Re: My Little Pony XXXV: The Thread Everypony Should Know
new eps
Spoilerwell, not really all that great of an episode.
aside from the pony geneology bomb.
a few snipets of pikie songs
I did enjoy the mid episode suddent mood change to exorcist/scary scene
but then they followed wth massive baby magical and flight ability? Really? So much fan expaining to do, cause the cake kids might just be the next generation elements or super babies.
who wrote this episode?
Charlotte Fullerton.... not her best I'd say. probably a forced premise.
it's filler status for me."Winning with friendship means winning at life!"

Re: My Little Pony XXXV: The Thread Everypony Should Know
New Ep
Spoiler
Pony interracial relationships confirmed for canon.
First names for mr. and ms. Cake, through I haven't internalized them yet.
young ponies can walk quickly, fast maturation confirmed.
Pinkie is eager to help, aren't allowed too before all other options are exhausted.
Harder than you thought huh Pinkie, who would have guessed
song, not anything particularly special.
Beware of misplaced pride Pinkie, when you desperately wants help, then somepony assuming that you would want help is not negative, it just means that they know you.
By Celestia's mane those babies are crazy powerful! already flying around with a full grown pony at their age, or phasing through things.
The cakes are going to have it rough until their kids grown up some more.
Ending as expected but still good.

Re: My Little Pony XXXV: The Thread Everypony Should Know
New ep.
Spoiler
Hnnnng!
Hnnnng!
The Cakes are named. Time to update their cards.
Yeah sure it makes sense Carrot. You and you anxiety stubble can rationalize having a unicorn and pegasus all you want.
Rarity explained Pumpkin's magic but what about Pound's fight. Why can't the older Scootaloo fly? Is Scootaloo stupid?
HNNG!
Carrot Cake. GOOD DAD! Helping out. Changing diapers. Burping the baby. Carrot Cake
Nice episode.

Re: My Little Pony XXXV: The Thread Everypony Should Know
SpoilerI do find it hard to take the happenings of this episode literally, unless these two kids really are the next generation of superponies.
Given the change to a horror theme near the end, I really do think that Pinkie Pie at least partially hallucinated, or at least mentally exaggerated what was happening. Pumpkin cake magically snapped a metal chain on screen and Pound Cake was strong enough to fly Pinkie Pie through the entire house. That shouldn't be literally possible (alternately: earth ponies really are that oppressed by their superior classes).
SpoilerAh, thank you. That's a nice homage and it's good to know they're doing even more shoutouts than I'm catching.

Re: My Little Pony XXXV: The Thread Everypony Should Know
New Ep (On Scootaloo):
SpoilerI thought it was kinda obvious, since Unicorn babies have surges in magic, wouldn't a Pegasus baby be able to have a surge in their Pegasus magic (ie, flight)? Hence why Pound Cake can do all that crazy flying stuff, while Scootaloo as of yet can't.
An alternative theory I saw in the Equestria Daily comments is that at one point the baby's mass is small enough compared to their wing strength to fly, then they grow and they become too hevay to fly until either their wings strengthen or (my theory) their pegasus magic kicks in.Avatar by Lord Fullbladder

Re: My Little Pony XXXV: The Thread Everypony Should Know
New episode
SpoilerCould just be a surge, something that may not carry on over into adulthood. Chaotic bursts of raw magic is how I choose to understand Rarity's explanation at the beginning. Most of the time they probably can't do such magic, or any magic at all, but every once in a while they get a surge and things go crazy.

Re: My Little Pony XXXV: The Thread Everypony Should Know
New episode:
Spoiler...was hilarious! So much fun!
Oh and hey, I saw Derpy!
SpoilerOne of the babies in the beginning was grey with blond hair. More proof that Derpy is a time traveller :P
But yeah, changing diapers with your mouth? Earth ponies got it rough.
Considering their talents, Pound Cake will be in the wonderbolts within a month and Pumpkin will soon be Celestia's new protege. :P
Scootaloo! You have no excuse for not flying!
Pinkie Pie was on top form today. And we got, what, two, three little songs? Piggy Pie!
Seriously though awesome ep was awesome.
But.... less than 15 minutes after the ep ended... there was this.
HOW!?
So Hopereaver's hair is blue? That red text sure threw me off ._.
Very cool stuff! I can picture them in my mind quite well.
On guns, I would imagine in terms of appearance that they would be mostly just tubes; no need for handles when you have TK. I think the slide trigger mechanism that was suggested seems like a good idea.

Well, here's the first few. Don't think I've seen any newer ones though.
Spoiler
On new ep: What's it called? Probably not on youtube yet but i'd like to check just in case. And if what i read in the spoilers is true, it has something about pony genetics, wich will certinly be entertaining for meLast edited by Draconi Redfir; 2012-01-14 at 10:58 AM.

Re: My Little Pony XXXV: The Thread Everypony Should Know
New episode
SpoilerAgain, about Scootaloo, I don't see a problem. Have we ever heard Scootaloo or anypony say that she can't fly? Or seen her make a failed attempt at flying. Given that she has enough wing power to propel her scooter along, with two fillies and a grown Pinkie along for the ride, she must be able to fly too. She just doesn't do it often, maybe she prefers her scooter.

