I personally thought This Day was pretty lame/disappointing, and BBBFF was way better than it.

Burn.

Glad to know I wasn't the only one who picked up on that.
And another realization... there *might* be an 8-bit theater referance in it... recall what powers BM's Hadoken?

Meh. The idea is nebulous enough that them independently conceiving of the idea makes sense.
Plus, it was used in a different capacity than just funneling it into a big ol' energy beam. |

How can anyone have preferred BBBFF over This Day?
It didn't help that BBBFF appeared for no reason to replace actual speech, which is always terrible. Normal conversation to song to normal conversation with no scene changes is just annoying.

I didn't like it because all of a sudden Twilight has a brother she loves more than anybody that she never mentioned.

I wasn't a fan of BBBFF either--and, to be honest, This Day was only a little better, if you ask me. However, I do give huge props to Ingram for being very clever about it.

Maybe it was the visuals that made me really like This Day? I don't know. Something about it I felt really did well at portraying extreme malice on one end of it (Chrysalis's second verse in particular), and lots of desperation on the other side.
The fact that all of it was apparently the same singer is a nice touch. |
