I haven't seen any of the Batman reboot movies. *ducks bricks* I haven't seen the final film of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. *ducks bricks* Actually there's a lot I need to see. Like the Jaws films (or at least the first one), a good number of older films such as Citizen Kane, Casablanca, Gone With the Wind, etc. My Westerns are also pitifully low and I'm not even entirely sure where to start with that genre. Probably The Man With No Name trilogy... Mafia films as well. Haven't seen Scarface or the Godfather Trilogy. Though to be honest, I didn't even see Star Wars until I was about 16. I didn't really watch a lot of movies when I was a kid. So yeah, a lot of catching up to do on my film knowledge.

I'm really hoping for a song already for season two. It's understandable why Eps. 3 didn't have one and Eps. 4 looks to be shaping up to be a big important episode. So I'm hoping for a nice musical number that will be remixed over and over by the fandom. Especially if Luna sings in it. I usually find that there's a low quality version up an hour after the episode. If you wait another hour or two a nice HD version will be up by noon.

I've heard this theory before. I seem to recall it ending in a rather macabre way as well...

Spike's a little kid with a crush on the pony who acts the most feminine out of everyone he spends time with. It's really not all that surprising. You'll see a lot of little crushes that really mean nothing in kids shows everywhere; it's a fairly common trope.

The costumes are really cool. Rainbow Dash as a Shadowbolt is a really nice nod to see. I'm still wanting to see the Rarity and Fluttershy costumes... but if they're not in the episode I suppose it's up to the fans to create the costumes! *hinthint*

Yeah, Amy and Rory have been the most interesting companions since Rose first appeared. Captain Jack is alright but I think he works best in one-shot appearances. Too much of him and he could quickly become obnoxious and annoying. I'm looking at you River Song. Though I heard Amy and Rory were returning for the next series, they just wouldn't be there full time. I think I recall Karen Gillian at least confirming at SDCC she would be back for some of the series. And we can't have Amy without Rory. I imagine they'll appear for some episodes before toddling off to a boring Earth life like the rest of us live. It's probably best for some new companions to appear anyway; if the companion stays on too long then she could become stale and boring. I'm looking at you Rose Tyler.

Silly Twilight, Trixie doesn't have a beard.

I'm assuming you mean the past two series with the 11th Doctor (series 5 and 6). I actually enjoy Matt Smith as the 11th Doctor, he's very fun without being as serious as David Tennant's Doctor. The problem is the new head writer, Steven Moffat. He keeps overusing silly nonsensical 'timey-wimey' resolutions to every plot; he plays loose with the continuity and he writes the Doctor as someone who doesn't take anything seriously. Fun is good as long as it's balanced with some serious moments. He did good on one off episodes from before (Blink was fantastic) but it seems when he's in charge of the whole operation Moffat gets a little crazy. Also too much River Song. I'm just disappointed that after the Christmas Special we're not getting any more Dr. Who until next fall.

Odd. I just rewatched the episode yesterday and was actually more emotionally involved with the characters than the first time watching it. Maybe I couldn't empathize with Twilight while she was crazy grinning all over the place but afterward with her and Princess Celestia? My eyes were watering up man. All of her friends rushing to help her made me feel all gooey inside. So yeah, no cringing from me. Just laughs and manly d'aaaws.

I like to think Big Mac's now the representative of all the bronies who collect the show's toys, though I doubt the show's writers intended that. Considering these scripts were probably hammered out... what? A year ago? I don't think there's any intended symbolism. Though it would be freakin' hilarious if Big Mac pops up with Mr. Smartypants later in the season.

I'll be honest, I really didn't like the CMC when I first saw their episodes. I pretty much yawned my way through saying, "Get back to the Mane 6!" After subsequent rewatchings they grew on me though. They're far more tolerable than a lot of other 'young siblings' characters from other cartoons. Plus their 80s rock opera thing was brilliant fun. So yeah, I'm looking forward to this episode. Can't wait to see what sort of cutie marks Apple Bloom might possibly get.

Pinkie Pie you're not a unicorn; you're not supposed to teleport.

Good good, sounding very good. Glad to hear some more from this album!

Since I've got my new figures I've been taking pictures of them. So far all the ones I've got involve my other toys to some degree, so I hope you guys don't mind. All pictures taken with my cell phone camera (pretty much my only camera). ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ I am planning more photos using just the ponies. I've got an idea for a re-enactment of a certain scene from the show (Hint: Check the season) that I should be taking in the next few days. Any sort of comments or even critiques are welcome.

Alright, so I disappeared for a couple weeks and I wanted to apologize. I had some family troubles that needed to be dealt with then I didn't really feel like getting back on. But after watching the newest pony episode I realized just how much I missed my fellow bronies and I scurried back in here. I probably won't post as often as I did and I'm afraid I won't be RPing at all (again, reeeally sorry for anyone's RP I joined) as I'm trying to focus on some things in my life. I do have some really cool news though. Remember my earlier blog post about how I couldn't get the Canterlot toys? Target had them on clearance so I went and scooped them up. Paid for them with my own money. They're really sweet figs too. They have a great weight and a nice size. The colors are a bit wonky, particularly on Twilight who seems too purple or something. And of course pink Celestia. If I knew anything about modding figures I'd fix her paint job. Applejack's probably my favorite figure and yes, I keep Sonic on her. I'm going to try to find her a hat. Somehow. Anywho, I apologize again to everyone here for not showing up and stuffs. I'll be lurking in the chatroom more often though and posting in the main threads to make up for it. Until next time fellow bronies.

Hmm, macabre isn't usually what I associate with childrens' shows. This will be interesting to see.

Yep, Darth Luna's episode is basically confirmed. Everyone's pretty excited about it, can't wait to see how they write Luna's character.

You know, it's pretty much impossible to hide from spoilers any more. EqD just posts them right out in the open and fans everywhere talk about them. Granted, I wasn't really in the fandom last year or anything (I only first saw MLP at the end of May) so maybe it's always been like this. *shrugs*

Isn't this just a fan animation of a banner Hub released showing off Hub's future billboard? I hardly think there's any 'secret references' in it.

The animation wasn't bad and I appreciated how much they tried to be professional with the models. There was some noticeable jarring moments, but I can't fault them too much. It's not like they're getting paid. But my alicorn that voice acting. I couldn't finish the short it was so bad. Celestia just drones in the most grating voice possible and Luna... well Luna isn't too bad actually. It's just Celestia. I think it's Trollestia just messing with us myself. @_@

Ack, I can't get the second pack of pony icons to work. My computer keeps rejecting them as icons even though they're pretty clearly .ico files. Is there some extra step I'm missing or something?

Awesome! I can use these mixed with the others. MOAR PONIES MOOOOAR!

Still just a rumor, but it does increase the legitimacy of the above images. I'm quite pleased with this rumor.

Alright, they got them for Windows now. Time to ponify my desktop. Thanks for the link Ancre!
