The MLP era really was something magical for fan animation and other fan created art. I've never seen such a passionate fan base of actual creatives before or since. MLP is fading in the rear view at this point, going farther and farther into the past and quickly becoming forgotten... But it sure was a good time.

[@lordrorek1907]

I do hope at some point there's a revival this Fandom was way to good to be forgotten. I hope that like Star Trek maybe the release of the new series will bring it back a bit.

[@skye1491]

It's not over

[@NikoZguri]

how is it being forgotten, exactly? there are still a lotta really talented people in this community still doing fan content to this day. just because MLP isn’t in its hay day anymore, doesn’t mean people are forgetting about it

[@EldyPlaysMinecraft]

I get really confused when I see posts like this because the community is still strong and new things are coming out all the time.

[@TheDrexxus]

@@EldyPlaysMinecraft I don't think yall remember what it was like when the show was actually on lol The mountains of content after every single episode. It always died down a few weeks after the season finale and started to awaken closer to the next season's release. But after the show's finale, it dropped dramatically. The overwhelming majority have moved on. Now i'm sure there are still some folks who still post stuff from time to time, but it is a hollow shell of what it once was, particularly when it comes to more sophisticated stuff like custom animations.

The animation that introduced me to Save Ferris❤ Was obsessed with this animation as a kid

[@cassandrafoxx4171]

This is one of the few times where a cover of a song sounds a lot better than the original. SaveFerris' version of Come On Eileen is fast-paced and lively (unlike Dexy's Midnight Runners, who sound like they sung it at 2am after an all-night booze-up), and suits Spitfire's video extremely well. Well done, Cap. Keep it up!

Whenever I'm having an off day (pun intended) I come back to this animation. It's just perfect, love everything about it. The animation style is awesome, the characterization of Spitfire is wonderfully done, and then to pair it with an amazing song brings it over the top. You are a talented animator that's obvious but you also are gifted with composition, putting the pieces here together to give us insight into what was at the time a minor character. Spitfires true joy is flying, it allows a freedom and fulfillment that is evident in this video. Thank you for sharing this work of art with us.

the n word

[@Anino_Makata]

For your first point, what she has in her Joe's probably something stronger than Red Bull... And for your second point, that's actually a good question. Maybe she just flies at high enough altitudes and at high enough speeds to avoid bugs and discourage them from getting close?

[@grayeaglej]

@@Anino_Makata You may be correct about the RedBull o.o However the video shows her flying at optimal bug ingestion altitude. :/ Perhaps pegasai generate some form of magical deflection field during flight? Would explain how they can attain super sonic speeds without being flayed alive :c

[@Anino_Makata]

Mouse GrayEagle Perhaps. That's actually another good point, how pegasi can fly at 5-10x the speed of sound and not get skinned alive. But for the bugs, who knows? Perhaps Spitfire just *sucks it up* and swallows any bug unfortunate enough to get into her pie hole? 'Cause let's face it, this is Spitfire the Badass Military Girl, after all.

[@telaros1802]

Not often I actually bother to praise stuff that's obviously wonderful. But this is all kinds of beautiful soul warming goodness. I've never been so in love with ponies as I am with Spitfire right now. I wish we had more of these simple fun videos. I could only wish we had this kind of Spitfire sing anything remotely musical in her own focused episode. Even if on screen for 30 seconds. Wonderful animation here. Great choice of song to give Spitfire here. This one's a winner. Best I've seen all year and dare I say even the last. It's just far too addicting and I find myself repeating this over and over again. Bravo. Song, character, and style mixed perfectly well here. It's an all time favorite for me now. What made you pick this song and what gave you the idea for this?

[@CaptainHoers]

Telaros The song choice was a convenient discovery that fit with a bunch of things. This video is part of a story arc on my blog that channels Ferris Bueller's Day Off. On top it just being a flat out upbeat song, which suits the mood (totally fits with the parade scene, lifted straight out of the movie), and a nice slice of 90s cheese with some more cultured 80s heritage (my blog draws very heavily on 90s nostalgia), it's by the band "Save Ferris", which is another reference. The rhythm of chorus and verse also suits the journey being made (point A to point B with stops C and D in between). Originally I was going to use the Reel Big Fish's cover of Take On Me, which had the bonus of being a little shorter and just as upbeat and with the same 90's-80's callback, but I went with this song for the rhythm and the extra reference power. The idea wasn't amazingly complicated! I aim to do a fairly large animation for release on May 12th every year, and my Patreon has been going well for the last half a year or so, so to celebrate a bit I went back to the finished story blog I'm the most known for an encore. Just a short story arc - a coda - that shows how far the character has come. Believe me, people going back to read my blog after how damn happy Spitfire is here are in for a bit of a shock. Suffice to say, she's earned her happy ending.

[@MKtheinstrumentalist]

CaptainHoers I would pay you a universe-explodingly-large sum of money to make an animated version of Crash And Burn in it's entirety. I'd be so worth it, your art-style is just beautifully unique. Everything you do looks magical to see and feels awesome to watch. ;-)

[@CaptainHoers]

MKtheinstrumentalist On the one hand it'd give me a chance to revisit the sloppy early parts of the story, but on the other I'm not quite sure I'm ready to drop one to two years of my life on it :p

[@HeroOfTheHolySword]

When I first saw this animation I had some legitimate capital-F Feelings. I had just run through the entire Spitfire story at the time, kinda binging it, but I'd been casually keeping up with the story up until then, too. After everything she'd been through, seeing her able to be this openly and genuinely happy was uplifting, and coming back to this animation still helps me with my own depression.

After a very very long time of denial, I finally started transitioning in 2019, but I never settled on a name. First I tried Cora, then Tempe, even a couple names that absolutely didn't fit me at ALL like Allison and Luna (no shade, this is a joke for other trans girls). Then in August, I was looking through some family photos and found a great great Aunt who never married but lived with her "roommate" well into old age. Her name was Eileen. I couldn't help but smile when I remembered your adorable animation to one of my favorite Ska songs. Wasn't 100% sure til I met my girlfriend later that month.. When I hear her say my name I know it's right. As soon as the magistrate opens up again for non-emergencies, it will be my name on paper too. So thank you, for making this name, my name, stand out so much those years ago. It means the world, a life, in fact. Thank you ❤️

@@CaptainHoers Oh no I lost you in all my notifications lol I kinda can't believe you saw this, but I'm glad to hear it might have made you smile in this pretty rough time we're all going through. Thank you again, and much love from my girl, she's a fan of the name too ;3

Despite how popular this song is, this video was the first time I'd ever heard it. Now everytime it comes on the radio I think of this! :)
