My 2nd Live-Action Inspiration for How I View the Storm King, as Well as Keep Him in Character · 5:02pm Feb 12th, 2019
This clip I’m sharing, and this blog here, are made to show you all what another one of my inspirations concerning the Storm King are.
Take a look:
Even though Norman Osborn hasn’t always been a villain, I can’t help but admire the Green Goblin side of him, incorporated into him after an experiment he did in the film. There’s a certain humorous and malicious side to him that I find matches perfectly with the Storm King. His intention is also something that I find really matches with the intention Storm King displays in my story, which is to cause malice everywhere he goes.

What is it about the Storm King that gives people evil coporate businessman vibes?

Not everyone got that vibe.
Take me, for instance. I think he acts more like an anti-brony; he hates the "cute pony" thing, and does whatever he can to destroy Equestria.
Sounds familiar, doesn't it?

The Storm King: insufferable anti-brony Hasbro CEO by day; fearsome, mentally unstable crime boss by night

"The fanbase, Larson! First...we attack the fanbase!"
"The itsy-bitsy brony went up the water spout...down came the Storm King, and took the brony out! Ahahahahahaaaaa!"
"Spotlight Splash, you slime! Who's the artist who draws the pictures of the Elements of Harmony?!"
"Had you not been so selfish, your little Button Mash could have had a long run, but now that you've really ticked me off...I'm gonna sue his creator...nice, and slow..."
(while going over G5 plans...)
"Back to formula..."
I seem to be on a Dafoe!Goblin quoting mood right now. xD
Edit: In hindsight, I think I got a little too meta at the end there...
Youre making a new generation of MLP? Do you even know HOW MUCH WE SACRIFICED?!!
In a way, there's a bit of this 'anti-brony' vibe when it comes to The Storm King. It's either that or it's just easy to assume he's a representation of the corporate industry, especially how it drives the show only to promote toys (Hence the merchandising to promote himself). And to me, this power hungry villain would rather take pleasure in seeing the entire world laid to rest because of his lust for destruction and suffering not thinking that if every kingdom was destroyed and no one to assume control over, what would be left of the world if The Storm King is all that remains? Not even his minions would want any more to do with him even though they are in service to The King for whatever reason (Like perhaps as a form of debt or something). Either way, I can see why this rendition of The Green Goblin is what people would think of when we compare him with that of The Storm King if only for the matter of how much sense it makes.
