I think we should keep these teaser shots in a single post, Seth. Just update it when we get more.

NinesTempest said...

Well, after all these recent images

I have a lot of theories about... well, the location of Stone Prison, mostly...

ZAquanimus said...

MOREREEEE

WE NEED MROE!!!

"Luna! Put that away! I apologize for my sister, she has an obscene sense of humor."

Alexstrazsa said...

Mother of Celestia, what is going on. I'm excited.

WhatPayne said...

Oh, dammit! These screens are getting me excited about the new season... Way too excited.

KShrike said...

So it's obvious that ep1s2 is taking place inside the palace.
But what is happening?

dsad3000 said...

I named it that way and send it, and now its being used in eq
I can die happilly now... (not really, i wanna see 2nd season >_<)

Killsteal_Wolf said...

So is this Discord making an entry. Or something secret that Celestia is holding onto...

Speculation time!

NinesTempest said...

@KShrike
I'm guessing... that the Stone Prison that is housing Discord is inside the Palace.

It's kind of the only good way imo, to introduce the villain when the episode appears to take place mostly inside...

Firleycat said...

So we have Celestia dramatically opening a door, the mane six shocked, the mane six bowing to Celestia and now this. I like teasers but can we have something that isn't from this one scene.

I'm still excited though so mission accomplished Hasbro.

Saturdays at 9:00 A.M.?! ... I hate my Saturday class.

Is that the mane cast on the window on the right?

MisterTTG said...

Ugh, Rarity looks terrible in that light. It really shows her age. =P

Bucking called it on the Facebook page
>like a boss

Brevity said...

this doesnt have the rose vine art along the edges of the hallway carpet thing (which was broken.) also the standing order has changed (see http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/09/ponies-gasping.html )
im thinking one of the two is just concept art.

Nintyuk said...

STOP WITH THE TEASERS, STOP WITH THE TEASERS
STOOOOOOOPPP

Ewyndall said...

@y2kyle89
Yup, check the previous Season 2 image post, where the mane 6 is gasping. You can see the glass windows telling the stories of Equestria, and the right foremost is showing the mane 6 as they battle Nightmare Moon.
Yes, this production team is THAT awesome :P


Also, I'm getting excited haha.
Over ponies rofl.
Anyways I wonder what will happen :)
Discord should be a badass. I wonder if he infulence Celestia.
Imagine Celestia turning against the mane 6, telling them to "f**k off" and such.
Though that's kinda unlikely to happen xD

Calnos said...

Gasp at something LIKE A BOSS

Open a door LIKE A BOSS

Gaze at blueness LIKE A BOSS

Speculate LIKE A BOSS

Over done memes LIKE A BOSS

Fangasam LIKE A BOSS

FlutterDash said...

I need more pony the wait is killing me!

John said...

Houston, we have fangasm, over.

Flutterfan said...

This is like something out of Evangelion!

Pony Instrumentality Project?

BigMacDon'tSlack said...

Glowy blue something? I love glowy blue something! Glowy blue something is my favorite!

Streek471 said...

The blue glow! It's television!

Jake Heritagu said...

Welp, they're doomed. They can't POSSIBLY defeat the Glowey Blue!

This is the end for our little ponies.

Alexstrazsa said...

Guys, we're looking at this all wrong. I think, in this picture, Celestia has just opened Equestria Daily on her new 70" flat panel monitor.

Blinky said...

I've never been so excited for an episode before. It's been a long wait, good thing there's under ten days to go.

You rarely see Pinkie look that serious, really makes you wonder what they're seeing.

Understatedly Hyperbolic said...

Shit, Celestia's computer's screwing up again.

ChaosDX1 said...

Oh how they love to tease us.
Will we be getting another "preview" image tomorrow?

*insert dramatic chorus music scene*

Soo mesmerizing. @_@

RapstallionJ said...

Rainbow Dash: Time for stage 3, the sonic rainboom.

Subsonic speed -> Supersonic speed -> Hypersonic speed -> Lightspeed -> Ludicrous speed -> They've gone to plaid! -> Now they're glowy blue!

Leeky said...

