FlareGun45 2,221 October 8, 2017 Share October 8, 2017 Too late, I gave you a chance to answer, but time's up! It means with the movie outta the way, things on the show can really get serious! Changes can start happening! Main characters now have the green light to change, both personality-wise and physically! Pinkie Pie could turn into Pizza Pie! Rarity can get a new permanent hairstyle! Spike can grow wings and become rebellious! >:D The CMCs could even get their cutie marks finally, believe it or not! But jokes aside, brahs, season 8 could be the start of big new things happening! What do ya think? The season 7 finale has already started that path! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrond 3,271 October 8, 2017 Share October 8, 2017 I really, truly hope that the show starts actually changing some things going forward, because it's been a long time since I felt like it was really progressing. Season 6 had some welcome experimentation, but 4, 5, and 7 were all really safe. That change had better be earned, though, or we'll have another "Magical Mystery Cure" on our hands. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think just 5 and most of 7 played it safe. 4, not really, alot went forward. Oh, hey Imma evil changeling now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, 4 often felt to me like it was coasting on prior seasons' success without having the characters learn all that much new. I like that season a lot more on second viewing, but it still comes across as a bit stale to me. I don't even remember the status quo changing much aside from Rainbow Dash and that season finale.

Guest October 8, 2017 Share October 8, 2017 I'm really looking forward to the new season, as for the movie, I was less than impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misty Shimmer 915 October 8, 2017 Share October 8, 2017 In the movie we saw some amazing character designs and world building I would certainly like more of it in the upcoming seasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunkfrank 1,125 October 8, 2017 Share October 8, 2017 Er, I think 7 changed quite a bit, Fluttershy with her sanctuary, Big Mac and Sugar Belles relationship, Pharynx, and then spoilers I won't go into. Season 7 provided on expanding the universe. Ever since season 4 the show has been changing, a lot, season 8 may or may not bring a big change but who knows really.

FirePuppy 739 October 8, 2017 Share October 8, 2017 (edited) I could continue annoying people about what I want next season, but just to be safe, all I'd like to say is that I only watch the show because I mostly care about Pinkie and Fluttershy nowadays. It's absolutely no longer that the others should get fewer appearances; I don't think that way anymore, I assure you; they can have anything what they want next season, as long as it's not an overwhelming number of unsuitable episodes, like ones where Applejack and Rarity visit a spa or Rainbow Dash pranking everypony. 5 hours ago, MegaSean45 said: The CMCs could even get their cutie marks finally, believe it or not!

Mesme Rize 15,692 October 8, 2017 Share October 8, 2017 I don't understand peoples need to change the theme of the show. Infact, Season 7 was actually my favorite season, after season 6 was very weak for me. If Season 8 is the same quality with the same good storys, i am fine. I don't need over the top nonstop action and long storyarcs to be entertained. My OC Mesme Rize: >https://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/mesme-rize-r8777 Thank you Randimaxis for this Wonderful Avatar. Please, don't be afraid to talk to me.

Spilight98 166 October 8, 2017 Share October 8, 2017 It would be nice to have some serious character development in season 8. We know next to nothing about Twilight's parents which I find odd after 7 seasons. Spike is still the little dragon he is. Come on already give him a growth spurt or something, We still don't know why Applejack's parents are dead. And there are plenty of other things to develop like Spike finally getting over her Rarity obsession. Let's hope some interesting stuff will happen next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly don't feel any of those things mean anything. Fluttershy went from taking care of animals to... taking care of animals, Pharynx adds basically nothing to the series, and Big Mac isn't even a main character. Then again, in general I'm more interested now in major changes to character dynamics and story structure than simply adding new elements. Hypothetically, the movie's release opens the show up to do something really weird, but I would be surprised. Just give a little experimentation and I'll be satisfied.

Season 7 also opened the map up to Starlight and Spike and potentially more ponies. Really the only major changes I can remember from season 6 were Dash is a wonderbolt, and Trixie being a new reoccuting character, and the changeling reformation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm talking about going really deep into developing the characters into ways we wouldn't expect! Like what if Pinkie's family are descendents of crystal ponies who escaped the empire before it disappeared? Just an example, I ain't saying it's true. Or is it?

Steve Piranha 29,496 October 8, 2017 Share October 8, 2017 While it is true S7 had a bigger worldbuilding compared to the last season, I think it's time take another big step on the status quo next season 1 Sig by Discords Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't expect it to follow rules. I'm probably exaggerating it in my mind, but I remember season 6 messing around with structure and setting a lot more. Season 7 doesn't have a mockumentary episode, is all I'm saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
