S02:E11 - Hearth's Warming Eve

[Slendermane 477]

I was expecting Discord to be the source of the blizzard. I guess Discord, the Alicorn sisters, and the elements of harmony either came after, or later joined the unified three tribes.

UNICORNIA PREVAILS!

 

HERE'S SOMEONE WHO KNOWS WHAT THEY'RE FUCKING TALKING ABOUT.

[Swoop 2,279]

Solid episode, Full of D'aww Fluttershy moments, chimneys, maps, gingerbread houses, baby Tom's, Derpy: all the good stuff.

 

I still can't get my head around Equestria almost being called Earth though.

 

Overall I really enjoyed this one, it was nice to learn a bit of Equestrian history, although I'd like to know when Celestia and Luna came into the picture.

Derpy wanted to be a star.

 

How dare they deny her of her rights!

AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS THE FUCKING DOCTOR WHO TOLD HER TO GET OFF STAGE, BUT THEN REALIZED IT WAS CARAMEL.

I enjoyed the play, but I would have preferred if the episode was a little more holiday themed. I thought it was still a cool and funny episode though (Chancellor Pudding ) Oh Pinkie Pie, you're awesome!

First off, that "Song" I'm pretty sure was a christmas carol not a national anthem.

 

2nd: PINKIE! PINKIE! PINKIE! I want to live at Earth...wait...Ok, I want to live at the Earth she's at.

 

3rd: On Equestria Daily, People said that when Pinkie Pie said Earth she meant it as dirt. While that is true. The joke is it sounds like she is talking about our planet. People completely miss the joke because they were trying to make logic out of it.

 

And Earth is better then Unicornia and pega-whatever. It has Pinkie in it.

 

(Review when I watch it again...even though I don't want to see Pinkie frozen again. )

All-around solid episode. I loved the roles of the mane 6 and Spike being narrator.

[falzar 9]

i missed it

 

fuck

[The_Shy_One 6]

Hopefully I'll be able to watch it online soon.

[Finesthour 7,289]

I did not really like this episode as much as I thought.

 

I wanted a Pinkie Song.

[HomuraBL 852]

Buck

 

There I changed it for you.

Anyway yah, its a must see. This is one of the better episode.

(not going to call it the best when i haven't seen it enough times.)

In case anypony's wondering, it's already on YouTube:

 

[Finesthour 7,289]

Meh, this was not one of my favorite episodes.

 

I admit it was cool, but not as good as others.

[Viscra Maelstrom 3,719]

I, FOR ONE, FUCKING LOVED THIS EPISODE. DESPITE IT ONLY BEING A PLAY THE ACTED IN, IT WAS A LOT MORE FUCKING TENSE THAN ANY OF THE 2 PARTERS, IMFO.

 

I DO AGREE, HOWEVER, THAT THE FUCKING LACK OF A PINKIE PIE SONG THROUGHOUT WHAT NOW IS ALMOST THE FIRST FUCKING HALF OF SEASON 2 IS DISSAPOINTING.

 

COME ON, STUDIO B!

[Street Comedy 327]

All around a solid episode, good plot, funny moments, and one of Pinkie Pie's best episodes. But how did they afford all the special effects for the play though?

[Colon Leftbracket 971]

Hmm... this episode has me updating my top 5 list.

5. Cutie Mark Crusaders

4. Party Of One

3. Sonic Rainboom

2. Hearth's Warming Eve

1. Cutie Mark Chronicles (So Many Fillies!)

 

I knew this episode was going to be the best of Season 2 (at least so far)

 

One strange Omission was Celestia and Luna. They were on the Flag, but from this they had nothing to do with the creation of Equestria! Hell the Princess's Mane Talents (Raising/Lowering the Moon/Sun, Day/Night) are done by regular Unicorns.

(More Celestia Propaganda! )

 

Pinkie Pie was brilliant in this episode! "Hold on to your Hooves, I am just about to be BRILLIANT!"

And the ending where Fluttershy (as Private Pansy) "Actually, I don't hate Commander Hurricane. I just really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really dislike her."

Geeze Fluttershy had some repressed feelings about Rainbow Dash there. I understand that they serve as character foils for one another, but damn Fluttershy I didn't think the Element of Kindness could dislike anyone so much it takes (11?) reallys to describe them!

[Plasmastorm X-15 162]

It`s a good episode...i`ll admit but the whole freezing thing was bull...

[Feather Spiral 1,892]

Whoa, so the footage I found (see MLP YouTube thread) was canon.

Will watch the rest of the episode after dinner.

Solid episode overall. I liked the backstory and the interactions among the ponies, especially PP-AJ with Applejack's snide sarcasm.

 

Song was okay too.

 

I imagine the Discord/Celestia/Luna history occurs in the timeline between Equestria's founding and the current day, maybe after the three leaders retired or passed on..

Discord ruled after them, then he was overthrown by Celestia and Luna.
