Episode Review: Look Before You Sleep

The jokes just write themselves for this one.




Commander Firebrand has released his next MLP Episode Review: "Look Before You Sleep!" In this one, he teams up with Darth Subtlety and fights a heroic battle against the evil Hurricane Sandy! (No he doesn't, but wouldn't that be awesome?)

I don't know why he's still talking in the third person either. Hit the jump for the latest episode plus all links to previous ones!

Interview: Firemane

Another interesting individual was spotted by our recon team at Canterlot Gardens. He goes under the pseudonym "Firemane", despite having no such thing. He is apparently involved in wood-altering activities. This had to be investigated.

Check it out below!

Interview: Andrea Libman

Source

Our recon team spotted a pink blur, seemingly bouncing around in the halls of Canterlot Gardens. Once they caught up with it, it turned out to be a yellow pony hiding behind it's pink mane. After some introductions and promises that we weren't dangerous, she agreed to talk to us. 

Catch our interview with Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie and/or Andrea Libman below!


Fan Fiction Review #017: The Youth in the Garden


*sniff* Oh, dear Celestia...*sob*....... Uh, OH! H-Hey guys! I didn't, uh...*sniff* didn't see you there! What, this? Oh, it's nothing. *sniff* I just, um... got dust in my eye! And, I'm... allergic to, uh... s-stuff.


DON'T YOU JUDGE ME!!

Author: The Descendant
September 17th, 1862 became the single bloodiest day in American history when a battle was fought along the Antietam Creek near Sharpsburg, Maryland. 
Yesterday, Fluttershy hummed happily as she watered her garden. 
The two events are not unrelated.
Will this story survive the wrath of the Drill? Find out after the jump!

ARTillery Inbound #014

OMG! What are you doing Lance Corpral Shmuckatelli!

Unfortunately SOME PONY decided to go and do something stupid on the parade deck. Then SOME OTHER PONY decided to upload the pictures on to Facehoof, and now they are here.

In any case, we must suspend our non-mission essential activites while we adjust fire for the next ARTillery inbound!

SITREP #021: BlackGryp0n's Been Busy!


As the title says, BlackGryph0n, one of our fellow Military Bronies, has been rather busy doing quite a lot of pony related things. Since we've had our hands full here at the FOB with several of our own projects and events, we haven't had the time to properly promote our comrade's work!

That's what this post is for! Want to catch up on some of his latest exploits? Well then...

Catch up with BlackGryph0n after the jump!

Interview: Amy Keating Rogers


Our recon team has uncovered super secret intelligence on how pony stories are conceived. It may or may not include magic, muffins and/or oatmeal. But it definetly involves Amy Keating Rogers.

Interview: Cathy Weseluck


Next on the list of super awesome people we interviewed at Canterlot Gardens is Cathy Weseluck. For those of you not familiar, she voice Mayor Mare and Spike on our beloved show.

Being as she voices the chararcter of Twilight's #1 assistant, how can you guys resist? I could try to make that an order... but who would listen to me anyway?

Catch the interview after the jump!

SITREP #020: A Creber Christmas



"Hello, this is A Creber Christmas, may I take your order?"

SITREP #019: Season 3 Announced for... Marine Corps Birthday?



Well... this is a pleasant surprise/coincidence.

Season 3 of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is airing on November 10th, 2012 when 237 years ago the Marine Corps was founded in Tun Tavern, Fillydelphia. Did they do this intentionally to subtly give a shoutout to of the one of the most rising subsections of the Brony fandom? Maybe. Then again, we should hardly be surprised considering 1. We're awesome. 2. We're Tara Strong's favorite Bronies. 3. Shining Armor is in the episode and seems to be playing a game of tag with Lord Somber.

Post in the forums about your speculations! Will this season be awesome? Or will it be more awesome?

And from week to week he posts episodic reviews of episodes in sequence. This week's review: "Dragonshy!" with special guest Chewie from one of our allies "The Chaos Theatre!"

I don't know why he's talking in the third person either. He says to hit the jump for the latest episode plus all links to previous ones!

15 October 2012

Interview: Tara Strong


This was a close one. Canterlot Gardens was coming to a close, and Tara had just been so busy, that it looked like the interview wasn't going to happen... and then I realized that WE ARE THE MILITARY BRONIES.

As the saying goes, I went to guns! I took action! I went directly to Tara and I... well, I turned a bit into Fluttershy and politely asked if it would, umm... if we could possibly... you know, maybe interview her after she was done signing autographs... if that was okay with her, that is.

And it worked! ~yay~

Catch the interview with the Brony Queen after the jump!

SITREP #017: It's Great to be Different!

It's a little late, but watch the result below. You won't regret it.

FEGN #6: Halo Reach



Orbital Drop Shock Ponies


So I haven't been able to make it to most of the game night recently due to circumstances beyond my control. However, GTR Blackhawk is willing to host this week's game night.

Interview: Grey DeLisle

caffeineandcarpaltunnel:

Grey DeLisle, ladies and gents.

Oh, Grey DeLisle <3

Another interview for my favorite bronies out there. Who is Grey DeLisle, you ask? You say she's not part of the show? Well... you'd be right. Still doesn't change the fact that she is an awesomely talented voice actor who was attending Canterlot Gardens.

Also, she just so happens to be a friend of the Queen of the Bronies, Tara Strong. So you should probably watch this interview.

Songs for the Troops #018: A Final Twilight


Don't mess with him, he's got a baseball cap!
This song is called "A Final Twilight" and it's kind of farewell song from both the creator, and Twilight's perspective.

A little sad, but hopefully a new recruit is about join the ranks of military bronies everywhere. Hey, soilders, he's going to Army basic, and aiming for Special Operations. Wish him luck and maybe give him some support for his next step into his brave new world.

Click on the link below to see the YouTube, then check out his description.

Interview: Britt McKillip


The voice of the newest princess to grace the land of Equestria, Princess Cadence, was kind enough to take some time and speak with us. Britt McKillip is still very new to this whole "Brony" thing, but that didn't stop her!

Catch the interview after the jump! Jump in! Jump after it! Jump... okay, I'm done.

Interview: Lee Tockar


Lee Tockar may not voice any of the prominent characters in our beloved show, but why should that stop us from interviewing a veteran voice actor? He's got tons of talent! That, and he's a totally awesome, fun guy. Don't believe me? See for yourself!

ARTillery Inbound: #013: Are you not entertained?!


GET OVER HERE!!!.....Um, if you don't mind.by *joelashimself


... ummm ...

TWILIGHT IS CLEARLY FINE

...

She is obviously wearing a glow belt underneath, and that is what is keeping her okay, that and cartoon physics. I mean really, she seems just kind of annoyed and surprised. That and Fluttershy is clearly very sorry.

And just like in real life, you've all earned enough veterancy or something to drop a MOAB of Art. So let the game focused art begin!
