Unpopular opinion time

@Philweasel  
I miss Larson.

@Philweasel  
how much content he managed to fit into that running time  
It really was impressive, and probably the best example of the power of the musical as a format that this show has ever done. It obviously felt rushed and over-dense, but even those who didn’t like it couldn’t say they didn’t know exactly what was happening throughout. It has that same feel that Best Night Ever did, where once the episode’s over it’s a bit flabbergasting that it only took 22 minutes given how much was going on.

@Philweasel  

The songs help a lot. Seriously, I swear there was an interview where he said they went with a lot of songs because it made getting through the amount of story needed for the episode to work a lot easier. Still, he definitely deserves a lot of credit. As much as I would have liked to have seen the version he wanted to do, what we ended up with is still a pretty impressive episode.

How dare you use my raig face >8u

Doesn’t seem like Forgotten Friendship inspired a whole lot a art. Still, I wonder what the next “Raripunk” will be. By that I mean, the next thing that becomes so massively popular that that I’ll eventually get sick to death of seeing it, even if I initially like it.

@Spinny  
It came out like three days ago, man, artists gotta sleep at least once or twice a week.

Wallflower is getting plenty

@Chrys  
don’t you mean planty?

I wouldn’t mind it if mlp got some shorts the way eqg does. I think they would help someone like Starlight. I still wanna see an average non stressful day for her.

@gingerninja666  
same. :U

@Angrybrony
 
Yes

@Spinny  
The next Raripunk will most likely be Winged Spike, and that’s the only Season 8 thing I expect to see in SFM by 2020, to my own dismay.

@Wiimeiser
 
Spinny don’t look at that spoiler unless you know stuff about season 8. That’s a really REALLY big spoiler

@TexasUberAlles
 
IIRC, the original draft was still dramatically different from what we got. I think I heard somewhere that the first draft had the Plundervines concept that would later get used in the season 4 premiere.
 
And Larson seems to keep flip-flopping on whether the final draft of the episode was his work or not.

@Jarkes  
Isn’t Larson known to troll around on Twitter?
 
Maybe he’s just doing that to get rie the fans up?

@gingerninja666  
Does that mean I can’t tell him that Megan Williams appears in the premiere? D:

@Badumsquish  
Is that a real spoiler? I just can’t tell anymore.

I’m 100% on board with Megan/Danny appearing in FiM. Or being some sort of “missing link” between EqG and FiM. I would love that, IF the creative team can pull it off, which I think they can if they tried.

@Josh103
 
I’d still love to see a “My Little Pony Generations” special, but I’m a bit worried that the staff would pull a Turtles Forever and spend most of it mocking the older generations.

@Jarkes
 
Or it could be like Trans-Dimensional Turtles and do a crossover that does both generations justice and respect.

@Josh103  
What about molly?

@Dustcan
 
Yeah, I’d much prefer that.
 
Also, it’d likely only have G4 and G1, since G2 didn’t have a cartoon and Tales and G3 wouldn’t really lend themselves well to an adventure crossover.

@gingerninja666
 
Actually, that particular thing was something I was spoiled on during the wake of the leaks.

Starlight and Sunset aren’t friends.
