To help cut down all the EqG threads, maybe we should have an official discussion thread. It's a lot closer than season 4 at least.

The synopsis is "When a crown is stolen from the Crystal Empire, Twilight Sparkle pursues the thief into an alternate world where she transforms into a teenage girl who must survive her biggest challenge yet… high school. With help from her new friends who remind her of Ponyville’s Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy, she embarks upon a quest to find the crown and change the destiny of these two parallel worlds."

The film will start being shown in theaters starting on June 16th.

I personally hope that, unless it's amazing, it bombs.

Not out of hate for it, but because, if it gets adapted into a series, it'll take resources away from FiM.

Doubtful. DHX has a lot of employees. I doubt that if EQG became a TV series that they'd force the FIM staff to do it. They'd probably just get some other "B-team" to work on it, especially seeing as the general style of it is a lot different than FIM. (from what Hasbro seems to be saying.)

no, because even i didnt said it,
Transformers "Energon Girls" have the actual prime optimus falling in a worm hole with the old spark, turning her in a teen age girls, and having to fight her worst challenge... High school.

The old spark is turned into the crown of the princess of the prom, so optimus have to learn to be a pretty girl and win it, with the help of the human girl version of all her autobots teammates, but she will have to defeate one of the lost megatron´s exgeneral.

if optimus fail, the 2 dimensions will be on danger.

>>2521394
Except Transformers and My Little Pony have completely different settings, genre, demographic, etc. which prevents that from being a fair, compatible analogy.

It'd be like trying to come up with a different idea for a MLP movie, like how in our world a girl named Megan Williams inherited a book from her grandmother about the legend of the Elements of Harmony. Then she finds herself caught up in an epic struggle between the ponies and the changelings, who came to our world to find the Elements. The ponies get Megan's help because the book contains a prophecy on where to find the Elements, which got sent to the human world. It turns out the military had found it along with Chrysalis' body, which was cryogenically frozen, back in the early 19th century, and built the Hoover dam to hide both. This leads to an all out brawl between the changelings vs. the ponies with the U.S. military. Buildings explode, changelings explode, and ponies explode! Twilight and Chrysalis fight, and just when Twilight is about to be killed, Meghan shoves the Elements down Chrysalis' throat, causing them and her to explode!

But in the end what people think of the idea won't matter once it has been released. Execution will be the part that matters and that's how people will judge the episode.

Anyway, I just feel MLP is more consistently good and has more aspects to it's world that I find interesting. (Also, aside from the dad and Mrs Twombly, not many human characters I really like or care about all that much.)

I still haven't seen the trailer, and I've been avoiding these threads like the plague, so forgive me if this has already been discussed to death, but there's one thing I really want to get out about this whole thing.

People say "If EqG sucks, let it suck. It's not like it affects canon at all." But there's one problem. It may not be the canon universe, but it is still canon Twilight. Here's what I mean. I don't really know anything about this "Brad" (again, haven't watched the trailer so just ignore me if I'm not making sense), but let's imagine the worst case scenario and say that Twilight bumps into him, they meet, and I dunno, Twilight gets googoo-eyed and things get romantic. This wouldn't be harmless to canon, it would mean that unless Twilight is really an anthrophile Twilight is that close to having a real love interest in canon. We'd have to accept that if Twilight bumped into an attractive pony under similar circumstances, the same thing could happen.

Now like I said, that's just the worst case scenario. But the underlying problem is still there. My woefully uninformed guess is that the chances of a romantic subplot is high, and more importantly the chances of Twilight being active in it is pretty close to 50/50. If that occurs, we'll have no choice but to accept that this is also true of Twilight in canon. It may never ever be touched upon in the show, or by the creators, but we'll know.

And before anyone gets on me about it, I'm not saying "It's terrible that it might be possible for Twilight to have romantic feelings", I'm saying that any romantic feelings she could gain for someone in the context of this movie would most likely be really stupid and underdeveloped, which would negatively affect Friendship is Magic by its mere possibility in canon.

Dulset Tarn !KelpieFM3Q 16 May 2013 17:18:44 GMT No.2521432

>>2521431
tl;dr Even if it's a non-canon spinoff, it's still canon Twilight, so anything revealed of her in EqG will be true in canon. Ergo, this movie can possibly have a negative effect on canon, even if nothing more than our perception of it.

even then i think bringing something like that could be a little forced and derail from the main story. and dont sound like something i could consider 100% necesary to add it to the accesories.

As long as they keep the shows separate, I wouldn't mind having a second show. I'd prefer to not have any other crossovers aside from the film, unless it was some kind of season finale episode for both shows.

It seems like Hasbro is pretty intent on selling Equestria Girls toys, and having their own TV show is a sure fire way to make kids want that. But what I don't understand is how they are going to handle the story of Equestria Girls after the film is over... Are they just going to have Twilight leave Equestria forever in one timeline, and return to Ponyville in another? Or will they do something like with the mirror pool where she can now be in both worlds at the same time?

I'm surprised so few people appreciate the fact that the show is getting a theatrical film. Even if it's not good, it's a statement of how big this show has gotten.

Yes, it's a limited release, but it's still theatrical. As I recall, the Aqua Teen Hunger Force movie had a similar release, and its fanbase was probably much smaller than that of MLPFIM.

It's you think taking the pony out of My Little Pony is exciting.
While I can understand where you're coming from, (taking the pony out of MLP is kinda crazy) when you get right down to it we don't even think of them as ponies, or pets, we think of them as equals, as four legged humans (Or hew-mans if you prefer) basically. If somehow I'd watched an episode and they were tortoises/turtles/whatever or birds or even dwarfs, I would have loved it all the same.

Ponies should stay ponies. Not be transformed into hairless apes with horrible mutant skin conditions just so Hasbro can ride the Pony Express into Monster High town. And if you support that, you're just giving Hasbro the green light to mess with it even more; or god forbid, actually have it canon to Friendship is Magic in the future.

Keep in mind they're basically setting out to do what MLP did, Make a good show in a place void (for the most part) of good ones. At least I think you're saying it's gonna suck.

I don't like the reasons behind it, and I don't like the attitude to the fandom that the business shows. I don't like the setting and how much it strips much of the original universe bare of what made it so likable and original to begin with.

It could be good, sure. But it's a good, "Let's strip down all of this good stuff and stick these characters in a completely unoriginal setting to try and reach the Monster High market" movie. I don't want to be involved with that.

so im going to be stereotypical and say just because is twilight sparkle doing what the monster high do, girls and woman will find it lovely and really fun, and include a lot of people who just think anything with ponies is perfect no matter what.

sure there is going to be some twist and stuff, i mean, i thought the lenght was going to be 3 episodes long, but it is 3 and a half... so i guess they can do stuff in the middle... but at the same time, is just the friking same high school scenario again. because you know, teen age girls dont like anything else, just use the same formula than has been use before.

I'm not getting the comparison or the implications. They were a few webisodes that came out near the end of G3.5 when they knew it would already be ending soon (since Lauren had already started work on FiM by then). And it was something they were doing for several brands, given that LPS also had webisodes back then too.

>>2521521
They only worked on Equestria Girls after they were finished with season 3, which looked like it had enough time to be worked on for a 13 episode season. And they wouldn't force the same team tow juggle between two shows, they'd just give the show to a different team to work on.

Do you even WATCH this show? Nearly every episode, ESPECIALLY season 1's stuff, was widly stereotypical. Oooh an episode about a race where characters learn that its not all about winning, oh hey one about trusting your friends even if they're acting a little funny, gee oh boy something about not judging a book by its over, oh woooow one about not being a picky whiner, real original territory. Except for the fact that FWF, SotC, BG, and SfS were all amazing, and NOT because of their premises.

The charm of this show from the beginning hasn't been in the unpredictably of the storylines, but in the extremely tight character design, development, and interactions, coupled with jokes both wild and subtle, and juuuuust enough moral fiber to make you think about your own life without turning it into an afterschool special.

Honestly I wonder if everyone that thinks this movie will undoubtedly fail and be awful even remember that this is a freaking My Little Pony board, and MLP for the past 30 years or whatever has had no business being interesting to anyone except 5 year old girls.

This might be something that's controversial to say, but I don't think the writers care as much about the show we might like to think sometimes. I think the original justification for s1 was, "We had to keep ourselves entertained, so we put in jokes we found funny."

I don't know. It seems like these scripts have been lacking for a while now. People have given a lot of explanations for this since season two, most of which was, "It was rushed because they had to make more stuff!"

But when you think about it, scripts...how much time do they really take to write?

When I went to both conventions last summer, I saw some show staff that seemed truly grateful for the community the show had spawned. Lee Tockar was the surprise highlight of the whole thing, who seemed to have a passion and a drive that I couldn't help but admire more than any other VA. Spike's VA was calm and professional, while....Tara Strong was Tara Strong.

There was always an undercurrent of awe from them, I feel, at just how awesome it was the whole event could happen. They had a lot of fun at the convention, and they were thankful for the chance.

...and then I see writers being flippant over twitter about things we care about, and a lot of subpar scripts, and I'm just not seeing the same drive and appreciation of just what a trip this whole thing is and how they can give back. ...well, from a few writers.

>>2521534

Because of why it was made. At least Hasbro went in to FiM saying, "Our sales are down. We need someone to come in and fix this." With this, it's more, "We have a successful property. Now let's take that universe and morph it into a high school drama to make a shit ton of money and try to reach a demographic we wouldn't otherwise/"

Shallow money grabs are shallow money grabs.

It was faster paced, every episode mattered less from a universe persepective, the episodes themselves were often made up by the writers individually, the characterization was more haphazard, it felt more like it was trying to fill the script with jokes than actually tell a compelling story.

What? An attempt to make money is an attempt to make money. I still don't get any of that mindset. Hasbro wanted more money, so they made MLP. Hasbro wanted more money, so they made EqG. Hasbro always wants to make more money. This is no indicator of the quality of the show in any way. The greatest films of all time have been made by a company who wanted to make some money.

>>2521540
If you look at the facts, it really was. They ran out of episode ideas towards the end and had to come up with them on the fly. The production may not have been, but some of it certainly was.

Faust created the show from the ground up. THEN Hasbro hired the staff to help her have it come alive. The groundwork for FiM is what ultimately made it successful, the groundwork for EqG is flawed. It's like building a skyscraper on a solid foundation and a toothpick respectively.
>>2521529
>>2521531
Newborn Cuties was a shallow attempt at selling baby dolls through the MLP IP. EqG is a shallow attempt at selling human dolls through the MLP IP. Faust went out of her way to make a show that was able to be enjoyed across gender and age barriers. Hasbro is trying to redirect their IP back towards specific and tighter-focused demographics.
>>2521535
They are staff. They earn salary. They have deadlines, contracts and work loads. Previously working on MLP FiM and tacking EqG on to try to follow in the footsteps will ultimately detract from both.

But with this, you know, I think you're right. The writers aren't out to change the world. They're not here to define society. They sure as hell weren't here to make some weird fringe adult demographic happy. They were there for a paycheck and to keep their jobs and please the corporate goons.

And, really, there's nothing wrong with that. We all gotta do it.

The fact that they made something special out of their daily grind is amazing, and if they can't always get everything right, especially when the original premise has become strangely bloated and warped (they are without a doubt at least ADDRESSING the adult segment now, if not catering to it, so that has changed things a bit) well, some days I suck at my job too.

I really think that is because fans constantly tell them (the writers) that they don't care and they (the writers) get mad because they actually still do.

I honestly would be fine with accepting criticism, but when 90% of your "criticism" tweets at you are "Thank you for ruining the show!" and "Im leaving! I can't take you running it into the ground" or "Its obvious that you don't care about the show so why should I" then I think I would get pissy too.

I don't think there's anything wrong with it either. They're not out to pander to us or keep us happy. Most of them, anyway. SOME of them want to do something cool with the show, and I deeply respect them.

But it's just a little disheartening when so many people involved do care about making this good, and the people who are actually in control...really don't.

>>2521544

Yeah. I don't understand how that's relevant to what I'm saying, though...

>>2521541

Characters....are characters, and all of them have been done before. That doesn't make them cliche. That makes them archetypes. That's different from what he's saying. Morals and characters are some of the things that are the most universal in media. He's talking about how just about...every element seems stereotypical.

I don't actually agree with him, to be honest, because from what I've heard, it seems like someone is trying to make it acceptable, but if it was, well, it would be more cliche and boring than FiM.

Nothing. as long as you speak in those general terms. I like that the Mario Party games were made, and even Mario Tennis. Those were all great games many people wouldn't have played without the Mario name attached.

But when you get into what property you're making and why, that's when things get a little fuzzy.

Faust was a nice person, and she did think it up, but a lot of shows that could have been good weren't because of execution.

Of course it's their focus! They know by now that the way to make money is to make quality shows. They aren't stupid. They experienced a huge, massive upsurge in popularity, rocketing MLP from a has been in to the strongest property out there just by investing a little TLC into the tie in TV show. They can't just ignore the fact. Just look at LPS. It's genuinely trying to ape the success of MLP, which is a good thing. It means that Hasbro knows exactly what's up. It means they know which goose laid the golden egg, and they are trying to genetically engineer it. If anything, they are acting more in favor of forwarding the cause of good animation than they were when they made MLP. When they made MLP, they were doing a token effort like Strawberry Shortcake and giving the artist who showed up at their door employment. With EqG, they are trying to make a good show first and then reveal the toys later. The show leads the sales.

And I am saying you are full of it, because fans of the shows thought it held a lot of promise, and many people saw the name Faust and were immediately thinking of, well, everything Faust has made or help made.

You might not have thought it could be good, but your generalization just shows your misinformation.

>>2521573
You have high hopes on Hasbro, a company known for essentially buying brands and companies, letting them function on their own for a while, then coming in and royally fucking them up, making themselves lose markets that way. Hasbro was the largest toy company of the world at one point due to merging with other large companies. As in, Mattel had nothing on them. Now Mattel is not only larger, but still sells more in average. Guess how Mattel deals with it's lower groups?

So, no, I trust Hasbro with IP and their subsidiaries like I trust a drunkman with a bottle of very expensive scotch.

Feh, and ACW was a freaking wedding, which is, like, the premise of animated movie and romantic comedy ever made, and it was still amazing, despite the fact that all their advertisement for the finale made it seem like it was going to be dreadful.

Don't get me wrong; I'm confused as hell why they didn't just do actual ponies in a movie. But, this far in, I can't judge books by their cover and not sound like a horrible hypocrite.

>>2521561
If you accept the premise that they the show is a long-running advertisement to buy toys (and sell ad space on TV; the ads aired during the show have gotten SIGNIFICANTLY more mainstream since season 1, so that means real money is starting to move), then they want people to be watching, and the only way to keep people watching is to try to make it good.

Sure they have deadlines and constrains and not every episode is going to be a symphony, but saying they're just flat-out not trying to make a quality show is... well, it's like me saying I don't think you're trying to make quality posts. It's baseless, not to mention insulting.

I think you're making a lot of unjustified assumptions that your evidence cannot back up. Hasbro has meddled in the show, and the writers have made it good in spite of it. They have shown that their focus is the toyline and the the show has been made for the purpose of brand identity. One executive outright said that they only got 13 episodes for s3 because that was the point where they could run reruns and be successful.

They do not care.

You have not shown that they care. You say that, "Hey, they must care." But there are plenty of alternate explanations that are more substantial than, "they must care"

> saying they're just flat-out not trying to make a quality show is... well, it's like me saying I don't think you're trying to make quality posts. It's baseless, not to mention insulting.

Are you saying Hasbro has always tried to make quality shows? That has been their focus this entire time? Would you please point me to the myriad of shows hasbro has put out there that are of a high quality, or statements showing that they care about making their shows of a high quality?

They're a toy company. That's what they're focused on.

>>2521577

Uh, no, it doesn't. It very often does not, and that's why there's a strong focus on evidence proving correlation and causation.

Consider the graph that had the rising number of hurricanes on the x axis and the lowering belief in Christianity on the y axis.

You can put most any set of data with any other on a graph. That does not make them any more likely to be related.

Yeah, I know. There are (or at least were) some hovering around here and there. I've spoken with a few, though I have to admit I don't share their enthusiasm. They're almost exclusively girls (now women) that grew up with the show and have some good nostalgic memories of it. Which is perfectly normal and fine, given that those shows were aimed at girls their age.

>>2521580
> One executive outright said that they only got 13 episodes for s3 because that was the point where they could run reruns and be successful.
Yes, and that would be a buisness decision they would have to make. And we all panicked when they said that, because it's bad for fans like us that want more show. But where that story REALLY got interesting is that they're [/i]not actually doing that[/i] and season 4 is full length. So apparently that guy and that mentality didn't win out.

> Are you saying
I don't know what the budgets of those other shows were, or what freedoms they had, but I'm willing to bet it wasn't high and open enough to really make it worth our time.

They didn't outright say that about MLP, just shows in general. Considering season 3 was green lighted during season 1's airing, it seemed like a safe thing to do. Make enough for syndication in case it doesn't do so well, and if the show is a success order more seasons. They've already gone back to 26 episode seasons.

>statements showing that they care about making their shows of a high quality?
It's been stated by both people from Hasbro Studios and interviews/panels with the creative staff that they actually try to work together with them in order to produce quality shows.

And my argument is "I don't think you are giving them the benefit of the doubt." You aren't being fair to Hasbro.

but i digress, im just judging the book not by his cover, but for the synopsis and the marketing about it.

is like reading "from J.R.R Tolkien, come the most pretty high school drama of our generation, where Linsy, will face the popular girl of the school, meeting boys, and joining forces with her friends, this story will get into all the girls", i will be like wtf is that? and you will tell me "but is J.r.r Tolkien, you have no right to say anything."

I don't think it takes a rocket scientist to figure out that Hasbro has "making quality shows" as a deeply held goal. It does not take a certain type of person to judge this. You only have to look at their statements, their actions, and what types of shows they have produced. If they cared about making good shows...

They would make good shows.

Not a good show.

Good shows.

>I *do* remember that, as a kid, I watched some pretty terrible stuff and got interested in it mostly just cuz it was there, not because it was that great.

Yep. I did the same thing. That's just a thing kids do, and executives pick up on that.

To be honest, if Tolkien was working on that I'd be wary because he's working outside of his usual environment. If he was doing say... A story on another thing, lets go crazy and say a SCIENCE-FICTION epic with religious themes then it'd be more applicable.

Belief without evidence is a faulty reason to believe in anything.

ANY of the reasons that I gave in a previous post that I said would cause me to stop complaining. Why would I have faith in Hasbro at all?

They addressed the "appear out of nowhere" thing within the first few minutes of the episode. Twilight's increasingly distant relationship with his brother and the woman she's going to marry is a major plot point, as it forms the basis of her feeling slighted and distrustful, and it doesn't work if we keep seeing Shining showing up for the holidays.

> "but is J.r.r Tolkien, you have no right to say anything."
Eh, the Silmarillion sucked.

But, more to the point, I think defending the credibility of someone who has produced good stuff consistently in the past is both rational and smart. It doesn't guarantee their future works will be great, but it gives more of a fuzzy feeling than a total unknown.

>>2521594
Of course nobody knows the truth! We have no real grasp on the timetables, the money, the major players, or even the long-term strategy of any of the parties involved here. And they're wise to keep us in the dark, because frankly its none of our business about the "whys" of what goes into the show other than idle curiosity. No smart company fully discloses their strategies when those strategies can take the better part of a decade to come to fruition. Even stockholder meetings are almost completely talking about the past and with only the vaguest hints of the future.

It's popularity is, certainly. So is it's quality, but that's due to the efforts of DHX, not lack of or presence of Hasbro's effort, just like EqG, which squarely rests on the shoulders of DHX.

Again, we're circling back to the whole Ponies vs. Human High School thing. Aping MLP to sell human dolls does not inherently make the movie itself bad, but the concept behind it does and that's why I don't like it. I think they should have made a new IP for the human doll line and kept the same team working on ponies and hired a different one for their little experiment, rather than splitting them between the two.
What people need to stop doing though is treating like this is a big blockbuster event. It is essentially My Little Pony Friendship is Magic parts 1&2 2.0 retold with humans instead of ponies, where Twilight has to go around essentially remeeting all of her friends to fight the big bad, save the day, and kick off a toyline.

and he just appeared one day to do all this, and sure will do even more....

not a fan...

the silmarillion wasnt done when he was already death?

and for the thing... lets see, im whiling to see, even the fucking premise dont fall under my wing.

like i said, it probably is going to be fun, and some genuin moments... but friking monster high inspiration behind the entire idea....

and i will feel so bad for liking it, because it will probably will have good moments and maybe interesting things, but it will be friking human high school monster high rip offs.

Ponies have WAAAAAAAAAY overshot any other Hasbro property especially in the form of WHO IS WATCHING. That is my point. Grown men watching a show for that was originally meant for little girls. You don't see that with any other Hasbro property in the scale it has for Friendship is Magic. There were an UNGODLY amount of Pony conventions in the US alone this past year. You don't see the same kind of thing with Transformers or Hasbro. Sure they take part in OTHER cons, but they don't have 30+ conventions in one year just for one specific property.

Make a new IP instead of trying to stand on the back of a successful one, possibly severing its spine.

I'm just going to say this and back out of the thread for good.

To me, FiM was slice-of-life fantasy adventure

To me, EQG seems like slice-of-life teenage issues with FiM as the foundation.

Both genres are equally good when written well. I will remain cautiously optimistic because I see no reason or evidence to be otherwise. However, I respect whoever disagrees with me.

Can you restate that with about 100% less rhetoric and ranting? How, exactly, is the core show damaged regardless of what the movie does? Even if it bombs, it doesn't take the piss out of anything when the season 4 opener is unlikely to even reference it.

I can deny the other shows are good, because if they were as good as Friendship is Magic, why isn't there such a big cult following as Friendship is Magic? I can't say any other Hasbro property has been a good enough show to warrant me going on the internet to bang my head against the desk because people think humanizing ponies to sell dolls is a good idea. Speaking of which... Is there a lot of humanization fanart of LPS yet?

Marketing is essentially the balance between trying to make you think something is something else without actually outright lying about it. Its often deliberately misleading specifically for effect. It's a strange, strange dance of trying to stay ahead of trends, but only a little, and is often extremely experimental, and also often exasperating since you never quite know what you're gunna get.

Bottom line is, if you can't see in that cage but people keep telling you its a duck, you should be wondering what sort of stunt they're trying to pull here.

I admit I can't fight against infinite "what if?"s, but, uh, I guess I can add to the pile!

Uh, yes...

Look at car commercials. They're trying to sell freedom. All these cars going down empty roads at high speeds, over rugged mountain trails... they're selling the idea that your job will be less than a grind, and your car will get more mileage than between work, day care, the fastfood place, and home.

Phone commercials are selling a social life, all these happy, smiling friends calling you all the time, inviting you out to dinner, and little games to play in the meantime. Same thing with restaurants. Everything is so easy!

Drinks show you running a marathon and getting a nice cold one to celebrate. Sound systems show everyone rocking the fuck out at a great party that only you could host.

Marketing tries to fill your head with hopes of what their product can do, will do, for you, despite the fact that it's just another thing, not particularly different than all the other things.

And, with shows and movies, they want to give you juuuuust enough for your brain to run in a million directions and make up ideas for a storyline that suits your own need. Because the real thing probably won't be able to live up to whatever you think it should be, but if they've sold you the idea, they've basically sold you a ticket.

It always seems like an odd turn of phrase for me to use, given as what I avatar as, but... not everything is that black and white. There is lying and there is lying. No doubt whatever they've shown is actually in the movie (though, even that's not guaranteed; I've seen trailers that contained cut scenes) Nevertheless, what they show us and how they describe it may be a bit off from what the actual focus is, purely in the interest of attempting to attract a different crowd.

That sort of thing is extremely common, and deeply irritating, which is why I hate marketing.

>>2521648
Did you always want ponies? Were you born with a burning desire to see ponies? Or did you stumble across this show at some point, realize it's good, and find yourself liking it?

If it's that last one, then you're a normal person that likes things they like. So it's possible for you to like other things, too.

That's why the trope Trailers Always Lie exists. Anyone who's seen Iron Man 3 can agree on that.

In fact, even though the trailer makes some people believe Sunset Shimmer will be just a bully with as much depth as Diamond Tiara, I think it's hiding just a bit more than that.

well, maybe is because is teen age high school stuff with humans.
something even the people of the show said they wasnt going to do and now they are doing it "because it was his vision"
and because this is a teen age girls movie, of course you cant make anything beside high school girl stuff.
and not only that, the trailer suggest they are going to play at least 80% of what you see in this kind of shows....

this is just a guess, i cant guess why people think stuff some times.

I recommend the former, since the latter gives money to Hasbro for something you don't want and gives the impression that you do want it.

However, if you can form a group of 3-4 to see it together and heckle it as a group, MST style, that sounds like a fun experience if you can do so without ruining the movie for the little girls that sincerely want to see it.

While I have very few brony friends, my very good friends all have razor wits, extremely dry humor, and know exactly who those fine gentlemen are.

I think I could convince them (with sufficient fermented beverages) to join me in an MST heckling of the film.

However, you raise a good point. I'm sure there will be children who genuinely want to see the film and it would be wrong to deprive them of their enjoyment of it.

Very well. I shall acquire a copy through means either financial or otherwise, invite my comrades over, ply us with large amounts of liquor, and commence the heckling at some point in the future. Perhaps it would make a good youtube video.

Good sir, you've got a point..... when I first saw the backstory short for Sunset on the backcard of her pony figure, I felt "Oh, this could get ugly..." then I saw the EG trailer, and it only made me dislike her even more.

But thinking back to that trope (and after actually seeing actual Iron man 3, compared to it's trailers), you've got a good point. I'll give the little brat a chance to go from Diamond-Tiara-bitch status to pity-me-i'm-not-bad-i'm-Trixie status (which is good).

We'll just have to wait and see.

Anonymous 20 May 2013 03:48:00 GMT No.2521708

>>2521707

In season 1, when Trixie was given her first episode, she was a blatant snob, an "evil" antagonist, yet a large following feel in love with her, despite her being an flank, the fandom made up sad backstories as to why she was might have become such a bitch, and thus the "pity me" route was taken. She became so fan popular they brought her back, stronger than before, and then was given redemption and made good.

So those who wanted her back were happy, some of those who still hated her for being a bitch, were leveled with, (including myself, I hated Trixie at the beginning, but by season 3, I could stand to see her around again.)

Depending on how they actually portray Sunset in this movie, she'll probably either be loved or hated, or treated as "NOTHING IN THE MOVIE IS CANON!" ranters, but that's just my guess.

The setting actually can contribute to liking or disliking an episode.

Forcing another trip to the Empire on us in GPP was (subjectively) a negative.

Now, things can still be good despite the setting (I felt GPP was mediocre) but if there's a setting you dislike -- and high school is much worse than the Empire -- then it's less likely you'll like it.

i think to you saying i will hate me is the same than saying i will hate the movie because i think i have been clear on that.

i use transformers like an example some times, because is the same toy company, with the same objective, just a diferent demographic. even im not a fan of it because i didnt grow up with it in my child hood.

but i could think making a movie about optimus prime being a striper while megatron is a pervert going to the strip club, is a pretty dumb idea.... even it could be cool and fun, the setting is dumb.

at the end will be a really guilty plesure is if end up enjoying it (more of guilt than a plesure).... because is twilight the f*cking high student.

uhhh, except your stripper example changes the tone and direction of the series from autobots vs decpticons to personal drama.
Twi in high-school is in some ways an extension of the slice of life stories. It keeps it more or less the same and in some ways expands the adventure aspect (new world and all).

lets try again with the transformer example, lets talk about optimus falling in a worm hole to another dimension, where he became a teen age boy, and he use a alien device to transform on diferent incarnations of his friends, all this on a ben 10 style just to get in that market...

i dont know. is just.... gua, i cant accept the premise that easy. is just all my fault, because i cant acept it is natural to grab this ponies and turn them into the only thing tv for teen age girls can think off... high school monster high, bratz, club wingx, and probably a ton more.

Was just about to post that picture to explain why I think it's chrysalis

First picture: Looks shocked at winning but happy
Second picture: Looks mean and egotistical.

I think they will explain it by saying that everyone loves the prom queen, and she will feed off that love. How she got there or even knew about the portal will hopefully gets explained in the movie (and not the last 10 minutes.)

Plus the magic near the end of the trailer sort of remained me of her reveal in ACW

I actually made a similar theory, also pointing out the aesthesic difference between the dresses in a previous thread.
Though I wouldn't say it's Queen Chrysalis, I find it hard to believe they would recycle a villain for their big movie premiere. Then again, this is a similar MO, and she is the most popular villain... Though maybe this is intentional and this is what will tip Twilight off. Would be funny to watch her explain it.
"Why do you suspect Shimmer, Twi?"
"Because this is oddly similar to that one time where this giant bug lady and her giant army of love-eating bugs crashed my babysitter's wedding and encased my mentor in goop"
"...Ok..."

It would just be a very similar plot to ACW if that's who she was.

We seem to have a very interesting take on new villians.

Everything that was bad that happened in S2 we were all: "Oh man! I bet Discord's behind it!"
In S3 it was Sombra we suspected to be behind everything, and now we're doing the same with Chrysalis.

I was thinking about that change earlier and came up with another explanation... What if, as has been suggested, the portal lets ponies take over the body of their human-equivalent (so human-Twilight existed before Twilight went through the portal), and similarly pony-Sunset took over her human self, causing the change.

It leaves it open for Sunset to have been corrupted by dark magic, a problem human-Sunset wouldn't have had (assuming the "human" world lacks magic).

hey, i got another question, to derail from my whinning hate, unholy not hope....

if the scrip was ended, before the season 2 ended airing... that mean the scrip could have been start being made for the half way season 2 was done?

it could be just a concidense the Lauren left for something related? i know im streching it really, and maybe is there no relation... but the dates are not kind of fitting? all this had to be planed even before the scrip started to be done. so that could bring it even closer....

I don't know. It might've been talked about around the time she was planning on leaving, but the script was finished almost a year after she left.

but the dates could fit?

like i say, maybe im stretching it because she probably just wanted to do other stuff and left the animals behind.... but just saying.

because some times the show is developed some time closer to change stuff.
but later you will tell me equestria girls have been planed for 2 years ago....

just....... cant handle it, i want to bealive... but this things just want me to think there is not hope on season 04

>>2521753
yea, the script was finished a year after she left, but they could had to speak about it almost a year before start writing it. isnt it. or they just made the script on 3 months and thats i (well, maybe thats even to much time, but the planning should have something)?

and remember, they are not allowed to speak about anything outside the walls..... just remember how they said there was going to be humans when season 3 was going to be done.... but now we have humans... and the script was done before that time.

Lauren wasn't working on the show since the summer of 2011, maybe even the spring (the exact dates on when she left are unclear). It could've been talked and planned about 6-9 months before the script work had started.

>>2521754
And they said there would be no humans in Equestria, as in humans don't exist in Equestria's world. This is using alternate worlds, and it's likely that humans couldn't exist in Equestria even if they traveled through the mirror as they'd just turn into ponies like Twilight turns into a human in their world.

just because twilight turned into a princess, so that cover almost the entire toy line at the end of the season, princess twilight get all the expensive playsets, the semi expensive vehicles, and at the beggining of the season we got more princess Cadence to sell what was left of the wedding, with the entire crystal empire line, where it was the city of cadence and the theme of the toy line....
is not like they had a train to promote this time. "they even put the car for 2 seconds on the episode to place the product"

and ofcourse, they have an entire movie product placement comming up. i mean, what else you want for a product placement....
pretty sure they will ride some pink car you will see for the dolls, the fashion room where they dress twilight for the prom, another place set they will make.....

so dont say there is less product placement because the product placement this time are the entire settings.

they are forced petitions...

but that doesnt mean all petitions are wrong or bad.

because some times they are not as hurt full, or can have a good excecution....

for example, even im not fan of the crystal empire (mostly because it have cadence and shinning amor), it wasnt that much of product placement of "IN YOUR FACE BITCH" and they made an entire theme toy line with what ever they wanted....

even for some reason they wasnt allowed to make the translucent ponies, probably they couldnt find a way to make the glitter dont come off or other technical problem, and for that was the 5 second crystal transformation... even at the end wasnt used

not going to say "they should not place stuff in my show, blablabla", im just going to say im not a fan of that forced placement when it isnt even natural... like an entire movie comming

...
look, maybe forced is a word to strong apparently.

or you want me to believe they are like "Oh yea, human teen age girls, just what this cartoon need, how i didnt think about that, boss you are fucking awesome"

because i know they are not knelled on broken glass in a corner until they keep working.

they are able to do what ever they want, but there are conditions. the condition could be "we want princess cadence" and then they do what ever they want with that. hasbro says "i want a carriage or a car or something on princess twilight coronation" and the staff just add a car for 3 seconds on screen. i want a movie about high school girls, where we can sell the boyfriend toy, there should be fashion display, kind monster high, they are successful(me la mame al final)

..... but like you say, you use the staff words like absolute true, with out any judgment... so be it, we are on different sides of this, and "there could be only one".... so probably im going to lose later, because what is my word against the staff word, mine is wortless....

