Watching Birds of Prey today... Spoiler There’s a scene where Harley Quinn “pinkie swears”, and even says “Cross my heart and hope to fly” (she gets cut off before she can continue). There are also some moments where she shoots some enemies with confetti bullets from her Fun Gun.
And that film's a twin entry to this thread as well, given the Birds of Prey comics were written for a long time by Gail Simone.
Whilst in town for a job interview I actually saw a poster advertising Taco Tuesday for one of the nearby eateries.
I recently started watching the English-language dub of InuYasha on More4, and the main character's mother is voiced by Cathy Weseluck.
I highly doubt it, because I've checked More4's schedule and I don't see InuYasha anywhere in the coming week. I've also checked all the other Channel 4 channels and no luck there. I've even gone as far as to check ITV4 and still no luck. I even performed a search for it on my set-top box, first with Inu, then with Yasha, and InuYasha didn't turn up at all. This didn't really happen, did it?
Just watched Undercover Boss on Channel 4, it was the CEO of Build a Bear with our pones featuring in several scenes, in particular when she visits the distribution centre undercover and at the reception there is a herd of MLP BaBs on the desk.
The mobile game Transformers Earth Wars is doing a April fools prank claiming that they are doing a crossover with MLP. I wish it was a real thing.
Well, you see, the thing about that... Spoiler That's actually gonna be happening... in the IDW comics.
Someone across the road from me is putting out a lot of various items that are free to good homes. I believe they are clearing themselves out in preparation for moving house once the lockdown is over. Anyway, one of those items is a chocolate fountain, which I can never look at without thinking of this scene: Spoiler
7:20-7:32 "It's easy when in a middle of a storm to think, 'Wow, this is going to change everything forever!' But, when the weather clears, people just go back to their regular lives and it's always 'Dear Princess Celestia, I didn't learn a thing.'"
Just came here to post the same thing! Not the first time CGP Grey has made a Pony reference but this is one of the more overt.
I went into town last week and saw a little girl wearing a Rainbow Dash mask. The 20% cooler way to fight Covid.
On a bus ride home today I noticed a sign that said "Bridleway Closed". Guess I'll still have to wait a bit longer to see Hinny of the Hills.
Report on BBC News about Brexit possibly breaking international law. Reporter says something along the lines of, "if one word could sum up the current mood, it would be 'discord'." Uh, do not besmirch our favourite chaos spirit's name by associating him with that mess!
His earlier videos had quite a lot of overt references (some probably now lost to time after YouTube got rid of annotations), but this is the first one I can recall happening for quite some time.
There have been some very subtle ones in more recent videos as well. I think he linked all those annotation videos in the descriptions when they got rid of them so they should still be available.
