That bit you said after being guillotine'd reminds me of a quote from Robert A. Heinlein. "Don't ever become a pessimist... a pessimist is correct oftener than an optimist, but an optimist has more fun, and neither can stop the march of events."
In response to Lightning Bliss at around 21 minutes and how she felt those things were overdoing it and not worth thinking as scary, I agree that they aren't scary in the way you expect from Halloween but they are in a different way. Things like that are terrifying for someone like myself who has social anxiety and watching that scene I just imagined Fluttershy taking from personal past experiences and my heart really went out to her. Out of sugar? That's terrifying because it's not having something everyone would think was obviously needed. It's scary because it paints a bad picture of yourself as one who is either too stupid to realize they needed said thing or too inconsiderate to care. Having guests that you weren't expecting is having your plans mixed up. I just recently went through something similar to this where I did what i always do, mentally prepare myself before going out of my comfort zone as someone with social anxiety. Having that ripped from under you by having your plans changed is like setting the safety net below your trapeze act on fire. Not only is your original safety measure gone, but now everything is worse because you don't know how to handle the situation. Going through something like this has literally put me through an anxiety attack where my dad and to drive to where I was and pray with me to calm me down. I understand where you're coming from, especially when Fluttershy admitted herself that she wasn't trying her best but I got something else out of that. The way I saw it, Fluttershy was taking full responsibility in that she understood too late that these kinds of scares were not the ones her friends were looking for. According to this episode's continuity, Fluttershy NEVER partakes in Nightmare Night and her only understanding of the holiday is that scaring is what people want. She doesn't do haunted houses or mazes because it's never appealed to her. So when she hears "scare your friends" I think her mind, the mind of someone with Social Anxiety, defaulted to the most terrifying and traumatizing experiences she's had. She defaulted to "you weren't prepared already but now it's even worse cause your plans are changed anyways". When she realized this isn't what the group was looking for, she was disappointed in herself and recognized that she went with the default assumption instead of thinking further. Hence the "I didn't try hard enough"= "I didn't think hard enough". At least, that's what I got out of it.
huh, well thats explains how silver escaped over every single near death experience, he's like deadpool, unkillable, now that's hilarious. am i right folks?
he also pulls a lot of 4th wall jokes too. he really is like deadpool xD neither the hero nor the villain, he just does his own thing and has fun while doing it. but he does has a moral compass, both of them do. so... is silverquill now silverpool or deadquill?
I'm the review this community deserves to need but doesn't need to deserve the power and responsibility that comes with brightest day and blackest night... Or something like that.
"Call me?" Keyframe stole the show, 100%! Silver really nailed it with his analysis of Fluttershy's fear, and the dark side of fandom conflict. Great review everyone!
What a touching episode. Silver thank you for not giving into the drama and clickbaiting and sniping at each other that's really gotten into the fandom as of late. You helped me get through the death of my grandfather during the Rainbow/Tank episode with your really heartfelt video on coping with loss. I'm roughly your age, possibly older and you really helped me through a time when I really couldnt make heads nor tails of things. Not to mention, you stay true to you. And thats why you're awesome
Maybe building the castle will continue into season 6. We are in another break. Hopefully it will be LONGER this time. Silver needs time to caught up, as does everybody else that is not Dr. Wolf.
I found Fluttershy's fears completely understandable, if a little exaggerated for comedic effect. I personally can't handle horror movies or haunted houses and find it hard to understand the enjoyment some people get from being scared. Also, while Halloween doesn't frighten me, Fluttershy's alternative use of time is frankly just as (if not more) appealing to me as celebrating the holiday normally (and remarkably similar to what I ended up doing this year). So good on ya Flutters, for trying something new and then having the courage to admit you don't like it, even if it's popular.
Vutava I hated Halloween as a kid. Bullies would play horrible pranks on me during that time and it kinda ruined the holiday for me for a long time. Horror stuff doesn't even appeal to me now. I don't understand why people get such a thrill out of scaring people. Meanwhile My best friend loves that kind of stuff but he respects how I feel, never forces me to participate in such things and did his best to comfort me when we found ourselves in a similar situation like Fluttershy did. Of course I didn't go overboard paranoid for a laugh from the audience like she did. Either way I loved this episode and could relate very well to how Fluttershy was feeling
That and some of her points are proven right during the corn maze. Tripping over a costume while running from a threat, being unable to see and thus can't defend themselves, stickiness renedering thier ability to get help, and being unable to call for help as a few exits are closed off?!
@@Takisan111 Oh ya mean jerks like rainbow dash in 28 pranks later, where people use the scary atmosphere to get their kicks and it's swept under the rug as "just a joke"?
I would actually like to chime in on Fluttershy's fear in this episode. I think it actually is understandable from a season standpoint. Afraid something might actually attack her, that may be due to a certain Purple Unicorn in this season not being completely dealt with in the first 2 episodes of the season. Said Purple Unicorn could want revenge for the events that transpired especially towards the one who foiled her plan in the first place. Starlight was still a problem and this episode is only a few episodes away from the season finale. (I still see this episode as episode 21 of this season no matter how early it leaked.)
This was a lot of fun to watch. I couldn't agree more with both Silver Quill and Keyframe about this episode (Especially at 22:17; Keyframe, I may have been lying in my bed during your speech, but I was giving you a standing ovation!). I feel like this episode is a shout out for those who suffer from crippling anxiety, and provides a silver lining for those who feel pressured to conform to expectations, and to fit into holes that are simply too square for them. When I first saw it, I was surprised by how much it struck such a personal cord with me and my own struggles with severe anxiety. This is one of my favorite season 5 episodes, my favorite Fluttershy episode, and one of my favorite episodes of the whole series because of that. I'm so glad to see that I wasn't the only one to feel so strongly and favorably about this episode.
18:40 This is actually perfectly plausible. I have anxiety problems and my mind immediately goes to the worst possible scenario, which stops me from doing stuff
ditto. Its why Ive been stuck for the past couple of years. I want to make my foray into youtube but Im to scared of failure to try. Though I honestly thought some of her reasons were plausible, especially the costume restricting her movement one, if Im going to be scared I want the ability to run for it.
Silver quill has helped me so much. He's made me laugh even after I've spent all night crying, he's helped me connect with myself as a person through his supportive talks about the characters, and he was the link that introduced me to the brony fandom. Thank you so much Silver Quill! U've changed my life so much and I'm incredibly grateful. I hope u continue to make awesome reviews. Stay safe, be great.
11:10 sounds like her costume is getting to Keyframe - never have truer words been spoken about the pointlessness of recaps. But as always the audience is not happy being confronted with wisdom and reason -_-
AnY Entertainment 30 secs after that she just gets carried away by zombies and for some reason I just saw you as keyframe not the tall keyframe but you lol idk why😆
This episode we discover Silver-Quil is more like Celestia in his love for others and refusal to stoop to prove a point. This is why I love SIlver-Quil! Your the reason I got into My little Pony. Where-ever you are Whatever your doing thank you from the bottom of my heart for filling my life up with joy. Thank you for your reviews.
