  1. And yet several of us noticed the reference immediately. All that was needed to make the connection was a public speech in front of a large audience and a declaration of being the luckiest.
  2. Ah yes, that was a nice touch, and, being so early in the episode, was easy to forget to discuss.

  5. Welcome! Personally, all I need of this site is the "view new content" button to see what people are actively chatting about, and the homepage so I can see the new pictures that our members have submitted. Role Playing is a big part of this site too, but if you are interested, someone else will have to explain it since it isn't my cup of tea.
  6. the following is Lou Gehrig's farewell address. Skip to about 1:05 and listen for 20 seconds: The reason the line "I consider myself the luckiest man on earth" is crazy is because his health was in a terrible decline that had robbed him of his favorite past time, and doctors were powerless to help him. LOL. I am eagerly anticipating her comments as well.
  7. Kinda like Twlight and Celestia's relationship has changed? By which I mean, there is still an important relationship, but it won't be exactly the same? No worries here.
  8. It is comforting to know that when Twilight gained wings, they all crowded around excited for her, rather than the event creating distance. Those gals know her too well for it to put any kind of wedge between them.
  9. I am undecided between "wonderbolt academy" "keep calm" and "magic duel" but I voted for the wonderbolt academy. Actually, the finale might be in the top three...
  10. Has the show ever defined Alicorn, or declared anyone else an Alicorn? The only other reference I can think of was the "alicorn amulet" which doesn't help me figure out of it specifically means all three types.
  11. On valentines day I got a very special note. The kids that I watch MLP with got me an MLP "be my valentine" card!

  12. Lets get too complaints out of the way first: 1) I knew she was going to get wings. I try so hard to avoid spoilers, and I got the news from not less than 6 different sources unsolicited and inappropriately. I'm a little bitter about this. 2) The dresses at the end were substandard. Otherwise: WOW! You guys have already had many great observations, so I will try to add a unique perspective... Pinkie's take-a-drink-so-she-could-do-a-spit-take killed me! The animals cooking rainbow dash into stew was sooooooooooooooo cute! My worldview has room for ponies that are all three types of ponies or only two types. I haven't decided what Twilight is yet. magic MUST rhyme to work right? Interesting tid-bit I am glad Twilight's proportions didn't change. I was afraid that she was going to get taller. Tons of great effects, from the eyes rolling memories, to Celestia's special Celestial hall of memories... Celestia had a few lines that MADE the episode for me. Upon becoming an Alicorn, Twilight's first thought was to ask Celestia if she was going to lose her mentor. The response was twofold: 1) she wasn't losing her relationship with Celestia but 2) it was changing in a new and special way. If that was the only thing that happened in the entire episode, I would have loved it.
  13. They made a movie for Flowers for Algernon? The book was incredible.
  14. From the looks of the first page, Linkhopper has completed a line and Fawkes has completed a picture. We are more than halfway there, and STILL ahead of schedule! Can we get updates when the game moves forward? When did Fawkes' picture make it to Sparkleheart?
  15. You are living in Spain? Does that detract from your viewing pleasure? Typical movies are in the language of the viewer, rather than in a (nearly) dead language. Typical movies are NOT 4 hours long. Watching "dances with wolves" is mentally exhausting. Even though I own it, as it was cheaper to buy than to rent, I will probably never watch it again. It seems that my description of the movie is heavy on the "why not to watch it again" and light on the "why you should watch it once". Therefore: Note that it won 7 academy awards including best picture. It is a beautiful film full of emotion, including poignant moments that stun you. The character change in Dunbar is radical AND believable/natural. The ending is appropriately bittersweet. You are taken on a deep journey, and it could very well change the way you think about moments in American history.
  16. I couldn't finish that one even once. But I did like the gimmick. I'll add "dances with wolves" to the list. It is a fine movie with many redeeming features, but the pacing is slow and it is LONG. The pacing and length make sense with the story, since his integration into the tribe is based on incremental trust. By the time he gets back to the military outpost, you have forgotten about it! A second viewing would be hard because not only do you have to invest a great deal of time, you also must invest your mind fully because lots of it isn't English!
  17. Beautiful mind is almost one of mine as well. I did leave the theater just a little disappointed though, and no one who plays go should watch it. That part was painful. For "sixth sense", I watched it twice back-to-back because I wanted to see all the stuff I missed because I didn't realize REDACTED the first time through.
  18. also, those shoes are double-plus-cute.
  19. yeah, next year maybe : )
  20. Cloudsdale lost ginger...let it go... : )
  21. Because someone like you donated a very specific amount to make the total donations a nice round number, and it seemed silly to add a troll donation.
