I still don't understand the controversy around when this episode can out. People calling Bic Mac trans or thinking he's trans. Its like people forgot what crossdressing is.
Arella17 how? Its a form of gender expression. Drag queens and drag kings aren't transphobic, it's just something they like to do. It's a performance art. And from my experience, the trans community is fine with the drag community, as long as they're not claiming that cross dressing is the same as being transgender.
You know what, the cut between AB blowing up and then saying “You know I’m not mad” makes sense to me, as a older brother with one of my younger having a... personality, which sometimes blows up, but I know him to not mean it in the long run, it could make allot of sense if we think of it as AB blowing up in the moment, realizing her words afterwards, and going to make sure Big Mac didn’t take it to harsh when hearing he is sitting alone under a tree at sunset
What if AJ is actually the oldest, then Mac is suffering from 'Middle Child' sydrome, a sydrome where your are pretty much invisible and the most distant with both siblings. I know, I suffer through.
@@WhiteDarkness3113 i just came back to binge again and forgot this was pre ari and felt odd til i remembered this was before she was ever even mentioned on the channel
Firebrand : Wait, that was you? I thought you were some kind of hobo. Anyway, you got here pretty fast. Trickyfox : HECK YEAH! And I was first here, too. You should see the line. Firebrand jumps up in surprise. Firebrand : The......line? Line of bronies cheering with glee and happiness. Markiplier (as a dragon ) : Let's go say hi to Senpai! Firebrand : I immediately regret this decision. Me : BOODOOP! ROFL! I wouldn't mind a line of people who want to collaborate with me.
Of all of the things I was NOT expecting to see in my sub box today, THIS is up there. Hopefully it won't take forever for the next one to come out, since CotLM is EASILY the best episode of the series.
The only issue I have with CotLM is the way the fans reacted to Spoiled Rich yelling at her daughter. They automatically slapped a bullying label on that, but that's not what was really happening. It's an example of poor parenting as a result of the parents own inflated ego. Spoiled Rich is what I like to call a "Toxic Socialite". She's a woman who has married into wealth (or was raised in it) and it's gone to her head to the point that she looks down on anyone she views as "lesser" in any way, shape, or form. Unfortunately, Toxic Socialites tend to be poor parents as they either are super critical of everything their children say and do, as seen in Spoiled Rich, or they put their child on a pedestal and genuinely believe that their child is the most special perfect snowflake ever and can do no wrong (see Petunia Dursley). Both scenarios result in screwed up children who lash out at others and become bullies in some way, because they are modeling their parents poor behavior. This sort of thing can only be fixed by reality giving both parent and child a hard slap to the face, which is exactly what happened in CotLM! Diamond Tiara hit her lowest point after her worst loss ever, was shown genuine compassion from people she had been horrible to in her time of need, and when the chips were down she decided to turn her life around. She stood up for the Crusaders and told her Mom off in the same breath, and used her talent of leadership to help others rather than hurt them. It was awesome, and I hate seeing people cheapen it by not understanding the context.
Dreamer Rose problem with that is she was shown as being a horrible person when she was just Filthy's FIANCÉE and should have been proof that she was the wrong person for Filthy since he goes completely against the stereotypical evil businessman trope
Ar Lew, Unless the marriage was an arranged one that neither of them could get out of. Or she or one of her relatives found a way to blackmail him into it. We don't know why he married her. Plus, from what few clues we have, he's a pretty negligent father to Diamond Tiara unless she does something blatantly wrong.
I find it interesting that Tricky Fox identifies with Big Mac as the isolated sibling and Josh identifies with Applejack as the hero sibling. Meanwhile I'm more on Apple Bloom's level (oh my, it's almost as if I chose my name for a reason). I'm closer to my eldest sister than I am the middle sister. Sometimes the middle sister would get jealous of our relationship. I still love both of them (some days more than others) and even I get jealous of their relationship too since they're much closer in age to each other. It's pretty common in sibling relationships and the episode addressed it well. As mentioned in the video, the show usually aces sibling relationship episodes. Hence why I chose my OC name as the names of the younger sisters. Great review you guys! Also NOTICE ME, SENPAI!!
