Moments you thought the show was being corny

Fluttershy's line in "The Last Roundup" is overbearingly saccharine: "If you don't come back, we'll never be able to fix the hole in our hearts."

 

The scene in Tanks For The Memories when all of the main characters cry with RainbowDash in her bedroom.

That scene didn't make me go "awww...". It actually made me roll my eyes. 

 

I felt like the writers were trying to make that scene a bit too overemotional.

 

Considering what she did to the Weather Factory and Ponyville earlier in the episode, that felt like a complete 180. I couldn't feel any sympathy for her after that.

I usually hold no complaints against corny moments, but I have one exception: the songs. Now, I love most of the music in the show (and I would argue that the majority of it isn't corny), but when I tried first showing my brother the Crystal Empire and Magical Mystery Cure, my dad would walk in only during the songs, and oh my god did I cringe.

 

My brother doesn't mind them (in fact, he really loves Celestia's Ballad). But the songs paint a picture for my dad that MLP is a super girly musical cartoon, and he's quite set in that belief.

When Cheerilee and Big Mac were calling eachother nicknames when they were under the love potion.

EXACTLY! I know someone that talks to her dog like that with all the Snookie-wookie nonsense! I was practically yelling "Stop that!" at the screen!

The entirety of the first 2 episodes. I love the first two episodes of the show, don't get me wrong, nostalgia is intense with those, but they both have a lot of awkwardness. The introduction of the first song in the show didn't feel natural and having Twilight be sooooooooooooooooooooooo resentful of everyone there was a bit off. I get it that it was for the point but still. Or like when Applejack bucks the tree and does that weird pose. Like, does she do that everytime she hits a tree? 

 

I still love those episodes but I can't deny how awkward and corny they feel now.

I don't know why, but I think some people are mixing up corny and cringey. They are not interchangeable and do not mean the same thing. Spike singing the Cloudsdale National Anthem is cringey whereas anytime Ms. Cheerilee says "my little ponies" is corny.

 

I honestly don't mind the more "cornier" moments in the show. MLP just wouldn't be the same without these lighthearted moments :lol:.

Sunset: And I want to show you the most important magic of all!

*Goes Super Saiyan*

DayDream Sunset: The magic... of friendship!

 

Don't get me wrong, that transformation and ensuring fight was awesome (though as an anime fan I wish it were longer), but just the way Sunset says that last line... First time I heard it, I said, quote, "I love this show, but that was unbelievably corny."

That scene was more silly, I don't think they tried to hard to make it emotional.

Thank you Randimaxis for this Wonderful Avatar. smile.png

Please, don't be afraid to talk to me. I am not as unapproachable, as you might think.

I think that the biewer coukd interperate it either way.

I saw it as the writers trying to make an emotional scene when, in reality, they failed.

I disagree. I myself think it is supposed to be funny. Why would they throw in jokes in the mix? The "crying in the inside joke". If you see any other emotional scene in the show, they generally try to keep a less silly mood. You might disagree, but I find it quite obvious.

If i am honest, the whole show has a bit of corniness. But i am not really bothered by it. :P

The very title of the show is corny. XD
