S06:E16 - The Times They Are A Changeling
DragonFlyer replied to Ashen Pathfinder's topic in Season 6 Discussion
D'aw, Thorax was so cute! Although I was hoping his voice would've been more...insect-like, but whatever. I really enjoyed this episode! Spike was excellent; it's great to see him treated with more respect as a character. He's been one of my favorites for a long time (even back in Gen 1, haha) Nice to have more lore on the Changelings too and I have a feeling the finale will involve them in some way. I love a good redemption but I'm still not sure how I would feel about Chrysalis being reformed if they go that route...we need some villains to stay villains. The song was really nice on it's own but felt a little forced given the tension in the scene. Man these ponies change their minds easily. XD Just like how quick they were to forgive Discord after the Tirek incident I find it hard to believe that EVERY pony is magically okay with accepting a Changeling just because of Spike's heartfelt song. Especially Shining Armor and Cadence. That just felt kinda rushed...but oh well, friendship is magic! Seriously though, any minor nitpicks I have with this episode don't take away from how awesome it was. A favorite for sure! -
S06:E13 - Stranger Than Fan Fiction
DragonFlyer replied to Ashen Pathfinder's topic in Season 6 Discussion
I really, really, REALLY enjoyed this episode. Seriously made me laugh out loud multiple times! I saw myself and friends reflected in the obsessive fan-dork rambling. Ahh, the late nights spent chatting about fictional characters and various fan theories. Good times. I'm also guilty of ranting like an angry nerd when I don't agree with changes made to some of my beloved fandoms. But while friendly debates are fine I've always found it beyond stupid when people *seriously* get into hate filled arguments over stuff like this. It's okay to not agree on everything and we're all entitled to our opinions, it certainly shouldn't break up friendships. Which was the moral of the story here and I think it was great! It's a good message for not only this fandom but all fandoms. What can I say? I loved this one! Best of the season so far and for the first time a Daring Do ep has made it to my favorites list. I really don't have any negative points to add. RD was excellent, Quibble was great (hope to see him again one day) and the convention brought back memories of Otakon for me. -
Interesting theory! I doubt it's true but I'd support it... it'd certainly make for some interesting stories. The flutterponies were my favorite when I was little... probably another reason why I love Fluttershy so much. I know there's pretty much no chance of this but I'd love to see the flutterpony (summerwing) "High Flyer" make an appearance in FiM... maybe even as Fluttershy's brother. "She" was always a "he" in my imagination and his dragonfly cutie mark would fit with Fluttershy's butterflies. Haha. Won't happen but it'd make my nostalgic heart happy.

Let's speculate about season 6... NOW!
DragonFlyer replied to cybershocker455's topic in MLP:FiM Canon Discussion
I hope Starlight will just be a secondary character, I don't dislike her (even if her backstory was a bit weak imo) but I'm not sure how I feel about a permanent addition to the Mane 7 (counting Spike) I'd also love to see more family related episodes and hope we get to learn something about RD's family in addition to Fluttershy's brother. Speaking of families, how about an episode about Celestia and Luna growing up? I doubt it'd happen but I'd love it. I really want more Zecora in S6. She was awesome in the finale! I've always found her to be an intriguing but severely underused character. I'd love to see more Zebras too, there's a lot of storytelling potential there! I hope we get another big bad world-threatening villain that can't be redeemed. Don't get me wrong, I love a good story about redemption but not every bad guy/girl is gonna change their ways because "friendship is magic!" Maybe I'm evil but I kinda wanna see Tirek come back... That or an episode about his past with Scorpan. Oh yes, Scorpan! I'd love to see him make an actual appearance. He was my favorite in Rescue at Midnight Castle, too. More Discord, of course. He'll always be my favorite FiM character and I've loved most every episode he's been in. Maybe someday we'll get to know more of his history. Chrysalis and her changelings should come back at some point...the finale reminded me of how truly epic they are. Did we watch the same episode? They're absolutely still friends and I haven't seen any signs of them drifting apart. They even got matching butt symbols to establish that they're a team and their shared talent is helping other ponies with their cutiemarks. Although I do hope their individual talents are explored a bit more in S6.- 69 replies

