Rumor: Season Two Screenshots!

Google plus pony has hidden these after the break to avoid spoilers.  She's such a nice pony.

Also tossed another since its in the comments on the other post anyway! 


Protip: it's not dinky




Looks like some new screenshots have popped up! That's a pretty evil lookin Luna right there.

Cereal says this should be rumor tagged, so rumor tag it is!

This is /co/ news though, so take it with a grain of salt! Fake stuff pops up there all the time.

(Note: I have been asked to remove the forum link, sorry doods!)

disapprove of evil luna

JKonathan said...

HOLY CRAP <<<<<<<333333

Nantang'Itan said...

Oh Lordy! We may have slightly-deranged Luna after all!

"Boogster" said...

Hopefully it's either the new intro or just part of episode 3....

Alester said...

Evil Luna is Evil. Seems she's gonna be the Recurring Villain.

MetalGearSamus said...

LUUUUUNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!

8D

Theta the Sheep said...

That one on the left looks like it could be part of the new intro... And evil looking Luna! I must know what it means!

klstixbro said...

LUNALUNALUNALUNALUNALUNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

JC said...

Luna's appearance is more than a bit off-putting... 0_o

I like it. :D

Xiagu said...

This is either really awesome or really bad, dunno which

MultiBaller said...

Origin story, calling it.

Bombedrumbum said...

*MEGA SQUEE*!!!!!!!!

LUNA!!!

Sketchy Sounds said...

I'm pretty sure that isn't an evil Luna.

pokerface3699 said...

The first one looks like its from the intro sequence

Nomad Prime said...

Oh great. Now we're gonna see ponies in black robes appearing in all the drawfriends.

Marrock said...

My money is on the theory that the Luna image is from a view into someone's overactive imagination, rather like when Twilight imagined the parasprites carrying Celestia off to her doom during Swarm of the Century.

Stargazer said...

it's LUNA!!!!!! lol

Oh wow, I didn't see that coming... I can't wait to see what brought up that evil smile on her face...

CAN!! NOT!! WAIT!!

Eric said...

so did we get Luna all wrong? She's evil I tell you!

Lawrence Gander said...

But... but... i don't want Woona to be evil! Please just a prankster PELASE!

Either way, i'm cool... my inner child-brony-whatever just wants not evil Luna.

CTVulpin said...

She's definitely up to something, and she likes what she's seeing.
Argh, why y taunt me with this?

Dr. Robotnik said...

If they make Luna evil I will murder them

Crunch said...

Context, I want it.

ZAquanimus said...

SPOIL THE IMAGES SETH,

DAMMIT X.x

Kein said...

The Luna's one should be from ep04.

d113eea8-eb1a-11e0-97e2-000bcdcb2996 said...

>Evil Luna

NO!
NO, GOD, NO!
NO, PLEASE GOD, NO!
NO!
...
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-

Nämahs said...

Ah..
*holds onto something to steady himself*
I sense a great disturbance in the fandom. As if a million fans of the cute, innocent Luna all cried out and were suddenly silenced.

Celestia said...

@Stargazer

She replaced every single item of clothing within reach with colourful mismatched socks.

(Also even if a rumor this should really be spoilered, just incase. I know I certainly don't want any spoilers)

Michael said...

I freaking out way more than I should be about the fact that Luna is present here. It's mainly squeeing, however, at the fact that there's some real confirmation that she's in Season 2! :D

Joe England said...

Dah. Might want to put this under the break with a "possible spoilers" line, Seth.

RocRolDis said...

It's not Luna! It's her evil twin, Anul!

Corky64 said...

Quickly, everyone! Jump to conclusions!

CTVulpin said...

As to the left image: is Ponyville getting a train at some point? That'd be cool.

Sir Keldeo said...

I will laugh my ass off if they make Luna evil; the butthurt from Luna fans shall be glorious.

Duskfly said...

Did NOT expect to see Luna with that kind of a grin on her face.

My heart sank a little bit. ._.

statoose said...

This gets me so pumped! Can't wait for the rest of the season!

Seriously though, my heart-rate went up considerably when I saw Luna in a cloak :D

RichiePops said...

The top is fake I think, look at the ponies and balloon in the foreground and compare it to the opening theme song. It looks like it matches up. The background is prolly shopped.