(extra conspirasy teory: "Cadence wigns have that purple to pink effect just like the first celestia toys, but the actual cadence toy have plain purple wings, that make me think they dessigned cadence like the planned toy, but during the toy development they changed the wing material and this forced to change the wanted effect of the toy, leaving cadence with inaccurate wings")

i can get the staff being totally agree with a petition.

i mean, they are not going to let the staff decide the theme of the toy line, so they work making suggestions and stuff, and later they make more petitions. because even the staff is 100% agree with princess twilight, just little stuff like the 3 second car or the transformation of the train and focus of the train during s2, tell you they are never alone....
but that could not be that bad... maybe... if there is subtly.

you dont think the screen time of princess cadence are petitions? if the staff like to work with this characters.... probably, but cadence is the pink princess of love and hearts of the line, so she have to get a ton of dialogue, and interactions and stuff. like saving the day a ton of times, and probably more.

well getting away from the theme i had with my....
nemesis? rival? alter ego? friend? something? TGSB

here's something about the stolen crown im a little confuse, or at least interested.

probably some people have noticed before, but maybe the crown stealer will be some one else... so probably could be some one else involved?
why i say this. well, if sunset shimmer stole the crown... why she didn used it, and won already? why it have to be the price of the prom? this part is what make it a little fishy, and wonder if they are going to paint it like it was sunset shimmer fault for being the bully... but later change it to something else, even apparently she is evil.... and i hope they just dont recycle queen chrysalis... that will be so cheap.

something is hidden... because i dont think this are supposed to be the dumb parts.

i said transformation. twilight real pony look like a normal human at the beggining, and every one else.
but sure after sunset shimmer get the power and we are on the climax of the movie, we are going to have a transformation, because they are the specials friends linked to the elements of harmony.
magic girl transformation, and now the main 6 are match for sunset shimmer power and defeating her.
then they return to the party to dance with his new pony special equestria girl transformation.

but who knows. there still some misterious points to call my speculation to be real....

I'm looking forward to it honestly. Yes it is likely to have some really dumb moments. Yes, it's likely there will be a inane romantic subplot. Yes, it's likely to be a stereotypical high school film. However, from what I can see from the trailer, the ponies personalities are all still intact. And, we get to see the hilarity of ponies adjusting to human life. I don't think the writers will let us down in the humor department, or in the song department. And if it turns out to be bad, just don't bother buying it on DVD or watching the spinoff show(if that gets made).

That's not why I'm here. I'm here because I got wind of people planning brony meet-ups to actually see the movie in theaters and assumed it could only be coming from one place.

I'm here to let you all know, that UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES are you to do this. I will not see any money given to Hasbro for destroying Lauren's dream.

Lauren Faust, has said in interviews over and over that she wanted to make a show for girls that wasn't a typical "girl's show. As a response to shows like Monster High, Bratz, and Winx Club, where the characters talk about nothing buy cute boys and shopping. She created MLP:FiM as an answer to exactly the kind of shis Equestria Girls is going to be.

I have made my motivations clear and now I will tell you what I am going to do. I will drive around my city, not going to say which one just that it has more than one theater showing EqG. I will bring with me plastic bags full of spaghetti in various sauces and I will throw them at any group of two or more people seen entering or standing in outside one of these theaters and i will yell things at you possibly not even about the show or movie.

You will not hear from me until the day before the movie hits theaters with updates on my spaghetti cooking progress.

That's not even marginally true about EQG, that's just your headcanon, and a pretty implausible one at that.

And Faust's Galaxy Girls are WAY more anorexic than the EQG characters.

This. Not to say we should start complaining about Galaxy Girls but it's unfair that no one is concerned what their bodies are like but for EqG it's suddenly a problem.

I think the important thing to think about here is also that these are cartoons, which it's always fun to do wacky and unrealistic designs with cartoons. The problem lies when it's being made in an obvious, sexual manner in things like Bratz and Barbie where it's pretty clear what they are going for. Personally I don't see how someone can look at the designs for GG or EqG and think those are sexy....not without doing some stylized, artistic redesigns in order to make them that way.

As adults, we have every inch of our entertainment injected with violence, negativity, and sex, so it's no surprise an adult would look at those designs and wonder how sexuality can and is being applied to them, even when none is intended.

I'm not worried. A few reasons.

Man of Steel is coming out the same week as Equestria Girls. Most likely it'll overshadow EQG because a whole lot more people like comic book superheroes.

My sister babysits her friend's daughter and guess what, she likes FiM. Her mother is a busy parent, and she was surprised by us watching ponies one time. She doesn't know about the fandom and she uses the internet a lot. There are lots of other parents like her who probably don't know about the fandom and assume it's a generic cartoon show that they avoid.

Spin-Offs of popular tv shows that don't work out usually fade away from existence and are forgotten. There are actually a lot of tv shows with unsuccessful spin-offs that hardly affect the original show in any way.

Here's the listing for EQG showings in the US:

http://www.screenvision.com/cinema-events/my-little-pony-equestria-girls/

It appears that the movie will be showing on weekends through June and July, once each day (10am or noon, according to random check).

Here's a link to Canadian showings (goes to .pdf file):

After all the good that's come from this show, I don't understand the abject contempt for something with so much going for it, from such a successful crew, and starring characters we should all want to emulate. The irony of bronies wringing their fists over the idea of a girl's show being good is almost too much to bear.

Good is subjective. Even though it may be good enough to be successful, not everyone will like it. The people that don't like it will not want more to be made of it, but if it's successful, more will be made of it.

While it's true that we're currently not completely sure how this'll turn out, your argument is almost like saying, "man, I don't understand why you don't want every episode of the show to be like MMC, because -I- personally loved it."

Which is silly, why should it matter if more is made of it or not? If you don't like it you don't have to watch it or anything that comes after it, and unlike something such as the Bayformers films it doesn't prevent them from making an FiM theatrical film in any way.

The "you don't have to watch it" argument falls into contradiction when you later say "but it's good, you can't say anything about it until you watch it."

Case in point: that Crystal Heart book. I've been told both of those arguments on it repeatedly.

Not really, if you want to pass judgement on it then yes, logically you have to watch it as otherwise you can't really construct on argument that doesn't come across as immature, but it's your decision to do so, nopony is forcing you to do this, you could just as easily ignore it and say "It doesn't interest me so I haven't watched it." I do this all the time, I haven't played World of Warcraft, I have no interest in doing so, thus the worst thing I have to say about it is that I vehemently dislike the idea of paying a monthly fee for the continued privilege of playing I game that I already paid for when I bought the software, I'm not going to complain about the story, if there is one, or the music, or anything of the sort as I can't give a fair appraisal of them, but that doesn't mean I feel any compulsion to play it just so I can bitch about how much I hate it.

MMC isn't a good example here. There's many kinds of episodes, MMC being what I guess we can call a "pay off". We've got nothing invested into EQG, and it would undermine the value of MMC if every episode was like that.

I may have a desk full of ponies, but I'm not fanatical enough to start buying actual dolls. It's ok though, I'm an adult and Hasbro doesn't expect me to even watch a show for little girls, nevermind buy the merch.

but to that remove like 100% because at least the monster high dolls have ball joints everywhere, letting them to get a ton of possibility.
while this ones are just as basic posible articulation... 5 points of articulation.

but probably are going to cost like $7... or at least im expecting that price.

if it affect season 4, it will be they are going to use elements got from there.
for example, if sunset shimmer make cameos or stuff like that.
and i guess twilight will be learn something at the end of this movie, celestia even mention how she is supposed to know even more than she does...

so if continuity works, there should be something. if we talk about changing mechanics in the world like having the portal open to have a merchant post... i dont think that is really going to be the case.

That's even more disheartening. It's just awful what Hasbro is doing, the way they're acting almost opposite to Faust's vision. That it's not the only thing going on at the moment compounds it.

She said that she wanted to have Twilight succeed Celestia, and also said that if it were up to her, there would only be two Alicorns. So unless she planned on killing off Celestia and Luna...

She was talking about Cadence when she said she only wanted two Alicorns. And this was before the interview where she said that she intended for Twilight to be Celestia's successor. (IIRC)

i dont think she could be totally fine with the movie either...
i dont mean to hate it... but just because is playing the card "we need to do a cartoon for teenage girls.... so the only way is the classic than never fail teenage girl high school with a dance", because girls only like that kind of stuff...

but im just putting words on her mouth while she could be squealing about the entire idea and pre-ordering an entire set of dolls and dvds.

My opinion on the whole situation:

Hasbro. If you want to make money and take advantage of consumers, rather than letting writers have more creative control... than fine! I'll just go care about other things in the community. Despite my disappointment in the destruction of creative writing in this current situation I can't do a thing. And I am NOT aiming a pitchfork at Hasbro or reading the "Faust gospel"

Business is business and i am not gonna let bad PR or creative distest cloud my own personal judgement. Even if EG is a disaster for fans with poor writing I will not flip my shit. I'm a brony til the very end when it's all over. Liking the current direction or not i am NOT going to let nerves ruin my life for the next 3 weekson complaining. I'll find a way to view EG when it happens and make my own judgements. Faust can be as mad as she want and Hasbro and be as corporate as it wants. We can do NOTHING.
I am in this til the end and using petty insults is going to get me nowhere.

If I despise the notion of EG I will not jump ship! I will fight til the bitter end. This community is amazing and no corporate fondling will change that. My own judgement will be the deciding factor.

I'm with this fandom til it ends for ALL!

this make me think.

how much of adults will show off?

the average main character and filler ponies are teenagers.
then we have granny smith like a food woman or something, or at least that is what the rumor is showing.

so a luna and a celestia should be Grown ups adults.
because i think they are going to show almost non adults, or at least some token teachers and stuff.

how much of an entire new world it will feel, and how much of just a giant school it will feel?

After talking and joking with my bro and bro-in-law about EqD, I just want to give a word of caution for anyone planning to watch it in theaters.

If you plan to see it, make sure you bring a bunch of friends. That'll put off the likelihood of you being surrounded by little girls that could lead to pedophile accusations should there be few, if any, bronies in attendance. And most important, do not bring a video recorder or pull out your phone to record the movie (if you're one of those sort of people). That'll reduce the chance of further pedophile accusations and a call to the cops.

No, it's because Ken dolls don't have a big macintosh, and if Brad is made into a toy then he won't either, unless Hasbro wants to be as progressive as She-zow, in which case both he and the mane six will have big macintoshes.

If you're looking for anatomically correct dolls, there's a fandom for you.

Just as long as the anatomical correctness you're going for isn't realistic proportions and eyes smaller than saucers.

That's better than some of the alternatives I can think of.
* Slave.
* Concubine.
* Magically removed manhood that transformed her into a woman and now tools around as a confused young boy.
Having her dress up her young son as a maid (or whatever that's supposed to be) is comparatively lightweight for an anime.

It seems we need more Facebook likes before the next clue will be posted, but it seems like it's Sunset Shimmer so far.

The description "What we want defines who we are!" used on the page for her seems interesting as well. I think we'll find her to be a rather ambitious pony.

Doing a little research, it looks like that IS a spin-off of Monster High..or well, its also made by Mattel, same premise recycled with different characters (children of fairy tale characters). Very recent too, apparently.

Well, at least Hasbro is trying to be a little more original than "children of so-and-so's go to high school!" I think.

Well yeah, it was pretty obvious, but it's confirmed now. Joy.

So we have a plot of Twilight turning into an anorexic human, meeting clones of her friends, with a cliche love interest male and a cliche bitchy-doucheface-preppy-chick antagonist, and her goal is to...win "Prom Queen".

What hopes I had for this being at least mediocre are now gone. Oh well.

I wouldn't exactly call it "hope" when I'm expecting it to suck. I just thought that maybe, just MAYBE, it might be somewhere around "mediocre".

But nope. It's looking to be a very generic highschool story so far. At this point I only hope that it will not connect with the main series in any way.

>>2522126
Nope, just a "Why must you do this instead of a true FIM movie, Hasbro?".

Honestly, I don't think "execution" can save the movie, at this point. The entire premise of it is just completely unappealing to me.

>SfS made a fashion show fun.
SFS wasn't all about the fashion show, though. It was just a subplot. The episode focused more on Rarity being overwhelmed with work and the moral and such. While it did contain Hoity Toity, the episode itself wasn't anything special, to me.

No, but that seems to be the ultimate goal. Twilight has to get the tiara back and to do that, she has to be the "Prom Princess".

So far the major plot points seem to be:

-Twilight adorkably adjusting to being human
-Twilight "fitting in" with high school life
-Twilight meeting human clones of her friends
-Twilight becoming prom queen

None of these sound very entertaining to me.

it will not be the only focus...
but it will be the plan to solve the problems for some part.

-maybe 10 to max 15 to show the situation and get to the new world
- other 10 or 15 minutes of twilight wondering around not knowing what is she doing, surprised of everything until she finaly get with one of her friends
-20 minutes to recovering her alternative dimension friends, that count becoming friend one by one, investigating, and interactions with them.
-10 minutes, now twilight is with the rest and the bad guy keep her plan going, they have to get a montage to prepare twilight to show off and became the princess of the dance

- twilight get to the place and maybe 7 to 10 minutes of the event.

- need a final battle or climax, maybe 10 to 15 minutes

- you need to dance after transformation, 5 minutes to 7, then a good bye.

-probably i exagerated or are short at some points time, but there could fill some sunset shimmer build up, to show us how much of a big deal she is.... (unless megan make the same thing than sombra and just said it is evil and dont show her until the end), and of course some minutes with brad, they have to make some kind of "good friendship"

Ignore that it ended up being bad enough that not even he liked it, I'm referring to the action, not whether he's right or wrong. It's attention horseing.

How many times are you going to make this claim? I didn't even give 2 shits about DR, nevermind care enough to make a proclamation about it. The most I said about DR is that the 1st act had good dialogue, but I would reserve judgement until I saw the 2nd and 3rd act.

I can't think of any FIM episodes that had a "shitty" premise, besides SAYS, and that bombed hard.

FIM did take a few cliche plots and put unique spins on them, but as it is right now, EQG is looking very cliche. Cliche "hunky boy" love interest, cliche "doucheface preppy chick" antagonist, highschool prom being the focus of the main character's goal...etc

I seriously doubt Brad is a love interest.

is obviously put to fill that place.

if it is really subtle or not, his appearance is to fill "the guy who is with the protagonist"

they are not going to jump to "I LOVE YOU BRAD", but they are going to spend time toughener, they are going to hug, he is going to be supportive and like twilight personality. they could even be coronated the prince and the princess of the prom.

>Friendly with the protagonist
>Tired old "helps girl up to her feet" scene

>General feel of "nice hunky guy" character

>he doesn't seem at all like a love interest.

But like I said, he shows many signs of being one. With highschool dramas being so common, these cliches can be spotted from miles away.

Besides, why would they insert a new male character to interact with Twilight, with no intentions of him being any kind of love interest? This is a highschool cartoon. Almost every single highschool show in general has a love interest for the main character.

maybe what he mean is he is not going to end up being his love interest.

just like this monster high thing. they put you this guy, who look like is going to be the love interest of the main character, but at the end ends up being the boy friend of another character.

so maybe eg think at the end something will dislead the love thing.
but im pretty sure for the most part he will play the role alot of time, and if he get a doll, he is not going to be a bad guy.

EquestriaGuy!1DerpyVA.6 07 Jun 2013 02:06:42 GMT No.2522214

he seems better suited to be Sunset's brother, and Twilight's protector. I'm guessing he helps her defeat Sunset in some small way, but it'll be the mane 6 who outright defeat her.

Yeah, this. They haven't even tried to hide that Brad will be romanticised. Maybe not the pony equivalent, but the human version definitely.

Also, where's Geldon? That guard looks older than all the mane six but he's also a teenager in the human world. I think this lends credit to the ages not matching up in the alternate universe.

Brad is just the fandom name. Technically Brad should look like Nicholas Cage, the movie doesn't seem accurate in that aspect.

Of course not, they're going to save it for the AMAZING ANIMATED SERIESSSSSsss that will probably never get made, and if it does, it probably won't contain nearly 10% of the demons in this movie.

And really, even if there IS a big demon battle at the end, that won't matter if the rest of the movie is shite. The real question is if the other 90% of the movie is good.
And considering that they said there is a Glee-inspired musical in it... chances don't look good.

Well, it depends, early Glee when most of the characters were interesting or late Glee where all the newly introduced characters seem to be the token gay/lesbian/tranny/bulimic/etc. and half the episodes focus on Rachael even though she graduated from the school?

If it's the former then the specific musical number might not be shite, but if it's the latter, then, yeah, obviously it will be.

What Demonio said, they're all covers.

Except the one time they did original songs, but that was an exception.

I'm referring to, it might be decent if the song is correctly led up to and the song choice makes sense in the context of what has been happening in the episode, or, if they're just throwing in songs because it's expected.

EDIT: I don't have specific examples, I stopped watching it partway through the season after the original cast graduated. The transvestite was the final straw for me.

Twilicorn gets the Season 3 finale, she gets the movie, and then she gets the Season 4 opener, which is a two-parter.

She also got the first arc of the comics despite the foreshadowing of Issues #1-3 going in the exact opposite direction.

We need more research being put into discovering how to end the ride.

EDIT: Wait, scratch part of that, it was Twilight that stole the first arc of the comics, not Twilicorn.

Now that the EW preview is out there, we're ALL Hasbro spooks!

I took a bunch of screencaps of it, but I'm not in the mood right now to get out of bed, so I'll just run down the highlights from the clip.

-Luna
-Great and Hungry Trixie
-Twilight sleeps in the library
-Library looks just like Twi's library
-Cloudkicker
-Spike talks
-SS steals the crown
-SS is a unicorn, of course
-Rarity's massive sandwich should make people shut up about anorexia.
-Photo Finish
-dat gallop, lol
-Song kinda sucks, but I want to hear the whole thing before I trash it outright.

Lets see, I've only seen it 50 times since yesterday, but I don't think I missed anything.

Oh.......NO HUMAN BRAD.

So much for that all encompassing romantic sub plot. They don't even bother showing the guy, never mind this idea the movie will be about Twi's courtship. According to the leaker, the most is some blushing, and a dance. No relationship. Game over.

Oh and let's not forget--actually let's FORGET all this horse shit about make up, and dresses and shit. Not gonna happen, not relevant, get over it. This is about reimagining the birth of the mane 6's friendship. This is about demons and magic, and everything FiM is.

There is no reason for the humans to care if she is an Equestrian Princess. There is no point to them showering her and teaching her to be a princess. That make no narative sense whatsoever.

Twilight isn't gonna just go up to random people and say "I'm a Princess! Teach me your ways!" and have a montage of them teaching her.

....I think I am misunderstanding you

Anyway, I haven't given my thoughts on the trailer.

>Princess Twilight Sparkle this that LOOK GUISE SHE'S A PRINCESS DID YOU FORGET!
>pony steals the crown of THAT PRINCESS WE WERE JUST TALKING ABOUT!
>"Twilicorn, you have to go save the crown. Fuck your friends, it's not like they're main characters or anything."
>obvious horse shenanigans that make you cringe
>look, Twilicorn, your replacement friends!
>"We all love Twilight/Twilicorn so so much we're singing a song about how great she is" Success Song repeat

Then, with the leak

>villain with a design worse than Sombra
>but Twilicorn gets her replacement friends to be friends so they go Sailor Moon on the villain and stop her!

I'd be very surprised if they did, at least in an actual romantic capacity and not a "oh hey a friend and he's a boy!" bit like Spike/Big Mac. Also from the way the leaker described the end, thing's seem to get wrapped up enough that there's no reason to see this character again. He's not tagged along or vowing to protect Twilight. Seems like a one-time deal to me, as does the mentioning of this whole universe outside of its own spinoff show of course.

EDIT: Oh if you mean animated spinoff show... Well then, opps.

you assume that twilight is the only one who can think...her friends may very well do this on her own. I don't get why you get so polarized that twilight is just dragging them around when we have no evidence that she is.

Also you're the only one making it look like her being a princess is integral to the plot

im not saying how to be a princess directly, is more of, how being a girl than will win the crown, because thats the point at the beginning. win the event.

it could be, a montage about" how to become the cool, pretty, strong and smart girl than will win the crown."

maybe, but that doesnt remove the fact of that part where she kneel in front of celestia, preparing her head, to get the crown.

because she is the one who really won the crown at the end. you know, that common "twist" of the loser winning anyway at the end

but i derailed, we are talking about the montage, not if she win at the end

The first ten seconds of the trailer are basically repeating the word princess over and over, the villain is stealing the princess's crown, and the line is directly stated "I have to become the princess of the Fall Formal!" (possibly paraphrased) Twilicorn being a princess is definitely integral.

I think we all long for those times. They seem so inconsequential with the stuff we deal with today. Now, it's just one bad thing leading into another bad thing with no relief in sight, and all we can say is, "at least we still have the comics."

MMDW didn't have an impact on the series, though. MMC, well, look at the trailer for Equestria Girls where two of the first three lines are a variation of "TWILIGHT SPARKLE IS NOW A PRINCESS!" MMC has a gargantuan impact on the series so far, with the exception of the comics.

So I heard the ticking clock in this movie is that the mirror will stop acting as a portal to/from Equestria and close for 30 moons. And at the end of the movie pony Twilight goes back into the mirror to the human world and it closes. Does this mean that season 4 will happen post-however many seasons Equestria Girls has chronologically or what? Or is this just the ultimate "DBZ movie, didn't actually happen, just a what if" so they could introduce the humanized ponies and launch the spinoff seasons?

Twilight starts a zombie outbreak and she must kill the demon to save both worlds because zombies found the portal and are making zombie ponies.

if she kills the demon by killing brad then everything returns to normal and she is teleported back into equestria.

I predicted the entire movie. hahahahahaha

Hello people who don't know me. I just had an idea that... might already have been disproved by this anon who apparently saw the movie already, but I want to share it anyway. So remember that tweet Meghan McCarthy made about how she considered Magical Mystery Cure to be, paraphrasing here, the first of a three parter? Well I've heard some people theorize that EQG is going to be the second part. If this is true, the S4 premiere will presumably be part three, but it begs the question of what that part's connection to the first two will be. Now remember in the newest trailer how Cadence was talking about how the other elements are useless without the element of magic? Suppose at the end of EQG Twilight returns to Equestria to find that Discord was only faking redemption and has struck the country in its moment of weakness, thus leading directly into the next season.

tl;dr: What if Discord is still evil and attacks Equestria while the elements are incapacitated?

posting a little thingy to keep track of it

Q: do you feel like doing a short synopses of what the fuck you just watched.... was it bad?

A: >twilight gets her shit stolen by some ex student of the principal/princess
>Twilight goes through mirror to find it
>Shenanigans ensue
she also doesn't know what fingers are even though the dragon CLEARLY HAD FINGERS BEFORE

Q: Oh God, "SS is a changeling" was true...
[Referring to a, safe to say now, fake spoiler synopsis that was floating about. There are a couple other questions/references to this later on.]

A: not really sure what a changeling is... so i guess thats not true

Q: [The leaker had been teasing that Twilight gets a boyfriend in the movie.]

A: I guess you don't have to prep your bodies THAT much; they only dance and blush a shit ton.
they also do this fukkin weird dance on all fours shaking one leg out at a time

Q: is the crown thats taken the one she needs to get back in order to get coronated?

A: the crown is magic isn't it?
i thought that was why they needed it back.
she also needed to get it back before a certain time or else she'd be stuck for '30 moons'
is that like a month or somethin?

Q: is the one with multicoloured hair called rainbow dash or roxy dodgers?

A: it was rainbow dash.
[Side note: later in one of the threads someone claimed responsibility for the spoiler with the different names for the EqG mane 6 and said that he'd made it all up.]

Q: Was there by any chance a Glee-inspired cafeteria song and dance?

A: fuck YES.
my friend and i were going to watch and make a drinking game for every time they started singing.
we'd have alcohol poisoning if we went through with it

Q: Thanks. That pretty much completely confirms the leak from two months ago.

>Honestly Granny Smith as a lunch lady, Trixie, even the CMCs happen as very short little cameos. I wouldn't spend much time freaking out about them.

>I believe the boy's name is Flash Sentry.... "sentry" because in the pony world he was a palace guard. He flirts with Twilight briefly in both worlds, but they never date and it's not the over-arching plot. Much more time is spent on the Sunset Shimmer story, especially in the end.

>I never saw a shopping scene, but there is some Glee inspired cafeteria song and dance. Surprisingly I think it's the best song, maybe that and the remixed intro.

>I'm just telling you... Its not worth your time to panic over Granny Smith. She's on the screen for seconds. If you want to panic, start worrying about Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna in their pantsuits.

A: this sounds about right.

Q: Though seriously, could you tell us how it ends? Does Twi return to the pony world? What happens to Brad?

A: returns to pony world; meets the boy as pony and he acts like he knows all the events in the human world

Q: Does this film take place before or after Twilight's coronation (being crowned princess)?

A: I unno

Q: SCOOTALOO IS RIDING RAINBOW DASH [Referring to one of the pics.]

A: it was at the dance and they were playing

Q: Is [Twilight]… doing magic? From a nonexistent horn? [Referring to another pic.]

A: the crown is protecting her by giving her magic

Q: Fucking sun demon mind controlling everyone in the school

A: she controls everyone and plans to get revenge on the princess/principal

Q: To the guy who saw the movie; did this character [picture of EqG Vinyl Scratch] get any lines or just a cameo?

A: cameo at the very end

Q: Does Spike (the dog/dragon) talk at any point in the movie after he becomes a dog?

A: he can talk but pretends to be a dog until the end

Q: Wait, you gotta answer us this! How much of the film is about ponies rather than humans? A little? Quite a bit?
Do we get cutaways between the human and pony worlds?

A: Almost all humans. ponies in the first and last 10 mins maybe

Q: What were [Sunset Shimmer's] motives? or was she just evil for the sake of being evil?

A: she was the princess's student then got replaced by twilight; from what i understand she was also a bitch

Q: Do you know when/why they get wings/pony ears in the course of the movie?

A: they're in a high school with a horse mascot. the ears are just headbands.
they get wings'n shit at the end when twilight gets the crown.

Q: One more question: anything you can say about the plot about why Sunset Shimmer transformed into that demon-like thing? Was she possessed, was the crown evil or something?

A: the crown did it to her of her own free will (i guess?) she stole it but lost it when she was kicked through the mirror/portal

Q: Was the name Chrysalis ever mentioned at all?

A: not that i remember
is that something i would remember?

Q: So what was the last scene of the movie? A group hug? A cheesy line where they all laugh?

A: the cheesy lines with the guy pony

TGSB !SWAGOLYINE 08 Jun 2013 13:14:10 GMT No.2522470

Q: Did this character [picture of EqG Trixie design] do anything notable?

A: she bought a candy bar from a vending machine. it felt like a forced cameo. (she was overly pompous but polite at the same time)
why who is she?

Q: If twilight didn't even know what fingers were when she became human. How does dash know how to fly skillfully instantly?

A: she didn't she fell on her flank a lot when flying

Q: So who goes to prom with the rest of the 6 characters?

A: i don't think there were 'dates' just more 'will you dance with me' and it was just twilight and the guy

Q: Did [Brad] become prom king?

A: there was only prom princess now that i think about it.
and they 'happened' to use the same (albeit non magical) crown. demon-bitch tried to swap that one with the magic one

Q: So the other five were absolutely useless or did they have their moments to shine?

A: kind of?
they all kind of hate each other at the beginning and work it out as the movie progresses

Q: also, holy shit, anon yesterday was right, sunset shimmer really is a changeling. leaker, does she reform herself and become a normal pony friend at the end of the movie?

A: and i have no idea what a changeling is, so im pretty sure that's not the case.
as for reforming herself, no she remains a human and stays in the human world.
doing community service 'n shit

Q: By the way, how long did that fight at the end last?

A: it lasted a good while.
the red-girl was about to 'finish them off' when the magic crown started to protect them

Q: [speculation about an EqG series]

A: if it makes you feel any better, story wise that shouldn't happen.
the mirror seals off for 30 months after only a couple days of working.
that would make for some odd time gaps in any story they would try to make

Q: does [Sunset Shimmer] actually start hurling around fireballs and shit? we can see in your last photo she's conjuring some shit up

A: yea, she fucks up the whole school.
the picture with the vice principal shows that she has to repair everything on her own as punishment

Q: how much was brad actually in the movie? he wasn't even in the new trailer so can we assume we are seriously overestimating his impact on the movie?

A: felt like a sub-plot, really

Q: any chance she'll be in the main show?
does twilight still have her fucking wings as a pony?

A: she stays in the human world.
and why wouldn't twilight have her wings?

Q: And, what happens with Sentry once Twilight returns to her own world?

A: they meet in the pony world and blush 'n shit and everyone's like 'OooOooO you like that horse guy!'

Q: does it explain the ridiculous skin tones, extra long hair and wings at the end of the film?

A: always had the skin tones
and they turn into pony people when the crown gives them magic or some shit.
they go away after twilight leaves though

Q: ahh right so whats the final moment of the film?

just twilight starting to tell everyone what happened or what?

A: the pink pony relays the entire plot in like a minute as if she was there.
she had a 'hunch'
that also happened in the human world where she explains the portal hopping from another world.
as for the very last scene i don't remember, sorry.

Q: So I take it teases twilight with the idea of everyone having the memories of their counterparts then, sounds fun at least

A: none of them have any memories as the human counterparts were technically different characters.
the guy just gives the impression that he knew

Q: Do they indicate that the human world is a different universe/dimension, or is it a different timeline of the same world, were different events occur?

A: it was a different universe.
i remember the red girl (shimmer? was that her name?) being like 'lol you don't know how alternate universes work?'

Q: so are these tears of Remorse? or just crying that she didn't get away with it [Referring to the pic of SS defeated and crying.]

A: i think it was probably a little bit of both.
I think she was 'cured' of her bitch-ness on some level by a weird rainbow light thing

Q: How long do the jokes about Twilight trying to blend in with humans take up in the film?

A: not long. she's pretty clumsy throughout the first half, though (not on an obnoxious level though)

Q: Okay, so do are there any other necessary points that you feel the need to say that haven't been asked about yet?

If so, can you point them out please?

A: vice principal luna is creepy as fuck. her office has it's lights off and the blinds closed.

no one thinks that the red girl is nice; they're just afraid to oppose her.

all the main characters hate each other at first

and... let's see..
twilight is worried in the beginning that she'll have to watch over an entire empire like another character that i guess has to do that now.

Ammending: it's not so much that I'm uncomfortable with Twilight liking guys or girls. It's the implication that she likes Eric Generic, and their relationship will become a defining feature rather than just touched on now and then. Or Eric Generic will suck all of the rest of Twi's character traits away like Candyass is trying to do.

I don't say that, because they aren't very good :D They're like fanfiction.

Seriously the comics are not very good. The characters are all slightly off, it focuses heavily on adventure arcs and not enough on slice of life, the adventure arcs simply aren't very good, it isn't funny enough in the right ways, it tries too hard at some things, it rehashes various plot elements (the changelings messing with them was pretty reminiscent of Discord, sadly)...

Well, the list goes on. They just aren't up to snuff, and I'd rather watch any episode in the series than reread one of the comics.

Conversely, season 3 was quite good. It had plenty of strong episodes, it had MMC (which had quality music and a fun plot), it had Magic Duel (which was also fun, and hey, we got to see trixie again), it had the various CMC episodes, it had some solid Rainbow Dash action... was it shorter than the other seasons? Sure.

Soon I'll get back to season 3 (I'm currently rewatching the entire series with a friend, rating every episode, over the course of... however long it takes us) and seriously rate them.

But honestly? The comics really ARE worse than some of the fanfiction I've been reading. AND THAT IS SAD. If I get more enjoyment out of random fan stuff than official stuff, that's kind of terrible, isn't it?

Though on the other hand, the fans are endlessly prolific, and it is free. And free is a very good price :D

So long as you're having fun, you're in good shape.

So TL;DR: The comics are not very good, season 3 was solid, and the fandom produces random cute pictures and fanfics better than Hasbro does, and in greater volume.

Actually, the comics have had great characterizations. I believe the best ones relative to the show equivalent are Applejack's and Fluttershy's, the former acting more snarky and the latter a little more emphasizing the lover-of-nature aspect, something that hasn't been touched since S1. Chrysalis was turned from a mediocre villainess with a good surprise to a wonderfully hammy, highly entertaining villainess. There's a greater emphasis on friendship solving problems. Some of the issues, mainly #3 and the Rarity micro, have been better than any of the Season 3 episodes.

