Student Exposes My Little Pony's Faulty Science
- Thread starter Logan Westbrook
- Start date
You're talking about a world where there are unicorns, dragons, mythical monsters, a pink pony that can appear anywhere at any given time, and outright MAGIC! Trying to apply science to one aspect of the show is not encouraged and just plain silly... To the point where one of the ponies, Twilight Sparkle, actually tries to USE science to explain what she can't understand, and it ends up being a pretty messed up scene... To me, anyway.
Um... is anyone else reminded of the Pokeball physics diagram?????
NO?
Well... I think that the scientific researching student had FARRRRRR TOO MUCH time on thier hands and should have thought of something more realistic... LIKE.... HOW DOES G1 MEGATRON TURN FROM *GIANT* ROBOT INTO A tiny PISTOL?????!!!!!

Oh well, that's the magic of editing for you. So if not rule 68, what proof do you have of

I hate to say it to you but since the 2nd season of MLP FIM comes out sometime this fall. So if anything it's only gona get worse for you.velcrokidneyz said:
And now having the time to watch this video I will admit, it was awesome. And he may have science but since as far back as animation has been going they've not been following the laws of physics and such. Real world physics are a choice to have, they arn't law there. But anyways I applaud him on making this, and damn were some parts funny.
Not moot, just flexible. There would still be constant laws of the universe, magic can just... bend those laws.Onyx Oblivion said:Pfft. Applejack doesn't need none of your PHYSICS.
And with the existance of magic in any universe, science is always moot.
wow, I wish my students were HALF in to ANYTHING, to do this much of calculations, and work, just to "find false physics" in cartoon and proof it! I know not if it's the love of the toons, or the love of the physics, or both, but in my thoughts, if his information, and the calculations were even based on the correct formulas, and all his terminologies were used correctly, this student deserves an A mark, any less would be a crime, no a SIN!~ I really gets puffed up when I see students have this amount of passion towards their works...
The only equation relevant to My Little Pony is Friendship=Magic.
Now, if it always holds true that Magic=Friendship, it can be applied to all settings where magic is ascendant.
For example, Sephiroth in Final Fantasy 7 invited the Meteor to come on down to Earth so that it can grow closer to everyone on the surface, maybe even getting a hug after everything is said and done. Well, 8-Bit Theater's Black Mage does have an ultimate attack that runs on the power of love, so it might just be accurate in every conceivable circumstance, after all.
That said, I'd like to see someone put Transformers up to this kind of scientific scrutiny. Originally being a children's cartoon or not, it is science fiction!
