dragons?

Found out next time in...PONYBALL Z...KI IS MAGIC

[BronyPony 575]

Back to the Future references, that is going to be interesting.

[Yellow Diamond 7,568]

Twilight broke Doc's rule about time travel...

Well, she also ignored the time travel "rule" from Terminator: no inorganic material can pass through the time travel device.

 

Then again, "nude" Twilight appearing in the middle of Twilight's library doesn't have the same impact of a giant nude Austrian man teleporting into 1984 Los Angeles.

[Queen Cassie 3,057]

No, no, see, it's an extra joke. In Terminator, the time travel prevents you from wearing clothes, so you show up naked when you're normally clothed. But Twilight is normally naked, so she shows up clothed because she normally isn't.

 

See?

...

 

Oooh! Well, count me as slow on the uptake. I guess I got distracted by the sub-reference (i.e., MGS) to the Terminator reference.

That made so much sense that my brain hurts now from accepting it.

 

Still not sure why she's dressed like one of the SNAAAAAAKEs though... Not that anything's wrong with that.

It might be a super subtle reference to a small movie plackaged on the Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence extras disc which in itself had a reference to Terminator. Generally speaking, however, I think they were referring to super soldiers, with Snake fitting the bill.

[Queen Cassie 3,057]

It could also be a reference to Snake Plisskin, whom Solid Snake was based on, from Escape From New York.

Quick: someone make a promotional poster for Escape from Ponyville.

Thank you for that.

That picture is beautiful, but also painful to see...at least for people who've played the game and who understand what's about to happen.

I wish I could travel 12 hours and 15 minutes into the future right about now...

Twilight was wearing a body suit. That's why I mentioned "The Fillydelphia Experiment" When the sailor was sent back through the vortex, he wore a protective suit lined with copper coils.

 

I must say, there is something to be said for the visual impact of a giant nude Austrian body-builder suddenly materializing!

 

I wish I could travel 12 hours and 15 minutes into the future right about now...

 

I wish I could travel just far enough into the future to buy a newspaper with the next winning lottery numbers!

(Not to mention stock market reports, sporting events)