While Season 3 did have some good episodes -- I greatly enjoyed TMPP, OBA, MD, SiP, WA, JFS, AFR, and KCaFO -- the bad in it tremendously overpowers it. CE was awful and full of plot holes and leads that went nowhere -- the filler subplot where the not-Twilight ponies kept the town busy, for example; as soon as they got found out, Sombra got through, none of anything they were doing got any closure, and the entire rest of the episode was about how TWILIGHT IS THE BEST PONY EVAR! complete with a song hammering down on the audience how apparently great Twilight was. And, MMC was a steaming pile of caca, for reasons that should already be understood.

There were also some characterization issues with Season 3. Pinkie Pie was way too randumb for every episode past S3E03. Twilight/Twilicorn had all of her flaws power sanded until she was a perfect little Sue. Fluttershy was okay for most episodes, but look at MD -- the single worst Fluttershy characterization in the series.

I've heard the fanfiction claim from someone else once, and I don't see it. I've read some of the more popular fanfictions back when I was new to the fandom; I was unimpressed, and I no longer read fanfiction. Other than Issue #4, there's never been a comic that's made me not want to continue reading the comics.

~~And, the comics are easily available freely, though I don't recommend piracy to those who can pay for it.~~

Well for one, I'm going into it thinking about what this means for the cannon.

I see it as a potential link to explain G1 and G2. Of course everyone would lose their shit if humans come back to Equestria but this serves as at least a possible explaination.

Second I think if a high school drama is done right it can be really good. One of my favorite show right now is Freaks and Geeks. I trust the staff to stay away from the old cliches and seeing the new trailer reminded me that its not just a ploy and that it will stay in the cannon.

Thirdly, I need something to hold me over to S4 and its playing in my area.

1. you look like an old school my little pony enthusiastic, which mean your range of acceptance is not only huge, but you just like the franchise, dont know if just for nostalgia or not.

2. you have a perfect trust in the staff

3. you dont care for the minimum about how the entire premise of this is just.... so out of place, so manipulative, so wrong.

what i mean is... if you want to make a series about teenage girls at highschool with all the stereotypes about it, fine, but grabing ponies to do it, just that directly, is kind of underwelming for me.

it look like you prefer it like canon. which im suppose to accept because at the end it is happening with the same characters, with the same staff working on it, and the same time period...

but come on, is turning ponies into teenagers just for the sake of imitate monster high.

you can be totally fine with it, but i think is just really stupid.

and the worst part is, this woman is the same making season 4, i normaly try not to glorify Faust, but im pretty sure she will not be ok with a concept that dumb, while mcCarty is like "this is exciting, lets add princesses, and teenage girls, is what this shows need"

it is just come on, is almost like you grab what ever little girls franchise, and just say "they cross a portal and are highschoolers girls, hihihih"

so your point of perception isn't going to help mine

You take too much ownership of the characters.

Twilight didn't want to be human. I showed her rule 34 once and she had a panic attack.

It is what it is, and I empathize to your love of the show, I really do. But hopefully EQG won't really change anything cuz I would be dissapointed if they ties MMC to EQG to S4 so you're right to be apprehensive.

i dont think this will be a complete transvestite and play all the wrong notes of the genre.

but just for the entire concept... make me be totally skeptical, and even if i like some bits of it, like imagining sunset shimmer will be interesting and not play just an egocentric popular evi teenage girl. that will just make me say "damn it, why that had to come from this movie"

i think it take place inbetween.

it will not be like the character talking at season 4 "wow, you can give me more of that hotdog you got at your trip to the human dimension?"

but it is supposed to be linked, not linked like a 4 parter. but everything take in the same place.

this movie will be like the miniclorians.... even no one want to remember them, they still part of starwars things

and even the flash sentry guy will keep showing up, and like his debut is in this movie, that means it is totally linked, it just need to show of once anywhere at any season. they just need to show the mirror.

it is supposed to be another adventure in this place.

just imagine if ponies G3 travel through a portal, and become ponies g3.5 that will mean they are connected and are the same thing.

Personally, I think since EqG has already tied itself to the main series. Twilight princess, coronation crown etc. it wouldn't be too hard to pick up where EqG leaves off. I doubt they'll reference what happens in the mutated human world, or have the humans in Equestria. But the first and last 10 minutes when the ponies are ponies wouldn't be far fetched to make note of.

Your opinions are bad and you should feel bad.

>>2522502
The problem I think ultimately comes down to tone and structure. What I adore about MLP is just not really there in the comics. There are too many puns, too much action-adventure. It just lacks the particular charm I associate with the episodes, and without that, it is just yet another mediocre action-adventure-comedy comic which tries to be too meta to cover up for the fact that it just isn't anything special.

Is there some funny stuff in there? The parasprite amused me. There were some jokes that made me chuckle. The CMC driving Chrysalis crazy was amusing. But... it just isn't enough.

>>2522507
I don't know why you would even want a link to other MLP shows. It is better if it stands on its own, with little in jokes periodically (coloration of various characters, a few character names, ect.).

And really the question as for its canonicity is mostly "Are they going to be showing it on the Hub prior to season 4?" If they don't, it is far less likely that it will be canon than if they do, because if they don't show it then they'll be more likely to confuse their audience by referencing it. But they might not for various other reasons as well.

We'll see when season 4 hits, though. Won't know until then.

New movie anon answering a bunch of questions.

http://boards.4chan.org/mlp/res/11270135

He claims that the movie is not *bad*, just really really bland and predictable, and that they could have done much more with the idea. 6/10.

Also that Flash Sentry and his human counterpart don't really get much screentime/lines.

And a big plot hole: Celestia says that the other 5 going through the mirror would cause a "paradox"...yet somehow she knows that Twilight going through the mirror WON'T cause a paradox? Either plot hole, or Celestia is hiding something.

Oh, and he said a human Dərpy appears in the credits.

This. There is no reason out of universe to do so besides that McCarthy wants to keep Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Applejack, and Fluttershy out of this special, reducing their relevance in the series even further.

I'm getting increasingly worried McCarthy is just going to do what Dragonball Z did and replace every character besides Twilight/Goku, only keeping the originals in the background to get their flankes kicked when needed.

I would say a reason would be they need other characters that are native to the world that becomes allies with and explains things to the character that also serves as the audience stand-in. It also works in a way to fit in the theme about friendship by using characters that are and at the same time aren't the mane six. Pretty much the same characters personality wise, though with different backgrounds which allows for some additional conflict where Twilight needs to become their friends again.

If the pony mane six were there, then the plot would probably be shorter, since it would just be focused solely on Sunset and getting back the crown.

Exactly, we could cut out all the dumb highschool crap and instead, do something more fantasy-oriented.

Which leads me to believe that a lot of EQG was Hasbro mandated, because McCarthy wouldn't come up with something so bland and cliche.

Some more information from Movie Anon
~~Sunset Shimmer was not banished by Celestia, she left of her own volition.
~~Celestia moved the mirror to the Crystal Empire in case Sunset ever popped in, in hopes that Cadence would talk sense into her.

So, wow, not only the possibility of Sunset Shimmer developing Celestia's character went down the toilet, but Cadence continues to drain Celestia's role.
Well, there goes the sole reason why I would ever expect a pleasant surprise from this movie.

This is why you don't dump CHA.

Being assertive and calling you wrong (especially when you are) isn't a bad attitude to have. In fact, your own attitude is a very poor one. Opinions aren't a sacred thing, and the fact that you get so upset when people say that you're wrong really just shows an insecurity in your own personal point of view.

However, that is neither here nor there.

Humility is not actually a positive trait. The positive trait is the ability to admit when you are wrong, which is the essential PART of humility, which you apparently lack.

>>2522540
The full extent of Celestia's powers are unclear. There is some evidence to suggest she has scrying or even limited precognitive powers; she obviously is not fully prescient but she clearly can observe events at a distance and seems to have very good timing in some cases. She seems to get "hunches" that work out (Twilight getting the egg as part of her test, for instance) and it isn't clear exactly what the whole sequence in MMC was about, but if those were actual images of Twilight (rather than mere mental projections) then she can not only scry but also record (or possibly scry on the past).

It might just be she has some sort of "hand of fate" ability where she gets a vague thumbs up or thumbs down to some notion.

>>2522549
To be fair, it is plausible that she is a "unique" because of her element - basically, her investiture in magic is so deep that her counterpart never existed in the real world, because she embodies magic too deeply to exist in a non-magical world.

There could be uniques on the human side as well who are too scientifically based to exist in Equestria.

>>2522556
Ah Fluttershutter, wandering off the deep end again are we?

ITS A CONSPIRACY MAN.

Anyway, the real reason is very simple: by having her meet counterparts of her friends in the "real world", she has people with real world experience (and as others pointed out, audience surrogates). I would guess that in the original draft they all went over, and they changed it because the plot wasn't flowing properly (or because it relied on Brad to become Mr Exposition and inflated his plot importance to an uncomfortable degree).

>Opinions are not objectively wrong or right. You are claiming that your opinion is objectively right, and that is where you lie wrong.
I hold the opinion that the earth is roughly spherical and orbits the sun while revolving around its axis.

That opinion is factually correct.

Ergo, opinions can be - and frequently are - right or wrong, objectively. Opinions are your positions on reality, and if your opinions are backed up by facts, then your opinions can indeed be right or wrong.

Even things where moral relativity come into play allow for correct and incorrect opinions. For example, is murder wrong? Assuming you value your own life, the answer to that question is yes. If you answer no, then you must be implicitly saying your own life is worthless, or else you are a hypocrite and hold inconsistent opinions, which are wrong - if your opinions contradict each other, one or the other must be incorrect. An inconsistent logical system is a worthless one.

The idea that opinions cannot be right or wrong is factually incorrect. It is just not reality. It is something that people who want gold stars made up to make themselves feel better. If you claim that opinions cannot be objectively right or wrong, you are, objectively, wrong, and the probable reason is that your opinions are bad and you don't want to have to actually defend them, so you simply rationalize.

Also, if you hold that opinions cannot be objectively right or wrong, you entirely forfeit your right to argue with me. Because, you see, I hold otherwise. You are claiming that I am wrong in doing so, but on what basis? By your very own claim, your opinion CANNOT be objectively right, and therefore I am correct to disregard it. Its a paradoxical position to hold, because it invalidates all of your own personal opinions.

The very fact that you are arguing with me proves that you don't actually believe in the idea that opinions can't be right or wrong, because if you truly believed that, then arguing with me would be pointless.

>>2522593
I am an elitist, but not in the stupid, "Oh this stuff sucks" kind of way. I'm an elitist in that I believe in being the best and I like hanging out with awesome people. If I'm wrong, I change my position on the matter to the correct one, because I am a scientist, and reality trumps your personal opinions.

Fluttershutter's means of dealing with things is actually harmful to him. If he can't deal with people like me, he is pretty much doomed in real life, because I'm way nicer than most people are in the ways that count.

The fact that a cartoon character getting wings makes him angry and somehow ruins an entire season of a show he loves is pretty tragic on a personal level.

I would actually disagree. Opinions are the end result of a judgement rendered in regards to something. It's important not to lump the end result with all that lead the individual to that point, because people are entitled to their opinions.

What is impeachable, however, is all the evidence that lead up to that opinion. It's that which is right or wrong. Someone's opinion can be based on bullshit, and that's what should be attacked. I've always liked the phrase, "you're entitled to your own opiniosn, but not your own facts" because it's true. I'll never begrudge someone for their opinion, but woe betide the person who presents falsities to back up that opinion.

Well I'm against it for a few reasons. One of them, is they're watering down what already is a great show. Two, which most people know of, is they're promoting an unrealistic ideal of beauty with these girls, when they could've just left them as being ponies. It also seems like Hasbro cares about how to make money, more than they care about what their fans want, which makes no sense because the way to make money is to give your fans what they want. I think this might be more about parent pleasing than anything.

their bodies are unrealistic to begin with. They're cartoons with cartoon proportions. They're no different, or more egregious than anything else out there, and the seeming champion of the cause against that has drawn characters far worse than EQG is.

I'd back that up by posting a screencap of Rarity's massive sandwich. If the characters were actually anorexic, would she have that sandwich? Absolutely not, so from that fact, you must accept that their appearance is a result of their cartoon nature, rather than any promotion of body type.

Thirdly, I'd rather judge someone by what they say and do, rather than how they look. Simply looking at someone and passing such a damning judgement is quite frankly superficial, and the show teaches better to kids, nevermind what we all should have learned by now in our 20+ years.

well the message isn't getting through, because kids today are pretty god damn fat.

Secondly, body image only stands out, if there's no personality, or coherent story to keep the attention of the audience. Do you really think an audience member is going to be thinking about body image, with the story telling abilities of McCarthy to keep them preoccupied?

Thirdly, again, these are cartoons, which do not stand out in any way in contrast with any other cartoon. It's not like other cartoons portray humanoids in any realistic manner, and this one chose not to. They are all unrealistic, so if there's nothing exceptional here, then why are we assuming it'll make an impression? FiM usually goes over the top when they want to make an impression, whether it be story telling, or in body image.

Oh, so you bait everyone you have an argument with?

Just because kids today aren't super thin, doesn't mean they don't think society wants them to be super thin. In fact, being "pretty god damn fat" as you put it, would lower their self-esteem further; a lot of overweight people are overweight or obese due to something genetic. Being below the standard and being unable to change yourself is worse than being able to change yourself; in fact, a whole book was written about it, The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison. Said book deals with skin color and eye color, etc., things more widely known as genetic things one must live with, but the message still applies there that it is psychologically unhealthy to constantly be told you're not up to code by society's standards.

I toss aside your claim that children won't notice because of being captivated by McCarthy, both because that is bait and something I personally disagree with due to her track record as story editor.

And, I'm referring more to the stick figure dolls than the cartoon.

These are unrealistically proportioned cartoon characters, whose personalities stand far far greater than how they look. You're right that society creates an image which they try to get people to conform to, but those cues are being taken from actual people, not cartoon characters with unattainably unrealistic proportions. The real problem here, not the invented one created to push a narrative, is people like Lindsay Lohan, or a super thin fashion model. Those people stand out far more, and have a far greater voice in this problem, than a small niche market cartoon, with characters that aren't realistic looking enough for the audience to want to look like them anyways. And again, there's Rarity's gigantic sandwich, or Fluttershy's giant bowl of salad. Obviously nothing malicious is intended here, if the characters are eating normally.

>And, I'm referring more to the stick figure dolls than the cartoon.
neither of which are even in the realm of what a realistic looking body shape would be.

You're implying the replacements for Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, and Rarity are going to have a personality, let alone the same personality as the ones they're getting rid of to replace. We have no indicator that they're going to be characters and not props McCarthy can use to further Twilicorn's success.

And, I would say that the dolls do have a part in the problem. Look back at my The Bluest Eye example; the protagonist, who is black, gets a white baby doll and gets upset over it because it implies your child should be white. It's similar here; a "pretty god damn fat" girl gets a stick figure doll, with the implication that women should be skin and bones.

My justification is that Season 3 was poor relative to previous seasons, and McCarthy was in charge of Season 3 as story editor. Her decisions caused Twilight/Twilicorn to become overfocused, and what we know about Equestria Girls, endorsed by McCarthy, is that Twilicorn goes off without her friends and easily finds replacements, repeating the trend of overfocusing Twilight/Twilicorn and decreasing relevance of the other main characters.

>Her decisions caused Twilight/Twilicorn to become overfocused,
She's the central protagonist out of the mane 6, she'll always get the most focus. McCarthy countered by rarely using Twilight at all in the mid season episodes, which maintained a semblance of balance.

>and what we know about Equestria Girls, endorsed by McCarthy, is that Twilicorn goes off without her friends and easily finds replacements
In the pilot of FiM, Twilight "goes off" to Ponyville and "easily" makes friends with the mane 6. What's the problem?

>decreasing relevance of the other main characters.
You don't find it the least bit interesting that Twilight has to basically relive the process of building the mane 6, going into the experience with 65 episodes of precedent? Sure I would have greatly preferred if the story included the pony mane 6 off on some adventure, but that's not what Hasbro was going for here, so what's relevant is how DHX and their freelance writers execute what they have, as a result of the collaboration between them and Hasbro. They wouldn't do this if they didn't think they could pull it off.

What's so interesting about doing the same thin we did in the premiere and Return of Harmony, except for contrived reasons?
If anything, it makes it less interesting, because Twilight already knows what they're like, and thus, can easily form bonds with them.

I still keep that it would have been much better if instead of being clones of the Mane 6, the humans were completely different characters with only similarities to their Equestria counterparts.

it's also a show about friendship. Revisiting and seeing that same friendship play out again, and succeed is very interesting. It proves the mane 6 weren't a fluke, and perhaps suggests those 6 are meant to be friends no matter which form they take. Maybe there's other worlds out there where the mane 6 are friends as all kinds of species.

No, it's more based on the transforming superhero kind of shows and manga in Japan. Digimon did something similar with Digimon Frontier.

Not to mention, a Japanese series is more likely to compete with and/or rip off another Japanese series.

I think that's telling just how things might have been for her adjusting to the new position at a time where things could have been really hectic with the staff change up, and and cramming things into reduced season.

Less than 1% of the population suffers from medical or genetic conditions which cause obesity; we know this for a fact because at the turn of the 20th century, only about 1% of the US population was obese, and many of those people were due to lack of activity.

99% of excess body weight is caused by people being lazy lardos who stuff their face with too much food and don't get enough exercise. Virtually no one is fat due to medical conditions.

Yes, there are exceptions. They are very rare.

Welcome to reality.

And in any case, its a stupid argument anyway. I honestly don't think doll body shapes are actually that big of a deal; they aren't great, but whatever. They're stylized, and I'm honestly not that worried about them.

Really the biggest stupid of using actual human-shaped people is that a lot of innocent things become less innocent, like fashion. The ponies wear impossible, non-real-world outfits, when they wear anything at all, and fashion seems to be focused on the self and to be personal. Conversely, real world fashion is the opposite - look at their matching outfits. Short skirts and tank tops, the lot of them.

And gigantic ugly boots.

The earth is getting warmer. Objective fact. And yet how many people disagree, and think global warming/climate change aren't occurring?

Just because something is a fact doesn't mean that it isn't also an opinion. Much like how evolution is both a theory and a fact. You are suffering from what is known as a false dichotomy. There's nothing about being a fact that prevents something from being a theory or an opinion.

If I said "I think that dark matter will turn out to be the result of a lack of understanding of physics", and later on, lo and behold, it turns out we have to modify general relativity, does my opinion magically cease to be one? No! I had the opinion, and it was correct (factual). It was still an opinion. If I am wrong, it was STILL an opinion.

You seem not to understand what an opinion is.

I'm not opening the whole thread so I dont know who you're talking to, but I think when someone starts a conversation by saying, "Opinions can't be right or wrong" then it should be obvious that they are talking about subjective opinions. Depending on what definition you use, and depending on which common use of the word, yes opinion can be used to describe something either subjective or objective. But that isn't the definition being used here.

Basically you're just arguing semantics now without caring what the meaning is behind it. "He thinks an opinion can't be wrong? He must be stupid! Of course opinions can be wrong, because there is only One True way to use this word!"

You know what this whole discussion is just retarded as hell, because it is opinions on the word opinion. Which makes no goddam sense because we cant agree what that even means.

I understand opinions just fine.

>In general, an opinion is a belief about matters commonly considered to be subjective, i.e. it is based on that which is less than absolutely certain, and is the result of emotion or interpretation of facts.

It seems you are the one who is using the word differently than the common definition, in the way that you're taking facts and claiming that they're opinions. Just because someone thinks a fact is wrong, does not make the fact an opinion, it is just their opinion that the fact is wrong. (And they're most likely wrong if they think a true fact is false, unless they can prove that it is not true.)

>at the turn of the 20th century

Well, genetics change over a hundred years. New mutations cause different diseases or a new gene to show up. ASD is growing at a rapid rate, for example. I imagine the same thing could be happening with obesity. In my school growing up, I can think of four or five kids that had always been overweight. I knew a couple personally, and neither of them ate any more than, say, me. I asked about it, and both of them said they have a genetic disorder with their metabolism that causes them to be overweight. Unless I live in a strange area where this disorder is much more common than the rest of the world, I take it to mean that a sizable portion of obese kids are obese in part to genetics.

>The earth is getting warmer. Objective fact.

Global temperature is cyclic in nature, looking at temperature rates for the past 400,000+ years. We're warming right now; if you look at the chart in pic, temperatures should start going down, maybe not necessarily now, maybe not for a hundred years, but still they should be going down. I'd rather this not be the topic of our derail.

>If your opinion has no basis in reality, then your opinion is bad.

But, both sides here have been justifying their opinions throughout the argument. Both sides have presented a basis in reality.

>This is just a lie to make people feel better about themselves.

>>2522697
>global Warming
The thing is, you have to look at why it went down. Yes the stage we are in is unremarkable at the moment, but the safety net is being taken down. Couple that with the complete trend of global temperatures following greenhouse emissions and we have at least some idea that humans are making it worse and its not gonna get better soon

>obesity
Studies are continually showing that it is a combination...but eating habits are the major focus. This combined with the fact that being really obese isn't good for an average person at all, means that it should be tried to stop.

That being said skinny cartoons are not the way to do that. Heck, we are eating 74 less calories per day since 2003 and its still growing.

>Reagan
eh, Reagan spent too much without raising taxes (thus creating a huge deficit) and increased unemployment by a lot.

The entire point behind trickle down was that the employers could increase employment or increase wages...thus putting money in the hands of the people. It was a good idea until you found out that unemployment drastically RAISED and wages and production didn't increase much at all.

Well, it used to be that NASA spearheaded all these initiatives themselves, now because we mysteriously don't have a dime to spend on them, they merely take what they have, and give it to private industry. Space X, Virgin Galactic, Bigelow Aerospace, and whoever else will have to be the ones who do these things, and convinces the county that an increase in funding is worth it, even though it already is.

Congress doesn't care about NASA, unless they have major space industry business within their districts, so if the private industry goes through the roof, more congressmen will be compelled to represent their interests.

On a sidenote, I worked for Bigelow Aerospace for 3 months, back in late 2009. I did private security for their corporate and research HQ in vegas, and they sent me to Utah to a ranch Bigelow owns, on which he conducts paranormal and extraterrestrial research. My job at the ranch was to walk around from 8p-4a every night with a Black Labrador. If the dog started barking at something, OBVIOUSLY that means it sees a ghost, and I'd have to start snapping pictures with a digital camera.

Needless to say, Bigelow is apeshit insane.

Mine did.

There's not that much, besides a little bit of unseen footage from the movie where Twilight teleports in front of Sunset, telling her to stop, only for Sunset to teleport herself behind Twilight while leaving her cloak behind so it covers Twilight and Sunset dramatically reveals her identity.

Except that's not realy correct, because, guess what?

There are people who believe things are absolute and there are no other possible opinions on them, and they are -wrong-.

You can't define an opinion like that.

The actual definition of an opinion is:

>A view or judgment formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge.

>>2522694
Well, I run an LLC, so it would be more like a corporate oligarchy...

And well, there are correct and incorrect opinions. There is a difference between something which is a value judgement, to which there is no right or wrong answer (for example, murder is wrong) and something which has some sort of objective quality to it.

Now, it is (arguably) true that the "goodness" of media is somewhat subjective... but there are some things you can say objectively about music, pacing, ect. If you make a complaint based on some objective quality of a work, and it isn't true, then you can, in fact, have a wrong opinion.

Of course entertainment value is a subjective quality, but there are objective metrics that go into such.

>>2522697
>New mutations cause different diseases or a new gene to show up.
You understand nothing about evolution or genetics to say something this silly.

Only a few mutations happen, on average, per generation. Moreover, they are UNIQUE to each person. For a mutation to spread amongst the population, the progenitor of the mutation would have to be the ancestor of a huge percentage of the population.

In reality, we instead find that one person did NOT sire 33% of the modern American population. Ergo, it cannot be attributed to genetics.

Anyone who claims genetics causes obesity is a liar. There are some (very rare) conditions, such as tumors in various parts of your body, which can indeed cause obesity and which are heritable, but they are few and far between - less than 1% of the population possesses them.

>ASD is growing at a rapid rate, for example.
Actually ASD is not growing at all. What you're seeing in reality is diagnostic expansion - more or less, they changed the definition of ASD, and more people see mental health care professionals, AND more people ask for an ASD diagnosis, all of which combine to an increase in ASD.

Moreover, if ASD was actually increasing, it again, would not be genetic in origin. Instead, it would be environmental in origin, because, again, there's no way for the mutation to transfer laterally amongst a huge percentage of the population in a single generation.

Did you even TAKE biology?

>both of them said they have a genetic disorder with their metabolism that causes them to be overweight
Protip: They lied.

>Global temperature is cyclic in nature
Global temperature is cyclic in nature. The problem is that we're deviating from the cycle due to the addition of massive amounts of CO2 to the atmosphere in a very short period of time, amongst other greenhouse gases. It is a demonstrable scientific fact that CO2 and other greenhouse gases are better at trapping heat than a nitrogen-oxygen atmosphere is alone. That CO2 and other greenhouse gas concentrations are increasing in the atmosphere is incontrovertible, and the fact that the planet is warming up is also incontrovertible.

And yet people argue against it.

>Reagan
You mean the guy who is responsible for the massive national debt, who was senile when in office, who actually literally committed treason - twice - via arm and drug deals with the Contras and the Iranians? The guy who claimed responsibility for the collapse of the Soviet Union, when in reality it was caused by internal Soviet politics and the rise of the moderate Gorbechov, who decided to cut the USSR's losses and stop wasting a ton of money on their military?

Yeah he was a pretty bad president. His policies lead to a lot of problems, and the energy crisis and huge spike in gas prices had a large effect on the economy in part because he undid many of Carter's environmental and gas mileage regulations. I will note that part of the reason that the environmental movement became so radicalized was because of Reagan's policies towards completely wrecking the environment, and appointing someone who believed that by using up all of the natural resources on Earth we would make Jesus show up.

Oh, and he also appointed crazy people to the Supreme Court, which later resulted in Bush being selected over Al Gore in 2000, resulting in the entire catastrophe in Iraq and Afganistan, among other bad decisions.

>>2522705
The problem with Palin isn't that she's evil, it is that she's stupid, dangerously ignorant, and power hungry. The fact that she is ALSO evil and has abused her power in the past doesn't help though.

Realistically speaking? The real problem with asteroid mining is twofold: getting an asteroid into a stable Earth orbit takes quite a bit of energy, and then you have to mine said asteroid and bring said material back down to Earth safely, which takes even more energy. Even a skyhook doesn't fix that problem.

Basically it only becomes economically feasible when all of that is cheaper than digging into the crust.

well in FiM the ponies are a sort of undiscernable age, because their target is kids and adults, so making their ages ambiguous allows people of all ages to relate. In EQG, the target is girls around high school age, so it's far more precise as to how old they are.

Probably not. The statutes are actually fairly poorly written and not really designed with the idea that you might be banging something that is not a human but which is sapient. It probably wouldn't be illegal under the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution, which grants all persons in the US equal protection under the law.

I will note that, after briefly looking at said laws, they do not appear to be very well written in many cases. For instance, Alaska bans banging animals. Okay, fair enough. But HUMANS are animals. Theoretically, you could be charged with beastiality for having sex with another human in Alaska. Ironically, given that Equestrian ponies are probably not actually of common descent with creatures on Earth, it probably wouldn't actually cover them, as they are not, technically speaking, a member of animalia (i.e. animals), though I could see the point being contested in court.

On the other hand, Arkansas bans having sex with any dead or alive nonhuman vertebrate. So octopus sex is okay there. Whether or not a pony counts as a vertebrate is again a matter for the courts to interpret - cladistically no, but colloquially?

Note that it is legal to have sex with animals in more states than it is legal to get married in if you're gay.

I was talking about story pacing. Song pacing is a bit different, though it actually is possible to determine whether songs are having an effect on people - I've seen studies on, for instance, the impact of music on perceived food quality and the amount of time it takes to eat a meal before. You can indeed objectively monitor people's reactions to music, and there are certain rules to them, as musicians can tell you.

More seriously, your attitude stinks and you don't really know what you're talking about. What were you expecting me to say?

You're wrong. That the increase in obesity rates is not genetic is absolute fact. You can't deal with that? Then you're gonna have a hard time dealing with things that are less clear cut, if you can't even accept things that are as obvious as that because they contradict your world view.

Your opinions are bad and you should feel bad. But you can always change your opinions to the correct ones.

Is In the Aeroplane Over The Sea a bad album because Jeff Magnum was uninteresting in his chords and wen't WAYYYY outside his range vocally?

They don't have to be literally anorexic. What people say when they say they look anorexic is that they were designed to be way too fucking thin. People aren't criticising the characters, they're criticising the designs that someone made for them.

that's the whole point. they're cartoon characters, not humans. They aren't even realistically human looking, so it's foolhardy to hold them to our appearance standards, especially if you're going to make such a damning accusation against them.

Yes, I understand the whole "it's a cartoon, not supposed to be realistic" thing, but I still don't like how stick-thin they are. Their entire design in general with stick-thin bodies, melon heads and odd clothing style is just completely unappealing to me.

of course that just searching for problems. the color of a human should not be a theme of discussion, because there should not be pony humans to begin with.

to be fair with this quote.

i dont think this movie is going to be an abomitation and an fucking insult to the entire public watching it....

but just the concept and the notes they have to play to cover the starting idea.

but just because it is going to have a magic fight i dont think it is going to be good. and it is going to be little funny things, but the entire premise and the obligatory things they will have to play hurts me.

i will not be able to enjoy this thing. and will take months until be able to watch it.

while we are going to have people here claiming how it is good, and not as bad like people talk about it. and im have to sit down shut down because i have not seen it.

for example, i think equestriaguy and tgbs are going to find it really good. while i have to sit down shut up because i will not be able to see it.

Yeah, pretty much. Sure, the movie won't be a horrid abomination, but it won't be nearly as good as FIM, solely because of the premise. I don't like cliche highschool plots, I don't like the fact that they're stick-thin teenage humans with melon heads and odd clothing, I don't like how there's going to be cheesy pop songs, etc... Perhaps in the eyes of most it won't be too bad, but the whole thing is just looking terrible, for me.

Though I am somewhat dreading the whole "It was good!" vs "It was bad!" arguments that are going to ensue for the 6 months until S4 that we've got.

EQG might actually end kinda tragically for the HUmane 5. They're going to lose Twilight back to Equestria. Imagine if Twilight went back to Canterlot at the end of the FiM pilot.

Especially because while it's no big deal to Twilight, who has alternate versions of them back home, to the others she's essentially leaving them for replacements. Now imagine if she went back to Canterlot in episode 2, only after telling the others that she already has friends back home just like them, so she doesn't need them anymore.

Probably just alternate universes can be lacking or have people that don't exist in other ones.

Sort of like the Turtles Forever special, where the 80s Shredder and Krang are able to find the 00s Shredder because he exists in that universe, but a 00s Krang doesn't exist and can't be found (technically there was a Krang, but he was more of a shout out than an actual character, so he probably didn't count in the grand scheme of things).

probably twilight is going to make some kind of talk with his human friends.
and how they will always with her, because friendship is magical, yada yada.

and twilight get back and look to her friends, who look like her new friends, who looked like her old friends.

so friendship is magic, and sunset shimmer is left behind. becoming the twilight of the human world, so now they can run her parallel show (well, this last part is really stupid)

beside, probably they can just live with the entire human ponies with out caring the stuff. and making everyone a princess, and doing what ever their jobs mandate.

if the woman carrying this thing thinks turn ponies into teenage high school girls is the most amazing thing ever in the entire universe. i dont know what other friking things they will just add later, just for the sake of coping something else.

like i said, of course he thinks is amazing, the movie wasnt going to insult his public intelligence.... but at the end is just high school for the sake of high school. add some battles and stuff and everyone is going to think is perfect.

At best I feel it's going to be weaker than the weakest episode of season 3, take your pick. At worst, it kills My Little Pony for this generation until they backpedal into g3/3.5 territory. So really, unless they're making Equestria Girls an ongoing thing, it's a win-win. (Since they won't be able to rape G4 anymore than they already have.)
Still hate the premise, sounds like the execution is going to be par for most, well above par for Hasbro asskissers, but subpar for me.

It doesn't matter. The damage is already done. They fucked up by making this movie in the first place. It's not a matter of quality, it's a matter of how much damage the impact will cause, which is the only thing that interests some of us because we have genuine care for the actual show.

Like what has previously been said, the show staff aren't really going to talk badly about it, especially when it's just releasing.

Sibsy said she was really excited for MMDW, and we all know how that turned out.

That and, yeah, they probably don't care as much as some of us do. They don't seem to care about the humans or cliche highschool crap or any of that. Whereas for someone like me, "humans+highschool" almost completely ruins it.

