Okay, okay, you can stop emailing us about this now! You win FimFlam!
After the break, feel free to indulge in some Rainbow Dash Presents: Totally Not Rainbow Factory. Or whatever the heck this is.
I guess this means these are escaping the roundup from now on! -Sethupdatedatintro

VastaKustutaHorray! And on the same day it was released.
VastaKustutaVictory
VastaKustutaHuzzah! Saw it earlier, but I'm glad it got posted, you see? Bitching DOES work! Hooray!
VastaKustuta...FimFlam.
VastaKustutaWow, saw this on Tumblr earlier, laughed so hard I scared my dog. Awesome
VastaKustutaI just started this and there's no way I'm stopping.
VastaKustutaYesss! They posted it!
VastaKustutaSweet, didn't expect to see this so soon!
VastaKustutaHUZZAH! VICTORY FOR FLIMFLAM!
VastaKustutaHahaha! Love these! Glad it finally made its way in. Honestly the best retelling of parodies in existence.
VastaKustutaYes! This is so freaking amazing!
VastaKustutaOh wow at that beginning, laughed way too hard.
VastaKustutaYes. The best fan contributor to ANYTHING Pony makes a magnificent return.
VastaKustutaIt's really terrible that it took what needed to be said by him for you guys to give him the nod though. Because he's absolutely correct, and he's not the only one who feels that way

VastaKustutaLMFAO ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC XD
VastaKustutahehe...did you even watch it Cereal?
VastaKustutaFiM Flam emerges victorious! Epic!
VastaKustutaThere's cookies and punch by the door.
VastaKustutaI know it's weird I'm saying this, but I LOVE YOU FOR POSTING THIS EQD!!! THANK YOU!!! XDDDDDDD
VastaKustutaI just watched only the 1st minute of the 30 and that talk about changing the title caught me by surprise. I RUN to EqD, and no, of course something so obvious wouldn't trick them, but IT GOT ON!!!
I'm such a fan of these guys and THANK YOU, GODDAMN IT!!!
DAT INTRO...
VastaKustutaTwo steps away from Home Movies
VastaKustutaso this vid mocks this site, and yet during the post showing the video, said mocking is not adressed. k
VastaKustuta@Spongey444
VastaKustutaif you think about it this proves this site to be alot less egotistical the FimFlam and alot of people in his videos comments considered it to be
Trixie approves, yes!
VastaKustutalet me try to decihper that comment.
VastaKustutathis proves EQD is /less/ egotistical? or do you mean more? sorry, there's some confusion regarding the spelling of your comment...
@Spongey444
VastaKustutaWe thought it was funny :p
awweeesome. and lol @ strongbad masked pony at 16:15
VastaKustutaWe're (mostly) mature men and women. I would like to think that we can handle some light satire.
VastaKustutaSeth has already shown that he can.
@Spongey444
VastaKustutaum i meant less, i for some reason also posted that as my old account
Success!
VastaKustutaPetirep here.
I sincerely thank y'all for featuring this. Trixie Variety show ftw!
Vipera
VastaKustutaBeat me by a minute there, Sethisto.
Oh. My. Goodness.
VastaKustutaThis was SO SO SO freaking good.... LotHT references ftw!
Suscribed.
I have to admit, I laughed. I don't like myself right now, but I laughed.
VastaKustutaThis was definitely an interesting interpretation, but still not touching the original.
I think EqD are pretty good sports for putting this up and not making a fuss over it.
VastaKustutaHonestly, this is probably the funniest pony video I've seen in a while. It had a good plot. I haven't even read Rainbow Factory (though I did have a general idea what it was about) and I was still able to follow what was going on, which is what any good parody should do: be funny if you're aware of the source material, but still stand on its own merits if you don't.
It was very well written, all the characters (even the one-off ocs from the fanfic itself) had a lot of personality.
I've been a fan of the Mentally Advanced series and Rainbow Dash Presents from the beginning, but this makes me have a whole new respect for FimFlam and his team. You can just tell a ton of work went into every aspect of this. The writing, the song, the art and animation, it's really great to see that much work in a pony video. Great job guys. You're awesome.
That was 1000x times better than actual Rainbow Factory.
VastaKustutaNo offense to Aurora Dawn however.
