Re: My Little Pony News

I'm kind of annoyed that Rainbow Dash, AJ, and Fluttershy are all wearing short skirts. AJ works on a farm, Fluttershy works with animals, and Rainbow Dash is highly athletic. Plus it seems OOC for Applejack and Fluttershy to wear skirts that short, Fluttershy because a skirt that short would net her a lot of stares, and AJ because she works on a farm.

For that matter, I know they're trying to keep the manes + tails aesthetic, but what's a speedster/athlete doing with hair that goes down to her ankles? Or a girl that works on a farm and (probably) around heavy machinery? Or someone who cooks for a living?

And what's with those weird cheek cutie mark tattoo things? They look ugly. They might have been better if they were smaller and more subtle but... the marks are already on their clothing, and it isn't like we're going to see them out of it on a kids' cartoon. Why bother?

At least the poses are in-character. At this point, the only thing that can save it is good writing. Do we have any clues on that?

The fuck do you think? This was made on a hasbro initiative. None of the voice actresses we care about sofar. Different animation studio. No Lauren bringing it all together.

This is gonna be the tween version of Gen 3. You fucking watch.

Eh. I want to give it a chance, mostly because it seems a tad hypocritical for fans of My Little Pony to judge a show as "girly crap" before they've seen a minute of it. The designs have changed from what we saw before, they might change again. The show might end up being really awesome. Like everything else this fandom freaks out over, we're gonna have to wait and see.

I never said girly crap. I said tween gen 3 crap. That's a criticism on the writing.

But it's not going to be the group that's doing MLP: FIM. So we can't say "they've been doing great with this show!" Because it will be, good or bad, an entirely new animal.

No, I meant "girly crap" as a general stand-in for all the various negative comments that this new show has been getting, not that you'd specifically said it. Sorry, I should have been clearer.

Yeah, but my point isn't that we can look at FiM and say Equestrian Girls, or whatever, is going to be of the same caliber. My point is just that we can't be sure of its quality, or lack thereof, on any point until the actual first episode airs. The same way absolutely no one looked at MLP:FiM when it was in production (to my knowledge) and went: "Man, this sure is gonna be popular with the 18-49 crowd!"
