This is the reason why people don't like him, not because he wasn't powerful.

   There is also something I was wondering about the dark magic. Could it be that the dark magic corrupted Luna into NMM or maybe Sombra was the one who corrupted her. It just seems to me that this won't be the last we see of Sombra or at least hear about him. I'm more curious on what Luna's whole deal was during the episodes anyways. She seemed sorta on edge.   

I can see this happening.    He was already sealed away when she became NMM, but it could be a spell that was put on her before that.   

I also saw this rather interesting theory:
Quote:
   Anyone else getting the idea that Sombra might have been Celestia’s former pupil? I mean, he’s kind of like Twilight in how he’s a powerful Unicorn seemingly capable of a wide variety of magic. And Celestia’s test was to ensure that Twilight wouldn’t sacrifice the well-being of others for her own selfish interests. What if some other pony failed in such a regard? And what if that pony was Sombra?   


These episodes actually worked really well opening up potential plots.

First off, awesome premiere. Second off they just announce that Bronycon is moving from the NY tristate area down to Baltimore. Good news it it's be a giant con center with room for like everybody. Bad news is its a fair bit farther from me than it was. It means I'm going to have to get a hotel. Mmm... Damn it, I better start saving. I really want to go...

Sombra looked cool and all that jazz... but I wish they could have done more with him. They just labeled him as a threat that must be stopped... and that's it. It was an okay episode, though. Glad to have these ponies back. c:

And that part where Spike looked into the weird 'fear' door and started crying... omg. My heart dieeed. ;-;

Guys, it's still Sunday. Some of that leans into spoiler territory (mostly that last picture from Grivous). We agreed that we'd spoiler-tag everything for the whole weekend an episode airs, remember?

Yeah, it's a spoiler for the end of the episode. Just make it a link and label it as a spoiler instead.

Actually, it wasn't a spoiler, just a tiny printscreen cutted out from a whole scene in the episode. It doesn't show anything about the episode(there are other more important things that happened there to call this a spoiler) but Cadance and Shining Armor's weird eyes.

But, yeah, okay then.

Grivous.

I decided to be cautious, if another mod comes in and thinks it's fine then they can change it back, but I don't know enough about MLP to nitpick.

No problem, Tuor.
But the people whom didn't watch the episode yet should know that, if they enter here, they surely will find spoilers, no matter what. Unfourtunately.
We would like to let them warned to stay away from this thread if they don't want to find spoilers(until they watch the episode).

Grivous.

Soth seems to have already established a policy about spoilers and seems to have taken the thread under his protection

Marquis de Soth wrote:
ATTENTION

Alrighty, since the first episode is tomorrow, I'm going enforce a no spoiler policy in this thread. I've looked over the suggestions and I've decided that no open spoilers until 2 days (the entire weekend) has passed. This includes no pictures as well. Any picture/screenshot needs to be in link form and be clearly tagged as a spoiler. If an old character from the previous 2 seasons is returning, let's not mention it until the Sunday after the episode airs. That'll give anyone who hasn't found out by general osmosis from the internet time to watch the episode. Otherwise, just be smart about spoilers and try to keep the pages from looking like a FBI report on the Kennedy assassination with the spoiler bars.

I will be enforcing this with automatic profile warnings.

A meme that was created, reached the peak, and got old after 1 day.

People already started poking fun of the villain (Spoiler E1+2 comics):

Thanks for dealing with that Tuor. If I miss something or I'm not on and monitoring the thread, make sure to report anything that you feel is too spoilery so I (or another mod) can have a little red flag ready for us. That'll end up giving us a better response time as well.

Spoil Filter just in case
   So after having watched the season premiere, it is obvious people were not that impressed with King Sombra as a villain. So after doing some brainstorming and knowing that he will likely return as you can see his horn fly in the explosion from the episode, I figured that maybe he represented something kind of like Discord represents chaos. Sombra is an actual word in Spanish that means shadow or shade. Combine that with how the crystal ponies reacted when remembering him as well as the cursed door's effect on Twilight and Spike. This brings me to the conclusion that King Sombra most likely represents fear which would be fitting as a dictator-like ruler. If this is the case, I really got to give Jayson and his team props for down playing King Sombra for what will likely be a better reappearance as a much more threatening villain.

Well, latest news and such during this premier got me in a good mood.    Trixie and Scootaloo    episodes. I am very happy.

Oh, and expect to see THIS soon... VERY soon...

Welp, I unintentionally left an important part of my last post out. Here is a revised version to fix both the problem that had it locked in the first place AND any communication errors that could have stemmed from it.

Here it is:

Grieffon wrote:
Found it, here's the writers' reply about the question of Luna's whereabouts during the Royal wedding. They said more will be revealed in the future.    And judging by Luna's attitude during the episode, Order's theory might be correct   .



It's just like what I said in my tumblr:

"Everything has happened yet nothing has happened compared to what will happen when all is said and done.
Fucking possibilities! The mosa frukrin posabalities!"

Life is good, most of the time.

So there's that. Almost ironic considering that I was just talking about how imagination can falsify memories.

Annnnnd here's a picture, a picture link that is.

Technically not spoileriffic but I shan't risk it, of course:

The King of Shadows, 30 min challenge

Hard to believe it was drawn in 30 min, wish I had that kind of talent.

Wishing won't get you anywhere. Try drawing 30 minutes per day for a few years and you will get there.

New Equestrian sport: Epic wife tossing.

And new trend: Crystallized ponies:

Definitely the best trend yet.

Well that was unnecessarily blunt. The statement was meant as a complement to the artist not me asking for advice. Note the lack of a question mark.

HERE IS A FREAKIN PIC.

Dj will probably like this one.

BECAUSE I DON'T NEED A FREAKIN REASON.

YEP.
