John De Lancie You Did It Again
I just watched the brony documentary last night and I thought I would post a little review on it. The animated segments with John De Lancie explaining things was a very nice touch and in those and his live action appearances were entertaining and informative. The joke about clopping was funny but I am not sure if it is a good idea to mention rule 34 in a movie that is supposed to set the record straight about us, I am not saying I have a problem with cloppers but the misperception that all bronies are cloppers is fairly significant and someone who might not know what it is might look it up out of curiousity and get quite the eye full.
Hearing from some of the writers, voice actors and of course Lauren Faust herself was also pretty awesome if I worked on something that well loved I would be pretty flattered.
I feel like the community was represented fairly well, it had a lot of different bronies from the teenage boy who wanted to go to Bronycon but didn't want to tell his parents the whole story to the guy who made pony themed youtube video parodies of the famous Dos Equiss commercials about him being the "worlds manliest brony". And it emphasized the creative spark that it has inspired in quite a few people what especially spoke to me was this one guy who says it inspired him to start drawing again for the first time since his father died. And of course there is the charity work, none of that could be accomplished by the pasty faced basement dwellers that exist in the minds of haters everywhere.
Overall it was a great movie and a decent way to introduce the fandom to those who know little to nothing about it or just give those of us who are already in the fandom a little inspiration.
