I found the funni bear image and rotoscoped rainbow dash as the bear

Let's talk about the supposed movie.

Yes, that movie.

The live action my little pony movie.

It's...well....

HAVE WE LEARNED NOTHING FROM PROJECTS LIKE THIS, HASBRO? DO YOU KNOW NOT THE RIDICULE THAT WAS THE ORIGINAL MARIO MOVIE?? HATH THEE NOT CONSIDERED THY SHAREHOLDERS? THEY'RE GONNA TAKE YOUR ELBOWS NEXT MAN

and before you begin to point at the hedgehog, let me remind you that what we have, was only possible due to fans, and fans wanting to please fans. Why? because they care, and we care.

Does hasbro care about us?

Well as long as we have money yeah.

But otherwise? No. No i don't TINK so pal.

There's only a handful of ways this can go, either we go the powerpuff girls movie route, or we could attempt, atleast attempt something reminiscent of who framed roger rabbit, or for younger people, chip n dale's movie from recent, WHICH DID HAVE MLP CHARACTERS WHICH WAS ACTUALLY KINDS COOL.

Or we could go full on one of those movies with real animals that they put voices over. Which hey, if this is the thing that happens, half of y'all reading this would give up on mlp altogether after it comes out.

But i can only see our best bets being the hybrid cgi and live action, but hopefully not the roadtrip with tiny cartoon animals kind. We dont need another chipmunks, or hop, and yes i know, paramount did it with sonic too but, cmon they were testing the waters a bit. 

I really don't want this to flop, like i REALLY don't, i practically just got here and everything is burning down. So let's just hope g5's abrupt end was but a small bump in the road, and this movie lets hasbro find their footing not only in the industry, but finally with the fans too, right? 

But if this does flop. Atleast we can view g5 in a more positive light, yeah?

Anyways, i wanted to just discuss, this so called, big budget live action film.

Whatever happens next, we do it together, kay? So til next time. Im going back to bed.

Extremely old sketch i did back in high-school

Feel the wrath of god little horse.

ps, i love deltarune

How're ya goin lads, i write to you as of nearly 3 in the morning on my lunch break.

Oh yeah also i got a job at walmart, im a functioning asset to society now so my fixation on ponies is adequately acceptable, im working i got my own money why should my favorites be any of ya business, right? Anyway, im gonna make this short, i like to make my schedule tight. 

Diving right in let's talk about the future of MLP as we see it............

Radio silence.

Eerie

Radio silence.

But once again it's left up to the community to figure something out. To perserve our obsession, escape, or even just a general liking. Either which one im still just an observation im just watching y'all do your thing like with several other communities i watch, im like that one soyjack meme where the room is a party but the guy standing in the corner alone.

They think im one of them basically.

Anywho, I'll tell you all this now

You all

Are amazing 

Genuinely.

As a fandom.

I know you all don't get such good reputation from certain people around the community, and even those you refuse to have accepted as a part of the community, and rightfully so. Speaking of those types of people, the collision still happening? Yknow where the UK becomes equestria or something...

Im still tired so i dont know where im going with any of this. I twisted this direction for so long that now that im rotating the other way its slowly chipping pieces off of me.

I guess what this is, is just a filler. Something to get back with you gu- WAIT I REMBER

Y'all are actually so cool, the preservation, the artistry, the music, everything you built upon, just from this one generation of a show.

And it was a group effort, it was possible because youl all worked together, you cooperated, found each other, and made something just so... guys. As an outsider technically.

Great job. Genuinely.

Im working from 11 PM to 7 AM so yeah of course it hurts the thoughting thing up in my head, so just cope with me here.

Anyways that was it for now, i just wanted to see y'all again, also im gonna ask my manager for a locker so i put this on it, i made it in blender and photoshop touch, i printed it too so now we wait

Da image, it didn't send wirh the post my bad

I want to play Arkham Shadow so baddddd but I don't have anything to play it on 

As for your idea about a g4 series for an older audience...it's gotta be a no from me (and probably Hasbro too). I could maybe see them doing something like that in the comics, but MLPs target audience is and will probably always be for young girls, and that's okay since anyone can still enjoy and appreciate it regardless of who you are. I'd even argue that in later seasons a lot of the references or fan service directed towards bronies was kinda forced and bad. I also just don't think it'd really add anything other than "Heh...these ponies can say the F word and stab other ponies..." because a lot of what G4 fans love about G4 (characters, worldbuilding, etc.) really has a lot to do with how mature it is. Never once have I watched the earlier seasons and thought it'd be better if it was aimed towards adults. I don't want Hasbro to cater a ton to what bronies want because I feel like that would take away from a lot of the charm, MLP was good because it was a wholesome show with occasional dark moments and fantasy action sequences. If you took that away to make it edgier it wouldn't really be My Little Pony, it'd be My Manly Brony. Good for a fan fic/comic I guess, but I don't want Hasbro sinking any money into it. At that point, just make another horse show.