Apparently Twilight can't fly. So they've retconned the S3 finale, wonderful.

He also said that he personally doesn't think it's worth a long drive, and referred to it as "the worst of the 2-part episodes", or something like that.

I don't get the whole "will this be the end for FiM?" thing at all.

It sounds like it begins and ends in Equestria, but other than that it doesn't sound like it's going to appear much in the actual show. I'm sure you could go from S3 to S4 and never see Equestria Girls, without missing any story.

MLP is a franchise aimed at little girls, and it's great so other age groups started watching it. But franchises aimed at young children throw up all sorts of stuff and we're not going to like all of it.

If EQG is great too then we'll have another fun thing from the wider pony universe, like how the comics aren't strictly show canon. If it's bad, then ignore it and there'll be some actual pone along in due course.

Think of it like pink Celestia ("my wings are so pretty!"), if it helps. Or something kitschy for livestreams like A Very Minty Christmas.

I just don't see how Hasbro deciding that they want some of that Monster High money is a betrayal of the ideals of Friendship is Magic. The show's still there, and at least with the same creative team there's at least a chance it'll be good.

Powerpuff Girls and Powerpuff Girls Z both exist and just because PGZ is terrible doesn't mean Powerpuff Girls in general is RUINED FOREVER or anything.

According to another person who saw it, this is a quick rundown of the movie:

-Train pulls up to crystal empire
-Twilight complains about being uncomfortably as a princess
-Crown gets stolen, Sunset trips over Spikes tail, so Twilight chases after her and she disappears in a mirror.
-Celestia explains Sunsets backstory, Twilight goes into portal alone, since all 6 ponies going in would mess up the world, Spike runs in after Twilight.
-Twilight appears from a statue in front of the highschool
-Twilight explores the school, and over hears Sunset being mean to Fluttershy
-Twilight sticks up for Fluttershy and forms a rivalry with Sunset
-Twilight finds out Fluttershy gave crown to Celestia
-Celestia asks Twilight if she wants the crown she can win it by becoming princess of the fall dance
-Twilight finds out the rest of the mane 6 are in the school, and that they were friends at one point, but not anymore from meddling of Sunset
-Twilight fixes the friendship
-Twilight wins Princess title
-Sunset is mad, steals it and becomes a demon creature
-They have a short battle
-Twilight goes back to her world

Yeah, sounds about right to be on par with "meh" episodes of FIM.

But, uh..

-Celestia asks Twilight if she wants the crown she can win it by becoming princess of the fall dance

Why can't Twilight just say she's from another world and needs it or else bad things will happen? NOPE, GOTTA WIN THE PROM!

If she's this vocal about the product, in spite of it being very obviously a corporate mandate from Hasbro, then I guess she must be legitimately excited. I know that if I were in her shoes, unless the internal production was a disaster, I would most likely be proud of my work as well. I suppose that was a silly thing for me to say. Call me a fool, if you must.

Actually it's more a rehashing of the pilot episodes, what with Twilight meeting 5 new friends and then working together with them to overcome the conflict of the movie, which is...getting a crown from a prom dance.

Shocking. But seriously; if someone who legitimately ABHORED the concept of humanized ponies. Hated the idea of selling humanized versions of ponies as fashion dolls, and gave the movie a chance and thought it was as outstanding as Equestria Guy, I'd put way more thought about this whole thing than just writing it off as a one shot spinoff that I hope is doomed to failure.

From everything we've both heard so far, it seems extremely unlikely either of us will put it above "meh"-tier. It could be finely crafted. But it's a finely crafted turd. Doesn't matter if you paint it pink with yellow polkadots and throw glitter on it, polish it until it shines and people nod their heads approvingly. It's still a turd underneath.

CMC, Snips, Snail, DT+SS

>2. Is it newbie friendly?
Ya, I'd say. It does a good job setting up Twi as a reluctant princess, explains who SS is and what's at stake, and then executes well through out.

>3. How do they acknowledge AU Twi?
Pinkie Pie asks her if she has a twin living in a big city who has a dog named Spike who looks exactly like hers.

>4. How much of it is "just for the older Audience"? Is there any actual wit or unexpected jokes?
It's FiM humor. Twilight struggling with her wings was really funny. There's physical comedy, and Pinkie had some great scenes.

>5. Does the "Former student" part ever really come to play? Is she just evil then good?
Celestia explains that Sunset was her student shortly before she began teaching Twilight. Sunset wanted power, which Celestia wasn't ready to give her, so she escaped to the AU. She seems to be as capable with magic as Twilight is.

with that characteristics, she cant be leaved like an evil guy who deserve to die.
and for the after pics where they show her crying, yea, pretty much.....

so if my guess of how the movie is going, dont like the concept, at least for your reaction i should expect me to go "oh damn, it have really good stuff, but god dammit stupid teenage girl universe of manipulative rip off"?, or "oh my even i hated the entire concept, mcCarty have showed me the way of the future should be HUmane 7, fuck real ponies and what ever faust though at any time, The show is death, LONG LIVE THE SHOW!!!!"?

>1. How was the tone compared to other pony episodes?
Well, besides them wasting absolutely no time getting Twi to the EQG world, and the sad, quicker than expected departure, it was paced really well. It didn't feel like they were hussling through the story in order to get it within an edited timetable, like the FiM 2 parters do.

>2. How were the songs...please be descriptive
The song from the 2nd trailer, which I and everyone else hated, was actually really damn good once you hear it in context with the movie, and you hear the whole thing. The trailer doesn't adequately portray the meaning of the song. It wasn't some out of universe montage, it was actually a flash mob in order to unite a very divided student body to vote for Twilight, against Sunset, as princess of the fall formal. The winner acts as a student body president.

Also, because we see that Sunset has won it the last 3 years, it's easy to discern that they're seniors, and therefore very likely to be 17-18.

>3. Why on earth should the mane six accept Shimmer back
He was crying and stuff in the end. I guess being a good friend means you can forgive and forget.

>how did she just get reformed?
TASTE THE RAINBOW, MOTHER FUCKER!

The HUmane 6 sttod before the Demon Sunset, and Twilight went on a monologue about that even though Sunset wears the crowd, she can never use its powers. Those powers belong to those who have discovered the magic of friendship. Then the crown powers up the HUmane 6, in a very Digimon-like sequence, and they blast Sunset into a giant hole in the ground. a Reformed Sunset emerges in tears, as she realizes the true power of friendship, and how egregious her actions have been against everyone at Canterlot High.

>4. How was twilight characterized? Not in good or bad...but describe her character.
You've seen her character the past 65 episodes. She very reluctantly is a crown, and fears the prospect of getting a kingdom of her own. She can't even keep her wings folded in bed, they spring open (very funny scene).

>5. Chance of s4 love interest?
Uh, she had a crush on the human Flash Sentry, so it is a possibility, but highly unlikely, given that he's a Crystal Empire guard, and knowledge of Flash would require continuity across IPs.

Similar to Luna in the pilot. I will say that the mane 6 put on one hell of a show, not just in the end, but throughout the movie, in order for Sunset to have this epiphany.

>>2523012
It seems like it was 3 years prior, since she's wont he crown 3 times before. That was probably the last time the gateway was open. With that, I'd guess 10 moons= one year, since the gateway opens every 30 moons, and she was there for what could be assumed to be 3 years.

The mane 6 were friends as freshmen, but Sunset broke up their friendship, and has pretty much controlled the school since then.

>1. What were the OTHER songs like?
There was a song when Twilight first walked into the school. She was basically bewildered as to the nature of the world she was in, and her physical state.

There was the flash mob song, which we heard in the 2nd trailer, and then another song when Snips and Snails trashed the decorations for the fall formal, and the entire school body united to repair everything.

>2. Is it serious, or id it more comedic?
Comedic, with some dark undertones if you take the consequences for failure seriously. Sunset said she wanted to use her army of high schoolers to invade Equestria, and she threatened to smash the gateway at one point, which was only a bluff to get Twilight to give up her crown. Twilight declined, thinking that Sunset wanted dominion over the alternate universe, and saying that Equestria could carry on without her, but this world wouldn't, if no one was there to stop her from taking control over it.

>3. Ok, is the reason why no one else but twilight could go adequately explained
It would upset the balance between the worlds, and cause an unelaborated havoc, potentially worse than what Sunset could cause.

>>2523016
>4. Why should the rainbow reform her?
it's the magic of friendship. She was literally bathed in it.

>With luna it killed off the force controlling her...was there a force controlling her or did she just randomly become nice?
This was entirely of her own doing. She bore witness to the mane 6 reuniting as friends, despite Sunset's best efforts, and then was blasted by friendship in a spectacular display. I wouldn't call that random, I'd call that a "come to Jesus" moment.

>5. How was sunset characterized? Was she as shallow as peoplw are making her out to be?
Oh, she was an absolute femoral artery. Completely unapologetic. If she does become friends with the mane 6, she'll have to earn this.

>6. What were the connebts on the "youtube video"
Basically people saying that they thought the CMC's performance was funny, and they ran off thinking it was great. twilight almost tried to stop them, having seen that all before.

So, from what I've been told, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, and Rarity can't go to the AU world because of a paradox, having copies and shit. That's why only Twilicorn and Spike can go.

The Crystal Empire isn't exactly xenophobic. Their Prince is a non Crystal Pony.

All things considered, and the display the mane 6 put on to emphasis the shear power of friendship, it's not surprising she had this "come to Jesus" moment, like I said above.

>>2523029
The portal was in Canterlot, where Sunset was studying under Celestia, but was moved to TCE in hopes Sunset would return, and Cadence could convince her to stay. I guess the only plot hole I can find in that is that you'd think Twilight would know, or at least heard of Sunset.

Are the reasons for possible interdimensional distortions limited to having a counterpart or not? )))
And even if they are, it could be explained away by the proximity limit between the counterparts needed to avoid problems. And while e2Twilight is in another city at closest, pretty much all the rest are gathered in the same building complex.

that would be an out of universe explanation, but I'd use the term "central protagonist", since even as what could be seen as the main character, Twilight is still entirely dependent on her friends, so it's not like she carries them. She is a proven leader, however, so she does give them a focused purpose and direction.

Ok, seriously, that's a fucking retarded reason.
They might as well have said that only Twilight can go because the script said so.
Seriously, how the FUCK giving Twilight a set of 5 friends EXACTLY like her Equestrian Friends makes any kind of sense? I tell you what that is, it's a forced attempt at crowbarring more drama in the movie.

Twilight didn't want to explain that she's a horsey from another dimension. if she did, she sure as hell wouldn't be competing for her crown, so she went along with it. Fluttershy turned the crown in to Celestia when it entered the AU, through the gateway, and bonked her on the head. The gateway is one side of the base of the giant statue, by the way.

Sunset's reformation at the end would have been far more abrupt, and inexplicable, if she hadn't seen the HUmane 6 come together as friends throughout the movie, and then at the end with with power of friendship. This also was necessary because it allows them to create more EQG movies, without having to involve our mane 6. This HUmane 6 is totally independent of ours.

The imbalance made it possible to create two distinct mane 6's, without having ours need to travel to the AU in order for a script to work.

Twilight basically serves as a link from FiM to link to EqG. Rather than just start out with making the series stand on its own, I guess they tried using a familiar character to carry over some fans.

But it seems like a flimsy way to "start a new series". If they're "starting from scratch", they'd be better off with a new IP altogether, instead of making a contrived AU for an existing IP.

Twilight wouldn't have accomplished jack shit if it wasn't for her human friends. They're the reason twilight won the Fall formal, they're the reason Twilight's crown was able to activate as the EoH, and they fought right beside Twilight the entire time at the end. Without them, she would have been trapped in AU, Sunset would have had her army, and conquered Equestria. So yes, they played a huge role.

>>2523069
>a lot of stuff in season 4 will be about her and this stuff.
That gets resolved in the S4 premiere, according to Meghan. Every Twilight episode after that shouldn't be related to any concern about her princesshood. She even feels more comfortable as princess at the end of the movie.

I think that even got indirectly confirmed at Denver Comic Con. Like how Cook's original pitch for the Rarity micro was rejected for being too similar to a season 4 episode, Zahler's pitch for Twilight's was rejected for the same reason, and he didn't know she'd be a princess.

OH! that reminds me. there's a scene when Fluttershy and twilight meet. They reennact their pony meeting almost exactly. Fluttershy even pushed Twilight out of the way when she sees Spike for the first time.

>How comparable is it to the focus Twilight got in the pilot?
She is still the ship that steers the episode, and ofcourse the story revolves around her, but the importance of friendship is still as paramount as in the pilot, perhaps it's exhibited even more strongly since they had far more time and experience with the characters.

YOU CAN'T SAY THAT. You can't say "oh, that's how it happened in this episode". It may make sense from our perspective, but does it make sense from the world perspective? A plotpoint should happen if it makes sense within the context of the story, not because the writer really wanted it to be.
Besides, that's even less reason to have it be like the pilot. Wouldn't it have been better to showcase an entirely new story to show the possibilities of this world, instead of reinforcing the belief that yes, this is a watered-down version of Equestria?

Oh I think I see what you mean. She was made a princess because of her character qualities, and her ability to create magic using friendship. Using friendship implies having friends, which means she can't conceivably do this, or anything on her own.

well they sure as heck weren't subservient. I wish I could remember the quote, but at the end Principle Celestia says something about being a princess. I'd roughly be paraphrasing in saying that she said it's better to earn respect and friendship, as a princess, than it is to force those around you to bow.

it's handled like a presidential election. There were attack videos and everything. Twilight won because of the flash mob in the cafeteria, and because she and the HUmane 5 lead the rebuilding of the fall formal decorations. The formal would have been postponed if not for that.

another question.

in the trailer we saw princess cadence becoming exposition princess for a moment... while giving explanation about elemetns of harmony.

princess cadence role is more "active" compared to princess luna for example?
im guessing luna spend a lot of time with out speaking, while cadence have a ton of fun with twilight

im not a luna fan or a lunatic.... but i find a little weird and "convenient" how cadence will have more to do than the other one who should know maybe something about elements of harmony.

Fluttershutter! This is exactly the same behavior that got me angry the last time. You're assuming that McCarthy apparently wanted to make fun of people who had issues with the bowing thing, which is assuming that was a big enough of an issue with the rest of the fanbase to be known as an issue, that she somehow managed to get the voice actors and animators to go back and rerecord the lines and redo the animation only a few months before the movie was set to be released.

Celestia was all but absent between when Twilight discovers she has to win the crown, and the fall formal itself. Luna appears when photos appear of Twilight trashing the fall formal decorations, which were fakes created by Sunset. Snips and Snails trashed the decorations.

>>2523149
My original wording implied Twilight was necessary to fix the HUmane 5, after Sunset broke them up through deceit, but not necessary at all for them to have become friends to begin with.

>Also: when did your quote happen, exactly? Just to get a reference where because I'm having a real hard time finding it.

Going to chime in my disagreement with that. For me, Equestria Girls wasn't the Green Lantern type disaster I feared that it might be, but I definitely wouldn't put it at least 3 Tiers below the Return of Harmony (which is in my Top 5).

At its' best and at its' worst, it was average. Don't get me wrong, Equestria Girls has its' moments of brilliance, but it also has its' moments of whackness too. (The whole entire confirmation of Twilight having a double in this world nearly KILLS the whole thing dead) Depending on how you're feeling, you'll leave with a smile on your face, or you'll feel a bit sad that it couldn't rise up higher than it did, but it won't leave you angry.

As for where I would rank it... just for full disclosure, I rank FiM episodes in 7 - 8 Tiers, so if Tier 1 included Suited for Success, Sweet and Elite, Lesson Zero and Return of Harmony and if Tiers 7 - 8 included Spike at your Service, Mysterious Mare do Well and Magical Mystery Cure (which earned its' spot by taking two ideas and mashing them into Hamburger), Equestiria Girls would be at the bottom of Tier 4 at best, and the middle of Tier 6, at worst. It's not terrible, but it's not worth hailing the way we hailed A Canterlot Wedding (which was a big fucking mistake).

Here's what he listed:

The Bad
-The bad is sadly the story itself. There are so many contrivances and plot points that depend on gross stupidity on the part of the characters. Case in point: Spike puts Twilight's crown and Element of Harmony on the nightstand in their room. He might as well have put a note next to it saying "Steal me."
-They spent way too much time on Twilight bungling around and not behaving like a proper human. We're probably half way through the movie before the others start actually helping her. Twilight was also a little too helpless in this. I would think she would be more resourceful.
-How they handled Sunset Shimmer was really clunky. They were really heavy handed with how much of a Imbicile she was. She was out to get whatever she wanted whenever she wanted and pity the fools in her way. She actually went to the trouble to hack people's phones and email accounts to drive them apart. She stole the actual fall formal crown to try to swap it with Twilight's. She had Snips and Snails commit attacks of vandalism. Her evil plan was to mind control the student body and take them back through the portal as an army to take over Equestria. Then she has a sudden heel face turn after she gets zapped by the Elements on Harmony. I'm sorry, but someone that mean, manipulative, and moral bankrupt is not going to suddenly turn over a new leaf at the drop of a hat.
-Sunset Shimmer's gargoyle form was also really ugly in motion.
-The parts in the Crystal Empire were really rushed to set up Sunset and Twilight going through the portal. They were there for about 10 minutes in beginning and like 2 at the end.
-They tried too hard to point out all the ponies as humans. It really interrupted the flow of the story.

Honestly, I think this a simple issue of not using the old saying, "Show. Don't tell." I'll bet if they somehow showed us that this causes strain on the universe instead of just telling us it does so, there wouldn't be nearly as much drama on the subject as there currently is.

That also reminds me. EquestriaGuy, what's the deal with Twilight and Brad? Does Brad become a pony? Do they flirt at the end?

>Case in point: Spike puts Twilight's crown and Element of Harmony on the nightstand in their room. He might as well have put a note next to it saying "Steal me."
A night stand, in the middle of the crystal castle, patrolled by guards. if she had left it at a McDonald's, I'd agree, but not in a shut room in the middle of the night, in a secure castle.

>-They spent way too much time on Twilight bungling around and not behaving like a proper human.
and if she'd learned to be a human too quickly, those same people would be howling like cats. Case in point: Twilight supposedly knowing how to fly at the end of MMC, and the reaction to that.

>We're probably half way through the movie before the others start actually helping her.
Good, that's the middle of the second act. It's be ridiculous if they dropped their quarrels at the drop of a hat, just to help random purple girl.

>Twilight was also a little too helpless in this. I would think she would be more resourceful.
If she had been more direct, she could have lost everything, or it would have absolutely killed the story.

>How they handled Sunset Shimmer was really clunky. They were really heavy handed with how much of a Imbicile she was
preposterous. She orchestrated the break up of the HUmane 5, before Twilight was on scene, then she humiliated Twilight at least twice, and proved a knowledge of Equestrian magic beyond what Twilight knows.

>She was out to get whatever she wanted whenever she wanted and pity the fools in her way. She actually went to the trouble to hack people's phones and email accounts to drive them apart
I don't see how that makes her an imbecile.

>She stole the actual fall formal crown to try to swap it with Twilight's.
The Fall Formal crown doesn't have the power to turn you into a demon.

>She had Snips and Snails commit attacks of vandalism.
As any baddie with henchmen would. Wasn't part of Sombra's criticism that he had no henchmen?

>Her evil plan was to mind control the student body and take them back through the portal as an army to take over Equestria
Which puts her on par with Chrysalis

>Then she has a sudden heel face turn after she gets zapped by the Elements on Harmony. I'm sorry, but someone that mean, manipulative, and moral bankrupt is not going to suddenly turn over a new leaf at the drop of a hat.
It was quite a show they put on. Plus you'd have to consider all that Sunset saw when she was plotting and failing against Twilight due to the blossoming friendship. I've called it a "come to Jesus" moment a few times so far in the thread.

>Sunset Shimmer's gargoyle form was also really ugly in motion.
no comment. opinions are opinions.

>The parts in the Crystal Empire were really rushed to set up Sunset and Twilight going through the portal
Agreed, but it's not like anything was left ambiguous, or you felt lost.

>They were there for about 10 minutes in beginning and like 2 at the end.
Keep in mind, we're talking about 10 minutes out of the first act, and 2 minutes out of the 3rd. You don't want to draw too much out of either.

>They tried too hard to point out all the ponies as humans. It really interrupted the flow of the story.
I guess you'd have to be a brony, and one who is preoccupied with spotting characters, in order to be distracted by something like that.

They clearly have a crush on each other, but it goes absolutely nowhere, and every time it comes up, it's played off in a comedic fashion. Flash and pony Flash are separate people. There isn't any flirting, just a couple awkward moments. They eventually dance.

Remember Twilight's dance from S&E? They both start doing it.

Very much how 2300 A.D. lost internal cohesiveness by adding a random " shit stops working because we say so" rule to the stutterwarp, unexplain mechanisms like that are signs of bad story telling and greatly break immersion.

>Minor
>Dismissive

Once again, I have to disagree, because this movie confirms the biggest problem I have with the series lately. Sure, I have aired my misgivings on the series "overfocusing" on Twilight Sparkle before, but it's never truly hit me until seeing Equestria Girls. Ever since the Crystal Empire aired, it feels like this show has (most likely) unintentionally made the rest of the Mane 6 come across as headless without Twilight Sparkle. From the Idiot Balls, to the complete absence of agency, Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie are well on their way to becoming a sideshow, instead of being stars in their own right. Equestria Girls fails to turn the tide in that regard, and that's the biggest shame I can come up with at the moment.

They're related because it confirms that there's no kind of rule that there can't be more than 1 of the same person in the same universe.

Thus, there is no real reason that the other 5 couldn't go with Twilight, besides the BS excuse of "oh, it would cause disturbance".

He didn't know anything. I don't know why the guy said that. After the HUmane 5 became friends again, when Twilight needed to rally them to help her win the crown, she was going to admit who she really was. Out of nowhere, AU Pinkie spits it all out, every detail, with 100% accuracy, as if she was somehow psychic.

After Twi returned to Equestria, she was going to tell them how she seemed to know Flash Sentry, and again, inexplicably, Pinkie spits out every detail with 100% accuracy.

Earlier in the movie she accused Twilight of being psychic, but she seems to be psychic herself.

The reason the other 5 couldn't go is because it would cause an imbalance, which would wreck havoc worse than Sunset Shimmer would cause. This was from Celestia herself.

Sending one pony through was a 6x smaller, acceptable risk, and only logical since it's her crown. The importance of the crown mandated this risk be taken.

Thank you for pointing this out, because that's more or less what I was going to say in response to >>2523235. If the movie is going to go out of its' way to establish that there is another Twilight Sparkle in that world, they might as well have had everyone go through the Portal, where Sunset Shimmer scrambles their memories, making it that they all hated each other. From there, each could've served as an active agent to rediscovering their friendship and using it to beat her. Just like how Issue #4 could've been the Mane 6 beating back Chrysalis, what we got feels so damn lazy to what we could've gotten.

That wasn't explained. I think you're thinking of it in terms of antimatter. It's not like the world would explode if they met.

It seems like either it's inherently dangerous for beings of one dimension to be in another, and that danger increases with the number who cross over, or simply the realization that there's another dimension would cause an existential crisis. Or it could be that the two lifestyles are simply incompatible. We now have seen that Sunset alone did to the Au world when she crossed.

It's not really whether or not they have counterparts, it's that each universe has a specific headcount, when you start adding anomolies that aren't supposed to be a part of that world it starts fucking with the fabric of reality. Or to put it simpler, wibbly wobbly, timey wimey stuff.

"Inherent danger" doesn't sound very good, either. It's not a very solid explanation.

And I don't think SS going to the AU changed anything about her. Seeing as she was in there for at least 3 years, that's a lot of time for her to manipulate a school into loving and fearing her.

So, since Flash Sentry was the last part that could possibly connect EQG with the show itself, aside from direct references from the main characters, can we dispel EQG out of FiM canon now?

I guess so. SS is staying in the AU, and Flash Sentry is not showing up in S4, so it's not too much of a stretch to label EQG as being non-canon/alternate continuity.

She clearly changed over time, but the danger was there all the same. She did eventually cause havoc, and if Equestria sends the entire mane 6 to AU, either they fail and the EoH are gone, or they succeed through some methods and expose the existence of this alternate dimension, as well as any collateral along the way.

You solve that by having a short scene where the mind wipe happens, flash forward to Twilight waking up in her house with the "worst headache ever", and having a nagging feeling that something is really wrong. As for their human doppelgangers, you could also have SS put the souls of the Equstria Mane 6 into their bodies, to make the whole entire nut harder to crack. Not the best idea ever, but it puts them all in the action.

As for how the Crown gets lost... anyone else want to tackle that, because I have work to do. If not, I'll make a post about that later.

and like I said earlier, doing it this way creates a clear demarcation between the pony mane 6, and this mane 6. Now we have two separate groups, both which can have independent development, specifically tailored to their setting. We don't have to force the mane 6 back into the AU every time Hasbro wants to have an adventure.

Nope, doesn't work. Any age similarity only applies to Twilight, because everyone else is an AU copy, aka a different character.

His main argument is that the main6 in FIM are teenagers because DHX was consciously trying to make "adult" characters look more adult in S2/S3, and because of that, he deemed everything in S1 to be irrelevant.

I pointed out how that was false because there were a lot of "adult"-looking ponies in S1, and asked him to prove that there were more "adult"-looking ponies in S2/S3 than S1, but he just ignored me.

I also pointed out that Twilight looks the same age as her mother, but he played it off as "Twilight's mother is a joke/reference design"....really?

I think the whole "imbalance" thing is similar to a theory of time travel, where you absolutely should not meet yourself, or you might wipe out time. Remember Marty having to avoid himself in Back to the Future 2?

Imagine what would happen if Alternate Twilight met the Main Universe Twilight. It's a good thing AU Twilight isn't present.

that's actually a plausible explanation for why she was simply living elsewhere, other than the fact that she only moved from Equestria's big city because of her specific circumstances.

Well, this goes in the "watch this to inform yourself and NEVER TOUCH IT EVER AGAIN" pile.
I mean, this already made Sunset Shimmer only have a token connection to Celestia, and Sunset Shimmer herself is flatter than cardboard, so there goes the only thing I was remotely interested in this movie.

"The fact she keeps "bumping" into him would make me think they just want this to be a recurring gag on Twilight's part, that she's being a clumsy-pants because she's not really sure how to handle Brad, but although he may be interested she isn't thinking much about that. And then at the end, bumping into each other again one last time, would make a nice little closing to their acquaintance in the movie.

That the mane 6 actually tease her for having a crush though, the writers want to put this in the audience's head rather than let it close. Why would they want to put it in our head? Because they want us to know that Twilight DOES have a crush. That's what worries me about that scene and why I think it's important."

Yeah, Flash Sentry is pretty bland. He exists entirely to be the straight up okay alpha male that any young girl with a functioning pair of ovaries wouldn't mind being his plus one. His entire contribution to the movie is to have Twilight Sparkle repeatedly run into him, anime trope style, and apparently he broke up with Sunset Shimmer before the movie even started, which introduces a certain question of race relations considering Sunset Shimmer was originally a unicorn from Equestria.

Oh yeah, and whoever was saying that the Guard Pony who is Brad's equivalent knew what was happening on Doug-Earth was wrong or lying. No, he doesn't. Pinkie Pie does, somehow, but I'm pretty sure that guard was completely off-scene by then. But Twilight Sparkle pretty much flat out says she doesn't really know (literally: "sort of" knows) the Flash Sentry who is the guard in Equestria. Whereupon her friends make fun of her for having a crush, but apparently we've developer confirmation that he won't be showing up in S4. So this ship will probably be a fanon exclusive.

Gee, it's almost as if what Dee said about taking the word of an Anon from 4chan whose only proof are screenshots with no context with a grain of salt was right all along. A lesser pony might be inclined to say I told you so... as it turns out Dee is a lesser pony, I told you all so!

Alright, my ban has now ended and I can go back to my thoughts on this so far.

Every piece of music that's been leaked I have disliked. It's not like MMC where it's decent to good music ruined by the episode of which it originates; the actual songs are bad.

And the ending from the last thirteen minutes? It's just like Issue number fucking four of the IDW comics. Villain gives Twilight/Twilicorn ultimatum, Twilight/Twilicorn decides, villain does not hold their end of the bargain, villain attacks Twilight/Twilicorn. Twilight/Twilicorn gets power boost, curbstomps villain.

Equestria Girls has the benefit here of actually making the Mk. IIs useful in the fight, but has the drawback of CONSTANTLY MENTIONING HOW TWILICORN IS A FUCKING PRINCESS DURING THE FIGHT.

And the bowing thing was misconstrued; I claim EquestriaGuy only mentioned it as further bait, so that I would react and so he could claim it to be not a big deal, which it wasn't but he still made out as such.

And, we had Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, and Rarity just... waiting. Nope, just like the Mk IIs require Twilicorn to be able to function, the actual other main characters can't so much as live a day of their lives without having Twilicorn watching over them. Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck. I have not yet found a single redeemable factor about this movie. It even seems to have Double Rainboom-level pandering by shoving in meme after meme after meme.

I thought about you a few times while I was watching the movie. The movie directly confronts Twilight Sparkle being uncomfortable with being a princess at several points throughout, it's a central underlying theme of the entire movie, and I was thinking somebody who is really hung up on disliking Twilicorn might want to go see it for that alone.

Especially in the first five minutes or so. It's adorable.

>>2523385
They so should have snuck Lyra into that "what are hands?" scene somehow. I looked and did not notice her, though.

Also, is it me, or does it seems to me that there was some foreshadowing that The Great And Powerful Trixie is going to become a reoccurring character? She shows up outside of a vending machine a couple times and, the second time in particular, it was sort of unnecessary unless it was hinting something.

Secondly, even if I were, there is exactly one movie theater playing it in my state, and it's nearly two hours each way to see it. I'm not spending four hours driving to go see something I know I'd hate and that every single piece of information and footage I've seen has supported that, up to and including EquestriaGuy calling it spectacular when he and I always have opposite opinions.

If you went to the showing I did, you'd find bronies outnumbered the parents and little kids by 3 to 1. But then, this particular theater is somewhat beatnik, and I think that they were getting a visit from the Portland brony chapter [www.meetup.com] at the time, and if you know anything about Portlandia, they prize being weird.

But, that said, no worries, catch it when it gets aired on TV or leaked, you unrepentant pirates, you. This movie might be the balm your Twilicorn wounds sorely needed. If not, I bet the opening episodes of S4 are going to go in that direction.

Someone asked a question about if the others were treated equally as Twilight, and he said they weren't treated as servants and tried to tie it in with the friendship lesson that was given at the end. I believe he didn't mention it to set you off just as much as I don't believe McCarthy wrote that line with the intention of making fun of people who had an issue with the bowing scene from MMC.

*Thinks about the treatment of Snips and Snails humans during the movie.*

Well, I wouldn't say this perspective is completely unsupported...

Come to think of it, I think Snips and Snails got more camera time than Sunset Shimmer.

I only saw a few kids, and actually I saw an equal number of girls and boys. It was almost all adults at the theater I went to.
Honestly, I think it's rude to say you don't want to go see a movie because the theater is "full of kids". They don't care that you're there, and if they even notice, they'll probably be happy to see your pony shirt or whatever. I've had little girls come up to me and my friends in the library with their moms, and they'll be so excited. They say things like "See? Even grownups like My Little Pony." You really don't need to let a bunch of arrogant token feminists who think you're trying to ogle their kids just because you like a freaking tv show stop you from having fun, and likewise, you don't need to act like little girls being around you ruins your fun, as if your conduct is improper for little girls or their existence bothers you. I really just don't understand why it's such a big deal to people.

I disagree. Every character of the mane six had a ton of personality and interesting scenes. During the reformation montage, you see all the characters working together each time, until they all work together to save Dash.

Contrast the mindless cutouts of the non-Twilight characters in MMC. We don't get an amusing counter-characterization, we just get a blob.

This movie did cause me to think a bit about that. Twilight Sparkle is sort of a special pony that actually justifies much of her big world-shaking presence.

What's Twilight Sparkle's talent? Magic. What's magic? Friendship. Despite being an introvert herself, she makes friendship happen. Then magic happens. Then shit gets done.

Spoiler alert: It happens in Equestria Girls. Apparently Sunset Shimmer had sabotaged the friendship between the mane five that were there before Twilight Sparkle showed up, Twilight Sparkle shows up, gets them to actually talk to eachother, and they realized they got set up. Friendship happens - they all make up. Magic happens. Shit gets done.

But hasn't this been going on since S01E02?
S01E02: Twilight Sparkle makes friendship. This makes the elements of harmony. That takes down Nightmare Moon.
TM: Twilight Sparkle chooses friends over grand galloping galla. Celestia responds by giving tickets to everypony.

