    Moving tomorrow across town. Can't wait!

    That's a good point. I found her character more bland than unlikeable, to be perfectly honest, but there is a difference between Trixie, who ended her episode being chased out of town by something that was in town through no fault of her own, and Gilda leaving because she thought she was "too cool" to be around the mane six, Rainbow Dash included in that. Gilda brought her comeuppance onto herself to some degree (you can say Rainbow Dash was a bit over-the-top, but she had a basis to be), whereas Trixie could not be blamed in any realistic way for what happened to her. That's the big difference between the two, in my opinion.

    In the show, they will still be ponies. EG will not impact the show directly. Everyone involved higher up in the movie has said so. This movie is basically a one-off thing. It can't even really be called a spin-off. Think of it more as a "what-if" thing.

    Here's my thoughts on EG. I might see it at some point, but I won't pay to do so, because I am concerned about the info I have on it. That said, they've said repeatedly that it won't affect S4, so I'm still looking forward to that, or I would be if I had even gotten through S2 yet. In my opinion, any argument over how EG will affect S4 is a pointless argument, and getting confrontational with others is kind of missing almost every moral of FiM.

    Fair point. But to make my own point, there are already uninformed people consider FiM to be nothing more than a kid's show, despite all evidence to the contrary. I don't see how this will be any different. I'm not saying "don't care what people think". But if people you know are going to judge you based off a spin-off that you don't watch to a show you do, they were already judging you silently.
  6. thebobmaster
    I agree. I just read his post as saying that EQG would have a negative effect on FiM as if it were a fact, when it is far from such.
  7. thebobmaster
    Hasn't it already been stated, multiple times, that EQG is not canon? You almost seem to want this movie to suck, and want to see the fandom collapse, because you are ignoring the information we have in order to stick to your theory that this one movie will destroy the brony fandom, or at least severely damage it.

    Can't copy and paste (on a tablet), but my test came out as being Rainbow Dash with a bit of Applejack. I...don't agree. Depending on how comfortable around people, I'm either Fluttershy or Pinkie Pie.

    I disagree, to put it mildly. Hasbro is not run by total idiots. Who has more disposable income? Parents, or college students? Saying that Hasbro is intentionally alienating a huge target market is not exactly accurate. And "something it was never really supposed to be"? You mean, a show aimed at young girls?

    I love a lot of video game music, so narrowing it down to just three tracks is really hard. However, I'll do my best. The first one is from the original Sonic the Hedgehog, and the second is from Final Fantasy VII. The third is simply one of the most satisfying sounds in any video game, in my opinion.

    I am not very well known on this forum, I think. I joined a couple weeks ago, but I mostly lurk, posting in a topic here or there. If I were known for anything, it would be my reviews of MLP episodes...and I have no idea how many people even read those. So, 1/10 is being generous.

    I just finished reviewing (and rewatching) this episode. Overall, I found it rather "meh". The only thing that made it even slightly above average to me were Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon, who did what they had to do very well, and made for villains that were fun to root against. Other than that, the episode just screamed "generic" to me.
  13. thebobmaster
    Holy crap. Are you me? Seriously, I can't think of much to add to what you said, as almost every single one of your opinions lined up with mine. I will say one thing, though. While most of Sir Roger Moore's Bond movies were bad, I did enjoy The Spy Who Loved Me and For Your Eyes Only. Not so much for Sir Roger Moore, mind you. TSWLM, I enjoyed for Jaws and Major Hotness (her real name was something Russian I can't recall starting with A). As for For Your Eyes Only, I liked the story, and thought the writing was really strong for a Moore film. Then I found out the movie was originally written for a new Bond, as Sir Roger Moore thought about retiring. That actor? Some guy named Timothy Dalton, who declined as he felt too young to be Bond.

    I'm bi. I just want to make that clear, before anyone tries to say I'm against gays or whatever. However, in a show like this, having an episode would not work out as well. It's a kid's show. I remember when my state passed a proposition that banned gay marriages (don't worry, they are working on fixing that problem). One of the arguments was that if we allowed gay marriages, we would have to teach our kids about alternative marriages. Total horse apples, but if we were to try to put a pro-homosexuality moral in a kid's shows, we'd have those same politicians up in arms again, claiming it as proof that we are trying to force our kids to accept homosexuality. Not that that is a bad thing, mind you. I'm just worried about starting another Derpygate.

    I love Weird Al songs. Couldn't even say what my favorite is. However, top 5, in no order, would be "White and Nerdy", "Perform this Way", "Trigger Happy", "Hardware Store", and "Polka Face".

