Reminder that just a bit over four years ago the ANG movie was releases

I watched it for the first time a year or so ago and I don't think I'd ever watch it again. It's not bad, it's just not good either. It's exactly what you'd expect when I say the words 'direct-to-Netflix My Little Pony movie'.

>>42784755 (OP)
Not so new now, is it?

>>42784778
It had some potential, as seen from the production material, but of course none of that is ever realized when people are working for the extreme consequence of a capitalistic system. No good can ever come from Hasbro, but at least the G5 ponies are pretty cute when looking at them in isolation.

>>42784791
Still the newest one

>>42784755 (OP)
Ironically, I feel like if they gave us more time before releasing G5, we would have liked it more. As more distance from G4s end is gained, I can see that the desire to accept G5 was damaged. G5 has grown on me. Not crazy about it. But it's pony.

>>42784791
It wasn't then either all of its arbitrary woke social commentaries were decades out of date by the time it premiered

>>42785619
>But it's pony.
It truly is not

>>42785660
Izzy makes a snarky comment about power dynamics, that's pretty definitively 2017 Twitter stuff.

>>42785687
Yeah that was the cringiest part of the movie.

>>42785619
The inclusion of G4 lore was one of the worst decisions lore-wise. I think even almost every G5 fan agrees with that.

>>42785687
I remember it was such a nothing burger that schizos latched onto, when Izzy never brought anything close it again.

>>42786257
Well yeah there's no actual political message beyond 'we need to come together y'all!! no more listening to hate!!', it's just a reminder among many that it was written in the late 2010s which happens to be aging like milk.

>>42784755 (OP)
The political message is so blatant when I tried to watch it again. It's a shame because I enjoy the animation and some of the cute moments.
>yeah bro, just let all of these different ponies into your land. The rumors are all wrong and they're actually nice and stuff.

No bait here.

if you think g5 is pony you have an empty cavity where your brain should be :p

>four years ago
That long, huh? Still haven't seen it.
And still don't plan to either.

I'd rather watch Rainbow Roadtrip instead this mid-movie desu.

>>42787275
I'd rather watch this mid-movie than the garbage that was the G4 movie

>>42787275
You are trying too hard

>>42787275
I think Posey would like Hope Hollow.

>>42787975
Is it an Earth pony village?

>>42788738
No, it's just a cozy small town with a pro-flower policy (after they got their hope back anyway).

As long as it's away from Izzy it can be her own little paradise.

this, what the actual FUCK is going on with time? to put that in perspective that's the same gap as 2012 to 2016.

>Our perception of days, weeks, years and that kind of time seems to be especially influenced by our perspective
>the perception of time is also influenced by memory and how much you’ve experienced.
>For an 8-year-old, a week is a big portion of their life.
>For an 80-year-old, a week is a much smaller portion of their life, which contributes to the feeling that it went by quickly.
>For the 80-year-old, their life probably doesn’t look too different than it did when they were 78 or 79, so, in that case, they’re looking back on fewer events
>When you’re looking back, the less rich your representation is, the more it’s going to seem like the time went by quickly.
>In other words, our brains lump time together when the days or weeks are similar.
>So for an 80-year-old who largely does the same thing every day, the year is going to blend together in their mind and feel like it went by quickly.
The more samey your days are, the less your brain will care to remember. Your time shitposting on /mlp/ every day is taking your perception of time away from your life and you will just wake up aged faster than you remember, piling regret that you didn't do something else.

I remember last year, I started watching a new movie I hadn't seen before every week/2 weeks, as well as playing through a whole game every month. I fell off on doing it about halfway through the year, but it did make the first half of 2024 feel slow as fuck for me.

Why is the movie so darn good?

>>42791655
Because it was comfykino like BGE.
The first scene with sunny sending off the lantern and then izzy pulling it out at the campfire was absolute cinema.
Even they shoved in random real world expies nobody remembers or cares about that. It's all about the snowpity.