movies/tv Why can't my generation and the new generation watch black and white movies?
DragonFlyer replied to TheMarkz0ne's topic in Media Discussion
I won't judge any movie (or show) on when it was made or if it's in color or not. Actually one of my favorite TV series of all time, "Dark Shadows", is much older than I am and was in black and white for the first year it aired (1966-67) The story and characters were so compelling that you could overlook the cheap props and limited special effects. I've also watched and enjoyed very old movies such as the 1935 version of "Le Miserables" and "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn" from 1945. The fact that they were filmed in black and white and from a very different time period never took away from the story for me. I thought they were very well done. That said obviously not all older movies are good -- and the same can be said for new movies. Sometimes the action-packed, fast-paced tone of our modern day movies gets on my nerves and I long for an old fashioned storytelling style. In short, I can appreciate all types of movies and I think it would be silly to judge all black and white movies based on a few bad ones. PS: I thought it was interesting that Tim Burton's new movie take on the old "Frakenweenie" short was done entirely in black and white. I loved the feel of it! -
spoiler What About Discord Preview.
DragonFlyer replied to CastletonSnob's topic in MLP:FiM Canon Discussion
I'm both curious and excited for this episode! I can't help but wonder if RD is under some kind of mind control, especially since she's always been the most hostile and distrusting towards Discord....but I hope that's not the case. It'd be great to see the rest of the Mane 6 finally bond with him. But I do wonder what would cause it to happen in just three days time. Whatever the case I love anything with Discord! Unfortunately I'm gonna be at an event Saturday morning so I'll hafta catch it online later (which will be more enjoyable than livestream anyway, mine always glitches and lags - not to mention commercials) -
am I the only person that just.. watches.. the show?
DragonFlyer replied to Chronamut's topic in Sugarcube Corner
I'd have more merch if I wasn't broke all the time, haha. I have a small collection of my favorites but for the most part I just enjoy the show and draw the occasional fan art...and read fan fictions and watch PMVs and join in (some) conversations and.... yeah. I'm probably way past the "normal" stage, whatever that is. Oh well. Everyone should be able to enjoy the fandom however they wish, it doesn't make you "less" of a brony if you don't wear "20% cooler" t-shirts.- 70 replies

Why does Fluttershy still tolerate Angel?
DragonFlyer replied to ggg-2's topic in MLP:FiM Canon Discussion
Actually, Fluttershy's relationship with Angel reminds me of the way my mom treats her little dog Haylee. She's a total "spoiled princess"! She sings to her, tells her she's royalty and gives in to her demands - and she is very demanding. I know, I know - she's a dog who trained a human instead of the other way around. But she's also 17 years young and a lovebug, my mom never gets irritated with her, even when she's barking non-stop for a treat, because she loves her so much. She's family. I get that same impression with Angel. In fact I think he and Haylee would get along great. XD -
What are you dressing as for Halloween?
DragonFlyer replied to Star Blossom's topic in General Discussion
I'd LOVE to go as Discord. But a costume like that would be far too elaborate (and expensive) for me to make. Soo, I'm going as a pirate. -

movies/tv Horrifying movie scenes as a child?
DragonFlyer replied to TigerGeekGuy's topic in Media Discussion
Watership Down, the scene where Bigwig gets caught in the snare...and EVERYTHING about General Woundwort gave me nightmares as a small child. Whoever said bunnies can't be terrifying never saw Woundwort. Take notes, Angel. XD But yes, despite being an animated movie (a very good one), WD really isn't "kid friendly". XD -

I think my pets furkids are the greatest! I have four awesome dogs and they make my life worth living. Foxy (chihuahua), Cricket (min pin/terrier), Nemo (beagle) and Wahya (husky/collie) are my best friends, hiking companions and totally own my heart.

All the time...apparently I still look like I'm 16 (despite my gray hairs) because people are always so shocked when they find out my real age. They always tell me they figured I was still in high school. But hey, I'm not complaining. Forever young man! :scoots:

movies/tv Opinions on Disney Channel's Live action shows?
DragonFlyer replied to TheMisterManGuy's topic in Media Discussion
Ehh I've never really liked any of Disney's live action shows, even the "old" ones which were past my generation anyway (but I will say some of them were more enjoyable than the current line-up) I grew up on Disney Afternoon, the channel's big cartoon block in the 90s - now that was quality TV! Even back then there were very few live action shows I watched, the main one that comes to mind that I really LOVED was "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" but that was Nickelodeon, not Disney...and don't even get me started on Nick's current line of live action tween shows, I can't even. -
I just saw Smile HD, okay so, wtf?
DragonFlyer replied to ZapFirePrincess's topic in Sugarcube Corner
Yeeeaah, I've seen SMILE HD.... Don't get me wrong, I see why some people would find it funny but it's not my cup of tea. Way too graphic. I DID however find APPLE.MOV to be pretty hilarious. It reminded me of "Ren & Stimpy" and I grew up on that kind of warped humor. But it wasn't full of blood and gore. Just a matter of personal taste I guess. I do think it's sad if unsuspecting children are clicking on these expecting to see cute innocent ponies. BTW I'm not sure which character has the worst split personality in these videos, Pinkie Pie or Fluttershy...yes, I've seen SHED.MOV too...never again...the nightmares...the nightmares...- 56 replies

Oooh, hard choice! But my TOP favorite is probably "The Legend of White Fang". That show was a huge part of my childhood and I always loved the way they did the opening. But a very close second would be the intro to "TaleSpin"! Some other favorites include the intros to "Animaniacs", "Tiny Toon Adventures" and "Chip N' Dale Rescue Rangers".... I kind of like cartoons.

apart from FIM what else do you obsess about?
DragonFlyer replied to Rarity Paige Belle's topic in General Discussion
Just a few of my addictions: The Lion King (especially Scar, he's my favorite character of all time) Dark Shadows (namely the character Willie Loomis, from the original 1966 TV series) Meowth (and Team Rocket, not as big of an obsession now but it was huge at one point) Drawing (I can get very obsessed with art) Hiking (an addiction, but a healthy one) Dogs and Wolves (I have a pretty big collection of stuff related to my favorite animals) -