Finn the Pony: "But if there's anybody who can help Fluttershy here, it's the remane five." Baron ToldTells: "Remane, wait what?! Remain...MANE!! Dude, is that a text joke? Remain, Mane...as in the the Mane Six, Re, Remane....You FFF...is that textual gag of trying to install in our brains by speaking out loud. You, fifty points from Gryffindor." Best running joke ever. Great job there on a wonderful and amazing review there. :)
Twilight has great respect for the Old Greek Gods. She even invoked the roman name of Zeus when she finally "figured it out" back in "MMMystery on the Friendship Express" [S2E24]. Also, Tartarus is just the deeper level of the Hades.
This was amazingly put together!!! OwO It was a laugh, and extremely creative! Really nice work! Plus - CONTINUITY!!! >w< Love this episode as well. Flutters reminds me a lot of myself, and I can always appreciate her doing her best to take a step forward. No matter how big or how small. ^_^
Even though the output seems smooth and easy, the process is extremely complex. I met Silver at EFNW this year, and we got insight into how he works, and in addition to that I study Media and Communication which means we use Adobe extensively. With those two factheads and experiences, one can truly appreciate the inner workings. Like, the most edited thing I've done was a music vid about 3-4 mins, but the process of making it fit takes far longer. From that, one can come to the realization/conclusion that a 41 minute output must've taken days, not to mention that Silver makes some of the vectors from scratch and the ones he doesn't make, he composes items for which are made up of different things, and making it all fit smoothly also takes it own share of time. #Respect
Marty Laren So what youre saying is I shouldnt try something like this until I actually have skill with it. Good to know. I dont think I would have been dumb enough to try but still, good to know
That's not what I meant, I was simply sharing insight into what it's like. I mean, I was new to it too, but I still managed with determination. Keyframing is the most important thing of course, besides cutting.
You know, Silver's comments on popularity contest that the Rift Cafe has become reminds me of why I subscribe to TH-cam channels: I subscribe because I enjoy their hard work and dedication that was put into each video. I want to come back and see what new and better surprises that they come up with. Silver, you are one awesome and handsome hippogriff!!! You make my life more enjoyable by doing these videos. Thank you....
this was a freaking awesome treat to find in my notifications. do have to say Silver your videos are always a delight and never fail to brighten up a bad day, love your work dude thanks for all the smiles
34:14 You finally put your head on right! Join the club--mine's sideways, I think.Nothing lasts forever, not even TH-cam. I can't promise to watch your videos for eternity--that would be ridiculous--but you haven't lost me yet. Your words continue to touch me, and I can always count on you providing a good laugh. Happy Nightmare Night!
Silver Quill Thank you so much this was well needed this Halloween was turning out to be very depression for me with many issues that are going on in life at the moment but this video made laugh and smile not to mention bringing back a old favorite from you guys this video really brightened my night and all I have to say is Thank you. Thank you to Lightning Bliss, Key Frame, Fin, Thespio, ANY, Dr. Wolf and Antony C for coming back as Tall Tales and you as well. Thank you all for another great Halloween Night.
If it makes you feel any better I still like when you use slapstick. but now, yeah, I kinda expect the smart talks and the feels and such. But I still want comedic slapstick. YOU'RE STILL AWESOME DUDE!!.......
This review has now taught me how to control my fears and have more courage when facing those fears thank you silverquill And your friends I wish you help others and their problems through reviewing this series
When ghoul pony was trying to undermine silver quill, it reminded me of The Spoony One, Noah Antwiler. Once prominent reviewer, who went off the rails and is now pretty much reviled. He even did his own review of the BLAG'OLE!
45 minutes long?! This is epic. I don't have time to watch this all right now but this is going to be some great nightmare fuel later on later on. happy Halloween everyone. great work and all the costumes.
I really liked the length, visual style, view points, gags, among other things. Good job silver; I really liked this Halloween special. Keep doing what your doing and good luck and a good farewell to you till the next review. Thank you Silver Quill and have a nice Halloween.
First off, Silver you really are one of my favorites. I still find it funny with the whole reanimated Tommy Oliver OC. I noticed that the first time he showed up. As for scare master, it really is one of my personal favorites as an episode, because I understand Fluttershy's fear of disappointing others, for I'm constantly worried that I've dissapointed someone, especially lately as being a photography student. That and Flutterbat will always have a place in my heart cause vampires
Always a pleasure working with you, Silver! And everyone else as well! A fun vid to make, a fun vid to watch and just a ton of fun overall! ^w^ Hope everyone enjoyed themselves, and maybe next year, you'll get the Royal Sisters to face palm! Only time will tell! :) *huggles all my costumed comrades*
Aaaaw now this was an episode that put a smile on my face! 34:35 got me good, when I first discovered Silver Quill's videos I was terribly sick and felt horrible! Nose on fire, eyes hurting, difficulty sleeping, body in pain and my throat was hurting so bad it was hard to even drink water or eat. Then one day I came across Silver Quill, and his videos were so entertaining and made me laugh so hard I had to cover my mouth and leave the room to make sure I didn't wake anyone up! After binge watching most of his videos until 4 am (And got back to it immediately when I woke up the next morning XD) I felt so much better! He really helped me through a tough time. And to this day Silver Quill is just so awesome and gives such great words of wisdom and reviews! ^^ Marvelous video and Happy (Late) Halloween to ALL and a goodnight! Muahahahahaha!
This was amazingly put together, great to see Baron Talltales again and I thought the episode was great for Fluttershy trying out something new but in the end she learned that Nightmare Night wasn't her cup of tea and her friends understood that ^^
36:12 This is actually a common mistake, you see according to Ancient European Mythology the Bicorn is supposed to be an Evil Flesh-Eating Monster that is often depict as being Part-Cow & Part-Panther but with a Human-like Face, which is said to be very plump because it mainly feeds on obedient and kind husbands, it also has a counterpart known as the Chichevache, which is often depict as an Evil Flash Eating Human-Faced Cow, said to be very skinny & constantly famished because it mainly feeds on obedient and faithful wives, which back during those times was said to be very scarce, anyways the very reason why the monster is even called a "Bicorn" is because it's Part-Bovine, and all bovines like Cows, Bulls, Yaks, Bison, Buffalo, etc. naturally have 2 Horns on their heads, there for if a Bicorn was ever brought to MLP:FiM, it would most likely be depict as an Evil Monster that's Half-Bovine & Half-Wild-Jungle-Feline that tries to Eat the Ponies, not as a Unicorn with 2 Horns, in fact this monster is the very reason why 2-Horned Unicorns have a bad reputation for often being depict as creatures of Evil. And No, it can't be called a Duo-Corn either, because according to Urban Slang a Duocorn is what they call a Man who dresses up as a Unicorn, because men already have a (muffled cough X2)"Built-in Horn" in their Lower Regions if you catch my drift, thus a 2-Horned Unicorn can't be called a Duocorn neither because it might get confused with something that's *Highly Child Inappropriate*, I mean Neopets has already made that mistake with their 2-Horned Lizard thing by the same name, MLP:FiM does *NOT* need to make that same mistake! There for, the only safe & kid-friendly name for the 2-Horned Unicorn(that can't be mistaken for something else that's evil or inappropriate for children) would be the "Twonicorn"(pronounced as 2-Nicorn), due to the fact that it actually is a Unicorn that has 2 Horns, and it's name still keeps the OOH-Nicorn sound, but replaces the U(You)-, with a Two(2)-, so it's easy for kids to remember, sounds silly enough for parents & other grown-ups to accept, and it's unmistakable for anything other than a Unicorn that has 2 Horns, the point is that if 2-Horned Unicorns were canonically brought into the MLP Franchise, and they are depict as being friendly & acceptable with all others species of Pony out there, the best & most suitable name for this species would be the *Twonicorn*. Thank You for your time.
