Description This is what happens when you don't market your movie properly. Or more like when you get screwed over by the foreign distribution company.

EDIT - 8/9/2012: Huh? What's with all the messages on my folder? Wait a minute, why is everyone comenting on this comic? Oh no, you are not telling me that...*goes to check EqD* SETHIS-TOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Seriously though, thank you for featuring my comic! Again ^_^; But hey, this has actually given me a chance to correct a few mistakes and edit a few things out. Thanks for pointing out the errors on AJ's speech. I also noticed that the word "bunnies" was missing a letter, fixed that too.

I have never done something that got over three thousand views in like seven years. This got more than nine thousand, just today (8/9/12). I am flabergasted. Thank you so much <3

Watership Down is a fucking awesome movie and it traumatized the fuck out of so many kids it's hilarious.

Sooo, Fluttershy should probably watch Felidae, the protagonists are cute kittens. That might be something she'd enjoy. *shifty eyes*
In all seriousness, good work. I've seen that reaktion a number of times irl.

Next, Rarity takes the gang to see Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, a touching tale of a hairstylest who treats split-ends. Not.

Holy crap. That last panel. This is the first time I've ever wanted to give Fluttershy a hug - a comforting one at that.

I discovered Watership Down while I was reading Stephen King REAL Magnus Opus "The Stand". It is actually MLP:FiM big brother.

This is almost exactly what happened to me, except that I was a mix of Rainbow and Rarity. The emotional scarring didn't set in until later.

I can't tell if Fluttershy is Discorded in that last panel, or WILTING! Not emotionally wilting, but actual "Rotting on the Vine" wilting!

And yes, that movie was the sum total of all awe. /)^3^(\

She was probably drained of any semblance of happiness. Flush?

I laughed at the end. Poor Fluttershy.

PYTEEMEE In reply to ??? [2012-08-09 19:39:25 +0000 UTC]

Why does no one read the book? I read the book endlessly before I even heard there was a movie. And I have to say, the movie doesn't do it nearly enough justice. Several fantastic characters and plotlines were taken out and I would even go so far as to say the movie watered down the violence quite a bit.

Tigershard-R In reply to PYTEEMEE [2012-08-09 19:44:04 +0000 UTC]

You could say it "water-shipped down" the violence.

I love "Watership Down" and the legendary Black Rabbit of Inle because it's full with tons of symbolism.
