Power Ponies - Impressions *Spoilers* (duh!) · 1:44pm Dec 22nd, 2013
Impressions. Not a review. I just want to write down things that occurred in my brain while watching.
I don't know what to think of the episode.
It was entertaining. A classic children's cartoon adventure.
Cool to see all those crazy super powers and all.
Flutterhulk was just hilarious to see.
We need more Flutterhulk.
The only problems I have with it are the problems that my adult brain comes up with when it picks apart a kids show.
like:
-does this enchanted comic books store sell these potentially dangerous comics to fillies and colts?
-What happens when they get trapped in there? are they one of the heroes, or one of the sidekicks, so they get to take part in the adventure?
- What happens to the ones who don't complete the adventure? are they trapped there? Is it like the chronicles of narnia, where they grow up in the alternate universe until they find a way out. Then they're little ponies again and only minutes have passed?
-do the comics vanish every time? Do they go back to the store? Doesn't that mean the store is robbing these ponies? "gimme your money and you can read this only once"
I think I can guess who runs that comic book store:
The girls were fixing up this royal palace that's stood empty for a thousand years? Was it for Celestia and Luna? I think I can guess how that conversation went:
Twilight: Girls, the princess wants us to fix up the royal castle.
Applejack: Hold on sugar cube, which princess?
Twilight looks nervous.
Rarity: Darling?
Twilight: OK, I admit it! I'm a princess and I wanna live somewhere pretty!
Fixing up the royal castle. Better be something that is referenced in later episodes.