Impact Monster Well it's kind of difficult to say how when Thespio got that bump on his head that Finn the Pony mistook for an additional unicorn horn, Fin the Pony should have called Thespio a *Twonicorn* instead of a *Bicorn*, without giving a Thorough Explanation as to why that is, and to help avoid almost any neigh-saying wise-crackers in the comment section.
i actually liked the long comment, very informative. i hadn't known about the creature called bicorn, that is very interesting. however it is possible for the same name to be used for several different creatures and have different meanings. for example, the unicorn itself used to be an evil creature that would devour people, far from the friendly, pure, lovers of goodness they're depicted as today. trolls also have several varieties, the danish troll is actually a rather peaceful creature contrary to other versions of it. so calling a dual horned unicorn a bicorn is still an acceptable name, since it doesn't have to automatically mean that it is the same creature you mentioned. like the changelings in MLP that we've seen already, they are not the same as changelings from mythology as we know them, in fact they're more like succubi than anything else (until their recent transformation that it). so i don't see anything wrong with calling a 2-horned unicorn a bicorn, that and it's following the number theme of namin
I often wonder why I do what I do, when there are so many other reviewers out there who do it leagues better. But this serves as an inspiration for me, and for all other up-and-comers in the field. We do this because we like it, not to be liked. And although popularity is nice, it's even better to provide something that people can enjoy. That's what the job is about. And what a great review! I wholeheartedly agree that "Scare Master" is one of Fluttershy's best episodes, and one of my favorites overall. The people who see it as a regression of character fail to see what it was really about: Fluttershy setting her own limits, deciding for herself whether she likes something or not, and saying no to peer pressure, not out of fear, but by choice. You guys are awesome. Thanks for putting this together. :)
Kiju Axel I think it's safe to say that the world of equestria is the same as our modern day world, plus magic and whatever lore they want to throw at us, I mean, if a pony dressed up as one of America's founding fathers in a powdered wig, it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.
Dang it, Silver! Why are you so good? XD Bravo to everyone who helped make this video come together. Getting to see Baron Tall Tales' return was certainly the best Halloween treat I got this year. But I did notice there was a significant lack of, "THRILL ME!" Well... we got one nod anyway. Really is a good episode. One of my favorites in season five. As always many points were brought up that I hadn't thought about. Thanks for that.
Flutter's hypnotic stare and overall mastery over woodlings certainly fit with vampire lore. My headcanon is the spell in the original Flutterbat episode didn't turn her into a batpony, just changed her behavior, and she has always been able to go bat even before that.
+Bianca Grottolo He left the fandom, as far as I'm aware. We should just accept that. I never really watched him or. Digibrony, but we shouldn't forget them. Good to see one of them in any case, if only for a night.
This might not mean anything to you, Silver, but you are seriously my go-to example when telling the Dragon Ball fanbase "see, THIS is what analysis is. Not just giving a summary of what was said and calling it a night, but going deeper into the characters thoughts and focusing much more on what the overall impact of the character was than on what a character said or did that one time". I hope that helps you with whatever fears of disappointment you might be having. I don't do the video thing (yet) but I love to analyze and I write my fair share of essays over on tumblr and Reddit (though mostly in debate settings) and I always think of you when I do it. You're an inspiration and a great example. Thank you.
YES the return of baron tall tales, I love that guy he is such a great character, and this was such a great episode and review, pls do more like these ; )
I lost track of time. I was working on this before Nightmare Nights Dallas. Mathematically, one minute of video is at least one hour of graphic and editing work. I'm tired.
This video perfectly encapsulated why I love your reviews so much. I find it difficult to enjoy the show, mostly because I have difficulty enjoying episodes which I feel are "cringey" and moving past that (Starting with Green Isn't Your Color). But in the end, your reviews always help me relax, unwind and enjoy the episodes, and give me something to smile about along the way. Thanks for all your hard work Silver Quill.
Given the sheer volume of content you all put out, I would love to see a day in the life kind of live stream for each of you. You all put in a lot of work, how do you manage it all? Between watching the show, recording, researching, script writing, and cameos on each other's channels, where do you find the time 4 off topic random Hobbies? Let alone things like relationships or time with the family?
Amazing vid Silver another vid to do just that, make someone's day and laugh at, and have great content; shout out to you and the analysts you collab-ed with. :)
This really hit home Silver. Going into this fandom I wasnt so cryptic. Over the seasons I became cryptic of this and also of myself. Your silly and it makes me laugh all the time but episodes like this that you show hit home. Can really prove that there are things people cant change. Just trying to change small things in people's lives and making them laugh even if it all ends at some point is something, I can learn from. And i know this comment was everywhere cuz I'm tired and out of if I hope you get where I'm going.
Okay so, a) I'm glad I rewatched this video. I needed to hear the message at the end. b) Damn I forgot how much fun A.C had voicing Baron TallTales in this video haha. xD
Honestly this was just an amazing video!! There was a great balance of humour and serious talk, great visuals, quite the large cast of different reviewers, and overall just a great video to watch on Halloween! Thanks so much for all the fun you provide in you videos!!
It's no wonder I love Silver so much. X) I totally relate. Just starting to enter the Brony Review community, I feel so nervous that my limited ability and resources will result in less-than videos and never come close to comparing to the Rift participants. What may not seem like a big deal to some is a HUGE deal to others and should definitely be respected by those around them. Keep on keeping on, SQ. You'll have at least one fan that'll stick around even if you decide to not review MLP anymore. You uplift, you relate, and you encourage those of us who may also struggle with many of your similar challenges.
I have enjoyed this hilarious hybrid for quite a while now, just subscribed and am so happy for it. Keep being as entertaining as possible Silver, even if you are months over due for the reviews. Oh well, they don't call it after the fact for nothing
Oh, goodness, I'm a tad late to this party xD Just wanted to say that I really enjoyed this video! I don't really follow many other reviewers so I can't relate much to the whole conflict bit, but I liked this collaboration c: Definitely made me smile.
Thanks for always being a cool dude Silver Quill, the fandom as a whole has certainly gone interesting places but its people like you that make me want to stick around.
Wow, this must have taken you and all those who helped you a lot of time and effort and may I say that it was worth it. What a wonderful addition to the After the Fact series, a great continuation of Nightmare Night of yesteryear and a poignant message to the fandom. Please continue this wonderful work Silver, for as long as it brings you as much enjoyment as it does us.
