I think the crown had an arrangement to get domain over the library in exchange for some financial funds since Ponyville was struggling with funds as The Last Roundup suggests.

A remake of the pilot with these additions. Include an expansion of Twilight's time in Canterlot before going to Ponyville with Moondancer's reaction when getting dissed by Twilight Sparkle. Keep Twilight meeting the Mane 5 but also include introducing a few other characters she comes across. Nightmare Moon gets a song number in when she appears in front of the ponies before leaving. A major rework needed would be the time between the Nightmare Moon appears to being confronted at the castle of the two sisters with the elements of harmony. Something as to why Nightmare Moon just throws these obstacles in their way rather than confront them and blast them.

Pinkie Pie: Why won't you eat my pie?! Rainbow Dash: Fine, I'll come clean. I don't eat your pies because I found your hair in it. *Other ponies*: *Disgusted and spitting out Pinkie's pies.* Pinkie Pie: No. No. No. That's a lie. *Hairs fall out.* Rarity: Applejack, I asked you for an honest opinion. Not your damn world view. Rainbow Dash: Pinkie Pie doesn't want to have anything more to do with me. Twilight Sparkle: I'm sure you two can.... Rainbow Dash: I'm free! *Flies away.* Applejack: Lucky flying..... Twilight Sparkle: Applejack. Applejack: I mean poor Pinkie. Princess Luna: Hello Rockhoof, I am the princess of the night and a huge fan. Rockhoof: It's good to meet you princess. Princess Luna: Just let me know if you want the sweetest of dreams tonight, I can make it happen. *Wink.*

Twilight Sparkle: So we found Photo Finish to convince her to take some pictures of you. Rarity: I'm assuming she refused and one of you threatened her. Applejack: How did you know? Rarity: It's not the first time Applejack chased somepony with a rope. Fluttershy: Zecora, I'm so sorry that you got sick because of me. Zecora: You should be. You spoil those infested critters making them want things. Rainbow Dash: As they say, a little collateral damage doesn't hurt any pony. Pinkie Pie: Who says that? Rainbow Dash: Me, because it never cost me one bit. Rainbow Dash: Daring Do, you can't retire. I'll do anything. I'll even confirm the shipping between Daring Do and Rainbow Dash. *Heads up stairs.* Daring Do: Where are you going? Rainbow Dash: Go easy.

There is a precedent, some of the Mane 6 got away with massive mistakes that wasn't addressed with consequences within the episodes.

I like Angry Fluttershy in FIM, for G5 I would like to see that voice actress play a hot-headed unicorn that uses magic against those that cross her. A character that is easily triggered and has to work on anger management.

The alternative universe story of this would start at the point where instead of Pear Butter choosing to stay with the Apple Family, Bright Mac makes the decision to leave the Apple Family to travel with Pear family to Vanhoover. Big Mac, Pearjack (Applejack), and Pearbloom (Applebloom) would have pear theme cutie marks. Bright Mac and Pear Butter are still alive.

Granny Smith: What are you talking about, married?! You two can't be married! Grand Pear: Finally, something I can agree on with that crazy apple. Pear Butter, enough of this nonsense. We're movin' into space! And you gotta be onboard with your family! Pear Butter: But... the Apples are my family now, too. Grand Pear: You can't be serious. Are you choosin' to plant yourself here as an Apple over being a space Pear?! Pear Butter: Are you makin' me choose? Grand Pear: Yes. I am. Pear Butter: Then yeah. I guess I am. Grand Pear: Fine! Scotty, beam me up. *Teleported away.* Pear Butter: [sobbing] Apple Bloom: Then you came here because you're sorry and that you wanted to get to know us, too? Grand Pear: I'm... so sorry. I-I-I was just so angry, and... well, life in space was so empty no matter how many non-pony alien babes I've come across in my travels in space. Apple Bloom: It's in the past, Grand Pear. Oh! Can I call you Grand Pear-Pear? Grand Pear: [chuckles] Sure can. Princess Celestia: All you do is give ponies lovely dreams so they don't have to pay for therapy.

Since Celestia and Luna don't have to deal with the complex impact of their raising the sun/moon on the entire planet, I'm sorta of thinking that the sun and moon they manipulate with magic could be artificial created. How much of this "daylight" and "nighttime" is just magic?

Most of the background ponies are individualistic, it's just when the show focuses on an individuality of a character is when it can go in a negative light. Too ambitious, too greedy, not properly able to gauge themselves, power grab, making bad decisions, opportunities to advance one self that clashes with friends, etc.

Spitfire: Oh, no. It's him. Rainbow Dash: Who? Spitfire: Trigger Word. He's a crazy writer that puts out outrageous claims to provoke a response from the public. Rainbow Dash: Like what? Spitfire: How the Wonderbolts is too pegasus elite exclusive not allowing all pegasus, other winged creatures, unicorns, or even earth ponies to join. Rainbow Dash: That's insane, allowing the wrong ones to join would be like clogging up a working pipe with junk. Spitfire: Precisely, which is why you're going to be the plunger to get him out of here. Rainbow Dash: Ah........