I really love these stories, an I just read Rainbow Factory itself.
VastaKustutaNot scard from it at all
We can always laugh at ourself for being ourself
ah, glad that's all cleared up then.
VastaKustutai've always liked this abridged series the most tbh
Bout time this fic got some mockery =3
VastaKustutaI am so glad that this got it's own post.
VastaKustutaI absolutely loved this vid.
Legend of the hidden temple reference for the win.
VastaKustutahaha sweet I've been following these guys since episode one. Glad to see them get some recognition! :D:D:D
VastaKustutaTrixie Variety show. eeyep.
VastaKustutaThat is definitely why I'm subscribed to his channel.
Hahaha. That's clever.
VastaKustutaThe mocking, on the other hand, is just silly and immature.
saw this earlier glad you posted it
VastaKustutaLeast NO PONY died...it was funny
VastaKustutaDear Princess Celestia, today I learned that there are many different ways to judge quality. Something that may seem amateurish and worthless to one pony may hold a wealth of meaning and entertainment to another. We grow when we expose ourselves to things beyond our comfort zones. That's why we need to accommodate different tastes within the community. Thanks to sites such as this one, my musical horizons have expanded through PMVs. Not everypony has to like the same things, but we can always love and tolerate the tastes of those with whom we disagree. Your faithful student, Birthday Brony
VastaKustuta@Xeiros
VastaKustutaI knew I remembered that temple escape plan thing from somewhere. Thanks.
Just...
VastaKustuta...
Wat.
@TechnoTrot
VastaKustutaActually, it is completely justified and 100% true.
To anyone reading, I know how it looks, but this video is hilarious XD
VastaKustutaMexican Pinkie Pie is best pony.
I like these vids! Especially when I've actually read the fic they're parodying.
VastaKustutaThat was amazing. We remember Legends of the hidden temple too!
VastaKustutaIs this the ... whatever this is, it's hilarious.
VastaKustuta@Cap-Sigma
VastaKustutaActually I didn't see the StrongBad mask, but I did get the Blubbo's reference (same website, way more obscure lol)
Someone needs to make a "Trixie Variety Show" banner for EqD.
VastaKustuta@Petirep
VastaKustutaYou guys did a great job on this. I'm subscribing to your channel :)
I like to see how quality can show in different ways. Sure, the animations not anything like Epic Pie Time, but the length of the video and hordes of jokes far more than make up for it.
lol xD Glad they finally got an official shoutout. I've loved all of FimFlamFilosophy's work.
VastaKustutaWhat did I just watch?
VastaKustutaHonestly though, good effort, but the humor is all over the place. There were moments I grinned and almost laughed, but it really drug on too long.
By the end wasn't funny to me, I was bored and annoyed, oh well. Everyone has an opinion.
Hidden Temple reference and the Blubb-o's whale? MY LIFE IS COMPLETE! FIMFLAM TAKE ALL MY PONIES!
VastaKustutaOh my Celestia! Legends of The Hidden Temple reference, and I CAUGHT IT!! XDD
VastaKustuta@Blayze Kohime
VastaKustuta^^^^^^^^ This!
I will worship this site forever if I come here to find "Trixie Variety Show" as the banner :D
Talk about making a complete mockery of Rainbow Factory. This turned something gory into something that had me chuckling every minute of it. This was such a fantastic video. Totally enjoyed it.
VastaKustutaoh. my. god. I remember watching that show that Sweetie belle parodied with the directions
VastaKustutaSomeone fill me in, what's the whole issue between the Rainbow Dash Presents series and EQD?
VastaKustutaYesss, this got posted here. I love FimFlam's work, and it's good to see it recognized. Props to EqD for giving it a post of its own.
VastaKustutaI'm curious about that too. Is that really how the selection process works?
VastaKustutaIf you guys enjoyed this one, -hear me out first- you should check out FimFlam's RD Presents Cupcakes. It's like this, nothing really bad is shown, and what is shown is humorous. These guys do a really good job of taking notoriously disturbing fanfics and make them funny. Truly giggling at the ghosty, so to speak.
VastaKustuta@TechnoTrot
VastaKustutaI didn't care much, I just thought it was funny. It fact, best part in the whole thing. That funny.
