KillerKingBakudan 702 October 18, 2016 Share October 18, 2016 As in, a fantasy/comedy movie set in our own world with live actors interacting with CG ponies dropping in via a portal from Equestria? No questions asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FizzyGreen 909 October 18, 2016 Share October 18, 2016 Hm... CG you say... I would rather prefer 2D in real life like in my little dashie. But if it's supposed to be a comedy movie and then CG in real life, then i guess i'd be fine with it. "You are right Starlight, you are more talented in magic than me. But talent doesn't mean, that you are privileged to have more power. It's the heart! All you need, to have power, is a heart!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashi 261 October 18, 2016 Share October 18, 2016 The instinctive reaction is, of course, "No. Commit seppuku for even thinking it," but as always, the real response should be, "Can they do it well?" If it was well-written, well-acted, the animation didn't verge into Uncanny Valley (no CGI MLP pony I've seen so far has convinced me that this is possible) and there was an interesting and not contrived reason for them to be there ... yeah, it could just about work.

Merion 783 October 18, 2016 Share October 18, 2016 Story-wise, I don't like the idea of cartoon characters dropping in via a portal of some sort and interacting with real people... It's been done a million times before and it's getting kinda boring. On the other hand tho, I do enjoy combining live action with traditional 2D animation (like in Space Jam or Who Framed Roger Rabbit). ^^' I wouldn't mind seeing 2D ponies next to real actors even if the story sucked xD click here! ♥ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knightgem 158 October 18, 2016 Share October 18, 2016 CG ponies? No! Though if done right an EQG Live action could go down pretty well, but that's IF it's done correctly and a suiteble script and actors/actresses are found to really capture the essence of what we all know and love about MLP 1 isn't flashing your riches, it's sharing it with others that don't know how or can't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredpaisley 81 October 18, 2016 Share October 18, 2016 I would be so down with an Equestria Girls live action, CG would have to be on key though I would also love a remake where in loo of ponyville and CGI ponies, horses were brought in with just the cutie marks CG'd on. I think it would have to be for fans, as I am presuming the horses wouldnt do much more then stand around in a foyer made to look like the castle, give each other looks with subtitles to explain what the characters are saying and do maybe the walk through the mirror scene. I would picture Twilight as a black mare with a white star on her forehead and she would take a full second in horse form, after walking through the portal before bliping into the actress. Just for the horse to look around with a "Why am I here, silly humans" expression. I really would love it to be a comedy, or even poke fun at itself and the series/fans - although I am sure some ponies would be sensitive I think if done right it could be fantastic. I would stick with comedy for live acting though, because it would be easy to make fun of not using CGI and the live horses having issues acting out our friends - then stick to Equestria High as to avoid using them for the majority of the show and still keep the spirit. Then to flop on CGI which many of us seem a little unsure on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiratePony 8,475 October 18, 2016 Share October 18, 2016 I don't like movies where cartoon characters appear in the real world as of late, such as that awful Smurfs movie. If it was done incredible well, like Who Framed Roger Rabbit, that'd be another story. But masterpieces like that are hard to come by (one reason that movie stands up and looks fantastic 30 years later and nothing like that has come out since that was anything close), so I'd worry that it'd be more of the Smurfs and Alvin & The Chipmunks variety. 1 Courtesy of @Sparklefan1234 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind a live-action version if the ponies looked the same as they do in the show, but otherwise, I'm not interested. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cider float 2,537 October 18, 2016 Share October 18, 2016 It would mean more MLP... but it would likely be bad. Take a gander at these videos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivishy 1,032 October 18, 2016 Share October 18, 2016 It could either be really cool or it could go well .I don't know how to feel about this. Not really sure any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cider float 2,537 October 18, 2016 Share October 18, 2016 I feel like if they did something like this, it won't cast the mane six or any of the G4 cast but would be about some girl and her pet horse that could talk and have magic and there is some bad guy bothering her family, is an evil corporate boss or whatever so the girl and the horse kick his flank and save the day.

RealityPublishing 323 October 18, 2016 Share October 18, 2016 (edited) Yeah, they already did a live action movie, it just was never finished. Man, they had a trailer and everything. Such a shame. . . Edited October 18, 2016 by RealityPublishing 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leave a Whisper 703 October 18, 2016 Share October 18, 2016 No. That would be awful and bland. Some kinds of cartoons just aren't meant for live action and Hollywood and live action cartoon movies usually equals blah or bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