That would be quite the accomplishment... I can't really see anyway to make him voluntarily slapping himself in the face with his hooves would work. Now Faceclaw, yeah he's got that coming.
He was "reversed" once by a unicorn spell (making him an earth pony on the front and eagle on the back); then it will be easier to get it doing it. [Or you could just think with portals]
this has got to be your best work yet. It was a great , funny review and it was awesome to see keyframe, bliss and the others helping out, love the costumes by the way. Seeing twotails was expected, but it was worth it:) I don't think you will ever stop being funny and helpful silver quill, keep up the good work, never stop being you:)
....Huh. I wasn't expecting Silver to actually succeed in getting Flutters to face-hoof. Shame on me, how could I have ever doubted him? I was a *fool*. XD Nice vid overall, though it felt too cluttered. Course I suppose that's to be expected, since this was obviously a first-time try on a formula like this. Perhaps, if they ever decided to do something like that again, it might turn out smoother. Also, I didn't like Tall Tales' Evil Monologue towards the end, because speeches like that are boring and irritating. Don't get me wrong, I like a good "The Reason You Suck Speech", but this... wasn't one of them. Heh, but I'd like to see someday somebody interrupts the villain during one of these speeches with, "Dude, you are BORING." Lol, but again, that's just me. X)
Post viewing: ...ooohhh... That's kinda dark with his closing rant. Not the rant itself, but whom Barron Tall-Tales clearly used to be. I'm going to go drink something non-alcoholic, and pretend that I spiked it.
silver I love you this hit me hard I don't know about eney one lets but seeing ,not just silver, but all of you down hit me hard and this is only because of how close and connected this fandom has gotten I feel that this episode was ecpeshaly well done and you really hit the mark on this --love your (hopefully) future analist Pencil Thorn
Man, the part with Silver Quill towards the end really got me. You gave such a good message, and it really touched my heart. I also really liked the rap ups. : )
Because the roller coasters weren't properly maintained or people didn't follow the safety instructions. The goal is still simulated danger, not to cause people real harm.
MLP-Silver-Quill Very true. Although, more often than we realize harm results from a latent function rather than a manifest function. I think someone should explain these differences to Flutters.
I love your videos Silver. Not just because they're funny (though that is a bonus), but also because they help me realize things I just passed over before. Things that are insightful and really make me think about what the subtext really means. You are one of my favorite reviewers, and as long as I'm alive you'll always have at least one fan. Please keep doing what you do.
I will sing at your funeral...
DRWolf001 Ok at LEAST shed a tear or something
Don’t they have wings
Why not “Thriller”?
It seems, even after having his head chopped off...he's immortal.
Save the song, Doc. I don't think he's going down anytime soon...
We're talking about silver quill, Doc. I don't think he's going down anytime soon
That bit you said after being guillotine'd reminds me of a quote from Robert A. Heinlein.
"Don't ever become a pessimist... a pessimist is correct oftener than an optimist, but an optimist has more fun, and neither can stop the march of events."
An excellent quote and one I hope I can integrate into a video.
Silver is like a G rated Deadpool. He's super talkative, full of himself, and can't be killed.
YAAAAAS!!!
Woodsstories
And everyone besides his fans and maybe one of his friends hates him.
Yeah, pretty much.
He has had quit a few run ins with death too...
YYEESSSS
In response to Lightning Bliss at around 21 minutes and how she felt those things were overdoing it and not worth thinking as scary, I agree that they aren't scary in the way you expect from Halloween but they are in a different way.
Things like that are terrifying for someone like myself who has social anxiety and watching that scene I just imagined Fluttershy taking from personal past experiences and my heart really went out to her.
Out of sugar? That's terrifying because it's not having something everyone would think was obviously needed. It's scary because it paints a bad picture of yourself as one who is either too stupid to realize they needed said thing or too inconsiderate to care.
Having guests that you weren't expecting is having your plans mixed up. I just recently went through something similar to this where I did what i always do, mentally prepare myself before going out of my comfort zone as someone with social anxiety. Having that ripped from under you by having your plans changed is like setting the safety net below your trapeze act on fire. Not only is your original safety measure gone, but now everything is worse because you don't know how to handle the situation. Going through something like this has literally put me through an anxiety attack where my dad and to drive to where I was and pray with me to calm me down.
I understand where you're coming from, especially when Fluttershy admitted herself that she wasn't trying her best but I got something else out of that.
The way I saw it, Fluttershy was taking full responsibility in that she understood too late that these kinds of scares were not the ones her friends were looking for. According to this episode's continuity, Fluttershy NEVER partakes in Nightmare Night and her only understanding of the holiday is that scaring is what people want. She doesn't do haunted houses or mazes because it's never appealed to her.
So when she hears "scare your friends" I think her mind, the mind of someone with Social Anxiety, defaulted to the most terrifying and traumatizing experiences she's had. She defaulted to "you weren't prepared already but now it's even worse cause your plans are changed anyways". When she realized this isn't what the group was looking for, she was disappointed in herself and recognized that she went with the default assumption instead of thinking further. Hence the "I didn't try hard enough"= "I didn't think hard enough".
At least, that's what I got out of it.
So if Silver Quill dies, it will of course be very sad.
On the other hand, we'll get to hear Doctor Wolf sing again...
Geez, that's a toss-up.
huh, well thats explains how silver escaped over every single near death experience, he's like deadpool, unkillable, now that's hilarious. am i right folks?
he also pulls a lot of 4th wall jokes too. he really is like deadpool xD neither the hero nor the villain, he just does his own thing and has fun while doing it. but he does has a moral compass, both of them do. so... is silverquill now silverpool or deadquill?
I'm the review this community deserves to need but doesn't need to deserve the power and responsibility that comes with brightest day and blackest night...
Or something like that.
Well done. Thank you for bringing some humour to a 'too serious' community.
"Call me?" Keyframe stole the show, 100%!
Silver really nailed it with his analysis of Fluttershy's fear, and the dark side of fandom conflict. Great review everyone!
"I thought you were just ToonKritic having another identity crisis."
Oh my god LOL!
The fifty points form Gryffindor had me dying!!
Especially when Finn is so obviously a Hufflepuff.
Me? I'm a Slytherin myself.
Baron: The game is over! You all fail, I'm great, you're all losers, GET OUT!!!
Keyframe: Call me?
Baron: NEIGH!!!!
Aw, come on! No one even mentioned best background pony's costume! :( Derpy was dressed as Twilight, and it was hilarious to see. XD
CAPGamer14 really? I never noticed
And cute. Don't forget that!
You said my waifu's name! You summoned me! ^^
"...best pony's costume!"
FIFY.
What a touching episode. Silver thank you for not giving into the drama and clickbaiting and sniping at each other that's really gotten into the fandom as of late. You helped me get through the death of my grandfather during the Rainbow/Tank episode with your really heartfelt video on coping with loss. I'm roughly your age, possibly older and you really helped me through a time when I really couldnt make heads nor tails of things. Not to mention, you stay true to you. And thats why you're awesome
Finally Silver, you got them all. Now go for the bonus round to get the princesses and the family members of the heroes.