Even though I never read Rainbow Factory, I found it funny.
VastaKustutaAmazing work everypony! This deserves to be on EqD! ^.^ I'm a super huge fan of all RDP, and they all deserve to get a ton of attention! ;p
VastaKustutaThis shit is awesome. You guys are so awesome for posting this instead of SHED.MOV.
VastaKustutaThe random voices combined with the adorable pictures is just awesome. Also, Firefly and Surprise cameos FTW!
8:39 "Sever your leg, please. It's the greatest day!"
Also, Legend of the Hidden Temple, holy cow, so much nostalgia! I ESPECIALLY love the inside joke how no one can figure out how to get past "The Shrine of the Sliver Monkey", even though it's, like, the easiest chamber.
Legend of the Hidden Temple YEEAAAAYYYYAAA!!!
VastaKustutaThat was definitely a good watch, makes me want to actually read the fanfic.
Fantastic! Absolutely fantastic! I laughed till I cried. That poor puppy.
VastaKustutaWoohoo! Way to get posted; loved it when i saw it 6 hours ago
VastaKustutaVideo was really funny (though pacing was a bit bumpy and long). Lots of meme fodder, hand-drawn frames, songs and references. I can certainly see why they were pining to get properly posted.
VastaKustutaOn the other hand, the tongue-in-cheek EqD slam at the beginning, eh... True, it is the "job" of the EqD staff to filter through all of the pony content out there and hand-pick all the gems, but on the other hand running the site is just a hobby for them. And yes, you can act professional regarding your volunteer work, yet I hold them to a lower standard than a place that actually has paid full-time employees. I guess I'm trying to say, yes EqD missed a good series, but I'm also willing to cut them some slack. Kudos to both sides for keeping a sense of humor about it, though.
...I too thought Twilight knew Linux ( ._.)
Also maybe I'm completely offbase... Wouldn't being part of the Roundup post be considered a bigger honor than being lumped into a a Video post with 3-4 other videos? Both would be inferior to a solo post like this one, sure, but I was surprised that they felt slighted by featuring in the Roundups... *shrug*
VastaKustutaI love Rainbow Dash Presents. Absolutely silly, nonsensical and very fun. it really helps if you've read the fics they're parodying though. Because it becomes very run-on and off-topic as it were. It especially makes light-hearted fun of the darker fics. My favorite still being the Cupcakes episode.
VastaKustuta@Pav Feira
VastaKustutaJust the fact that I've never heard of these guys before at least tells me that stuff in roundups is sometimes easy to miss. Then again, I'm not usually very observant.
Btw, the "bashing" at the beginning wasn't that bad. There was nothing in there that was 'below the belt' or offensive. Insults are one thing but satire is all in good fun.
I kept thinking about Thrakazog, from The Tick.
VastaKustuta@Pav Feira The problem wasn't that they were in the roundups, but as footnotes in the roundups. To give you an idea of the type of attention a video gets when they do that, a friend of mine and me made two videos that got posted on the site, they were the two princess Celestia letters that the TF2 sniper and GLaDOS read. One got it's own post and has over 100k views, the other was a footnote and has less the 10k views last time I checked(though that may also have to do with people watching the GlaDOS-fied version instead). If it's part of a series of vids then it will at least have it's name in the title or in a list before the break though, and will probably get more attention then if it were part of the nightly roundups.
VastaKustuta@Beta-Carotenereally? You mean you never watched the mentally advanced abridged series either?
VastaKustuta@Flutterboss Ah, didn't realize that. I stand corrected.
VastaKustuta@Beta-Carotene oh ya. Epic Pie Time uses flash. I do hand drawn with an iPad, not even comparable as fare as animations.
VastaKustutabut I like to think hand drawn animation has a little more heart... but that's just my biased opinion ;)
It's funny, back when he did Bubbles, I was pretty much thinking meh. Now I watch this and many a hearty laugh was to be had. I feel I have misjudged, how shameful.
VastaKustutaWell. It was about 15 minutes too long. The middle was very zzzzzzzzz worthy. But you _are_ doing a really shitty fanfic, so I guess you work with what ya got?
VastaKustutaThis version is much better than the origional.
