The soldiers under firebrand’s command are so bad at their job, The next person to do a Colab with him could just walk into the base holding a sign that reads “ i’m supposed to be here.” and it would work.
i just wanna point out something about this episode; Fluttershy has an issue carrying the bag. That initially seems just humorous, and it might be, but i really like the thought that this is a subtle way of the writers _showing_ the earth pony that Twilight got as an Alicorn. After all, an Alicorn is *_all three_* races.
This means that Twilight can also help Maud accelerate the formation of plutonic and metamorphic rocks. (We know from the dragons' diet that gems have to be renewable)
Being from the actual area where the Hatfield and McCoy feud happened, this episodes holds a special place in my heart. Also like the way he says "HUUFFIELDS!"
And when the episode first aired, I still thought the feud was family history. Nnnnnnnope. Turns out Great-Great-Grandpa Jonathan wasn't on the level about his backstory.
This episode didn't stick around in the fandom's mind for some reason. Maybe nothing was ridiculous or cute enough to reach meme status. Maybe it was the lack of fan favorite characters and locations. Maybe most of us just can't relate to feuding families the way we can to stories of social anxiety or bullying. But this was a solid episode! Fluttershy got a story that wasn't about learning assertiveness, and actually brings her Dolittle/Thornberry powers back to the forefront. The show seems to forget about those with every season premiere or finale, no matter how useful it might be otherwise! Also, before this episode, did we ever get a story shared by Twilight and Fluttershy? New character combinations and chemistry are always welcomed. Then there's all the artistic detail. Every member of these families seems to have a distinct model and facial features, and the architecture for each of their compounds is totally distinct from anywhere else in the show.
It's because the plot of the story has been over-used. Romeo and Juliet. Avatar: The Last Airbender. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. SpongeBob Squarepants. For (Yay) Sake! Even Disney a few (Yay)ing times!!!
At the time the episode aired, I still thought the Hatfield-McCoy feud was family history. Nnnnnnnnope! Turns out that Great-Great-Grandpa Jonathan was not on the level about his (likely unreconstructable at this late date) backstory.
In this episode i noted that twilight didn't have trouble carrying her bags the way fluttershy did, and while i know fluttershy isn't the strongest pony, and the possibility that she was carrying the bulk of the weight for there travel supplies (i dought this as twilight would be to good a friend to allow that i believe), this may be a showing of twilight gaining her alicorn earth pony strength
"SOMEONE NOTICED!" I said the exact same thing when I saw that the McColts at the door noticed Twilight was an Alicorn. Seriously. She can't hail a cab in Manehattan for being royalty but some backwoods hicks can plainly see she is... seriously what was season 4 for Alicorn Twilight if not only for the premiere and finale???
Oh snap! I didn't realize this was out. Sadly this was the last thing I recorded before my old mic died. Props to the audio editor for doing the best they could with the garbage I gave them. And the visuals look great too! Especially love the reference at the end! Thanks for having me aboard, Josh! I might be coming over more frequently to check in on my armada. :P
Now Lancelot, Galahad, and I wait until nightfall and then leap out of the rabbit taking the French by surprise, and not only by surprise but totally unarmed!
First of, Firebrand you look good. Secondly, nice job with the review. It was good to watch and had some good moments in it. I really like when Sweetie Bloom was talking about Star Wars and the Jedi. (Huge Star Wars fan myself)
hehehe, the song in the background is "rocky top" aka the song of "rocky top Tennessee" and is played by many bluegrass artists, my favorites are roy clark and buck owens
Also I don't think Flurry is a princess, she has never been called that and titles aren't nessecarily automatic, expecially in Equestria where you can be made a princess.
@@boldblues that Is somehow true dogs have been known to bark at nothing but some think its cause they can sense a change since dogs can learn to sense emotions they could effectively know how to sense a change in some way that is not noticeable to us