Oh my Celestia that needs to happen!
Yyeep! Wish Silver the best of luck.
And he still needs to finish that castle.
Yep, but better slow and good than fast and bad.
Maybe building the castle will continue into season 6. We are in another break. Hopefully it will be LONGER this time. Silver needs time to caught up, as does everybody else that is not Dr. Wolf.
I found Fluttershy's fears completely understandable, if a little exaggerated for comedic effect. I personally can't handle horror movies or haunted houses and find it hard to understand the enjoyment some people get from being scared. Also, while Halloween doesn't frighten me, Fluttershy's alternative use of time is frankly just as (if not more) appealing to me as celebrating the holiday normally (and remarkably similar to what I ended up doing this year). So good on ya Flutters, for trying something new and then having the courage to admit you don't like it, even if it's popular.
I think her fears stem from bullies playing pranks on her as a foal. Nightmare Night is the perfect time to go all out on that sort of thing.
Vutava hell we all have our fears that get us for me... I'm afraid of the dark... Pls don't judge me ;-;
Vutava I hated Halloween as a kid. Bullies would play horrible pranks on me during that time and it kinda ruined the holiday for me for a long time. Horror stuff doesn't even appeal to me now. I don't understand why people get such a thrill out of scaring people. Meanwhile My best friend loves that kind of stuff but he respects how I feel, never forces me to participate in such things and did his best to comfort me when we found ourselves in a similar situation like Fluttershy did. Of course I didn't go overboard paranoid for a laugh from the audience like she did. Either way I loved this episode and could relate very well to how Fluttershy was feeling
That and some of her points are proven right during the corn maze. Tripping over a costume while running from a threat, being unable to see and thus can't defend themselves, stickiness renedering thier ability to get help, and being unable to call for help as a few exits are closed off?!
@@Takisan111
Oh ya mean jerks like rainbow dash in 28 pranks later, where people use the scary atmosphere to get their kicks and it's swept under the rug as "just a joke"?
I would actually like to chime in on Fluttershy's fear in this episode. I think it actually is understandable from a season standpoint. Afraid something might actually attack her, that may be due to a certain Purple Unicorn in this season not being completely dealt with in the first 2 episodes of the season. Said Purple Unicorn could want revenge for the events that transpired especially towards the one who foiled her plan in the first place. Starlight was still a problem and this episode is only a few episodes away from the season finale. (I still see this episode as episode 21 of this season no matter how early it leaked.)
This was a lot of fun to watch. I couldn't agree more with both Silver Quill and Keyframe about this episode (Especially at 22:17; Keyframe, I may have been lying in my bed during your speech, but I was giving you a standing ovation!). I feel like this episode is a shout out for those who suffer from crippling anxiety, and provides a silver lining for those who feel pressured to conform to expectations, and to fit into holes that are simply too square for them. When I first saw it, I was surprised by how much it struck such a personal cord with me and my own struggles with severe anxiety. This is one of my favorite season 5 episodes, my favorite Fluttershy episode, and one of my favorite episodes of the whole series because of that. I'm so glad to see that I wasn't the only one to feel so strongly and favorably about this episode.
18:40 This is actually perfectly plausible. I have anxiety problems and my mind immediately goes to the worst possible scenario, which stops me from doing stuff
Exactly, plus Fluttershy has had YEARS to build up all the horrible things that could happen to her on this night.
And to be fair, they do live in a magical world where those things are a possibility. So, it's not entirely unrealistic.
ditto. Its why Ive been stuck for the past couple of years. I want to make my foray into youtube but Im to scared of failure to try. Though I honestly thought some of her reasons were plausible, especially the costume restricting her movement one, if Im going to be scared I want the ability to run for it.
So glad to see I'm not the only one who wasn't bothered by her characterization in this scene.
+Sophie Johnson
Same here
...I didn't think Fluttershy would face hoof herself, but you've proven me wrong, Silver Quill. Well played. *Face hooves myself as a sign of respect*
(stands up clapping)
Dustykatt Rhoades hello there good sir
But you have hooves
(Stands up clopping)
HashSlinginSlasher94 Ew! No one wants to see you do that in public!
HA 60 Points guts. bravo XD
Silver quill has helped me so much. He's made me laugh even after I've spent all night crying, he's helped me connect with myself as a person through his supportive talks about the characters, and he was the link that introduced me to the brony fandom. Thank you so much Silver Quill! U've changed my life so much and I'm incredibly grateful. I hope u continue to make awesome reviews. Stay safe, be great.
A 40 Minute Silver-Quill Video? *Grabs Large Popcorn Bucket*
Your gonna need more popcorn
Yes, very much so.
Mostly because I just ate it all for you.
You're welcome
Can i have some too? my sister ate it all.
Fox _Girl2004 Same
Popcorn eat mode atavate
11:10 sounds like her costume is getting to Keyframe - never have truer words been spoken about the pointlessness of recaps. But as always the audience is not happy being confronted with wisdom and reason -_-
AnY Entertainment 30 secs after that she just gets carried away by zombies and for some reason I just saw you as keyframe not the tall keyframe but you lol idk why😆
And this is why your the best Silver, love you man :)
Much love to everyone who appeared and worked on this episode to!
26:50 Wow, Keyframe. You may have a cold, dead body, but you can still deliver the most scorching burns! XD
This episode we discover Silver-Quil is more like Celestia in his love for others and refusal to stoop to prove a point.
This is why I love SIlver-Quil! Your the reason I got into My little Pony. Where-ever you are Whatever your doing thank you from the bottom of my heart for filling my life up with joy. Thank you for your reviews.
Finn the Pony: "But if there's anybody who can help Fluttershy here, it's the remane five."
Baron ToldTells: "Remane, wait what?! Remain...MANE!! Dude, is that a text joke? Remain, Mane...as in the the Mane Six, Re, Remane....You FFF...is that textual gag of trying to install in our brains by speaking out loud. You, fifty points from Gryffindor."
Best running joke ever. Great job there on a wonderful and amazing review there. :)
My favorite was the Athena Sparkle it was freaking beautiful
Yeah, that costume was badass.
James W Can go wrong with Greco-Roman armor.
I was gonna say Jem, next to Sailor Moon, but then I was reminded of the ones in the beginning, so my answer is the Changeling. ^_^
+RubberyCat the best thing would be if that was an actual changeling hiding in plain sight and using irony for their costume
Twilight has great respect for the Old Greek Gods.
She even invoked the roman name of Zeus when she finally "figured it out" back in "MMMystery on the Friendship Express" [S2E24].
Also, Tartarus is just the deeper level of the Hades.
This was amazingly put together!!! OwO It was a laugh, and extremely creative! Really nice work! Plus - CONTINUITY!!! >w<
Love this episode as well. Flutters reminds me a lot of myself, and I can always appreciate her doing her best to take a step forward. No matter how big or how small. ^_^
If Fluttershy can do it there is hope for everybody. Its what I keep telling myself.