At the moment, out of every released episode of this show, Brotherhooves Social is my favorite episode from the entire series. Maybe a bit strange because I don't consider myself to have any shaky relationships with my siblings. But I still felt for Big Mac and understood his motivation. Sure, seeing him in the dress for the first time was shocking, but it's not hard for me to believe he'd want to do something like that for his little sister that he feels is starting to lose touch with. There's not a single thing in this episode I can find that I can complain or nit-pick on (even with the one thing you guys mentioned about Big Mac not being able to jump. Remember, Big Mac is a rather large pony, and he was wearing "high heels". I can't imagine jumping in place being easy for him to do in that moment). It was touching to see Big Mac feel the way he does at the beginning of the episode, adorable to see Apple Bloom bonding with Applejack, they connected the parallel plot between Made in Manehattan and this episode really well. And the meat of the episode where Big Mac is at the social itself was just hilarious and sweet at the same time throughout it all (obviously bonus points goes towards the disguise not fooling anypony). And the ending of this episode is hands down my favorite moment in the entire series. Or favorite moment in any cartoon, show, or movie... really. For one, William Anderson nailed the score that plays in the background in that ending scene. In my opinion, its one of his best works. The imagery with the sun setting down is absolutely gorgeous to look at. And the conversation and bonding moment between Big Mac and Apple Bloom has me losing it every fucking time I watch this part. The only thing that comes to mind that doesn't make sense is that at the end of Made in Manehattan, the sun was set by the end of that episode, but in this episode, Applejack apparently made it back to the Apple Orchard before the sun has set. That's literally the only thing I can think of that kind of bothers me, but even then Manehatten is supposedly an eastern town, so maybe the train back somehow outran the sunset when it was on the way back to Ponyville? Idk. Still love this episode. I don't know what the writers of this show can do to top this episode for me. Glad to see you're back at it Josh. You were on of the first content creators for MLP I started to watch when I entered this fandom a little over a half a year ago. Keep it up!
your talking about a trigger happy,dry crusader brony with the tact and wit of doug walker with the slasher smile and snark of kefka and albert wesker combine who's also a former marine that uses the infamous flutter yay to censor cusses it wouldnt surprise me that he made flutterbomb just for the giggles
I know one person Josh has not done one with. That being GoldenFox and GoldenFox has said he is not comfortable doing it since something about that he feels unworthy to work with Josh or around on the lines of that even though it seems Josh was open to the idea. the problem is GoldenFox doesn't feel comfortable with it and until he feels good to do so, he won't. And its funny since Fox had done some with DRWolf and with Silver Quill who along with Josh are the big boys in the community while GoldenFox was one of the first Brony reviewers.
Sweet, good to have you back commander firebrand. And with Tricky Fox no less. That FlutterBomb joke killed me every time XD. Now I want to see you do that at a con or something. Also that collab line... Are fast passes available?
I just wanted to tell you that your one of my favorite reviewers. You give so much emotion into the depth of this show and its characters. It makes me see them in a new way and understand how complex they are. You really are able to bring to light a lot of what makes this show good. I also love how you dont just dismis the morals as being for kids. You apply them to your own life and find hidden complexities to them that everyone can relate to. You allow us to see the emotional value of this show and the universal themes it presents. Your awesome.
love how you added "Always there" from Lady and the Tramo 2. It really added to the feelings as you both discussed family relationships. Firebrand, glad you are still doing reviews.
Dylan Hooper A mistake, my friend. But in all seriousness, it seems to be Discord, Chrysalis, Sombra, Nightmare Moon and idk combined. I’d say Cozy Glow but this was posted way before Season 8.
I would have loved the concept of that “weird judge” actually knowing that Orchard Blossom was Big Mac, and just kinda crushing on him anyway. Either way, even though it wasn’t really needed, it gave me a little giggle at the end. The only thing really weird (or creepy) is just the age difference, and the fact that from a face-to-face perspective the character looks like Beast Boy in the weird Teen Titans reboot.