ZAquanimus said...

SETH!!!!!
TAKE THE IMAGES OUT OF THE PREVIEW THINGY

Split Lighting said...

Evil Luna is the best poni!

Michael said...

Also, I spy the Cutie Mark Crusaders in the left screenshot, in the back of the train. What looks like Lyra's tail is also on the far left.

LyokoFreaks said...

The one on the left looks suspiciously like the balloon landing scene from the intro with a different backdrop; perhaps a new OP?

Luna does look downright evil in that pic. Potential villain perhaps? I wouldn't think so, but you never know. If the show is to get more epic and Discord has already been defeated, we're gonna need some tough baddie to duke it out with the Mane 6.

Filiecs said...

Haha! I can't wait!
Now we wait for Luna rage...

josh buck said...

HOLY SHIT, WHO ELSE SEES THE 4TH FILLY IN THAT CABOOSE WITH THE CMC... POSSIBLE NEW CMC MEMBER?

Stormcaller said...

*waves hoof*

This is not the Luna you are looking for.

Move along.

RichiePops said...

Besides, since when did a train station cut right through the middle of Ponyville?

Dr. Robotnik said...

@Filiecs

Wait? Look at the comments directly above you.

Jelfes said...

I don't want evil Luna though!

Ikusa GT said...

Who knows Luna might be up to a devious prank of some sort, though I'd be disappointed if they stuck her with the role of a villain again

Sethisto said...

@ZAquanimus

I don't think this really counts as a spoiler!

Marelyn Manson said...

The train´s there to promote the toy as well as the pink balloon, dammit, Hasbro needs to sell big time!

Stargazer said...

We don't know the full extent of what's going on in those pictures so everypony please don't jump to conclusions! Lets be patient till more information is around ( preferably the episode itself and not someone spoiling a huge portion of Luna's return ) please!

LyokoFreaks said...

@krazykillerhippo
Couldn't be; Trixie's bangs are a lot longer.

Mattatatta said...

@Nämahs

+2 internets for a well-placed joke, the extra internet for it being FiM and Star Wars related

Raefire said...

I think #1 looks like a revamped title sequence...


#2:

HOLY CRAP

LUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Afro Nyokki said...

Not sure if this is real or not, they could have just edited the opening for the left screenshot. I mean, where the crap did the train come from? It does have a timer in the corner though...

No idea what the right one means o_o Why would Luna turn evil again? D:

Sandoval said...

So, they can be fake?

Mojo said...

well time to grab my popcorn at the RAGEEE this Luna shot might cause.

Mattatatta said...

To be honest, I wouldn't get hyped about this just yet. We need more solid evidence than two snaps that look like they could've been shopped

"Boogster" said...

Luna is disguising herself as The Shadowlurker.
New meme will be created to be captioned - The ShadowLuna.

"Banished me from the moon?"
"I AM BACK!"

NDupree93 said...

Luna looks incredibly similar to how I described Trixie in my NaPoWriMo fic. Okay it's just the black hooded cloak, but still.

This should be...interesting. Hopefully we don't get a shitstorm of people pitching a fit about Luna not being exactly like how Fanon has described her. Heaven forbid the writers and creators of the show have their own idea of how a character should be written.

ChaosDX1 said...

Woo! Luna!
Woo! Evil!
Most. Adorable. Villain. EVER.

First shot looks like it'll be from the new opening judging by how other than the train and the Cutie Mark Crusaders it looks just like the old opening.

Dusty the Royal Janitor said...

Oh dear... If we get Evil Luna there's gonna be a Shiiiiiiiiitstorm...

Frankly I don't like the idea of Evil Luna myself... especially after this most recent Discord episode.

Hmmmm... Maybe she's just playing a prank on the ponies? "BWAHAHA! I'm EVILZ again!" "Oh noes" "Lol, kidding! I gotcha good!"

After all, Pranky Luna is best Luna?

marioandsonic said...

Uh oh...does this mean Luna will stay a villain?

Who knows...

ultra8 said...

Very interesting.
Ponyville train station and a mischevious cloaked Luna...Season 2 eps.3 and above can't come fast enough.

Brian Johnson said...

That's not Luna, her mane is lighter. That looks more like a stallion.

