G3 TV Series; Catchphrases and Catchwords?
« on: September 02, 2013, 05:13:47 AM »
I'm not really sure "catchword" is a real thing, but some of these are too small to be catchprases.

Anyone else like how some of the G3 ponies seem to do this?  I think it's kind of cute for some reason that some of them have standard lines, as a character trait for them. The ones I've noticed are;

Rainbow Dash: "Darling."
Puzzlemint: "No kidding!"
Razzaroo: "Yes, yes, yes" (apparently, Razzaroo is Ducky...)
Sweetberry: "Sweet."
Skywishes: This is kind of borderline, but she ended a lot of sentances with "Oh, you know what I mean." in her first major episode, so maybe it was a catchphrase the writers abandoned?

Anyone remember ones I didn't?
I will confess to being a brony, but I assure you that the things you may not like about them do not apply to me, I mostly keep the fandom name due to nostaligia, but I do genuinely love MLP as a whole, not just FIM, and not just the popularity of FIM - I genuinely love the show (and all the others)

I feel like Pinkie Pie had some kind of catchphrase too, but I can't remember. Oh, and Minty (in very minty christmas) would always say" a little to the right" or " a little to the left"

Skywishes' catchphrase might be "Catch a kite and you catch a wish".
Star Catcher's is probably "Consider it done".
Rarity G3: "Let's do it again" most likely.

"Catch a kite and you catch a wish" is supposed to be a general saying all over Ponyville... I'd identify Skywishes more strongly with the "oh, you know what I mean!" line.

The Breezies Tra-la-la, Zipzee and Tiddlywink all had: "Then it's settled, together it is".

Squinks are more elaborate than ordinary ideas, since not only do they produce a thought bubble over Pinkie's head, other ponies can see the thought bubble.

Sparkleworks: "Spectacular!" & "Oopsy doopsy"
I think they dropped them in later episodes though.  :lol:

I love RDs....daaaaaahhhhhhhhling!

Haha this is by and far my favorite memory of my G3 collecting. Back in those days I would walk around college spouting off "Rainbows, dahling, RAINBOWS!" and get weird looks. XD

I love her voice actress, it was such a distinct voice! I was really upset when they did those animated specials at the end of the G3 line, when they were first introducing Core 7, and they got a different voice actresses for her so in the flashbacks they REDUBBED ALL HER LINES. :cry: The new voice was bland and boring!

Also for some reason when they changed to the G3.5 cartoon, they made Rainbow Dash have a new catchphrase: "Dashing!" Everything and everyone was "dashing, dashing, dashing." It was like every other word that came out of her mouth. :P

While I agree that having a character say a certain thing can be cute, in the writing industry it's kinda considered a cheap way to try to make a memorable character, rather than having in depth character exploration. Just give her a catchphrase and she immediately becomes "Oh that chara that says that thing!" Since Hasbro had limited time in their short animated specials, it's not too surprising they used this tactic a little over-much.

Also, I wonder if Sparkleworks was going to originally be a Spanish pony or something? At the end of the first animated special she says "Excelente!" which is the Spanish word for excellent. But then the possibility of a pony with an accent is never brought up again until we see Fiesta Flare years later.
Thank you Thimble for my amazingly cute avatar!

That was Dashie at her best, before the voice actress change got rid of Venus Terzo  :( I actually explained the voice change in my fanfics, and thankfully I canged her voice back!  ^.^
