Why do people say the My Little Pony Movie is bad? It's pretty good in comparison to S8 and S9.
>>43208859>It's pretty good

>>43208865who?
>>43208859>It's pretty good in comparison to S8 and S9That doesn't in any way stop it from being bad.
>>43208886But it's better than nothing, right?
>>43208890I guess unlike shit like s9 or EQG, I'd rather this movie exists than not. It's still pretty crap though.
there's nothing wrong with eqg

>>43208859A kick to the nuts is good compared to seasons 8 and 9
>good guy team is so incredibly fucking stacked at this point that villains should pose zero threat>princesses get insta-KO'd by some unexplained bullshit and discord is just not there>no sign of royal guard during invasion>mane 6 do nothing>mane 6 are OOC scared little fillies cowering at the slightest thing>twilight is character assassinated and loses faith in her friends yet again (her outburst at pinkie is literally painful to watch)>new furry characters suck, never seen again>random sea pony advert in the middle of the film accomplishes nothing>tempest is cool as fuck but severely underdeveloped>twilight is imprisoned somehow when she can teleport>green petrification gas never explained>magic resistant metal never explained>staff of whatever never explained>mane 6 just run away by themselves and leaves their new friends at tempest's mercy>tempest literally kills the furries but they somehow survive and wash up on the beach anyway>furries and mane 6 make it all the way back to canterlot off-screen without a balloon or airship>tempest sees mane 6 hug one time and suddenly believes in friendship again>no reason why they couldn't repair her horn before returning the magic to the princesses>her "friends" in the flashback were literally just assholes?>none of the new locations are ever seen again despite stated goal of film being to expand the setting for the next season of the showthe film has to balance advertising a new toyline, expanding the world, being a road trip, two new villains, re-explaining everything for normies who haven't seen the show, it's too much for too little runtime. they should have focused on something but they didn't.tempest is the star of the show, but she has way too little screen time and her backstory and redemption is so half-baked and rushed it falls completely flat.
>>43209029Say it louder for those hoofcucks in the back!!!
>>43209614I like how AJ is the only one that looks normal
>>43209614Translation:"I'm proud of being a homosexual brownoid with double digit IQ"
>>43208859It's just good honestly. People will bitch about anything. Probably because they were flanderised. As if that makes the whole thing bad.
>>43210744>Retarded take>GlimmerflagNothing new under the sun.
>>43209573I agree with most of points besides Tempest.She sucked, I won't be gaslighted into think that losing your friends justifies being tempted into supporting a slaver tyrant.It is just as stupid of a backstory as Starlight had of starting an authoritarian cult because of her friend moving to another city.
>>43208859Because it's shit. Half the mane six don't actually do anything and have no role in the film, everyone acts out of character, obligatory pop culture references and comic relief ruining any tension, anything actually interesting got cut from the script by corporate, princesses job to some retard kicking magic balls, no royal guard, Pinkie being a spastic retard that ruins everything the entire movie yet everyone takes her side the second she gets any flak whatsoever for it. It's shit. It's all shit.
>find movie discussion from 2017-2019 in the archive>meh to ok>movie discussion today>IT'S SHIT REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEYeah, totally organic and realistic.
>>43210808Deciding it's actually quite bad after having seen it more than once or twice in 9 years doesn't make a negative opinion on it "artificial and inorganic", schizo-chan.
>>43208859>There are people who actually like CapperGrim.
>>43210766The idea of her is great, design is great, voicework is amazing. Her on-screen presence is perfect.I did say her backstory and redemption were way too half baked. That's the problem with her. But what can you do when all you have is a 20 second flashback in the middle of her villain song? So she should have had more screen time, maybe cut some of the other bullshit to do it.
>>43210808I rewarch the entire show, all movies, mist of the generations previous, all specials, Pony Life, G5, EQG, and most of the online shorts, every year for the anni. I've done this repeatedly since 2014. I can solidly say that for 99% of content released for mlp, it can be labeled as 'okay' People let their hype die, other opinions influence them, and become jaded. Then they spend their time spreading that jaded feeling because they dont want to be alone in it. Which is cringe. But some people just enjoy thjngs for what they are and enjoy the times they have. They know the work that goes into all this content and even if they dont love it all, they appreciate its existance. And thats based.