ZKPony said...

Silly bronies, Its not Luna! Its just Trixie on a dark night!

Mattatatta said...

Inb4 Luna-is-evil shitstorm

Oh wait, it's already been called.

Seth, you should probably start a poll before a potential Luna episode as a "Roll Call", then start a new poll after the Luna episode to see who HASN'T thrown a fit and punched their monitor in rage.

Jeez guys, there is no way Luna will fit with fanon, so just take it in your stride and accept that canon Luna is the real Luna.

GaruuSpike said...

I hope we have a new theme song

IT'S TRADITIONAL

...ANY ANIMATED CARTOON MUST HAVE A DIFFERENT THEME AND ENDING FOR EACH SEASON/STORY ARC

DulTek said...

Really hoping that shot of evil luna is some sort of flashback, or something... lol

Fallin' Winter said...

Evil? In my Wuuna? More likely than you think.

marioandsonic said...

Still...it only popped up on /co/ with no real source, so I'm not really going to believe this for now.

Llox said...

I have a bad feeling about this. I strongly dislike the whole Discord thing for personal reasons, and I will be supremely disappointed if they make Luna evil again. >=/

Mischevious sure, maybe. But not evil.

InFamous Spartan said...

Hmm im guessing the left pic is showing the new remastered intro since imma giv y'all the time to think it out about it, and maybe the Luna pic kinda makes me wonder if shes gonna go 'darth sidious' on her sister lol maybe i say about ep 3-24 idk im just guessing

ZAquanimus said...

Examining the supposedly "Evil Luna"
I realize, that could very well be a villainous colt.

Wasn't there something that Thiessen said about more male ponys getting spotlight roles?

70f31582-eb1d-11e0-b79f-000bcdcb8a73 said...

@Sethisto

Dude... objection! If this is real, then it's a HUGE spoiler! Some people tend to avoid rumors like the plague, and this is the first thing I saw when I came here! The last big "rumor" we had was the plot to S2E1!

klstixbro said...

I don't know about the Luna pic though.

First off, it's taken from a camera, not a screen capture program/device. It seems unlikely that they would do something like that.

Second, look at the mouth, colored a bit dark don't you think?

Third, She's wearing the exact same cape that Zecora wore in bridle gossip.

Contradictions:

#1: Maybe they couldn't get a picture at the time (can't think of any better excuses)

#2: Could be early in the animation process for all I know, I don't know what happens in there.

#3: Maybe they decided to use it again?

I don't know, just offering some points, I'll wait to see if it is confirmed or not.

...Luna....No!!!...How...is it possible??
Did you go back to being Evil......
no...it can not be......

*runs To cry in Corner :(*

I hope this is just a Random image of the web or somthing!?!
I hate to see poor Luna turn evil :(

Stargazer said...

I'm still personally hoping for a cute but mischievous personality out of Luna myself. But I'll be satisfied with whatever the show can give me. =)

Besides, she makes the stars, moon and sky so fun to watch! How could I ever dislike my princess!

Stargazer said...

I also want to note Luna's mane is considerably shorter in that picture. ( Notice how it's not covering her right eye )

DSNesmith said...

OH MY GOD LUNA SQUEEEEEE

Heartmend said...

(I derped my first comment.)

It's funny how some people mistakenly seem to think "remastered song" means "completely new opening". Noooo, "remastered" means "enhanced quality". Don't get your hopes up too high, folks.

The interview with Jayson at BroNYcon seemed to suggest Luna was not included in Season 1 because her themes were a bit too dark for children and the E/I standard.

Let's keep in mind the main theme of the cartoon. MLP:FIM is supposed to be light-hearted and funny! As somepony else said, it would be AWESOME FUNNY if that version of Luna was simply Twilight being adorkable and panicking about Luna might do to her. :D

Fon Shaolin said...

I'm a luna fan and I like evil Luna. It's a much better characterization than the pansy, adolescent fandom-made character that's been cropping up.

Luna On The Moon-a said...

LUUUNNNNAAAA!! <3

And Luna better not be all evil or I'mma be angry. >8I

l33tsaber said...

Wonder if that train is pony-powered like the one in "Over a Barrel".

kelzae said...

