*Stops in* I'm a fan of the show, just FYI. *Struts out*

Is your avatar of a colt? XD

A friend made it for me, technically yes it is still a colt. It's my MLP persona.

It's awesome XD He looks quite playful.

The episode was a little predictable today, but Rainbow Dash's catburglar outfit made it worth it.

I agree that the episode was a bit predictable and formulaic but the cat burglar outfit really made my day.

Pfft.  Crime dramas are usually pretty damned predictable too, especially after you know who the baddie is.  That doesn't stop people from enjoying the journey and the character interaction. :)

I'm just glad to see a pro-reading episode.  I fucking love reading. :3

Two squeaky smiles. Loved that.

Also a big fan of the Rainbow Dash burgling outfit.

“Screwy” pony was pretty funny, too.

It's also especially funny in the whole "MLP is Ableist!" drama.

Somehow, I didn’t think of that. Maybe because I have been staying out of the drama.

As the joke's going amongst the pre-readers:  Metal Gear Dashie.

And really, Dash as narrator? Nice.  Very nice.

How the hell did the episode make MLP ableist? I didn't get a single vibe of that.

I too liked the burglar suit.

Last Roundup.  People got bitchy at Hasbro for making Derpy... well, Derpy.  Suddenly it's a 'take that' against the retarded and somehow ableist.

No, I don't get it either.  As one of the other pre-readers put it on his blog post:  This is why we can't have nice things."

Oh, I thought you meant Read It and Weep. I thought they made Derpy that way because she was famous among the fandom as Derpy, and it suited her name.

They did, but there were people that got pissed about it.

The entire reason I found this episode funny was because they had a mentally disabled pony barking and played it for laughs.  And considering the ableist drama that's been going on, it's even funnier because, while I know this isn't the truth, it was almost considered a "take that".

Honestly I think the outrage over Derpy would have not been an issue had Tabatha realized that Derpy is a girl

So here's a question with no clear answer.  How much of the story was RD's imagination, and how much was part of the book?  I mean, there's a combo, but how much of each is unclear. :P

How much of a movie is the moving images on the screen, and how much of it is the reel?

Ok, I didn't know where to put this, but I think the rest of the board hate our guts, because of some things that have happen. Maybe we could just keep the pony stuff on here for now, just sayin. I don't want to be hated by the majority of the members on here. Let's discuss this without opening wounds, and getting in an fight about who said/did what.