VastaKustutaOh dear lord that was...Hilarious. But thanks. I now have a red mark on my forehead from the legend of the hidden temple bit. I'm surprised my desk doesn't have a dent in it from all the facedesks I did. I needed that. thanks
VastaKustutaOh Celestia that was amazing. I like this version a lot better.
VastaKustutaHaving read Rainbow Factory some time ago, and not having the faintest idea what on Earth I was watching, I was a little anxious about this. But am I ever so relieved to find this to be a hilarious gem. The images were endearing and captured the characters well, the voices were great and often hilarious, and the parody storyline was crammed with jokes and a cheerful vibe to it.
VastaKustutaThis is the sort of parody I crave, something that doesn't resort to the easy route of gore, over-the-top racism, and lame jokes such as what the .MOV series has become. This went the extra mile to keep things more or less clean, keep things upbeat and silly, while firing a thousand different jokes and gags for the whole video.
My personal favourites were Scootaloo's character (the silly, flirty behaviour just worked), the part with "GET IN ZE VAN", and the part with the two Sweetie Belles saying "The head is on backwards!".
So yeah. This was amazing. The humor is strangely reminiscent of Invader Zim and Teen Girl Squad. The opening and the part with the puppy and Sweetie Belle's voice were crack ups.
VastaKustutaThis was quite amusing 8D
VastaKustuta*First 5 to 10 minutes*
VastaKustutaWHAT IS THIS I DON'T EVEN!?!?!
*LotHT reference*
HNNNNNNGG GOD THIS IS BUCKING AMAZING!!!!
*Just before the credits*
Not sure if I wasted the last half hour
*After credits*
WAT?
*After skimming through EqD comments*
OOOOOOoooooooooh, they're making fun of a fanfic. KAY!
Ah, some Rainbow Dash Presents. This should be good. I'm only a few minutes into it right now and I love Sweetie Belle's manly voice. lol And is that WoodenToaster's OC? Hah. Nice.
VastaKustutaIs that....is that a Legends of the Hidden Temple reference near the end?
VastaKustutaI love this so much.
why did I watch this?
VastaKustutafollow up question, why did I watch it two mores times after the first time?
I.....Wha?.....umm....i don't know what to say...
VastaKustutathis was ....sssssstupidly...awesome!!! but my iq is just.....like gone.
I just finished watching the entire thing. Man, was that ever glorious. lol
VastaKustutaLoved it,
VastaKustutaFrankly it's ending improves the original Rainbow Factory.
But Rainbow Factory, WAS a parody, so this is a parody of a parody...oh wow, they closed the circle, so in parodying a parody, they turned it back to the warm hearted joke filled, pony centric story that. I think I just broke something in my mind.
(P.S. Rainbows little dance when she was trying to sing was cute)
Wow. This really took the cake. Dat intro, best way to hook someone to sit through the rest of the half-hour vid. I only got one reference, the Legends of the Hidden Temple, but so many memories! I was using earphones and my sister was "is there something wrong with you?" because I was grinning so much. Characters are funny as usual, and the dialogue is great. Only gripe I can come up with is the song - I couldn't understand half of it. I'm holding out for the lyrics list so that i can enjoy it in its magnificence.
VastaKustutaAh, fantastic. I've been waiting for the next one of these.
VastaKustutaIf anypony hasn't seen the other RD Presents videos (and obviously the Mentally Advanced abridged series), do yourself a favour and watch them RIGHT NOW!
I think that it's pretty bad that FiMFlam had make satire out of himself just to point out how little recognition he was gettin, considering how good his stuff is.
VastaKustutaThere's one thing that's always annoyed me on this site and in the fandom in general. That being that people treat Friendship is Witchcraft as the "official" abridged series. The very latest episode was good yeah and the one before it had Pinkie's Brew (pretty much the only highlight) but the one before that were pretty weak. FiMFlam has put out so much more content and it's all high quality humour.
I always wondered why such as awesome series was never featured on The Trixie Variety Show.
VastaKustutaThis is so awesome XD I couldnt stop laughing.
VastaKustutaThis is just bizzarely awesome. Loved it!
VastaKustuta17:52 Regulation of le internet (S.O.P.A. btw) lol
VastaKustutaFiW is a lot better but I think the Rainbow Dash Presents/Mentally Advanced are notable enough to get solo entries too. Also I haven't seen Shed.mov get a post but maybe that's just because it's so gory.