Ect, ect. There are episodes in which Twilight Sparkle's unlikely friendship-making power is not the lynchpin that resolves the conflict, but this sort of the single-most commonly repeated conflict resolver, and it's nothing new. Although they did mix it up a bit - sometimes Twilight Sparkle tries to go it alone and only when she opens up is she able to do her friendship power thing that overcomes the conflict: It's About Time, Lesson Zero, Crystal Empire.

>>2523417
Afraid so. Oh, and you're going to love this bit: the sabotage all happened over electronic text messages and this was sufficient to cause them to get so steamed at each other that they could not resolve their differences in person until Twilight Sparkle happened along.

For 411 flank flusteration bonus points: Principle Celestia was apparently completely oblivious to this going on.

Why the fuck does everybody say that? The pilot WASN'T like that.
In the Pilot, each and every member of the mane six was in the spotlight, their contributions made sense, and they ultimately helped to solve the issue using their special talents.
Compare with TCE, where Twilight's friends get a role that we're TOLD it's important, but never shown as such, and only Twilight is on display.

And even then, in the pilot, it made sense why Twilight had more focus, she was the audience surrogate, she was the way to introduce the rest of the cast and setting.

>>2523422
Sorry, but no. I can buy Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Rainbow Dash starting to dislike each other because of AJ's, Rarity, and Dashie's abrasive personalities and Fluttershy innability to stand for herself... But Pinkie Pie throws a wrench in that theory. She would NEVER abandom her friends like that.

but even at the part one, everyone got her time... even they failed and got raped by discord... but they got some focus when they was discorded. while in mmc, all the suddent everyone is flip over, they show you small scenes, and they dissapear until twilight appear....

they are kind of the same level, except in RoH you saw the cast fall one by one and doing stuff around twilight before she falls too,and at MMC they just show you they are fucked up and then back to twilight

I can see how that would bother a person, but at the same time, I can see that you don't have to look at it that way.

It's more like Twilight Sparkle's special talent is magic, right? And because her special talent is magic, her special talent is friendship. And, often, what's needed to overcome a given conflict is their friendship. Because that's the central theme of the show.

So what you could do is meet them halfway here. Alright, Twilight Sparkle ends up being the friendship maker that brings the rest of the mane six together, however, this is not to say that the rest of the mane six are without their sense of agency - they each have things that make them special. Rather, that coming together allows that friendship alchemy (lets call it) to give them the boost they need to defeat the conflict, and Twilight Sparkle can't help it that it's her talent to be the one that makes that happen.

Twilight Sparkle ends up being the center of the circle of friends, the one wearing the tiara, but she's not more important, just the grain of sand that tips the scale by virtue of being ze magicks talented pony.

Technically, the mane six were already friends in the pilot before Twilight Sparkle happened along. She just managed to push it a little further, so they can get the Elements of Harmony McGuffin and overcome the big bad.

Actually, in the movie it's not that they weren't all friends, just each of the rest of the mane six had a disagreement with another member of the mane six. They got along okay with the rest, but they weren't real close. It's a bit of a plot hole that the ones they were getting along with okay weren't able to resolve the misunderstanding before Twilight Sparkle came along. I guess the idea is that Twilight Sparkle was smart enough to see Sunset Shimmer sabtoaged their friendship when the rest of their were. Also, she knew the value of their friendship and to push them to become really good friends because she knew they could do that from her pony equivalents and seeing them in a yearbook, so bam: special talent time.

To be fair they're not the mane six, not really, they may be friends but going to high school together doesn't have quite the bonding value of frequently saving each other from rampaging, giant monsters, gods of chaos, ancient evil unicorns of immense power, and shapeshifting bug ladies, I don't have a hard time believing these secondary six wouldn't have bonds as strong as their pony counterparts.

Frankly this seems pretty realistic to me, if one of my best friends did something like Twilight does in this movie I'd be keeping a vigil until her return as well.

Are you saying that if there is this really friendly person who really wants to be your friend, and you are both tormented by this one flankhole, and nobody else will help you... you won't try to associate with that person? Just because of one inflamatory email? That was completely out of character for that person?

Honestly, it's probably just to make her more recognizable to fans of the show, no real reason.

Although, hey, who's to say Principle Celestia isn't a 1,000+ year old nigh immortal in Doug-esque human world? It's not like this alternate universe needs to have an Earth-equivalent ruleset. Their funky-flank skin pigmentation is proof enough of that.

No, the emails and texts weren't "inflammatory", they sabotaged important events with each other, making them look like flankholes. The events in question were Rainbow Dash having said she would show up to Applejack's bake sale with the Wondercolts softball team, but the fake message saying it was postponed, and Pinkie Pie showing up to Fluttershy's pet....auction?....thing....with noisemakers and fireworks, which wasn't what she had requested, but the fake message saying to do such a thing.

>Canterlot High, not Equestria High.
Meh, maybe. I already forgot. I think I might have heard a groan or two from the theater audience when it was mentioned - they basically are shoehorning in the High School as being the equivalent of the kingdom and this is why Sunset Shimmer took it over before trying to take over Equestria in her home dimension.

>>2523491
>>2523494
Human Pinkie Pie mentions that the Twilight Sparkle she was meeting was just an identical Twilight Sparkle and there was an identical Spike dog as well. But, simultaneously, it seems to me as though somehow Sunset Shimmer was supposed to be Twilight Sparkle's equivilent in the human world, despite coming from Equestria, and this is why she's left in the rest of the mane six's hands: to become their new BFF so she can learn that's it's never too late for the magic of friendship, and also so the remaining human mane six have a Twilight Sparkle replacement to lavish their attentions on.

im saying that.
because well.
when the movie summary was released, even i think before the trailer i though "there is probably a cool car the characters could ride or something"

and then they mention how brad have the car i knew they was going to put.

specially because what will be the reason for brad to have this car? it add anything to the story? no, there is a car because there have to be a car.

if at the end they dont release the brad car, they probably regret it and just dont want to take the risk.

just like twilight carriage appeared for 6 seconds to have an excuse.

the starting toys didnt needed an excuse because the toy department and the show department was kind of separated from each other.

I have also read many who have said they will never see it and will continue to hate it forever anyway on principle. The infighting and flame wars haven't ended; they're only going to intensify as the hiatus continues.

What I had hoped for was that the movie would come out, everyone would just shrug it off, and things would calm down. Instead, all I can see is things getting much, much worse before they get better.

It just came out today (more or less) and people are still digesting it, and plenty more haven't even really seen it proper. Give it a week and this whole thing will settle down significantly (although I don't think people are all that riled up tbh). Besides, it's removed from the main series so it's not like it's going to really affect things moving forward. Plus, the regular pony parts in the beginning, if that's a hint at what's to come for the opener in S4, is something I'll be very happy with.

Right. That makes me happy. I like seeing a character struggle when new things are dumped on them, and that plus the cute problem with her wings just made me feel good. Again, if that's a taste of what's in store for the S4 opener (assuming it expands on it obviously more than EQG does as to be expected) then I'll be very happy.

I guess insofar as having a small number of holdouts who made their hangups their own thing qualifies as, "Infighting." But, generally speaking, I find everything around here mellow. Too mellow, in fact: it's so mellow that some of us attempt to raise drama over the most minor things out of boredom.

So, yeah, I don't know what you're reading. Things are as fine here as any neck of the woods wherein you put two people in the same room and allow them to voice an opinion.

>>2523590
Some of your grammar is tough to follow, but I'm guessing what you are saying here is you are concerned at how much Equestria Girls will affect people's perception of the show's canon.

Strictly speaking, Equestria Girls is a "non-canonical spinoff" that is nonetheless canon because it uses the same assets and even has a show tie-in at the beginning and the end. It's canon because it presents itself as such. To disavow that would be to suggest the developers deliberately confuse their viewers: it would just be bad showmanship, which I don't think DHX Studio are so novice to do.

So if it's being presented as canon, why is the movie a "non-canonical spinoff?" Because the writers don't intend to do anything with what happened at any point during the movie in the show. The movie will never be referenced. Bolt Sentry will probably never be seen again (confirmed for season 4, but past that...?). Sunset Shimmer, too? It's a fair assumption. At the very least, she's staying in the human world for 30 moons, which amounts to roughly 825 days. All of the other characters met on Doug-Earth are probably never going to be seen again because there's simply no need for any of them in a story that takes place in Equestria because they're redundant when put next to their pony counterparts.

So that's how it's non-canonical: it's not that it's not technically part of the TV show's canon, it will just be completely irrelevant to the TV canon of the show. Don't like any part of the movie? You can completely disavow its existence, it won't change anything. If anything happened of any consequence during the movie, it's maybe that, on some level, Twilight Sparkle will be slightly more comfortable with the idea of being a princess at the start of S4, but I don't think we're done with that arc, so some good that does us.

I believe that there will be no short clips or episodes taking place in the human world. Nor will there be a second Equestria Girls movie. Consequently, the Equestria Girls human world can be advanced in fanon without any danger of canon conflicts. Also, if anyone wants to see what happened next in the Equestria Girls human world, the fans will have to write it, because the developers will be treating it like it is irrelevant!

But maybe I assume too much. Who knows what the future holds? I am just basing this off of some developer comments about how Equestria Girls can be regarded as separate from show canon and how these characters will not show up in season 4. Seems like a reasonable guess, but they could always change their mind!

just like his mind was changed about no humans, and now we have them.

but hasbro doesnt think is irrelevant, if the line is a success, they will want a sequeal or continuation about it... and the setting is already done, you have the entire cast, your magic expert reformed, and the no need to link it to the show anymore

beside, i dont read fics and stuff so probably im not going to get it, but why some one will want to write about human ponies instead of the ponies, to "avoid" the contradictions of canon of the show?

I still prefer the ponies. They're just cuter and more interesting than boring old humans.

>beside, i dont read fics and stuff so probably im not going to get it, but why some one will want to write about human ponies instead of the ponies, to "avoid" the contradictions of canon of the show?
There were human fanfics and fan pictures long before Equestria Girls came out (or was even announced!). I think some creators just are more comfortable about working with humans. For writers, you don't have to invest the extra effort in imagining how things would be different in a pony-run world when creating! Although I think for artists it may have been more of a challenge because you were trying to figure out how they would look like if they were humans.

But that is not what is important. Nor is it that important if it conflicts with canon - fanon conflicts with canon all the time, anyway! (Although, for many reasons, it is a nice bonus when fanon fits in with canon.)

What is important is this: if you want to see how things continue in the human world introduced by Equestria Girls, Hasbro probably will not be making it. Only fans can be making it. Consequently, Hasbro has given the fans a gift of a sort: this human world that they introduced but will probably not be doing anything with. That is what I meant in >>2523593

Of course, if it turns out Equestria Girls is a whole spinoff TV series, as we once thought it would be, then nevermind...

i didnt said they lied.

i just said how they though how having human in equestria is totally wrong. but having an alternative world just crossing a mirror where everyone is a reflection of all the ponies like teenagers while it isnt even like a real world but a giant highschool is totally ok.

im not saying they are lying, im saying things can change against the initial vision.
just look at faust stuff, a ton of her ideas are probably raped by now. because she is out of the game. but if she was on the team, she probably will have to work at the equestria girls movie.

>>2523597
i dont see why hasbro is not going to keep it up, specially if it do really well.
and then why a fan will be whiling to continue the adventures of the mane characters knock off?

fanfics can be of anything, there is one about the mane cast being spiders i think.

so there is no need to think this world was created "to let the fans make his stories".

it is different if you want to say "this new world have a giant potential for fan fic writers" but not like it was destined for that

Insists is too strong a word. Although it's a fairly straightforward observation that if something looks like a duck and quacks like a duck it's probably a ~~pony~~ duck. This movie is putting out all the appropriate stimuli to be canon.

That said, I'm calling it Zen canon, because it's not only canon, it's also not canon. This is because everything that happened in the movie is never going to come up ever again on the show. So you can pretty much ignore it, in show canon, even if the movie technically can be included in show canon without any conflict whatsoever.

Put another way, the entirety of Equestria Girls was a big lipped alligator moment [tvtropes.org] .

>>2523608
Meh, I rattled on about my reasoning on that tangent long enough. At the end of the day, do I really have reason to care if you will accept that creating an Equestria Girls human world and letting it rot on the vine is a gift (inadvertantly to otherwise) to fanon writers?

Sunset Shimmer was at greater than Blueblood/Gilda tier depth. She was the villain of the moment, she had her hangups and bad attitude - pretty much identical to Blueblood and Gilda at this point - but she had slightly more of a history (former student of Celestia's gone rogue to this human world) and her conflict actually got resolved she sees the light in the end, rather Nightmare Moon style, whereas Gilda and Blueblood were pretty much discarded as token antagonists.

~~Brad~~ Bolt Sentry, on the other hand, had virtually no character development. At least Blueblood and Gilda had in-your-face personalities. Bolt Sentry was so laid back that the fact he had a car decked out in his motif, or played guitar, was more important than him. A thoroughly forgettable character whose main lease on life was that he didn't treat Twilight Sparkle like shit and she in turn developed a completely unnecessary little crush on him.

Flash seemed like a cool guy. People making him out to be some walking big big macintosh who only wants to get into Twilight's skirt, but he seemed to be a pretty good guy. He overheard Sunset talk about framing Twilight for trashing the decorations for the Fall Formal, and dug up the evidence that it was actually Snips and Snails. When Twilight accidentally rejected his request to go to the formal together, he was cool about it, and after she said yes, later in the movie, he immediately followed that by slamming face first into a door.

the word filter to big macintosh totally kills the point I was trying to make.

as for Sunset. She seems to be more magically adept than Twilight. She knew about the portal, and she knew what would happen to the EoH in an alternate dimension, something Twilight clearly didn't know. She knew this despite the fact that the EoH were largely forgotten before the FiM pilot.

For anyone who's read Dragonlance, Twilight is a not evil version of Raistlin, and Sunset is Fistandantilus.

I flatout told her that I was really happy with what she was doing with the show as a Spike and Twilight fan.

Spike got amazing characterization in Equestria Girls, and I like how he is becoming more and more competent to the point that he is a far better friend than Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, or Rarity

Others said I should have lashed out at the DHX animators for taking pride in such an awful idea (since they really enjoyed working on it)

I got shit for telling Meghan McCarthy not to listen to haters.

They are judging the whole movie around the fact that the relationship between Flash Sentry and Twilight is ambiguous and that this might occur in the comics or Season 5.

The moment I saw Flash Sentry as a wuss who barely gets his feelings recquited by Twilight made me feel sorry for him. I really don't have any problems with the guy since I don't dream of marrying Twilight.

Your posts on /mlp/ the last 2 days have been nothing but inconcise, drawing for attention, and in many ways inaccurate to what other, more articulate sources have said about the movie and what events occur there. People hardly commented on your mentioning what you said to Meghan or whatever, people only cared about what you had to say about the movie, which was always kind of vague.

And noone will like someone for outright saying he's defending for the sake of defending. It goes against critical thinking.

They are currently trying to dislike bomb everything related to Equestria Girls and are throwing a shitfit because it has a better Rotten Tomatoes rating than Man of Steel.

It is not like /mlp/ hasn't done the exact opposite and laughed at people who got pissed off by it.

I would have thought the fact that DHX seemed well aware of their doomsaying would make them happier.

It is a neverending cycle. DHX takes some downtime to read what they have to say, "FUCK YOU! DO YOUR JOB! YOU'RE WASTING YOUR TIME UNDERSTANDING OUR COMPLAINTS"

DHX ignores them, "WHY IS DHX TRYING TO KILL THIS SERIES? THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT US"

DHX tries to throw in things they have been asking for, "I FUCKING HATE THIS PANDERING BULLSHIT! IF YOU CANT GIVE US EVERYTHING WE ASK FOR DON'T GIVE US ANYTHING AT ALL"

If /mlp/ was the Smash Bros. fandom, they'd throw fits because they asked for Mega Man and they'd prefer a character they didn't expect

Alright, I graduated high school a year ago, so methinks I'm still accurate in regards to this. Nobody listened to anything like EQG, everyone DID listen to Rap music and Dubstep.

If they wanted to "fit the setting", they they should have done a soundtrack composed by Lil Wayne, Drake or Skrillex or somthin'

Kinda this. I just graduated and its mostly dubstep, hiphop Dnb, old "rock", and the like.

Tbh, I still think i'd rather it be this then that...nor because I prefer this musically, but its a hybrid of the show and modern...I don't think skrillex, lil wayne, or even drake really fit

But what about all she's done up until that point? She's worked hard her entire life to study magic, in a world where friendship is magic, and those friendships lead her to understand the true meaning of Starswirl's spell, and created new magic, for the first time ever in Equestria. That's Nobel Prize quality stuff there.

I'm quite proud of Twilight, and it makes me happy that something good came of all she's seen and done, and even prouder that she gave all credit for this entirely to her friends.

what a coincidence, because all I'm interested in is talking about MLP, not sit here reading post after post from Fluttershutter of him telling me to fuck off, or 441 calling me a douche.

So when they want to knock that shit off, I guess the drama can end.

Meta-drama is contagious.

Personally, I think Fluttershutter is waaaay too hung up on disliking Twilicorn. But the more I learn about Fluttershutter, the more I learn that getting hung up on little things is sort of just the kind of guy he is. It doesn't matter what he's hung up on then, does it? You think you can debate the matter at hand, but you may not have realized it does not matter in this context.

No one being perfect, there's really nothing wrong with being who you are, propensity to hangups and all. However, it'd be less disruptive and upsetting to all parties involved if we stop bringing it up or embarking on that tangent when the opportunity presents itself. It might have been worth discussing once, but that was about it.

usually when things are discussed once, it's because there's been some sort of resolution. There's been no resolution here, or progress of any kind. It's just disruptive, and doesn't benefit anyone or anything at all. How can I talk about MLP, whatever the topic is, if every other post is some grossly vitriolic BS from one of these guys? It's an absurdity at this point.

What I'm proposing is, if you know a certain tangent will be without hope of resolution, don't embark down it as though there could be one. Let sleeping dogs lie.

The reason why I don't believe a resolution could be found here is that it is not unreasonable to assume that individuals exist for whom a resolution of a given matter is simply so very incompatible with their world view that it is beyond the means of mere words to bring about.

Have you not encountered sufficient evidence to believe that this is one such instance?

Personally, I don't use PonychanX. I think the mental practice of enduring something I don't want to read is probably good for me in the long run.

But then, I'm probably the single most ignored person on /arch/, so maybe I'm just exhibiting favoritism for PonychanX-less solutions.

>>2523777
Honestly, the best solution would probably to be to have the mods come by and prune the off-topic meta drama once in awhile, especially on threads destined for /arch/. I'm not saying ban anyone. Having their little hissies hit the bit bucket might be sufficient encouragement not to have them as often.

We however still have no clue why they wanted to make Twilight a blushing mess at the end and teased over the new guy who's back in Equestria as a pony, if Flash is never leaving this movie? Just what the fuck. It doesn't make sense. Why not have a goodbye scene and then leave him in the human world?

And why did he seem to know what went on in the human world? What the hay is that supposed to mean? And "we need to stop bumping in to eachother like this"? If Meghan hadn't stated otherwise, I would say they're obviously hinting at Twi and Flash becoming a thing, or at least meeting again, in season 4. They deliberately wanted to bring him back for that exchange at the end, for what reason?

Usually we would expect answers to these cliffhangers in the next few episodes. If Meghan says it's not in S4 at all, how are we supposed to know what the deal is?

I don't get it.

I largely suspect Flash was only in this movie because Hasbro wanted some sort of love interest. And he's probably not showing up again in the show because they don't want the movie to be necessary material.

>And why did he seem to know what went on in the human world? What the hay is that supposed to mean? And "we need to stop bumping in to eachother like this"?
He didn't know. He just reacted the same way in both worlds when it involved Twilight bumping into him.

That's not entirely true. If we are to believe Megan Flash Sentry will not appear in S4. Anything after that is fair game (ie. S5) or even MLP FIM movies.

I think Flash showing up a whole season later is like expecting Skyla to show up in season 4 when she wasn't in season 3.

Though future movies are possible, especially if they focused more on the human world.

All the bronies in earshot of me in the theater seemed to be expressing they were really glad they come by the end of the movie. That's about as subjective as subjective opinions get, but I still think it speaks favorably of it.

Just go into the movie expecting a typical episode of MLP:FIM. Now, extrapolate that this episode is of epic, of 3x length. Alright, so what's not to like?

Still sounds meh. Still don't like humans. Still don't like high school. Still don't like implied horse on human attraction. James Cameron's Avatar creepy right there. I don't like the dolls, and I don't like the fact that EqG might be an ongoing thing; taking away resources from the main series (writers/editors/VAs/making season breaks longer etc). Here's hoping S4 can end the ride for me, but there's also a little shred of hope clinging that it won't be so bad and I can continue loving cute pastel pones.

In my opinion, they went to the theater to see moar pony because they're really into the brony scene, they went largely because the other bronies and friends of theirs agreed it might be a fun thing to do.

In that situation, they could have went wholly ready to heckle it for their own amusement if it turned out to be bad. Indeed, I heard the occasional groan and "wat" from what was happening on the silver screen (although not nearly as much as hooting and cheering at pony cameos). In the end, they actually liked the movie, and that says something. It might not have blown anyone's minds, but it was a decent, fun movie.

Bear in mind that this was the very first showing in the area, so this wasn't them coming with an opinion already formed of the end product, if anything it might have been jaded from what they heard about it online from hearsay.

Sure, it never happens... you know, except for all these times it happened [lmgtfy.com] .

I suspect they identify the person holding the camcorder, who may not have even known they were identified. The cops could be called while you're still watching the movie. Cop meets you at the door out of the theater. "That's him, Officer." You're searched and found to be in possession of a camcorder or some other device, play it back, there's the movie. Prosecution is open and shut: welcome to the clink.

If somebody's going to risk their flank to get you an advance copy of the movie, the least you can do is not lie to them by masking that it's a real risk they're taking.

I actually agree with more of Fluttershutter's stance (although I do consider Twilight to be slightly first main character, but it has gone too far lately). I'd be interested to know what he thinks about love-interest sub-plot and if romance leaks into the show.

There, you can all hate this anon now.

Here's why there's no leak...

1) The movie primarily is only showing on the weekends, so if a leak isn't up on a Sunday night, then don't expect the next window of opportunity to open until the following weekend.

2) No one wants to get caught, and explain to the cops that they were recording a My Little Pony movie.

That I'm aware of, the only MLP:FIM staff member that lied was Tara Strong. There was this time she was on the Hasbro twitter and said "no silly" in response as to whether or not to believe the rumors that Twilight Sparkle was going to become an alicorn. No, she definitely did.

If she has any way of wiggling out of that, maybe the developers themselves did not tell her what scene she was reading for, or she did not know what an alicorn was. Or maybe, like I was saying at the time, that there's a difference between "believing in rumors" and something actually going to happen.

it should not be lying.
it is more than some times she can be twisting her words and that lead to miss interpretation.

because she cant talk about it. because she want to be a surprise, because is changed in the last second.

she is not lying, but not for that you are going to trust what she say.

If she can't talk about it, she can't talk about it, at all. If she changed it at the last moment, then he IS going to be at Season 4. Stop pretending that Meghan is this demonic mastermind who likes to play with the hearts and minds of bronies before crushing them, she is primarely a human fucking being, and is bound to take the direct route.

im not saying it because i think she is a demonic creature, or want to piss people off....

im just saying, what she said you cant take it to the totally clear way. she can make mistakes.

(i think) she said the babs episode was going to take a really different turn, people didnt thought that, she said one phrase was going to blow up the internet, and it wasnt anything special. she said rarity had an episode, she forgot there wasnt any more.

all this was just based in her opinion, but still, if you want me to say it in a more positive way, you can take her words and say it is really likely it to happen, but you dont know if it is going to be like that, specially because she doesnt take the important desitions at the end, if hasbro got crazy and say dhx to put flash sentry in some scenes, and megan know nothing.... she can do nothing.

>“It’s wrapped in a story that’s really fun and funny, and has music, and doesn’t feel heavy-handed.”
Anyway, the first two are more subjective, and like you said, she forgot something, the only example that was objective. And at this point, it's probably way too recent for her to have forgotten any changes done in season 4, and it's too far into production for Hasbro to make them include him at this point.

Me, Lauren Faust, and apparently the entire MLP:FIM staff who condoned drawing them as teens in Equestria Girls.

Yes, I've heard about this idea it's being done to have them compete with Mosnter High.

Yes, I've see there are strange exceptions in Equestria Girls, such as why Celestia and Luna are clearly adults and not 1,000+ years old, why the CMC are apparently running around a high school despite being too young to be Freshmen, and how some of the cameos are being worked in as teens when we thought they might be older.

But it still works, dammit. The mane six age debate is settled in my book.

You are all now imagining pony Twilight Sparkle masturbating furiously every night until she falls asleep about human Flash pounding the hell out of her winking horse womanhood with his uncircumcised hairless ape-schlong. You're welcome.

Also, can I get some pony Twi on human Flash art up in here. Or the resulting hybrid humny/ponman, satyr, centaur offspring?
We had it all wrong. Lyra isn't the human fetishist. It's totally Twilight.

I should point out that, in medieval society, that's sort of how it was: you would likely have all the responsibilities of an adult while you were still a teen. The Kingdom of Equesrtia might have some modern conveniences, but it's still just medieval enough in many ways.

But the way Faust puts it, she mixed it up because she wanted to keep it ambiguous to increase appeal, and also because they're human brains in horse bodies you can fudge things a bit.

I'm thinking Equestria Girls defined it much more rigidly than it was originally was. Like EquestriaGuy is saying here: >>2523845

>>2523849
Was I wrong to already be imagining this before you mentioned it? But technically, Sunset Shimmer beat Twilight Sparkle to the punch by apparently dating hooman Flash Sentry, who had broke up with her before Twilight Sparkle arrived. I dunno, I guess the mirror polymorphic affect also hit their sex drives.

>>2523850
Partly because the mane six ages have nothing to do with the exceptions - the original trace if Twilight Sparkle and Sunset Shimmer, the only two (except for Spike) who were originally from Equestria. She turned out to be a teen, alright? Then we put Twilight Sparkle next to her duplicate friends, also teens, why not? The further out you go from there, the less the exceptions matter.

Come to think of it, the viewers of the movie probably would be pretty confused if they never watched the show.

Opening scenes, Twilight Sparkle arrives in Canterlot, is talking about being a princess with wings now, meets Celestia, Luna, Cadence, trailing her five friends... if you never watched the show, you would be like, "WHO ARE THESE PONIES? WHERE IS THIS PLACE? WHY SHOULD I CARE THEY ARE HERE? WHAT'S THIS ABOUT THE PURPLE ONE BEING A PRINCESS NOW? WHY IS SHE WORRIED ABOUT MOVING THERE? HOW IS THAT CROWN ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT LINES OF DEFENSE?!" The movie really doesn't explain any of that to any great depth.

I guess a viewer could muddle on anyway, but they'd be missing out a lot about the movie. All the cameos and stuff would go completely over their head.

I suppose the resolution being an impromptu simulation of the rest of the Elements of Harmony through Twilight Sparkle's crown, channeled backwards into herself and her circle of human friends, resulting in that Element of Harmony rainbow attack identical to that used on Nightmare Moon would be kind of weird, too. But even a viewer of the show might not realize that's what's going on.

The mane 6 are the spirits of the EoH, in EQG the power to create the Rainbow Death Ray emanated from the crown, transformed the HUmane 6, and they unleashed the attack. The difference is the transformation and the lack of necklaces, but the underlining compatibility is still there, they still embody their element.

I suppose it sort of becomes completely irrelevant anyway. Soon Twilight Sparkle and Spike are in a completely new world, so the old one and all the locations/characters in it don't particularly matter anymore, all that matters is that Twilight Sparkle has a quest to get back her crown from Sunset Shimmer.

But, if you're not already a brony, you're going to miss out on 1001 little touches that make the movie better with their inclusion, including why we should be excited about Twilight Sparkle's friends, so I guess I could see why a review from a non-brony would miss the point.

The other 5's powers worked without their necklaces, why would we assume the crown is any more necessary? Maybe they don't actually need them. The EoH didn't exist as jewelry until the mane 6 found them. It could be that the necklaces are just for show, and the power is from within. It wouldn't surprise me if they touch on that at some point in the future.

Also, Twilight might as well go watch jeopardy if she doesn't have her friends. She's useless without them.

Right, the crown is the power of the EoH, in crown form, however it doesn't need to be in crown form at all. It was a giant stone boulder until a few years ago. I wouldn't at all say that the jewelry is entirely responsible for empowering them, and it could be just an amplifier. The qualities of the mane 6 have to be at least partially responsible for unleashing that power, or else the Rainbow Death Ray shouldn't have worked.

Twilight's whole speech was about how Sunset can wear the crown, but she can't wield it. Watch the ending again.

There's a scene early in the movie where Sunset asks Twilight what happens when the EoH is brought to another dimension. It isn't explained, but it seems like the answer is it draws out the strongest aspect of someone's personality. Thus Sunset turned into a demon, and Twilight, being the magic EoH bearer, zaps people with friendship.

>>2523928
The point is that 6/6ths of the bearers are required, not 6/6ths of the jewelry.

Look what Sunset did with it, and was planning to do.

This is how I think of the EoH, as it applies to the idea that friendship is magic.

You have to ask yourself, can friendship work without kindness/laughter/generosity/loyalty/honesty? The answer is no, and when you combine those things you get magic, the magic of friendship, which is what Twilight's element represents.

the other 5 elements combined create magic, which makes it the most powerful element, but I don't think Sunset knew that. She might have thought that magic alone was powerful, which she realized was false after she was defeated.

The other elements could be used in various ways in alternate dimensions, like the crown was, but that's just speculation.

I would like to back off of an idea I had earlier, though, because I realized how flatly wrong I was.

The crown, which is the current physical representation of a defensive tool Equestria has, which draws its power from magic, which itself is the combination of the 5 other elements, and is absolutely necessary to empower the mane 6. Because of the fact that it is a combination of the other elements, it can then be surmised that it can act in place of the necklaces, if the necklaces aren't present.

Remember that part where Sunset Shimmer asked Twilight Sparkle what happens when an Element of Harmony is taken into another world, implying it would be something big?

That was basically a plot device that said they can use Twilight Sparkle's element any way they wanted. In this case, it apparently turned Sunset Shimmer into some kind of demon, but Twilight Sparkle said she could not really wield it and funneled the magic out of the crown (there was a ray going between her and Sunset Shimmer) and somehow channeled that into herself and her human friends in a way to replicate an effect similar to the Elements of Harmony when they blasted Nightmare Moon in order to blast Sunset Shimmer.

Plus pony polymorphism happened, turning the mane six human form into some kind of pony-related magical girl hybrid temporarily.

My theory is that the elements of harmony are really more in the nature of focuses for the power of friendship, meaning the true power comes from friendships. The crown Sunset Shimmer brought over to the human world basically was capable of accessing the entirety of all of the elements of harmony, cross dimension, via being the central focal point. It should be pointed out that they managed to manifest that glowing friendship shield that deflected Sunset Shimmer's attack before Twilight Sparkle started funneling the crown, so it's probably being implied the magic of friendship worked without the focuses, just not to a point where it would cause friendship beams to blow away discordant forces.

I just realized, the ending is sort of similar to the ending of Rescue at Midnight Castle.

In Rescue at Midnight Castle, Tirek uses the power of the Rainbow of Darkness, and pits it against the heroes' Rainbow of Light, which at the time was a puny thing with little power. However, while at first the Rainbow of Darkness seems to overpower the Rainbow of Light, it actually ends up absorbing the Rainbow of Darkness' power, and uses that power to take out Tirek.

Sunset used a more corrupted form of the Elements' power, and blasted it at Twilight and the humane five, who had no magical power at the time. While at first it seems she won, it's then revealed that they managed to absorb that power, transformed, and used that power against Sunset.

In the movie the element of magic was the only one used in artifact form, but you're saying that magic is the combination of the others, so shouldn't the others be able to be used together without magic, since they make up magic?

I'm going to say definitely not because when Sunset Shimmer was sitting in her post-demon smoking crater, Twilight Sparkle explained to her friendship is magic, and Sunset Shimmer is like, "I'm sorry! I didn't know there was another way!" You can't spell out much more clearly than that.

Is it basic? Using the reference guide, Twilight only knew about the five elements and a sixth unknown one cause by a spark, which Twilight only realized later was friendship. It's possible she didn't know about friendship being the spark. And since Sunset was also Celestia's student, she might've done just enough digging to know about it just being magic, without knowing it's other qualities.

>>2523959
My guess is that Sunset was able to tap into its magical powers, due to it being another world and it getting affected too, but it's not magic that stems from friendship, leading to a corrupted form of magic like Sombra's.

maybe if they make equestria girls for tv they will make thems in little shorts?
maybe of 5 to 10 mintues?

how much you can drag teenage problems?

in lps some times i think they drag and they have 2 diferent stories at the same time, with the girl and other with the animals.