>LUNA
F*CK HOMEWORK. I AM WATCHING THAT THREAD RIGHT NOW.

Daniel the Brony (Mama's so proud...) said...

YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESOHCELESTIAOHLUNAYES!!!!!!!!

MY ENTIRE LIFE HAS CULMINATED INTO THIS MOMENT RIGHT FREAKING HERE!!!! LUNA IS BACK!!!!! I LOVE LIFE AGAIN I CAN DIE HAPPY OH YES THERE IS A GOD AND HE HAS HEARD MY PRAYERS

bamakid1272 said...

No . . . NO . . . NO HASBRO! GODDAMNIT, WE WANTED HAPPY, POSSIBLY SOCIALLY AWKWARD, LUNA! NOT LUNA TURNING EVIL AGAIN! WHY MUST YOU BE SO CRUEL!

Nope, not believeing it. I'm saying they put in there own Spell Nexus (NO THAT DOESN'T MEAN NIX TOO SO DON'T FLAME ME). Honestly, if that isn't Luna, it sure could pass for a copy of him.

Scribbles said...

I am okay with this. Both of them.

Really, if that screenshot of Luna is real, regardless of context such as somepony's imagination or origin story, it will still be awesome.

Harwick said...

An evil Luna would go against her rumored original role (post-Nightmare Moon) of showing kids that the dark isn't bad. Like others, I suspect that it might be from a misleading or imaginary sequence.

The only thing that makes me think otherwise is that it feels like making her seem scary but turn out nice feels like it would be too much of a retread of Zecora's introduction. Especially with the cloak.

Flutteryay said...

That looks like a screen from Bridle Gossip with Luna photoshopped in.

Danniel said...

I'm glad that this is Rumor tagged. Apparently, the person who leaked this is claimed that they're from one of the other studios on this project. (He/She claimed, not sure, 100%.)

However... as much I this looks, some of the colors are off in the pictures.
Another example is that in the intro... It looks like the area where Big Macintosh is hauling the apple cart, the balloon and the train are clashing with each other to me.

Luna's mane looks a bit... off as well. However, having Luna as a reappearing antagonist would be interesting to see. However... until this gap in the episodes is over... it's a waiting game. Time will tell.

Ikusa GT said...

@Fon Shaolin Though what would her motivation be for being evil exactly? Equestrians aren't as scared as the night sky as they used to.

Elfy said...

That's not Luna.

She has no eyeshadow.

Bombedrumbum said...

You know, if they brought back Luna (even if its very briefly), then there's a chance that Trixie might be brought back as well. *fingerd crossed* And lets face it, Seth, you're hoping that this is true as well

Screwball said...

Alright, here's my theory:

Jayson Thiessen said there'd be a "scary" episode coming, right? Well, when does Season 2 come out of this small hiatus? October.

October is a month commonly associated with Halloween, and well, scary-ness. And Halloween is usually associated with night time... catch my drift?

That Luna picture could very well be from a coming Halloween episode!

Nilsareth said...

Luna is portrayed as a villian because Celestia controls the media, she doesnt want you to know the truth that Luna will set you free for her evil Tyranny. FOR THE NEW LUNAR REPUBLIC

Danniel said...

@Ikusa GT

It could be possible since NightMare Moon and Luna were the same, some of NightMare might be in her.

New stories and such are coming so who knows.

mizu-takishima said...

The screen caps for the opening look plausible, although somewhat cluttered.

The Luna Screen cap though, I'm not entirely sure. It seems kind of out-of-nowhere...

innatta said...

I'm going to assume Luna is being framed :/

Alexstrazsa said...

If Luna ends up being a new 'villain', I'm going to be a little disappointed. However, as one user pointed out, this might be someone's overactive imagination (which I am PRAYING for at this point). I'd rather see Luna as a good character instead of scheming against Celestia.

But really, if this turns out to be Day = Good and Night = Bad, I'm going to be an extremely sad pony. Grr... I'm just... I like any mention of Luna, but I don't want to see her in this kind of light.

I kinda... feel a little bad about this, now that I think of it. I think all of the fanon that's built up around her is really clashing right now.

Meh.

Trunky said...

@Corky64 Winning comment is winning.

Bombedrumbum said...

