Line 198:
It's been semi-confirmed that Lauren Faust has been to the /co/ board of 4chan. It's common knowledge that she does read (and often reply to) the comments left by the series' fans (and her fans) on her [[Deviant ART]] page. And yes, I know she has stepped down from her previous position as Executive Producer (I think she's Consulting Producer now...) It will be interesting to see how many references to the fandom, its memes and its [[Fanon]] will be in the second season...
 
== In "[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S1/E01 Mare in the Moon|Mare in the Moon]]''" we saw the [[Horsemen of the Apocalypse|Four Ponies of the Apocalypse]]. ==
There were four stars that moved closer to the moon, then they slid behind it and the Nightmare Moon design disappeared.
* Although there are lots of jokes by fans and [[Robot Chicken|other sources]], my guess is that, given the show's original [[Magical Girl|magical girl show]] premise, they really are a part of the program's story.
Line 218:
Possibly multiple someones, posting under multiple aliases. Take a look at these examples...
 
* Someone [https://web.archive.org/web/20111025154433/http://www.derpyhooves.com/index.php?static=derpyorigins wrote a short fanfic about Derpy] early on when the fandom was young stating her to be mail mare. An animator has stated that Derpy was already in the infamous scene in Feeling Pinkie Keen and the only change made was derping her eyes. ''She was a mail mare from the beginning''.
* Cupcakes - Someone working on the show knew about ''Party of One'', and wrote an over the top gruesome fanfic involving Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash as part of a grand [[Batman Gambit]] to make that party scene all the more uncomfortable for fans to watch.
* The Party Hasn't Ended - A Pinkie/Dash shipping fanfic that was finished and uploaded before "Cutie Mark Chronicles" whose climax involves {{spoiler|[[It Makes Sense in Context|Rainbow Dash using a Sonic Rainboom to clear away a bunch of dark clouds]]}}. Not only does this happen in "Chronicles", its what started the party in Pinkie Pie!
Line 295:
 
== The popularity of ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' will motivate Hasbro to renew the copyrights on the G1 ponies... ==
...leading to a [[Generation Xerox]] flashback episode starring the [http://img.ponibooru.org/images/02/02b14f657f8b589243c1279e8a08d8f6 concept art ponies.]{{Dead link}}
 
== Discord is the cause of animation errors in the show ==
Line 494:
 
== Rarity is a Time Lord. ==
She is the [[The Nth Doctor|regeneration]] of Rarity from ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20101226121304/http://www.hubworld.com/my-little-pony/videos/movies/mlp-movie-the-runaway-rainbow The Runaway Rainbow]''. Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie are Time Lord regenerations of their namesakes, too. All three are just as eccentric as [[Doctor Who|the Doctor]].
 
== Everybody is a Timelord in Purgatory. ==
Line 540:
== Someone will make a [[Dissidia Final Fantasy]] crossover with this show. ==
If only due to connecting the Elements of Harmony with Cosmos. That, and the show's and games this show is combined with tend to have a rather actiony feel to them.
* [http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/view/8995?search=final_Fantasy It's happened.]{{Dead link}}
* {{spoiler|This is halfway to canon, what with Season 2's opening villain being Discord (aka Chaos).}}
 
Line 552:
At some point, Pinkie Pie will appear and sing a song for Charlie, before exploding for no apparent reason. (What if she explodes... and then explodes again?!)
* Can you do that? Can you explode twice?
** [httphttps://web.archive.org/web/20191216072944/https://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20110131050225AAqohym Yes, you can.]
* If the producers manage to get the original voices for the three, that would be ''beyond'' awesome! Even if it's just a cameo, it still would be pretty awesome.
* The three unicorns don't necessarily "live" within the setting. You see, Charlie thinks he died long ago, and those two are his eternal punishment. Perhaps he was a supporter of Nightmare Moon during her rebellion?
Line 618:
 
== [[The Slender Man Mythos|Somewhere, somehow, the Slenderpony exists]] ==
Don't believe me? [http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/132990-slender-man LOOK!] See for yourself! There he is, in the background! And here, capped by yours truly, [https://web.archive.org/web/20120623233922/http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/133561-slender-man encircled in white]. And [http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/112065-slender-man here], that's what he'd look like! It's coming together...
 