VastaKustutaI haven't read Rainbow Factory but I have seen and heard the music and PMVs that were inspired from the fan fic and I do have a vidid imaganation so I know what I was getting into with this. I thought it was a great parody of the fic and the references were great. I am going to look at his other videos now.
VastaKustutajust wanted to say thanks for posting Rainbow Dash Presents on the main page this time <3
VastaKustutaI know the whole Rainbow Factory thing is a big turn off for ya and you didn't want to post it, but on behalf of the fans of RDP, thank you Seth we love you for your lead example of Tolerance.
We need to pass on more of that Love ansd Tolerance through the community more often, god knows people still flip out over things like that fic you posted! (which isn't actually all that bad now except it mentions Drug dealers/addicts which is like my only real main complaint about it really. Drugs in Equestria no thank you.)
ANYWAYS thanks for being awesome and tolerating FimFlams videos and all the other people who send in good works, even if they can be a bit bordderline some times <3

Mexican wrestler singing ?
PONY AIDS ?!
Marvellous ! You sir have made my day !
What the hell did I just watch? O.o
VastaKustuta@DCJoeDog Sounds like a totalitarian Equestria to me...
VastaKustutaFor anyone confused about the characters in this, watch FiMFlam's mentally advanced series and the previous RDPs. They are all awesome.
VastaKustutaGod.... The part about giving omalley (or what evs his name was) the puppy and the pic of his family and the crayons to makr the process go better and not be so scary/sad....... I lost it hahaha that was sooooo hilarious to me.... Haha and dash crying in the bathroom hahaha
VastaKustutaHehe, I loved the Cupcakes parody so I'll definitely watch this!
VastaKustutaYou have failed me, No Fanfiction Mode. :|
VastaKustutaRainbow Factory was a terrible, stupid, cliched fic.
VastaKustutaThis, on the other hand, is FREAKING AWESOME. A huge brohoof to EqD for realizing the brilliance of this series and featuring it!
What the Buck was that? It was hilarious... but I'm not sure why...
VastaKustuta@Xalgoz FiW started much later and honestly from like 3 and up especially episode 6 Mentally advance series pretty much dwarfs anything I seen and heard in FiW.
VastaKustutayeah Seth prefers female voice overs but Mentally Advance series has always deserved a spot on the page imho, it's just they depict less cutesy wutsy and treat Fluttershy like a nuisance :P
SCREW FiW LONG LIVE THE FiMFlam BRO- I mean Filosophy! >XD
Also someone PLEASE make a Banner saying "Trxie's Variety Show" I demand it be featured for a day!
VastaKustutaIf anyone has not read Rainbow Factory, this will ruin it for them.
VastaKustutaIf anyone has read Rainbow Factory, this will be hilarious.
VastaKustutaZE CAT CAN'T STOP ME FROM WATCHING DIS!
VastaKustuta"Oh, man, we're going to pony hell for nothing!"
VastaKustutaAwesome. A Wizard People, Dear Reader reference. Yay for Dazler and his cat.
VastaKustutaFimFlam is best pony! Woohoo!
VastaKustuta"Hi, my name is Orion! Orion Comet! You can call me OC for short."
VastaKustuta-I lol'd
@Cap-Sigma I agree with Scootaloo about a pony threesome... >_____>
VastaKustuta@Earl Grey
VastaKustutaIt bothers me that people treat the two like they're in a battle to the death against each other. They're both good for different reasons.
There's more than enough room on the internet for both of them; It doesn't have to be a contest.
And who are you to say that one has more work put into it than the other? And how is that a merit for how good something is? I could put hours of effort into just making a character's arm move in Flash and it would look terrible, while an experienced animator could probably do the same thing in a minute and make it look amazing without breaking a sweat. One would take more effort and would look terrible. The other would take nearly no effort at all and would look great.
If you want to be helpful, you could give a list of specific details that you think could be improved and maybe even how they might be improved. Instead, you're being a fanboy who thinks one is better than the other because a character said so in the video.
TL;DR - You're not helping the problem.
Hilarious video. Your request to me loved admired for your creative works is accepted.
VastaKustutaSo, where's the cookies and punch again?
VastaKustuta
