Remember the "Bronies" documentary? The one that got pirated like all digital media, and John DeLancie ragequit twitter forever because of it? The one that raised an absurd amount of funding ($322,022 out of $60,000 needed)? Apparently, it's back.
Here we go again.
According to an update on the 2 year old Kickstarter, they plan on releasing the extra footage in segments, once a week.
The update reads:
"First, we apologize, this communication is long overdue. We thank you for patiently waiting for the “Unreleased Tapes” aka “Bronies 2.” Our plan was to finish all the segments and then release them in a nice big bundle. Unfortunately, that task has proved daunting due to the time intensive care each segment has required and our limited resources.We don’t want to delay any longer, so we we’ve decided to start releasing a segment each week starting today. After they have all been released, we will ship the DVD’s and other merch backers are entitled to receive.The first video, starring John Joseco is here.
First up is the story of John Joseco. Explore the history behind one of the most prolific artists to contribute to the Brony fandom, and see how his military family heritage and his father's legacy have influenced his art.
The segment is released on our YouTube Channel here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qalUjy485Bg Enjoy and we’ll see you next week with a new segment.
Best, Michael Brockhoff and the BronyDoc team."
Does this mean that digital sales of the Documentary did better than they anticipated?
What other segments are we going to see? Will we see our favorite characters and disturbed parents again? Will we ever see John DeLancie or Lauren Faust again? Most importantly:
More stuff the world never needed or demanded.
ReplyDeleteFinally making an announcement about the unreleased tapes about the same time as "A Brony Tale" starts gaining steam? Gee, what a coincidence.
ReplyDeleteI wonder who will be next week.
ReplyDeleteThe only documentary I would be looking forward to is the one with writers and Lauren discussing what could've been, some behind the scenes stuff and maybe a bit of Tabitha as well.
ReplyDeleteThis generic bullshit with a bunch of horsefamous people and autistic manchildren telling us the story how MLP changed their life... not interested.
Me neither. Especially sick and tired of these horse famous assholes; bunch of talentless hacks who act so badly in the public eye, and yet I can't get anyone to fucking help me with voice acting. I don't have the money for schooling, or training, or even an agent, and yet these assholes get away with murder while I can't get a fucking start!
ReplyDeleteStill, all these horse famous assholes.....how can any of these people---how can ANYONE be so oblivious, insensitive, arrogant, hateful, tactless, boorish, stuck up, insensitive, and ill-tempered to everyone they meet!?
Oh, geez, here we are again with the 'talentless hack' anon.
DeleteOh my god. You sound bitter. Get a job you talentless hack. You don't get some freebie ticket. You actually have to, you know, figure it out yourself. Someone like you sounds better for flipping burgers.
DeleteSome e-horses deserve it, others don't. I don't care for most of them but a lot do have undeniable talent. They can't help they're popular, but some do need to learn PR for themselves. It's very clear to me why you're not one of them rofl.
Anon 1 sounds like a bitter, lonely virgin.
DeleteI'm a bitter, lonely, virgin, am I? I'm only good for flipping burgers? Fine. I'll do you mother fuckers a favor, then. I'll pull a Bud Dwyer, so you cold hearted mother fuckers will never have to see or hear from me again!
DeleteAnon, don't. You will get your opportunity. Just, live and let live, y'know? Don't hate on other people just because they achieved a little spotlight--especially since being horse famous doesn't amount to that much.
DeleteOh goody. You're threatening suicide now to guilt trip us. Fuck off, anon 1. If you'd really kill yourself over some random nobodies on the internet saying mean things you, when you're on a site ran by fucking 4chan, then frankly, you're so stupid that you deserve to die. You're not fucking suicidal, so don't insult us. GTFO the internet and get back to flipping my fucking burgers.

DeleteJohn De Lancie already did this kickstarter asking for an additional $15,000 for the unreleased (un-edited) tapes.
ReplyDeleteApparently using adobe premiere pro costs 15K, on top of what de lancie and crew pocketed.
Nice guys, show your class.
Why all this horse famous autistic bs instead of behind the scenes/showing parts of the original show bible?
ReplyDeleteIt's always been a documentary about the fans, not about the show itself.
DeleteGiven the reception the last one got, I doubt this one will get the same amount of backing.
ReplyDeletewaiting for tumblr drama over this
ReplyDeleteA lot of tumblrinas seem to hate JJ's guts for, as best as I can tell, no other reason than because of Molly.
I just hate his guts because he didn't have the fucking decency to thank or address his fans after Molestia went down, nor did he bother to fight Hasjew's money-grubbing scumbaggary.
DeleteAnon 2: I dunno. It's not like this fandom is a political movement. For some, it's just a fun hobby. When it's more of a hassle than fun to do a thing, it's time to stop and move into something else. JJ kinda said they were running out of steam for his blog, anyway.
