Ceep Calm and Cup Cakes, y'all.

I loved this song before the remix, and it sounds even better (slightly) afterwards. :-D

As a soulless robot, I am a great fan of this series, and every day I aspire to learn of things like love and emotion the way <entity Sweetie Bot> has.

I made a !sweetiebot command on IRC. It spits out a random SweetieBOT line! :ohboy:

So here's a casual skype interview, about 2 hours long.

Much better than that last one.

Listened to the whole thing right after I saw it on EqD. Apparently it was 4 hours long before trimming, so that's probably where all the awkward pauses went.

Looks like there's still a long way to go until FiW6. A 30 second long TS/Luna song sounds intriguing.

Why did they have to point out that Granny Smith was alive in episode 3? Nobody would've ever noticed!

The Luna song is going to be called "Princess of the Night". It's going to be badass, I can already tell.

e: It's a Twi and Luna duet! Hell yes.
e2: And there'll be an extended version later for sure.

I just restarted "Dragone Baby Gone" to look for Granny, and noticed that the worms Fluttershy threw to the birds are screaming. :gonkity:

Just checked this out, are you sure it's not a rooster? I can't tell.

Turns out they think of themselves as surrealists rather than absurdists.

"I think the sensation I'd most like to cause in people that watch it is like, imagine that you're watching just a real episode of My Little Pony but you notice early on that Applejack's face seems to be melting, and as it progresses it's melting more and more and everything else is so normal but something's really wrong and you're a little scared--and it's also funny, but mainly you're scared."

That makes sense. "Absurdism" carries a burdensome connotation, that you do what you have to do, no matter what. Even when you don't like it, the fact that you must go along and deal with what's there is where life has meaning. The fact that absurdist works of art seem to feature a lot of bizarre, surrealistic non-sequitur is basically a byproduct of the "no matter what" part, and in FiW, there's not really any sense that the characters find any meaning in doing what they have to do (which they really DON'T have to do).

Just from reading the title there, I know where she shows up. I don't know what that says about either of us.

My 12-year-old stepson watched the entire FiW series with me tonight. He laughed at the orphanage song & loved Sweetie Bot and that is awesome. :yay:

Then he outed me to his mom and now she thinks I'm weird. :fluttersmith:

The only solution is getting her into it, too.

(?) · by **okan170** (?) » Tue Feb 21, 2012 3:15 am

My conception of Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon has been forever destroyed by FiW. It just seems so wrong to hear the non-FiW voice come from those two!

(?) · by **Grue** (?) » Sat Feb 25, 2012 7:15 pm

Ska punk version of Sweetie's Big Race. I always thought this song would sound awesome with guitars. Vocals are kinda weak though.

http://soundcloud.com/jesse-carlson1/sw ... s-big-race

EDIT: Found youtube version with video (btw I like how my idea to join the part where Sweetie sings in the forest at the beginning became the "definitive" version of the song, this is like the third cover I've seen that includes it).

I don't know why I never noticed before now that all the lines in the first version of the song are supposed to rhyme with "Applejack."

For alternate lines, these are all pretty hilarious. I really like the entire sweetie bot section.

Poor poor Silver Spoon. Also, "FIRE IS MADE OF THE SUN."

I think its a reaction to him being referred to as "Doctor Whooves", since The Doctor is always British. So, uh, now he isn't? :pinkieshrug:

I think it's a reference to the joke of Apple Bloom speaking Applenese.

I speak Japanese. :sheepish:

(?) · by **Ragnar** (?) » Wed Feb 29, 2012 8:13 am

I figure it follows from the Applejack face-melting quote. It makes no sense and yet the narrative acts as if it does, but the audience knows it doesn't, so there's that moment when your brain stumbles. This stumble is, so far as I can tell, the point of surrealism.

I assumed it was this too "You fans have me down as a British sci-fi character in your headcanons but… I'M AMERICAN. so yah boo sucks to you

"

I like some of those alternate takes, but then it made me realize that Silver Spoon's VA has a tendency to peter out and die at the end of every single line. :applejargh:

(?) · by **blasmeister** (?) » Thu Mar 01, 2012 12:28 am

damnit FiW, making me like Silver Spoon so much, then disappointing me when the real version doesn't come close to this version's greatness :memories:

(?) · by **Pocket** (?) » Thu Mar 01, 2012 3:07 am

I just had an idea! While we wait for the next one, let's try to guess the pun they'll be using for the title. We already know the episode it'll be based on. My guess: "Dork Side of the Moon."

(?) · by **thatbastardken** (?) » Thu Mar 01, 2012 4:28 am

"Flay me to the Moon"?

"Going Through an Awkward Phase"?

I got nothing. :pinkieshrug:

I just watched the Sub video. ARGLEBLARGLE I exploited mah dotter fo' persunal gain ARGLEBLARGLE
Between that and the entire Diamond Tiara reel ("I need that it is very important I need that'') my day has been made.
Also I am not good at puns so I will not be throwing my hat into the Guess The Name game. :pinkieshrug:

(?) · by **Momar** (?) » Thu Mar 01, 2012 5:26 am

I'm hoping they'll go the allusion route and make it "My Fair Luna" or something.

I got nothing.

(?) · by **okan170** (?) » Thu Mar 01, 2012 8:55 am

Arg, posted the same thing twice. Anyway, I really love that these unused lines show just how much attention gets put into making FiW. The fact that most of the material in that video is still damn funny shows that they've got their act down pat. Heck, they've even got a few running jokes across multiple episodes there that were never even used! :crack:

Another thing I just now caught on a re-watch: As Fluttershy and Rarity are leaving the conversion spa, the recorded message starts playing again in the background.

This show parody, man. This freaking show parody.

When parodies get as good as their shows. This is awesome, really, can´t wait for the next one.

Watching the unused lines with youtube CC is kinda fun too. Also, this came up:

Waayyy back in /mlp/'s first couple of days, Griffin did an AMA and this was probably the only interesting answer that got out of it.

The duet thing was already brought up earlier, but extended version? :rariwhat:
