I agree! I think the last time we saw them was the first part of Princess Twilight Sparkle, right?

In "Sweetie Belle Toils" too.

(I had to look for the episode on dailymotion to check. Jesus Christ all these shitty "my OCDNS reviews/reacts to the episode" videos on youtube. :vomitpony:)

Speaking of Sweetie Belle, she herself wore glasses much like her sister's in Friends Forever #2.

Once again I can't get on EqD, even though I was on it just 14 hours earlier. :-/ I don't know what's going on.

Eh, they could have some downtime or something. These things happen with websites. :pinkieshrug:

It could be any number of issues, though the fact that you're getting here suggests that it's more likely to be on their end than yours.


I pretty much never visit EqD, anyway. I find that I get most of my pony news here.

I'm pretty much in the same boat as Fizzbuzz. I haven't been on that website since last summer and everything I know about the show, I get from here.

John De Lancie is on this week's Nerdist podcast.

They start talking about MLP at around 51:50.

And apparently Doug Benson is a huge MLP fan. Image

Don't know if it would generate enough discussion for it's own thread but someone pointed out to me that today marks the 30th anniversary of Rescue at Midnight Castle and thus the start of the franchise's animation.

The Hub has had no better promo with Pinkie than the summer promo from 2011.

Lunar eclipses are caused by Earth's shadow. Remember, what blocks the sunlight during a solar eclipse?

http://www.lpl.arizona.edu/css/eclipse/ (or other such sites that'll start livestreaming here in a bit) will be about as close as you'll be able to get- this one's only visible in the Americas.

Alternately: Go watch Luna Eclipsed again. :speakest:

Blanco, the horse who portrayed Gandalf the White's noble steed Shadowfax in Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy, has died at the age 25.

It means Celestia was on a cake binge one evening and Luna wanted to spite her sister for forgetting her duty.

Now I want to see one of the after effect of these "cake binges" in the show itself. It sounds hilarious.

Yeah...we've seen it once before within the context of the show but a little more of the laid back side of Celestia would be nice.

Lunar cycles aren't actually all that important beyond being a primitive way to mark the passing of time. Equestria has long since invented the calendar.

I suppose AJ and her family would know about lunar eclipses, etc. I was just joshin' her.

Eisner Nominees are out....Pony got jipped again. :unenthused:
http://comicsalliance.com/2014-eisner-awards-nominees/

Serously, the fact that they didn't at least have Heather Nominated for her coloring on the book is a crime IMO!

But then again not a lot of IDW content nominated in general.... :(

*meh, not that it matters I guess, all award shows are rigged anyway :p*
