  2. Kind of expected it since G4 was also PG. Can't really go back to aiming for G when you already know the material your audience expects.

    It might sound strange, but the idea of a dystopian society and the theme of corruption being present in the movie really catch my attention. :huh:

    Or they can go a different route...

  3. As long as G5 avoids hot-button topics like FiM mostly did, it should be in good hands. I'll have to wait until we see more of the main character's "activist" qualities before I can make a full analysis. Here's hoping they're careful with the protagonist's traits, because I don't sympathize with one who is too preachy.

    I don't mind the themes of diversity and inclusion, but both concepts have already been done in such a way that neither can hardly be considered new. G4 did this in the later seasons with the School of Friendship, and before that they've had other beings such as dragons and griffons as main and/or rising characters. I myself didn't mind the Student Six, but some of their storylines were a mixed bag and they took away focus from other members of the cast. Diversity should be focused more about the quality of the characters, not necessarily the appearance.

    Well, we got revelations about G5. However, among them are themes of inclusivity and diversity, and the main character being an activist. So those fears of G5 being woke shit are well founded :sunny:

    I'll also withhold judgment until I see the movie, but given what's been going on these past few years I had a feeling I saw it coming. G4 was subtle with its lessons of diversity, but the next one looks to be anything but that. Changing focus from friendship to activism is surely sign of the times.

  5. My life wasn't drastically affected by COVID aside from my gym closing and a planned trip to Florida in May being cancelled. Instead I took a couple of trips away from the house with the furthest being Pennsylvania. The busy season at my job was pushed to July due to tax deadlines being extended three months.

    I had two close calls, both among people I work with. In September, someone who visited my office tested positive. In December, my boss tested positive so we had to work from home for one week.
