Pimpin' the new Brony Documentary
12 years ago
General
You ever wonder why the documentary that John De Lancie put together has that weird, long, and convoluted name?
That's because this documentary was being made first and copy righted the good name:
What else can I say about this documentary? Well for one, this guy has a pretty decent presence in the documentary, and as such, I was kind of privy to seeing it in development. I can say that it's pretty much the documentary the fandom needs. It's not going to blow the pants off of anyone, but one thing I really appreciate is the neat outsider-looking-in narrative, via Ashleigh Ball, the documentary has (and, yes, she's freakin' adorable in this and a good sport about the whole brony thing). It also does a really good job of keeping the autism to an absolute minimum, and I can easy say that this is a great gateway documentary for showing to people outside the brony fandom.
The only thing hurting it was how long it took to put out there. The brony craze is pretty much gone these days and everyone knows what a brony is. Even I have pretty much departed from the actual fandom.
Anyways, keep an eye out.

the ride is ending. and making so many documentaries is pointless for something short-living. however there are things that won't disappear.
But yeah, I definitely agree that the ride is ending. The fandom isn't really what it used to be, and the show isn't what I feel love with. This was all mostly filmed shortly after season 1, when the high was still there, so that's good for the film and it even was in production before John's doc. But, the director just didn't rush things (maybe should have rushed them more) and now it's kinda missed the golden opportunity to display this. It'll still be a good doc, just not insanely popular like it could have been.
I really hope it gets released soon.
