Quote from: tailrustedtealeaf on September 25, 2018, 03:24:17 PMFrom what I've heard, the cider to juice change makes sense. While the states uses it to refer to non-alcoholic cider, many countries use cider to refer to strictly alcoholic cider. They don't have the distinction of hard cider that we do, or it is just less commonly used. Someone correct me if I'm wrong!Even so, it's censored all over, not just where it would be an issue. Plus, it's only that episode. I haven't heard any other instances of that occurring.

This reminds me of a video I saw about the Funimation dub of Dragonball Z . . . The original had a lot of death, but in the dub they would just pretend people dead on the ground were still alive by dubbing in heavy breathing sounds or saying they'd gone to another dimension. Those changes at least sort of make sense though . . . but they also made censorship changes to the animation, including some weird choices like when Goku was thinking of apple trees in a thought bubble. Sensing a real anti-apple bias with these censors, lol.Worth watching:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7usGwSYKO0

Plus, it's only that episode. I haven't heard any other instances of that occurring. I have definitely seen an episode of G4 on the tiny pop channel here, a year or two ago, where AJ and her family are preparing the cider and those two guys come in and there's a trade war and the quality of the cider drops. And it is called 'cider' in that episode, no changes. And in the UK, cider is definitely alcoholic. I remember watching it and going...erm...really? Seriously? Especially since I remember Toonami versions of Tenchi Muyo turning sake into 'tea', and that was aimed at an older audience. To me it was a mite disturbing that small kids were watching a bunch of ponies massing, going crazy and starting a riot because they wanted alcohol. It's why I remember the episode so clearly.
I think changing cider to juice for countries that don't have a non alcoholic version of cider makes sense to make it clear that the ponies are not selling alcohol especially in a show that's aimed at children but I do think some of the context might be lost when Granny Smith talks about how important it is to make the cider right away and that they only have a limited amount of time to make the cider when it's harvest time.

DiC did that when they dubbed Sailor Moon. The next to the last episode of the first season is supposed to show the deaths of Mercury, Venus, Jupiter and Mars as they and Sailor Moon are on their way to fight Queen Beryl. DIC combined the episode with the next one and cut all of the scenes out that show the Sailor Senshi deaths and even changed the dialogue to make the audience believe that they'd just been captured instead. Here's a YouTube video comparing the original anime episodes to the DIC dubhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06Whxe1pUmUI know there are fans of Dic's version of Sailor Moon so please overlook the caption that says horrible Englsih dub.

PonyfanThough it doesn't change the fact that episodes like Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000 use the word over and over without any change to the episode. It makes for much inconstancy.
Fly, you f***s!
It would be amazing if they just used the censorship "bleep" sound for every censored thing. "It's time for the Apple Family's annual *bleep* sale! Ponies even get in line early . . . They can't wait for a good *bleep*!"

I use to like the Dic's version, but after watching the Japanese dub I like that. I wasn't stupid to know that the scouts died, heck I watched when Neflight (don't know if I got his name correct) died now that was sad. During season three (which was supposed to be Season Two but the creator wasn't ready yet) you had a load of deaths in that.
Also the image linked is super funny to me. I can hear her in my head ACTUALLY dropping the F bomb. Anywho this is 16 kinds of stupid, it’s like the lady in daycare who told me not to say “stupid!” Normally I’m indifferent to peoples’ preferences but it takes a special sort of person to say that “fools” is akin to cussing.
Geez... I've seen a LOT of stupid edits, but this one is particularly stupid. "Fools", really??Quote from: StarSwirl05 on September 26, 2018, 06:04:16 AMQuote from: Ponyfan on September 26, 2018, 05:31:03 AMI think changing cider to juice for countries that don't have a non alcoholic version of cider makes sense to make it clear that the ponies are not selling alcohol especially in a show that's aimed at children but I do think some of the context might be lost when Granny Smith talks about how important it is to make the cider right away and that they only have a limited amount of time to make the cider when it's harvest time.
