Pony General:"Season 12 will never air" edition. - OmegazeroGA - 2012-08-13
Aircalibur421 Wrote:-I think more or less the point of "Double Rainboom" is that it's a homage, and a chance for the people involved to show off skills, be they animating, voicing, or music.
-The .MOV series (and Jappleack), the Mentally Advanced Series, Friendship is Witchcraft, many tumblr blogs; all parody. They don't draw much from the original source, other than basic character models, candy colored equines, and a few personality quirks. Sometimes they do borrow the show's tone, but not always.
-I guess what makes projects like Double Rainboom unique is how un-unique they are. They're intended to be fanmade episodes, so, what they're trying for is exactness. This... isn't something we see much. Things like "Picture Perfect Pony" work well, because it fits in with Photo Finish's personality, and it feels like part of the show's universe. The problem with a whole episode is drawing lines. What point does homage become parody? When do references to fanon or memes start to corrupt the idea of the show? Ask blogs that stay true to their characters work well because they have material to draw from; other bloggers. If they have enough people who know what the pineapple they're doing working on it, then it could be well done.
The TRUE Bottom Line:
------------------------------
Perfection...god how I hate that word. And I know quite a number of people hate it as well. Again, everything you just said led me to the conclusion of "perfection." .Mov series, Veggie, CSI, Mystery, Ezyte,Pixel. They wren't looking for that. THIS. SHOW. IS.
HOW MANY BUCKING TIMES DO I HAVE TO SAY THAT? The show doesn't have to be perfect, regardless if it is your proclaimed "homage" and whatnot, that doesn't mean they have to mock every. single. bucking. detail in their animations. I KNOW IT'S JUST A FAN-MADE EP, but for the love of Celestia, they don't have to FREAKING PHOTOCOPY EVERY. SINGLE. THING.
Now please, can I go to sleep!?
Main MAIN Point:Buck. Perfection.

Yeah, more or less. But yeah. They're all cray-cray.

I think this warrants a post; just because it made me feel fuzzy.
Check out this blog entry from David Hulegaard, Bioware Social Media guru.

Day XI, Draw a Pony Getting a Makeover

Apparently there's word that Anderson was paid was visit from his friend Weird Al....And from the Hub's official twitter, we might be expecting S3 Next month!!
IT'S ALMOST OVER. Gotta winter wrap up!
Also I gotta apologize about last night...It was just one of those nights. I was just peeved to my core and this sent me over the mountain.

I am literally dying for Season Three. Avoiding spoilers is causing my untimely death.

EVEERRTHANG.
But seriously though, I should get on that high-rez picture...but I feel sick as heck right now, I'll have up before the meds ko me first.
Oh god...Tobuscus did a Brony level on Happy Wheels...video to come tomorrow morning...or go look it up.
...And no, he isn't one, but he seems very enthusiastic about it.
Day XII, Draw a Pony leading....DONE AND DONE.

Okay, I just found out about Double Rainboom Promo 2...and to be honest...I'm pretty mixed about it. It kinda defeats my purpose of why I have a variable dislike, however, they're proving me right.
Also, the picture should be up in a few mins, I just had to retake it.

I hoped to have calmed you down a bit in your latest blog post. It's probably a bit of a mess though.

It's a mess, I swear to god about it. I was typing that thing out at almost 11pm with me clinging on to my sanity before I smash something.
On top of that, I was sick.

I'll just drop one last thought and leave it at that. Feel free to reply ONLY when you're feeling better. I'll even spoiler it so you don't have to read it immediately. You don't have to reply at all if you don't want to. Just want to get my thoughts out.

In "I can't hear what you're talking about, I'm staying out of this" news
...no news.
Welp.
(Also, I'm like super busy this week, I'll be back to being idiosyncratic next week)
Anyway: This article that popped up on EQD was kinda amusing, so I'll copy it shamelessly.

THE SPOILER HUB-BONUS MENU-COMMUNITY'S REACTIONS+MY THOUGHTS~
Once again, gotta go through routine.

[spoiler=Season Three fan reactions based on what I've seen on tumblr and such. This won't be particularly specific, I haven't seen any of the spoilers yet(sans the songs{screw you Seth})]
People seem really excited despite the whole 13 episodes thing (because we're totally getting more). As far as the fandom goes, I think a new season is in pretty much in order, we've slipped to the point of making some really weird pomegranate. I need new source material.
Whee.

Also remember, they finished season 3 back in March. Who knows? They could be working on Season 3.5 and they might place us at a Cliffhanger...OOOH Clifhangers..I love those.

Taking big precautions here, sorry. So if you guys just go full out and look at the last comment make, which likely you all don't..because come on, we post roughly 3~30 comments a day here. But yea, the spoiler I just unleashed on this thread is epic. It will make your heart stop and make you think about life all over again. Oh well. Again, this for the daring. Go ahead. If you come back out alive, quote me, and tell me your story. And make it epic. I'm a sick guy lying down on his bed and likely won't be going to school tomorrow.

2.2k is 2.2k post. Sneaky.
Alright, night guys. I'll do something for this later.