This episode always hits me in the feels every time. My brother was in the Air Force. He got chaptered out after an issue with alcohol. I haven't gotten to see him in forever. I really miss him. This episode makes me miss him.
Your back!? YEEEEESSS!!!!!!! And hey, now you'd passed Silver Quill at least. But yeah great to see you coming back and hope you can catch up, your stuff is still as amazing and hilarious as always. And yes, the fact everypony knew it was really big Mac, and nopony gave a buck was just so perfect.
Hi there! I just wanted to say thank you. Your videos are hilarious, and honestly I was relieved that you were so behind. During the last season of MLP, for a while we weren't able to watch the latest episodes, so coming to UA-cam, particularly being suggested any MLP content ran the constant risk of spoilers, which I personally HATE. So finding your channel, finding your videos covering older seasons, it was a great relief and pure joy. So as frustrating as it seems to have been for you, thank you. I can't wait to see what you do more of in the future! Hope you and Ari have a wonderful day!!
This is one of my favorite episode. As a big brother I have always believed that my roll as the oldest it was to protect, help, cheer and inspire my youngest siblings. Ever since my little brother was born I made a promise to become the roll model of my brother, sister and cusins; but they had others to look up to. It didn't matter what I do they have been showing little interest in sharing time with me. I hided does emotions for long periods of time but I reach a point where I can help it anymore and collapse in sadness and depression just because I felt like a failure of a big brother; and I really hate to fail to my family, so I just give up. Now in the last two years that I was going to leave my parents house I decided to give it another try. It turned out better than I expected.
I was kind of miffed that the judges saw through the disguise the whole time, but let Mac keep stringing himself along, since the disguise was clearly hampering him during the contest.
This ep personally hit me hard. I'm the oldest of 5 brothers, but number 2 was always the one who got all the attention and respect from the rest of my little brothers. And was more successful then me.
i believe she already explained how she felt about this episode in a glass of water a long time ago. you know...SHORTLY AFTER THE EPISODE WAS OUT!!!. so to quote Jim cornette, thank you...f(yay)k you...bye
Man, not only was this video heartwarming and insightful, it was so freaking hilarious. I laughed hard at least THREE TIMES throughout this presentation. It was fun to watch. 😎
Hey, just wondering: I noticed Closed Captions during the beginning, but none for the rest of the collab. If someone wanted to contribute Closed Captions, how would one go about it?
On the number of festivals they hold: That list isn't so unusual. We (in the US, at least) have at least 10 holidays per year, and that's just the big ones. For a farming community like Ponyville, these would be major social events, and I note that they way they're depicted, most of them cost more effort than money. And it kinda seems like most ponies don't work more than 4-6 hours a day. I chalk that up largely to magical climate control and the like, as it seems like AJ takes in four or five harvests per year.
12:35 Keep in mind that it would have been an hour or two later. It's a time skip. She would have a chance to cool down, or maybe Granny talked to her as well.
Not gonna lie, I can really relate to this episode as well. I have a little sister and even though we never used to get along, we do now. However, we do have our hiccups, as I feel jealous of my sister's ability to be more social, having a wonderful singing voice and make friends easily along with getting more attention in my eyes, whilst she says she's jealous of me because I have planned out things, constantly improve on my art skills and work so hard, along with supposedly me having more of the attention. Not only that, but my sister has actually said that I have inspired her, saying that I really inspired her to go back to college and not only that, the same college as me and almost all of the same courses I'm taking. It really makes me feel appreciated, not to mention I make sure to tell her that she inspires me with how many amazing ideas she tells me about, knowing that I love to write. So yeah, I can really relate to these feelings. Well, I got a bit sappy there ^^" Oh well, needed to express this. Here's something to lighten the mood though - *FLUTTERBOMB!*
Yaaaayyy! I was just wondering the other day what happened to my favorite bronies' channels lately, and my first favorite brony is finally back! Great review of the episode, and great jokes. Please keep going!