Also, the guy who was with Seth at Bronycon (help me; i can't remember what his name was) stated that there was going to be a new villian. Im willing to say that this just might be the new villian. After all, it does look like a villian, and.the more I look, the less I see Luna in it. (looks EXTREMELY similar, but I still have a hunch)

Hydra in a Top Hat said...

Assuming these are real, I'm rather certain we're seeing the Luna picture out of context. It's probably from an Imagine Spot of some sort (some of the ponies might still fear Luna after all), or else just a Halloween Constume or whatever.

no Will said...

How can you say 'this is /co/ news, take it with a grain of salt' IMMEDIATELY after linking to the source, which is... not /co/.

Danniel said...

@Screwball

That theory for a Halloween episode makes that screenshot more possible now in a way, but I'm still having doubts.

KlivanRobert said...

Ok. I'm gonna giggle like a filly if they do an episode where Luna pranks Celestia. I would diiiiiiiiiiie

Aranarth said...

Maybe the Luna pic is from the supposed "scary" episode?

Daniel the Brony (Mama's so proud...) said...

Theories:

1) Someone's overactive imagination like in bridle gossip and a bird in the hoof

2) the "scary" episode and the pic is Trolluna scaring the crap out of somepony

3) Luna is plotting celestias downfall (iamokwiththis.jpg)

Also:

OMFG GUYS IT'S LUNAAAAAAAAAAA

Damazania said...

I would love to have this kinda of power :D.
Post one picture taken with shitty phone camera and all the bronies go bat shit insane.

SgtGarand said...

New intro with random train and CMC on back? Hmm, not sure what to make of that, since it seems to be running through the middle of Ponyville.

And OMGosh, LUNA! I'm guessing this is part of the "scary" episode. And I don't think she will be evil. Maybe mischievous? Or in the process of telling some kind of scary story or legend to the mane 6. Based on the hood, maybe Zecora is involved as well and they are in the Everfree forest. Can't wait to find out!

showmetheblueprints said...

That intro-like one doesn't look real IMO....

It looks EXACTLY like the S1 intro except with some things moved, flipped, or added, most notably being the CMC train. And if that is in Ponyville, why the hell is there a train in Ponyville???

Ikusa GT said...

@Danniel I don't know her asking for forgiveness seemed genuine. Not to mention we haven't heard a peep out of her since episode 2. So I don't think eternal night is on her mind still

Tovler said...

It might be legit. Afterall, Jayson made an "Oh, SHIT!" face when he said there would be a recurring villain. Why would he do that if just some new character was the recurring villain?

CesarEA said...

Where's the Derpy storyboard pic at?!

showmetheblueprints said...

Also I REALLY hope that is just Luna telling a scary story, or some similar context-specific thing.

After the pilot it just doesn't make sense for Luna to be evil again, randomly.

Corkscrew said...

A point must be made.

One can have a badass grin without being evil.

Soapy5 said...

http://i.imgur.com/6HIjc.png

That is all.

Raven said...

LUNA! She looks so badass! It brings a tear to my eye of her awesomeness!

NDupree93 said...

@Tovler
why? Lots of reasons. Maybe they're planning on keeping that a big secret as a surprise. Maybe plans for the villain aren't completely finalized. Maybe they were under orders not to discuss anything that revealing about the season.

Raven said...

@Corkscrew

You are correct! Like Twilights wicked grin when shes about to shove that pill down Philomena's throat. xD

meh said...

Pretty sure the Luna cap is fake. She's ridiculously off-model. The hair shape is entirely wrong (compare), and the 3/4 face angle is only supposed to show one eye, not both. If it is real, my bet is a flashback to when she was younger, or something. I'm not in denial; I think an evil Luna would be awesome. But there has to be some reason for the model change.

The first one looks like it could be real, though. The train looks like the toy pictures that have popped up on the Chinese auction site.

Malcolm said...

I call fake on both of these. I mean, when the hell did Ponyville have a train station and why haven't we seen it before?

Sun Ray said...

Man they better not make her evil again or I will be sad, unless she turns into Nightmare Moon again because NMM is badass.

Timey Wimey said...

That's a reveal of Luna going incognito. She looks no more evil than Twilight about to administer a medicine pill to Philomena.

