That's totally season two episode one (According to the numbers in the direct link:
mlp201_Cast_worried.jpg). Lets flip out! (This is from a Discover press release, you can find it here! Thanks to Andy for the heads up )
Apparently Twilight Sparkle can clone herself too. I'm not sure where the rest of the images come from. their labels are all over the place.

ATTENTION EVERYPONY!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeletePLEASE DIRECT YOUR ATTENTION TO THE FIRST STAIN GLASS WINDOW ON THE RIGHT....ALSO THE OTHER WINDOWS PRESENT INTERESTING QUESTIONS LIKE
...WTF IS THAT MIXED UP FREAK MONSTER IN THE SECOND WINDOW FRO THE LEFT?
Two twilights in the same panel? TWILIGHT REMEMBERS SHE CAN TELEPORT. That kind of annoyed me in the first season. She used it a few times then forgot she could do it. Granted, using it would have broken a few episodes but they could have done something with it.
ReplyDeleteA few people have mentioned the stain glass window of the mane 6 but has anyone checked out the third one on the left? It looks a bit like the Cutie Mark Crusaders......being used as puppets. That can't be good.
@Firleycat
ReplyDeletethey're the wrong colors for the CMC, but still...
@Gravenstein
ReplyDeleteStill could be them, Windows can be very vague when they want to be.
I'm really hoping that those window paintings is both historytelling and foreshadowing *wants Discord to take controll of the CMC to sabotage the Mane 6's work*
ReplyDeleteCelestia is accepting dark-skinned guards. Hooray for diversity!
ReplyDeleteOn another note, one does not simply trot into Canterlot castle.
EVERYPONY! Look at the stained glass windown on the sides of the first picture! It's someone using string-puppets shaped like ponies, Nightmare being defeated by a dragon, and NIghtmare being defeated by the Mane-6! There is also a green-looking one I could not see clearly!

