DivineMist1000 71,360 January 1, 2019 Share January 1, 2019 After seeing the first poster for the Sonic the Hedgehog movie and seeing how god awful and horrendous Sonic looks, how would you all react to the same "treatment" for the MLP series? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Tang 2,426 January 1, 2019 Share January 1, 2019 I always wanted to see how those little ponies will look like in our world As usual, "It has ponies in it, so I'm not going to complain." :3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sovereign Leader Rarity 12,006 January 1, 2019 Share January 1, 2019 (edited) I knew that this was going to enter discussion after that...perplexing teaser for the Sonic the Hedgehog movie. While I'm willing to give anything the benefit of the the doubt as far as movies go, given the track record of live action conversions of children's media in the past, I wouldn't be too hopeful to say the least. That said, it would take quite a special type of simpleton to butcher the movie on the same level that they are seemingly going to with Sonic.

Phosphor 11,529 January 1, 2019 Share January 1, 2019 I would give it a chance, but I generally do not like cgi or live action movies. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misty Shadow 7,901 January 1, 2019 Share January 1, 2019 I wouldn't be too optimistic going in to watch it, but I would still give it a fair shot. Live action/CGI movies based off of cartoons have the bad rap they have for a reason, but I feel that any movie can be good so long as the crew behind it cares for the quality of said movie. 2 https://www.deviantart.com/frank3dz/art/A-day-to-remember-1140892930 (seriously guys, read this comic, it's hilarious) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brony Number 42 10,069 January 1, 2019 Share January 1, 2019 Wow, I just watched the Sonic trailer. I would have thought it was a joke. Just as expected. Generic action stuff with a cg character crammed in. We've seen it a hundred times. Garbage. 1 This is my new signature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ganondorf8 11,316 January 1, 2019 Share January 1, 2019 Well, if the CGI is handled really well and they don't go over the top with other special effects, I'd be all for a live action MLP movie. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dashy 4 Ever 4,835 January 1, 2019 Share January 1, 2019 (edited) My reaction would be: (And yes, the Sonic movie is TRASH!

BornAgainBrony 2,397 January 2, 2019 Share January 2, 2019 (edited) Depends a lot on the who and the how. There are so many adaptations of cartoons where the CGI just looks atrocious, with a few gems that were surprisingly well-done. Personally I'd rather see what Jim Henson's Creature Shop could do with the idea. Were it a "Ponies on Earth" story though I wonder if the "Roger Rabbit" approach would be better than making everything look photorealistic?

Steve Piranha 29,425 January 2, 2019 Share January 2, 2019 (edited) Seeing how well some of the Pokémon looks in Detective Pikachu movie, I’m more open to the idea Then again, there’s the issue with interacting with humans. Pokémon works because it’s part of the source material already, but ponies not so much, and we’ve seen how they end most of the time Edited January 2, 2019 by Steve Piranha 1 Sig by Discords Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monsoon 1,662 January 2, 2019 Share January 2, 2019 I wouldn't have a lot of faith in it as CGI films are often janky and end up ruining the story for me to an extent, however if it's done in a good manner and has a compelling story while not butchering the characters with bad CGI, it probably wouldn't be terrible, I think it would be either really good or really bad overall 1 No Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plonkett 345 January 2, 2019 Share January 2, 2019 I'd think it'd be the stupidest thing ever. Also, it's more than likely the characters would be humans instead of ponies on Earth. Kinda like a live action version of Equestria Girls. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillerKingBakudan 702 January 2, 2019 Share January 2, 2019 Oh, hell no. The worst live-action movie based on a Hasbro property will always be any one of Michael Bay's Transformers flicks. The last thing we need is a live-action MLP movie making that guy's shit look like gold. 2 No questions asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sepul-Coloratura 762 January 3, 2019 Share January 3, 2019 (edited) If you see the list of every live action movies ever made based on cartoon shows, the possibility of being good is very low. Edited January 3, 2019 by Sepul-Coloratura 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin_Case001 4,891 January 4, 2019 Share January 4, 2019 Well, awhile back, I took a whack at making some really detailed, high quality 3D models of several of the ponies. I did a really good job on them if I do say so myself, but when I unveiled them, the responses were mostly "uncanny valley" this and "creepy" that, so... don't expect a live action/CGI pony movie to be well-received. Now, if they did it Roger Rabbit style, holy crap I could really get behind that! Why don't they try something like that again?! Just imagine Equestria being connected to the human world, like Equestria Girls, except it's the REAL real world, the live action world, and it'd be just like Toon Town in Roger Rabbit. All these 2-D Flash ponies running around in the real world--that'd be the tops, man. I mean, it would just be StormXF3's youtube channel on the big screen. That would be the greatest thing EVER!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaburoDaimando 1,196 January 5, 2019 Share January 5, 2019 I would rather it be directed by the same guy who did the BUmblebee Movie: Travis Knight. He did a great job with that movie, and I Think he would be perfect for a MLP movie. Mostly a movie that's focused on Princess Celestia. I talked about it in my blog about my idea for a Princess Celestia Live Action movie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cash In 22,352 January 6, 2019 Share January 6, 2019 I'd be willing to give it a chance, though it's something which would have to be handled very carefully. 2 At first I rejected the zero, but that was because I simply didn't understand it.

RulesofRarity 493 January 6, 2019 Share January 6, 2019 If MLP was owned by Disney this would already be in production. And I'd be annoyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