I love how doctor wolf is in the crowd and he's already collared with him like a million times, as have most of at mini crowd XD
XD WAS THAT MARKIPLIER SAYING "Lets go say hi to senpai"

Yes when he was playing yandere simulator
Lol
I still don't understand the controversy around when this episode can out. People calling Bic Mac trans or thinking he's trans.
Its like people forgot what crossdressing is.
Matthew Hilliker I lost a friend when he said transvestites and transsexuals were the same thing. When I said they weren't, he dismissed it.
~ TDG
Crossdressing is considered transphobic by the trans community.
As well as being considered misogynistic too.
All I can think is
"It's a TRAP!"
Arella17 how? Its a form of gender expression. Drag queens and drag kings aren't transphobic, it's just something they like to do. It's a performance art. And from my experience, the trans community is fine with the drag community, as long as they're not claiming that cross dressing is the same as being transgender.
Traps. Drags. Need I say more?
I really wish there was a REAL cousin Orchard Blossom, she would be great. A southern belle in the Apple family? Such wonderful reactions!
Eeyup
"That's Big Mac in a dress"

What if AJ is actually the oldest, then Mac is suffering from 'Middle Child' sydrome, a sydrome where your are pretty much invisible and the most distant with both siblings. I know, I suffer through.
TheWhiterosedragon what are you talking about? I'm the youngest and I'm waaay closer with my sister who is the middle sibling
@Shadow Fireclaws How, if I may ask?
You do know you don't have to be a middle child to have middle child syndrome right?
Rainbow Dash: "I know Applejack has a lot of relatives but I feel she would have mentioned you."
And you would have remembered if she had?
9:57 to 9:59 Can we get a response from SilverQuill about that? XD
Do you think that proves that Firebrand eats meat?
to be fair, Silver is 25% Irish chicken
Is it weird that I never watch MLP, yet I still love watching Josh's various reviews?

This was indeed a fun and heartwarming episode and I too really liked the way they handled a guy in a dress. Nobody's fooled. Nobody's raising a fuss.

Firebrand's return: Talk about several episodes that trigger Lily Peet into doing something stupid.
Ixnay on the Illyay.

Ah, relax-o-vision. That brings back memories. especially when Freakzoid kicked the guy's ass that kept doing it.
Good times

princessbinas We'll never know, it'll just be *(Sunglasses)* another mystery

Corner now.

Ahaha, Markiplier, really?
1:17 XD
So good to see you reviewing MLP again! I really laughed ar the jokes you made!
Finally! It's About Time XD
No, that's a different ep. One he already reviewed.
Actually, it's about Big Macintosh
Giovanni Orellana I thought he reviewed that episode
I don’t think they’re talking about the episode. “It’s about time” is a saying, not just the name of an MLP episode.
holly shit! i missed the amount of laughter i get from this, excellent work as always firebrand :D
let's go and say hi to senpai
I was kind of miffed that the judges saw through the disguise the whole time, but let Mac keep stringing himself along, since the disguise was clearly hampering him during the contest.
"Implying you feel guilt." 😆
Yay! It's great to have you back Josh! And with Tricky Fox no less!
Also 7:31, totally got that and I love ya for that. Yay, Dragon Ball memes!
This video is brought to you by FLUTTERBOMB!
Ka-yay~
Yay!!! Glad to see you back, I've missed your pony videos! Good luck with your finals!
FLUTTERBOMB!!
guess we're a long way off from your review of A Royal Problem.
Oh hey. this channel isn't dead, and it did a good analysis of a good episode. Not a bad way to end the day.
1:16 is this foreshadowing of the characters that would be in your collabs or just a random characters?
This ep personally hit me hard. I'm the oldest of 5 brothers, but number 2 was always the one who got all the attention and respect from the rest of my little brothers. And was more successful then me.
cant wait for lily to get triggered and attack josh again
the last of the she why would she get triggered?
she is a SJW
she would be like
on no
this ep is transfobic or something
i believe she already explained how she felt about this episode in a glass of water a long time ago. you know...SHORTLY AFTER THE EPISODE WAS OUT!!!.
so to quote Jim cornette, thank you...f(yay)k you...bye
Lily is non-existent. She's littertly a sham.
