TWILIGHT IS GOING TO BECOME AN ALICORN PRINCESS!!!  [link]

What?  Oh come on guys, it's not that big of a deal!  I actually have sometimes expected something like this would happen!  If anyone deserves it, it's definitely Twilight.  I mean she's gifted, she's smart, she's been training under Princess Celestia for quite some time now, she's the Element of Magic, I'd say she's more eligible than anyone else!

And don't give me any of this "Durrrhurr, Twilight's a Mary Sue now!" crap because you don't know that yet.  Megan McCarthy has specifically stated that Twilight's personality will not change therefore she can't become a 'Mary Sue' character.  Alicorn's aren't Mary Sue's anyhow, you can't just assume that because they have great powers.  We've only seen 3 alicorns in the show so far and none of them are Mary Sue's, they have their flaws and weaknesses and junk and they are well-balanced and there is nothing you can say or do to disprove that.

This doesn't make me hate the show one bit.  If anything, this gets me more excited for season 4!  We should all be expecting big changes like this to happen in the show anyhow.  It's good that the writers wanted this sort of change because a lot of kids shows tend to be too static and repetitive and go on and on throughout each season with the same plots and stuff.  This will change how the show works I'm sure and don't forget this is DHX we are talking about;  they know what they are doing.  

Just please don't whine and complain about.  It's one thing to be a bit disappointed or worried, but it's another thing to just go out and rant and rave about how stupid it is in ever corner of the internet and it's NOTHING to quit being a brony over so CHILL!!  And again, if Twilight still has her personality, that won't ruin anything.  She'll still be the same Twilight we all know and love, she's just got wings now and a whole lot of pony princess swag.  :iconbadassplz:

I know it's only two or three days until the episode airs but I can't help but still give my thoughts on the matter, I will however wait until the episode airs before having any final judgement, I do have some hope that the writers can pull it off but I can't help but still worry because worrying is something I'm really good at. I think the main problem I have with this is that it feels to early. Sure it was obvious that Twilight was destined for bigger things, but I always felt fufilling said "things" would be best suited for the finale of the series as a whole where all of the mane 6 have fufilled their dreams and pretty much end the show on a high note. By doing it now and then going on to a fourth season I can't help but wonder "where can Twilight go from this point?" Lastly I want to get my thoughts on the idea that Hasbro is doing this to sell toys, this may be why this is being done so early so they can make toys off of it. I know the show's original purpose was to sell toys but it just feels like Hasbro is more that willing to disreguard the show's quality in favor of pushing more toys with it. I've always feared that Hasbro could easily run the show into the ground if they gave themselves more control of the show than it's writers, it just doesn't feel right for the toymakers to drive the story instead of the storytellers. So there are my thoughts on this whole "Twilicorn" thing.

As for me, I don't really like it. Now before you lash at me, stop. I'm not raging here, I'm just expressing my opinion, and I have a few good reasons why I don't like this idea.

Firstly, I've read the EW page that talked about the season finale. And I only read about Twilight, not Fluttershy, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash. Not one word about any of them. What I'm saying is that I'm worried about the other mane six and worried that the next season will only focus on Twilight since she's a princess now.

Then there's the concept of a regular pony just turning into an alicorn. I know that I might be nitpicking, but this bugs me because it feels like an ass-pull to me. We've never heard anything in the series about that ponies, whether they be earth, pegasus, or unicorn, can turn into alicorns. And that begs the question, is it only unicorns that can turn into alicorns? Can the earth and pegasus ponies do something that can turn them into alicorns? And also, I'm really irritated that Twilight turned into an alicorn because she wasn't part of the Royal Family. Yeah, I get that she's somewhat royalty in her family, but she has no direct family connections with the princess. I don't care how many heroic deeds you've done, you do not turn into a prince or a princess because of it. Think about it, has anyone in our history ever turned into a royal because of their heroism? I really doubt that. I really hope that the alicorn thing is temporary in the next season...

Anyway, like I said, I don't want to pick a fight with anyone. I'm just a guy expressing his opinion. I'll give it a chance and watch season 4, but I'm still worried... :/

I advise you to pay attention to news on Equestria Daily or any other fan blog site. They go on to say that Twilight ended up turning HERSELF into an alicorn when she has to find out how to undo her cutie-mark switching spell. I know everyone has their own opinions but what you just told me sounds more like judging before knowing and jumping to conclusions based only on what you see and not even waiting to see how the real thing ends up playing out. Not a good idea...

All right then, I guess I got some facts mixed up, and I thank you for pointing it out to me, but the fact remains that they still crown her as a princess in the finale, and that's what bugs me the most. I have nothing against the people who like it, but for me, it just doesn't work out.

I would love to see a "Lesson-Zero-Style" Twilight Princess in Season 4 just for the Lulz (that would be a really funny episode).

Also, I'm not sure if I liked that they revealed it so early; I would have liked being surprised with the Twilicorn thing, but also I think that things will settle down by the time the episode airs...

I, for one, think it would be interesting to see Twilight Sparkle as an alicorn. And as you said if anyone deserves to become an alicorn princess it's Twilight Sparkle.

And I heard something interesting from Trinityinyang's journal that Hasbro maybe coming out with a new line of pony dolls under the trademark Equestria Girls with clothes and other accessories. And apparently some people are fretting over whether or not these will be humanized or anthro pony dolls.

That second part is nothing more than a rumor, treat it as such until further notice.

Judging from what I've read on Equestria Daily it appears to be more than just a rumor as they've just announced that Hasbro is planning on making a spinoff of FIM that's supposed to air this spring where the Mane 6 wind up on our world and are turned into humans. There's even some artwork showing what they'll supposedly look like as humans. Though the actual spin-off has been confirmed, the artwork showing how they'll look is still speculation.

Oh, and they'll also be airing season 3 of Transformers: Prime this spring.
