  1. Chrysalis, no doubt.

    The season 2 finale always reminds me of Little Mermaid when she disguises as the princess and almost takes over Canterlot.

    She definitely won me over in the season 6 finale, with an almost villain victory, considering the only thing that stopped her was Starlight and Thorax, and that was still pretty impressive for an MLP villain, nearly capturing almost every single pony and taking over the whole kingdom, despite being stopped by a traitor to her kingdom.

  2. That hotdiggedydemon series was good, it got me interested in his other animations, including Brain Dump, which is a very hilarious video series he is doing at the moment.

    I think at this point they probably use streaming services and video-on-demand instead. Physical media in general is on its way to fading from the mainstream. If parents do use discs, I would presume they're DVDs: DVDs are cheaper, most TV cartoons are only released on DVD, and little kids are probably not that picky about video quality. 

    TV shows just aren't guaranteed to get a Blu-ray release the way that movies are. A cursory glance at blu-ray.com tells me that even Adventure Time hasn't gotten blu-rays past its sixth season, and many other cartoons don't even have that.  Who knows, maybe there will be a huge Blu-ray boom in the near future and even shows for small children like My Little Pony will be released on high-definition optical discs. But I suspect the audience who would buy such things is fairly small. 

    I am a little disappointed that streaming is sorta taking over, but at the same time, streaming IS convenient.

    I will usually prefer physical DVD and Blu-ray, due to the fact that Netflix and Disney Plus doesn't really have bonus features, and that is a shame.

    Plus, licenses can always run out and movies and shows get removed and rotated all the time. Copyright is really a pain.

    And I hope you are right about Blu-ray having a big boom in the coming years, maybe it might totally replace DVD as a format, but I probably should not get too ahead of myself, since there are lots of material from the past that was not made for 1080p upscaling.

    I am just really glad the fans pick up the ball when the parent company, Hasbro doesn't even care for the fandom market that much when it comes to DVD and Blu-ray sales.

  4. I am a little disappointed that Shout Factory stopped at season 7, but I hope there is some other company out there that can pick up the pace in the future.

    I am sure this has already been said before, but I want the whole show, plus any specials and spinoffs on Blu ray.

    I am sorta coming to light and realizing that yes, DVD is sorta obsolete at this point in time, considering it is only 480p, if I am not mistaken.

    Although, maybe I should not hold my breath too much on this, considering this is a Hasbro cartoon to sell toys, and the target audience is young girls.

    But, how many parents still use DVDs over Blu rays to put on cartoons for their kids?

    Since I know every single episode is encoded and upscaled by the fans, I can possibly wait a few more years or so before another company decides to make a release that panders to the fandom.

  5. I have been thinking about this, ever since the G5 announcement.

    Will the brony fandom still exist for G4, or will people just throw it in the trash the moment we find out the new generation is palatable?

    I recently returned to the fandom, and I am planning on watching the remaining few seasons I have left to watch.

    I am mostly worried that the awesomeness of this community will disappear from the face of the earth, and I will be slightly depressed knowing how awesome my college life was when I found out about the show during its second season airing.

    Does anyone else have any thoughts about this?