Also I feel like if Hasbro suddenly started catering a lot to bronies and making things edgier I'd turn against everyone on this site and probably resent bronies as a whole

What i meant by targeted towards teens and adults was something more along the lines of holding back less in the joke department, more choreography in battles, deeper lessons and yeahh i did say violence that's my bad i dont mean like mr davie level, just enough that throwing a punch is okay 

So between real life situations, cutting EXTREMELY close, and my body telling me its time to pick up the cane old man, i can't let the opps know i failed to entertain bronies so while i wait for the antihistamines to kick in (im sick leave me alone.) Im writing to you all right now, and i wanna keep things on topic so lets rp you're the dinosaurs and im the astroid coming barreling at you at ~400+ mph at you with things you did not want to know but i love y'all for listening anyways lads 

I've watched the sonic 3 movie, then on the 17th i got a quest 3 and beat batman arkham shadow and stole 3 different cool alter egos in the span of 2 months I'm batman.

Halfway typing that i realized i went off topic so lemme get right into it yeah?

So, my little pony...right?

Mlp, eh?

You all love it, you all have the guilty pleasure of watching colorful horses, either you're open, or this is your biggest secret, it don't matter, you're here to converse with others with similar tastes mate. I know i told you all about the whole dream scenario i had, where i tried to implement myself into a forum filled with mlp stuff, and long story short, people didn't like me but i didn't care im stubborn.

Im outta the funny juice rn but I'm gonna continue ranting just pretend this one's funny, just start laughing out of nowhere because how funny this is, please feed my ego.

But you all are relatively chill, I've only ever had one bad interaction in the history of ever. I could definitely think of a few ideas for g6 in relation to a prior post, and im not exactly sure but...are the comics any good? Can twilight through a mean right hook at tirek in the comics? Because something g6 needs again is something completely new, and seeing as mlp has a LOT of character designs they can do, new templates, new canvases, everything, simply put, we have the resources. All of them. But what we need or likely who we need is someone who can put it all together. In fact i have an idea that completely contradicts my prior post

A g4 series for get this.......teens and young adults lads. We're talking action, violence, and GREATER horror. We can do it, we seen things in the likes of mr davie, mayhem town (ew.) And so many others who have the uhhh ahahaha twisted mind, just a- just a glimpse in my dark twisted world 😈😈. But we CAN do it, and it SHOULD happen, albeit not canon since that would imply that since it happens in canon, anything related to g4 should follow suit, before g5. Which wouldn't make sense chronologically, because how can you have devil may cry esque action, and have g5 be nothing like that right?

So, what i propose is two series, split off, different from one another, a non canon continuation of g4 that tailors to fan's needs and wants of a proper g4 comeback, and a g6 show that could experiment all they want, because they'll both have their fans. G4 with it's original formula, built upon for an older audience who grew up with it, and and g6 for a younger audience, doing something new that also pleases these fans (get lauren back lads) but g4 shouldn't be this whole MANLY like primal thing so that it isn't like an insinuated gatekeeping, just enough to where it could be something extreme but still be recognized as MLP.

Now the question that would get is "yeah but uh, two of the same show wouldn't work cause like hasbro doesn't do that stuff mate" but you gotta remember, at some time, g4 has its original show, EQG, and pony life all at the same time. And g5 had 2 shows simultaneously.

Now this could work by giving one show to one company that specializes in action and great choreography, and the other to a company that could make animations for kids like normal.

Also the scary bit of everything right now is elon musk threatening to buy hasbro purely just for D&D which would've been fine, if that meant the other I.Ps didn't get the toy story 2 scene where andy said "i dont wanna play with you anymore 😐" and dropped woody into the void.

Thats what im worried about, and we all know his...vision for certain things aren't the best, about 4% of all twitter uses left, which may not seem like a lot but that could very well be in the millions.

But whatever happens, if g6 ends up in the same lane as g5 or could be the successor, the prodigy of g4, we'll still have our little ponies to entertain us, teach us and everything in between, because a franchise such as mlp can bring people together, differing opinions and views, set aside for our love of this show and franchise as a whole. If hasbro could see, if they could TRULY see what impact their show had on us, they'd realize they need to take care of their little gift to us. G4 knew what we wanted and albeit hesitantly, gave us something we'd never forget, that hasbro is still there and there's a big chance that with g6, our kids and the next generation can have the same spark we had when we watched g4 as kids.

Anyways I'll stop talking for now someone woke me from my dormancy by commenting on another post you get 5 big booms

Nvm im not doing it, but have a good day lads and I'll see you next time idk when that'll be.

So im actually going into this right now as soon as i woke up, i sprung up from my slumber and decided to shake my fist at the ol mates up at hasbro since apparently its not just my little pony they managed to fumble the bag with, but seemingly almost every i.p the company owns, their most recent blunder seems to be the fact that they stated they wont fund anymore animated transformers movies, seeing how tfone performed, i think it looked good from what doomscrolling i did on youtube, but more on topic about our favorite unhealthy obsession with miniature pastel equines mate, hasbro fumbled hard, canceling g5 doesn't seem to be doing em any as good as keeping it going, yeah not much liked it and i get it, but hasbro mate you just alerted the horde by pulling the plug, you made the fans pick up the gauntlet and say "fine, I'll do it myself." Now if you'd let them I'd imagine they'd do a much better job at this, but it's nothing personal, sometimes companies just forget how their own franchise works i mean think about sega and how hiring ian flynn has essentially sent us into the renaissance age for sonic, it's because you have to hire someone who knows how the story should work, how the characters can have a personality different from one another, if you truly think that the issue was you simply forgotten how to run mlp, then hire someone who knows how to manage it properly, and hey it could've even overshadowed g4 with a fresh coat of cgi.

So, speaking of things that'll never happen...

Remember the whole ponyverse thing that they ol yellered'd? To be honest i think it was a good decision, sure it wasn't meant to fit in the canon, but the general story i pieced from the handful of screenshots, didn't look quite as good like it tailored to babies or toddlers more, yes i know who the intended targeted demographic was supposed to be but look at me, i am the targeted demographic now- LOOK AT ME. I am the targeted demographic. Now.

What i think could give g6 a better headstart rather than just g4's story continued, which i have to throw this in, i didn't think worked, you made an entire story a decade earlier detailing to the smallest thing to create a message that can show anyone, that just a lil kindess can go a long way, that you need help sometimes, or that even your friends can help cushion your downfall if you have one and they're readily nearby.

And g5 took the most recent aspect of g4 and said "oh yea uh twilight is like, the princess or somethin mate but we're gonna do stuff we do and not bring that detail any further hey?"

No no i get it, bringing any g4 characters into the picture is gonna cost money, and mr krabs doesn't like spending money.

Which hey, i don't mind saving, im scraping by each month too but dont be greedy hasbro.

If your community, or one of them, knows you as a corporation that creates bad decisions soley just to save an extra dollar, and your fans create something so much better than your own that you feel the need to remove that pot of land they reside on, then you got a problem, don't make me tap the sign mate, be like sega

Sega actively ENCOURAGES fan projects, even scott cawthon, scott cawthon even plays some of those fangames because he loves his community so much, sega keeps their fans in touch, and don't treat everyone like corporate property.

What I'm getting at is, show your fans that you're there, that you're listening. They want to know they're being heard without boycotting or a mass riot.

These are grown men who never step outside to feel the grass mate that stuff hurts us, so we know what a good series looks like, instead of shooting down fan projects, look at several of them, avoid mr davey, and survey what fans want in your franchise, the people want some semblance of danger or the very real possibility to die, we don't just want all talk and no action, partly why g4 was a success was the action.

Hasbro, by all means mate you got a good fandom with plenty of people who'll support your little show to the end, but don't bring back g4 for g6, we had the end of g4, and it was good, but we can't stay in the past forever.

Anyways ye ol mates thanks for reading my ramblings here, been a while since I've been on here i know, but I'll come back again someday when I'm needed, probably like june 2025 or something if nothing big comes up for a bit

I've been a fan of mlp g4 for a decade but this is the first time i've been on a brony forum because of how socially awkward i am. It feels like g4 had everything i wanted and things i didn't know i need.

Well hey, welcome brother im kind of new as well, just not as active

How's it going everypony, everybody, and all things in between, not wasting any time I'll start off what I've been doing that was so important that went inactive for the better part of my time here.

I havent exactly found a reason to post nor browse, just active on discord or VRchat with 2 of my (only) best friends...when they arent busy with eachother. So dont worry i haven't exactly died yet.

As of October 17th it seems g5 has ended, and to pay my respects...

I watched tyt for the first and possibly last time.

While the ending 2ws lackluster and not as impactful as say, its big sister g4.m, tgere was a certain message to be told, which in essence was a goodbye, saying not all good things will last long.

Plans of g6 are already being rumored, and knowing hasbro, it could very well not be until 2027 or later, i wasn't entirely happy how everything ended, with there being no real conclusion of g5, most things we as the audience have missed out on storywise.

The whole connected universe things they were originally going for before shooting down said bird seemed like an idea at the time, with a huge emphasis on inclusion, minus seemingly any generation under g4 which is...weird, specifically.

