My lifestyle, determines my deathstyle…….. God The St.Anger album was terrible hahahahaha

Though it would fit for anyone going to see it…..Like me.

B-but I liked St. Anger…

Also this:

@EQG2 trailer thingy:
You know, I thought the gifs and screenshots were kinda cute on their own, but once music was applied to them it went downhill. That has to be just about the blandest song I've ever heard and it's not even all that memorable. I watched the trailer a couple hours ago, the song just repeated itself ad infinitum and yet I already forget how it even went.

I did kinda like the first movie, but the cheese factor was a little too high for my tastes and I can only see this movie bringing the cheese level to over 9000.

@Rainbow Rocks

I can't say I have high hopes for it either, but I didn't for the first EqG – and I thought I'd like the season 3 finale…

but it turned out the latter left me with a much worse taste in my mouth. I'm not great at predicting what I'll like is what I'm saying, which is why when I figure I'll skip an episode that doesn't interest me I end up watching it like 2 days later.

>mfw

@EQG2

@Valentines

More info about the movie apparently came to light

…..Is he just talking about like background music, or like actual songs…….. Because, unless this movie is 2 hours long, how are you going to put that many in there? Even musicals can't do that unless they have alot of time. This is making me think, When did they start production of this movie?

Like I believe the first one was the cause of the shortened Third Season, And Back then I knew something was up, and that movie was the reason why, but season 4 has 26 episodes, Seriously, this is kinda getting to insane how much stuff they are putting out you know? And the first one was 70 minutes. I'm starting to think they were already making the second one, Before the first one even came out…….. Either that, or they are literally just making those guys work like a fucking China sweat shop…….

Hopefully its first thing I said…..

Also, I just watched the trailer, ( I didn't want to make myself sick before going to see Frozen, BTW I fucking love it)

And yea, Already, I'm getting those same vibes from the trailer for the first one…….. I guess history is bound to repeat itself again…….

I just want too sate one thing, okay here I go. STOP GETTING SO FUCKING WORKED UP ABOUT A MOVIE THAT IS JUST A TOOL TOO SELL TOYS TO LITTLE FUCKING GIRLS OKAY. Whew, that was nice, it was such a long time since I did all caps.

@EQG2

Everything…just, everything

Alright guys, the last rock song you listened to will be covered by the Mane 6 in Equestria Girls 2. Here's mine:

Our general concern here is the quality level of the show. The movie's performance reflects back onto the show, and if Hasbro's demanding more be cranked out full tilt, both are going to suffer. Generally, I'd like to think we're a pretty neutral crowd here, but the finer points of this "trailer" are just quite disappointing. So far most of our comments have been lighthearted because we know it is "just a trailer" and we believe in the team behind it, but we are allowed to express our annoyance with the quality of it. Besides, getting worked up is a perfectly normal thing to do.

I feel like I need to point this quote from the EW article out again:

“escaped back through the portal to Canterlot High.”

White text'd for extreme speculation. Highlight below to read it. lol.
↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓
Please tell me he knows what he's talking about. This has me quite worried. Twilight didn't "escape" back to "Canterlot High"…or did she? We don't know about the Twilight who lives in the city. We don't know where she was during the time frame of EqG1. Was he giving us major spoilers into the next films intro? I'm so hyped yet distraught! His choice of wording has me in a tizzy! While pony Twilight journeyed into the human world, did the human one get sucked into Equestria to avoid the whole "two Twilights in one place" thing? Maybe we'll get more on her journeys! Looks like at least part of the film will be based in the city!
↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑

Yea, Like what the Cute master said, it matters if this is actually good or not, because it can give a clear cut idea of what Hasbro is making them do really, Also I see a flaw with your logic,

The show was based on a toyline, and the purpose of the show is ALSO to sell toys, the reason why we ain't freaking out about it (For the most part) is because it is GREAT! Other shows back than were based on toys, and they were also good, that is why people get rightfully upset when they see some asshole go out of their way just to destroy any good moments they had with the franchise. Though you can't say that about this, since this is still the same people.

So the idea of them just making something because of the toy, is fine, You just have to make it good, and not just BE a cash scam. Anyone who thinks that it is a sin to make shows or anything based on a toy, is a fucking idiot.

Also, we have seen what they can do with this sort of material…….Most of us (even people who liked the first one) know there is nothing you can do with this concept, at least make it entertaining to watch, a second time.

@Danial

Besides, it's not like were doing an /mlp/ over all of this and threatening to douse ourselves in oil and light ourselves on fire

@chowz

What if my last song wasn't rock?

