I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

On the whole, perfectly fits in with the show, yeah slightly different tone, but still just as great.

Other then that freaking High School BS of course.

Whaaaat? Shining Armor's high school issue was hilarious! Which reminds me, I haven't checked up on the comics since that one came out.

... yeah no one wants me to start up on this again.

Yeah it had a lot of good jokes, but the entire idea of a fucking High School is antithetical to everything great about Equestria.

Send for my order of the second volume of the comic series, all it needs is to be dispatched and then I'll expect it next week.

I kind of agree with Seraphem on this actually. While I did enjoy the comics for the most part, I still don't like that they basically made it just a regular high school.

@Seraphem: Just because you don't like it doesn't make it the antithesis of Equestria. But let's not start up that whole shitstorm again, because it never goes anywhere.

[up]I thought it could've been incorporated into the setting more smoothly, but I don't find anything wrong with the concept.

Instead, we can watch this gif of Pinkie Pie stuck in a 90's rap video.

Eh, I don't particularly like the comics sense of humor or the way it uses characters and the setting.

I can certainly see why people like them though, and the art is good.

I love the comics. I'm a sucker for worldbuilding and backstory.

I have a message from another time...

Add in the pinkie and rarity micros. Celestia one was goof to.

Friends Forever. 1 was meh, 2 had some good bits but just average, 3 HOLY SHIT one of the best comics yet. same for the current story arc comic. Just amazing.

New Rainbow Rocks short.

Looks like I was right, Trixie's either theA main or supporting rival in this film.

@Seraphem: My only complaint about FF #3 is that the story was relegated to the comics rather than actually used for the show.

I'm more curious in how they are all taking the whole transforming thing so calmly. Sure they should know what it is and not be TO shocked but, if their was the first time it had happened since then, should still be some "Hey how'd you do that again?"

But yeah good clip, though raises way way to many questions.

[up][up][up]I don't know how much we can determine based on those shorts. They might be setting up a rivalry with Trixie, or that might just be a fun interlude.

[up]I was wondering about that too. It seemed like the magic had left at the end of the first movie, I'd be a lot more surprised at it coming back.

Well the listed document I went through earlier had "Trixie and the Ilusions" labled, so it's possible.

The really weird thing is that they're both pretty good shred guitarists.

Well there's where the clip of RD playing the guitar and slamming into the ground with a rainboom effect came from.
