Tirek probably didn't have all of Discord's power.
Yeah, you could eat a pile of sawdust, but are you going to get much value from it?
That's somethign i found myself wondering the whole time he was captured, How Could Tirek absorb the powers of an entity who is apparently stronger than any Alicorn alone can handle with out extra power from the Elements of Harmony? Which themselves are or were seemingly the only things that could really pose a threat to our amazing Chaos God Discord.
Even then when his powers were drained he seemed to be more beaten up over his betrayal of the ponies and then his betrayal at the hands of tirek he didn't seem particularly powerless just kinda sulky.
That's dumb, no you didn't.I fixed that for you.
I don't want another EQG movie unless they include gangstas.
I don't think I was clear. I'd rather Twilight's Kingdom had been a movie with a similar budget/duration to EQG

I did as Sheogorath doesn't talk like a pony.

Yes Sir! that would've been awesome.
It depends, really. Either Discord's reasoning was emotionally impaired, or this is true. I'm sure it's not what McCarthy meant, but it makes 100% sense if you're not a fan of Discord getting softer after S3, so I would accept any of these as true.
Discord is basically the Sheogorath of Equestria, to be quite frank.
If that was what they intended, I'd be a happy man. I was hoping he'd go double agent, but his actions near the end made me scrap the idea
Mmhm. It came off as an act in the interests of buying time. Their un-combined abilities may have been able to take him out, but the element ofpointing out how Celestia's plan was flawed (who said her plan was perfect?), etc.
Yeeeeeah, it's part of why I was getting tired of the "Twi isn't important enough" dialogue. If they'd ended it after spike's bit, I would've been fine.and that the first song was nearly useless and visually uninteresing.

This. There's enough unanswered questions and vagueness(not just the first 2-parter) that makes it difficult to see if this is a series of coincidences, Pre-Planned by one or more of the Major "Elder" characters, or somewhere in between. I lean towards pre-planned. If a magical box popping out of the tree of harmony(which only those three are aware of) is unlocked by the testing of their specific elements and not only upgrades their own power, but happens to plant a miniature castle where the library used to be...I mean really for me i think i'm leaning more towards the discord planned this route this whole season he had been showing up rather randomly to do stuff and try the ponies patience testing their friendships with him as it were. The question here is why? Was he just that Curious or did he have this in the works the whole time? He knew things about the tree of Harmony obviously from the get go and seemed to be manipulating things in a way that we couldn't quite see, or at least i felt some of the episodes implied.
The princess understands the risks and explains that she has a use for Discord's magic if it can be reformed to serve good instead of evil, and entrusts Twilight and her friends with that very task.
Or that was Trollestia telling them to free Discord...
He was reformed in the 3rd season right? Doesn't celestial say she needs him for something during the episode? It's never revealed what for though is it?...just sayin...this conspiracy could run pretty deep.This.

...Yeah, I think Celes/Luna/Discord have had this planned for a significant amount of time, somewhere at or after the events of Keep Calm and Flutter on. Celestia asking to free Discord just for the lulls seems less-than-legit. For now, it's just a theory...

And as far as I know, the "use" never came up after he was reformed.
Oh you, why can't you just stick to *plausible* theories about MLP like IT?
His two best points though, the ones I can agree with the most, were that having Discord learn his lesson AFTER Twilight demanded his release would have made his arc's resolution much better structured/clear, and that the first song was nearly useless and visually uninteresing. Couldn't the lyrics have had more substance? Couldn't the princessesses have been, oh I don't know - FLYING AROUND THE KINGDOM DURING THE TWILIGHT WITH PRETTY STUFF GOING ON? Why stand still on a balcony staring at Twilight for 30 seconds with a sad face? Why not be more direct about "Look, you kinda have to figure out your role yourself" instead of making it sound like "Hold on missy, we'll give you... something... someday" ----- something that contributed to the "I want more" impressions from Tommy and others.
I didn't think that song was useless or uninteresting, I thought that listening to Twilight moping about not being given enough power in song was hilarious. Kinda reminded me of "Revenge of the Sith".

Cool with me, though I'd personally go for a darker background.Thoughts of me using this as an Avatar Here? or a Modified variant as an avatar here and elsewhere?
lol. I like the structure, but the colors don't mesh very well. Maybe they'll have a "Twi repaints this crappy house" episode for S5.That is the ugliest freaking building I've seen since my 7 year old sister made a building in Minecraft out of Diamond and Gold blocks.
