Anyone relieved that Hasbro walked away from Sony?

I mean seriously. The whole idea of turning MLP into yet ANOTHER live action/CGI New York City-we have to get back home type movie is just ludicrous!

Not to mention Sony's marketing is terrible! So in all, thank you SO much for not picking up such a great idea as a MLP movie and instead doing an Emoji movie! LMFAO!

If Hasbro ever decides to a CGI movie, I would say let Legendary do it. They've done some decent films in the past, and their effects are pretty good.

Did Sony actually offer something? Whether or not they did, I am happy that Hasbro is staying far away from them. Sony just doesn't have a good track record with films these days and the MLP movie would have been doomed from that point.

Didn't the person who wrote the "Make it like smurfs" e-mail resign after people read it? XD

Sony worked with Hasbro initially as the distributor.

From what the leaked hacked e-mail corrospondence between them and hasbro said, they were not very happy with what hasbro was trying to do with it and wanted a "Safer" approach.

To be fair though... They chose Lionsgate ultimately which is known for their fair share of crappy movies too... Including but not limited to Miley Cyrus' terrible "LOL" film.

I wouldn't stand an awful out of the place ponies in real world movie. It'll be just a dumb plot of surviving a for us mundane situation instead of an epic animated adventure. Not to mention the terrible plot, writing, etc

Exactly. If I want to see that, I can read a fanfic.

Don't forget there'd be the boring plot of the boring, world weary human who meets them and learns to become optimistic about life again, like happened in Smurfs/alvin and the chipmunks/EVERY ONE OF THESE MOVIES

Did Sony really say that a movie where the ponies entered the real world made more sense than a movie that takes place in their own universe?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure there's info about that around. But it was clear that Sony wanted creative meddling in the project. Just a classic case of old blue collar executive that don't know shit about the work at hand and they think just putting that characters in anything will be a success :dry:

Only thing I liked from Sony was Sony Vegas, way back when I made YTPs. Plus their label has screwed so many artists over, one band (Wheatus) named their second album "Suck Fony" (really, they did).

 

But yeah, good riddance to Sony being involved.

No wonder Hasbro went "I don't think so".
