In S1's "Boast Busters," Trixie is a moderately powerful unicorn with real magic. Oh, the Ursa Major thing is all hype, and she uses a lot of smoke bombs and fireworks, but she has enough unicorn power over ropes, rainbows, lightning, and hair to do real magical dirt to Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Rarity. When she gets hold of the Alicorn Amulet, her natural powers are amplified to the verge of omnipotence. But by the time we get down to the latest season, she has become as big a humbug as the Wizard of Oz.

While true - and understandable - in Spoiled Milk's case, we don't know when Miss Cake changed her name.

I was more under the impression she changed it when she discovered her talent for baking.

And I'm not aware Pear Butter changed her name at all, she just had a nickname that everyone used.

Buttercup.

>>36829473

Mrs. Cake used to be named Chiffon Swirl

>>36829474

Huh, actually now that I look at it, you're right. They never say her name in flashbacks, so it could've been Cup Cake before she married Carrot, and just coincidentally ended up with the same last name. Well, it's a remote possibility, at least.

And they do say Buttercup is her nickname, but it really seems like grasping at straws, since Apple Bloom, Applejack and Big Mac all had no idea that wasn't her real name. I can't imagine she didn't change it to her nickname after the marriage. All the ponies who changed their names are still the wives, and it's just hard to conclude that Pear Butter wouldn't have changed her name regardless of the feud, as per the marital tradition.

Dash - and likely many others - knew she couldn't fly. Dash herself once said "maybe you'll fly one day or maybe you won't... you're all kinds of awesome anyway".

I think Scoots has no issues telling ponies she couldn't fly. She snapped at Rainbow Dash cause Dash in her ignorance kept pushing her own flying abilities as what's special and awesome, ignoring how that must have felt to Scootaloo. At least that's how I understand their conversation and Dash's apology near the end.

I sure don't know any other white queens with a crown and yoke for regalia, and Rarity was going for the most audacious cart. It's not 100% sure though. I suspect Rarity'd be in a bit of trouble if it was.

Even having not seen this yet, I still know everything that happens, but I’m hoping for a few surprises that maybe haven’t been spoiled for me yet. The fandom has collectively flown to Syria to join ISIS, so it obviously probably wasn’t received negatively by those who did see it, but at the same time I also haven’t heard anyone say it was good, so going in, I’m expecting a meh episode.

Raking It In Nother NonymousCountry code: ponychan.png, country type: customflag, valid: 36829199[View]

According to FilmLA, the official Los Angeles film office, My Little Pony: The Movie had a production budget of $6.5 million (https://www.filmla.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/2017_film_study_v3-WEB.pdf). This makes it almost the cheapest feature film made in whole or in part in California last year. This figure is also a LOT less than any estimates I've seen on any brony website. If this budget estimate is correct, then the movie was fantastically profitable, reaping almost a one thousand percent return on investment.

Can this be possible? What are the implications?

Meh, too little too late, they probably wanted this to overperform like Teen Titans GO to the Movies, and that gave out a budget much sooner. To some it looked like a flop, to many they didn't even know it existed. Really hard to call it a "hit" when we don't know things like P&A
