Points of Canon: S3x01-02 - The Crystal Empire · 8:32pm Sep 14th, 2017
A very far reaching episode, this one.
A very far reaching episode, this one.
Now you see Lightning Dust.
In the last months, we've seen these ponies
On many an inner journey,
And to end this season, I have composed
This poetic summery.
First Twilight went to the Crystal Empire
(In the loosest sense of the word),
To save it from King Sombra,
Let the Flugglehorn be heard!
Then Pinkie thought to clone herself
In order to increase her fun,
But that wasn't such a good idea
When all was said and done.
And the Cutie Mark Crusaders
Added Babs Seed to their ranks,
Not terribly shabby, for six hours work. I haven't touched a video editor in five years.
0/10 - AWFUL (unsalvageable, nothing to be gained from watching it, never should have been made, wouldn't recommend to anyone, completely butchers an important subject/teaches a horrible and downright toxic moral)
1/10 - HORRIBLE/BORING (tedious to sit through, hurts to watch it, a bore, no reason to watch it, whatever positive things about it are tiny and not enough to save it)
Hi-ho, all.
While I posted my thoughts about this elsewhere, I figured I'd give a more complete rendering here. Just because.
Not much Season 3 left.
I could do more comics, but frankly, I don’t like any of the ones past #53 to be excited about it. And there’s still more Season 3 left…
You know, that girl, who somehow never comes back properly again.
EPISODE 1 will only be published once all of PART 1 is finished.
If it isn't finished, I'll push the release date back.
I'm so far behind on Pony it's not even funny. The last episode I remember seeing was Made In Manehattan.
You got to be kidding me.
*checks channel*
OH!
MY!!
GOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooD!!!
I am going to do the season 3 opening pool “battle”
Grading Scale:
A (fantastic episode)
A- (an excellent episode with at least one flaw)
B+ (a great episode with a couple of flaws)
B (a good episode which still could have been better)
B- (a good episode with numerous flaws but still rewatchable)
After MLP: FiM ended, I embarked on a bit of a personal journey, as you well know. My goal: to look at the show with fresh eyes, and offer you fresh perspectives.
Well, I've been at it for a year and a half now. As I compile my reflections on Seasons 1 through 4, and attempt to turn them into a book, I keep finding myself putting certain episodes off, time and time again.
Warning: Spoilers from the latest episode Games Ponies Play abound. Proceed with caution.