Wait, wait, we're not doing the fire thing?

Jesus, man, you could have mentioned that, like, twenty minutes ago when I was about to buy thirty freaking barrels of high-octane petroleum. What the hell am I going to do with that now? Drive a freaking race car?

The nerve of you people!

Well, something is going to be set on fire today. I don't know what, but I do know that it's going to be LezHuarez.

@Tyler talking about the number of songs:
To put things into perspective, Pinkie Pride had 6 songs in it and that was only 20 minutes long. Frozen had 9 songs, went just over 90 minutes and didn't even use musical numbers in the last third. Seeing as this movie is about music I wouldn't be surprised if Rainbow Rocks could work in 12 songs within the standard movie time. The key here, of course, is making sure the songs are used as a tool to tell the story instead of being shoved in there and getting in the way of the plot. I'm less concerned about the number of songs and more concerned about whether or not they're gonna suck. The first movie had songs that were pretty ok and at least fun to listen to, but this little snippet from the second movie tells me that we are going to be in for a long ride if we get 12 songs like that one.

I never really believed season 3 was cut short due to EQG, I'm more leaning on the theory that it had to do with syndication. I mean, the movie did have a good amount of people from the show working on this, but there weren't that many cast and crew used that it could hinder the making of the show all that much. I'm no expert on the making of shows and movies, but there is my two cents.

I've had fun enjoying today's butthurt over this trailer. I thought we were the fandom that didn't judge books by their covers anymore? It might suck, or it might not, but we won't know until it's released. Chances are it'll probably suck or maybe they learned from their mistakes with the first movie and made sure to fix all the shit that just didn't work in the last movie? They probably didn't In the end I suppose a yearly movie that'll be released every year during the Pony Hiatuses is much better than them making an entire second series possibly eating up the budget for the superior original show.

Can you imagine a world, a world where Hasbro decides that Equestria Girls is the better show and completely cuts off Friendship is Magic? I can imagine it now, obligatory sad violin music will play over /mlp/ as they have a candlelight vigil for Friendship is Magic. The fandom slowly dies off as the show everyone loved died off. Deep Depression filled the minds of those who realized they'd never see their favorite ponies in new adventures, never getting to see what new ways Pink pony would make you smile, never getting to see if Rainbow Dash ever gets in the Wonderbolts or if Rarity ever becomes a famous fashionista, no more of those wacky adventures because Hasbro decided that Highschool drama would be more interesting than the Slice of Life and Adventures FiM would venture through. Eventually deep in the darkest regions of /mlp/ a rebellion slowly forms, all the horsefuckers and 'casuals' join forces to bring down Hasbro. This small rebellion turns into a full fledged army consisting of horsefuckers and bronies from all corners of the internet, all thirsty for blood, Hasbro's blood. The fateful day arrives, the day of The Equestria Girls 3rd Season premiere. Supposed to be a happy day for The Hub and Hasbro as the launch of their successful show's new season which will no doubt break records for the Network once again. Suddenly the smell of Body odor, Monster Energy Drink and Doritos fill the air as an army of angry men and women who really LOVE their candy colored ponies talking about friendship launch their attack on the men and women they once considered to be among the best in children's entertainment. Bullets flying, people dying, windows shattering, blood splattering, bombs going off, pure unadulterated chaos. Shouts of "Twilight shouldn't have wings faggots!" and "Flash Sentry will never steal my waifu!" are heard slightly among the sound of battle. Hasbro and The Hub attempt to fight back but are no match towards the angry My Little Pony fans. As the attack reaches its climax the angry Horsefuckers and Bronies reach the President of Hasbro's office. They opened the door and The President got scared And said, “You’re movin’ with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air.” I whistled for a cab and when it came near The license plate said fresh and it had dice in the mirror If anything I could say that this cab was rare But I thought, “Nah, forget it. Yo home to Bel-Air!” I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8 And I yelled to the cabby yo holmes smell ya later Looked at my kingdom I was finally there To sit on my throne as the prince of Bel-Air.

Oh well, I'll wait and see how this movie will turn out before pulling out the Doom Paul gifs (which I have plenty of).

That's true about the songs. Usually ponies don't last that long either. Love is in Bloom clocked in at about 1:30, Hearts as Strong as Horses was about 3, Make a Wish was 0:55 sec. He's probably also counting the intro, which for EqG1 was 1:30. average that over 12 songs and you've only got 18 minutes of song, which out of 66 minutes and is less than 30% of the movie.