Even though the output seems smooth and easy, the process is extremely complex. I met Silver at EFNW this year, and we got insight into how he works, and in addition to that I study Media and Communication which means we use Adobe extensively. With those two factheads and experiences, one can truly appreciate the inner workings. Like, the most edited thing I've done was a music vid about 3-4 mins, but the process of making it fit takes far longer. From that, one can come to the realization/conclusion that a 41 minute output must've taken days, not to mention that Silver makes some of the vectors from scratch and the ones he doesn't make, he composes items for which are made up of different things, and making it all fit smoothly also takes it own share of time. #Respect
Marty Laren
So what youre saying is I shouldnt try something like this until I actually have skill with it. Good to know. I dont think I would have been dumb enough to try but still, good to know
That's not what I meant, I was simply sharing insight into what it's like. I mean, I was new to it too, but I still managed with determination. Keyframing is the most important thing of course, besides cutting.
You know, Silver's comments on popularity contest that the Rift Cafe has become reminds me of why I subscribe to TH-cam channels:
I subscribe because I enjoy their hard work and dedication that was put into each video. I want to come back and see what new and better surprises that they come up with.
Silver, you are one awesome and handsome hippogriff!!! You make my life more enjoyable by doing these videos.
Thank you....
this was a freaking awesome treat to find in my notifications. do have to say Silver your videos are always a delight and never fail to brighten up a bad day, love your work dude thanks for all the smiles
It's great seeing these Halloween collabs, especially with the Baron. They always thrill me.
34:14 You finally put your head on right! Join the club--mine's sideways, I think.Nothing lasts forever, not even TH-cam. I can't promise to watch your videos for eternity--that would be ridiculous--but you haven't lost me yet. Your words continue to touch me, and I can always count on you providing a good laugh. Happy Nightmare Night!
Silver Quill Thank you so much this was well needed this Halloween was turning out to be very depression for me with many issues that are going on in life at the moment but this video made laugh and smile not to mention bringing back a old favorite from you guys this video really brightened my night and all I have to say is Thank you. Thank you to Lightning Bliss, Key Frame, Fin, Thespio, ANY, Dr. Wolf and Antony C for coming back as Tall Tales and you as well. Thank you all for another great Halloween Night.
Silver, whenever I'm feeling down your videos can always give me a good laugh! I hope you keep making them for a long time to come.
Beautiful!!! i love this *w* it was so awesome!
Finn was dressed as Fix It Felix Jr. from Wreck It Ralph
Took me too long to realize this.
So, is Barron Tall-Tales the reanimated corpse of Tommy Oliver's OC?
Pretty much. I'm afraid Tommy has no more use for it.
MLP-Silver-Quill sad day
MLP-Silver-Quill can u help me with my oc
Which makes his ending speech that much more poignant.
If it makes you feel any better I still like when you use slapstick. but now, yeah, I kinda expect the smart talks and the feels and such. But I still want comedic slapstick. YOU'RE STILL AWESOME DUDE!!.......
This was an AMAZING episode Silver! No, everyone nicely done! I LOVED Baron Tall Tales, he is such a freaking ride XD
This review has now taught me how to control my fears and have more courage when facing those fears thank you silverquill And your friends I wish you help others and their problems through reviewing this series
When ghoul pony was trying to undermine silver quill, it reminded me of The Spoony One, Noah Antwiler. Once prominent reviewer, who went off the rails and is now pretty much reviled. He even did his own review of the BLAG'OLE!
45 minutes long?! This is epic. I don't have time to watch this all right now but this is going to be some great nightmare fuel later on later on. happy Halloween everyone. great work and all the costumes.
Andrew Gaston no 40
Even as a zombie, Key still has a great voice.
Hey Finn, nice Fix-it-Felix costume, I dare say you looked very cute in it!But if ya wanna get a mare that costume will do it!
I really liked the length, visual style, view points, gags, among other things. Good job silver; I really liked this Halloween special. Keep doing what your doing and good luck and a good farewell to you till the next review. Thank you Silver Quill and have a nice Halloween.
YO BARRON I CAN DIG IT!
Kingofgames2000 So much YAS
Hey, Baron. THRILL MEEEEEE!
Hey! I was gonna say that!
G Lyon
Act faster next time
Jinx!
5:30 Buckbeack-Harry Potter reference
19:15 50 points from Gryffindor-another Harry Potter reference
Somebody obviously likes Harry Potter out of that group.
First off, Silver you really are one of my favorites. I still find it funny with the whole reanimated Tommy Oliver OC. I noticed that the first time he showed up. As for scare master, it really is one of my personal favorites as an episode, because I understand Fluttershy's fear of disappointing others, for I'm constantly worried that I've dissapointed someone, especially lately as being a photography student. That and Flutterbat will always have a place in my heart cause vampires
This is a comment did not she well.
Always a pleasure working with you, Silver! And everyone else as well! A fun vid to make, a fun vid to watch and just a ton of fun overall! ^w^ Hope everyone enjoyed themselves, and maybe next year, you'll get the Royal Sisters to face palm! Only time will tell! :) *huggles all my costumed comrades*
Aaaaw now this was an episode that put a smile on my face!
34:35 got me good, when I first discovered Silver Quill's videos I was terribly sick and felt horrible! Nose on fire, eyes hurting, difficulty sleeping, body in pain and my throat was hurting so bad it was hard to even drink water or eat. Then one day I came across Silver Quill, and his videos were so entertaining and made me laugh so hard I had to cover my mouth and leave the room to make sure I didn't wake anyone up! After binge watching most of his videos until 4 am (And got back to it immediately when I woke up the next morning XD) I felt so much better! He really helped me through a tough time. And to this day Silver Quill is just so awesome and gives such great words of wisdom and reviews! ^^
Marvelous video and Happy (Late) Halloween to ALL and a goodnight! Muahahahahaha!
This was amazingly put together, great to see Baron Talltales again and I thought the episode was great for Fluttershy trying out something new but in the end she learned that Nightmare Night wasn't her cup of tea and her friends understood that ^^
36:12 This is actually a common mistake, you see according to Ancient European Mythology the Bicorn is supposed to be an Evil Flesh-Eating Monster that is often depict as being Part-Cow & Part-Panther but with a Human-like Face, which is said to be very plump because it mainly feeds on obedient and kind husbands, it also has a counterpart known as the Chichevache, which is often depict as an Evil Flash Eating Human-Faced Cow, said to be very skinny & constantly famished because it mainly feeds on obedient and faithful wives, which back during those times was said to be very scarce, anyways the very reason why the monster is even called a "Bicorn" is because it's Part-Bovine, and all bovines like Cows, Bulls, Yaks, Bison, Buffalo, etc. naturally have 2 Horns on their heads, there for if a Bicorn was ever brought to MLP:FiM, it would most likely be depict as an Evil Monster that's Half-Bovine & Half-Wild-Jungle-Feline that tries to Eat the Ponies, not as a Unicorn with 2 Horns, in fact this monster is the very reason why 2-Horned Unicorns have a bad reputation for often being depict as creatures of Evil.