Celestia's face is pretty unreadable. It's kinda hard to tell if whatever's happening is good or bad (if the blue glow turns out to be something completely un-dramatic I'm going to feel rather silly.)

markocezar said...

OBI-WAN JOINED THE PONIES, IT IS HIS LIGHT SABRE I KNOW IT!

Gamerlord said...

The plot thickens...

Gummy said...

My body is not ready for what ever is making that light.

RadicalEdward2 said...

Radioactive Smurfs wandered into Equestria?

Auster said...

Holy shit. What is this?
Forged in God's very flames
Do my eyes tell me lies?
More Season 2 images
Time is neigh, I must fly,
Venture forth on my quest
Goodbye Ma, goodbye Pa
And goodbye Girlfriend's breasts

Raefire said...

Discord is a Blue Meanie?

Flutterfan said...

She's showing them "Two Ponies, One Cupcake".

ActionScripter9109 said...

Holy crap, I need season 2 NOW.

Doug said...

It's Doctor Manehattan !

scraleos said...

Oh gawd... I need season 2 now! Someone NEEDS to put these on YouTube again, or I might die.

gato said...

Celestia: My litte ponies... I call this... THE INTERNET!

Whiskra said...

It's nice with teasers like these, but soon I'm afraid to even go here anymore in case I have the whole damn season spoiled for me.

VioletYoshi said...

It's the mother of all Parasprites!!!

Hawkeye92 said...

That is so Pulp Fiction.

DaDashMan said...

Id like to see Twilight get a computer and watch the hilarity ensue.

Ozimul said...

It's Phazon! Look out! You'll become crazy, evil super-ponies!

Whiskra said...

Hmm, I just thought....

How often did we see Celestia without her wings spread out in season 1? I can't remember if they ever were unspread.

moocow1452 said...

I freaking called that it was the case from Pulp Fiction in there!

That being said, Celestia looks likes she's about ready to strangle someone, so whatever it is, it's bound to be interesting if it has Celly riled up.

Tosxychor said...

Enter Discord:
"I'm blue, dabe dee da be da
de da be deeee, dabe da
dabede dabeda, de dabe deee dabeda
dabedee dabeda, de dabedee dabeda, dabedee dabeda..."

private-enemy said...

SHIT IS GETTING TOO REAL

Altherix said...

Oh no! It's him!

"Once, I ate a whole bag of boiled peanuts."

Blue fox said...

Nine more day's. Nine. More. Day's.

Arcticwlf said...

My thought - Luna powering up.

Omatic said...

I'm really excited over the season premiere, and it worries me.

razvan252 said...

"Thanks to everyone that sent it!"

Dont you mean everypony?

Rocks with Salt said...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!! Blue Meanies!!!! Somebody call the Beatles!

stringymangoes said...

The blue glow is Discord, I think.

EonMaster said...

3 guesses:

1. they're seeing where Discord is imprisoned

2. they're witnessing Discord's escape(this could mesh with guess 1)

3. they are seeing the elements reacting to Discord's escape. The elements are never seen in their homes after episode 2, which means they are likely being protected within the palace.

gingerale said...

Found this gem to explain the glow, http://i.imgur.com/w9dAu.jpg

Tsitra360 said...

Haha, I already see an animation mistake. Wasn't Twilight in the center of the group from the prior scene screenshot from a prior post?

Mattatatta said...

@Tsitra360

She can easily move a few steps aside. You don't even know how much time lies between the two stills

@Alexstrazsa

I laughed really hard at that, harder than I really should have

codythemaverick said...

Oh my gosh...

It's the Ghostlight!

(Kudos to any Cars fans out there who get this)

DIEDIEDIE765 said...

According to the Hitchhiker's Guide, it is clearly a hyper-intelligent shade of the color blue.

ShadowCell said...

See, everyone gets the Blue Screen of Death. Everyone.

Heartmend said...

@Whiskra

There were three times I remember Celestia unfolding her wings:

In "Swarm of the Century", she unfolds one of her wings so that a parasprite can land on it.

At the end of "Feeling Pinkie Keen", Celestia makes a hard landing on the Library's balcony.

And in "Cutie Mark Chronicles", she flies up in the air while she raises the sun. :)

Derevo said...