The other image looks like it may be an alternate opening intro balloon landing shot. Several Ponyville regulars are there, but the train and gentle hills in the BG suggest that this may not be the same Ponyville we're used to. Also, there looks to be a pony in every window of the train.

Maybe it's actually a from toy commercial.

Clock Keeper said...

*fingers crossed for Luna trying to start up Lunar Republic*

BigMacintosh said...

That looks an awful lot like spike about to catch up to twilight with big mac and granny smith from season one opener and no way luna could be evil I refuse to believe that.

Pellame said...

The Luna one looks way to off to be real doesn't feel like the show's style at all.

And the fact the color is very off, even if this was taken by a camera.

aramaru said...

A toy commercial sounds about right. Isn't that right, Princess "My wings are so pretty!" Celestia?

Sigil said...

Holy diver! This looks very promising. :D

Flutteryay said...

They're fake. Just because that leak from /co/ about discord turned out to be real doesn't mean that these two are real.

Nilsareth said...

holy shit ponies going full star wars http://imgur.com/se8b9

RocRolDis said...

You know, that may just be a weird angle on Trixie.

HiccupFlux said...

@Marrock

>>My money is on the theory that the Luna image is from a view into someone's overactive imagination, rather like when Twilight imagined the parasprites carrying Celestia off to her doom during Swarm of the Century.

I would agree with that.

Fon Shaolin said...

Wow, half a hundred comments in ten minutes, all of them going batshit over how Luna might not be the pure object of desire they wrote her as in their fapfictions.

Bravo, Hasbro. Bravo.

Epicplatypus said...

FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Calling it right now

Raven said...

I would bet that Luna just up and ran away cause she was being sheltered or something. I mean, she was GONE for 1000 years. If I was her, I would wanna up and explore the world and see what's changed in a thousand years.

MPerce said...

I get the feeling these are fake.
But if not....seriously guys, calm down. Luna's canon was almost certainly not gonna be the exact same as the fanon.

Alan Solivan said...

It's a lie.

IT'S A LIE

Be funny if it wasn't, though. Then that means thestoicmachine was right about Luna still being evil after all.

Epicplatypus said...

Guys.... the first image is just an edit using the opening theme... watch the Intro animation again...

The second one Im guessing is an edit of some screenshot of trixie or zecora....

Ligartho said...

Dam it luna, I thought you learn your lesson on the moon, but it looks like you have to be evil again.

Pyrobug said...

First one might or might not be the new theme. I'm calling fake on the second one, on account of that's far too awesome to be true.

otakugal15 said...

Wait wait... could we POSSIBLY be getting the non-woobie/possibly bitchy!Luna I want and not the sad/wobbie!Luna the whole fandom wants? 8D THIS MAKES ME HAPPY. SO FUCKING HAPPY.

Of course, we still have to wait and see, but I WANT THIS. BAD. Just to say "nyeh nyeh nyeh nyeh nyeh~"

(i mean no great ill-will. i like wobbie!Luna too, but that whole fanon for her has gotten WAY out of hand and i've really begun to dislike it)

Flutteryay said...

OK here's the dealio. Somebody decided to do a bad Photoshop job on the intro and a scene from B ridle Gossip, load it into some media player, and take a screenshot of their computer with their phone.

Mason said...

so new opening will be kinda like the transition between south park s1&2 openings to the s3&4 openings.

essentially the same thing, but reanimated and rerecorded to improve its overall quality.

LunaMyLuv said...

I will still love you Luna no matter what.

LegatoSkyheart said...

The Great and Powerful Luna?
Also TRAINS!!!!!

A Weary Exile said...

Wow, it's only rumored that Luna *might* be evil and people are already freaking out. -_-

Just because she looks devious in that one screencap doesn't mean she's evil alright? kthnxbai

Altherix said...

Firstly, "LUNA!"

Secondly, honestly if it isn't fake I'm going with the overactive imagination scene.

Honestly, it's a spitting image from the scene in Bridle Gossip.

LegatoSkyheart said...

also the more I look at it, the more it seems fake.

Luna Epona said...

Oh my word ponies. Really? I dress up with a bunch of the guards as the singing monks from the Holy grail and you all go off your rockers. It took us a month to get the chanting down and figure out how to do the board thing with some of us getting then stuck on our horns, But we agreed not to talk about that.

doozier said...

