Well, apparently "Fame and Misfortune" was an unfinished Larson script that Larson himself wasn't thrilled with, which just further bumps the episode down in my opinion. I'm not sure if it's a form of plagerism to take someone else's unfinished work without permission and tweak it, even if you credit them. The show has had other writers rewrite episodes written by a different writer before, but they have always credited the author for the original story, meaning that someone wasn't brave enough

The spoilers tag probably isn't warranted, seeing as the movie's been out on DVD/Blu-Ray for quite a while, not to mention digital media. But all the same there are those who probably haven't seen the movie yet for whatever reason. So I'd erring on the side of caution.

Well, considering the number of times they've tossed a Hearth's Warming episode at us, and gave us a second Nightmare Night episode a few seasons back, it was inevitable they'd throw out a second Hearts and Hooves Day episode. Nick Confalone is in the writer's seat for this episode, and now we know that the season is gonna right through "Mean Six" before it hits the mid season hiatus we've been getting for the past several years. Nick Confalone's track record is mostly solid, but between "No

So yeah, as I’ve already told some of you, I’m always hungry for more Tempest stories. Seeing as how the movie is actually released now, I figured I’d write another one. Third time’s the charm, after all!

I fondly present to you: The Scars of the Past!

In case you haven't heard, the MLP movie got leaked.

Be careful of spoilers, and do not post leaked movie images on Derpibooru.

They will ban you for a month.

Even though my city got themselves an Alamo Drafthouse Theater earlier this year, I actually haven't visited it until last night. And I gotta say, making my first visit to the theater for My Little Pony: The Movie of all things was a pretty special moment! I met a bunch of other bronies since it was a 10:15pm showing (there was literally one little kid there), I got to experience what the Alamo Drafthouse was about, and I had a really good time watching the movie.

Well you should be aware of this by now, but the rest of Season 7 got leaked early because apparently someone at Hasbro got hacked (but considering Hasbro hasn't issued take downs on Daily Motion yet I suspect it's more them just being fed up with Discovery Family and looking for other ways to get the episodes out). With the synoposis for this episode and the episode ending itself being spoiled thanks to the IDW comics (apparently this episode was actually twenty first in production order so

I'm sitting here in a local coffee shop on the town square with 15% battery remaining and a completed draft of the next part of Chapter 6 waiting for me to proofread it. I FINALLY managed to finish typing out that long conversation with Luna. Expect that tonight or tomorrow, and the rest of the chapter to roll out within the week!

A snippet for those of you who like spoilers from the raw drafts...

“What’s a Deep One?” Twilight asked.

Yes, you heard it right, folks! This episode got leaked early, but not from another country like Canada or Australia, the blame is solely on Hasbro. Apparently, someone wasn't aware that "Daring Done" and "To Change A Changeling" were airing out of production order ("Daring Done" was 17th in production order and "To Change A Changeling" 18th) and put "Daring Done" up early on YouTube, albeit requiring you to pay $3 if you wanted to see it in the U.S. But fans payed for the early episode and put

Well, we found out the origins of the Tree of Harmony- it grew from a seed created by Starswirl and the rest of the Pillars of Old Equestria sacrificing themselves, sealing themselves away with the Pony of Shadows.

And that officially puts the show and comics in conflict again as Starswirl found the tree in the comics.

I actually saw this two parter back when it was first leaked, but I was content to wait for it to air in the U.S. to give it a proper review. Josh Haber returned to write this finale, but while he takes solo credit for the story he was helped on writing with Nicole Dubac, who will become executive producer of the show next season. Nicole is like G. M. Berrow, her previous writing credit are tie in chapter books, her books focus on the CMC with the only one available at the moment being

With "School Daze" having kicked off Season 8 with style, it's time to see whether we can break the curse of the third episode that's been plaguing the seasons since Season 5 ("Castle, Sweet Castle" was an appalling mess, "Gift of the Maud Pie" had a huge plot hole from shoe horning in Rarity, and "A Flurry of Emotions" was too late into the show to fit properly with Twilight's character). Following up on the hit from the previous season that was "Rock Solid Friendship", Nick Confalone returned

"I have to find a way to make this all okay...I can't believe obeying her could have led to a huge mistake"

Okay, so I got to watch this episode of Equestria Girls today and I have only one thing to say....

Horrible

That’s right, you heard me. Rollercoaster of Friendship was the worst episode of this series I ever watched. As with Forgotten Friendship, I will be giving the pros and cons of this episode.

Cons:

Holy Hell....

I think Hasbro actually outdid themselves with Forgotten Friendship.

Pluses:

Seeing the reunion between Sunset and Celestia was a long time coming and it was executed perfectly. I was literally screaming in joy when Princess Twilight suggested that they needed to see Princess Celestia.

So, coming off the exciting 200th episode, what does Season 9 have in store for us? Why, another Twilight Sparkle freak out episode of course. Look, alongside her obsession with books this part of her character was fine at first, but the more you keep focusing on it the more it feels like it's all her character has become: Books and freak outs. If it's getting to the point where you can lampshade it and have other characters poke fun at it in universe, that's a sign that you've become too

So, after a disastorus first outing for the student six this season, we've got our first solo focus episode for them. This one focusing on Yona, and Rarity. Considering the most we got a season ago was Spike and Smolder hanging out in two episodes, this is long overdue. Also, first and foremost, this episode review is dedicated in memory of MythrilMoth, a FiMFiction user famous for his OOCST blog postings among other things, who sadly passed away sometime between last Sunday night and Monday

Well, Italy basically aired this and the next two episodes early but in Italian. And now supposedly Canada is going to start doing double episodes each week, meaning they could potentially overtake the U.S. in airing new episodes. I doubt it will happen, but at this point Hasbro might actually not care, they might just think "It's the last season, the sooner we can dump it the sooner we can move on" (I hope that's not their mentality). Anyway, with an episode focused solely on the villains, we