Horror! The Horror!
Nightmare Moon is back!

Melody Pond asks you to close the blue book.
Because book contains spoilers.

NotAGoodUsername360 said...

OH. MY. GAWD.

EQUESTRIA IS BEING ATTACKED BY A GIANT, MOVING AQUARIUM!!!

IT'S THE SEA PONIES!!! RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!!!

MarkTheCat said...

The door slowly opens as the colourful ponies look on. A trickle of sweat crawls down each of their necks as though its fleeing. What could be behind the door? The group may not want to find out, but they become paralyzed with anticipation, gradually forming into fear.
Waiting becomes unbearable.
Finally, a bright, blinding, blue light bolts through as a sinister, high-pitched voice calls from behind it.

"HEY LISTEN!"

Cátsy said...

You heard it here first Discord is a Serpent-like Dragon and the Mural depicting the two sisters keeping him in check. So I suppose in order to free himself he tried corrupting Luna to defeat her sister so Discord would be able to set himself free.

If you look at Nightmare Moon's Jade Dragon-like eyes it sort of shows his influence over her. So yes I deduce that he is an chinese mythical style Dragon.

/end speculation

Kyle Greer said...

If you look in ponies gasping.. You'll see a bunch of church style coloured windows:

One shows the mane 6 defeating Nightmare Moon (Notice NMM, not Luna).

Two of them show LUNA and Celestia flying around some monster that looks like its encased in stone, looking like they're using their powers to keep it that way (purple moving from Luna, orange/yellow from Celestia). Also note the sun and moon symbols are normal.

Then there's two pictures of this monster not encased in stone, without Luna or Celestia. The sun and moon symbols have turned reddish.

Then one final one blocked out shows this monster (again not in stone) playing 3 different ponies that look like they are in agony as marionettes, with fire the same kind of red as the sun and moon symbols.

The fact that these windows exist prior to the events of Season 2 make me guess that they even existed prior to the events of Season 1. This adds to another guess that Twilight uniting with the mane 6 Celestia already knew about;

If those windows existed prior to S1
and Celestia knew Twi was going to stop NMM with the help of the other mane 5
And the mane 6 were bound to each other from the beginning by RBD's sonic rainboom (they all got their cutie marks from it - no other ponies apparently)
Celestia knew this was all going to happen - including the events of S2 maybe. Think of Celestia and Luna - she knows something about HARMONY. And she knew the harmony of the mane 6 would stop NMM from the start.

Also I think RBD is related to Celestia because they're the only two with rainbow like manes and RBD's sonic rainboom brought the mane 6 together which Celestia obvs knew about. Almost as if RBD sonic rainboom set in movement the magic of friendship to bring the elements of harmony together (put that with the rest I'm saying.. yeah you get the point)

YEAH I TYPED THIS FAST AND IM SO PUMPED FOR S2

Kyle Greer said...

and omg Catsy I was typing this before I read yours!

Vanishing said...

I got it.

It was Luna who set Discord free. She's still pissed about getting two measly lines at the start of the season and NEVER COMING BACK.

Corkscrew said...

There are a few better pictures of Discord and really he's more of a mix of discordant parts then a dragon.

Kyle Greer said...

TRIPLE POST
And I don't think its an animation mistake, in the one with Celestia they're standing together, but it looks like they all quickly moved behind twilight and the order changed!

HeroInferno said...

Glowy blue thing you say...

IT'S DOCTOR MANEHATTEN!

Questionmarktarius said...

Cutie Mark Crusaders Nuclear Research Scientists!

WhiteDiamonds said...

@MisterTTG

She's not any older than the rest of them, is she? Or rather, she couldn't possibly be by much. I thought Lauren Faust had stated they were all in the same general 18-21-ish age group?

... Somebody please do correct me if I'm mistaken..

Nelson said...

I notice something at the background those glass art thing on the right side of the picture shows twilight and her friend stopping Nightmare Moon. The other side and ones behind i cant see it well what it is.

Smugginton said...

ITS PHAZON!!...I play too much Metroid Prime...

Whistle-tall said...

It's so blue! and sparkly! and bright! and awe inducing!

