the Fellowship of the Ponies

I propose a project:
A fandom collaboration in which we take the entire text of The Lord of the Rings and then rewrite it as a Pony fanfic. We designate different Pony characters as members of the LOTR roster, and then rewrite the whole thing as if it takes place in Equestria. It will be the greatest triumph in the history of fanfiction, and will ring through the halls of the internet long after the Ponies have faded away. Will you join me, and make internet history? Yae, or Neigh?!

This started out as a discussion in the comments on the MLP: FIM main page. One suggestion so far is to put the whole thing on a Google Doc so that people can edit it live. It is also probable that we will have to get Equestria Daily involved so we can have the whole weight of the fandom behind this. Anyone else have ideas on how we could put this together?

I REALLY want to help with this. I need to find my books, but I have a feeling I left them out of state. If anypony knows where I can read online, I'll make you an official wizard.

EDIT: Anypony? Oh fuck I am so messed up right now…

It would be easy, come to think of it. All you need to do is change the characters, tweak the actions, and place it in equestria. I just nee to think of new country names…

Got it. Gondhorn.

Let me just say something to all of this pony takeover stuff:

ENOUGH.

There is enough pony on the internet. Please, just stop making everything pony. Many, many people are tired of bronies making everything into pony form. It's just giving you guys a bad reputation. If you redo the entire LOTR series, you will only garner more hate for your fanbase.

You kidding me bunnies and pancakes was a meme long before lolcats!

Yo dawg I heard you liked things with pancakes on their heads so I put a bunny with a pancakes on its head on a guys head with pancakes.

Oh my god! They plan to rewrite Lord of the Rings as a fan project! If that happens then…then….

Then fuck all will happen. They'll have spent a couple of weeks replacing the words Frodo with Twilight, and noone will be angered. Seriously. No one. Russian Fedora, NO-ONE WILL CARE.

It's not like this thing'll be posted all over the place. It's not like they'll delete the original Lord of the Rings. Literally no one will give a fuck except the 3-4 people in this thread who for some reason do.

NOBODY CARES. And neither should you.

DPF, do you know how many LOTR fans will rage over this happening to the LOTR books? There are so many fans of it on the internet, it's bound to be raged over.

I do not stand for the ponyfication of everything, and will try to stop it. This is just another bit of existence turned pony, and if we don't stop it, everything will be pony at this pace.

VIVA LA RESISTANCE!

Geez, you people. "OH GOD THEY ARE MAKING A FAN-REMAKE OF A POPULAR SERIES HOLY SHIT THIS IS SO EVIL AND UNHEARD OF."

Exactly. It's not like they're ponifying the bloody holy bible. It's just a few people who like the show, making a pony version of a well known and loved book series. Haters, get over yourselves. There's been far worse things writen that involve LOTR than this will be.

But you're supposed to be for the ponies. And ponies don't troll, they're supposed to love and tolerate the shit out of everyone, but by trolling people they aren't doing that, which means it is not the true pony way, which means that you aren't a brony, and thus you are not a part of the herd. You shall soon be destroyed.

Derailing thread is derailing.
If you publish this movie, no. If not, I'm all cool. I never really bothered to watch Lord of the Rings because of the long, boring intro, but if you ponify it, I might take interest in it.
