>>42946139I liked most of it.
>>42946139Ok i'll say itWHY THE FUCK WOULD THEY PICK THE WORST EPISODE TO PUT SO MUCH EFFORT INTO?
>>42946210>worst episodeIts a great episode with wonderful music.
>>42946189Sadly, but expectedly, there are only like 30 decent to good artists from ~100. So 70% of the video looks like shit - with Tumblr vitiligo abominations that are overdesigned and square-muzzled; and some ugly humanised versions sometimes thrown in. Most 3D ones were not phenomical (except Minty Root), but still charming to see. Makaryo needed to attentionwhore with G%. So just skipping through the video again, shoutouts to Minty Root, fart, PK Driana, pfeffaroo, Danzei Animation, Printik, BlitzyPegasus, itsraininghorses, fangedcreeture, LlamaLauncher, LBRCloud, wheezy, Solstrike06, OL Thomas, EnderCatCore, SyrupyyyArt, Commander Carrot, sp.rockit, EntirelyConspiracy, Ann Keeling, Studio Cinemagic & Oomles, Riocin, durazmomo, darn_skipyy, Acidigon, SolarPunch, hypercrash, Ash, (and Twital my beloved) for making the video look good or for the rest 30%! :DThough those 30% only felt like 10% somehow, so maybe the shit ones got more screentime, Idk.
>>42946139Well, that was a waste of my time.
>>42946276Holy fuark. Also, man, so disappointing that the iconic scene where Twilight reveals her wings was wasted on a shit artist.
>>42946276*vomiting intensifies*
>>42946264>dogshit-tier episode got in majority dogshit-tier styles like >>42946276 picked for itIt was better left rotting, everything connected to it shares its curse
>>42946281For me, it was Pinkie getting her mark back, wanting to see everypony smile, and having the crowd shout "PINKIE!!" in unison. The total lack of everything in the reanimated version hurt me.
>>42946264>no BatsyThat's all I asked for.
>>42946139Buy an ad
>>42946281At least Twilight looks nice in their style. Pinkie not getting eye scrollies is more of a shame as funny as the BSOD joke is, even if that artist's animation is otherwise high quality (the missing townsponies are a fair point though and even if the animation is good is just kind of weird and barely fitting what they did with it). I did like seeing what people did with the eye scenes, RD's is pretty kino and AJ is very funny.
>>42946406I asked Batsy if he was going to participate in the Reanimated and he responded by saying that he was 'too good' to be wasting his time on such a lowlife troon project and that people should stop asking him about it. Then he attached an image of Fair Flyer flyer flipping me off with her wings and subsequently blocked me. Kinda weird, but okay.
>>42946210Normalfags love all the worst episodes, just look up the IMDB ratings. Most people are tremendously retarded.
Honestly, I thought it would be worse.There's the typical shit of horrific humanisations, an overly long g% segment (take a guess who's responsible for it), some very weird redesigns... but a surprising amount of it is good, even sovlfvl at points.The quality is like that meme that keeps flipping between "it's over" and "we're so back".
>>42946432>TheBatShart>good
>>42946139wtf, I requested to be put on this when the project was announced, but never heard back from this guy. Not even a "sorry, we're full". If he were taking popular animators only I'd understand but I don't recognize over half of these people. And yes I'm a competent animator.
>>42946432I think Batsy rejected it because he wouldn't be able to insert any of his indian culture like street shitting bats into it
>>42946503Oops, you failed the background check. He caught ya drawing some foalcon on your account.
>>42946503>And yes I'm a competent animatorYou know the rules nonnyPost your stuff
>>42946504Rude!
>>42946513total bs because the worst thing I've drawn is semi-grimdark. I follow some nsfw artists in the community but it's not like I endorse everything they post.
>>42946503>never heard backMaybe you actually got unlucky and he missed your message. But I agree, show your work.
>>42946514>>42946529not falling for this bait because I don't want my whining tied back to my account
>>42946276Who the fuck is that white-green horse?
I expected everything but whatever this is when Rarity started talkingYou can barely say this part is animated
>>42946533Jonkler Rarity
>>42946276>>42946541Sweet Celestia what the fuck is that? Looks like I made the right choice initially dismissing this as shit.
>>42946541>WE WUZ MYSTEREE CURRIN N' SHIET
>>42946139it definitely wasnt as bad as some people are saying, certainly not only 30% good, but overall there were a couple points that stuck with me:>some very competent and well-done scenes even by some lesser-skilled artists (good job guys)>some jokes that emhanced rather than detracted from the episodebut then>humanized versions that just never look good (could be excused because everyone gets their own take on things)>some perhaps not experienced enough artists in there (although thats part of the style of these things so it can be forgiven)>some artists being given multiple scenes when they clearly didnt put the amount of effort they needed into each of them (at that point delegate so other artists can have a chance!)>some artists not drawing the cutie marks on the ponies when thats literally the whole point of the fucking episode>Makaryo shoehorning g5 in there (his scene also just looked like shit)>GatorGoatJohnny nearly fucking ruining twilight's transformation scene to be "le epic funni" like a fucking faggot>why is rarity GREENOverall I thought it was pretty good, but some decisions were made that did not need to be, and it sounds like some people were ignored but could have definitely gotten a scene or two and would have enhanced it.But I dunno, thats how things always go with these things I guess.
