LoadingReadyRun: Pony Time
- Thread starter Graham_LRR
- Start date
...I like My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic... though admittedly, not to the degree that other people do. Seriously, the crazy fans ruin everything for everyone else...
That's totally what I'd say I was watching if someone caught me watching MLP.
"What are you watching?"
"Porn . . . hardcore porn . . ."
However, I have to ask LRR if that horror-shifty-focus thing was intentional? I noticed it on Graham when it was close up and he was explaining the show to Kathleen, and then it kinda showed up other times too.
Also, I wouldn't have believed Matt was really a pony fan by the way he praised the show at the start. Seemed really forced, and I kinda got the impression that he was the only one in the crew who wasn't interested in the subject.

The de Lancie revelation almost got me to finally watch the show, but if bio-mechanical grafting is at odds with MLP perhaps I should return to ignoring it. Thanks for the heads up Slycne, you saved me from an embarrassing internet history.Slycne said:

I enjoyed the end of this episode XD dirty filthy porn...
On the subject of MLP, i'm kind of in the "you guys can watch what you want" category, I watched the first episode and all i could think was "meh, its okay" too many ponies saying things like "everypony" for me to want to continue though, just not for me.
though i WILL say the massive amount of gifs and images and memes i've had thrown at me (and simply thrown around in forum threads) are quite annoying...its not something that makes me hate the show or the fanbase...so yeah

I have waited for an episode like this to come out.
So. MUCH. WIN.
LRR + MLP:FiM = *Tears of joy*

I enjoyed the episode, but did the quality seem a bit off to anyone else? It might be because it's been a while since the last cH, but the delivery and the lines both felt a bit forced.
That said, the jokes that stuck, stuck well.

Among other things, I agree with Kathleen that "Pega-sister" just isn't as good a word as "Brony." The latter is simply so much easier to say.
You know, I'm kind of glad that I don't live in the Commodore Hustle universe. Seems LRR videos there are a lot more fun to talk about than they are to watch. I prefer this universe's LRR.
I myself only started watching MLP this past weekend. Before you go all "welcome to the herd" on me, I feel I should mention that this wasn't a major turnabout, or even surprising to my friends. I have always appreciated quality cartoons, Avatar being one of my favorites.
I bring this up because I want to compare this to an essay that C.S. Lewis wrote on the subject of adults enjoying material aimed at children. To paraphrase, he said that growth is found in adding new things to your perspective, not in discarding one thing in favor of something else. In essence, I liked kid's shows as a kid, and now that I am older I like kid's shows and "adult" shows. I have grown, not by abandoning old things, but by adding new ones to my collection.

I imagine that this will be the cause of considerable frustration on the part of the rest of the crew. Hopefully people will read your post here, or notice that you've mentioned it elsewhere, otherwise I foresee Graham talking angrily about it in the next LRRcast.Matt_LRR said:
