    Mostly centrist, about what I expected.

    Honestly that would have made the movie so much better. My only big gripe with the movie was the weak ending, and this alternate one would have been pretty good in comparison.

    I'll preface this by saying I didn't compare the movie to G4 at all, and I won't. No matter how perfect they could have made it, there was no way the movie would ever live up to the magic of G4 and all the memories we made with it. FiM was its own thing, and so is G5. Not to be cliché, but G5 the start of something new; thus, it will take time for it to develop its own magic, and for us to make memories with this new generation. Anyway, I'm rambling. On to the movie. I thought it was pretty good. If I'm gonna nitpick, the ending wasn't as climactic as it could have been. It just seemed a bit too sudden to me. That's something I noticed throughout the whole movie; a lot of scene changes and big emotional moments happened too fast. Even a short two-second addition could've helped blend everything together. To use the ending as an example, after the lighthouse falls over, Sunny immediately seems like she knows the answer. If for a brief moment she looked lost in thought, or maybe an expression showing she'd suddenly figured it out, then it would have flowed better. But she's just stone faced the whole time. That kind of thing is a minor detail throughout the rest of the movie, but at such a pivotal moment, it's a little immersion-breaking. Also, I don't like how they completely glossed over Sunny becoming an alicorn. I think it fits that she became one, but it barely gets acknowledged in any way. It's just kind of, "Ope, Sunny is an alicorn now. Let's wrap up and go home, nothing special here! We see alicorns all the time!" It doesn't taste good after a mildly weak climax (imho). Becoming an alicorn is a huge deal, and it should have been treated like one. I do also wish we could have gotten a little more backstory on what happened to Equestria, how it seems almost all memory of the princesses got erased, why did the windigos not show up, etc., but I can understand why they weren't included in the movie. They've got plenty of time to explain all that in the future media they've got planned for the series. But like I said, I'm nitpicking. It was a really cute movie overall, and I loved it (especially Izzy- her voice acting and character design are on point, and she's so funny). I can't wait to see where G5 goes.

    I sleep with some next to my bed, but not really on my bed. I'd definitely knock them off. I have three foxes (got one on a school band trip, and the other two for christmas), one wolf that I got during a family trip a long time ago, and a Rainbow Dash I got at Bronycon 2019.

    Definitely. Dressing skankily has always just felt odd to me. I don't think it's something that should really be done in public, unless it's for a legitimate reason (extremely hot outside, necessary for their job, etc.). That, and I don't find it attractive. I just think a full set of clothes looks better. Plus, you can tell a fair bit about someone's personality based on how they dress. Someone showing off their body (some guys do it, too) is flamboyant and a bit obnoxious (and makes it seem like they're just vying for attention), which isn't the kind of thing I'm into.

    Yeah, dragons are really cool. My favorite book series is about dragons (Wings of Fire).

    I'm definitely not a good sleeper. I toss and turn a fair bit, and it takes me an hour to fall asleep on a good night. Even sticking to a consistent sleep schedule, staying off technology before bed, and eating healthy doesn't do anything for me. I think the fastest I've been able to fall asleep without already being on the verge of passing out was 30-45 minutes. Usually I'll sleep for about ten hours, and I don't even feel well-rested. Even with all that aside, I don't really like sleep in general. That's upwards of eleven hours I lose from every day, plus the two or three hours it takes for me to become awake enough to actually be productive.

    I love goldfish. Nothing beats the classic cheddar for me, but flavor blasted cheddar is pretty good, too.

    Mmm, appendicitis is fun. At least I get to take a few days off from work, if nothing else. We caught it pretty early, so surgery and everything went smooth (well, excluding the wait times, which were quite long. That was only partially due to covid - the rest was due to someone else who got rushed in and needed surgery more urgently than I did).

    Man, I wish I could have gone to EFNW, but I can only afford one con this year and I already booked for MFF :( There's just a special magic at pony conventions you can't find anywhere else.

    Ah, well.

      Yeah, I get that feel. i wanted to go too, but I was between jobs and already booked my room for Ponyville Ciderfest instead. Maybe next year.

    Oh, I'm not gonna hurt you. I'm just gonna bash your f*ing brains in!

    Kind of surprised there isn't one of these yet. It's simple; just post a random quote from a book, comic, manga, etc., and try to guess what the quote above you is from. I'll start. "Oh, beautiful dragon," she said sympathetically. "Don't you know how much trouble you're already in?"

    Android. I've never liked Apples's OS (mobile or desktop) or their device designs. Not my thing.
  16. Early Sunsets
    Wings of Fire: Darkness of Dragons I just kind of re-read that series over and over.
  17. Early Sunsets
    Titanfall 2. I was recently informed it has a co-op mode and have been playing that almost non-stop.
  18. Early Sunsets
    Not very. I'm a twig. Strong for a twig, but still a twig. I can lift things heavier than me, at least. I'm 135 pounds, and I think the heaviest I've lifted was 150? (we're not supposed to lift heavy packages alone, but whatever)
  19. Early Sunsets
    Yeah. Not getting recognition for the hard work you put into things sucks.
  20. Early Sunsets
    A save / load feature would be amazing. Also the slow down / speed up time thing in Majora's Mask.
  21. Early Sunsets
    The Runner (for completing 'The Runner') from Battlefield 1. I really liked that game's campaign, especially Through Mud and Blood.

    Don't think I've shared this boy yet.

    You are now obligated to look at him and admire his beauty.

    Hmm window shopping on Zillow just turned into "I might buy this house on Zillow."

    To be fair, it's a slim chance. But still a possibility.

    My school didn't allow senior pranks. Of course, that didn't stop me from doing mine.
  25. Early Sunsets
    I travel to see family or go to conventions or other events, but that's it. I don't really care about 'seeing the world.' I'd rather stay home.