>>43210901>Her on-screen presence is perfectHer presence on screen was forgettable. Being more of a "I'm gonna do something really bad now, and this time is for real" but said event never happens, I may like a bit more if they haven't bothered with the backstory at all. Instead of wasting time with another song that's basically "Psycho justifies their shitty behavior by playing the victim card", they could've done something different, maybe she represents an abstract concept, or maybe we never truly learn what's her problem.I actually prefer the Storm King, he might a moron but he actually has some personality, I wish HE has been redeemed instead.
>>43208859Hey OP, want a punch to the face? It's pretty good in comparision to being shot in the head.
>>43211287tasteless, soullesscan't be helped
>>43208859I still remember hearing the announcement around September of 2014 and being excited for it yet annoyed about having to wait three years for it.In 2015, I "left" the ride (sort to speak) because of a sense of aimlessness with the main show. Sure, I was curious about the 100th episode as well but it also felt that things wouldn't be the same after Twilicorn and Season 4.I finally watched it in 2022 and... it was disappointing.The story had various inconsistencies, the characters acted very stupid at times, the humor was bland, the visuals were too Disney-esque for my taste and it was overall an unpleasant experience.It was still better than season 6 and beyond, but you can clearly tell the nu-staff had quite the hands on the project at times.Pony Life and the first G5 movie are more entertaining than this movie and I'm not kidding, and I don't think either of those are good but they were at least better at holding my attention than this movie.
>>43211307I saw someone in a thread a few days ago say that when mccarthy and thiessen left to do the movie, the show quality came back up and as soon as they were back from the movie it nosedived againtimeline seems to match up
>>43211305I'm not the type of person who praises anything pony just because it's pony. It wasn't the ponies that got me hooked, it was people like Larson, Faust, Morrow and other who got me.Those people are the reason why something like DC Superhero Girls (2019) beats the crap out of Equestria Girls at being a humanized MLP, regardless if that was the intention.
>>43211323>when mccarthy and thiessen left to do the movie, the show quality came back upThe show went to crap in season 6 when McCarthy and Thiessen left to do the movie and Haber was assigned as story editor.>as soon as they were back from the movie it nosedived againIt took a nosedive because Haber got promoted to produced while still retaining an active role as a writer.People like McCarthy and Thiessen were the reason why MLP was good, they left to do the movie and everything went wrong because they left a bunch of unexperienced manchilds to do the work.
>>43211287>I wish HE has been redeemed instead.Silly anon, don't you know all the ponies consider the uglier people to be villains? That's why the changelings stop being black when they're the good guys!
I liked it
>>43211325And I'm not either. But tempest is objectively badass and she could have been a top tier villain if given more development and a less lame backstory. Out of all the bullshit in the movie she stands out as something special.I love the little running gag where she does NOT like to be touched.
>>43208859The FIM movie was flawed but its was fun to watch the climax of the movie is the best part in my opinion I liked the characters it's a shame the had little screen time I mean just look at this hot birb pirate for some reason some fans thought she was a griffon for some reason . And season 8 and 9 is also good at least better than G% standards
>>43211374>still mindbroken about G5
G5 movie is better than anything past season 5
>>43211395Fuck you, I hate agreeing with this. FUCK you.
>>43211396how about a kiss to make you feel better?
>>43211406Make it Izzy and I'll feel better.
>>43211430muah!
>>43211373Understandable. At the very least we can agree she needed some more time.
>>43211395I would not anything (Sounds of Silence exist), but it is better than many things past season 5.When the bar is Haber, mid is a blessing.
>>43211457>>43211395G% movie and the series are bad
>>43208859it was nice to look at but just kinda followed the generic disney film playbook. it didn't really feel like MLP outside of starring the M6
>>43208859>Why do people say getting kicked in the nuts is bad? It's pretty good in comparison to watching someone shoot your friend in the face.
>>43208859Because the movie is too based.
>>43211943the series are bad, but the movie is mostly there. The writing is quite flawed and the art style is generic, but I can at least watch it without wanting to take my eyes out.