Flutterbomb! The new member of the fandom!
As usual, amazing and hilarious work, Firebrand!
FIREBRAND IS BAAAAAACK!!!!!! YAHOOOO!!!!!!
This was an awesome review collab. I enjoyed not only the return of Firebrand, but also Tricky Fox's input. Also.....FLUTTERBOMB!!!!!!
Tricky fox is blasting off again!!!
Nice touch at the end with the Lady and the Tramp 2 music.
"Let's go say hi to senPAIII~"
Man, not only was this video heartwarming and insightful, it was so freaking hilarious. I laughed hard at least THREE TIMES throughout this presentation. It was fun to watch. 😎
You must get Brawny Buck to collab! That would be awesome.
C-Rod42
I second this.
Alonzo Aldaba i third it.
Fourthed. Or alternatively, Josh could join in A Buck to the Face.
so a fiery buck to the face?
Great to see another review; everything was on point to where it feels like there wasn't a break. Hope to see more soon.
Hey, just wondering: I noticed Closed Captions during the beginning, but none for the rest of the collab. If someone wanted to contribute Closed Captions, how would one go about it?
"Let's go hi say to senpai! Oh senpai where are you! Don't, you be afraid of me~"
This guy's accent is so thick it is impossible to understand what he's saying at times.
I was thinking that too.
So many episodes left to review (44 episodes left as of this review). Woah nelly!
Lots of collabs to see for the future.
On the number of festivals they hold: That list isn't so unusual. We (in the US, at least) have at least 10 holidays per year, and that's just the big ones. For a farming community like Ponyville, these would be major social events, and I note that they way they're depicted, most of them cost more effort than money. And it kinda seems like most ponies don't work more than 4-6 hours a day. I chalk that up largely to magical climate control and the like, as it seems like AJ takes in four or five harvests per year.
And there has not been a new one in forever.
12:35
Keep in mind that it would have been an hour or two later. It's a time skip. She would have a chance to cool down, or maybe Granny talked to her as well.
IT'S ALIIIIIVE!!!
Man it's been so long since you've done a review, good to see you back! :)
Funny as always, Scorcher. Can't wait for more to come!
Not gonna lie, I can really relate to this episode as well. I have a little sister and even though we never used to get along, we do now. However, we do have our hiccups, as I feel jealous of my sister's ability to be more social, having a wonderful singing voice and make friends easily along with getting more attention in my eyes, whilst she says she's jealous of me because I have planned out things, constantly improve on my art skills and work so hard, along with supposedly me having more of the attention. Not only that, but my sister has actually said that I have inspired her, saying that I really inspired her to go back to college and not only that, the same college as me and almost all of the same courses I'm taking. It really makes me feel appreciated, not to mention I make sure to tell her that she inspires me with how many amazing ideas she tells me about, knowing that I love to write. So yeah, I can really relate to these feelings.
Well, I got a bit sappy there ^^" Oh well, needed to express this. Here's something to lighten the mood though -
*FLUTTERBOMB!*
Mr. F.B. Your video's a wonderful. Many great reviewers out there but yours are my personal favorite.
It's good to see you again, Firebrand! Keep up the good work!!
welcome back! Hope to see more pony content, now that you have collabs set up
That was really fun. Also, using "Always There" from Lady and the Tramp II....yeah, that was pretty sweet : )
Glad to have you back firebrand. :)
Good to see you back in the saddle.
...
I'm going to the moon, aren't I?
Yaaaayyy! I was just wondering the other day what happened to my favorite bronies' channels lately, and my first favorite brony is finally back! Great review of the episode, and great jokes. Please keep going!
Ok, you had me rolling with the darn markiplier reference at the beginning. "Let's go say hi to senpie" haha 😂