Yeah, this movie's fucked up enough at this point that they can just do whatever with zero justification. Move in all the characters. Shining Armor and Cadence get bored with the Empire and move to the AU world and they're the new basketball coaches, it doesn't matter why they would do that, it's what McCarthy wants.

When/if they make a sequel, the probable premise is made abundantly clear by what was left open in this one.

The HUmane 5 will meet their version of Twilight, and in a scenario reminiscent of the FiM pilot, they'll teach her the magic of friendship, all while being aided by their new ally, Sunset Shimmer.

Even if it was redundant, that doesn't mean it would be bad. I'd be very interested in an episode where the HUmane 5 have learned the magic of friendship, and now have to teach it to Twilight, knowing full well that her copy is the one who taught it to them, and considering all that's happened previous to then.

I can't help but think that would be a waste of time, which could be better served just jumping into further establishing the foundation of Sunset Shimmer's story of redemption.

But that was half the plot of the first one, in reverse, stretched out to a whole movie.

Despite all the talk of "oh this AU is so great look at all the things they can do!" most of the suggestions I've heard could be done in the main universe without any problems. I just don't see the AU being utilized for anything.

Now, to give examples of using an AU right, look at Fiona and Cake. Normally in Adventure Time, it was Finn who had a crush on Princess Bubblegum, and he would sometimes try to impress her. Now, come Fiona and Cake, the gender roles are reversed; although Fiona is still a strong adventurer and Prince Gumball is still geeky, Gumball is the one courting Fiona, creating an entirely new dynamic. In the first Fiona and Cake episode, it turns out to be the Ice Queen disguising as Gumball, but it still counts because it shows that such a different dynamic is realistic in that AU. I haven't seen or heard of any situations in Equestria Girls that would create a completely different dynamic like that.

Having Twilight go without her friends would already be pushing it, but having her be outright *evil* would just be completely OOC.

Those were just about the most mediocre 30 minutes of Pony I've seen in a while.

And they really creamed on with the forced fanservice, like every 4th scene feels like an unneccesary fanservice scene that doesn't seem to add to the story otherwise.

It completely destroyed the intro. And I wasn't even that fond of the intro in the first place. An acoustic, or orchestral piece had been much more fitting than this atrocity.

It feels like they kinda went with some Oz the Great and Powerful kind of intro, but just added horrific music instead.

No, it's not dubstep, it has that "techno" feel to it, with autotuned voices and re-re-repeating lyrics. In all seriousness, if someone leaked it from the movie 2 months ago and passed it off as a fanmade song, nobody would notice.

I think the song's too different in style, unlike the season 2 intro compared to the season 1 intro. It'd be too jarring watching episodes that would have such drastically different types of music.

Plus the remix loses the point of the theme, which is explaining Twilight's story of coming to Ponyville to learn about friendship along with getting a brief introduction to the rest of the main six.

Eh, it's alright. Ingram would be better off without a shoutout to pre-G4 IMHO. Who gives a flying feather about pre-G4? So hearing a pre-G4 theme is like, "Ugh, don't remind me." But aside from that, I'm not complaining. Simple, cute jingle.

Judging by a tune ripped from some early G4 toy, this theme song has been around since around the days of the pilot, you just didn't get to hear it in its entirety until now. Consequently, Ingram may well have had a change of heart since that far off time of nearly three years ago.

Darn I hope someone recorded the reactions to the technical difficulties they had here. In the end, they got it up with phased audio, but it wasn't too bothersome.

Now for my two cents. I really enjoyed the movie. It wasn't, say, Pixar tier as a Children's movie, but calling it mediocre is excessive and can only come about with entering the theater with a negative attitude. If this were an episode I would place it with the very good ones, bordering with the best ones. Is it an excuse to sell ugly toys? Of course it is, but I think it was pulled off as satisfactory and well deserved character development for Twilight.

Well, I've gone and done it. I've watched this thing-a-ma-jig.

And I have to say, it was pretty fun. Insofar as it can be said to be an episode of MLP, it was middle of the road. It retains the show's insistent optimism, especially in the face of strident cynicism, which is nice.

I do feel that sometimes it stumbled, thematically. The direction, likely from on high, that dresses and accessories feature prominently somewhat undermined the show-wide argument that there are many ways to be a girl, but then that's nothing really new to the franchise, and I'm sure it'll be a bone of contention for some time.

I'll also say that the film kinda suffered from the same surprise resolution syndrome MMC suffered from, where a character fixes a problem suddenly, and with little to no suggestions that they actually thought about it much. In particular Brad discovering that Twilight had been framed for spoiling the Fall Formal, with no indication other than a hint as to his suspicions. Like, he didn't watch Snips and Snails plotting--he just looked in the trash and found the shooping evidence or Twilight just kinda knowing what happened when Sunset's magic blast hit the element bearers. Basically, there's never been any indication that the Element of Magic cannot be used against its bearer. There's not really reason for Twilight to suspect that the use of the element against her would only make her stronger. It should have been clearer that she was just figuring it out herself when she explained what was happening.

Despite all of that, it's a lot of fun. The characters are as well-represented as ever, and the focus on interaction is maintained. I give the movie a B+.

Also, morning wing confirmed canon.

I think Brad being Sunset's ex is a point that would motivate him to cast a good deal of suspicion on her.

In my opinion, it would be pretty darn stupid if the Elements were capable of doing any harm on their bearers, and thus I don't think it should be surprising that the Element had no effect. Although, realistically, one would expect Sunset Shimmer to actually be unable to wield the element, as she is not its rightful owner. As Celestia implied in RoH, the Elements are supposedly linked to their current bearers. How the links break and form I wouldn't suppose that stealing the damn things gets you the brownie points.

Anonymous 22 Jun 2013 19:54:55 GMT No.2524067

I'm really disapointed with the justification/lack of justification of the alternate universe and portal existing to begin with. For some idea I had the idea from the trailer that the portal actually created alternate dimensions based on the circumstances involved in those entering the portal or something. That seemed comparibly cooler, in some sort of very mollified sense, than the idea that they had a random portal leading to an alternate highschool version of their world hanging around their castle.

Do theyexplain it in any way in the movie? That is probably my biggest biff, not having seen it.

Yeah, I think the movie was fun. I'm willing to hand-wave those issues you came up with because it seems easy for me to believe Snips and Snails would be so bad at scheming they'd leave their evidence where Brad would stumble across it almost immediately and it's magic, whatever.

I think it has to do with it being another world affect the Elements' magic.

And the Elements are able to affect their own, it's just that there are different conditions. Celestia was able to use their power on NMM, but NMM was actually being a destructive force, and according to Lauren being used against another bearer broke their bonds.

In the movie, Sunset tried using the magic of the Element, but fueled in an improper way, and tried to use it on Twilight, who was not only the rightful bearer, but was also being protected by the alternate world versions of the other bearers, while also strongly representing friendship.

It looks like the theater screen itself is cutting off some of the image. Some of the visual gags are lost. The theaters that aired EQG ALL seem to have problems. The one I went to left some video player UI buttons on the screen, like stop, play, pause and the like.

Well, now that I've seen the entire thing...my opinion of it hasn't changed from the previous 30 and 13 minute clips. Plot about highschool social drama and "being the prom queen" with some "Twilight being awkward as a human" as well as a bunch of tween-pop songs that all sound the same and a tacked-on magic fight at the end.

The good:
-Same VA's
-Same personalities (mostly)
-Sunset Satan was kinda cool-looking, I suppose. Reminds me of Scanty and Kneesocks.
-The movie can easily be ignored, canon-wise

The bad:
-All the songs sound the same (tween-pop)
-Animation was kinda stiff (DHX seems to struggle with animating humans)
-General character design of stick-thin bodies with melon heads and gigantic hair looks really odd
-Plot was very cliche and a tad contrived
-Sunset Shimmer's character was incredibly 1-dimensional and the fact that she did a sudden 180 after being nuked was even worse
-The fact that Twilight had to go alone and save the day without her friends, yet again. Only a minor grievance, though.
-Too much forced fanservice, like the Trixie scene which served no purpose whatsoever other than to have her appear and say a couple lines.
-Plot is very similar to the FIM pilot, and even goes so far as to recreate scenes from those two episodes. Come on, McCarthy.

Overall, a very firm "subpar".

The poor quality of the cam rip knocks it down 2 points out of ten, IMHO. It'll be better on iTunes/DVD. Even better if you can go while it's actually in the theater and hang with your fellow bronies, that bumps it up about 2 points.

I do think some flicks legitimately get better because of the crowd factor. Consider Attack Of The Killer Tomatoes, for example. Terrible movie [www.rottentomatoes.com] , but it gained a cult following just because people loved going to make fun of it.

Equestria Girls is much better [www.rottentomatoes.com] than Attack of The Killer Tomatoes; it's basically an epic-length, satisfactory MLP:FIM episode. But, throw in making a brony outing of it where you cheer at all the fan references, that's a really good time.

What I'm saying is that sometimes the camaraderie is the point of the thing, and at that point it becomes indistinguishable from being part of the movie. You don't have the camaraderie, you don't have the whole experience. You don't have the whole experience, you haven't really seen the movie.

At the very least, I think this would be a synchtube thing. You get a better sense of it being something bigger than you do while you're sitting alone in your room scorning a bad camrip. You get a sense that this was a gift to the fandom. Because do you see any Fairy Odd Parents movies showing up in theaters? Not a whole lot of 2D cartoons ending up in theaters these days. So it's a little suspicious Hasbro put it out to be aired in niche theaters. I think they're basically hosting a Brony event here, even if we don't particularly like the ideas of the ponies going human, but I suppose that's sort of a halways compromise to push some Monster High competition while they're at it.

Looks like you're already judging to me, and not just the movie.

But seriously, you are missing a couple important things:
1) Lots of fan shout-out references that happen during the movie. Current crappy camrip actually omits a lot of them off screen, and even the quality itself is factor because because the references come fast and small during the movie.

2) Watching it with other bronies is part of the experience.
Like it or not, this isn't "you need to watch the extreme blu-ray triple director's cut to get the full experience" nerdiness I'm talking about here. This is watching the baseball game on a crappy TV instead of being in the crowd. Will you rate less favorably than you would have if you were actually there? Definitely. But it's still the same ball game, why not rate it the same? Because you're not getting the whole experience.

This is legit, even if you can't see it. Granted, I know it's not fair if you can't see it in theaters for whatever reason.

Then this movie isn't for you. They threw in lots of fan pandering specifically to enhance seeing it for the bronies who love it.

Granted, they had enough presence of mind to make sure the fan pandering did not derail the movie. Much... for example, that part where The Great And Powerful Trixie acts all grandiose for a vending machine was stretching the pacing a bit for purely fanservice-related reasons. Oh, and lets not forget the Cutie Mark Crusaders playing their song or, really, doing anything, seeing how they had nothing to do with the plot.

FTFY.

Watching a bad movie with friends doesn't make the movie any better. Sure, I'll enjoy the company of my friends somewhat, but the movie will still be bad. Like Mr.Anon here said, you're not enjoying the movie more, you're enjoying the presence of your friends. The experience as a whole, yes, is somewhat more enjoyable with the added enjoyment from your friends, but that does not change the movie itself.

I already think EQG is bad. I don't think watching it with a bunch of other bronies will make me like it. Especially not when the whole theater is cracking up at every little instance of silliness or slight funniness, or screaming and shouting at the OVER NINE THOUSAND instances of fan pandering.

I guess if you're specifically against the idea of shoutouts to bronies, on the grounds that you're righteously undignified at the idea of pandering, seeing it on a theater where you can be with your fellow bronies appreciating those shoutouts would just make it worse.

You're probably best off forgetting this movie ever happened considering that's sort of the point of the brony side of this otherwise Monster High competition gambit.

Yeah, about that, I have seen maybe two dozen movies in theaters in my lifetime, and in not one did people act like that, except during the Avengers where two grown men acted like goofballs for the whole fucking thing. Why is this different, where the whole theater acts like goofballs?

It's kind of like how when they showed clips of season 3 at a couple of conventions, where a lot of jokes, even the small ones, ended up causing the room to burst out in laughter.

Aside from during my theater's humiliating technical difficulties, the Brony audience around me was actually quite well behaved. Or maybe I heard nothing because I sat in the very back. That could have curbed my own experience up.

In fact, now that I think of it, I've never had to deal with a bad audience at the theater I go to.

This whole vein has me thinking it's more than just a brony thing. Something about young adults watching cute, likeable pastel ponies, and appreciating that others like them too, just makes pony better. You end up laughing at jokes you normally wouldn't laugh at because you're a little nervous about what you're watching, but at the same time it's okay because everybody else there seems to like it too, so you can go ahead and laugh more than you normally would.

If this is so, perhaps my suggesting that the movie is better when watched in a crowd - no, more than that, that this is a movie for crowds, at least as far as brony appeal is concerned - has some legit heft to it, after all.

I think it's more likely that the ones enjoying the movie are also people who enjoy the crowd atmosphere. Not that they don't like the movie itself, but, considering the noise, it seems likely to stand that they enjoy the crowd experience, while others may not.

The funny thing is, I'm pretty much a massive introvert. I don't socialize much, at all. I find parties draining. Yet, somehow, I find this crowd appeal of Equestria Girls to be a good thing. Maybe it's because all that's happening is they're loosening up and having fun under the mutual bond of liking pony.

After I left the movie, I walked by a gaggle of little girls (probably late grade school) in line to get into the next showing and they were singing Winter Wrap Up to themselves. So make of that what you will.

>>2524134
Speaking as somebody who felt similarly in the past, I say it wouldn't hurt to broaden your horizons and socialize a bit, little by little, just within your comfort zone. It's more important to try than you might realize. It turns out that being completely unwilling to socialize makes it really hard to search for jobs! I still prefer to stay indoors for the most part, but once in awhile I'll go to an event involving something relevant to my interests, and I generally end up glad I went. You don't have to be a party animal, or frequent socializer, but it's reassuring to hang with people of like mind every great once in awhile.

I saw that interview. Noticing the subtitles, the girls that the Black Nerd was interviewing [www.youtube.com] were actually young entertainment professionals. So I'm thinking that their various responsibilities would have made it that much harder learn a lot about the ponies. That, and they might have been invited to the premier event just as a publicity thing.

Hired to watch a movie.

Also, people are not really giving much credit to the new generation. Kids are like sponges. Young brains soak up information like crazy. Its actually been scientifically proven the older a brain gets, the harder it is to learn something.
It's a little thing called human development. How it happens rapidly from 0-18/19. It's how we all learned language so fast when we're little, but it takes years of study to perfect a foreign language if we start learning later in life.

That's actually false, the language thing. Adults when put into the same situation as children learning their first language actually learn a language quicker than children, probably because they aren't learning how the world works at the same time. Consider the conditions kids are under; they have 100% of their time exposure to a foreign language, and if they want to communicate themselves at all they have to learn and use this language even with as little as they know, and everyone around them is accomidating to their lack of understanding and encouraging them to speak even if they speak poorly.

It takes years for a child to get a several thousand word vocabulary, a dedicated adult can do that in months and be reading advanced novels in a year. But consider the general factors adult language learners have: they already know another language well enough that they can just put asside learning their target language and still get by during the day and may spend only a couple hours a week learning it, they face high amounts of discrimination to speak a language poorly, and few are willing to speak through that stage of a poor grip on a new language unless they have to.

Alright, finished watching it. For all the people who have been crying about how pony Flash knew what happened in the other world, he didn't, at all. She had bumped into him at the beginning of the movie before going through the portal, that is the reason why he comments about having to stop bumping into each other. That out of the way, Dee found it enjoyable, the jokes made me chuckle, especially the bit where Spike calls the one kid out about being surprised by the talking dog after what just happened, the secondary five were endearing enough, the songs were catchy, and the climax was fun.

Yeah, I mentioned that in one of these 2743 posts from when I saw it opening weekend. Granted, I don't think anyone was crying about it. On the contrary, I think more people were overly excited about the possibility Twilight Sparkle was getting a canon ship for season 4. Either that, or they were subtly trolling us about it. Either way, NOPE, we've even got some confirmation from McCarthy he does not appear in season 4.

Just watched it, didn't really care for any of the songs except the one from the second trailer, but they didn't detract from the film in any way. I thought it was funny and had an enjoyable story. Spike was brilliant in this film and asides from how much time we spent with Snips and Snails there weren't any grating flaws.

woohoo!
well, i had a grand old time. the only complaint i have is the "twilight destroyed the decorations" - "no she didn't" scene cause it was literally just that. and thinking that if sunset tried to smash the mirror, wouldn't the hammer just have gone through to the other side? also, i caught myself cringing during the "cheerleader song", but that's cause of the nature of the whole scene ("oh god they're starting to randomly sing in a school cafeteria and everyone's staring"). sunset's reformation was pretty forced (cause even though she observed those "acts of friendship", you never see her reflecting on it, so...) full on eoh brainwash i guess? i dunno. pinkie "having a hunch" about the full stories also was a bit forced, but timing constraints i guess, cause it sure as hell moved things forward much easier.
apart from that i definitely laughed a few times, twilight's initial adjustment to the human world was perfect (felt very natural, and was hilarious) and i'm definitely looking forward to when a hq version comes out cause even like this the animation already looked awesome.
edit: also, big props for making the spike integration/transition work. no, really.

Read the Nightmarity arc, they used the power of the Elements to free Rarity without the artefacts, and they had the dimensional equivalents of the other five elements.

The power used in the comic was never explicitly refered to as the power of the Elements of Harmony. You can call it that if you want, but it doesn't win your point.

This time it wasn't even THE Elements of Harmony that won the day, but Twilight's crown by itself. With it's help, the humane 6 managed to tap into it's magic with the power of their friendship and transform into those pony hybrids. We have never seen this power before, thus, it's a deus ex machina.

The "needing the physical elements" thing has been retconned. They needed them in the pilot, RoH, ACW, and MMC, but Issue #8 doesn't need them and EqG shows that they aren't all necessary at once.

Sunset implied that taking an Element to another world would cause different effects.

Besides, it wasn't even exactly them who used the Elements. Sunset was the one using the Element of Magic's power, and blasting the six ended up causing them to absorb its energy rather than get hurt by it, and used that power to blast her back.

As somepony who's been a Star Wars fan since he was a youngling this is just the way these things work, you have G-Canon, in this case the show itself, C-Canon, the comics and trading cards and such, and S-Canon, things like the toys and film, G-Canon is indisputable fact, C-Canon is fact as long as G-Canon doesn't retcon it, and S-Canon is free to be used or ignored as the writers of the former two see fit.

So dərpibooru's forum is basically reviewing the movie now, giving it 7/10s, see it if you can but completely ignorable.
However when I gave pretty much the same thing of "see it to form your own opinion, skip it if you want." With the personal score of 3/10 everyone flipped their shit because they fear offending the almighty Hasbro gods or DHX demigods.

That link name made me think they were reporting that Hasbro announced a movie followup to Equestria Girls. Fortunately, it's just an article that suggests that Equestria Girls is a pretty decent little movie that most people enjoyed, something that it's pretty safe to say now that we've got an 82% across 1400 movie-goers on Rotten Tomatoes [www.rottentomatoes.com] .

>>2524215
~~I'm having a hard time caring about how EquestriaGuy spends his free time on the Internet, but thanks for bringing that to our attention.~~

Oh, actually it makes a little more sense when you're saying Equestria Daily is pro-pony. I don't know, why wouldn't they be? Despite what you might have heard from folks who love stroking a hate boner, pony is still generally quite good good, and even Equestria Girls did not turn out to be the movie everyone loves to hate as much as we feared it would - au contraire, mostly the movie most of us thought was AOK - maybe not mind blowing, but hey, it's more pony.

I can't help but think it might be worth having some brony reactions. I honestly think they make the movie a bit better, perhaps drawing you back a bit from this being a family-friendly movie about horsey girls and more into the brony phenominon.

By whose measure? The vocal minority that make up part of the board you normally hang out on? Because it seems like any attempts to derive genuine statistics I've seen on the matter suggest otherwise: that pony is generally pretty steady in popularity and appreciation among fans.

It gets better 40 sec in. Also the ending is done well (because he realized flipping his camera gave a better picture). It also just the SD version. The HD version of the rip will come later. In the end it is a cam rip.

Pointing out the fact that being "reasonable" is irrelevant, those scores are based on how much a person enjoyed themselves, which in turn is based on emotions.

I dunno, man. There are only a handful of episodes that I would give a tenouttaten -- BG, SotC, RoH, LZ, LE, HF, and SiP -- because, even though those aren't all my favorites (although I greatly enjoy them); most episodes, even if I subjectively like them, aren't perfect. I greatly enjoy KCaFO, but I won't rate it higher than a 9.25 because of the rushed ending, and I rank both SSCS6K and AFR very high, but I'm quite aware that they have numerous problems. To be given a tenouttaten is to be considered flawless, and Equestria Girls sure ain't flawless, what with even the most Hasdroney admitting to plotholes.

It makes the viewing more enjoyable and YOU'll have a good time, but that does not a good movie make and therefore should have no effect on it's score as a movie. You're rating the experience, not the movie.

Afterall, it seems like the biggest draw to the fandom right now at the moment isn't the show itself but fans of the fandom. People who like being around other people that are similar to them. It's why we get the same 5 interview questions whenever there's a con with the show staff. It's why we raise the VA's up so high on the pedestal even though they have no effect on the writing or direction of the show, they just read lines (and read lines DAMN well).

just going to say, it is exactly what i expected, except for 2 things...

1. i though the main characters was going to help twilight with her traits to become popular and win the crown, instead they did that with a song.

2. i though flash sentry romance was going to be a little more subtle. specially after what people was saying how it doesnt even count and obscure it is.

Very angry rant to follow, contains spoilers, I'm not hiding the text wall I'm about to unleash, feel free to ignore it
Oh boy, where to start…
Those of you who know me are well aware I haven’t been happy with the series since season 3 was halfway finished. I've pretty much been griping about every single change they've made, because I hate when producers want to make a big change to something that works just so they can make a big stir and advertise for free off of it. And you also know that I've been against Equestria Girls ever since it was announced. I knew what the story was going to be, I could take a big guess at how it was all going to go down. Even if I didn't get every detail right, I knew what was going to happen. But of course, what does everyone like to say? “Don’t be so judgmental on something you haven’t seen, you’re just being hateful, I can’t believe you don’t like something that I like, blehhhh.” Well, I just watched it, and guess what? I hated it. There were some parts I did enjoy, and it did get a few laughs out of me. I’m not going to be so closed minded where I can’t admit that a small percentage of this movie did work. So here’s what I have to say:
Most of Twilight’s purpose of this movie, after stepping through the gate, was “how to fit in as these strange human creatures!”. In fact, I’d say that’s what the whole movie was until halfway through, when she finally got the gang back together and they started helping her get ready for the formal. It’s not the lowest form of entertainment, it’s just pretty unimaginative. Like they couldn't really come up with any other form of comedy like they had done in the first two seasons. So yes, it is pretty insulting to have the majority of the movie’s humor come from new world quirkiness and high school drama.
Going off of that note, another form of humor that this movie relied on too much was cameo appearances, or “look, it’s your favorite pony character, but as a human! How wacky is that!?” And yes, it did get a giggle out of me, but do you know why it did? It’s because it made me think of how much I enjoyed them in their ORIGINAL form, not this new high school teenager form. Instead of coming up with new material on their own, the movie is just stuck referencing what has already worked in the past and copying it verbatim, and after that small giggle from me, I realized how cheap it was.
Fine, I’ll admit it, human Big Macintosh was pretty cute, even if he was too skinny.
The whole splinter between the mane six felt very forced. They were just misunderstandings that none of them took the time to investigate or discuss with each other. If they had just taken five minutes to make a phone call or another email or text or whatever, then it wouldn't have had to come to princess Sparkle to force them to talk it out.
Flash Sentry: oh dear god, I cannot properly put into words how much I hate this character. Mr. Big Hunk Rocker Oh So Dreamy, please! Twilight’s attraction to him had no build, no development, no purpose to the story, nothing. He was just THERE. He was there so Twilight could make eyes at him. All she did was bump into him, and touch his hand. Ooh, what a connection! He did have one moment where he pulled Twilight out of a jam, but she was in it for about thirty seconds before he showed up, and fixed it in even less time. And she throws herself at him for it! Why is she so obsessed with this guy? She hardly even talks about why she likes him, and they have nothing in common. He’s a rocker guy with leather zipper jackets, she’s a try hard bookworm; where is the connection? I’m not asking for a match made in heaven or anything, I’m just asking for one thing in common. How about when Twilight was in the library, and Spike said that it looked like no one ever came there? Why not show him walking by her with a stack of books in his hands? “Hey, that cute guy likes books! I like books!” Connection!” Not hard! And it would have taken five seconds, if that! But without that, we have no reason for her to like him, he’s just a cute guy that she likes to look at, so they can make a boy doll for the girls to buy and pair with Twilight. Thank you Hasbro for ruining my best pony so that you could sell your toys. Absolutely disgusting.
Last ten minutes, you know what? Pretty cool. Sunset became a pretty scary looking villain, and even pulled off some radical movements (even if her plan to take over Equestria with a “teenage army” made me facepalm). And I actually really liked watching the mane six do a Sailor Moon-esque transformation to become… anthro… whatevers… they grew wings and tails respectively. And I always love seeing the double helix cannon. So yes, that works. But then right when we get back to the pony world, who’s there for us again? Oh, it’s Flash Sentry! Looks like his obnoxious self is in this world too, how swell.
I can see why some people say “it’s not as bad as I thought” or “better than I expected”. Because yes, it did surpass my expectations, by a very slim margin. I even enjoyed the second song in the movie, the one in the cafeteria, that was adorable. But guess what? It’s still bad. Even if it had some parts that I enjoyed, the overall thing is still not what this series needs. Not the worst movie I have ever seen, but certainly nothing that took my breath away and renewed my faith in the series.
It’s not just the movie that’s made me hate it so much. It’s the fact that this is what we've been building to for three years. Three years of friendship, magic, villains, story, everything that we love in the series just so the third season could get cut in half, because they’re too busy making their big box office commercial for “hey kids, it’s ponies, only not ponies! Buy it!” I remember how excited I was when I heard the possibility of MLP finally getting its own movie. I was stoked! I even defended season 3 being shortened because I knew there was going to be a movie to make up for it. But I always thought it was going to be a PONY movie, not “ponies in high school”. This didn't need to be a movie. It needed to be the premiere of season four. The entire plot of this movie could have been resolved in two, maybe three episodes. And I would have been fine- well okay, not FINE with it, but I would have at least let it slide.
The other thing that bothers me is when other fans say “Yeah, but it’s for the younger audience, and it’s their show.” I get that, yes, it’s to sell toys to girls, I understand that. But think back to why season 1 was such a hit. Wasn't it the fact that it surprised us with how little commercialism there was? I remember being shocked at thinking “Hey, it’s not just a toy commercial, it’s an actual show! I love this!” and a lot of people seemed to revolve around that idea. Since the season 2 ending, it seems like people aren't really caring about that anymore. We went from being happy that it wasn’t a commercial to accepting and even embracing its commercialism.
What… what happened? Do you guys just want more pony at any cost, even if it means ruining what made it so special in the first place? Or is there really something behind this commercialism that I’m not seeing?
Alright, I’m done. I’m going to get an ulcer if I write for much longer. Bottom line is that this movie is better than what I expected, but is still a disappointment to what this series started out as. I told Studio B to show me its war face, and it didn't convince me, they need to work on it. I have no hope for season 4 at this point. I might tune in to watch the train wreck, but I might be better off leaving it alone. It was fun while it lasted.

Just finished watching it, and I enjoyed it strangely enough! Only gunna summarise it though

Art: 8/10 - Overall decent legs far too long, and the boots looked silly, faces and hair were spot on though! Also Luna and Celestia looked pretty bad, it felt like they wern't really done very well art-wise.

Animation: 8/10 Decent however the arms and legs did look a bit gangley and weird occasionally, probably due to their length

Music: 5/10 - Probably the biggest let down, intro music was pretty bad and the songs in the film were pretty below the average show song

Story: 7/10 - Simple yet enjoyable, got sinister near the end then really cheesey but it was good!

Overall 7/10, definitely enjoyable and nowhere near as bad as people make it out to be!

PS: Trixie was amazing, so was Pinkie! (as always) :D

I think the reason I'm upset is because there's a tiny part of me that wants the show to get better so I can go back to clinging to it again, and I can't seem to snuff it out. I really want to be done with it, but... god, it just won't let me go.

Glad I have allies in this. That's comforting in a small way.

That's certainly what it seems like. Tons of people are flocking to EQG just because it has the MLP brand on it. Hell, that big article that some guy wrote about "why we need EQG" or some shit, outright said that it's going to be good just because it has ponies. Really? Blindly lapping up anything Ha$bro shits out just because it has the MLP brand on it? Yeah, no thanks.

Indeed. The fandom shoutouts were really dumb and forced, imo. Trixie's scene had literally no impact on the movie and served no purpose whatsoever, other than to have Trixie appear and say a couple lines. Really? Why is this here?

And before anyone accuses me; I'm not against fan pandering, I'm against pointless fan pandering like this Trixie scene. A shoutout to the fandom like this is fine as long as it's actually relevant to the story, not just shoved in there for the hell of having it there.

Also I dont think there's any proof to say that the cycle is driven by the fandom, other than the comics maybe? but thats off topic

thats extra, but they explicitly stated the "twin sister" on the city.

to have her on hand, because outside that, there is no point to say that.

sunset shimmer could be around to teach her stuff about being a good friend, while twilight is around to be with flash and her friends

and if you want to protest saying how flash sentry was in love with the real twilight and how she cant replace her that easily... remember how the chemistry of this 2 characters was handled from the beginning.

She said she was a little more comfortable wearing her crown. It implies some progress, but not being completely okay, similar to how GPP gave her progress on keeping her cool but still showed signs of nerves getting to her even with her breathing technique in EqG.

>>2524303
A lot of her worries come from her questioning on whether she can be a good leader. By the end, she's gotten some assurance that she can be.

They have no reason to try and "please us". Everything they've done for the fandom (which is very little, mind you) was because they thought it'd be nice. They don't have any incentive to pander to the fandom.

As for "fandom affecting the cycle", the only things that the fandom has affected in the show are:

-BG pony placement and little background scenes with BG ponies
-"Ditzy Doo" being changed to "Dərpy" in TLR

Those are the only two things that come to mind. Seeing as the fandom didn't even exist until after S2's writing was completed, it makes sense that only minor changes have been made. S3 was also very light on fandom nods, and contained no Dərpy at all except for MMC.

So I guess that come S4 we'll see, but I still don't think (and I really hope) that the fandom doesn't affect the show very much at all.

Which makes absolutely no sense because she was a "leader" many, many times in the TV series. Hell, there was even an entire fuckin' episode about her being a good leader: Winter Wrap Up.

Something about Twilight is that she tends to feel pressured by the expectations that she imposes on herself. She feels like she constantly needs to live up to a high standard, like in LZ where she worries she'd fail as a student for missing one letter, even though she's shown to be an excellent one.

True, but she's shown that she's a great leader time and time again in FIM, and there was a whole episode about how great of a leader she is.

True, but Twilight showed skills in organizing ponies themselves, and making sure everything and everyone was working smoothly. In Winter Wrap Up, she did the mayor's job better than the mayor could do it. Seems like good leadership skills to me.

A few examples, though, if you insist:

-Winter Wrap Up
-Dragonshy(to a lesser extent)
-It's About Time
-RoH had her in the role of a leader, for the most part
-The Crystal Empire
-Magic Duel(again to a lesser extent, but still there)

Didn't she already prove that she was ready to be a princess in MMC, like Celestia said?

Which is another thing that bugs me: How the fuck did it take them this long to figure out that something was up? If all of the dirty work was done via texts and emails...why didn't they just, you know, text or email back saying "wtf m8?" or something? After so long, surely ONE of them would have realized something was wrong.

I'm saying that it makes no sense that she doesn't believe she's ready. She's shown great leadership skills all throughout FIM. Did she forget all those times she lead other ponies with great skill?

>Twilight convinced them it was Sunset who set them against each other.

Somewhat, yes, but they pretty much figured it out amongst themselves after Twilight pointed it out to them.

Why couldn't they figure it out by themselves, though? The fact that it took them this long to figure out something so simple in the first place is just...what? Maximum "idiot ball", right there. I remember seeing a review that said a lot of plot elements relied solely on the stupidity of characters...I know what he means, now.