And No, it can't be called a Duo-Corn either, because according to Urban Slang a Duocorn is what they call a Man who dresses up as a Unicorn, because men already have a (muffled cough X2)"Built-in Horn" in their Lower Regions if you catch my drift, thus a 2-Horned Unicorn can't be called a Duocorn neither because it might get confused with something that's *Highly Child Inappropriate*, I mean Neopets has already made that mistake with their 2-Horned Lizard thing by the same name, MLP:FiM does *NOT* need to make that same mistake!
There for, the only safe & kid-friendly name for the 2-Horned Unicorn(that can't be mistaken for something else that's evil or inappropriate for children) would be the "Twonicorn"(pronounced as 2-Nicorn), due to the fact that it actually is a Unicorn that has 2 Horns, and it's name still keeps the OOH-Nicorn sound, but replaces the U(You)-, with a Two(2)-, so it's easy for kids to remember, sounds silly enough for parents & other grown-ups to accept, and it's unmistakable for anything other than a Unicorn that has 2 Horns, the point is that if 2-Horned Unicorns were canonically brought into the MLP Franchise, and they are depict as being friendly & acceptable with all others species of Pony out there, the best & most suitable name for this species would be the *Twonicorn*.
Thank You for your time.
skurvay ...
Impact Monster
What? I'm just layin' down the facts here.
skurvay short version plz
Impact Monster
Well it's kind of difficult to say how when Thespio got that bump on his head that Finn the Pony mistook for an additional unicorn horn, Fin the Pony should have called Thespio a *Twonicorn* instead of a *Bicorn*, without giving a Thorough Explanation as to why that is, and to help avoid almost any neigh-saying wise-crackers in the comment section.
i actually liked the long comment, very informative. i hadn't known about the creature called bicorn, that is very interesting. however it is possible for the same name to be used for several different creatures and have different meanings. for example, the unicorn itself used to be an evil creature that would devour people, far from the friendly, pure, lovers of goodness they're depicted as today. trolls also have several varieties, the danish troll is actually a rather peaceful creature contrary to other versions of it. so calling a dual horned unicorn a bicorn is still an acceptable name, since it doesn't have to automatically mean that it is the same creature you mentioned. like the changelings in MLP that we've seen already, they are not the same as changelings from mythology as we know them, in fact they're more like succubi than anything else (until their recent transformation that it). so i don't see anything wrong with calling a 2-horned unicorn a bicorn, that and it's following the number theme of namin
I often wonder why I do what I do, when there are so many other reviewers out there who do it leagues better. But this serves as an inspiration for me, and for all other up-and-comers in the field. We do this because we like it, not to be liked. And although popularity is nice, it's even better to provide something that people can enjoy. That's what the job is about.
And what a great review! I wholeheartedly agree that "Scare Master" is one of Fluttershy's best episodes, and one of my favorites overall. The people who see it as a regression of character fail to see what it was really about: Fluttershy setting her own limits, deciding for herself whether she likes something or not, and saying no to peer pressure, not out of fear, but by choice.
You guys are awesome. Thanks for putting this together. :)
Here's a question: Rainbow Dash has an astronaut costume. ...does that mean ponies have been to space in a rocket ship? Or maybe even the moon? :o
That's a good question.
If one has played the app game, there is literally a pony called the Astro Pony.
Kiju Axel I think it's safe to say that the world of equestria is the same as our modern day world, plus magic and whatever lore they want to throw at us, I mean, if a pony dressed up as one of America's founding fathers in a powdered wig, it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.
Not necessarily, it could be based off of Space sci-fi movie
Bay Laugh
Perhaps, but they do not have things like... cars, for instance; or television, space-flight, nor even something like, say... a computer.
Thanks silver quill:) alot of the time i get a bit down because of life and work but you always make me smile:)
*sees Thespio as Genie from Aladdin ... cries in corner* WHY?! WHY DID YOU LEAVE US, ROBIN?!
This was so awesome! SO glad you all did this!
When Silver Quill went on stage, I started singing "The Internet Is Here" by Dan & Phil.
Dang it, Silver! Why are you so good? XD
Bravo to everyone who helped make this video come together. Getting to see Baron Tall Tales' return was certainly the best Halloween treat I got this year. But I did notice there was a significant lack of, "THRILL ME!" Well... we got one nod anyway.
Really is a good episode. One of my favorites in season five. As always many points were brought up that I hadn't thought about. Thanks for that.
18:56 onwards.
OOoohhh that reaction Was just... PRICELESS.
50 points.
Im still looping that reaction.
FlairTheDark's Neo Arcadia Gaming awwww Finn to pure 🥰
Flutter's hypnotic stare and overall mastery over woodlings certainly fit with vampire lore.
My headcanon is the spell in the original Flutterbat episode didn't turn her into a batpony, just changed her behavior, and she has always been able to go bat even before that.
So... did Tall-Tales become an adoptable that Anthony C won?
i miss him
+Bianca Grottolo He left the fandom, as far as I'm aware. We should just accept that. I never really watched him or. Digibrony, but we shouldn't forget them. Good to see one of them in any case, if only for a night.
true
This might not mean anything to you, Silver, but you are seriously my go-to example when telling the Dragon Ball fanbase "see, THIS is what analysis is. Not just giving a summary of what was said and calling it a night, but going deeper into the characters thoughts and focusing much more on what the overall impact of the character was than on what a character said or did that one time".
I hope that helps you with whatever fears of disappointment you might be having. I don't do the video thing (yet) but I love to analyze and I write my fair share of essays over on tumblr and Reddit (though mostly in debate settings) and I always think of you when I do it. You're an inspiration and a great example. Thank you.
YES the return of baron tall tales, I love that guy he is such a great character, and this was such a great episode and review, pls do more like these ; )
Still my favourite reviewer Silver! Your content always makes me happy when in pops up in my subscription box.
hey Silver how long did it take to make this episode
I lost track of time. I was working on this before Nightmare Nights Dallas. Mathematically, one minute of video is at least one hour of graphic and editing work.
I'm tired.
MLP-Silver-Quill OMG ONE OF MY HEROS REPLIED TO MY QUESTION. Keep doing what you do. I've been watching you for at least 2 years.
YOU LUCKY POTATO T_T
cool
You poor sole... I hope it was worth it. I for one certainly enjoyed the video, and I know many others did too. :D Please keep up the good work. :)
This video perfectly encapsulated why I love your reviews so much. I find it difficult to enjoy the show, mostly because I have difficulty enjoying episodes which I feel are "cringey" and moving past that (Starting with Green Isn't Your Color). But in the end, your reviews always help me relax, unwind and enjoy the episodes, and give me something to smile about along the way. Thanks for all your hard work Silver Quill.
Given the sheer volume of content you all put out, I would love to see a day in the life kind of live stream for each of you. You all put in a lot of work, how do you manage it all? Between watching the show, recording, researching, script writing, and cameos on each other's channels, where do you find the time 4 off topic random Hobbies? Let alone things like relationships or time with the family?
