Description
Yeah, it felt a bit rushed, but not as rushed as A Canterlot Wedding’s second part.

Ah. Herp-de-Derp
I know. Just thought the juxtaposition was kinda funny.
MMC on the other hand, was racing through it’s plot points for the first two acts.
If McCarthy’s twitter is to be believed, then MMC is the first part in a three part story (Like the Opening of the Dominion War ark in Deep Space Nine), which gives me the feeling that the third act of MMC wasn’t denouement, but a plateauing of rising action.
It’s called pacing back and forth. As in “walk 30 paces to the treasure.”
On an unrelated note, I love how the other pic with the tag “pacing” has nothing to do with any of this.
both are flawed. i liked them, but i’m not super crazy about ’em either.
Magical Mystery Cure was unbearable
Twilight observed a problem. She discovered that she had caused it. She then promptly knew how to fix it, and encountered no significant obstacles in doing so.
No, this wasn’t really a conflict. The whole episode essentially demonstrated her magical power and her understanding of friendship.
The entire episode was a culmination. A walk-in. A…
…coronation.
Canterlot Wedding had 35 minutes of build up but was rushed through at the end.
Song about everything being fine > Song about cutie marks > Song about being sad > Song about fixing shit > Song about “OMG TWILIGHT IS SO AWESOME AND COOL!” > Repeat of first song
See, I can make episodes sound rushed too. Except this one actually is rushed.
It was superficially enjoyable but most of the actual plot was over in the first 10 minutes.
Yeah, I think this.
But sure it’s butthurt.
At least it wasn’t…
Rescue Princess > Villain Song > Interupt Wedding > Celestia gets ass handed > Mane Six gets ass handed > “I love you!” {boom} > half-assed moral > “Did I miss anything?” > Ending on a laugh despite the majority of the two-parter being fucking depressing and dark.