I think now would be to put your hopes and dreams of g6 into this bucket that's slowly being bolied away from the furnace fire below fueled by money we call hasbro, and tell us all what Your version of g6 would consist of, and if connected to g4 and g5, just 4 or 5, what would you retcon and what would you bring back? 

Me personally, I'd start anew to avoid throwing progressively bigger pebbles at g4 before it completely shatters entirely.

Thanks, i finished it at 5 am

I really should sleep

I didn't know what to put this under, either non pony art or something else...i am confusion, anyways enjoy fellas + sketch

So, originally the character was based on me irl, but over time i just thought

"What if we made him cooler, like say no to drugs cool, staying in school cool, like freakin' doing leon from resident evil ahh bsckflips cool, like 20-" 

And so as i got more and more of a grasp of how i wanted him to look, it evolved to essentially vegeta sonic, haha i beat you to it now you owe me money everytime you say it, its trademarked people, pick up a book, joking of course, because if it wasn't i wouldn't be scraping for dimes constantly, anyways, here's the fella from july 13th 2020 to now.

This sounds like a great conversation!
But it actually belongs in Sugercube Corner, not in General Discussion. Allow me to move it for you. 

Thanks chief, will note for future use

Now I'm relatively new to the brony community, only been around since around last December.

But in that time, I've spent a long while learning everything there is to know about our favorite magical equine learning about values of friendship tv show, and its various iterations throughout the years, with the 80s being home to g1, g2 having the 90s (doesnt have a show), g3 in the 2000s, which fun fact, my birthdate is only 5 days after g3's initial release of december 8th 2003, everyones favorite, g4, dominating the 2010s, and finally so far g5, which has had a bit of a rocky start and a split fanbase, now g5 for me was off the table for the longest time. Acknowledging the dislike from the fandom, i distanced myself from the youngest, but overtime exposing myself to a bit more and more of what g5 has to offer. Knowing the bare minimum from the first movie, i liked what i seen, much to other peoples...different tastes, so after a while, I've thought about starting to watch g5 in its entirety the same way I've done for previous generations.

And if you want a summary of what i know about each generations show in nutshell here it is!

G1: the very start of it all, not exactly having its footing, open to experimenting and started off with a bang with the pilot showcasing tirac (yes i spelled that right) who is a precursor to tirek of g4, tirac had a similar goal to nightmare moon of g4.

G2: Fredbear does not exist. Spring bonnie does not exist. He does not exist. He does not exist. He does not exist. He does not exist. He does not ex-

G3: Generation 3 was a bit of a hit or miss, often times being on the unbearable side and typically what most outside fandoms view g4 to be, gotta admit i love the background music.

G4: and here's arguably the golden child of hasbro, lauren faust worked on the pilot of the show before taking the wheel of the show up until season 3(?) Feel free to correct me, until hasbro said "thank you for the horses, but we'll take it from here now, mine now sister YOINK." 

G5: a bit of a juxtaposition from prior generation shows, except probably mlp tales from g1, in a modern day setting, complete with country wide cross communication cellular devices and gen alpha brainrot soon! 

But enough about what is established set in stone and perserved in museums, how do I feel about that you may ask?

I like it. You wont find me often hating something without checking it out first, and going based on a handful of episodes is like being on the 5ft end of the pool, but as soon as i explored the icebergs, i slipped and fell into the the bootes void.

This lead me to reach out to others in the fandom, to make the journey feel less...alone, even from what i know, there's still a lot to learn here, so multiple dreams came up of me reaching to said fandom, to socialize, to make friends, annnd they all ended the same, i got bullied cause i didn't have a pony sona but a human one, and i was pushed away in said dream, you all owe me an apology for something out of your control and me being paranoid.

Jokes aside, im more open now to looking for others who loves this series as much as i do, and so i reach out to you all, albeit not individually, I'd be here all day 

If you liked what you read and wanna be friends, talk, have discussions, or even just socialize one on one (talking, they're all talking) then you know where to find me, i might make more posts going in depth about my experiences like this one.

Come talk to me if you have the time and the patience to listen to me ramble like an old man on a rocking chair facing an open field.

Ps. If you have any questions, you know what to do, see you on the flipside everypony.

Hey fellas i need your opinions for this, i make art i do sketches late at night and lose useless sleep, and im just wondering if should post them here (each topic in their respective category, i.e pony stuff in pony stuff, other stuff in other stuff)

You can call this a resume if you will

(I hope to Celestia im doing this correctly)

Little tidbit of trivia for you mate

Lauren faust's childhood memories of her playing with her g1 pony toys is what inspired a handful of episodes, before g4 and notably g5, G3 had used cgi 3d models once only to promote a reskined hasbro toy and the models was never used again.