It's like one corner of Celestia's castle noticed that it was not radiating neon blue light, and said to itself "No, this will not do." And then it sat down to a brunch with Ditzy Doo, and manifested oatmeal muffins, and every brony got ponified and came to the party and I was there too, and the muffins were poppyseed, and I accidentally offended the blue light by expecting blueberry, but it was okay because I prefer poppyseed, and then princess Luna gave out socks, and then I asked Pinkie to divide by zero, and- and-

...It was the best nonexistent party ever.

James Corck said...

I really don't know what scares the crap out of me the most:

- Celestia's "Oh shit!" face.
- The aehtereal blue glow.
- The freaked out faces of the mane cast.
- Or the fact that I'm really not ready for season 2.

Rainbow Crash said...

That's some good shiny right there.

Pantaro said...

So you've come this far, and still you understand nothing.
Every light must fade, every heart RETURN TO BLUENESS!

Octavia said...

It's so obvious what that glow is...

A super awesome pony rave, but of course! And Celestia is saying: "I am going to hit that dance floor like the fist of an angry God!"

Killsteal_Wolf said...

Have a look at those Stainglass Windows. Outside the reference to the first season pilot. The others have some sort of Dragon thing in them in which the two regal sisters rotate around. And another has 3 Ponies in them with Strings attached to them. Like they are being controlled like Marionettes...

Foreshadowing of sorts?

dw1482 said...

Seth, you need to stop this, or at least give everyone half an hour to prepare there minds before you post things like this. I think I might die of excitement before season 2 actually starts.

Orchestral Design said...

21st Century technology has finally reached Canterlot.

banannagram said...

Are you sure you aren't spoiling anything when you post these? I thought I already knew too much before I saw them.

aramaru said...

Clearly this is what they're looking at / hearing:

InfinityDash said...

Oh god I can't take much more of this teasing!! I hope we *don't* get any more teasers before the 17th!!

Gahhh so excited

Taylor said...

Only one other blogger thought of Dr. Manehattan and his eternally flaccid horn?

I'm dissapointed. In all of you.

Riley said...

If this was the cliffhanger at the end of the first episode, it would easily be comparable to the LOST season three cliffhanger.
Oh god, I hope this doesn't end up as the episode one cliffhanger.

Lightning Delight said...

Is it a spider? A blue, glowing spider? Get it off!

I am having such a hard time dealing with this wait. I need moar pony!!!

TearofFriendship said...

I seriously keep pondering about this scene. I have no idea what's going on.

But it's going to be epic.

Eddmario said...

Guys, it's the greatest source of power. Many have tried to control it. Only a chosen one can use the weapon to increase it's power. IT'S KINGDOM HEARTS!

Milienius said...

I swear to fucking god if this is Luna in some sort of restraint I am gonna kick so much ass D:<

Luna said...

What are you ponies doing without your lead suits!?
Just look at those irradiated bags under Rarity's eyes!

SunshineBlogger said...

The elements of harmony have been stolen!

Luna said...

The one behind sis's head and to the right is of an antler-less moose getting stuck by lightning in the head.

The one behind her and to the left is a disfigured sis with a sort of Aztecian style.

The one opposite the girls using the elements looks like a scene prior to them actually using them. The bubble on the left under Twilight's cutie mark looks like Rarity.

Maybe they're of the girls' scenes leading-up to reaching the ruins. The one could be of Rarity, the other of the Manticore, then a deformed Steven Magnet.

Luna said...

Sorry, it's a deer with antlers getting struck by a lightning bolt to the head.

Kelleth said...

Twilight: Wait! What!?! Who's bright idea was it to build canterlot on this so called stone prison!?! lol

bronydash said...

Ugh, I'm dying from anticipation! I can't wait for next Saturday!

Does Celestia is kinda... smiling? Though, I admit, in a disturbing way.
I bet is something we can´t even imagine, come on, surprise me Ponies.

jeqstrem said...

Celestia's really gotta turn down the dial on her refrigerator. That can't be energy efficient.

OH MAI GOD IT 4KIDS POPO!!!!!

@MisterTTG

Haha, all that beauty makeup and crap is finally catching up to her and making her look older than she is.
