The great animation, the impressive voice impersonation; it was all wasted. Could there have been a more predictable, more boring, more expected, more played-out, more unexciting way to characterize the Vinyl Scratch/Octavia pairing?

It's such a cute concept; it begs for countless twists and surprises; and instead the best we could do was hack out the most generic, obvious personalities from the two ponies that one could imagine from what we know of them. Scratch is the 'quirky, loud' one, Octavia's the 'serious' one... *hides face from embarrassment from lack of creativity*.

All the other, little scenes and stories don't help much.

So Discord comes back. Okay, any twist? Any weird distraction? Anything creative?

A date goes bad. Okay... joke? Comedy? Got any sort of humor of any kind?

Only good part was the way Vinyl Scratch acted at the end about the sandwich. See, THAT is the kind of goofball creativity that was rich in Epic Cupcake/Pie Time; just have more of that and we'll be good!

I'd like to be able to say "do it right next time and no harm will be done", but I'm not sure; as much time and effort that I see went into this one, I fear it will rest on the permanent record of everyone involved--mostly the animators--as a humiliating waste of time.

Well I can assure you that the result, at least for where we are now, is not the most important thing for us, so even if everyone didn't like it, it wouldn't have been a waste of time. Even though it was very well received by most, and we knew that not everyone would like it for what ever reason, what we learnt from feedback and just the process of making it certainly wasn't a waste of time.

This is, far and away, the best stylistic fan-adaption--upon any medium or platform--of FiM that I have yet seen. It's just crappy enough to be funny, just different enough to be special, but still professional enough to be good.

And let's not pretend that it made any brony sad and at least close to crying; we all know that with as attached as we are with those characters, how easy it is for the shortest and simplest of fan creations to punch you in the gut.

Wow that sure was shitty.

General rule of thumb; if you're going to do anything that involves a female character and an intimate relationship, you've really got to find a female to do the voice because it's creepy otherwise.

Also, did you really have to add yet another contribution to the 'dates, marriage, children, then old age' montage pile? Do you have any idea what hasn't been done fifteen quadrillion times already?

You bet your ass it's played out

Jesus, the lack of caring is so intense it embarrasses me.

"I was working to make cartoons that were designed more for a general audience, so to people who play video games a lot, this joke may seem a little 'played out.'"
Oh. Okay, that explains it.

N'awesome

GOD. Weebl is SO GOOD AT CULTURAL SATIRE. I so very much want to review his stuff, but there's nothing to say!! It reminds me of what good entertainment is!

Christmas

This has long been one of my favorite episodes of yours. A classic.

Hilarity

Ahhhhh ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Perfect. This joke has been in the works since day one. Genius.

Best Jerry episode since "Closet", even if it is just a prank.

Awesome

Egoraptor is an undying flame. He hasn't lost an ounce of the wit and charm that filled Metal Gear Awesome with such wonder and glee four years ago.

Definitely no point

This flash was pretty bad, it doesn't really have any point to it, but it COULD if it was expanded upon. For one thing, making the video as long as the song would be great, because having the song cut off so soon is really annoying, actually.

Another thing is to have more stuff going on. If you're going to have tiny little dots floating around, at least have more of them. I'm not kidding either; it would at least give the eyes more stuff to look at.

Super sucky

Well that completely sucked! Given the amazing time constraint, that's no surprise, so be sure to remember Madness Day earlier next time!

CONSTRUCTIVE TIME!!!
Have the characters move more. Every few frames, they should twitch or move slightly, it makes them seem more natural, and it's what the official Madness movies do.
Don't have such bland text for the lesson. It makes people not want to read it as much.
Have less-random metal music.

Apparently the more rational minded people reviewed this first. I appreciate the fact that you actually reviewed this, instead of just saying "lol this suxx!!".

However, I know the faults. This is not even closely made through my best efforts. Like in the description, very last minute. I did it in less that an hour the night before.
