cultures compendium of reviews

Salutations readers and bronies alike. Welcome to Cultures Compendium of Reviews. Now, I know I usually start these things off with some cheerful introduction and a few rules of the blog. But, as this is not my typical material review or average general discussion I felt it necessary to keep things to the point. For those of you prone to emotional outbursts I implore you to have some tissues at the ready for today's topic might be a bit hard for some to accept given the current state of the fandom. That in mind here goes. So with the recent departure of Baltimore's esteemed Bronycon convention fans of MLP have been getting in gear for the upcoming finale of the series which was recently revealed in a trailer during the event. Now how fans in attendance reacted is up to the attendees and con staff. But, speaking from a social media standpoint, fans still aren't ready to let go. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic has been a staple in many peoples lives for the past 9...

Hey guys, Culture Shock here, your guide to all thing's pop cultural in Equestria and beyond. Normally I try to keep a chipper mood in my posts but as of lately, I've decided to tackle more serious issues out there instead. Just so I can get my opinion out there at the least.

Greetings to all my readers. I am Culture Shock, your guide to all things cultural in Equestria and beyond. Now, originally I was supposed to be talkign about the topic of bullying in and out of the mlp fandom, and I still will. However, I felt that with the current buzz going around I felt it important to cover this topic while I still could. Hence the reason I skipped my usual intro. As a reminder, this will all be based on opinion rather than complete fact so please don't feel you aren't entitled to your own interpretation. This is merely my own thoughts on what's coming and what might come next. Now sit back and relax while we go over the biggest topic in MLP today. The series finale of Friendship is Magic. First of all, I wanted to cover the biggest part. As we now, 2019 has been in full circle and with it comes the start of season 9 of Friendship is magic. So far, the show's managed to stretch an mpressive length with 8 seasons already finished. As well its I...
