Super-Speedy-Spoilery-Synopsis and Discussion


Sweetie Bot is tired too

Looks like Shuup's going to delve into the new episodes in greater depth, but while we're at it, what were your favorite parts? Which things do you think will become memes, not counting those that already have? For anyone who hasn't seen the episode yet/doesn't want spoilers, don't go past the page break.


So to get things started, here are some highlights of the episode, in miniature:

>Sombra is best Lost-esque smoke monster 
>if Equestria is Skyrim, the Crystal Empire is Winterhold 
>Library = College of Winterhold 
>otherwise it's a fortress of solitude reference 
>hexagonal eye sparkles ftw! 
>why can't I hold all these songs?!? 
>Called it! Sombra has a ridiculous red cape. 
>pretty epic dark magic stuff 
>GRAVITY reversal! 
>stairs, stairs, everywhere! (stairs X Sombra is OTP) 
>nightmare door -> so many feels
>awesome spoilers in the commercials 
>GAK is the new gyro bowl
>"King Sombra is best plot device" 
>3 pieces of hay and a straw = best hat ever 
>"Who else wants a flugal horn?!" 
>Fluttershy jousting 
>"mmm… funnel cake" 
>Pinkie Spy, Fluttershy costume, stilts out of nowhere 
>absurdly nerdy twi is best twi 
>King Sombra is best Sauron, the crystal castle during his reign is best Eye of Sauron
>Shining's Epic wife throw
>Griffon Statues
>Go home Berry Punch, you're drunk
>Twilight has Sharingan?

I'll add to this list as people suggest/discuss things in the comments below.
