Title: Rest of FiM S7 leaked. Beware of spoilers
Post by: lonewolf on October 07, 2017, 08:31:58 PM

As if the movie getting leaked early wasn't enough, somehow the last 4 episodes of S7 are out and about now (glad Hasbro isn't in charge of keeping this country's secrets).
 I decided to do the dirty and watched them.  And oh man. The finale is going to do something (that is going to ruffle some feathers on the that side of the fandom. EDIT: It already is    :lol: ):

Spoiler

Something that ties the 3 branches of FiM together.

So watch out as you're browsing the net for pony if you're avoiding watching them early.

Oh, hmmm. I can't find them.  I just usually watch on YouTube but they don't seem to be there yet.  If anybody knows we're to find them I'd appreciate the help.

Welp, looks like i am going to go watch the season finale. Those are the episodes I generally like the best. xD

Thanks, lonewolf.  I'll just have to wait then.  Me and Dailymotion just don't get along.  All I ever get with that site is 3 seconds of show followed by two minutes of buffering. :(

There is one scene in part 2 of the finale that is... too... interesting not to share as a screenshot (don't drink anything while looking at it. It may come out your nose):

-stygians motivations were weak

-starswirl was a great example of "never meet your heroes"
-Eh.......... am i looking forward to season 8 after this finale? hm....well.......

I've got Dailymotion on my PS4 so you all know what I'm going to be doing today. *wiggles eyebrows*

I'm supposed to defeat Killer Croc in Batman Arkham (first game) but last time I fought him scared the poop out of me (he bursts out of the water in the sewer).

As for my ratings:

Spoiler

Secrets and Pies: 8/10. Pinkie was on the verge of snapping in that one. XD

Uncommon Bond: 7/10. Poor Glimmy (filly Glimmy is still adorable).
 The way they ran into Trixie was hilarious. And once again she was acting cute.

And then there's Maud:

Shadow Play: 9/10. 9 because it was rushed a bit. Otherwise it was awesome.

I hope whatever happens in season 8 will involve the movie characters.
I'm watching it rn. I wonder what happened this time. Who stole the movie and leaked it? It's crisp HD quality.
I don't care for Hasbro's money but wouldn't fans want to support this movie instead of watching it ilegally?

Same here - it would be a waste not to use them again.

I bet it was an theater employee who has access to the "movie projector" and ripped the file beforehand. (Since usually theaters will run through the entire movie once to make sure it plays properly before putting it on the screen for customers to see it).
From what I've seen, some people's reason for illegally watching it instead of seeing it the theater is (exlcuding if they live where the move wont be out for a month or more) "I'm too scared to go see it by myself in the theater".  It's a legit concern, since I've read online a guy actualy had some parents hardcore stare at him when they saw him in the theater.

Finally was able to watch it.  Well, that was interesting.   i liked it ok.  I'm trying to put my finger on why I wasn't totally in love with it.

Spoiler

Maybe it was the lack of music.  Not a single song to cap everything off?  Come on!  But I guess the musical talent was tied up with the movie so I'll just have to put the movie sound track on repeat.

I was really shocked to see all of the legendery heroes come back.  I had no idea this was the master plan.  So good on them for pulling off something unexpected.

I also agree with the person who said that Tegian? was not a very prettily designed character with weak motivations.  But then, his motivations are actually no different than Nightmare Moon's soooo.......

Star swirl was hard to watch.  he came across as very unlikable.  It was hard to see what Celestia and Luna saw in him that they seem to like him so much.  But maybe we will see more character development from him later.   

Final thoughts....  I'm not necessarily gung-ho about seeing any of these characters again necessarily except that some of them would make lovely brushables.  And I really, really, reeeeaaaaally want a Sunburst brushable!

Oh, and one last thought.  I have noticed that they have been getting better at designing the various background and side characters this season (Tegian? Not with standing).  With more varied and brighter color combos and unique hairstyles.