Re: My Little Pony XXXV: The Thread Everypony Should Know
first thoughts
Spoilerno more 1 room clinic..its an actual hospital now
Pinkie in the nursery...classic Pinkie
really? they would ask Rainbow? I'd trust her LESS than Pinkie to watch kids
is it just me or is Mrs Cake drawn a LOT slimmer?(so whats Snips and the new colt from last weeks' excuse for bein so tubby?
oh, Pinkie...stick to being a chicken
Nooooooooo! Madame LeFlour dont jump, you have so much to live for
Applebuck Season Redux?
WTF..1 month old and he can fly? yet Scootaloo cant???!!?!??!
Nom Nom Nom
unicorns can fly with their Levitation
passwall..pretty advanced for 1 month old...future cat burglar?
D'aww with the flour babies
Pinkie Pie Ow!! My poor Pancreas
2nd watching
SpoilerMrs Cake with the tray/bottles on her tail...more fuel for the theory that earth ponies magic gives them tails much more useable than the other 2 races
try this...put your hand above your head with you fingers(barrels) facing forward...then rotate it to point at a threat behind you
now put your hand in front of you facing forward...a threat appears behind you...instead of just rotating the gun you have to rotate it AND move it to give you a clear shot around the "blockage" of your body
much like why they put tank guns in turrets instead of mounting them to the front of the tank as they did at first
of course instead of shotguns they could hover a minigun(or even a small calibre cannon) up there with a hopper of ammo being carried on their back...basically a tank setupLast edited by otakuryoga; 2012-01-14 at 11:12 AM.

Re: My Little Pony XXXV: The Thread Everypony Should Know
More thoughts on new episode:
SpoilerPound-Cake must be reference to Bam-Bam from The Flintstones, hence the abnormal strength. Still being able to fly at that age is ridiculous. Unless Scootaloo can fly and just chooses not to, still, we recall Fluttershy not being able to fly as a kid.
The surges of magic can also be a reference to Poof from Fairly Oddparents, as he could not really control his power. Remember Tara Strong played Timmy Turner there, so there is a connection.
That's how it is on MMOC, we can't post full episodes anymore. Not sure if it's due to SOPA, or Hasbro, or what. If you're searching Youtube, though, I find it easier to search by the episode name, not the number.Last edited by Pendulous; 2012-01-14 at 11:07 AM.

Re: My Little Pony XXXV: The Thread Everypony Should Know
Episode thoughts.
SpoilerI'm a bit confused by this episode. I'm not sure why. I think it's the ending. She breaks down and cries, and that solves everything? Or is it that she accepts that she can't do it and tones down her energy some? Someone help me out here?
Things I liked: Pony genetics
The Cakes asking everypony else BEFORE Pinkie. And asking Fluttershy FIRST.
Pinkie using toon gags to help her: Plunger walking, pulling things out of hammerspace, offscreen teleportation...
Refusing Twilight's help out of pride. Something I would do by accident myself.
Frazzled Pinkie: Something adorable about that.
Pinkie toning down her energy and WORKING during the letter. Sure, things can be fun and games, but sometimes it's WORK.
As for why Pound Cake can fly, perhaps weight ratios? He doesn't weigh enough to keep him grounded? Perhaps Scoots hasn't grown into her wings yet.
Pumpkins casting must be instinctual. She probably can't do it on command once she gets older, and she probably has the power from the mentioned spell surges.
Hold up, did Pinkie ever put the diapers back ON? Oh, THAT can't end well....Last edited by PhantomFox; 2012-01-14 at 11:14 AM.

Re: My Little Pony XXXV: The Thread Everypony Should Know
New Ep
Spoiler
My theory regarding Pound Cake is that he seems to be an extremely physical baby. Notice how often he's hammering things? He's even beating his table when Pinkie goes to feed them. This is my excuse for why he can fly so early. Scootaloo might simply not have developed her wings as quickly. Though I do like the idea of pegasi using their innate powers to fly as well, would explain why their wings are so tiny.
New Ep
Spoiler
That makes sense too. She could just be like Fluttershy in that she's more comfortable on the ground.
Actually, speaking of Fluttershy, remember her flying capabilities? She was older than Scootaloo is now and was still having trouble, while the younger pegasi were rushing around without a problem. So yeah, different flight development speeds thoroughly confirmed. Either Scoot doesn't like flying or she's closer to Fluttershy when it comes to development speed.
EDIT:
Pinkie'd!

Re: My Little Pony XXXV: The Thread Everypony Should Know
New Ep
Spoiler
Here's how I read it:
Pinkie Pie wanted to do nothing but play with the babies, so when she tried looking after them all they saw her as was a playmate. Hence why they'd keep running around whenever she tried to do something seriously. When she broke down they tried to cheer her up the same way she kept cheering them up. As for why that solved everything, I was under the impression that that much magic and flying had finally tired the babies out. When they calmed down trying to cheer up Pinkie the exhaustion finally caught up to them and they went to sleep.

True, but she still can't carry as much weight when flying as Rainbow Dash can.

Re: My Little Pony XXXV: The Thread Everypony Should Know
SpoilerI admit it is a little odd that we've never seen her fly, but I don't think it has to be because she can't. I can't see a reason why she shouldn't be able to fly. She's clearly not afraid of heights like Fluttershy or anything like that.
Have we seen other fillies/colts of her age flying, btw?
Also there might be other ways to be like Dash than to fly. What makes Dash special is not just her flight, but her coolness and awesomeness which you can be while doing other things, like racing on a scooter.

Re: My Little Pony XXXV: The Thread Everypony Should Know
Hey, it's not easy being the Straight Pony to the shennanigans of other ponies, and it's often considered being 'boring' or 'bland'. That doesn't mean AJ doesn't deserve any less love, she's a hero for being the Straight Pony and not resorting to deadpan snarkin' to be funny/interesting, a hero I say!