@SaburoDaimando The Windigos would classify as that kind of villain. They only want to do is freeze everyone and everything. Can't be reasoned with because friendship and love removes them.

Daring Do movie. Daring Do as the main character and the Mane 6 as support cast. Any of these movies doesn't have to be about Twilight, a different main character would work better if trying to appeal to a wider audience and gives them a chance to introduce the Mane 6.

Well the content so far of G5 is sticking close to G4 where they're keeping the focus on the same characters with tweaks. Now that's a clue they're gauging reaction.

The forum has been having issues which causes posts to get posted repeatedly.

This episode was cringey. Fluttershy puts the vet in a bind with a bunch of animals that don't get the clue, you're healed now go. She wants a sanctuary and her friends suggest three experts that could help. Now here is where it all goes wrong, Fluttershy does a bad job at communicating what she wants with the project to everyone else and it wasn't planned out well enough for others outside her circle to understand. Before even the suggestion of the experts, Fluttershy should have presented it to her friends first to gauge what is needed before suggesting who could help. The main thing I draw away from the experts and Fluttershy is that she just wastes their time, she comes across as confusing and vague in explaining what she wants to the experts.

Twilight Sparkle: Starlight I have a new friendship lesson. Starlight Glimmer: What is it? Twilight Sparkle: You're going on a date with any type you preference. Just let me know. Starlight Glimmer: A date? Why? Twilight Sparkle: Well, I wanted you get some experience so you don't get caught up in one of those wastes of love at first sight. Huge mistake I made. Flash Sentry: *Tear and walks away.* Twilight Sparkle: So what is your preference? If you say anything that is too young, inanimate, or species not capable of striking a conversation, we'll need to have a talk. Starlight Glimmer: Uh....Shining Armor. Twilight Sparkle: My brother, he's already married. Oh, you like already married colts. I know my brother is a real catch but I wouldn't advise it. Though the whole thing of my brother having an affair with my student.......so tempting. That would be like the ultimate friendship lesson. *Drooling.*

Tirek: Well it looks like I missed a pony. Twilight Sparkle: Maud, get away! Maud Pie: The soil charged triad to use on you has been decided! The light that dictates the time of eternity, Luminous Silver! The darkness that dictates the time of destruction, Demolition Black! The moment that dictates the time of extinction, Steel Gray! Penetrate! I summon you! Odin! Twilight Sparkle: When did Maud learn to use summoning spells? Pinkie Pie: Maud, I am so sorry about ruining your rock collection. Maud Pie: Pinkie... Pinkie Pie: Do you forgive me? Maud Pie: The soil charged triad to use on you has been decided! Pinkie Pie: *Runs away crying.* I'm sorry! Reference: Final Fantasy Unlimited Pinkie Pie: So Twilight in desperation flew all the way from Canterlot to Ponyville to get me and come back to throw you a party. Moondancer: Odd, I thought Twilight would be able to summon you with magic. Pinkie Pie: Wait..wait...wait, you can use magic to summon your friends? Moondancer: Yes, if both friends have an agreement to allow one to summon the other. That's how it works. Pinkie Pie: Twilight, let's make a summon pact. Starlight Glimmer: Oh, this is good spell. Dragon Slave. Spike: Let me guess, it allows you to enslave a dragon under your control. Starlight Glimmer: No, it just completely obliterates a dragon in one hit. Spike: Please don't learn that spell. Starlight Glimmer: Too late. Tempest Shadow: I had the spot for my horn fixed up to carry materia to use different magic.

Andy Price because I like the facial expressions he does when it comes to the funny parts. Especially for the more reserved characters like Luna and Celestia and the times with the angry red eyes.

I hope G5 takes a cue from Pokemon and change up the intro song with something catchy with friendship words. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7V09RfZpm4

*Child Rainbow Dash runs crying past Twilight.* Starlight Glimmer: I just said her parents got eaten by a dragon. Twilight Sparkle: The time stream was put back to normal, no harm no foul. Rainbow Dash: You and Starlight are the reason I have a lot of repressed memories from that flight camp. Applebloom: What I don't get is how a pony can go so long until they're an adult without a cutie mark and then get one by going to this "red light" district. Scootaloo: I don't think there is a cutie mark that gets you all the mares. Sweetie Belle: You got your flame cutie mark by burning down your own house.

Twilight Sparkle: I'm here to stop you Starlight....where's all the pegasus? Starlight Glimmer: Oh them, I just did my civil duty and reported to the authorities some of the staffers have been doing certain things that are a no-no. The children were in danger, so their parents came and took them all home. Twilight Sparkle: No wonder Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy are a mess.

Wrinkly Rarity when she takes her towel off her face that deserves a Flapjack scream effect.