Actually that seems pretty realistic to me, it's pretty normal for a person to be skilled at something but feel nervous about stepping up to a high profile role. Dee is quite confident in his abilities as a cook and baker, and is surprisingly good at public speaking given his social anxiety, but he'd be nervous as fuck about the idea of having his own cook show.

i dont think question why sunset shimmer is realted or not.

but for example, if my supposed good friends send me an email saying "hey you pony femoral artery, you are not invited to my party"

next day i will ask him "im supposed to be a good friend of yours, then why you exclude me from your party and call me a pony femoral artery"

and following the logic of equestria girl he should answer me "what are you talking about, you are the one who told me i was a pony femoral artery and hoped my party burn" so i will never speak with you again, even we have been good friends for years and something weird just happened.

and all we need is equestria guy claiming "it wasnt sunset fault?" and we are going to be like "really unlikely even we havent talk about it"

we cant solve it ourselve with common sense.
but we dont talk and are stupid becase we need equestria guy to become the princess of the fall ponychan dance

Those are weak excuses to problems that could be normally solved with common sense.

Doubly so if you consider the fact that Sunset Shimmer doesn't really come off as rather deceptive at all, at least not in a convincing way. She just fucks around with everybody and noone questions her for it. She doesn't seem like a typical "popular girl" with many friends either, so what stops the rest of the student body to stand up against her when she's clearly just a bitch who screws around with anyone she has a problem with? I guess they needed Twilight to come fix that with her mere presence.

She spends the entire movie creating deception. Even her bluff to smash the portal was a deception.

And yet she's not convincing with it. Everyone at the school already knows she's a devious bastard, people just seem to generally not care, as long as they're not a target of her antics. Any trouble she cooks up is resolved in a few minutes at most.

I think the problem with that scene is a combination of how easily she's proven innocent and how obvious, that the photos were doctored even before. If you call in someone to talk to them about something and they rather blatantly have no idea what you're talking about, there should be some suspicion around there. Then, a couple cut out photos and without a doubt the mind is changed. Those two scenes plus the ending "I didn't know there was another way!" scene are gaping holes in the movie. The fact that so many people are talking about how much they loved it makes me really question the direction the fandom has taken, this was clearly sub par when held up to even the average episodes.

The biggest issue I had with that scene was how it was probably the only moment where Flash is of any use. He digs through the trash, Twilight's in that dark room for maybe a good fifteen seconds (I'll have to go back and time it) then Flash shows up and the lights come up in about ten seconds. She was in peril for less than thirty seconds, he comes and shows some trash, and she THROWS herself at him. Good lord, is it that easy to pick up a pony girl? Get them out of trouble with the principal, and they're putty in your hands? Was Twilight always that man-desperate?

I think it had less to do with Twilight Sparkle and more to do with how Brad Sentry was the high school heartthrob that every girl in school wanted to ~~have wild carnal pleasures with until they get teen pregnant and tie him down with a lifetime of child support payments~~ enjoy a healthy G-rated-movie platonic relationship with.

Naturally, Twilight's introverted powers of nerd girl were no match for this stud muffin, and it was only through convenient magical princess events and only having three days in the human world that she escaped his clutches. But he'll hook up with Sunset Shimmer and be rearing half-pony monstrosities in no time..

The theatre I saw it in was the only one playing it in a 40 mile radius and it was a pretty even turn out from all walks of the fandom. That made it super enjoyable to see the kids (boys and girls) enjoy it and I got to chat with some cool bronies with cool merch.
I understand your anxiety, I realize that a lot of the fandom is introverted man-children that like MMORPGs n shit; but those people are nice and you already have something in common with them; and if your reading this you're obviously passionate about the franchise enough to wade through a swampy bog of forum wars.

shit, her 180, where she made her Tweedle Dee face, wasn't nearly as bad as several other things.

-They could have had a tape recorder of Ashleigh Ball saying "awesome" in Dash's voice. She said it like 4 times in the movie. It's like Dash became her FiW parody self.

-The premise is awful, although I love how they made it work.

-Sunset's goal was a pile of shit. This show is supposed to better than this. Her goal was to take over the world with an "army" of a couple dozen teenagers? Fucking seriously?

1) They would have emerged into Equestria as ponies, and wouldn't even be able to walk.

2) They'd land inside the Crystal Castle and immediately be besieged by an army of armored and armed guards, not to mention 3 alicorns, blasting away at them with magic, AND 5 of the 6 EoH bearers, assuming Twilight doesn't just follow them through.

3) Go get the actual fucking army if you're going to hypnotize people and make an army.

4) What exactly are a couple dozen teenagers going to do against the Equestrian military anyways?

-I hated the transformation sequence. There was too much time between the individual sequences. Imagine if you're Sunset Shimmer, and Twilight is shouting at you one word at a time, every 10 seconds. It just sounded awful, and that echo made it worse. Honesty...............................................................................................................................................
........................coffee break.....................brb checking twitter............................Kindness............................................................ahh fuck, so what are you up to today?....................LOYALTY!

-One example of using technology as a means of deception is enough, but it gets hammered again, and again. Does Sunset get paid by TMZ or something?

1) smear campaign video
2) destroy HUmane 5 with various texts
3) ghetto photoshop

-Why does anyone put up with Sunset? Just kick her in the femoral artery and be done with it.

-Why doesn't she just steal the thing back from Luna?

-The ghetto photoshop scene shouldn't have been in there at all. It was resolved too quickly. Do something else, I don't care what.

-Oh, and fucking please restructure the scene where Twilight meets Fluttershy. Make the introduction first, to maintain the integrity of the shyness Fluttershy is supposed to be feeling, THEN carry on about pets and Sunset and shit.

This would have been the best of all possible things if Hasbro had simply given DHX all the freedom to do with this that they gave them for FiM. There wouldn't have been any school nonsense, no dumb flank plot to march a ragtag army of teenagers into Equestria. What a haphazard pile of shit plan that is. I can't fathom a scenario where that works at all, to any degree. Maybe they can occupy the TV room in the Crystal Castle and play X-Box, that's about it.

Who the fuck are you and what have you done with the Equestria Guy that love love loooooves this must-see movie and anyone saying its bad is a hater?
Is it because now that its largely available due to qualiy camrips and fewer and fewer people unconditionally love it and are being critical of it that you are too now? Or were you finally able to take off your rose-tinted glasses about the Equestria Girls "experience" of seeing it in the theater alongside fellow social rejects and the intended target audience?

Lets see your rating of the movie now, compared to your highest rated episode of FiM. Not what you think of it for a children's show. Not the experience of going to see something with fellow pony lovers. Your personal opinion, your ranking of the movie as well as the score out of 10 of your highest rated episode.

Is it still 8/10? Would you replace FiM with EqG if it came down to it? Do you want to see EqG turn into an ongoing thing? Do you want FiM to crossover with EqG at some point?

Makes sense to me, because I'm on the same boat. When I came from the movie, I gave it a 7/11 (on the 11 point Anime News Network scale that adds to the beginning rather than the end) and would watch again.

But, just because I think it turned out to be a good little installment in the MLP:FIM series does not mean it's immune to nitpicking (far from it) nor that I think going hooman was a good idea.

A good opinion isn't two tone; It's not all the way one way or the other, because virtually nothing in life is, really. Taking a measure, I'd give it 7.5/10 (when I tried to convert it back from the ANN scale) and also factored in that having bronies in the theater cheering at the cameos they saw might have enhanced the enjoyment factor a bit, sort of like being in a roaring crowd at the baseball field as opposed to watching the baseball game going on via a shaky cam on YouTube 500 miles away.

Would I, then, come back to the people at home and say, "Wow, that baseball game/Equestria Girls movie was a lot of fun, you should probably go see it if you like teh ponies?" You bet. Are you going to interpret this recommendation as, "OMFG BEST MOVIE EVER IN THE HISTORY OF CARTOON CINEMATOGRAPHY." Hopefully not, but I've met a lot of people on the Internet who would.

No, flankhole, I'm allowed to criticize things, and since it's "dog pile on EquestriaGuy" day, like it is EVERY DAY, I'm taking my ball and going home. You'll hear from me again when I have more news on S4, and with Claire Corlett heading to Europe for a month, that means S4 voice recording is wrapping, or has already wrapped. My best speculation is they're recording the finale this Thursday.

>also factored in that having bronies in the theater cheering at the cameos they saw might have enhanced the enjoyment factor a bit, sort of like being in a roaring crowd at the baseball field as opposed to watching the baseball game going on via a shaky cam on YouTube 500 miles away.
So you can't separate the experience being with people and watching a movie? I have watched shitty movies with friends and laughed my flank off. But not ever did I thing it made the movie itself better. Nor would I include that experience if I was going to rate it.

A wise man knows his limitations, and I know better than to try to extrapolate that I'm having an experience I'm not. I watched it in a theater with the other bronies, not on YouTube. I'm not sure how much that influenced my 7.5/10. I'm not even sure which direction it influenced it, really - maybe I would like the movie even more without those frequent interruptions? But I am thinking it was probably positive.

I'm not in the position to have to try harder because I've already seen it in theaters. I could even go back and see it again if I want - I lucked out and live within 25 miles of one of the theaters showing it, and the theater in question only charges $5 a ticket. (It probably says something about the movie that I'm not bothering to watch it again. Well, would you go out of your way to watch a 7.5/10 a second time?)

Anyway, I'm planning on snagging it on iTunes when it's released, and that's all the quality control I need.

How about we turn this into something constructive?

Anon, I disagree that EQG was merely "meh" despite its flaws, which I've spelled out. Later on I can post a novel of all its high points, but for now it'll suffice to say that the subtleties, consistencies with FiM, and the sheer glowing positivity of this movie more than make up for the flaws. And really, like I've said before, the most important thing about pony is how it makes you feel in the end, since your enjoyment stems largely from living vicariously through 6 friends for 22m a week, rather than holding a gun to the head of the creators and demanding Oscar worthy perfection. This isn't Schindler's List, nor does it, or should it try to be. It's the sometimes fun, sometimes heartwarming, sometimes inspiring adventures of the mane 6, and in something like that you have to allow yourself to absorb what you see and hear, not what you demand or expect.

Trixie's 2nd vending machine appearance is the single worst scene in the history of G4. The first one was fine, and humorous in some way, but the second one is pointless. It's right up there with the Snowflake appearances in Double Rainboom. I mean, is she so anorexic that she lingers around the vending machine all day, dreaming about the food she allows herself to eat? There's probably a buffet at the fall formal, and here she is dry humping the fucking vending machine, hoping some peanut butter crackers fall out.

Ehh, not all series finales that I've seen have included all the secondary characters. The Teen Titans series finale didn't have Terra in it, for example, despite her appearing in quite a few prior episodes.

Or like in FIM, how MMC was a supermajor episode but didn't have the CMC in it at all.

The logic isn't entirely nonsensical, but it's kinda dodgy.

The difference is A: Terra was a secondary character but not a secondary main character, a better example would have been the East (or was it West, I can never remember) coast team with Speedy and the others, though granted I don't know if I ever actually saw the series finale for Teen Titans, or if a real finale even exists or if it's like ReBoot and was just canceled on a cliffhanger, so I don't know if they appeared or not, and B: Magical Mystery Cure was a major occurrence, but not a series finale, and the CMC weren't really necessary for the story since it was about Twilight who has no real connection to them.

Ok, I'm not entirely sure where your point is going here, or if I understand it and disagree... Cause the general gist seems to be "it's ok if it isn't very good, as long as you have a good imagination, or just like seeing the characters do stuff"

I'm just not sure that saying it doesnt have to be perfect is as strong an argument as saying, for instance, that it gives up some elements so that it can focus on other ones.

No, I'm saying it is good, and that focusing on flaws rather than the experience runs counter to the spirit of the show.

Let's say you're on one of those theme park rides that uses animatronics. You're in your seat surrounded by other patrons, and here you are shouting out how fake the zombies look, and elbowing the guy next to you, saying how not scary the ride is. Everyone else here is trying to have a good time, and yet you're incapable of taking in and enjoying the ride in your preoccupation with the semantics.

Yes, Sunset's plan was a steaming pile of dog shit. Some scenes were executed poorly, but I'll be damned if I let myself get distracted by something so incredibly unimportant and besides the point of the movie, that I let it ruin the movie for me all together.

So much goodness and awesomeness came out of this, and it'd be a shame to let it go ignored just because of a hang up over a scene, or a plot hole, or a personal expectation over where I think it should go.

well, if i have to find out some good on equestria girls. it will be the idea about promoting twilight to become the princess of the dance.

instead of a montage of the 5 friends helping twilight to became an important an popular human to win the rest of the people, her focuse was about turning her into a unity simbol, to restructure the school faith and confidence....

but that was reduced to just make a dance at the lunch time... and a little more of random people coming in to help restoring the dance place

but i guess is better than turning twilight into a pretty popular girl...

yea, but they just said it.

"twilight, you will be our girl, sunset shimmer divided us, you will unite the school"

dance with song.

WURRAY, TWILIGHT IS INSPIRING

everyone help just by coincidence

the school support twilight. even she didnt make anything, she didnt orginized it.

and then celestia tell us what was twilight supposed to do.

but they did that just by singing one and a half.

just saying, i liked where there was going... but it wasnt that fantastic.

but hey, could have been worst, like how discord and fluttershy became friends come to my mind.

the school thing, yea, i know it will be extreme even to me, start questioning how no one will ask twilight "why you are not in class", specially because what US cartoon teach me is than you have school police or something like that (even was a cartoon about a black kid around all that).

i consider just better question what make big changes in the story, because that way it can feel natural, or just the writer godly finger altering everything to fit his happy ending.

and for pinkie pie, well, she is pinkie pie, she is supposed to be nuts and do magical crazy things just because is pinkie pie.
question her at this level doesnt bring anything good.

while she doesnt use her pinkie madness to solve big problems just because is pinkie im fine what ever she wants to say.

Probably because they never planned on it being shown in theaters, just like how the Clone Wars movie was originally planned as a TV movie. Top Draw even labeled the project as being for a DVD.

So long as you're in school, you're less likely to be bugged. Most would probably just assume Twilight had a free period and be on their way, not keeping track of her.

Everyone goes to school there, there is no world beyond the borders of that campus, this is why Twilight slept in the library, if they attempt to leave that campus they will simply fall into a never ending abyss from which there is no escape.

Three word review of EqG: Goddamit it, Pinkie!

Slightly longer review: meaninglessly trite plot saved from being a bad experience by 1) me watching it at home as opposed to being in a theater 2) me watching it on a Stream with friends 3) me not actually paying any money for this and 4) the entire movie essentially being self-referential in-jokes with itself. Once I got over the fact that the entire thing was predictable as hell and started just realizing, holy crap, they packed this thing with every possible little thing they could think o- OH HEY THERE'S ANOTHER VISUAL GAG!- then it became pretty hilarious.

Best parts were Twilight's early failures to make heads or tales of human life, the various Fluttershy abuse, and pretty much all of Spike's and Rarity's lines. The worst parts were probably anything to do with Brad (I'm probably due for a rant about how he's the exact same character as Shining, this perfect male that just laughs off everything stupid girls do and still stalks them unconditionally with luv, which is I think how FiM is starting to see guys) and, uh, most of the actual main storyline.

Recommendation: grab some friends and have someone stream it. Laugh a lot. Get over yourselves. Then probably pretend it never happened.

Like most of the songs, it didn't feel particularly FiM-ish, but it was still alright.

That song probably is a good measuring stick for the entire movie, really - if someone finds this okay and likes the animation and the references in the background, then the movie is just more of that. If someone can't sit through that entire song without needing to stop the video to preserve their sanity, then yeah, they're prolly not gunna like the movie at all.

I'm not entirely sure what exactly counts as "pop" music, tbh, and in general I don't really listen to today's pop music at all, mostly because I don't have a radio.

But EQG's music sounds just like music that you'd hear on Disney Channel. Like...Hannah Montana crap. Upbeat pop music aimed at tween/teen girls. Do not want.

I'm not criticizing the songs themselves, I just hate the fact that they all sound VERY similar, and they're all tween-pop, which is a genre I've never liked.

I agree with that.

With FiM, the ponies are of a sort of ambiguous age. You can't tell if they're teens or adults, and they live completely independently, so that frees them from the shackles of being shoehorned into any perceptive role, and any viewer can relate to them.

With EQG, we know they're most likely high school seniors, meaning 17-18, and because of the setting, they're put in situations that only a girl of that age range can relate to, so the broad spectrum of audience that can latch onto the show gets far narrower. The only people who would then like EQG, outside of the target demo, are those who can look beyond gender their roles, and life experiences, and how they relate to ourselves personally, and not be put off by what we see, hear, and feel.

As I've said many times, enjoying FiM largely comes from how what you see, hear, and feel as a result of living vicariously through the characters, so if those characters are 17-18yo girls, you might not like or feel comfortable with what you see, hear, or feel.

I think you should consider the kind of position you are in with respect to the genre. It is similar to how, say a grandparent would find himself versus heavy rock songs, or a somewhat unbright highschooler towards classical music. Or even myself, and surely most of us, towards most kinds of rap.

And it is indeed unfortunate to have to put up with an unfavorable genre, but it is quite immature to continuously bark against the songs and the genre.

Furthermore, it borders on self-righteous that you believe that the movie targeting a single demographic is a problem, as you seem to imply that you somehow expected, or believed you deserved or had the right to, a movie that, as I alluded, would be of similar quality to a Pixar movie, for example, even though it was clear to all of us from quite early on that the premise of the movie is not such Pixar material. It is no more than a privilege for anything in the FiM to appeal to us, and I would take this movie and any negative reactions against it from yourself and many others here as a reminder of this privilege, which is one that is pitifully easy for Hasbro to revoke.

I don't have a problem with a "movie targeting a single demographic", I have a problem with EQG taking two steps backwards from FIM.

It is a problem because the entire reason FIM is popular is because it broke away from being a "girl cartoon" and instead appealed to everyone. It didn't focus on appealing to girls and nobody else, it tried to appeal to kids and adults, regardless of gender. Equestria Girls takes a step backwards and tries to appeal to only teenage girls. That's not very good, in my eyes.

And you're right, but did you have much good reason to expect otherwise before watching the movie, based on the premise? Put another way, how does one expect a plant to grow perfectly as well as its usual soil when planted in questionable soil. How does the rational man damn the plant and not the gardner for changing the soil?

Allow me to extend my allegory.

A plant that has grown for years quite satisfactorily in fertile soil and is now attempted to be planted in soil that most are not comfortable with. Clearly, we should not expect as much fruit. Half of us expected no fruit and the other half remained optimistic.

And so the plant sprouts and buds, and even the most critical of us must admit some fruit is edible. Should the rational person not appreciate that, what was essentially an experiment, albeit one with a hasty design, bore some fruit? That the plant could still survive on such soil should we be deprived of the fertile soil? Is it not reasonable that the irrational person curses at the lack of fruit following cursing at the new soil, for no person is obligated to take the fruit or to enjoy its alternative flavour? Can't such a person leave the plant be, without advertising dissent, and wait until the plant's proper season?

So we can't hold it to FiM standards and if we hold it to its own standards and we don't like it then we're wrong and not supposed to even see it because its not for us.

EQG is different for the reasons I stated earlier, but it is justified to encourage someone to give EQG a chance on the basis that FiM sucked in non target demographic fans.

Well I'm not going to make someone else's argument, but based on what you're saying, I do agree with him that the show primarily isn't for us. No one sells dolls to adult males, so our attention isn't expected or required. I do also think it looks silly for an adult male to be railing against a cartoon for little girls, because it didn't meet their entertainment standards. Remember, FiM is the exception, not the rule.

In the most important ways, to me, it did not. I didn't feel the same way I felt with FiM. Does that make me wrong? No. Does it make you wrong to feel the same way about EqG as you do FiM? No. So lets get back on track and talk about what we liked or didn't like about the movie, rather than if its okay or not okay for someone to like or dislike the movie.

So I'm sensing that the general criticism-deflector argument is that "it's not made for us, therefor your criticism is invalid". That may be partially true, but...that's the very problem I have with EQG.

FIM set out to make a "girl" cartoon that appeals to everyone, not just its target demographic. And that's what made it so awesome and insanely popular.

EQG on the other hand took a step backwards and tried to appeal only to tween girls. What with the cliche highschool plot, and the tween-pop music, etc. etc...why? Why would they deliberately kill off the thing that made FIM great? It boggles my mind.

But back to the "it's not for us, you can't criticize it" argument...why is my criticism invalid, but other peoples' praise is fine? Criticizing something not meant for you is bad, but praising something not meant for you is fine?

There's also the fact that EQG is an extension of FIM, so why is it bad that people are expecting it to be as good as FIM, or appeal to the same demographic? Like the anon said, it tries to simultaneously be like FIM, and also be its own thing, at the same time. That's kinda...odd.

Now, I guess I should draw the isomorphism from the allegory to this situation.

The plant's genetic material can be seen as the team behind FiM. The soil sets the premises and the degrees of freedom allowed for growth and the fruit is the total final outcome.

The same plant in new and shaky soil, new premises, won't necessarily bear the same kind of fruit. As far as we are concerned, this is a one time thing, an attempt with this soil and nothing more. Now, there is a clear divide in the fandom, and in the analogy it is this: the people who appreciate what fruit did appear, who find things have gone better than expected, and the people who are in disdain of the final product.

And it appears to us, who appreciate the results that did come about, that the latter group as in the following situation: Not only is the plant being grown just once on this soil and not only are you just damning the soil, but you also expected some fruit to come about to impress you, and when you were underwhelmed, you damned the fruit you never expected to grow in the first place!

Not only will there probably never be another Equestria Girls movie, and not only did you bitch and moan OMFGHUMANPONI, but you also went into the movie, expecting to either be convinced otherwise or be underwhelmed, and bitch and moan some moar about how the FiM team bombed the movie that you never expected to take off in the first place? And then complain that it's the ones who enjoyed the movie, appreciating what could come about, that are wrong about calling you illogical and not the audience the movie intended?

Mother of God, of course you're not the intended audience. You went into that movie without the same expectation of quality. Why didn't you just watch a special Mexican soap opera and bitch and moan about how off the romance dynamics were from the norm?

So basically, yes, "your criticism is invalid because you're not the intended audience". Right. About that...

Like the anon said, it seems to try and reach for both demographics at the same time, in various ways.

The movie in general seems to be pushing towards tweens with its general premise and its tween-pop music and highschool social drama crap, but at the same time, there's a good handful of fandom nods and references and blatant fandom pandering within the movie.

It's trying to be its own thing, but at the same time, trying to be FIM as well, and failing at it.

Could have fooled me. Many folks are saying that a My Little Pony fan should love a My Little Pony movie because its My Little Pony, regardless of age or gender because of FiM.

You should understand what is meant by "intended audience". You are not in the intended audience if you did not expect the premise to allow for a good movie. You've also said so yourself in that FiM to EqD is like apples and oranges. This is true because the degrees of freedom are different. The playing field was changed for the team, and criticizing it for not meeting the standards set over a different field is irrational.

Yes it's a subjective opinion, but that doesn't mean it's a good flick. Kids can like and dislike the movie too.
The whole point I'm trying to make is you think it's a good movie both as a MLP film and a kids movie. I disagree. I think it's pretty meh as an MLP film and not something I would take kids to see. And I dont like the humanizations and hate the reason for them existing. You disagree. But that doesn't make either of us wrong, just that we have different tastes.

The way they set it up, it actually seems to be intended as a one time only thing. At the very least, everyone will have graduated in Equestria Girls by the time the portal reopens, so that would lose the whole high school appeal of the universe that Hasbro wants.

That scares me to think what the human mane 6 will do after high school, so lets get into it.

Rarity goes to College to become a fashion designer. She starts a company and it's pretty popular.

Applejack would probably work at her farm until she realizes that the money isn't that great and then leaves to join the traveling rodeo.

Pinkie Pie goes to college and parties crazy hard so it takes her 4 years to get a 2 year degree and then goes into event coordination.

Rainbow Dash goes to college on a full ride scholarship for soccer and makes the women's Olympic team and gets big money from endorsement deals.

Fluttershy goes to college to become a veterinarian. She great at it but is too caring, and her over-hospitable ways are not financially sustainable and she ends up working and living at the local animal shelter.

>You should understand what is meant by "intended audience". You are not in the intended audience if you did not expect the premise to allow for a good movie.

...So if one doesn't like something, that means one is not part of the "intended audience" ? That doesn't make much sense. You can be in the intended audience and still not like something. And while EQG was mostly aimed at tweens, it's not completely aimed at tweens. I don't see why it's wrong for me to dislike it, but okay for you to like it, when we're both "not the intended audience". That seems like a huge double standard to me.

>You've also said so yourself in that FiM to EqD is like apples and oranges.

No, I said that COMPARING them in the specific way that I outlined, is apples and oranges. People keep trying to bring up this argument that:

"Oh, you gave FIM a chance and it was good, why can't you give EQG a chance?"

When it's two completely different situations.

Nobody was expecting FIM to be good, and hell, nobody really knew it was going to exist, outside of hardcore MLP fans. It took us by surprise and was awesome.

EQG on the other hand, the whole fandom knew it was going to exist a long time in advance, and we had all sorts of information about it months before its release.

Apples to oranges.

>The playing field was changed for the team, and criticizing it for not meeting the standards set over a different field is irrational.

Like the other anon said, the fact that it's mostly targeting a different audience than FIM is not my main issue. My main issue is that I didn't like the movie for various reasons. I'm not judging it on FIM's standards, I'm judging it on its own standards.

That''s what you'll get from true fan mentality, though I don't think that's Schrödinger's point or mentality.

He's saying that, if we aren't little girls, we shouldn't've expected a good movie to come from this. And I agree. I'm still upset with the premise, and so are you, but, with us knowing the premise, he's saying we shouldn't care about the final result because we should've known it would be garbage, which it was.

So, be mad at the premise, but ignore the final product that you already know is shit due to the premise, is what I'm getting from them.

Dear Princess Celestia,
Today I learned that sometimes if you don't like something, it doesn't mean you can't enjoy it. When a true friend shows you the reason you dislike something is because you had unreasonable expectations, it's important to keep them from influencing your opinion and being able to truly appreciate that thing for what it is and not what you want it to be.

I.. What? How in the wide wide world of Equestria can someone enjoy something they don't like?
That's like saying an arachnophobe enjoys going to the spider exhibit at the zoo.
What I learned is that people have different tastes in things and that's perfectly fine. Not everyone has to like something just because society or your peers labeled you to like something.
If someone expected it to be shit, and it was shit. That's fine. If someone expected it to be shit, and it was good. That's fine too. If someone expected it to be good, and it was shit. Also fine. If someone expected it to be good and it was good. Fine.
There's a lot of attacking and defending going on when there doesn't need to be. It's just people having different opinions on the same thing.

It's "unreasonable" to expect that an FIM movie will appeal to the same broad demographic as FIM?

http://tv.yahoo.com/news/little-pony-equestria-girls-takes-ponies-brand-universe-180300415.html

Yahoo: Did "Equestria Girls" give you a chance to explore anything you've been dying to try for the last couple of television seasons? Now that they are girls and they are in high school.

Meghan: "That's a good question. Definitely, there are some types of things that we don't do on the show that we explore a little bit in this movie. We'll see -- if things happen to go forward -- that we might explore different aspects of relationships that in the pony world don't quite work the same as they do when you set it in a high school setting."

This all but confirms plans to create more EQG content.

Also this quote is interesting, in that it answers some question as to Sunset's mindset, and how she became evil.

Yahoo: Sunset Shimmer, Twilight Sparkle's new nemesis, comes across as a mean girl, but there is some disagreement about how mean she truly is. She also has been described as being fairly dark. How does she fit into the "My Little Pony" universe?

Meghan: "Rebecca Shoichet, voice of Sunset Shimmer: She's a character that struggles with making relationships, and she develops habits that are not good. And she learns to like them. She also sees when Sparkle comes in how important it is to make friends"

This question is about the music

Yahoo: What was different about the music choices when scoring "Equestria Girls"?

Will Anderson: "Sometimes, the characters and performances for me are so strong and defined for me musically that when I was doing the movie, we were just there. I had a conversation with [director Jayson Thiessen]: "Do we want to reinvent? Do we need new themes?" He said, "No, no, it's still the same world." The characters are so strong.

The scores remained orchestral, which is what we usually do, with elements of thrash rock once in a while. We go punk-totally sometimes."

Daniel Ingram: "The songs would sound out of place in the regular TV show. What happens in "Equestria" is a very distinctive style of song, a whole new approach: much more urban, much more modern-sounding. That will be quite a shift between those two worlds.

The songs were very different; electric guitar is almost never heard in the series. There's a lot of drums, guitars, contemporary beats, very rich pop vocal textures -- something we generally don't do in the show. So it's a new direction."

I believe StarMane meant more of, trying to find things you enjoy within the work even if you dislike many things. You can dislike the thing as a whole, but they may be saying to try to find something you enjoy between the things you dislike. Like how, I think it was Ivynn, disliked the premise and at first disliked the entire movie, but he found himself enjoying the facial expressions and references to the series, and, although as a whole he dislikes Equestria Girls, he enjoyed the movie for the references to the series.

Now, unfortunately for me, I'm not a fan of references in large doses. Double Rainboom suffered due to the quantity of references -- not that it would've been good even without the references, but, you see what I mean. This movie sounds to have less may-mays, opting for references to canon moments instead, but, it's a similar principle so I doubt that'd make the movie enjoyable for me. Those that would like it, however, can probably get enjoyment from the movie for that.

I disagree. I want to see the mane 5 meet human Twi and befriend her, all while there's an unspoken awkwardness stemming from their experiences with the other Twi. Maybe this Twi knows all about what happened the night of the Fall Formal and can't simply live up to the reputation set by Princess Twi. I'd also like to see what they do with Sunset, and eventually maybe see her return to Equestria.

I'll say this, if this was only intended as a one shot, they would have written it so Twi brings back Sunset, but they kept her in the AU, so there's got to be plans there.

So a single line about "I didn't know there was another way!" after being Doucheface Supreme for 40 minutes is "seeing how important it is to make friends", eh? If you insist, Meghan.

But that's just the thing, there isn't very much that I like about EQG. I can't think of anything in particular that I like about it, really. I don't like the character designs, I don't like the story, the humor isn't my style, the fandom shout-outs (or more like scream-outs, for some of them) were almost as forced and cringeworthy as Double Rainboom's, the music is again, not my style, the new characters were bland and 1-dimensional, etc. etc....I can't think of anything that I really liked about it.

Amending this to say- personal opinion here:
I'll be more inclined to ignore future EqG content going forward now that the Twilight/Spike linking it to FiM is back where they belong. But I'm speculating that S4 will be the end of G4 FiM and going forward, rather than having the team work on virtually two of the same projects at once will begin S1 of EqG and have the S4 finale wrap it up for syndication.
Welcome to G4.5. Requesting EqG get its own sub-board and have /arch/ for MLP:FiM.

Now that I've finally managed to see the movie, my thoughts:

I enjoyed the movie quite a bit. Perhaps I'm too easily amused, but many scenes got quite a laugh out of me.

There were a scene or two that sorta made we wanna skip them: The transformation scene at the end was a little corny, in my opinion.

Also near the end, Sunset Shimmer's desire to actually KILL Twilight, spoken onscreen. Seriously?! That's effin' hardcore! I did a double take after that line.

So my final verdict: unless you are very deep in the "I hate this and will never watch it, don't even make me" bunker, give it a chance. You may be surprised.

Funny enough, I watched the same camrip clip twice. The first time, I thought she said, "she must die," the second time I thought she said, "she must be dealt with." I think maybe there's just one version, but way the line is read makes it hard to make out the difference.

Correct. On the camrip I watched, it's almost very clear that she says "die" if the volume is not loud enough.

Only when it's loud enough can "be dealt with" be heard at all.

The alternate version theory isn't mine. TVtropes as well as other individuals reported the discrepancies, apparently grouped by theater, and differences in volume in each theater does account for different hearings.

So I guess we can conclude that the only correct line is "she must be dealt with", and "she must die" is probably a neurological completion because of the many sounds that do overpower right when Sunset Shimmer says "be dealt with".

i have seen a lot of reviews.

claiming how incredible funny and how they was laughing so hard....

but that didnt happen to me, i had some little laughs, like one ha, or something....

then they claim how the movie blowed their expectations....

what was people really expecting for it? to be the a fully abomination of an insult to people intelligence?

to me was almost what i was expecting, teenage twilight with a ton of stereotype stuff with a complete predictable story given for the trailer. but like the staff was going to try it was going to have some fun

and the mention of the cameos... the cameos are that extremely important?
in any case, there is a cameo than half prove one thing i was expecting, dərpy appearing will be reduced to little frames on screen and places where no one will take a look, because it have to be hidden to not cause problems, but it have to be there to shut the fans up.
....

if this is to long, then i will ask.... it was really that funny to put people laughing hard?

- people see what just happend
- she appear in the last episode in places where she just have frame counted screen time.
- equestria girls comes out, she have a frame counted appeance in the lunch place song. then she appear in the last seconds of the credits, 1:32 minutes after normal people and kids start leaving, then the cherry on the top... in the camrip i was watching the theater turned off the screen before dərpy could appear.....

yea... just a coincidence to have her in the more obscure places to please us...

