It's Friday, which means a fun fact! Today's fact is that the first MLP movie (based on the original show, not FIM or EG) was Marvel's "first domestic theatrical film", which is to say that it was the first movie Marvel played in the US. Knowing the movies Marvel makes today, finding out that they made a movie meant for little girls, especially in the days before bronies, was surprising to say the least.

I'm back from a week's holiday, so here's a very late episode review! No need to avoid spoilers after a week, so: I thought this was a solid episode, but one that could have been so much better. In particular, why wasn't the song turned into a huge, all-dancing Bollywood extravaganza? I was confidently expecting the reprise to be just that... and then it wasn't. Okay, it was Bollywood-ish, but where was the completely ridiculous sudden entrance of 200 whirling dancers,

G’Day, everybody. This is your friendly movie and TV show reviewer in the house.

Today, I’ll be making my 6th TV show review by reviewing “Fetch! with Ruff Ruffman”.

So, its begun, a new season, so lets review, starting with a rating...

ΩΩΩ out of 6

Yah, that's a rather low rating, and its not that its a bad episode, but its just an episode. Really, just look back at the season openers we've had, from starting the show to last season, and they were all (mostly?) true two parters, and powerful episodes.

This episode was written by the same team who did "Rarity Investigates", so I had high hopes. It wasn't quite up to those standards, but it was still better than last week's instalment. Some of that was due to the cold open, which had Fluttershy in Maximum Adorableness Mode -- which, as everyone knows, I'm a sucker for. She didn't do much in the episode proper until near the end, though. Twilight was interesting: she seems increasingly confident about her royal status these days; I wonder

I think it’s because I find it uncomfortable watching violence(even cartoon violence) done against humans. I dunno, I guess I’m just that squeamish.

That or I hate people. Which ever works.

Turning Red (April 21st)

Shrek 2 (April 26th)

Jurassic Park (April 28th)

This was pretty good fun. Yes, there was a whole heap of fanservice in those dreams -- and a Luna episode is basically fanservice already -- but unlike "Slice of Life", there was an actual story in there as well -- and one which included a genuine, and apparently major, threat to Equestria as a whole. A reminder, if any were needed, that this is not a safe land. The ep'll stomp all over quite a few headcanons, but there's nothing wrong with that. I do wonder about that final

...is that, if this Hasbro update is actually correct, there's going to be a mid-season hiatus.

It was too good to be true.

Edit: Yeah, I know there's a lot more to life than this show. But this isn't a general-interest blog!

Show, Don't Tell is still being revised, creativity simply had to come to me for me to start writing it.

A Dragon's Duality will be my main story for now, I simply enjoy the idea more than Show, Don't Tell. Whether once both are finished one is better is up to you.

SDT will most likely be a one chapter story that, as I said before, has a similar concept, but completely different outcome. It will be long and will only be as long as I deem it needs to be.

Happy reading!

For some odd reason I have been watching a bit more TV than I normally do, and for some reason, I have had 3 different ideas rolling around in my head, and for some odd reason I have the desire to share one.

Well, that was pretty dull for the most part. Not actively terrible, but really pretty unexciting; it felt like one of the less involving Season One slice-of-life episodes. Applejack was weirdly portrayed, Spike didn't do anything of note and there's what seems to be a glaring continuity error. Forgettable filler. ★★

Finally!.... Right?

I know I've been promising, and teasing for far too long. (It's not worth the wait) But all that is left is the final editing, and it will be posted tonight. If not in a few hours time. It's only fluff, kinda meh but setting up for stuff later in the story. Some people wanted more, as well as more story so this is what I threw together.

Meh. Really felt like a filler, this one, and I can't help noticing that its writer was Neal Dusedau, whose previous work was on the teleplay for "Princess Spike". It probably doesn't help that Bob Ross isn't a big pop-culture phenomenon in the UK. (I don't think we even got his show on British TV back in the day.) I felt sorry for Twilight, especially as I've been in her position here, and it's not at all enjoyable. I actually felt her friends (and Discord) were being

Time is short (because of UK PonyCon looming), so this will be a short one, and I'll leave the spoilery waffle for Louder Yay in a day or two's time. This was a pretty weird episode, but in the end it was well worth it. It was great to see an Apple Family ep that (mostly) didn't involve Applejack; not that I have anything against AJ, but she's not everything. Big Mac got to talk a whole lot (in a way...) and we got a really interesting look at his character for the first time. There was

This show aired in 1984, which makes it 2 years older than me. Those of us who had a bit of our childhood in the early 90’s might have seen it, I know I did, but chances are most 90’s kids didn’t see this

And in case you’re wondering, it actually looks worse than I remember it. Thankfully I can’t remember any of the other characters from the show, but it would have probably fared better if it had been animated.

I'm up sitting in my living room at 6:40 AM.

I've been up since 2:00 AM mind you.

Been a long while since I've blogged , so why not?

How is the RNG that is life been treating you?

I've rolled several Critical Fails myself recently.

One trusting that people can change.