Amazing vid Silver another vid to do just that, make someone's day and laugh at, and have great content; shout out to you and the analysts you collab-ed with. :)
Let's see...We got Fix-It Felix, AnY, Genie, Some sort of knight, and a large bird
It was a Predator, not a knight.
This really hit home Silver. Going into this fandom I wasnt so cryptic. Over the seasons I became cryptic of this and also of myself. Your silly and it makes me laugh all the time but episodes like this that you show hit home. Can really prove that there are things people cant change. Just trying to change small things in people's lives and making them laugh even if it all ends at some point is something, I can learn from. And i know this comment was everywhere cuz I'm tired and out of if I hope you get where I'm going.
“Turning into a TH-cam comment section isnt going to help” IM DYING
27:37 _"OKAY, THAT'S ENOUGH!!!!!"_ 😳 Wow. Didn't know Finny Finn could get that loud. Kinda hurts the eardrums, honestly.
Silver quill,
from the heart. you are the most intertaining rewiever hands down no comparison,
keep doing what you do best. and happy halloween.
Okay so,
a) I'm glad I rewatched this video. I needed to hear the message at the end.
b) Damn I forgot how much fun A.C had voicing Baron TallTales in this video haha. xD
This episode was written by Natasha Levinger
The same one who wrote It Ain't Easy Being Breezies
She really gets Fluttershy huh
Honestly this was just an amazing video!! There was a great balance of humour and serious talk, great visuals, quite the large cast of different reviewers, and overall just a great video to watch on Halloween!
Thanks so much for all the fun you provide in you videos!!
Keyframe is really hot as AnY.
Nick Kurtz agreed!
+Keyframe Productions you were probaly my favorite person in this Xp
Adorbs either way. Though a bit creepy as a zombie. Love your work. :)
Nick Kurtz
I don't believe Golden thinks that so...
It's no wonder I love Silver so much. X) I totally relate. Just starting to enter the Brony Review community, I feel so nervous that my limited ability and resources will result in less-than videos and never come close to comparing to the Rift participants. What may not seem like a big deal to some is a HUGE deal to others and should definitely be respected by those around them. Keep on keeping on, SQ. You'll have at least one fan that'll stick around even if you decide to not review MLP anymore. You uplift, you relate, and you encourage those of us who may also struggle with many of your similar challenges.
OMG LOL 😂 TURN INTO A TH-cam COMMENT SECTION!!!!
GENIUS!!!
I have enjoyed this hilarious hybrid for quite a while now, just subscribed and am so happy for it. Keep being as entertaining as possible Silver, even if you are months over due for the reviews. Oh well, they don't call it after the fact for nothing
Thank you, Keyframe.
Oh, goodness, I'm a tad late to this party xD
Just wanted to say that I really enjoyed this video! I don't really follow many other reviewers so I can't relate much to the whole conflict bit, but I liked this collaboration c: Definitely made me smile.
anyone else kinda notice that the baron looks like a certain retired brony reviewer's oc?
I think that was what they were going for.
He wasn't retired yet when they made the Baron back in 2014. Heck, Tommys oc is actually named Tall Tales so I think it was intentional.
Seirra Moon he sounds like he needs a god damn cough drop
Anon _ It’s Antony c
Thanks for always being a cool dude Silver Quill, the fandom as a whole has certainly gone interesting places but its people like you that make me want to stick around.
Silver cosplay as Cyberman
Wow, this must have taken you and all those who helped you a lot of time and effort and may I say that it was worth it. What a wonderful addition to the After the Fact series, a great continuation of Nightmare Night of yesteryear and a poignant message to the fandom.
Please continue this wonderful work Silver, for as long as it brings you as much enjoyment as it does us.
Oh, just wait, Silver. Wait till the mane six pay you back... By making YOU facehoof!
That would be quite the accomplishment... I can't really see anyway to make him voluntarily slapping himself in the face with his hooves would work.
Now Faceclaw, yeah he's got that coming.
He was "reversed" once by a unicorn spell (making him an earth pony on the front and eagle on the back); then it will be easier to get it doing it.
[Or you could just think with portals]
Argamis (SilverComet)
Yes it's possible, but the shear complexity needed to get it is far beyond what you get out of it.
Alex Ramirez It would be very hard to get Silver to facehoof, since he'd have to face hoof with one of his back hooves.
this has got to be your best work yet. It was a great , funny review and it was awesome to see keyframe, bliss and the others helping out, love the costumes by the way. Seeing twotails was expected, but it was worth it:) I don't think you will ever stop being funny and helpful silver quill, keep up the good work, never stop being you:)
....Huh. I wasn't expecting Silver to actually succeed in getting Flutters to face-hoof. Shame on me, how could I have ever doubted him? I was a *fool*. XD
Nice vid overall, though it felt too cluttered. Course I suppose that's to be expected, since this was obviously a first-time try on a formula like this. Perhaps, if they ever decided to do something like that again, it might turn out smoother. Also, I didn't like Tall Tales' Evil Monologue towards the end, because speeches like that are boring and irritating. Don't get me wrong, I like a good "The Reason You Suck Speech", but this... wasn't one of them. Heh, but I'd like to see someday somebody interrupts the villain during one of these speeches with, "Dude, you are BORING." Lol, but again, that's just me. X)
"Have you seen that Cardasian show?" Hm I want to make a counter point but I don't think I can.
Is that... Is that an undead Bronycurious/Tommy Oliver quoting Darkwing Duck?!?
Post viewing: ...ooohhh... That's kinda dark with his closing rant. Not the rant itself, but whom Barron Tall-Tales clearly used to be. I'm going to go drink something non-alcoholic, and pretend that I spiked it.
silver I love you
this hit me hard I don't know about eney one lets but seeing ,not just silver, but all of you down hit me hard and this is only because of how close and connected this fandom has gotten I feel that this episode was ecpeshaly well done and you really hit the mark on this
--love your (hopefully) future analist Pencil Thorn
And I honestly loved the episode
Man, the part with Silver Quill towards the end really got me. You gave such a good message, and it really touched my heart. I also really liked the rap ups. : )
12:18 Roller-coasters are actually very dangerous, people have died on them.
Because the roller coasters weren't properly maintained or people didn't follow the safety instructions. The goal is still simulated danger, not to cause people real harm.
MLP-Silver-Quill Very true. Although, more often than we realize harm results from a latent function rather than a manifest function. I think someone should explain these differences to Flutters.
MLP-Silver-Quill
I love your videos Silver. Not just because they're funny (though that is a bonus), but also because they help me realize things I just passed over before. Things that are insightful and really make me think about what the subtext really means. You are one of my favorite reviewers, and as long as I'm alive you'll always have at least one fan. Please keep doing what you do.
Someone tell me why my girlfriend and I enjoy Silver and anything he's apart of?
Thanks for bringing back Talltales. He's a great character. Antony C just makes him work so much.
This is the day after Halloween/nightmare night for me...........
DARN YOU TIMEZONES!
Fluttershy went from anxious, to extremely paranoid, nothing fun about it. It just hurt.
