Jake the Sage Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 I don't get why some people don't like the way the Flim Flam Brothers were portrayed. They seemed like that exact kind of duo the first time I saw them, even if they technically didn't do anything wrong besides trying to speed up production at the cost of quality. I feel like the carnival-style conman is extremely fitting. Same here. In fact I was a bit happy when I saw that they were conmen in the next episode they were in. They just "had that vibe". I also like that they didn't learn their lesson at the end of the episode one bit. They didn't change. At all. They just upped and ran! That is actually rare in MLP when the "villain" doesn't get reformed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 They weren't conmen, they were legit. I actually rather liked them; and if they hadn't been so arrogant they would have actually won.It's funny.... That's what messed them up the first time.

The Warden Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 I was just taking a look through the list of ponies that appear in the comics, and I've found a few gems... no pun intended. Who knew there was a Japan in Equestria huh? Gotta catch em all! "What the hell am I doing in this comic you donkey!" You're a unicorn Harry Potter. "I'm going to find the One Piece!" "I JACK! The Pumpkin King... have grown so tired, or the same old thing." "In brightest day, in blackest night; no evil shall escape my sight. Let those who worship evil's might, beware my power, GREEN LANTERN'S LIGHT!" "It's 106 miles to Chicago, we have a full tank of gas, half a packet of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses... HIT IT!" "Captain, I do not see this as logical." "TOGAAAAAAA! TOGAAAAAAAAAAA!" Do I even need to say anything here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake the Sage Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 ...major fail Jake No I'm right! Who knew there was a Japan in Equestria huh? Those aren't Japanese symb- *facepalm* Okay so Sailor Moon is based in Japan. Fair enough . . . fail on that part.though you could've made it clearer But I was still right in saying that those aren't Japanese characters, but instead the symbols for the planets- it being Sailor Moon and all. I find it odd that I'm still able to recognize Uranus' symbol even though I've only ever seen it a few times . . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 Pony-Mars would be pretty scary if you think about it.I actually remember when someone mentioned all the Sailor Moon-esque ones in the comics.Like, IDW goes out of it's way to be this amusing, and it just adds a whole 'nother level of interest, mostly because of the easter eggs n' junk. Anyway, I found this on KYM:I thought it was rather amusing, because, also, someone left a comment saying:you know what, girls took away warewolfs and Vampires from boysso boys are taking pony’s and unicorns from girls.ahh neutrality againWhich is actually pretty funny how that turned out(Or at least as far as the comment implies).That aside-Aside from the Sailor Moon ones, the One Piece-ponies are my favorites of those. I mean, I've never really been a fan of Once Piece, but like, they had a whole pirate-esque adventure in one of the comics, so Straw Hat n' friends are actually relevant to the story, and not really just pure backgrounders.

Jake the Sage Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 Silly Filly Studios released their new stuff http://youtu.be/vL4q7BBzanI Cool stuff *ahem* JESUS F*CKING CHRIST!!! This was as good as I expect from Silly Filly Studios, if not above and beyond. They said in the beginning that it might not fit with some people's head canon, but to be honest it fits perfectly with mine. I not only love that it wasn't Celestia and Luna, two powerful Alicorns, who could defeat Sombra. No. It was only the more powerful Nightmare Moon, who had the best line in the entire thing, "What are you!?" "Me? I'm a nightmare!", who defeated him. It is also nice that Sombra began to tempt Luna into siding with him, knowing what her future would be, but ultimately it was that temptation and the very use of his own powers that lead to his downfall. To me this fits into my head canon perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 With regards to Sombra-Ok, here's a question that I'm suddenly curious about; If you could have anyone voice Sombra, and I mean literally any 1 person, who would you have as his voice actor?(Since, you know, he never actually said anything anyway)Now we'll call ourselves "Animal Janes" now that Hasbro copyrighted "Brony"It's funny, though... They seemingly copyrighted it, with a song that's a parody of another song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Warden Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 Tim Curry, just, Tim Curry. He would make Sombra purr in just the right way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since, you know, he never actually said anything anyway. Tim Curry, just, Tim Curry. He would make Sombra purr in just the right way. Y'know I had no singular person in mind until Broken said this. Yes. Yes all the way for Tim Curry voicing Sombra officially! He literally plays some of the best villains I've ever heard. Even in bad movies he plays well voiced villains. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6uaDMhzij8 If it wasn't him though I'd say the person who does Sombra's voice here would do an excellent job: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULvmbAb5NlM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Warden Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 For the Alt!Sombra though, Christopher Lee. Alt!Sombra seems like the type of Pony that would have a deep imposing voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 Saw these on KYM just now, it's Meet the Pyro, with Spike has the Pyro:http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/763/547/775.pnghttp://i1.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/763/549/a6a.pnghttp://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/763/555/1f0.pnghttp://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/763/550/1f1.pnghttp://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/763/553/e2e.pnghttp://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/763/552/642.pnghttp://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/763/556/c37.pngWhats pretty neat about these, are the aesthetic/dialogue changes and what-not, in order to make it more accurate to Ponyville.Plus, the small details really add to this; Spike having letters instead of flares, Twi being Medic for the sake of Spike assisting her in medical stuff, etc, it's just a rather amusing recreation in general.
