yes master
 
An awesome video about Magical Mystery Cure:


And an equally as awesome video about season 3 and being sure of your opinions:

 
I actually did see the fanboying one hehe. And I loved hearing his thoughts considering most if not all his thoughts were similar to mine on the episode. I'm going to get into rewatching the episode tonight after I've downloaded it on a thumb drive. Because god damn, I loved that episode.

I also can't wait until the extended version of Twilight's sad song "I've Got to Find a Way" is released. That was a short song in the actual episode, but I loved it the most out of all the songs in the Finale. May even beat This Day Aria for my favorite song of the series.

Celestia's Ballad and Morning In Ponyville is great too.

I think all the songs were good in their own right.

It's just that I've Got to Find a Way and Celestia's Ballad get extra points for the emotion it shows.

I've already praised the former, but the entire scene of Celestia's Ballad is just so touching especially if you found yourself invested in Twilight's episodes and everything she's done throughout the last 3 seasons. Celestia's Ballad can also be more tearjerking if you listen to it from the perspective of a parent before their son or daughter move away
 
Apologies for double posting, but we already have Season 4 info thanks to a recent Con panel. I'll just list some of the highlights.

*Magical Mystery Cure was written originally in November 2011 while Season 2 was going on. That includes Alicorn Twilight and the plan for it to be a Musical episode. Even if it was mandated, it surely wasn't a last minute thing.
*The Season 4 Opener will focus on Twilight's fears and questions about being a Princess.
*Reason why there wasn't a Rarity episode last Season: She was originally going to be the pony that Spike had a life debt to in Spike at your Service, but they thought Rarity got too mean to Spike in the initial version.
*Possibility of seeing Trixie yet again.

Double posting? TO THE MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!

Despite seeing it all over my twitter feed last night I forgot about that Las Vegas con, gotta check out all the interviews when it comes up.
 
I saw the season finale (I'm slow to this) and, no offense, but it sucked. Seriously, after this episode, I wouldn't be surprised if they changed the name to MLP:Twilight and Friends, because that's what this whole episode was. It put Twilight on a pedestal above all the other ponies even though the point of the blasted show, aside from friendship is magic stuff, is that nobody is superior, at least for the main 6. I've already shown my distaste with Twilight being the "one and only hero who can save the day" (see my rant on the S3E1) and this just says "fuck the other ponies, twilight is the best". This episode was so contrived and it was a jumbled mess, really. The pacing was atrocious, really. People thought that the pacing in Keep Calm and Flutter On was bad? They have to see this.

Don't even get me started on the music...

The only way you could fully enjoy this episode is if your favorite pony is Twilight, and well, it should be obvious that she's not my favorite. Sorry, but this episode came off as bad fanfiction, honestly. I'm going to agree with what Gummy said and brush this off as another ploy for Hasbro to make money selling toys. I wouldn't say this is the worst episode of the season, that's a tie between Too Many Pinkie Pies and One Bad Apple.

It was honestly too packed, which killed any tension or drama, and had far too many songs (I liked maybe 2 of them, honestly). Twilight's "destiny" came suddenly, had no foreshadowing, and if anything goes against what the series was supposed to be in the first place (you can be a girl without being a pretty princess!) The episode was clearly directly commissioned by Hasbro to sell toys. Not to mention that it's basically a giant middle finger to everyone whose favorite character isn't Twilight. Season 3 was doing a good job at making it about six main characters, and then one of them gets pegged above the rest? Given that my favorite character is a [pegasus], I couldn't help but resent that.

I think this would have worked great as a series finale, maybe at the end of say Season 5 or Season 6 or something. There's a good chance it was originally meant as such. But for Twilight to be an alicorn among earth ponies, pegasi, and a unicorn for however long the show continues to go on just seems a little strange and, dare I say, a little unfair to the 5/6 of us who like some other mane cast member most.

I'm pretty much agreeing with these statements.

Another Twilight-centric episode as the season opener? Yaaaaaaaaaaawn.