>trains now run straight through middle Ponyville, apparently

WELL WHY THE FUCK NOT

Tovler said...

@NDupree93

No offense, but those are terrible reasons. Everything except animation and sound/music effects have been completed. But anyway, I'm thinking these are fake. Suddenly there's a train station in the middle of Ponyville? True, Twilight and Spike didn't enter the town in a Balloon, but come on.

Evil Luna? Beats the hell out the socially inept guilt-ridden manchild Luna. Still, it's probably fake. I guess we'll find out when the enhanced S2 opener happens.

Corkscrew said...

Think about it...

This could easily be the episode after the next, and what Holiday comes only a little more then a week after the 15th?

If you guessed correctly that it's one of the few night-time Holidays you win something.

Ezhik said...

Because black cloak equals evil. She could be just planning some pranks and wanted to be disguised.

Ozimul said...

The supposed new intro looks cool, but the Luna looks like a fanart in progress, not something from the show.

Scribejay said...

@Tovler

Of course there's a train station in Ponyville. How else do you think they got a tree to Appleoosa?

And that image of Luna will be vectorized with full assumed body in...3...2...1.

Flutteryay said...

Even if it is fake, Luna being even more mischievous than her sister would be awesome.

Hilltopper said...

Heck this could be a callback to G1's Prince-the-musician shoutout, Night Shade, or perhaps a pre-Nightmare Moon Luna flashback.

Or heck, Luna challenging Rainbow Dash to a midnight race through the Everfree Forest. "What's the matter, are you... Scootaloo?"

Jacob Beck said...

I can haz context? No? Well, crap.

I hope she isn't a villain either. Mischievous I can understand, but evil just seems redundant and depressing.

Taralyn said...

Luna in dark cloak, sporting an evil smile?

I'm okay with this!

John Smith said...

could it be that the Luna shown is a fragment of nightmare moon?

the bees effing knees said...

I doubt they would have sold the Luna celestia combo toy if she was just gonna be made evil again. It's most likely a flashback or some other thing. I'll admit that I would be very mad to see her go bad.

THE PEOPLE. MUST. KNOW.

Seems legit. Luna looks more badass than evil to me.

Tovler said...

@Scribejay I never said their wasn't a train station in Ponyville. Try again.

@RocRolDis

Wait a minute, isn't her evil twin Celestia?

EonMaster said...

Luna is evil looking with a dark cloak? They're pulling a Zecora!

Spidey394 said...

I think she might be on some sort of stealth mission, and is giving a sly "Lets do this" look to her partner. but the flashback comment above this one seems more likely.

My comment seems to have been eaten up. Let's try this again, with feeling.

I say they're fake. I don't see why there'd be a train in the middle of Ponyville, and that's clearly just an altered opening. Look at the positioning of Twi, Spike, the balloon, Big Mac and Granny Smith.

As for Luna, that look almost exactly like Zecora's hood from Bridle Gossip to me.

I know we're all suffering from a Luna drought, but there's no need to freak out about this.

Also guys, the Luna thing looks REALLY stylized. If it is canon it's probably an imagine spot of another character.

@Tovler
Luna isn't really evil. Well... you will see :P

FliyinRacedude said...

The first screenshot is really fail, It's Ponyville over Appleloosa over Ponyville.

And in the second one, the lines don't quite match the style of the rest of the art in the show, specially at the grin.

@SIaanme

The more I look at it more it looks real to me. You'll notice some of the houses are missing from the background in this shot which gives the impression that this on the outskirts of Ponyville, the landscape and sky are also different. Also I couldn't find a single shot of Zecora with her hood that matched up with the Luna image.

I'm calling shenanigans at this point as well, but I guess we'll have to watch and see. My God, waiting sucks.

As far as evil Luna goes--

Well, "Fausted" has a nicer ring to it than "Jossed," anyway. It's like "foisted" and "ousted" ran into the creator of FiM and the three of them conceived a new word that was half portmanteau, half pun (and all awesome).

I guess I'd be willing to accept it. After all, she's basically a fanon character at this point.

Mister Jack said...

Why are people automatically jumping to Luna being evil? A devious smile doesn't always mean evil. A lot of times it means devious.
