  1. We never actually explored it, it was just an excuse to explain why the mane6 were not in the episode. Also episode 100 didn't really have a plot, this would actually have a plot.
  2. It is nice you forgot the whole story arc in Season 4 about the Sisters Old Castle and the journal that lead to nothing because Hasbro probably wanted the Golden Oaks Library gone.
  3. I really want to see a premiere that, while keeping the world, characters, and continuity intact, runs with a completely absurd premise and doesn't try to force a serious situation where it doesn't belong or lower the stakes to where it seems like a more drawn out slice of life episode. Sure Equestria won't be in any serious danger, but Equestria will still be in danger of getting a horrible night's sleep....oh and this could he a job for Princess Luna...since she is involved with dreams.
  4. I don't know how to quote posts on mobile, but Unr3alGamer look here. https://derpibooru.org/935129 I hope this helps you.
  5. There was a poster on 4chan who leaked out something that actually was partially confirmed at SDCC and you all ignored it in favor of the post that had nothing backing it up.
  6. What do you think about the hypothesis that FSG what supposed to come first?
  7. I am going to ask one more question to make things easier, but if this was always planned this way, then why couldn't they have split Season 5 up into two seasons? In all seriousness if they made two 13 episode seasons they could have shilled more toys and then wowed fans when Season 6 came back during the same year.
  8. He is very famous for creating and starring in a show called It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, but he has begun doing children's films like The Lego Movie. I think another possible reason for this hiatus is that the season started too late in Hasbro's view or Discovery Family's view, and that even when the season started DHX was still too far behind. Imagine if the original plan was to have Friendship Games air first then the season. The holiday episodes would have lined up, the season would have been finished, we would have not had all this confusion about when the season started, and we wouldn't have needed breaks.
  9. Why are we believing leaks on 4chan? Have you seen the amount of stupid shit they parade around? Right now they are claiming that Charlie Day being on the show is going to happen solely because there was a post a year ago saying he was going to voice Fluttershy's brother.
  10. An insider made a post on /mlp/ several months ago saying that Fluttershy would have a brother in an upcoming episode and made obvious hints that Charlie Day would (or maybe the staff at Hasbro/DHX wanted him to) voice Fluttershy's brother. Still likely fake, but there is slightly more evidence pointing towards this and naturally /mlp/ and /pone/ are going bonkers treating it as if it was confirmed.
  11. @Nioniosbbbb Three pages ago we were discussing the email he showed to his team saying that Hasbro asked him to take it down, go read that conversation before you act like we're making shit up
  12. You're forgetting Hasbro ASKED him to take it down. You are all forgetting Hasbro asked him to take it down, he was lying to the community and is probably STILL lying to his team.
  13. It's not about Hasbro wanting to cover up this C&D, it is likely about Zach not wanting to face the consequences of committing plagarism.
  14. Because he's trying to cover up something that could damage his career.
  15. Because True Tail is a passion project at this moment, with only the promise that the team will ever get paid if there is an investment, means that everything the show sort of teaches us about friendship is important for this project to have a chance. I'd wager in Flamingo's position, he's aware that he's on the verge of losing most of his team. Again, if I need to reveal my source I will, but apparently Flamingo is now telling his team that they might be picked up for a new show on The Hub in 2015. My source tells me that Flamingo didn't think this was important enough to tell the FIM fandom.
  16. If this is true that not only were DHX parts used, but that Hasbro took it down for those reasons, then I feel both morally and legally Hasbro is in the right position. I can say that my source on his current team has told me that the team's response was along the lines of, "No, everything was custom, it looks so close to DHX because we got a lot of references and put a lot of time into it." Yes, apparently the team believes you can build something EXACTLY like the show JUST by looking at decompiled flash games and high quality screencaps from the show.
  17. Holy Celestia, and I mean this with no sarcasm, I'm impressed. Your argument makes ALOT of sense. It may have VERY WELL been a polite e-mail from Hasbro, but the subject matter would have no doubt been very serious in his situation. This explains why he isn't sharing details, and why he is shutting everything down and making up a reason why. Every detail brings more and more shame upon him and threatens the success of True Tail. I don't want to share my source (if you push me I will), but supposedly the story Flamingo is sharing with his current team is that he no longer cares about the FIM fandom and that it is time to move away from it, though the way my source told me it may seem like Flamingo has no problems with ruining his relationship with this fandom.
  18. I'm not arguing traced, I'm arguing copying outright. Human error, unless you're AIMING for 100% accuracy in how it was built will show up in the wireframe. Flamingo didn't build this, but someone on his team did (someone who I hope is blacklisted from the industry for this dishonesty, it's actually public knowledge who is responsible for it). But the fact is, he was the lead producer and director, he shared a big part of the responsibility. In order to prevent this there are four unfortunate answers...: A. Don't base your student film entirely on copyrighted work B. Don't try to mimic the way something is created as the basis of your student film C. Don't recruit strangers on the internet for something serious like a student film D. Don't give people you're new to working with too much autonomy, observe your staff members regularly
  19. I did already you seemed to ignore this post. Again you forget this is an academic project, this is him getting caught for plagarism by the creator itself. This looks bad on him and his school. If you use an asset you didn't make that isn't public domain/royalty free, you need to credit the author. He never cited the DHX assets as a source. http://img.ctrlv.in/img/52f28e40b283a.png
  20. I'll make another argument, he never also gave credit to Hasbro for the assets, he would have to update the film to give Hasbro credit....if you haven't forgot this was an academic project...do you realize he can get in academic trouble for this?
  21. Nah, I'm pretty sure if you're committing unauthorized distribution of something that wasn't supposed to be public, that's breaking the law.
  22. He was allowed to trace over the DHX assets, I never said he couldn't, this is an argument as to whether he traced or copied. I'm arguing it was very unlikely he traced over the DHX assets, due to them matching up 100% in both the look AND the way it was built. And Hasbro absolutely should argue the method because that implies he was leaking out their assets with out their permission. You...need to use Illustrator or Flash to understand how this is nearly impossible to do unless you were willing to spend a ridiculous number of hours making sure that everything looked the same down to the pixel.
  23. That's what everyone wants to know, this is why many fans are angry. There is a difference between matching the show's style and matching how it was built. The reason we're able to have such strong evidence for this is the fact that leaked there are DHX assets for the background ponies in Wonderbolts in the first place...and parts in the stallion puppets match up with parts in the leaked Wonderbolts Academy puppets. Even if he did he would have to cite it as a source in the credits, as it was an academic project.
  24. If you read the thread it was apparently Hasbro that asked him to take it down.
  25. Not really, you ever heard of Occam's Razor? http://img.ctrlv.in/img/52f28e40b283a.png Evidence here