    Aenima is another great album by Tool. It's the only album I own of theirs, and it was totally worth the money. Granted, I got it from a garage sale, but still, great album. Any album that has a song titled "Hooker With a Penis" is worth at least a curiosity listen.

    I try to avoid nasty stuff, but the first thing that comes to mind is from a show called Bar Rescue, where a nightclub fixer-upper guy named Jon Taffer goes around fixing failing bars. One of the bars he went to was called "Headhunters". The place was so badly infested with cockroaches that he literally took a bottle of liquor, poured it out onto a washcloth, and found at least 15 cockroaches. Inside the bottle. That was freaking nasty. Other than that...well, I'm a horror movie fan, so I've seen some cringeworthy stuff on those, but for some reason, I usually don't get bothered by gore.

Mass Effect 3 4. Dragon Age: Origins 5. Batman: Arkham City 6. Injustice: Gods Among Us 7. Mass Effect 8. Batman: Arkham Asylum 9. Final Fantasy IX 10. Mass Effect 2

    Lance Vance from GTA: Vice City. I don't disagree that Roman is annoying, but that's it. Lance is not only annoying, but every single problem you run into throughout the storyline is either directly or indirectly caused by some action of Lance's.

    Funny thing is, the haters are basically what got me into the show. See, I knew of the show, but after over a year of hearing all this debate (to put it kindly), I decided to check out the show to see what all the fuss was about. Since I'm on here, you can guess how it turned out. That said, there is definitely fault on both sides. SOME bronies can be obnoxious about it, running around criticizing people for not liking or watching the show. SOME non-bronies can be obnoxious about not liking the show, calling everyone who does a clopper and a closet pedophile. But that's every fandom for you. I don't let it bother me. I don't go around wearing a Rainbow Dash T-shirt (mostly because I don't own one), but I'm not ashamed to be a brony. If anyone lets it bother them, I don't mind. I know I like it, that's all that matters to me.

    But radio stations change from place to place. Heck, from county to county. What radio stations I have in my city, you most likely don't have in your city. It's still a bit unfair to say that anyone who listens to radio needs to start thinking for themselves, because they clearly aren't doing that by choosing a radio station they like. Let me give you an example. Where I live, there are several pop stations, true. But there are also at least 4 classic rock stations, 2 that play country music regardless of era, and a whole lot of Mexican music stations. In, say, Alabama, there probably wouldn't be many Mexican stations, because there isn't an audience for them.

    I just got into Magic within the last year. I have my own deck, though. It's a custom-built Black/White deck. I call it the Michael Jackson deck. It's a pretty cool deck, but my sister and brother in law are the real Magic players. They have a binder literally filled with copies of their cards. No repeats, just single cards so they can look up what they have. If you want the actual cards, they have them in two boxes, each about 3 feet on each side in the shape of a square. They easily have over 2,000 Magic cards. And yes, they have their own decks, of pretty much any combo you could imagine. Off the top of my head, they have a full combo (all colors), Green/Black with scavenge, Green/Black with drudge, Blue/White, a Red deck with Krenko (god, I hate that goblin asshole), and a Blue/Red.

    Here's the thing. I'm all for some adult humor. Kids can handle a lot more than some people think. But suicide jokes? Really? What is wrong with executives? To be fair, Rugrats also had a suicide joke in it, but they did it a lot more low-key, and in terms a kid wouldn't get. The exact joke, by the way, was Stu showing the family home movies, and Didi's father picking up the phone and asking for Dr. Kevorkian. This, though? Yeah, that just seems a bit different. I don't know what it is exactly, but it just seems a lot more crude.

    First off, I don't hate pop music. There are some artists I can't stand, like One Direction or Cher Lloyd. However, I think that most of the people who say "music was better back in 19XX" just listens to what is still around. Let's face it, the mainstream stuff from the 70's that was crap wouldn't still be around almost 40 years later. As for claiming that music now is so much more homogenous than previous decades, that's not necessarily true. I did a review of the entire 1981 year-end top 100 songs. Over half of them were either a break-up song or a love song. I'm not saying today's pop songs don't fall into patterns, mind you. But pop songs from all over the course of Billboard charts fall into patterns. Also, if you really think hip-hop is nothing but people bragging about money/women/thugging/whatever, take a listen to "Thrift Shop". Actually, do that anyways. That song is freaking hilarious.

    I have to warn you, my review will not be positive for Mysterious Mare Do Well. I strongly disliked that episode.
