Grunt Issun Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 Well, I was going for the more direct approach that he was a Hairy Potter, but Dumbledore works too. As for the symbols on the flags, maybe, and I'm about to go off on a big theory thing here, so be prepared: Celestia and Luna weren't physical goddesses yet, just someponies that the Unicorns worshiped as gods, and had those as there assumed appearance, and used their powers, through inheritance, borrowing, or simply them being the only ones who, through the use of magic, could speak to them. When Discord came, they obviously had to retaliate with physical forms, and took on the manifestation of what everypony believed they looked like. It's a bit of a stretch, but hey, who knows?

Sleepy Posted December 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 The play also makes me think many theories about Alicorns, which don't seem to be classified as a Tribe, and only Luna and Celestia exist in that category anyways. Since all the members of that species [i]happen[/i] to be the rulers of Equestria, maybe it has something to do with rank? Something achievable like Cutie Marks but a lot more uncommon.

[/quote] It's because the giant magical heart is as much of an "instant fix", "out of nowhere", or "Deus Ex Machina" as the Elements of Harmony were in the second episode of Season 1.

Grunt Issun Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 Earth directly refers to anything such as Rock, Soil, Minerals, etc, etc, etc, not just the planet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack of All Spades Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 Question about the new episode: How can they be Earth Ponies and name the new land "Earth"? Don't they know what Earth is? That's why they're Earth Ponies, no doubt. And if they are Earth ponies, they should live in/on Earth already, right?

evilfusion Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 Earth, again, is referring to the ground, not the planet. If it's in the middle of a sentence, they're referring to "earth", if that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceDorago Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 That, and it's a show about talking ponies, so logic is never a valid argument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 Ok, nevermind me and my crazyness then. I'm just over-thinking small details again. Then again, the ponies of this show have construction cranes/backhoes and working trains(Both horse-pulled and non-horse-puled versions) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
