    (I am reposting the review I typed down on Facebook. Enjoy)
     
    [TL;DR at the very bottom of this post. You're welcome.]
      First off, some of you may be asking "Why would a grown man like you watch a colourful kid's movie?" If my cover photo doesn't already give it away, I'm simply a Brony and I simply wanted to watch it for my absolute love for the TV show this film came from.   Next, let's get to the nitty-gritty:   Visuals - Very much worth the watch. This is by far the best modern 2D Animated Feature that has ever hit the big screen in years (I'm looking at you Disney and Dreamworks). Every scene was very pleasant to look at because of how marvellously-detailed the animation was thanks to the ToonBoom Animation software the animators used to make this film such a wondrous visual treat. Kudos to the animators, their hard-work was very rewarding.   Sound - Even though the film has a Dolby Atmos mix, I sadly was not able to experience that in the theatre I went to simply because they do not have that setup. Other than that, the sound was very well designed, especially the catchy and adventurous soundtrack it has (thanks to Daniel Ingram for his outstanding musical abilities).   Characters - We have the usual Mane 6 (plus Spike the Dragon and others of course) from the Friendship is Magic TV series as part of the main cast. Though the film definitely was more attractive with the extra supporting guest cast enhancing the movie even more so. And the roles those characters had, definitely fulfilled them really well (except for some, though I will not mention them due to the purpose of this review being spoiler-free. #sorrynotsorry).   Plot - Now this is where it gets a little iffy. With the context of knowing that this is an official My Little Pony movie to ever hit theatres after the animated film of the same name back in the 1980's (and with the intended audience of not only the Brony fanbase but primarily the families with their kids), the plot was understandably mediocre and somewhat easy to predict. Don't get me wrong, however. The film is still enjoyable for all ages (no matter what the "neigh"-sayers will say), thanks to the appropriately-timed and clever funny moments that made us in the audience get a good laugh out of it.   Moral/Lesson - I will not spoil exactly what it is, but I can tell you at a personal level, it was very relatable and I'm sure it will be relatable to everyone else, even though the mediocre plot as mentioned earlier, predictably laid it out for simplicity's sake.   Final Verdict - with all of these factors in mind, I can say without a doubt, that this wonderful, modern 2D Animated Feature Film gets an 8/10. I know I might have used this score a lot in the past, but I am serious when I say that this film definitely deserved this score.   TL;DR: With the factors of the Visuals, Sound, Characters, Plot and the Moral/Lesson coming together, this spectacle of a modern 2D Animated Feature Film to come on the big screen after years of absence was certainly worth the watch, even for just the stunning 2D visuals and soundtrack alone.   Thank you for reading, and I hope you guys enjoy(ed) the film too.   #MLP #MLPTheMovie #MLPMovie

    No spoilers for Parental Glidance here, but this will give you guys an example of how much of an impact it made on me after watching it.

    Enjoy.

    Note: I'm not kidding when I say that the show MLP:FIM's S7 E7 "Parental Glidance" was responsible for me to make the decision to do this in the first place. It's amazing how much impact the show has in our lives. I cannot be more grateful.

    Behold, my very own organ cover of the Champion Theme in the Pokémon RSE and Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire games.
    I imagined this would sound epic on an organ so I finally completed it and here it is.
    Enjoy!

    DISCLAIMER: These do not show the final look of the film. It is still WIP (work-in-progress) as of the time this photo album was uploaded. These photos here are just a sneak peek to what will be in the upcoming sequel to Chase Scene (MLP IRL) made back in 2015. Stay tuned for more information coming soon.

    6 - He then makes haste to find out what's going on. Then to his surprise, ...


     
     
     
     
     



     
     
     
     
     

    7 - ... he sees Twilight, Rarity and Pinkie Pie standing there.

    Just want to wish everyone a happy World Autism Day and to remind everyone about this month of April signifying Autism Awareness [can also be Acceptance and Advocacy as well] Month.
     
    To commemorate this day and month, I would like to share with you this documentary short film I made about Autism Advocacy, which has a very encouraging and inspiring message in it.
     
    I would really like it if you could spare at least 42 minutes of your time to watch this documentary short of mine. Trust me, it's worth every second.
     
    I hope you enjoy it.

    I repeat, get out there and vote!
     
    If you are undecided, vote NDP! The Liberals are still guilty of their tactics they used ever since Jean Chretien. The Conservatives have been sneaky to even consider the TPP (Trans-Pacific Partnership), which is bad for everything to do with the internet, Film/TV and even video games!
     


     
    Let's vote NDP together to Stop Harper!

    If you like Nintendo games and would like to see my reaction on what Nintendo has in store this year, then tune in to http://www.twitch.tv/thecoolman3060 by the time of the event.
     
    I hope to see you there.

    It's now official! My Gaming Channel on YouTube (Jonny Games 007) is now partnered with Fullscreen Inc. (The Fullscreen Network)! This day couldn't get any better!
     
    Now I have my other two YouTube channels that I am yet to have partnered with them in the near future (God willing).
     
    I'm so nervousited right now!

    It's been a long time since I have ever had surgery done to any part of my body.
     
    Tomorrow (May 27, 2015), I will have all 3 of my Wisdom Teeth removed.
     
    I'm wondering if any of you had your wisdom teeth removed yet. And if so, I would like you guys to vote on the poll I have set up asking the question, "Which Anesthesia method should I go with?
     
    Keep in mind, I'd rather be asleep when the surgery starts.

    (The video link is at the bottom of this blog post)
     
    Whew! This one was a doozy! I was practically working non-stop to make this video a reality. No one else has ever even made this specific kind of video before, so I decided to make this.
     
    The research was the trickiest part. Even though I do like to research topics that peak my interest, I sometimes can get a little distracted by what I am researching about that I need for whatever project I am working on. Especially if it is time-sensitive. With some prompting and reminders, I may work a bit faster than I can without a friendly reminder.
     
    The rest of the process was not too difficult. The editing however was pretty stressful because of how much time I had to squeeze in within the time limit I have proposed.
     
    Alas I finally completed it within a deadline that I have set for myself.
     
    The key inspiration for making this video is thanks to ProJared with his One Minute Review videos {link the playlist with “One Minute Review videos”}. Without him uploading them, this video would not have been possible for me.
     
    The main message that I hoped to get out with the video was that no one is ever too old to watch cartoons. It’s hard for most people to believe it, but the fact is that you are indeed never too old to watch some good cartoons and feel young again. There are also side messages that I mention in the video that you will have to watch it for yourself in order to find them out (they should be obvious to you).

    Since it's the long weekend for me, I've decided to borrow a drawing tablet from my college's Media Equipment Loans Office. So far, I'm amazed by how this drawing tablet works. This may be an old drawing tablet, but it still amazes me how well they perform. The model name of this tablet (if you want to know) is the Wacom Intuos 3 Graphics Tablet (6 x 8).
