Equestria Daily : Nightly Roundup #1255

Thu, 15 Oct 2015 05:06:07 +0000

Got my copy of "The Art of Equestria" in the mail today. IT'S PURRRRRRTY (frikkin' Amazon loose-packaging scuffed it slightly, tho)

Faust's plans also included using the Elements of Harmony to solve every problem that couldn't be kicked or argued back into place. BRILLIANT!!!2! Lauren Faust was the beginning of, and an essential part of, a wonderful team effort. But the sun does not shine out of her ass and she'd be first to tell you that. These self-mutilation-grade fan dramatics are the most pointless nonsense.

Equestria Daily : Episode 16 Synopsis Revealed on Zap2it - Made in Manehattan

"But the lesson sounds too much like from 'Stare Master'. I hope it won't be a imitation of it. The synopsis doesn't sound interesting to me." Perhaps you're thinking of a different episode, since the only thing these two seem to have in common so far is "biting off more than she/they can chew" which applies to episodes ranging from "Applebuck Season" to "Party Pooped." Either way, a single-sentence synopsis hardly gives anypony enough information to start concern-trolling over.

Oh, hey, the Cutie Map's back in action! It's been used a LOT less than I anticipated; they probably didn't want to blow all their world-building options too quickly. Downside: Oh, hey...Manehattan...again. Is there any more exciting place to visit in a fantasy world full of unicorns and pegasi than "New York City only less filthy"?

Applejack secretly becomes a guerrilla artist named "Flanksy" *snerk* BUHHHH HUH HUH HUH HUH HUH HEE HOO a closing shot of a changeling army flying towards Ponyville I'm glad they had the drone at the wedding in Slice of Life instead of that (although I couldn't tell you which of the Changeling-drone-stuck-in-Equestria fan works it's a tip of the hat to). Everyone expected that show to take off, but it was cancelled after one season Well, that's more because of the infamous sociopathic meddling at CN than anything else. ...Right, Young Justice fans? You know alllll about that crap.

Equestria Daily : Bronies React: MLP-FiM Episode 100 - Slice of Life

Fri, 17 Jul 2015 06:58:48 +0000

I like reactions. I guess I've watched about ten different reactions to "Slice of Life" and most of them are wonderful. Last night it was Subzero's reaction; he quickly gave up and for the most part just watched the episode in stunned semi-silence. It was great. "Bronies React" isn't reaction. It's acting, but not the sort that wins anything. I've come to loathe the group reactions because the more insecure participants have to troll for attention constantly, like so: "Guys! I've guessed how the plot will play out! I've matched wits with a show geared for young audiences and WON! Stop watching at pay attention to ME! DRAGONBALL REFERENCE NINE THOUSAAAAAANNNNNNDDDDD!!!1!!BWARRRRRRR!!!!" "Does it bug you when I put my feet next to your head, hurr hurr hurr? Does it bug you when I fake an asthma attack during the songs, hurr hurr hurr? ...Please notice me?" "Ach, vot did Twilight say vile I vas askink you vot Rainbow Dash said? Ach! What did Rarity say vile I vas askink you vot Twilight said? ...Anyvays! I vas telling you about dot time I vas missink the entire episode because I vouldn't shtop talkink and pay attention... Ach! Vot did Fluttershy just say?" ...and this is no different. I clicked on this because I mistook it for Reactions Are Magic, which at least edits--or at least used to edit--all the wild-eyed HEYYY GUYS WOOOO WHOOP WHOOP YEEEEE I FOUND A TWO-FRAME ANIMATION ERROR BRUHHHH crap down to a minimum, or to the funnier acting-up. I swear some of these clowns should just follow their bliss and shriek and grimace and fart into the camera for twelve solid minutes then post it online.

That'd be nice. I've had to give up on a couple of group reaction channels--that is to say, most of them--because they've become less about "reacting" and more about "acting" to the point the episode might as well not even be there. I don't know if there should be an article about that, or just let the free market take care of it. ReactionsAreMagic is a good alternative because of the editing mix (as opposed to people shouting over each other in the same room) but when it comes to straight-through single-person reactions, I really enjoy CoHNaturesFury and Kyra Draws. Also, Amy DOA provides a few giggleworthy shocks for someone with such a quiet, reserved voice. Among the guys, I like LuffyisCool, Shanmul1995, JohnnyFireFlame, LaDix, and ClassyCo17's family reactions and oh my celestia i think i might be watching too much pony how is that even possible

Equestria Daily : Righteous~ Make New Friends But Keep Discord Teaser Clip #2

Fri, 15 May 2015 18:56:35 +0000

Welp, I was wrong about Discord at the finale of S4; I had theorized that he hadn't yet regained his magic, but apparently he's just less obnoxious about public displays of it now. (He himself is still as obnoxious as ever, thank Celestia.)

Equestria Daily : Animation: Scientifically Accurate My Little Pony

Tue, 21 Apr 2015 05:01:15 +0000

The Scientifically Accurate series started off with a bang (I loved Scientifically Accurate Spider-Man) but quickly established that it was a one-trick pony (cough) and this brief rapid-fire barrage of poop jokes and violence just shows how worn-out their shtick has grown if they can't scrape together enough material to make a full-length parody of MLP. ...Golly, horses dump wherever and can't fly in real life, and the Chinese eat animals we don't? WHO KNEW?!?? It's too pathetic to be either funny or offensive. EqD probably covered Bronies* (the parody using the Robot Chicken song about what you should do with a horse right now) somewhere and I missed it, but that's more deserving of a standalone article than this sad little piffle. Bronies is incredibly funny AND offensive, and more than a little controversial for a fandom that has had to cope with that particular association from the start. So much so that the artist has been engaged in conversation (or if you prefer, damage control) since it was posted. Ratchetness did an interesting analysis of the controversy on his YouTube channel*. *No links because while I laughed, I can afford to because I don't have to put up with kids following me around accusing me of being a horsef***er. Easily found.

Equestria Daily : Season 5 Episode 8 Revealed - The Lost Treasure of Griffonstone

Sat, 18 Apr 2015 05:12:24 +0000

"(What if it ask for Spike to accompany Twilight because the next mission is dragon related, how will it show?)" A: A bucket. Here's the elephant in the room regarding the Tree of Harmony: It doesn't just have Twilight's cutie mark, it is in the form of Twilight's cutie mark, and Celestia and Luna's marks are in a subordinate position to her mark. I don't know about anypony else, but if I were Twi I'd be asking questions nonstop and be up all night freaking out. ...No, WORSE than usual. That's some scary predestination stuff right there.

Equestria Daily : Daniel Ingram to Announce Number of Season 5 Songs and New MLP Album!

New album! Yes! I figure it's still too much to hope for a score soundtrack (if you haven't heard MelodicPony's "The History of Ponyville" WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR GO GO GO), but I'll be all over a new song album like Pinkie on pie.