I liked it, except for the fact that it felt like a normal episode.

Spoiler

I was surprised at the lack of music, not even one song! It made the episode feel so short along with the fact that there was no drama. Stigeon (no idea how to spell that XD) was poorly designed, I felt. He didn't voice that he was feeling disrespected and powerless. And it was weird they didn't wait for Stigeon to explain why he wanted to duplicate the relics.

Anyway, I felt the "darkness" was a little plot devicey. They didn't explain it at all, like how it came to be, how Stigeon found it, etc, and just used it for a way for him to gain power. I hope they explain it someday. I did however love the pillars, especially Mistmane and Rockruff! They just stood out to me for some reason.

The names were so weird! If I heard them correctly, the were Ponish and Ponehenge. What the heck are those name?

All in all, I liked it. It was just weird though, and didn't feel like a finale.

I don't get why this is causing so much salt :pout:

Spoiler

The show staff from the very beginning stated the sirens were cannon  :silly:
When I heard there was drama over the season 7 finale I thought it was going to be over the fact that Star Swirl and the other legends created the tree of harmony; not whether the sirens actually existed or not. :P

They have already confirmed that the movie characters will be in a future season.

I would be shocked if season 8 was the last, Hasbro is making too much money from FiM to quit anytime soon.

@ LittleKirara, where was this confirmed? I don't want to get my hopes up.

I saw the finale and well... I didn't really care much about it.

Spoiler

All the Legends being alive again must actually be horrible for them now that all their loved ones are dead and the princesses were just like "lol we are thousands of years old", haha...

. But the episode with the zeppelin as well as the one with Starlight and Sunburst were really nice!

There's some fans who absolutely refuse to accept it as being canon to the show despite that, and a couple of previous hints (the same ones who don't accept what's happened in the show after season 2). They're still trying to deny it, but there's another thing to confirm it...
 

Spoiler

As you might know, the show bible has been leaked also, including the script for this episode. An image floating around shows it flat out says for the scene "SIRENS (est. MLPEG2)".
The other thing that ties into it is Legends of Magic comic #7:

Overall this season had some good episodes in it, though I declare "The Perfect Pear" as the top episode of season 7.

ONWARD TO SEASON 8!

At the Hascon Season 7-8 Panel and the Movie panel. The staff confirmed that many elements from the movie will appear in the future on the show. They even showed a new seapony named Silver Stream, that I bet will show up in season 8

Also Big Jim (he is the TV shows Supervising Director) just posted on twitter and confirmed the movie is cannon and takes place between season 7 and season 8.

So while we don't know if all the characters and locations from the movie will be on the show we do know that at least some will.

Well, at least 

Spoiler

two of them have descendants to go home to. So that's something, right?  But yeah, sucks to be them.  On the other hand, they could have just stayed in oblivion for several more millennia.  So I guess life is better than might-as-well-be-death?  They did choose to make the sacrifice and did make Equestria safe for their loved ones for a thousand years.  I guess the saddest part is that the whole thing could have been avoided without sacrificing themselves? 

As for the zeppelin episode, I really loved it.  Reminds me of

Spoiler

lots of family vacations I've been on.  Not that anyone in my family is a celebrity, but just all of the family interactions.  Love the parents personalities.  Twilight Velvet being kind of an adrinalin junkie was really unexpected.  And when the dad(can't remember his name) was going on about loving numbers, etc, and I was like a www, that's were Twilight gets that.

siren scene either. It just shows them battling a monster, which could be any monster... Even if you don't except EG or just the sirens to be cannon, it's not like it affected anything in that episode. When I heard there was drama, I predicted it was because Starlight turned into an alicorn or something XD

Because "adult fans" can be the whiniest babies in this fandom and act like MLP is like Game of Thrones where there is a book series (in this case their fanfictions) that gets adapted.

I hope Flurry Heart becomes the mightiest alicorn just to mess with them.