Have a space filler gif:

AHHHHHH! Too late to change my post! Oh well. Here, have some videos I just stumbled across on Hasbro's YT channel.

They have a whole bunch of really dumb "Meet X" vids too, but these were more related to today. lol.

Also… (minor episode spoilers)

@EQG2

I'll probably just watch it, and get a full opinion afterwards. Judging from that trailer, it doesn't look that bad, mostly just cliché.

I'd like to see how they would animate that ending solo, especially the sweeps.

OH MY GOD, YES.

Also, happy heart day!

(If I wasn't crap at image-editing, I might've done a picture of "Molestia" holding this one)

Also, back to discussing songs? Am I missing something because I'm pretty sure they make their own. If it's just a discussion of what would be cool to see (i.e. like with crossover discussions), then that's fine and I'm not complaining but it sounded like sincere expectations of these songs being used (though I'm probably just being a dunce).

Welp…Finally finished an update, and its now officially a Valentines day update.

…Since I've been doing something slightly new with rendering, I think I'll share.

Link to blog in case nobody here remembers what it is

…I haven't linked there in ages have I?

Happy St. Valentine's Day!

Have some Fluff.

So, if I may inject some good news into this discussion, Hasbro recently announced that they have plans for MLP extending five years into the future. If each of those years has a 26-episode season, that means 130 additional episodes on top of what we'll have at the end of season 4. It also means that this show will have run for nine freaking years – or, about as long as Seinfeld was on the air.

I'd call that good news.

Man, these forums are weird.

Anyway, I just hope they can do something beyond relying on teenage stereotypes to fuel possible character interaction. I mean God Almighty, how much more shallow can you get than thinking all teenagers care about hip rock bands.

Welp, I guess it can't be nearly as bad as my mind is making it seem. Won't be good either, but not bad. I can only wait.

But seriously, holy shit. This ride is longer than Steel Dragon 2000!

@Platus

>5 more years

Japan surely knows how to make OP's..

As long as the show doesn't drop in quality then I would not object to 9 years of My Little Pony. You know, as long as they cut the show at 9 years unlike the milking of the Simpsons, Spongebob and Fairly Odd Parents. I just hope that The Hub and Hasbro have the balls to cut their cash-cow when the time comes, I have witnessed far too many beloved childhood shows of mine go from having characters and stories that I would say are among the greatest and funniest characters to ever exist go from what I just described, to the absolutely dreadful characters that I just want to watch die horribly. I mean I used to think Spongebob was the shit back when I was a kid but now he hasn't been "In Character" since 2005 (or '04 if you're one of those Spongebob Elitists who think everything past 2004 sucks). Imagine if we were to ever get that way involving our lovable ponies? Imagine if we ever saw Jimmy post "Goddamn, I absolutely hate how they fucking butchered Applejack and Vinyl Scratch over the years!"

Now I have a reason to live for the next 5 years.

We are disagreed.

I think one of the most important things for a show to do is terminate before it overstays its welcome. Mlp is already starting to get a bit exhausted, trying to grind 5 more years out is just going to get painful.

@EqG2
Ew

@Crash
You mean something like this?

Just woke up and I needed a little something to get my brain jogging, thus the image.
I hope y'all had a great Hearts and Hooves Day everypony!

@Five more years of pony
I'm siding with the people who are squeamish about this. I'm totally scared for the future of mlp. I think we can pretty much say right now that MLP is long overdue for the "quit while you're ahead" ending. Certain episodes in season 4 ahem Power ponies ahem ahem Flutterbat ahem are already showing the writers are getting a bit less creative with the show. I love this show to eternal bits and it'd be such a shame to see them get turned into something with a lot less luster.

I saw the first book's cover, thought it would suck. Read it. It did suck. Now I'm looking at the sequel's cover. Why should I expect it to be any different?

Not to throw a wet blanket onto the ride, but that's how long they plan Gen 4 to last. Not necessarily the show itself. Nine years--just as long as Gen 3 was around for. It's gonna be interesting if that's a hard number or not. I bet they're going "there's no way the cash cow will still be producing in five years!" I doubt they'd be willing to kill the cow in five years if it's still putting out.

Poor Crashgordon, he hops onto the ride only for it to turn a corner and reveal five years' worth of track.

Do you even corporate governance?

I think we're all forgetting one important piece of information in the midst of EqG2 and Mr Goldner's Wild Ride getting a five year extension.

February's National Shitstorm Month. Twilicorn, EqG, EqG2, five year ride extension, the above spoiler, etc. Tis a sweet time of year.