== The small, but growing amount of [[The Slender Man Mythos|Slender Mane]] fanart out there can be at least partially attributed to the Slender Man references on this page. ==
Line 794:
Now, the Dragonborn wouldn’t be nearly as useful in her role of helping to maintain the Pony/Dragon Peace Pact if she didn’t occasionally express her powers, so Celestia is keeping Fluttershy, and most ponies, in the dark about the whole arrangement for now.
 
Yes this series of Wild Mare Guesses was inspired by the [https://web.archive.org/web/20130208070856/http://he4rtofcourage.deviantart.com/art/Ponyborn-268981545?q=sort%3Atime%20mlp&qo=15 Ponyborn picture].
 
== Obligatory ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' theory ==
Line 810:
 
== "The Elements of Harmony" is Equestria's equivalent of [[Avatar: The Last Airbender|the Avatar Spirit.]] ==
They're just executed slightly different. One Avatar gets to control all four physical elements (earth, air, water, fire), while the Elements of Harmony are more emotional, and can be distributed to different individuals. Whoever weilds the spirit has the duty to protect their land, and their 'activated' state looks pretty similar. See? [http://x4ashes4ashes.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/aang-in-the-avatar-state.jpg Glowing] [http://img.ponibooru.org/_images/f292bb102fe9542347b93675557843b0/22284%20-%20applejack%20Elements_of_Harmony%20fluttershy%20pinkie_pie%20rainbow_dash%20rarity%20twilight_sparkle%20vector.png eyes]{{Dead link}}.
 
== Discord is [[Team Fortress 2|The Pyro's]] true form. ==
Line 824:
 
== The series is [[All Just a Dream]] of an autistic Smarty Pants ==
Which has evolved into one of the greatest [[Self-Insert Fic|Self Insert Fics]] in history. Inspired by [http://www.ponibooru.org/post/view/149784?search=Smarty_Pants this pic]{{Dead link}}.
 
== This page will eventually have a ridiculously dark interpretation of the show's premise. ==
Line 838:
** Dude, clear your throat. Seriously.
* The entire series is a daydream of an autistic Pinkamena. She never really left the rock farm, or witnessed a sonic rainboom. [[St. Elsewhere|She just spends the whole day staring at a snowglobe of Ponyville]].
** This idea, which apparently inspired [http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://talkingincircles.net/2008/09/07/final-episode-of-fosters-home-for-imaginary-friends/ this] comic of [[Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends]], has found it's way onto [https://web.archive.org/web/20111030023950/http://swaetshrit.deviantart.com/art/My-Little-Pony-Final-Episode-264679428 this] comic. The only minor difference is that Pinkie is staring at the sky, and not a snowglobe.
* Celestia is a dictator, drugging everyone with hallucinogenics making them think they live in a dream world and they're ponies (because seriously, do you really think ponies can read and write?) and having happy adventures, while she oppresses everyone in their ignorance. "Nightmare Moon" was actually a leader of [[La Résistance]], but "Twilight Sparkle" was tricked into bringing her in to be drugged. Or she was actually executed, while Celestia told everyone she had been integrated into society. That's why we never see Luna again
* You want depressing? I'll give you depressing! Back in "A Dog and Pony Show", rather than put up with Rarity's annoyances, the Diamond Dogs just killed her. The reason she appears to still be alive in the rest of the series is because when Spike saw her body, he rejected the reality of her being dead and began having another fantasy sequence about Rarity being freed and living a normal life in Ponyville. Every episode since then has all been in his imagination while in reality he is in a catatonic state and none of the other ponies can wake him up.
