PMV: Where do they make balloons / Spike's Esteem



I'm not even sure how to categorize the first one. It's... crazy?

1.) [Mashup + PMV] Just Lose It: Electro Mix
2.) Spike's Esteem
3.) "Where do they make balloons?" PMV

Lyra wouldn't be able to stay in shoes if she had hooves though. Would she?

Robo-Dale said...

just the thumbnail image for #1 implies greatness

@Dublio

Hence the trouble she's having, I think. Interestingly enough, Rarity wears heels to the gala. I'm really not sure how those stayed on! (magic?)

Zenhoof the Wise said...

As my favorite band and my favorite show, TMBG and MLP just go together so well.

StrangeNoise said...

It's been bugging me for a while actually: with no other signs of a petrochemical industry where *do* they make balloons? Specifically party balloons; I think the hot air balloon would be silk or something.

Inquiring Minds Must Know!

#1 Sorry, but my love and toleration prevents me from saying anything
#2 Great scenes, shame I don't like the music :(
#3 One of the best fitting things I have ever seen. You win :)

@ponydoraprancypants

Ponies. That's how :)

ThemsAllTook said...

The PMV posts here are pretty hit or miss sometimes, but all three of these were quite good.

Xalugami said...

These were interesting...
I feel so strange commenting, I've been lurking here for a long time; here's hoping this works.
Hello everypony.

SgtGarand said...

#1 Lmao, oh Gawd I need that laugh. SpikexRarityPillow xD
#2 I remember seeing this in the Anthology. It's cool it has a full version.
#3 They make balloons in Equestria, problem solved. Thanks Pinkie Pie

EphemeralBlue said...

Why?! Why is Mic good at everything?!

ZeroLink3D said...

#1 What has science done?!?!?!
#2 Once again, my day just gets better thx to ponies and The Offspring. :)
#3 Cute song, good scene work. A well done PMV. (Needs moar Pinkie though :P)

Harwick said...

Howdy Xalugami. Looks like the commenting worked just fine.

Poor Spike in #2. #1 was frightening, though it did make me laugh more than once. #3 was just plain charming.

NOFURR said...

Will the person who is legitimately referred to as Slim Shady, please rise to a non sedative position?

septicartblogger said...

#1 THAT WAS BEAST!
#2 .....meh....
#3 Very intersting song. Plus it's cute.

LoreleiHI said...

Yay! They Might Be Giants PMV!

Where Do They Make Ballons has always been a favorite song of mine, and that PMV is just great. Pinkie works so well! /happiness

@StrangeNoise
Prior to the invention of rubber balloons by Michael Faraday in 1824, balloons were made from pig bladders and animal intestines.

mahbrony said...

One worked WAY too well haha

LimeyLassen said...

@DJ Ale

Aha! So that's why they keep pigs.

Looks like this mystery has been...

*pause*

DEFLATED

#1 Eminem? Oh goodness. lol I used to listen to his stuff way back when he first made it onto the music scene. And I have that song too. Yes, Octavia has that song. >.>; But I loved that video, I must say. Definitely entertaining to watch. <3

#2 Eh, okay I guess. Song is alright. Not particularly fond of it, but the video is alright.

#3 That's a rather cute song. And the video matched it well too it seems.

@DJ Ale

Explains a lot about "Cupcakes" fanfic actually... Pinkie Pie goes through lots of balloons.

Apparently Ponyville has tree sap harvesting in "Fall Weather Friends" they don't specifically show where it's used. The elasticity of the sap shown as Rainbow Dash uses it to launch herself leads me to believe it's not for syrup, but for natural rubber production.

Zamoonda said...

Author of Spike's Esteem here. Now to think about what PMV should I make next.

Any suggestions?

DreamChaser said...

Dat first is sure catchy one, can't stop replaying.
Also nice vids :)

Lazerboy5000 said...

The Offspring!!! Yes, what a great combination between Spike and Rarity!

Lite Sparkle said...

@Zamoonda

Maybe the Beastie Boys & Kerry King with No Sleep 'Till Brooklyn

and find a clever title.

No Sleep 'Till Equestria or something.

also for names i can only come up with something for the beastie boys: the beastie colts.

coming up with a ponified name for Kerry King is hard, the only thing i can think of is hairy King,

BeckyLikesOwls said...

I love it when my favorite fandoms come together... <3 TMBG!

David said...

Mic, nice job again on the first one. Dear god it was hilarious and so well synced.

bronydash said...

@Zamoonda This was awesome. Ever since I discovered the Offspring, they've been in my top 3, and seeing MLP paired with a classic song off of "Smash" just made my day. If you don't mind doing more Offspring, I think Half-Truism, Nothingtown, or Stuff is Messed Up would work pretty well, but Lesson Zero (along with all the other moments when the ponies lose it) fits perfectly with Let's Hear It For Rock Bottom. Besides that, some ideas I thought about doing myself were Paramore - Brick by Boring Brick, 30 seconds to mars - Closer to the edge, Atreyu - Blow (I think that one could be Dash's theme song, lol.), AFI -Totalimmortal, Breaking Benjamin - Simple Design, Sum 41 - Pieces, A Day To Remember - All Signs Point To Lauderdale, Yellowcard - Holly Wood Died, My Chemical Romance - The Kids From Yesterday, Trapt - Headstrong (again, good theme song for Dash). Sorry, I've rambled a lot, but I hope I gave you at least one good idea in there. :P

TheDisturbedOne said...

#1 isn't my cup of tea, but nice to see it got on ED, Mic should be happy.

Copper Plate said...

It is official. We now need more Ponies with They Might Be Giants.

Somepony said...

The first one's music took alil' getting used to but Spike with Offspring and the Balloon song was simply outstanding!

StrangeNoise said...

Inquiring Minds have been Answered. To a sufficient level of plausibility anyway. I love this fandom. :-)

Lunar Solace said...

*Hipster Glasses* I liked They Might Be Giants before PMV's were made featuring them.

Michael Lewis said...

Balloons must be from Constantinople. HOW DOES NOPONY SEE THAT?!?!

Copper Plate said...

@Lunar Solace

Can I use those when you're done with them?

Senior Waffles said...

Spike's Esteem wins the whole bucking internet! Great song, great image matchup. Plus, Rarity is best pony (mane six) who apparently can get any pony she wants and likes em angry.

Senior Waffles said...

Holy crap #1 was too funny. The internet is a wonderful thing.
#3 Barking comes from dogs!? Mind = blown

Wierdplatformer said...

1. Um... k?

2. Cheer up, Spike!

3. Relaxing balloons are relaxing.

@Copper Plate

Happy to provide it

@bronydash

Thanks! And thanks for all the names, I love The Offspring, but it appears some here aren't fans of it. I think I'll definitely pick one of those as my next PMV, and then I'll go find some other band to suite the rest of the guys who don't like this sort of music. Thanks a lot! Though it may take time, I'm writing a fanfiction while doing this as well, and trying to learn to draw, hehe. Might be a week or two.

Mitchell Bonds said...

One is bizzare. I don't know what to think of it... but I think I like it.

Two is something I've wanted to see actually made into a full song since the Pony Anthology thing.

Three is adorable. Good choice of clips, too.

And now a super important public service announcement. Don't feed the Yao Guai! That is all.

Octane said...

#1 accidently the whole fandom.

Or something along those lines, can't brain right now.
