Still waiting on the 1080p one.

I second that. I think she is just    using her powers to help the Scootaloos of Equestria, ponies whose nightmares are actually being detrimental to their daily lives. I mean, she was Nightmare Moon, after all, it makes sense that she should have some minor power over dreams. In this episode, at least, she seems to be channeling Uncle Ben a bit.

1080p is up.

Interesting news, this episode has a new writer, Corey Powell. I really like what she did with her first episode

From now on, No one is alowed to talk about the a new episode until a link is provided to watch said episode.

Is this fine with everypony?

I know I usually give some strange random thoughts on the episode, but this one is so awesome I'm just going to have a fan freak out.

   Granny Smith at the beginning = Like a Boss!. It's Scootaloo, she's so awesome! It's Rainbow Dash, she's so awesome! It's Luna! Holy shit she's awesome and she's gonna save everyone! Seriously, yay for Luna. Now all those fanfics of Scoot and Dash being sisters has cannon on their side! The Olden Pony is old! Really old! SO that's what the headless horse looks like! Scoot is so cute when she's scared! This episode is cool! Rarity just doesn't give a buck. Sweetie Bele has become Sweatie Bele. Sweetie Bele gilt trip Ho! Luna is cool, I know I said that already, but I don't care she's that cool. We get to see a softer side of Dash. Scootaloo can jump really high, in the words of Max Payne, "Fear gives men wings." but wait, she's a girl... and a pony... and she already has wings. Rainbow Dash to the rescue. Dash and Scoot Daww moments. And that ending was adorable!

   I really liked this episode <:-)

Not the least because of the canon "Scootalove" we get at the end. Seriously, seeing Dash hold her up airborne like that has been the thing of fanfiction for a long time coming.

And of course, worldbuilding! Princess Luna! She's the opposite of Freddy Kruger!

I like that it looks like she can casually stroll through ponies' dreams and help the little ones of the world. The first shot of her we see in the beginning helps the episode, since she doesn't just show up and single Scootaloo out. Almost certainly she just happened to casually notice her plight.

What a wonderful little device for fanfiction! Now it's possible for sleeping characters to get in touch with her, and again like a reverse Freddy, if things are up, they might TRY to fall asleep so they can talk to her, maybe deliver a critical message.

Sad thing for ME is, it makes a big part of my own fanfiction screwed, given ponies get taken captive in it for lengths of time.   

Also, speaking of fanfiction:

http://www.fimfiction.net/story/20545/M ... n-Equation

If you are a fan of pony and the Mass Effect series... PLEASE read this!

It really is the best crossover fiction I've ever read, and somehow manages to seamlessly connect the two continuities. This story is done in 17 glorious chapters I couldn't put down for two days, and the writer is already going to hammer out a sequel fic that goes into Mass Effect 3 territory. This fic isn't getting nearly enough love. I implore you, check this out!

I'll give it a read, its nice you're trying to help something you like get a bit more attention I try to do the same thing around here to. Although its usually for art and videos.

I really liked this episode. When I saw    Luna in the first dream, I was both baffled and slightly in shock. But then it dawned on me that it made sense she could have that power. Still, was not expecting her at all. It's an interesting and fun power. I see a LOT of things the fandom can do with this, like counter-trolling Celestia, or even just regular trolling the civilians just for the hell of it.   

Also... I'm kind of surprised no one brought it up yet...    THEY WERE ALL SITTING LIKE LYRA! COME ON!!! NO ONE SAW THAT?! IT WAS AMAZING!

   Yeah I had noticed.   

Now THIS was a better episode. I can only complain about one thing. What in gods name was wrong with Scootaloo's neck!? still good episode.

   Sooooo Luna watches ponies dreams. Luna knows when your sleeping. Luna will see you in your nightmares!!!

Sitting in a human manner has become a common thing now. Fillies sit like that in Cheerilee's class, Cherry Berry also have a human pose in One Bad Apple. Of course, they are still nothing comparing to Lyra's slouching pose, but they are not so rare anymore.

What should be noticed is Derpy appears less and less in S3, and in the rare scenes that she did appear, they are either side view or don't show her face. Chances are they are pulling her out for good. Quite a shame if that is to happen, but it was fun while it lasts. Plus, we have the official comic to take care of that. I just got the first issue, Derpy's love for muffin was featured explicitly.

I believe its called squash and stretch animation and its used to give the characters more reaction and movement, its exaggerated, but that's the point. Also it looks kind of cute when used with ponies.

You know what no I actually do have a complaint about this episode that I can boil down in to two words: misleading. title. The title of this episode is called "Sleepless in Ponyville" about 90% of this episode didn't take place in Ponyville. I guess "Sleepless in the Everfree forest" didn't sound write :shrug:

I don't think that they were in the Everfree Forest. Keyword: think.


Anywho! I can cross off    entering dreams    on my list of awesome classic fictional ideas that I could use in my story without them seeming overdone in our fandom! Not yay! *teeth clench* But that's life!

This episode was a'ight. 3/5 though I biased because I very much prefer the adventurous or mythology filled ones.    The Rainbow Falls almost interested me, my first thought was oh! they must be under Cloudsdale but lord knows that its something entirely different because these writers don't seem to care for such tiny connections which is understandable. OF COURSE. But there's only so much unrelated magical anamolies you can pile up until you have a natural forming balefire bomb. This makes me happy. I want to watch from a distance as they burn! BURN! BURN for their sins!!   

So there's that.

Rainbow Dash further proved herself deserving of my least favorite mane 6 title.    Far too caring of her public image.

Well, you are the only one. From what I've seen so far, that last episode has put an end to a lot of Rainbow Dash hate.    What "too caring of her public image"? No one wants to reveal the fact that they are or were afraid of something.

Let me say this, Scootaloo was Rainbow Dash's number one fan, and she was not afraid of losing her image in front of the one pony who admires her the most, then would it really be fair to say that she cares too much of her public image?   

I was gonna make a reply to what True Order said about RD, but Grieffon put it better than I could. Well done Grieff.

I'd advise putting those words in spoiler censors, Monsieur Grieff. You know the system:


Anywho...... that's actually it. I thought about defending my opinion but then I remembered that it's my opinion. The whole world may arise in a full man hunt for me, torture to me death, and display my body as a warning to others but it will still be my opinion. Why you felt a need to correct me as if I were stating fact or point out that I am seemingly alone in this opinion is unknown.

How bout some pics? LINKS to pics?
