Fun with ArtRage : D

So, for now, the new season will have the following (warning, spoilers, obviously):

Spoiler

• Rarity episode (some new writer doing it)
  
• Pinkie Pie musical epsiode (she meets someone who "beats her at her own game"... written by Amy Keating Rogers [Briddle Gossip, Applebuck Season,...])
  
• Pinkie Pie's family will make an appearance (her sis)
  
• 15-20 songs, of which some are sang by characters which never sang before
  
• CMC vs Golden Tiara and the other one at least once (from some yet unfinished footage)
  
• "Apples Forever" song - Apples and Pinkie singing
  
• LUNA becomes Nightmare Moon again
  
• No Babs, but we should see Zecora
  
• Super hero parody episode (Mane 6 visits Manehatten)

Aaand here's a less TL;DR version over at Equestria daily: http://www.equestria...main-panel.html

And lastly, here's the video:

[Majorfatboy]

The Sweetie bot thing comes from a fan parody /redub of the show, called "Witchcraft is magic". One "episode" had a plot about robots disguised as normal ponies living amongst everyone else, completely unaware of what they were. At which point We hear Sweetie belle talk, now dubed in an obviously artificial synth-voice, with rigid, commander data styled dialog, and making mechanical noises whenever she moved. The gag was that while it was painfully obvious to the viewer the Sweetie was a robot, now one else -not even Sweetie- knew.

This caught on big time with fans, who named her "Sweetie bot", and started churning out jokes, pictures, and whatnot.

Hasbro ordered "Friendship is Witchcraft" pulled from you tube, presumably because it used actual footage from the show, along with really good editing and voice acting, and looked a lot like an official product, but portrayed the characters in a very.... negative manner. Fluttershy's now a creepy cult leader, Applejack may or may not have committed war crimes back in the day, Etc.

Thanks for the explanation... heck I even watched an episode of that thing. Hillarious, but it's like watching the voice actors for me. If I watched the whole thing, I'd never get over seeing some of their FiW personalities leak out to the normal show.

For those who don't mind spoilers about S4, the video had one more detail in it:

Spoiler

The episode numbers:

CMC and Equestria Games - episode 5
Superponies - episode 6
Apple song - episode 9
Nightmare moon - ending of episode 1

And to ponify thy post a little.



EDIT: What's with all these broken pics... Is it working now?

Can I ask what's that Sweetie bot thing all about? I've heard it a few times, but this makes zero sense to me.

Also, it's the D-Day... well, more like Pony-Day, but anyway.

On another note, someone seems to have the same kind of "appretiation" for dubstep as I do (it's a flash animation, so no direct link is possible, you'll just have to watch it on DA): http://pandramodo.de...set=10#comments

Hey if you think Sweetie bot is odd, wait till you learn about Thrackerzod.

Also, Hub's doing the Fan favorite thing again... worth checking out even if only for the candidature videos.

P.S: Oh, and don't forget to vote for Fluttershy... if you don't mind. You know you want to, though... right?

I'm not sure I could vote for Fluttershy, there's only 1 Pegasus pony cool enough to vote for - Rainbow Dash.

[Majorfatboy]

I voted ten times.



ALL FOR APPLEJACK

Anyone else overcome with nostalgia at the Secrets of the Hidden Temple part?

All 9 hours? Just guessing you weren't living somewhere near the northern pole with nights that could accomondate for the +/- 18 hours season 1 and 2 have combined.

@Stahlseele: Random poster mods, the bane of any forum which is not united in it's views on certain bigger things...

Nope, just a college student and it was the summer before season 2 so I just watched the first season

Anyone who hasn't checked out Sarah's jenner should consider donating. Only $10 and it goes directly to cancer research!
aaaaand it has a unicorn on the back, what more could you ask for?

[CompproB237]

At first I feel bad that I will be shooting this jenner in the back, but then it has a pony there (GREAT Target). I'm torn!

unicorn on the back, rainbow on the front. Sarah's jenner is sooo full of win! I'm nervocited!

[Egomane]

I need to get back to the Equestra Girls movie once more.

By now, a lot of the viewers know, that Derpy (human form) can be seen twice in the movie.

Spoiler

Once in the end credits, dancing with her muffin.


Walking through the screen in the lower right corner during "Helping Twighlight win the crown".


Who gave her that letter, that she is blushing so much?

I just found her a third time

Spoiler

This is still during the "Helping Twighlight win the crown" song, standing in the background and dancing with her muffin, with ears and tail attached.

Now I'm on a crusade ... will I spot her even more often?

Isn't that the fanfiction from the SDCC Q&A?

Also, we have the date of Season 4 premiere... 23rd of November!

That's 121 days of waiting... that's goona be a LOT of 'CMC wait for season 4' repeats...

You just stepped up the definition of a hardcore fan...

On the other hand, won't it be a bit of a nuisance when walking around a beach?