DeleteThen he could have at least given it a proper ending. What's more, he could have had the motherfucking decency to just come out to his fans, and thank them for all the support he had given them for the molestia comic after ending it. But he didn't do any of that. He didn't say thanks, he didn't give some kind of note; he could have done that, just.....SOMETHING. *ANYTHING* By not even telling fans what happened, let alone a thank you, he just pretty much gave a big FUCK YOU to all the fans who helped him get the notoriety he gained in the first place. That's the way I see it. I would not have been bitching if he had at least thanked us. If John Joseco does stumble upon this, by chance: YOU'RE WELCOME, YOU UNGRATEFUL FUCK!
DeleteFuck off, SJW-anon. There is no problem. No fandom is fucking owed anything. Thanking the fans is just a nicety that creators can give if they feel it's warranted. And if you're an accurate representation of the Molestia fandom, then it was not warranted, and he was right to tell you all to go fuck yourselves. I know you have a massive hate-stiffie for for the guy, but stop being a fucking entitled brat and acting like you were doing him a huge favour by reading the free entertainment he made for you.
DeleteJust remember that, asshole, when YOU become a content creator, and say, "Piss off, I do what I want." If you piss off your fans, you get nothing. Deprive an artist of his best paying customers; his true blue fans, the artist will have NOTHING. An artist is NOTHING without support. Whether you or JJ himself wants to acknowledge it or not since YOU are being completely delusional, anon, John Joseco isn't SHIT without us, his fans. That's a fucking fact.
Delete>Deprive an artist of his best paying customers; his true blue fans, the artist will have NOTHING. An artist is NOTHING without support.
DeleteYou're seriously doing this, aren't you? You're seriously acting like JJ loses something if he loses you. Newsflash, guy: You don't fucking pay him shit. JJ does most of his work for fun, and if we are entertained, that's a bonus. If he's not having fun, then he's getting literally nothing out of the whole arrangement. And being an actual content creator myself, I can tell you that my idea of fun is definitely NOT to work on a time-consuming project for free, to have to throw it out due to circumstances beyond my control, and then to have some whiny cunt tell me that I don't appreciate THEM enough for taking the thirty seconds a day to read it.
Your support is WORTHLESS to JJ. YOU are worthless to JJ. Maybe if his whole fandom ALL left him, he might have a problem, but that hasn't happened, and it's not going to. Most of JJ's fans are still with him, because evidently most of them aren't overly-demanding sperglords like you are. If what JJ did with Molestia was indeed him saying, "Piss off, I do what I want," then everyone else has clearly responded, "Okay. Cool." Which is exactly the right response, because JJ is not our fucking art slave, and treating him as one is disgusting to me.
I'm not treating him like an art slave. Just asking for a fucking thank you for supporting him and his work. Just that he could have told us what the fuck happened.
DeleteNobody else seems to expect JJ to thank all his fans with every new post. What makes you special? What have you done for the guy? I certainly wouldn't thank you if I were JJ. I'd be rather uncomfortable around you, actually. I'd wonder what I did to attract such supreme autism, and I'd invest in additional home security in case you found my address.
DeleteI'm not a person who engages in stalking. Not in the least; that's what liberals do.
Delete>that's what liberals do.
DeleteAlan Moore tells everyone to piss off, and hey, big surprise, apparently this works wonders for content creators. Maybe they all need to learn a bit from Moore, especially with regard to dealing with SJW twats and unpleasable comicbookguy fans.
DeleteHow much longer until SJW-anon gets his own Cringe Corner entry?
ReplyDeleteHe needs one. Badly. This autist has been sperging all over the comments for days now.
DeleteWhaaaa. My pussy hurts.
DeleteHe's in a lot of /mlp/ threads too. You can tell by the random insertions of slander towards JJ.
DeleteYep. SJW-anon definitely sounds like a creepy obsessed maniac.
DeleteThe only thing I'm "obsessed" with, is having our rights preserved. The lot of you, from Capper General, to the lowly commentators in this section are a bunch of fucking wastes of space, because you are all missing the bigger picture. This is a constant reminder that this is a reduction of our liberties and a reduction of our freedoms and an even bigger reminder that Hasbro lawyers can fuck with all of us(John Joseco included), any time they want. As long as we put up with it.......as long as we put up with it.
DeleteAre you on that time of month again?
Delete>muh rights
DeleteYou'd think he'd of learnt by now that no one agrees with his crazy sperg obession with JJ.
ReplyDeleteBut nope he must have made about 3 dozen comments on horse-news alone each as autistic as the last. Honestly the comments section have more drama than the actual articles. It's kind of fun actually.
Which is kinda weird, when you think about it. Any Horse News commenter whose been around for long enough should remember Aoshi and Wwwarea, and how their shitfits in the comments made them laughingstocks around here. You'd think that most HN anons would know better than to follow in their footsteps.
DeleteIt's like SJW-anon had a bad experience with JJ or something. Maybe senpai didn't notice him at a convention.
DeletePersonally, I think he had a huge man-crush on JJ, came out and declared his love for him, and then got shot down. Doesn't SJW-anon come off like a crazy ex-girlfriend to you? Because that's definitely the vibe I get.
