EDIT, BREAKING NEWS: M.A. Larson (writer of Magical Mystery Cure) pretty much confirms everything I'm saying about the episode in this blog.

There were some very interesting points Larson made in this video, especially about how the story editors are the ones who ultimately made the changes to the episodes. Also there may potentially be a 'Pandora's Box' type of episode coming later in the future, which does sound like an intriguing idea for a story. Looking forward to that.

Hello all. I…

No, no, this isn’t right. Not for this one. I'm going to need to stretch my multimedia capabilities to their absolute limit. Hang on a moment…

I think Rarity is controlling the weather in the Tri Cities right now. We keep driving into and out of isolated rain showers.

This is something I wrote at a comment for the Mysterious Mr Enter's review of Magical Mystery Cure. I have not changed it because I had so much raw emotion I got out that I Want it to be read as intended, I just needed to get this off my chest.

My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic was constantly in the process of reinventing itself. It started out as a "Rated E for Everyone" show that had trouble getting the word "egghead" past the censors, and ultimately evolved into the kind of program where massive battle scenes felt totally in place and appropriate.

What's this? A blog post? Couldn't be, not from me.

Anyway, to justify this out-of-character move a little more, I had a few words to say on Alicorn Ascentionism (and the Plotholes therein), and a few comments I wanted to respond to in a more substantial way, so hey, here we are! Let's get to it.
