I don't hate the later seasons, and actually enjoy plenty of episodes from them. But to be honest, I probably would've preferred the direction of the show if Faust and more of the older writers had stayed. I prefer the writing style of the older seasons, and think the show would've ended off better if it hadn't run for so long. Equestria Girls would've never existed, along with some fan-pandering stuff, which I consider to be a good thing. Twilight probably would've stayed a unicorn and her tree library wouldn't have gotten destroyed in place of an ugly looking castle too, both of which would be a plus for me.

My favorite song from the show is You'll Play Your Part (the song in Twilight's Kingdom), I really like Tempest's song in the movie too, but it's not technically part of the show. I also like the song in May The Best Pet Win, but mostly because it's so memorable for me and not because of the song itself.

Yup! I started rewatching season one today while I was at a relative's house

Based off of what we've seen so far; I wouldn't even be slightly interested in G5 if it weren't for the fact it's in the MLP franchise, I tend to like things in the fantasy genre but the new generation seems very lacklustre in that regard. It would feel wrong to just never check it out though, so if I can watch it I'll give the movie a shot.

Ignoring the phones I'm starting to like G5's character designs and animation less and less, they probably have a pretty high budget and they didn't even take the opportunity to give them varied face and body shapes. Sure, Pipp's design looks nice but I can't tell what her personality is just by looking at it, compare that to G4's designs where you can kinda tell what their personalities are just by looking at their mane-styles, expressions or colors. Also I would've loved to see a high fantasy or even futuristic Equestria but it seems like they're going in a bland, more modern direction.

Pony Life kinda hurts to watch, every time they mention modern technology (like phones and tablets) I shrivel up like a raisin , plus I don't find it very visually appealing. If somebody likes it though I guess I could see why, the plots of episodes are much simpler and less serious than FiM.

Hopefully not, it'd be fine between secondary/background ponies but having it between main characters would suck

I would be a Unicorn because computers don't exist in Equestria and if I lived there I would probably study magic instead of programming, I also draw and that would be difficult without levitation. I also think being a Unicorn just fits me more than being an Earth Pony or Pegasus, especially since I have no interest in flying or animals.

As other people have mentioned you can't directly see a black hole (its gravitational force prevents light from escaping) but you can see its silhouette and the hot gas surrounding it

NASA actually posted an image of a black hole back in 2019: https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/chandra/news/black-hole-image-makes-history

I definitely prefer pens over pencils when it comes to writing, and as weird as it is I often prefer drawing with them too

I think Pipp is my favorite so far, she has a cool design and seems to be less annoying than the other three, who I like the most might change once the movie comes out though

This is a thread where I'll be posting all my pony artwork, I appreciate any critique.

Applejack Portrait:

Quick and messy Pinkie Pie painting:

I like the character designs but their faces look really awkward and strange. It doesn't have nearly as much appeal as the art in G4, that's for sure

I've been doing programming related stuff throughout most of the day, I even made a complete pong game in Python. Other than that I haven't done much worth mentioning

This unchanging stillness... Isn't that what I am?

Arms wrapped in neon like a warning

A rainbow bridge unfurling

I think it's because there aren't that many prominent or interesting pegasus characters in the show; unless I'm forgetting somebody the only ones I can think of are Fluttershy and Rainbowdash. Meanwhile there are plenty of interesting unicorn ponies like Starlight, Trixie, Sunburst, Starswirl, etc.

In season 9, I believe Rarity used her horn to shoot a magical beam and levitated pinkie in the air as if the was flying. In "2, 4, 6, Great", Snails uses self levitation. And in "Growing Up is Hard to Do", Sweetie Belle teleports into a hay bale. In "The Beginning of the End", many unicorns begin shooting beams at the mane six, and as early as season seven, Twilight Velvet is shown levitating multiple ponies in the air on the zeppelin. While comics don't really count because their cannon is shaky, there are scenes where Rarity uses strong magic like teleportation.

It seems like the writers of season nine either favorited unicorns by a large margin, or they forgot that only powerful unicorns were supposed to able to do these kinds of spells.

I've also noticed this and it might be another reason why unicorns are becoming more popular, stuff like teleportation or other advanced magic doesn't seem limited to powerful unicorns anymore

Watching an Equestria Girls movie with my brother even though we don't like them and it's really late at night

I'd like it if G5 was more adventure and world-building focused than G4, the world of FiM (even before it was super complex) was always one of my favorite aspects of the show, so I'd like it if they either expanded the world of G4 or started from scratch with a world that's equally as interesting (preferably they should start from scratch but I'm fine with them doing either).

What I wouldn't want; anything modern or "hello fellow kids", an art style like Pony Life (ick), anything directly relating to real-world politics, the friendship school or any school for that matter.

Nope, it's been years since any family member of mine has had cable, even if they did I wouldn't be interested in watching it

Thank you all for the compliments on my artwork!

@abrony-mouse Not a huge fan of TMNT, real turtles are way cuter lol

The turtle in the image is a diamondback terrapin btw, they're my favorite species of turtle

This is a tough question to answer but songs I've been listening to a lot lately include:

1. Winterquilt & Fire-Toolz - O'discordia (my favorite right now)
2. Fire-Toolz - Decrepit Phoenix
3. Shinjuku Mad - Resistor (I love Dreamcast by Blank Banshee too)
4. Sage Hardware - Trepidation

I'm Kharrnix and I do art and programming stuff. I'm 15 and am from the US, I've always been a big loner by nature, but I'm looking to make a friend or two on these forums.

Some things about me: I have a weird amount of knowledge on turtles (I'm serious), my favorite color is coral, Luna is the best princess

I'm just gonna put my most recent painting here (spoiler because the image is kinda big):
