Well I thoroughly enjoyed this episode. There were more jokes that made me laugh out loud, such as Spike's messing up which shows come from which channels. (Something funny to note, what you described is exactly how most cable companies operate. Some customers haven't a clue why they have certain channels and yet are not charged for them, so it's best not to say anything. That's what I would do, lol.)
I especially enjoyed the whole prank call backstory for Trixie, even if it was just a tad mean spirited toward the end, but I'm slowly getting used to that from these characters. The paintings you had to go with the prank call story were beautiful and very expressive. My compliments to your artist. (I gah'd at baby Spike and filly Twilight. They are so cute when they're being malicious.)
Speaking of beautiful, I always thought your theme song was very pretty and thought provoking. It has a feeling of grandeur and hope, which really contrasts with the majority of what the series consists of. Your credit theme, however, matches more of the grim subject matter and somewhat violent action that the series contains, while still having a classical charm to it. I took a glimpse at your soundtrack video and read that the end theme was originally going to be your theme song and listening to it, it makes perfect sense. I really do hope you go through with making a full version. Though both songs are equally great, I slightly prefer the theme song more. I know it is based on the song Today by the Smashing Pumpkins, but I still like your version a lot. I only wish it was longer. Any plans on extending that one too?
+o- greentea -o Yes omg! Sorry your names not in the credits! We commissioned you for the Ursa pic was done so long ago that we forgot who did it :( We'll add your page to the description!
Well done Kanterlot! I like how you guys incorporated Twilight's particularly non-violent handling of the Ursa into the show. I was trying to figure out why she didn't just put a spike in it's brain. She seems like that kind of girl.
It's interesting to see the Elements slowly bringing Twilight into the fold. I rather enjoyed the ending card with the aftermath.
I love how it was established in the beginning that Twilight pirates GoT (with a note that may indicate TheKanterlot does so too) and then Snips and Snails quote GoT- genius!
+TheKanterlot Huh… So funny thing, APPARENTLY I wasn't subscribed. I probably hit unsubscribe by accident as I'm usually on my phone. But if that is not the case and I somehow have been here without subscribing to begin with then I can tell you MORE than earned a subscriber out of me!
+TheKanterlot you guys still make new videos for this series, right? Not just specials, which are fine by the way, right? Also, you people are hilarious.
+David Weintraub It's a mystery. They cited footage but only a specific part so who knows? Odds are Hasbro will just monetize the video this time instead of blocking it, but if they do block it we'll host it somewhere else and put up a redirect video on our YouTube.
+TheKanterlot Whatever happened, it's back and more is sure to come whether they get blocked or not. Just a matter of figuring out (more specifically) "why?". First upload cursed? Other companies deem something in the original that doesn't get picked up later? Etc.
During the flashback Twilight hadn't known Celestia very long and is used to referring to her as 'the princess'. After a couple months of Celestia insisting that Twilight can simply call her 'Celestia', 'the Celestia' is what filly Twi came up with. Fast forward a month or two, Twi'll probably have it down the just 'Celestia'
@TheKanterlot MolimInous2 has the deleted scenes on their channel there are a few fun ones. One of them is Trixie running off like in the end of this episode but she get's hit in the head with a wash tub and falls down. And in another one spike has a sniper rifle and shoots a pony.
+Ryan Mumford (Minecraftwithrsonic) Well we still think that our series is good, just not good as an 'abridged' series. And most people that check out out first episode expecting a nice short abridged mlp, we assume. That might be why we don't have more subs
+Hyper Pony4010 We've going to see if this one stays up, and if not we have a plan. All that matters to us is that the fans will be able to view it one way or another.
+TheKanterlot A devious plan...? It's good to hear that you guys have this planned out in case of Hasbro copyrighting your videos, and it's also nice to hear you guys care about your fans.
Not sure. Sometimes Hasbro just takes our shit down and when we reupload it they settle for monetizing it. Other times they monetize it as soon as we post it and leave us be.
The difference being Trixie's "stupid" is just the exaggerated version people use as an insult as she is not actually mentally deficient in any way, just a gullible multi-millionaire adult who could have easily done something to remedy her situation had she made any effort to do so. And Snips and Snails are well-meaning but poorly-supervised, mentally-handicapped children.
As far as the picture we were short on funds so settled on 1 Daddy Ursa instead of multiple, and then we did a poor job explaning that he was supposed to look like a Ursa Major in steriods lol