Wow... The only part that didn't look awful was that one dude that animated like the show.Holy Tumblr.I could see an animation professor have a field day with this. Overall it's good for whoever animated this they definitely could use the feedback to fix whatever that was.
>>42946585It really showcases how awful this fandom's normalfag side is.
>>42946620I kneel
>>42946612It's the primary reason I ignore fandom projects. I don't want to get flashbanged with shit like this.
>GatorGoatJohnny
>>42946566It's before the intro, the worst possible moment to showcase your 22 min project
>>42946541How are we STILL letting humanization fags infest our board?
>>42946627
>>42946675This one was creative and funny>>42946620This one not>>42946673Dude I like eqg and humanization but that nigger rarity is disgusting, you need to pause the vid to identify what you're watching
>>42946620>>42946627>>42946675>>42946681What are you guys talking about? That's how Spike normally looks!
>>42946432>he was 'too good' to be wasting his time on such a lowlife troon projectI mean, even the worst of drawfags is too good to participate in troon-mlp projects.
G6 is looking good!
>>42946737>cant even recognize a joke posttruly this site is dead
>>42946848Lmao what the fuck is that? I genuinely cannot fathom how somebody could think this looks good. It looks like they just dipped random body parts in ribena.
>>42946848>>42946276Art is art and I try not to shit on people but these are fucking disgusting. Also random FO:E pixel art shit and that fucking G5 out of nowhere. What the fuck was this project even about?
>>42946848Why the colours? What is it always with the colours? Genuinely, is this what happens if you're colourblind? Does this look better if you can't perceive colours normally?
>>42946998You are witnessing the consequences of "love and tolerate."
>>42946139This was something I was surprised /mlp/ never did. Even something smaller, like reanimating Smile Song would be cool. I don't think the board could do an entire episode.
>>42946848Tell me this was done by some furnigger with an inflation fetish without telling me that this was done by some furnigger with an inflation fetish
>>42947043That requires effort and most anons are lazy, or they're phonefags.
>>42947043/mlp/ wouldn't be able to do 10 seconds lmaoif you made a thread it would either die with 12 replies or be 700 posts of shitflinging and arguing over the color of the sky (accomplishing nothing)
>>42946922I've seen so many people say so many stupid shit that ended up being true over the years that I wouldn't be surprised if Batsy had actually said something like that. This board has taught me that, no matter how stupid a take is, there's something who genuinely believes that.
>>42947104there's someone* who genuinely believes it*
>>42946276looks inspired by the shit they used to animate in the 60sThat aside, are we really just going to shit on a bunch of teenagers and their admittedly shitty artstyles? Also it's pretty obvious that the ones with odd coloring are taking inspiration from, well, actual horses.Makes me wonder if some asshat on this board was ragging on me and my friends' garbage art trades on deviantart over a decade ago...
>>42947119>are we really just going to shit on a bunch of teenagers and their admittedly shitty artstyles? Yes.
>>42946998The FO:E segments were very short and (I assume) were meant to be more tributes to gaming in general than to FO:E specifically (FO:E is just a nice aesthetic for that). At least that's how it felt for me. The g% shit was definitely too long though>t. foefag>>42947014Here, be the judge of that (spoiler alert: not really).
>>42947119If someone who put something really shitty into this compilation sees this thread, finds out we're razzing them, then either changes their style or stops drawing, then I'd call that a win.
>>42947168That's not really how most colour blindness works but black-ish and white-ish being used is probably a sign that it's not that anyways.
>>42947190True, it's the least common type of colour blindness from what I recall, but I'd reason that if it looks bad even in monochrome, then it's not a good sign.
>>42947119>>42947140The problem isn't the art style per se, but their submission hereTo be honest, there are many entries from artists whose style might not be very cool, but they still did a good job hereCheck out ShadowSnowFlake (the Pinkie part at the Apple farm during "what my cutie mark is telling me"), his style is very Tumblr and not to my taste, but he did a good job: kinda cartoonish, fluid, and he wasn't afraid to do several scenes, not just oneNot everyone has to have the Batsy artstyle to be considered goodThe problem lies in things that make you question why they were included and what the quality bar is, like >>42946541And it's fine, your interpretation of the mane 6 can be different from canon, but this >>42946276 ?If you're going to participate in a reanimated project, have the decency to leave your subjectivities aside and follow the work you're doing with a minimum of coherenceIt's a reanimated project, not a collage where you're being prized as famous artist and take the opportunity to include your own memes and your OCs and your friends' OCs, like Makaryo
>>42947014Artists will often try to 'interpret' character designs to fit their own aesthetic sensibilities, or at least to put their own artistic fingerprint on their reproduction of the design. This usually leads to pointless re-takes on perfectly functional designs, with the idea being to make it 'different' and 'my own', rather than to make it look good. It's a nice reminder that being able to draw and being able to come up with something appealing are completely separate skillsets.
>>42947196Compare this to the series "DOORS", where the artists were trying to do something cool and funny, not "omg I have a space to do whatever and include MY stuff!">>42947169true
