Oh, I’m so sorry for discussing the show. I guess the only thing we’re allowed to talk about here is blind speculation, because everything else is set in fucking stone.
 
PS: You can’t criticise this comment because it’s set in stone and nobody (bar the admins) can change it. Saying anything negative about it would be whining.

@Background Pony #383E  
That’s because you are whining, no amount of you complaining about it will change the fact that it happened and it won’t be undone so shut the fuck up about it already.
 
Complaining about Hasbro’s decisions after they’re set in stone is utterly pointless.

@SeraphimDawn
 
Really? Last time I checked, FiM was a slice of life comedy and how powerful the characters are isn’t really relevant.

@Background Pony #383E  
No one said you had to like it. Forgive me if I sound rude but, you don’t have to like Twilight anymore. No one is forcing you to do so. You don’t like her fine. That’s all you have to say, but you can at least let other people enjoy it. Your opinion. Our opinion. Let’s just let bygones be bygones.

@mat5  
I’m just saying that there are a large number of people on this site and others who I believe will never tolerate criticism of Twilicorn. No matter how long we wait or how open-minded we are when watching the episodes, any criticism of Hasbro’s decisions will always be met with cries of “whining” and “you haven’t seen enough to make up your mind yet”.
 
Fuck that. I’m sick of waiting for this prophesied time when I’ll be permitted to have an opinion. I’ve seen enough to conclude that Twilicorn was a poor idea to begin with and only gets worse the more we hear about it. You’re welcome to have your own opinions, but stop trying to berate others for having theirs.

@mat5  
excluding the last one because we don’t know how the episode is…

@mat5  
All > few things…

Oh so the first episode is about Twilight? What a surprise!

@Background Pony #6009  
Besides it’s still to early to see patterns…

@Background Pony #6009  
So just because you were right about all those things that makes the “criticising something before actually seeing it” attitude right?

@mat5  
>Twilicorn first hinted at  
“You can’t criticise it, it isn’t even confirmed yet.”
 
>Twilicorn confirmed  
“You can’t criticise it, you haven’t even seen the episode yet.”
 
>S3E13 Airs  
“You can’t criticise it, I’m sure they’ll fix everything in season 4.”
 
>S4E01/02 plot summaries leaked  
“You can’t criticise it, you haven’t seen the finished product yet.”
 
I see a pattern here…

@Background Pony #196E  
Why do BPs try to force the ‘Twilight Sparkle Show’ name when ‘Twilight & Friends’ is so much better.
 
Also, Broken Record Syndrome.

@Millennial Dan  
Yeah the name sounds pretty stupid. Hopefully the episode will be a lot better…

Pessimism is Magic

@Background Pony #196E  
why don’t you just watch the episode first and then judge it instead of whining about something that you haven’t even seen. Besides a show doesn’t suck just because of a name of a spell or move…

@Background Pony #196E  
Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.  
@Dashy  
I heard Discord is suppose to have a patter song. Maybe EFN does not count patter songs as “real” songs.

I want a song :c

This is real!? Then where’s the new villain? Of course, there is none.
 
Why does someone have to teach Twilight a lesson during her first time as princess? I know she’s new to this, but we’ve seen her learn lessons by herself so why does Discord have to do it for her?
 
Then again, I’m just reading text on a screen. Maybe the actual episode will be better.

@Background Pony #196E  
Twilight is confirmed to be the Goku of FiM.
 
Others… Take it away TvTropes

…twilight sparkboom… Really…? And this is all pretty much saying PRINCESS Twilight is the better character than the other 5 and should be remembered as ‘The Twilight Sparkle Show’… Yep… This show is doomed… sigh I’ve lost all hope in this series now…

I READ THE WHOLE THING WHAT AM I DOING WITH MY LIFE

this sounds disappointing.

@Millennial Dan  
Meh. I have faith. I liked alicorn Twilight, and as long as EqG is not mentioned ever again, I will be happy.
 
Plus, hell, the show looks like it’s taking a slightly darker-ish tone.

I’m guessing the “Twilight Sparkboom will end up being something like this.
