^'Ditzy' usually implies just a general clumsiness.

Ditzy implies airheadness.

Because "for the lulz" is a perfectly good reason to do something.

I'd say Sweetie Belle can be a little absent minded

You could say the same for everypony in the show at one point or another. Sweetie Belle is a child, thinking things through isn't something children are best known for.

She's the sweetest I think, she's definitely the least confrontational of the 3. One reason I consider her slow is because of that really long pause she took before clocking on to what Scoot and Apple were doing in Stare master

I keep thinking that Friendship is Magic may have pulled a little switcheroo with Pinkie Pie and Sweetie Belle, because in earlier cartoons Pinkie Pie was pretty mellow and a little dim, in an endearing, Winnie-the-Pooh sort of way, while in later cartoons Sweetie Belle was voiced by Andrea Libman and has been into some of the same activities as Pinkie Pie. I wonder if they'll try to make Sweetie Belle into Pinkie Pie's protegee again down the line.

And my friend has indicated that he was able to get one of the posters (albeit with a fold in it).

Damn you guys posted a lot today. Stupid work, cutting into pony time.

Applebloom is my favorite CMC. She's just so cute! I loved her ever since her "Ah ahm a big pony, " from Bridle Gossip.

Yeah, that episode seems to be the main reason people say Sweetie Belle is kinda dumb. There was also later in that episode when she's like "I wonder what woke the chickens up, " and the other two just facehoof.

Actually, given how shy Sweetie Bell seems to be about her singing, it's pretty likely she doesn't know how powerful her voice is - just because nopony's ever told her, 'you are very loud'. Its her voice, it's not like she's going to realize how loud she is.

...I'm gonna go listen to 'hush now quiet now' again.

Not a big humanization fan, but they are cute.

If I had to pick just one CMC, I'd probably go with Apple Bloom, but they all have their endearing qualities.

Anyway, since OCs and Twilight have been stealing all my colouring time, I've decided to do at least one colour picture for each of the rest of the main six. So have some Fluttershy

It's tough to say which CMC is my favorite. They're all likable in there own right. But if I have to pick one, it would be Sweetie Bell.

Don't make me fire Pinky's party cannon.

Here's a new topic that I discussed earlier on Equestria Forums: Rarity's singing voice. Is it just me, or does it just sound nothing like Rarity's talking voice? It just sounds too deep and low pitched to sound like Rarity to me

Low-pitched? I'd say her speaking voice is much deeper than her singing voice.

There's a spot in Art of the Dress where you can pretty obviously hear the singer taking over, and she's much higher-pitched.

Bide your time and hold out hope.

#11144 Pannic Fri, 22nd Jul '11 7:31:52 AM

Actually, I agree. Rarity's sining voice sounds like a mezzo-soprano, but her speaking voice sounds like a soprano.

#11145 randomguy 123 Fri, 22nd Jul '11 8:13:24 AM

Now we're discussing the TONE of the Pony's song-voice actors? really? o_o

On the CMC subject, I find them a little bit annoying, but they're too adorable for me to dislike them. Especially Applebloom. Speaking of which, am I the only one who thinks she has the most character development out of the trio?

I still prefer Fluttershy >.>

I'm a music major specializing in voice. I notice things like this.

Also, they are voice types/ranges. Not "tones."

One thing I like about this thread is our general agreement to look at the fact that they're animated ponies, agree on that, then set it aside and get down to discussing things like politics and theology. With that in mind, discussing voice actors and singers is actually a step back toward normal levels of investigation, really. =D

#11149 kegisak Fri, 22nd Jul '11 8:40:01 AM

I definitely think you're right about Applebloom having the most character development. It's because she's gotten pretty much her own episode - that's one of the things I'd like to see in the second season, is a focus episode for each of the CMC individually.

My first episode was The Cutie Mark Chronicles (not the best as a start, but how was I supposed to know that when inflipped to The Hub that day?) and I just loved Scootaloo. I could all too identify with the willful ignoring of the Aesop, "All these stories are about namely pamby stuff like finding out who you really are!". And I could see why I would have loved this to pieces as a little kid!
