This may be old news for everyone, but what was with the complaints on Derpy Hooves? I saw the original clip of her voice and the new voice didnt suit my liking. Whats up with this?

I'm sorry L Mage but by virtue if being a fan of Glee means the last scentence in your signature is automatically false. Now where was I...

My view on the songs is more: "Hey, they're singing a song I've heard before."

Though they do tend to sing the lyrics more clearly than the original singers.

No, by virtue of being a Gleek the last sentence of my sig is true :P

@Theoriginalblader

Enough people believe the word "Derp" to be offensive that Hasbro was forced to edit the scene. She's still know as Derpy to the majority of fans and the people behind the show as well, though. She'll just never get named on screen again. The voice change was actually correcting an error, as Tabitha voiced the character as if she was a boy.

Roger Rabbit was an awesome movie with lots of iconic scenes between famed cartoons (eg. the brilliant piano duel between Daffy and Donald). Be warned though, just because it has lots of slapstick toons doesn't mean it doesn't have dark points (such as the traumatic manner they first demonstrate the dip...).

[up]Meh, I don't get the voice change as the newer one has less character. It seems like they might have been offended by her 'dur dur' type dialect, despite a million previous cartoons having it.

Haven't scene Glee, but my art teacher told me it's something I'd like. Wonder why.
Everything's been done. Everything has a meaning. However your life at best is to serve as a building block for others.

Goodnight, Freeman and Drenius

And while I enjoy Glee, liking it not automatically make the last line of L Mage's signature True or False.

[up][up]If you like it, then yes.

@Mage I'm not even gonna say that I hate Glee. It wouldn't be fair.

I DO however, think that it being what controls the charts is a TERRIBLE thing.

My reaction to Glee was pretty much the same as Todd's

I've got nothing against the show, but modern covers tend to be more for recognition factor than for the music itself. My stance on covers like the ones on Glee is basically the same as crowlover's. And yeah, I'm kinda frustrated the charts are determined more by "hey, that's the song from that show" rather than the actual quality of the music, but given the type of music I like I'm used to my tastes never being in line with the populace at large.

JT speaks the truth regarding Glee. A bunch of high schoolers cannot compare to the likes of Queen or Journey.-_-

It was edited out because a few people got offended, even though a lot more people were in favor of it and other cartoons have been much worse.

@Original Yeah, which is why the voice was changed. They actually had to pitch her voice up in post to make it sound less boyish, and it was still androgynous. As for Political Correctness Gone Mad, yes it sucks, but it's just the way media works.

The only part of the edit that actually bugs me was that they underped her eyes. I mean, that's the whole reason the character was popular to begin with.

So I'm back from seeing Snow White and the Huntsman. It turned out to be much closer to awesome than I expected. I wouldn't expect it to change anyone's mind if they don't like fantasy, but if you do, it's good.

And while Snow White wasn't particularly impressive in the acting department, I really liked her character on paper. She's exactly the sort of female character I like to see in fantasy stories.

Anyway, I just skipped 10 pages, what have y'all been up too? I can't honestly say I disapprove of the change though, since I haven't heard the new voice.

[up] Didn't they change her voice too? I liked her original voice.

@Story

This is a show that's supposed to be for everyone, so if something is potentially offensive like that, they have to cut it. South Park, Family Guy, and the like get by on being offensive because they don't have an image to uphold otherwise, and said offensiveness is the source of most of their humor.

I'm pretty much with Mousa on that one; the changes suck, but it's nothing worth getting worked up over.

@Blue: What I meant was out of the edits as a whole, the eyes was the only thing that actually bothered me. I didn't mind excising the name or changing the voice.

Surprise ate Moe, then Mousa, and L Mage ate ginger.

They're all fine now, though.