There are some interesting things going on in that picture when you look at the background. What caught my eye is on the right side of the frame. Look at the stained glass window...its the Mane 6 defeating Nightmare Moon. All of the others but one seem to feature dragons in some way, which is interesting.
Discord may be some kind of dragon. Now, I know there was that alicorn picture that was put out, but I'm just working on the stained glass in the background. The window that is right above Fluttershy's head...its the the yin-yang of Luna and Celestia, but with an Eastern Dragon trapped in the middle. Either that, or the dragon is breaking free. If nothing else, they may play some kind of role.
The other window that really catches my attention is the one that Rainbow Dash so rudely obscured with her head. A yellow Pegasus, a white-ish Unicorn, and an orange Earth Pony. Like I said, Dash is blocking the rest of it with her face, but you can see what looks like a Griffon or Dragon's talons manipulating the three. They are hooked to strings like puppets.
I think I can tell you those AREN'T the CMC. They ARE however the three types of ponies - unicorn, pegasus and earth.
ReplyDeleteJust on another thought if Celestia and Luna did create Discord - then if he was their first creation - it would explain why he is a bit of everything la Frankenstein. First works tend to be all over the place.
All I could think of when I saw the picture behind Rainbow Dash was "Dance, puppets, dance!"
ReplyDeleteThe first image make me wish the show aired in 1080p. So much detail.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the first episode will take place mostly in the castle. Really looking forward to it, I always liked the architecture in Canterlot.
The third image is the start of a final boss in an RPG.
ReplyDeleteKefka, you are going DOWN!
why hasn't the hub come out with an official season 2 commercial yet?
ReplyDeleteLook on the far right stain glass and you can see the six ponies in the Gasping picture :D
ReplyDelete@GabuEx: YES XD
ReplyDeleteWow. Those Stain-Glass Windows. What. a. reveal.
ReplyDeleteI don't have the time to skim through every single theory or explanation on this comment list...but has anypony pointed out that that Dragon Creature is most likely Discord?
Discord, by definition: "Disagreement between people"
Now, Look at the window on the left-hand side middle. it's the best picture of the dragon we can see. Look at it's body, specifically, its limbs and head.
- Its bottom 2 legs are a hoof and a dragons.
- Its top 2 legs are gryphon and some other random creatures.
- Its tail completely changes color at the base, suggesting this is the tail of another different creature all together.
- Most importantly: It has little wings like a pegasus and a very jagged Unicorn Horn jutting from the back of its head, along with what APPEARS to be a 2nd horn like that of a Deer's.
THIS, fillies and gentlecolts, is clearly our villain. The mysterious Discord. Born of so much conflict that even his body argues with itself.
Dunno about y'all, but I'm hella excited to see what's in store now.
Isn't it obvious?
ReplyDeleteDiscord's true identity is TROOOOGDOOOOOOOOOOOOOR!!!!!
2 twilights?
ReplyDelete...
Why not 2 of everypony! :D
These are going to be the hardest 10 days of my life
ReplyDeleteMy word, the level of detail in that shot...I love that the Mane 6 have their own mural!
ReplyDeleteFirst image is exciting and convincing :)
ReplyDeleteThe next two aren't really.
Double Twilights with those weird vectors.
That whole bowing scene is taken from Elements of Harmony ending. And Rarity is the only pony with the neckalce on her. :S
It begins.... but in 10 days!!! FFFFUUUUUUUU :_(
ReplyDeleteMy body is full of hype now *___*
Does anyone have the 'dramatic chipmunk' music playing in their head when they see the first pic?
ReplyDeleteMy interpretation of the images: Discord is a Chimera who is capable of manipulating others. Luna and Celestia sealed him away in stone.
ReplyDeleteIn season 2 he breaks free and attempts to manipulate the mane 6 into breaking their bonds with one another.
OH GAWD!!! I'm already having a hard enough time waiting, these pictures tease me so! That first one is just BURSTING with detail, the stained glass windows are freakin sweet. I love the one with the mane 6 defeating Nightmare Moon, so awesome!
ReplyDeleteIts a good thing my buddy has the Hub! Gonna be having a killer premier party. Complete with cupcakes and soda and streamers and baloons and cake....Pinkie Pie herself might as well have thrown it! I cannot wait.
@Ewyndall
ReplyDeleteI noticed the necklace on Rarity as well. Why doesn't the other ponies have them?
The show always looked good.. but these are amazing! Please let the rest of Season 2 be this awesome!
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOD THEY DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT BUTTS ANYMORE
ReplyDeleteI THOUGHT THIS WOULD HAPPEN
And anyways. Rarity has her generosity necklace in the third pic?
Look at the panel in the right at the first picture. It shows the mane 6 fighting Nightmare Moon. Coool
ReplyDeleteWow, that stained glass window behind Rainbow Dash is actually pretty dark for a kids show.
ReplyDeleteThe villain apparently controling the populace like puppets with fire and darkness surrounding them as they look terrified.
Alright, at least now we know Discord is going to be played straight as a villain.
10 days must happen faster or I might die.
ReplyDeleteGUUUYYYYS
ReplyDeleteDIRECT YOUR ATTENTION TO THE MANE 6s BUTTS!
THEY LOOK HORRIBLY AWKWARD!
WILD MASS GUESSING TIEM!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMy theory based on the stained glass:
ReplyDeleteCelestia and Luna had to kick Discord's ass 1000 years before they could create night and day and bring harmony to the land.
Is anyone else really bugged by all the ridiculous errors in the architecture of the room in the first screen shot?
ReplyDeleteThe more I look at it the more mistakes I see.
For example:
There are flagpoles floating in midair, the carpet design is coming off of the carpet, the pillars aren't connected to anything, windows coming out of the wall, the bottoms of some of the windows are crooked, and a lot more.
The upper right hand corner of the screenshot is particularly dense with these mistakes.
This makes me wonder how many other scenes from the show look this ridiculous when viewed with a critical eye.
Don't get me wrong I love the screen shot, it's the most awesome season 2 related thing so far imo; it just seems strange that the very detailed and awesome stained glass windows are contrasted so strongly by the strange MC Escher architecture.
Maybe they could justify it by being Discord's fault, that he is manipulating the architecture to make it look like really weird, but it seems too subtle to be a story element, I really doubt the target demographic of little girls is going to be thinking
"Oooh the windows aren't following the rules of perspective, some weird stuff is going on, Discord is a baaaad chimaera!"
Maybe it's a manifestation of discord that only artists, graphic designers, schizophrenics etc. are supposed to pick up on? That would be awesome but it seems to good to be true.
What do you think? Have I been staring at this screen shot too long?
Please don't tell me I'm crazy lol!
So Discord might be a serpentine chimera dragon... Interesting. All the full-grown dragons in this episode, aside from Steven Magnet, were pretty goddamn ferocious, especially when angered. Add to that the fact that he looks particularly demented to begin with, and his name is DISCORD, implying that he has the ability to cause all sorts of chaos and/or destruction, and he has the potential to be a very badass villain.
ReplyDeleteHehehe I vectorized the hell out of that stained glass window:

@Coke and Cola Chill out man, they looked like that in season 1 as well (like Rainbow Dash when saying "I'm trying to save Spike") so it's probably a matter of pose and angle - sometimes it's just difficult to draw realistic butts. You really think they would waste the time redesigning all the characters in the show just because suddenly their rumps became a problem?
ReplyDeleteTime-traveling Twilight! Mystery finally solved for that 2nd picture? Is it Twilight with her future self for the upcoming It's About Time episode?