Random musical number put in, but Sweetie still has a great singing voice. Great review as well you two, I'm kinda on the inbetween with this episode myself :)
Aramau! OC in the reviews finally! The internet saw your face on Twitter and then the Bloopers vid recently. Glad to see that you are emerging from your shell of fear. Edit: lol, loved that ending reference to Questria.
That statement about politics you made in this review is indeed something that needed to be said and I'm glad you said it you guys. Congratulations, you two, you get a cookie!
3:52 Come now, Josh. "The Hooffields and the McColts" is in season 5. We never saw Flurry Heart until 6. "The One Where Pinkie Pie Knows" only told us that Cadence was pregnant with Flurry, and Flurry was only born some time prior to "The Crystalling." No need to get your horn in a knot like that.
They did say in the first season that the Everfree forest wasn't natural because, "the plants grow, animals care for themselves, and the clouds move all on their own."
TheatreLover not only that but there was the more recent episode where fluttershy builds an animal sanctuary (that was completely unnecessary) just cause the animals wouldn't leave the vets office. Very obviously spoiled in that case.
When Sweetie says the line about ponies spoiling the animals and the only animals that defend themselves are in the Everfree, I immediately thought of Bridle Gossip and that "Animals care for themselves" line from Fluttershy. Suddenly, that makes so much sense now!
Hey Josh! Just wanna say huge fan of your content! Your humor is on point and your references are legendary. Just wanna say, that. Because hey, the comment section doesn't need to be nothing but, memes, nitpicking, and straight cancer.
This episode reminds me a lot of an old Disney cartoon from one of their “package films” from the 40s (Make Mine Music to be exact. Think Fantasia but taken much less seriously), The Martins and the Coys. In fact, the location of the Hooffield and McColt properties (Two large hills seperated by a river) is eerily similar to the one seen in the short.
Kid Danger: *happy horse noise* sorry. veggetales is one of my childhood shows. i watch recorded episodes of it on my tv sometimes. finally one of you ponys says it.
5:10 This portion of the episode made me fucking scream internally. And the bit where Firebrand starts mispronouncing the food names as a mockery gave me life.
4:03 They took that from Mad World's Lil' Eddie boss fight intro, more specifically the announcers. The only difference being that Lil' Eddie's gigantic while Big Daddy Mccolt is tiny. A great reference.
The soldiers under firebrand’s command are so bad at their job, The next person to do a Colab with him could just walk into the base holding a sign that reads “ i’m supposed to be here.” and it would work.
How about a t shirt that says “I’m Firebrand”

Actually, one did.
He showed an ID with Firebrand's picture on it.

Let's face it; the base is so carelessly defended, two kids and a dog (or a self aware supercomputer) could infiltrate it.

Much appreciated!

Ah, I was wondering what happened with the audio.
can you go further into what you where saying about the jedi please?

Also am I the only one LOVIN Firebrands new art style in this episode?! He looks
FABULOUS!!!!
He really need stayed like this.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I can’t remember the last time your intro made me laugh. Sweetie Bloom sure knows how to make my day.
The opening with Sweetie Bloom made my morning even better with her singing 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
She looks so adorable.
1:07 I just LOVE how Aramau looked so happy at Sweetie's singing while Firebrand's face says "this is my life."

I agree too he looks great!!!

I wish he stayed this way.

Never change Sweetie, never change.
Fun fact: the fued in this episode is actually based on a historical event.

Kyle Towers
Nope, I’m Canadian
Yep. I actually thought it was obvious by the name being a parody.
I find this one of the funniest episodes of the series, only behind The Last Roundup and Rock Solid Friendship.
Doctor Eggnog I liked all the humor in the episode where twilight tried to study pinkie sense.
The bit with all the stuff falling on her got a laugh from me.
My favorite part
I'd find Sweetie Bloom's singing quote Beautiful
Firebrands new look is awesome!!! good review of an underrated episode. good well-told moral that more and more people should take to heart.
The veggie tales episode is exactly what I thought when I saw this episode too
I hope your new look isn't permanent. Nice that you are doing these videos so often these days!
Also I don't think Flurry is a princess, she has never been called that and titles aren't nessecarily automatic, expecially in Equestria where you can be made a princess.
The use of words expressing something other than their literal intention! Now that! is! Irony!

Same!

Huh, didn't know Sweetie was a JoJo fan too. I approve. 😊
Or chaos control.
Depends on who you ask.
Sweetie Bloom's face when you said you didn't care about the mice.... that was priceless.
The moment Firebrand said Disney princess my cat jumps next me and greets me a chirp, any thoughts?
They’re psychic. Take it from me, whenever something super natural happens it’s always the animals that know...
If your cat is chirping, you may secretly have a young griffon on your hands.

2:56 THIS is why I was looking forward to your review on this episode.
Also, what kind of curling iron did that makeup pony USE?!
Gonna have to agree with Sweetie Bloom on the animals, they are basically pets to the ponies not independent creatures like they should be
They did say in the first season that the Everfree forest wasn't natural because, "the plants grow, animals care for themselves, and the clouds move all on their own."
+Just Call me J Well Equestria is a land of magic with it's own 'natural order'

I think Firebrand is taking Sweetie Bloom's singing way too seriously...
Yep.
But We Warned Her.

what was she about to sing at the end!
Called that MadWorld reference from a mile away as soon as you said “Why is he called Big...”
I like the new design
6:35 Yeah. Technically that was his *GUARDS*
This episode reminds me a lot of an old Disney cartoon from one of their “package films” from the 40s (Make Mine Music to be exact. Think Fantasia but taken much less seriously), The Martins and the Coys. In fact, the location of the Hooffield and McColt properties (Two large hills seperated by a river) is eerily similar to the one seen in the short.
I think this episode, and probably that short, was inspired by an actual event. Don't know anything more then that though.
They are both based on the same real life feud.
Both are based off the same event. If you listen, I had Josh put in the music from the segment at the very beginning of the video.
