About Lauren Faust

You know, I love Lauren Faust and all. She did a great job of giving the show it's first breath of life and creating the world and characters, but one thing grinds my gears:

 

I can't stand the people that kiss up to her to the extent of disrespecting the show's current staff and make it seem like everything without her direct hand in it is automatically garbage.

Pretty much, yeah. I can't stand people like that either.

 

To be honest, Faust's episodes were rather mixed, like some were great while others were merely okay at best. While I do appreciate how she gave the IP life again, she isn't the single greatest writer the show ever had and all the other writers are pure garbage and other shit like that.

Don't forget the Bronies that bash feminists at every chance they get, but not even realize Faust herself is a feminist, and Tara Strong, and pretty much 60% of the production staff.

I think the issue with that as a whole, is that the "radical feminists"(like the people running Miss Magazine) make the movement as a whole look really bad and people forget that the majority don't act like that.

I have never liked that either, it is extremely disrespectful to all of the other staff of the show that have contributed to making this a great show. Lauren Faust contributed greatly but so did many others and they are so far continuing to make this a great show.

Lauren was awesome in getting the show going. Season 3 was the current staff's first go without her creative genius at the helm and it was subpar. I think that's where a lot of the kissing up to Faust comes from. But the current staff is seriously starting to prove themselves this season. The openers? Awesome. Castle Mania? Great. The last Bats and Manehattan? Loved them! They've done really well this season. I think a lot of the people who say they're underwhelmed by this season are being a whole lot like the genwunners in the Pokemon fanbase. I just wanna say, "Shut up and enjoy the frickin show!"

Actually, she created the concepts and wrote three episodes in season 1 and that was it. She was only a consultant in season 2.

@@Shoboni, She WROTE the first three episodes (Ticket Master with AKR), but she was heavily involved in the first half of Season 2 and scaled back once it hit the halfway point. Faust really contributed to episodes like The Return of Harmony, Lesson Zero (presumably), Luna Eclipsed, and Hearth's Warming Eve.

Yes, but the three she wrote were'd really that special, They weren't the worst by any means, but not the best either.

 

The point I'm trying to make here, is she proved much better with character/world design and concepts than actual episode writing with this show.

Yeah I agree even though I think she is the better show runner the show is still good. And the funny thing is, the episodes that Faust actually wrote weren't exactly masterpieces.

You fucking heretic. You WILL worship the Great Lord Faust or you will burn in the fiery pits of Tartarus!

 

Sorry, she has to wait in line. I'm pretty sure I already gave my soul Hideo Kojima long ago.
