I was able to watch Friendship Games today. In fact, I was actually quite lucky to find a video of the uncut version that was apparently shown in Canada (the version that was shown here in the US has just over two minutes cut out for the movie to fit a perfect time slot). There's so much to mention that I won't even bother talking about any of the content. Though I will say that I'm already getting ideas for my next fanfiction.

Could you give us a link for that version? I prefer to watch my movies uncut.

There's a cut and uncut version of Friendship Games? What exactly did they have to cut out?

The link was the 480 version on Equestria Daily's stream page, though that link unfortunately has since been removed in favor of a higher quality (but not the Canadian uncut) version. Luckily, the video appears to still be up today, so I decided to watch it a couple more times. I've been unable to find a higher quality version, but that's okay, because all I care about is being able to watch the whole thing.

(Hopefully, I typed that link correctly, because I had to copy it visually from my desktop to my laptop, since I use my desktop for videos and my laptop for regular web browsing.)
EDIT: Good news is that I got it right. Bad news is that it was apparently blocked in just the last few hours.

That was a neat episode! Much needed interaction between Rarity and Rainbow Dash, and a rather positive one at that! The two ponies may be different but are great pals nonetheless. Rares proved herself to be an awesome detective. After all, those who work with fashion have a great eye for details. Oh, and Sassy's back real soon. Dat continuity. And she's doing a great job as a business partner.
I really liked how they handled the film noir elements, even going deliberately monochrome in certain scenes. Needless to say, Wind Rider totally got what he deserved. I'm specially fond of how Soarin' was like. Even if Spitfire's not around, he's a competent authority on his own. And more Wonderbolt members!
Mmm, Rarity is a fan of detective Shadow Spade's novels, huh? Could she be as popular as Daring Do?
Also, those ponified Sherlock, Wadson and Moriarty... sweet. And that jazz version of the end credits was amazing.


Made in Manehattan was adorable. Nice to see Coco returning, And when we thought she couldn't get any cuter, we get glimpses of her filly life! Hnnnghh...
So, Twilight is bored of her skull with reading huh? Don't worry Twi, pretty sure you'll get a mission soon. And it's great to see all the Manehattan ponies coming to see the Midsummer Festival an having a good time while getting along. The moral was handled decently. Oh, and that Peanuts reference sure was a neat touch. Rarity and AJ are always amusing when together and they certainly did not disappoint. I shall post my thoughts on the movie later on.

I decided to do a little searching on Dailymotion (because videos there tend to stay up longer), and it looks like someone just recently managed to upload the Canadian uncut version (though quality is still at 480). At this time, only the first half of the movie is up, so you might want to wait a bit for the second half to appear as well.

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x37zahv_m...rt-1_shortfilms

For those of you wondering what was cut out in the US TV version, there's a scene of Twilight and Principal Cinch just after Twilight meets Sunset and the others, and the credits have a song and pictures (some of them quite funny) supposedly taken throughout the events of the movie. I'm sure these scenes will be included in the DVD being released in two weeks, so until then, it looks like the best you'll get is the video I just found.

^^Thank you, Chronicler! I was about to give up and search for one myself. As I was going to do so, this little thing on EQD distracted me. Here are the summaries for the rest of Season 5.

Now, if you don't mind, I'll be hooking up my laptop to my TV so I can watch the movie the way I want to. :) (If you're wondering, my laptop has an HDMI connector. So, it can actually do that. :D )

Okay, so part 1 ended on a good note and it looks like the one whom originally uploaded it might not get part 2 up until tomorrow. I'll be able to watch it and give my thoughts on it fully then.

Until then, may as well do something else.

See ya later! :wave

Question: what are the differences between the cut and uncut versions of Friendship Games? What kind of stuff was taken out?

^^One of the things I have found is that the uncut version doesn't skimp out on the credits and reveals a spoiler of the last episode of Season 5.

I have finally gotten around to finishing the movie. (Sorry, "Animal Crossing - Happy Home Designer" is quite addicting.) However, I don't have time right now to give my thoughts on it. I will say the following though.

There's a certain principal you're going to be hating after this and she's meant to be hated.

For now, I have to head for work.

See ya later! :wave

Sunday! Sunday will be the day I give my thoughts on Friendship Games. Until then though, we have a new episode tomorrow and as I always do, here are the marathons leading up to the episode.

*sighs* Looks like I'll be missing out on the Disney version of Robin Hood. Oh well! :(

See ya all tomorrow for the episode. :wave

REVIEW POST!

Okay, this one was... intriguing. Ugh! This is one that makes me feel uneasy. I really felt bad for Big Mac, but I feel he was going about it all the wrong way. At least we get a good ending with this one.

To be honest, I can't see this as a great episode. Decent, but not great. It at least gave Big Mac the character development the big guy sorely needed. Which I think is a good thing.

No spoiler version today. I really don't want to go into detail with this one.

Okay, fine! I'll give one spoiler! Highlight to read it!

Crossdressing is done as a joke. It doesn't feel like one here.

Okay, I'm really done now. See ya all for the Online Post. :wave

(spoilers)
To be completely honest, this was one of my least favorite episodes of all, and I'd rather not go into any details. To me, the only part that made this episode even worth watching was near the ending when Big Mac confesses his thoughts and feelings to Apple Bloom, such as how Applejack is the hero of the family while he's just down at the farm every day.
(end spoilers)

I'd like to mention that of the three Equestria Girls movies, Friendship Games has definitely become my favorite. I've actually watched it almost every day for the past week. Even though I think it makes a great way to end a trilogy, I certainly wouldn't mind if we see a new one next year.

Well, you're in luck! A 4th Equestria Girls movie has been confirmed.

Probably won't appear until the end of Season 6, but we'll see. :)