It's not like all her appearances in season 2 were obvious. A lot of people missed moments like Dərpy peeking her head out of Fluttershy's chicken coop, appearing during the Becoming Popular song, or being with the Doctor in the zoomed out part of Perfect Stallion until people pointed her out.

TGSB !SWAGOLYINE 27 Jun 2013 19:50:22 GMT No.2524666

Ok, review time!

I thought it really wasn't as bad as I expected, but it also wasn't as good as I wanted...which seems to be the general sentiment

A few things I would like to mention, I don't see how the ending was a deus ex machina, nor how this was an abomination, but it wasn't my favorite thing in the world and can understand not liking it.

Pros:
1. The atmosphere. It felt good watching it, it was almost as good as a good FiM episode in this regard, but not quite.
2. The Characters. Besides Rainbow Dash saying Awesome too much I liked all the Mane six a LOT. All of them were pretty likeable and dynamic
3. The Background Music...fit the scene well, set mood well, had multiple styles, didn't "mickey mouse"; overall pretty great
4. The animation during song sequences was pretty good
5. The storyboarding was stellar at least from first watch. Everything had a set feel to it and the hallways all led to the same stuff.

Meh/conflicted parts:
1. Songs. I thought they were a lot more adventurous structure and influencewise than people have been saying, but they still came off as MOSTLY bland.
2. Animation had good points and bad points. One, it should have shown upskirts of Twilight the whole time but they bended gravity to make it not happen. I'm not asking for them to allow it, that would be awkward, I'm just saying they could have gotten around it better. Two, they felt like they would be a bit lankier if they had those proportions. But overall I thought it wasn't really that bad at all...just not great.
3. I liked Sunset Shimmer, but her plan was stupid. She had a magnetic personality and was kinda fun imo...but army of teenagers, really?

Cons:
1. Flash Sentry...Didn't like him at all, and it has nothing to do with MUH TWAIFU (I'm fine with a one off love interest), he simply was incredibly bland imo
2. Snips and Snails...not much more needs to be said I think
3. PACING. Seriously, this needed another hour. Terrible pacing. There was hardly any time for or between plot points.

overall, 7.5/10 score subject to change. Objectively probably 6.5/10 or 7/10, but I enjoyed it more than that

It was not bravery that caused Spike to go through the portal after Twilight Sparkle, so much as being so integrally her right hand dragon that he couldn't imagine Twilight Sparkle doing without him on her mission (and neither could the writers, apparently).

It took a lot of impulsiveness for Spike to disobey Celestia's orders like that. It's an unusual day when Spike is even more impulsive than Rainbow Dash is.

The portal was still open for all of them. It was not the portal that stopped them from following Twilight Sparkle: it was Celestia telling them that their going through the portal to follow Twilight Sparkle could cause problems. Spike went despite Celestia telling them they should not.

McCarthy didn't want Rainbow Dash to be important to the story, but she wanted Spike to be.

After CE this should've been expected. In CE they got shunted off to a meaningless side story that gets no resolution whatsoever and here they get replaced by Rainbow Dash Mk. II and the other Mk. IIs.

Previously, the mane6 would often be at odds with each other, thus none of them could really trust one another. Here; however, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, and Rarity all trust Applejack, and thus they should have been able to figure out Shimmer's plan on their own.

It seems like a copout. I find it jarring that Applejack just rudely tells her friends to shut up and move on.

It seems almost like a copout...AJ was written in character and with her maturity and low-temper is probably the hardest to irritate. It seems like they threw them all an idiot ball, to justify the need to have Twilight be the one who is best and making and keeping friendships, despite the evidence throughout the series and even in the movie that AJ could do just as good of a job.

Twilight didn't resolve things because she was experienced or talented, it's just the fact that she had an outside view, and that everyone except Spike is holding an idiot ball

Seems like they wound up getting fed up with each other and just chose not to stop talking with each other. Twilight caused them to get together and bicker long enough to find out they were being set up against each other.

Speaking of which, something interesting I remember reading was that the reasons they all got mad at each other was either because the Element they're associated with either seemed betrayed or used against their owner.

Applejack seemed like she lied about when the bake sale was.

Rainbow Dash seemed like she betrayed Applejack by not bringing the softball team to her bake sale.

Pinkie didn't seem to take things seriously by bringing fireworks and noisemakers to Fluttershy's silent auction.

Rarity wasn't generous by not helping to set up several school functions and leaving Pinkie to do all the work alone.

Pinkie doesn't explain what exactly Fluttershy did, but she mentions that Fluttershy's a real meanie and acts awful to her, which would contrast with Fluttershy's usual kindness.

I figured it must be just that - a humanized version of the pony world. Because it sure as hell ain't Earth. Appearance issues aside, nobody really behaves like humans I know in that movie. Their reactions are bizarrely subdued in certain situations, totally over the top in others.

Sonic Lost World!mXR.nLqpUY 28 Jun 2013 22:25:29 GMT No.2524718

I still feel the animation is pretty unimpressive, it's not so much that it is bad as it is that it didn't wow me like FiM did. I think part of it is just that it is clear DHX can get a lot more imaginative and original with creatures other than humans, and settings outside of modern western society. It's not that DHX did a bad job, but many of us have seen these things done before and better.

The other problem is that they try to make the human world seem familiar to us and pretty grounded in realism, but then use the same artstyle that was used to depict the fantasy wonderland that was Equestria. For me it has the unccanny valley effect, trying to depict a mostly normal high school with an artstyle designed for wacky gags, action setpieces, and a fantasy world.

I know I say I like the bright, vibrant colours and still do, but it just feels like overkill during crowd scenes where everyone is wearing attire as well. There is no shading, and usually not that much detail. It works in ponies because the characters were usually not wearing much, and to be honest the art direction was probably better back then than it is here.

I'll just say that it is bothersome as it seems like we're trying to see Canterlot High as a mostly normal world, but having wacky gags and supernatural elements be present throughout the movie makes it hard for us to do. The entire plot of Twilight and Spike trying to get the element of magic basically makes them and the audience apathetic towards the human world and its characters. They are never truly invested in the events of the world around them, they just HAVE to get involved with the Fall Formal because the plot says so.

I remember Lauren chose DHX partly because they're really good at animating four legged animals.

In fact, I think I remember reading one analysis about how animals in general were a lot easier to animate in flash than humans.

I kind of liked that scene because it established Luna could be seen as taking the role of underboss, handling disciplinary matters, in Equestrian society. This would explain her fairly severe attitude in comparison to Celestia. (Yes, I'm extrapolating across dimensions again.)

That said, it is really that infeasible to believe the scenario of the older generation being fooled by a shoop job - in this case an old fashioned shoop involving scissors and polariods - only to have a member of the younger generation step in and point out how it was a shoop? The only thing, "wat" about that was just how straightforward it was, but that does not make it less feasible, it just makes it unimpressive storytelling.

That's right Snips and Snails are lousy at masterminding anything, but it's actually implicitly mentioned in the movie when Sunset Shimmer simply tells Snips and Snails to dig up dirt on Twilight Sparkle the same way they did before. This suggests she allowed them to autonomously do the mudslinging. Later on, Sunset Shimmer gets mad at Snips and Snails for trashing the gym, as that would have undermined her own plans. The pictures of the gym getting trashed are combined with the pictures they took of Twilight Sparkle playing Soccer with hooman Dash to make the evidence.

I finally watched a decent camrip of EQG on YouTube. If anything, it was worse than I had feared. The beginning had its charms (and I liked Twilight's brief foray with horse bipedality at the very end), but the middle three-quarters of the film was a museum of fatal flaws -- an offhanded idiot plot; bad character design resulting in clumsy and amateurish-looking animation (especially of the human locomotor cycles); indistinguishable cardboard characters with no depth; gratuitous fan shout-outs; a preposterous denouement -- and music and dialogue and lyrics with less character than an oyster cracker. About all you can say for it is that it wasn't hideously embarrassing. C minus.

All this has been said and detailed on this board and elsewhere (especially on /mlp/, which has some really thoughtful commentary on its EQG threads), and I don't need to go on about it. But this movie did one important thing for me: it made me appreciate what a gorgeous little miracle the TV show has been. You always learn a lot by comparing dreck with good stuff. Compare, for example, the wooden, cut-out-looking animation and characterless bland faces of the human Mane Six with their Equestrian counterparts. The horsy bodies have style, weight, inertia, and presence; they move with sinuous grace when they need to and with rubbery cartoon-physics exaggeration when the situation calls for it. Their human equivalents can't do either without appearing distractingly sexualized at one extreme or grotesque at the other. As Chuck Jones and others have said, it's a lot easier to animate human-looking animals than human-looking humans. The MLP team knows how to do the former beautifully, but not the latter. The MLP characters are also more complicated, more grown-up, and subtler than the dull, colorless, unripe high-school nonentities that usurp their parts in EQG. Even the voice acting in EQG is flat and uninspired.

Let's learn from this debacle and move on.

I wasn't quite as judgmental, but I can't fault anything you're saying here.

It probably helps to go in with low expectations. I was expecting they were going to take Faust's awesome pony designs and temporarily subvert them in the name of creating a Monster High competitor. That expectation set, that they did not animate them at Disney quality was the least of my concerns.

How is that a fan shoutout, though? It's established there are human versions of the remaining members of the mane six, and Celestia and Luna, why shouldn't there be counterparts for their family and other major secondary characters?

Sounds about right to Dee, honestly I was disappointed there weren't more humanised ponies instead of those boring background humans we got, Dee wanted Bon-Bon face-palming at Lyra playing with her My Little Pony brushables in the cafeteria.

Precisely, the characters had nothing to do with the plot, and the roles could be filled by just about anyone, so why not have those bodies be Equestrian counterparts, honestly it would have seemed far stranger if Celestia, Luna, the secondary five, Snips, and Snails were the only humans to be counterparts for Equestrians.

Well, there was the Trixie scene that went nowhere, added nothing to the story, and served absolutely no purpose other than to force Trixie into the movie.

Same with the CMC at the library...what's the point? Their scene adds nothing to the plot. You could remove it from the movie and nothing would change about the rest of the movie.

I don't mind fanservice, but fanservice in the way of bringing the movie to a dead stop for 30 seconds to have a pointless scene focusing on an unimportant character(s), that's where it crosses the line and becomes annoying.

Eh, I'll give you the Trixie scene, but the CMC are still adorable even in human form and Dee is glad that scene was in it. Besides the way people keep talking about fan shout outs they make it sound like Pinkie was eating a rainbow cupcake while Applejack fucked Fluttershy in a tree costume and DJ H00-M4N battled Discord with her bass cannon. A pair of brief scenes of Trixie being Trixie and the Training Bra Troopers jamming in the library hardly seem worth complaining over, honestly that seems a bit nitpicky to me.

look, the cmc scene have a propose. it was tryied to be funny.
and for some that work...

but the kind of questionable was the trixie one. if her scene has no point into the plot, then it should be just an entretaining scene for his own...
but it really wasnt, there was no punch line or payback. so then that scene have no point.

dont know if it is supposed to be for the fans, or because they like it like that. remember trixie just reformed last season and probably could be more scenes with her in the future.

i dont complain about who appear or who dont... but just try to focus this thing to know what is a pointless scene and what isnt.

Humans have those "cutie marks" in clothes and accessories, if I'm not mistaken.

Considering the two masks thing is absent on the first screenshot, that is probably just a random pattern on the dress, and not actually intended to be the "cutie mark" on that human.

Orange hair and yellow skin are easily coincidences, or perhaps they designed this character around Carrot Top. Her hair isn't exactly "pinkie-ish" at all, though.

But eh, if you insist that your OC is canon only in EQG, go right ahead.

>Well, we kiiiinda have ourselves to blame for that, you know?
You don't see Nayuki claiming that Lyra and Bon Bon, Octavia, Berry Punch, are "secondary characters", though.

And really, Vinyl is nowhere near the level of Cheerilee or the Cakes. I honestly don't see how she comes anywhere close to being "secondary character" when she has a total of 9-10 seconds screentime over 3 seasons, and no lines at all.

Meghan made a tweet last week saying the scripts were locked in. She didn't specifically say they were the final scripts, but it would make sense since her tweet made her sound rather relieved (My two favorite words right now: “Locked Script”) and the writing has probably been worked on for over a year by now.

EquestriaGuy has been keeping track of the story boarding process through Sibsy's tweets, and has figured given their usual schedule, they should be on the last episode by now. The voice recording for each episode is done close to when story boarding for that episode is done, so if the story boarding is or is almost done, then the same could be said for the voice recording.

And there's still going to be months left to finish the animation and scoring. Not to mention when the episodes air is up to the channel, and they can wait as long as they plan to even if the episodes have been done for a while (like Disney with Gravity Falls).

So I don't really feel like taking the time to read this whole thread, but I saw it today. I liked it pretty well, but I didn't love it.

There were multiple jokes I laughed a lot at, for which I was glad. However, I wasn't a huge fan of the musical numbers. I didn't hate them, but I didn't really like them that much, either. I hope that's not the direction the music will go in season four, that will take away from the show quite a lot for me.

Overall I though it was good, not great (the music not being as great as I was hoping being my only real issue).

So, I mean.

Dee still doesn't get this. Trixie, Dərpy, and DJ H00-M4N are the only things Dee would really call fandom shoutouts, and of the three Trixie is the only one that actually took up any time they could have used for better purposes. Maybe the background human that looked somewhat like Tangerine Cookie, and that's assuming it wasn't coincidental.

for the reviews i have seen, they claim how ultra amazing the movie is...

which make me wonder in reallity what the hay was expecting the movie to be? some times they mention how worried they was about all this

at least to me it isnt as funny like people say it is, i mean, there was this guy, who was trying to describe the scene of trixie in front of the dispenser.... and he couldnt hold his laugh when he was trying to describe the scene....
wth, i get if he like the scene but not to the point where you cant barely speak because was so "funny"

in my case i almost got what i was expecting.... except because i thought flash sentry romance was going to be more subtle....

so i can get people liking it, but if they are so easily to amaze, why they had any preoccupation to begin with?

After watching the movie, It feels a lot easier to remain on Neutral ground with this. This is my opinion and I'm sure it's different from quite a few.

I don't see reason with all the fuss that was started over this, whether it be good or bad, and I was amused with it. The whole thing felt like a normal FiM two part episode, but with humans. I just know it'll be easier to remain neutral on Equestria Girls, and I did enjoy it.

Still would've rather had ponies as ponies in this movie. Didn't feel the same as a FiM episode and convinces me to ignore all future EqG content, whether its comics or a spinoff or another "movie".
Season 4 has a lot to do to keep me watching, so I sit here and hope the writers don't crash and burn after being tainted by the brony praise of EqG and S4 stays true to FiM roots.

I'm not sure exactly what he meant when he said more showings, but from the link it just looks like he's pointing out that for this one movie theater, they're playing EqG four times today and tomorrow each, while The Great Gatsby, which is over an hour longer than EqG, is only being played three times today and tomorrow each. Then after Tuesday, they both seem like they'll only be played three times a day.

I'm not sure what you were interpreting it as, considering we all knew EqG didn't get a wide release like The Great Gatsby, but a limited one in a few hundred theaters.

With the explanation of what it meant, it doesn't make sense to mention it. Considering I've expressed my immense love for Gatsby here in the past, it's almost as if the statement was placed just to piss me off; almost, I don't believe that was the intent because the world doesn't revolve around me.

OK, so whatever all you guys are complaining about, honestly, I LOVED this movie. I don't care what you think; because this is my opinion. I loved the humor, music, story, everything... Even if they were humans. So what? It's what Twilight had to do to get her crown. Just face it - they are just as cute as the ponies. I loved it so much I watched it three times in one day! I don't see what your problem is, but it's still quality in my eyes, and nopony can change that. y so critical? idk, but stop complaining and move on.

Alright, just watched the movie.

It was better than I expected!
...Is what I wish I could have said, instead, it was actually WORSE than I expected.

Though there are a few funny jokes here and there, and a moment near the end I was really getting into, this movie is VERY riddled with flaws. The mane six acted very stupid, just assuming the absolute worst of their friends whom they have been friends every since childhood (And completely discard the possibility of Sunset Shimmer being involved, even though they and everybody else knows she's bad news), until Twilight finally kicks their flankes into gear. Their characterization is kinda alright afterwards, though. But still nothing to write home about.
The plot is RIDICULOUSLY contrived, nothing feels natural, everything happens because it just has to happen, rather than a natural development. Special mention to Luna, who is a godamn moron. Snips and Snails are back and now I'm starting to understand why people hate them, but not as much as Sunset... fucking... Shimmer.
I FUCKING hated Sunset Shimmer, she was every single stereotype of the bully character all rolled in one annoying package, she was bratty, snobby, selfish, and really fucking obnoxious, every second she had on-screen. Hell. Every second her VOICE was heard was like torture, she is the absolute WORST villain of this series. YES, WORSE THAN SOMBRA AND NMM, AT LEAST THEY DIDN'T MAKE ME WANT TO COMMIT HOMICIDE. It's not even sactisfying to see her get her just desserts, she gets beaten in an even tamer way than NMM was, and of course, is immediately forgiven for all the shit she pulled.

And her plan is FUCKING RETARDED too. Her plan is to use the Element of Magic (elements of Harmony work differently in this universe for some stupid reason) to gain power, enslave the school, and march into Equestria, conquering everything.

...Alright.

1. The only reason why she can do this is because in this world, magic works differently... In other words, it should be utterly useless once she crossed the portal, she should just turn back into a normal, non-powered pony and get her flank beaten.

2. EVEN IF this movie decided to say fuck it to it's own rules (I mean, why wouldn't it...), there's a slight little problem.... by her own admission, her army is composed of TEENAGER ZOMBIES. OF ONE HIGH SCHOOL.
Need I remind you, Equestria has a military force, two individuals of immense power, several highly powerful spellcasters, and a fucking dimensional shifter who probably would have something to say about that, while Sunset is probably powerful in her own right, I doubt she can stand her own against both Celestia and Luna. And it's not like she planned to prepare or anything, I doubt somebody as impatient as her would wait 2,5 years to return to Equestria, so she would just march in with her army of zombie, untrained, few teenagers and obviously, get her flank handed to her. Twilight didn't even need to resist giving her the crown, she could just have given it to her and said "there, go to Equestria, I fucking dare you to take it over."

All in all, this movie gets a 2.5/10 from me, it's horrible, and the only reason why it doesn't get a zero is because Spike is great in it, he plays off Twilight very well, and he should be like that in Season 4.

I give the movie 3 out of 4 stars or if you like scales of ten, that would translate to 7.5 out of 10. I enjoyed it, it wasn't great and there were some really dumb plot moments but the actual series is like that too and always has been (episode 2 of season 2 has the worst and stupidest fucking climax ever) so I can definitely overlook the flaws this movie had and really enjoyed it.

See, you're doing it again.

Having a negative opinion is not "complaining". If people are voicing their negative opinions and actually giving reasons why, then it is not really "complaining".

Like...

Complaining: I hated the songs in Equestria Girls they were so stupid and I hated them!

Negative opinion: I didn't like the songs in Equestria Girls. I don't really like tween-pop to begin with, and all four of the songs sounded the same.

See the difference?

while she just stop going "uh, the critical are so aggressive grumpy wet party", lets just ignore it.

she can go, and claim how amazing that thing is.

we take it personal because it look like is saying how ever didnt like it are a bunch of idiots. just like all the pictures about how dumb the fanbase sound when an "apocalypses" comes.

they look like they are saying "hey, you think this is dumb? well, you are an idiot" while in reality they are making fun of those who take it further and are really extremist.

now, in my personal taste, i hope the new season dont relay on being as cheap to solve the problems and move the story like this movie does.....

oh wait, but like im being critical about the future by taking my experience with season 3, i should be pointed out like a cancer for the once who like the show and LAUGH FULL LUNG while human trixie just stand and say "IM THE GREAT AND POWERFUL TRIXIE"

This has nothing to do with "letting her enjoy the damn thing", I'm pointing out to her that it's kinda not good to make blanket statements, calling everyone who didn't like it "whiners" and "complainers"; pointing out that there's a difference between disliking and complaining.

So guys, compare the ending of the movie to the end of episode 2. Twilight makes new friends and discovers the unbreakable bond she has with them. While in the pilot she hated the idea of returning and was allowed to abandon everything she knew in Canterlot to stay with her new friends, in the movie she just gives a heartfelt goodbye. She'd done no less with the human friends than she'd done with the mane 5 by the end of the pilot. And this is after showing she was willing to stay for another 30 moons, so it wasn't because Equestria needed her.

Does anyone else feel this is kinda... horrible? Imagine if at the end of the pilot Twilight was just like "I'm fine leaving you new friends because I have friends exactly like you back home!"

Her stay there was always temporary if she had the choice. Plus, she could live in Ponyville but still stay in touch with Celestia and her family, even visit whenever she wanted to, and it was still the world she grew up in. In EqG, staying there would've cut herself off from everyone she knew and loved in Equestria for a long time, without any notice about her condition.

>>2524900
It's the details when trying to add in the rule that Ponyville and Canterlot would be cut off for a couple of years. For instance, where would the Everfree Forest be, in the Canterlot world or Ponyville world? The answer would also factor into which world the Elements, Celestia, and Luna/NMM came from. If Ponyville, why did Celestia move from the Ponyville world to go to Canterlot? If Canterlot, why are they bothering with celebrating the sun in a completely different world? What's the reasoning for Twilight to go get sent to meet her friends? Is NMM after one world or both? It'd have to be one since they would be eventually cut off, so which one would she go for?

It's stuff like that which makes it hard for me to wrap my head around the story idea.

I would think that the choice in that case, like EqG, would be to also have her say goodbye to her new friends, just because again, it wouldn't be just moving away but still being close enough to keep in contact with those you know and your old home, it's being completely shut off from those you know and your world for some time.

Alright, so pretend Twilight was given the options to stay in Ponyville and report on her discoveries of friendship back to Celestia when they meet again in 2.5 years, or return to Canterlot to resume her studies directly while leaving her best friends. And just say everything that happened in Canterlot happened near Ponyville it's not that hard dude.

Probably still stay in Canterlot and let her Ponyville friends be the ones she meets every couple of years. She could still study friendship outside of Ponyville, plus there should still be some feedback between the student and teacher, and not just about friendship. Not to mention, it still involves dropping everything from the world you know and being completely cut off for years to start anew in this completely new world.

Actually, I just made a new headcanon for this movie.

It was all a plan from Celestia.

Sunset Shimmer doesn't resent Celestia or Twilight at all, in fact, she is Celestia's scout for the human world, who is studying how humans work and their ways, and actually has a good relationship with her and everybody else in the human world, who were also all in on the plan, everybody was acting and pretending Sunset Shimmer to be this big villain and meanie, but all truly look up to her as a person. That is why her plan made little to no sense, or why there were so many plot holes.
The portal closing for 30 moons? Bullcrap, that was just an incentive for Twilight to return quickly. And why would Celestia want to keep her student away for a while? Well, not only to make her come to terms with her title as a Princess, but also to keep her away while the rest of the cast prepare her surprise birthday party, of course.

Yeah, I'll go with that, I suddenly like this movie a whole lot more right now.

I'm too lazy right now to write everything down, but I want to share some point I found really good in this movie.

Characterization is great, as it is expected from Meghan (who is my favorite writers). Pinkie Pie was stellar here, maybe the best characterization ever.

Looks like I'm in same boat with Sunset Shimmer as I am with King Sombra: many don't like them, but I really like. There are some key scenes why I think Sunset Shimmer is a good villain and have potential to be a great character. First key scene is at the beginning, where she steals the tiara. She had replicate of the tiara and when that lamp fall down, she manage to catch it. She clearly had though about this and she is fast thinker for catching that lamp. She is more subtle than some villain who's first plan is to take the tiara and run away.

Second key scene is when talk with Twilight about taking the Element to different world. It's looks like she have some idea what it will do (it doesn't work the same way as in Equestria). For me this looks like she have planned all this for a long time. We get to see that she have been the princess of the dance 3 times, so it's likely that she have prepared something just as long.

Third key scene was transformation scene. When she was transforming into a demon, she cried. She isn't evil, even though she is a flankhole. She wanted the power from the Elements, but not that way.

I also really like the way she manipulate everybody. She remind me of one major villian in awesome manga Liar Game. Basically Sunset Shimmer use indirect ways to bully and create mistrust between friends with lies. She uses Internet, photoshop and text messages, making it rather believable and relevant to our reality. Keep in mind than Discord used lies an magic to break bonds between mane 6, but all Sunset Shimmer needed was lies to do the same thing. In my opinion, Sunset Shimmer is more intelligent villain than Discord.

Another thing I really liked was Celestia after Twilight came back. First thing she asked was about Sunset Shimmer! Even after everything Sunset Shimmer caused and Celestia not being her mentor anymore, Celestia is still concerned of her former student.

It's... Alright, I guess... Didn't really pay much attention to her, since she acted nothing like the Celestia I know and love. Though in her position, she probably does have the right to be more cold and annoyed than the regular Celestia.

Do you know what? I freaking love that fact! Keep in mind that even if basic personality is same as Celestia in Equestria, she is WAY younger. She is probably 30-40 there, while Celestia in Equestria is over 1000 years old, having ruled most of time whole nation. If Meghan had wrote principle Celestia same way as princess Celestia, I would had big problem with it. We got to see what kind of Celestia probably was when she was young. She was colder, so in other words in her thousand year life she have learned and grown to her todays character. I find it absolutely intriguing to find out what had made principle Celestia to princess Celestia we all know. I'm freaking excited to see this character development either in actual show or in fanfics.

Okay, at this point you're just grasping at straws.

"Alicorn" is confirmed to mean "winged unicorn" within FIM. Yet somehow it's "headcanon" to state that an amulet depicting a winged unicorn, named "ALICORN Amulet" is not referring to winged unicorns?

What do you mean "makes less sense" ? All of the alicorns seen thus far in the show were really powerful. I don't see how it's nonsensical to have a power-granting amulet named after them.

But still, why would an amulet depict a winged unicorn, and be named after the term for winged unicorns, but it actually has nothing to do with winged unicorns? That's what really "makes less sense", here.

Your theory is based off of how it looks, and my theory is based on what it does. We might as well argue over whether it's better to call it the "black and red amulet" or the "super evil magic amulet". That sounds like a more fun argument anyway.

Yep, it has nothing to do with alicorns, despite being named ALICORN amulet, and depicting an alicorn. Makes sense.

>based on what it does
And "what it does" is grant immense magical power, much like an ALICORN's. I'm not basing it completely off of looks.

And on top of all of this: It's magic. It doesn't have to make perfect sense.

Really, you're just coming off as desperate at this point. Canon disproved your theory. You were wrong. Happens to all of us. Move on.

The funny thing would be if it turned out that the reason the alicorn Amulet corrupted ponies was that Ponies wearing it would "Unbalance" themselves by Only drawing on A singular races power from it instead of All three races like an alicorn has.

Basically, that Trixie could have Drawn pegasi and Earth pony magic, but being that she didn't even REALIZE she could draw other magic than unicorn magic from it, and the Disharmony of Supercharging one aspect intead of all three like a normal alicorn has causes the mental issues.

This "Twilight x Brad, U Currently Experiencing The Emotion Of Anger?" would almost be an effective parasprite if it wasn't:

Well, they were full-up polymorphed into hoomans at the time, so it's not that hard to buy that their sex drive followed.

Plus, Brad Sentry is apparently big mojo on campus, he's sort being dangled as the prize. That's a gender reversal from the usual rescueing-comely-damsel-in-distress formula, but one not at all uncommon in high school girl-protagonist movies or even Cinderella, which Equestria Girls has some resemblances to.

I don't think hands are supposed to actually exist, and earlier uses of it have just been slips. Using the phases "getting out of hand" or "on the other hand" without replacing them with hoof, similar to how they occasionally use anybody instead of anypony, or say things like bullets or tanks exist.

If his feet can be called that, then his hands could probably be called that too.

Well, spike's "claws" work like hands, and monkeys are confirmed to exist within Equestria and they have hands as well. Also, Iron Will, yeah.

With so many instances of hands existing, it's just a bit odd that they'd have Twilight flip out and not know what they are, and then later, blatantly make a "What are hands?" joke.

you know what will be funny?

lyra saying "what are hands?"
that will break the heart of a ton of people, while at the same time is referencing the fandom version.

just like extra info, im not ultra fan human lover lyra, but i find some times pictures funny. i prefer her just to do things in weird ways... the human way... but with out acknowledging it.

In other news, it's really easy to rustle brodles over on EQD, all you have to do is comment on their 9/10 scores of Equestria Girls. Instant flame war.

Pretty much, yeah. Negative opinions are frowned upon at EQD, and people will label you a "hater/whiner/complainer" if you don't like something.

Actually, that does sound good, although I don't know how they would have fit that scene in. And I agree that it'd be funnier if people were more subtle about it.

I finally saw it today. It was "Meh" to me at best, facepalmingly horrifying at worst. Sunset Shimmer's Human Form was pretty good looking, but everyone else ranged from meh to mega-crap as far as humanized looks go. Also, Sunset Shimmer's plan made no sense from the beginning. Rather than stay in Equestria and steal the other elements, she goes back into the alternate world for no reason. It's like this show has trouble writing good villains.

>Remembers that this MLP and villains are supposed to be total pansies

Nevermind.

And Flash Sentry couldn't be anymore one-dimensional. Seriously, nobody cares about him. I'll stick with my Twixie ship, thank you very much.

I haven't seen very many people saying that they're going to buy them. Even on EQD, where everyone was raving about how epic and amazing EQG was.

And I enjoyed it like a bottle of piss given to a man who has spent 3 days without water in a desert.

Well, maybe Equestia Girls wasn't piss bad. Hasbro once again owes Studio B/THX Media a debt for being able to take a terrible idea and spin it into something tolerable. This whole idea of turning My Little Pony into a Monster High competitor was a whole bag of WTF. If they can take that and produce something that causes me to say, "Well, that was a satisfactory episode of pony of epic length," that's a major achievement of ace talent.

Indeed. Hopefully we'll get some S4 clips to argue about at SDCC like we did for S3...but then again, I'm not sure if they're that far along in animation that they'll be able to show us anything.

>>2525011
Mm. "Tolerable" is just about right. Not entirely bad, but I'm still disappointed at the huge amount of wasted potential.

Fuck yes. It was nice to see EQG stay true to the message of friendship and positivity, while breaking expectations over where it was "supposed" to go. The songs were good to great, and it started Princess Twi off on a strong footing.

Amazing as it is, some people will claim to see things which aren't there, claiming everything that comes out of a franchise is the physical emboidement of things good and beautiful, regardless of how crazy that makes them look even after being pointed it out.

Just look at trekkies and all the crap they praise, or look at some at this very board.

Someone out there always likes something which can unquestionably be called bad simply for its source, so don't be surprised.

Opinions are funny like that.

I can see why people would enjoy the movie, and i would probably enjoy it myself if i didnt appreciate a well put together story over pure entertainment value.

EQG delivered the latter quite well, as the catchy songs and the animation quality could attest to, in addition to the jokes that quite a lot of people who disliked the movie as a whole can say they laughed at.

EQG did not deliver the former..well, pretty much at all.

Almost every situation comes about because the plot demanded it.

>How does Sunset Shimmer know about Twilight if she's not been back to equestria since she left.

>How does she know what an element of harmony would do in the human world.

>Twilight slept in the library, how did the librarian, who was already pissed off with her, miss that.

>How the hell is human-luna the vice-principal if she's so damn retarded.

>"Hey, you're a bitch who broke apart ours and presumably hundreds of other friendships in this school over the years to establish easily controlled cliques that you ruled over with iron fist. We should totally be friends because you didnt know that was a bad thing."

The climax of the film is meant to contain at least some explanation for things, but all it does (for me at any rate) is make certain questions extremely glaring.

>Element of harmony + person who's not meant to use it = a monster.
Okay, did shimmer know that would happen or did she just think she'd gain the magical power?
She knew something would happen, but whether that was just "having access to her magic+ a boost" or something is confusing.
Especially since the tears during her transformation sequence indicate that it was really fucking painful or something.

Personally, i would have liked the rest of the mane5 to come charging through the mirror wearing their elements (And looking like their pony selves because of it or some crap.) and blocking the death blast instead of the others.
Then you have the whole transformation sequence with Twilight on her own followed by the defeat of shimmer and everybody's counterparts going "WTF" at each other / Rarity in particular fangasming over all the clothes / FlutterHuman fangasming over the magical talking equines.
Bonus points if they do it in synch, with their counterparts apologizing for the other.

The mane5 come charging through because they saw what was happening through the mirror, which is something you would kind of expect from a magical mirror that's a portal to another world.
