Blind Reaction: MLP FIM Season 2 Episode 16 "Read it and Weep"

The guy next to her must have been even more bored than Rainbow since he couldn't even move, so I like to think he was enjoying the story too.

When rainbow said "I'm un egg head" I was like well ya that the exact thing I said except replace egg head with brony.

9:28 the way Twilight and Fluttershy come in saying hi is just adorable.

This is how Daring Do was born.

"I broke my collarbone 3 different times"
Its weird to me that I'm watching this with a broken collarbone.

This episode holds such a special place in my heart. It was my first episode I ever watched ❤️

Rainbow is me when I don't admit to my friends I like MLP.

The first thing I see is him wearing a crap ton of sunglasses and I was just like "What the f-"

This is a pretty good episode. The moral is a little on the nose. The Indiana Jones parody is pretty cool. Also seeing Rainbow Dash try and steal is fun enough.

The thing with books, if the cover catches your eye, there is a very little chance you'll be able to pass it up lol 😅

Now that we think about it. Rainbow Dash is reading the book and imaging herself as Darling Do, that's why she is a recolor.
Until they reveal how Daring Do look like. Story doesn't have a precise description so, it's up to reader.

0:25 Ha-ha.
0:51 This video starts like Jackie Chan's movies end. I missed that part where it's horrible.
1:34 when did she became one?
2:31 Yo, Rainbow Dash! You alright?
3:13 OUCH, dude!
3:56 You mean, Daring Do herself or musical cue? Eh, it is in both.
4:18 I mean, this IS something "cool kids" would think and this IS good lesson to learn. And out of everyone in MLP Dash was best choice to be center of it, as being both ultimate coolness concentrate no matter what and closest to be Stereotypical Jock for this universe (at this point anyway). Which means, it works pretty good In-universe.
4:35 Chemistry textbooks. What? Too far? Okay.
4:51 She's literally recolor, even lines in mane. Nice one, Twilight. Nice one.
4:57 Cue: wingboner.
5:21 WHY THE LONG FACE?
5:24 Rainbow is BEST stroboscope. DING!
5:32 She's bored and desperate. Give her a slack.
6:09 For audience sake, mostly. BUT it also helps focus on what reading, which is especially relevant for those who isn't an avid reader. Ever caught yourself mouthing or saying out loud lines you blanked on few times in a row to kick your concentration? Yeah, that thing.
6:12 Or the opposite, considering his deprivation of... pretty much any activity. That's at least something.
6:32 Makes me wonder if that would played out the same way if book didn't paralleled RD's statement right now. We're ignoring Doylism and the fact that Twilight definitely knew what she was doing picking that specific book for the sake of that equation.
6:50 All in the opening statement. 'If only she could escape this oppressive atmosphere and fly up into the cool blue sky. But her crash landing in the jungle had injured her wing and she was grounded for a few days." Remember that part when I mentioned parallels between those two? Yeah, that part.
6:53 Sans Iris, yes.
14:13 Right into my theory about Twilight knowing what she was doing. It's not the first book in the series, WHICH MEANS...
14:52 Cliche being Cliche.
16:16 Yeah, Twilight said she have them all. WHY DISGUISE THOUGH? ACCEPT THE TRUTH: BOOKS ARE AWESOME! BECOME ONE WITH THE READING *Turning off sectarian voice*
16:19 Interestingly enough, that's actually an appropriate reaction. RD have no cognition of common tropes in storytelling and stuff due to her prior reluctance for reading, so those are more genuine questions than just "We do that for the sake of the show".
16:33 Apologizing, anyone? What? That's an important lesson too!
18:47 Nah, just a little bit of "The one who put lab coat first".
19:01 Yep, clearly.
20:46 Ponies are freaking forgivable in this show.
20:49 She didn't said "If you're not athletic you can't be smart", Spike. Chill.

7:42-7:59 I hate to admit it to myself and I really hate to admit to my friends but I love the show I Love My Little Pony friendship is Magic I'm a Brony

Just be glad it was a Daring Do book, and not The Neverending Story, because they could've easily thrown a reference to that in this episode.

The pony that barks her name is screwloose

20:50 - Yeah. I mean, Twilight mind controlled the entire town, and she got off pretty much scott free.

You had a very....shady intro

4:51 technically since daring do IS real Rainbow Dash could.... you know 😏

that hoofing pony always get me

I also love to read. I’m an egghead

I’m surprised she knows how to read if she hated reading that much

Good question

What would Pinkie read?

Daaaamn I've never broken anything (knock on wood) but I can't imagine not doing karate cause I broke something. Ugh I'd have active withdrawal it's not even funny

I like to read sometimes but reading the entite day is bad for you.

1:45 - And Pinkie Pie's quoting Alpha-5.

0:00 Now thats 25% cool

18:56 Isn't that the book with the cure for Poison Joke?

Hey everybody you know if someone on the team is a huge Indiana Jones fan if they made a episode a One huge reference

Reminds me slurm Factor (from Futurama)
Witch is a reference to aliens slurm is the queen's royal jelly even she said so

The weird thing is that Daring Do looks and act like Rainbow Dash

This episode really reminds me of the "what are you reading for" Skit by Bill hicks.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwkdGr9JYmE