@xTSGx:

@Hearts amd hooves day
Once again, all of you are a day late to wish me a happy hearts and hooves day. You know what? Who needs you guys. Because for once, I actually mustered up the nerve to show my affection to someone that I care about this Valentines.

…I said some one not some thing.

…Well, I showed affection to both.

@5 more years of pony
Eh, I don't think there's going to be too much seasonal rot with this show. I mean, on one hand, 5 years is a lot of time to do something really stupid, but on the other hand I'm pretty sure that at this point the show staff should have a basic understanding of the 'do's and 'do not's of keeping the bronies happy. I doubt we'll be seeing any more Mane 6-icorns anytime soon (though I do hope these EqG movies keep to themselves).

As for general quality, there's still a lot of room for the show to stretch its legs. We've already touched on Scootaloo's inability to fly, plus a few upcoming episodes look like they're going to be expanding on other elements the show has already introduced but has yet to fully explore ( Spoilers! More on the poison joke, more on one of Pinkie's sisters and what looks like an episode that'll explore Applejack's motherly relationship towards Applebloom. No promises yet, but we could be seeing more dead parent drama. Won't that be fun! ) Not to mention we still have other left-overs to get through eventually. The CMC still need to get their marks, chances are Gilda and Trixie are going to come back eventually, we have all this buisness with Vinyl Scratch… my point is that I don't think this show is going to get stale for a while yet.

I've always said that I think 6 seasons would be about right, but nine isn't too bad… Assuming that this is a "Five more years before it stops" sort of thing and not a "Five years minimum" one.

You know what the best thing about that spoilered image below me is? If I didn't spoiler it, nobody would know that it was a spoiler. The only reason I'm spoilering it at all is so that you clever monkeys don't come to the realization in the middle of watching the next episode.

Something awesome happened last week. Every Friday evening, I have a female tutor who comes to my house and teaches school stuff for me every week for a school subject I take. During the tutoring session last week, when I accidentally minimized all of my windows on my laptop, it revealed an MLP background. She saw the background and realized how cute the ponies were in the background. I blushed at first, but I told her what it was, the show I watched, and why I liked it. After the tutoring session, I showed her some of the stuff I watched, and she was immediately intrigued by the adorableness of the ponies. She watched some of the Season 4 episodes on Youtube after that week, but she was unable to find Season 1 episodes. I told her to watch the older episodes on Daily Motion, and showed the clip from Season 1 Episode 1 tonight.

Long story short, I converted someone into a brony, and it felt awesome. My tutor's current favorite pony is Pinkie Pie.

Hey guys, so I was wondering. Since AGL is such a success, I was thinking, hey! where's Molestia? okay I know that Pinkiepony and her crew of SJWs bitched and moaned about how the blog "Supports rape culture" but, would it really be that bad if they brought her back? I mean like not Permanently, but just for a like a…I don't know like 2 or 5 part comic about she got kidnapped by, you guessed it! none other then Pinkiepony! but this is where you come in. How would you like too see the Molestia kidnaped by Pinkiepony scenario go on?

@Blue Yoshi: I read that first line as "something awful" lol. But,

At least she didn't run into clop first. XD

@Danial: There would be much rage….I'M GAME!

The prevailing theory right now is that the button caused Luna to absorb Molestia in some way, turning moonbutt into some kind of sexually-promiscuous homunculus who also plays video games. I say we let this play out.

I know I'm late for Hearts and Hooves day, but I wrote you guys a poem.

Roses are red
Blue Screen is blue
I'll jack off non sexually
Before I rape you

…..I'm going to bed now

Princess Molestia and Princess Insestia fused together??? All hell will break loose…

Another Fluttershy episode another 22 minute long Diabeetus attack. Also, we got to hear Big Mac sing…..and not as a backup singer like in Apples to the Core. All I can say is….this is one of those episodes where Pinkie Pie goes from likable to pretty goddamn annoying, with a few good one liners (Like the Turkey Call).

But hey, we've got Fluttershy adorableness! We just have to wait for more people to make gifs and I can see this turning into "Fluttershy being adorable thread"
EDIT: Here's the gif I wanted to use

Kewln00b was all like:

Imagine if we ever saw Jimmy post “Goddamn, I absolutely hate how they fucking butchered Applejack and Vinyl Scratch over the years!”

D-don't put those thoughts into my head…

So yeah I'm gonna episode now. See you guys in a bit.

That was a fantastic episode!

"Pinkie, stop being ridiculous!"
"But I'm so good at it!"

Priceless.

Edit: Page get! Have the official page song in honor of this episode!
