What if G5 gets pushed back?

[FirePuppy 739]

Far as I understand it, My Little Pony G5 is going to be distributed by Paramount, and is currently scheduled for release on September 24, 2021, which is currently 19 months from now. But, what you all also should know is that Paramount Animation has pushed back a LOT of their films to later dates, such as:

Monster Trucks (May 29, 2015 -> March 18, 2016 -> January 13, 2017)

Sherlock Gnomes (January 12, 2018 -> March 23, 2018)

SpongeBob 3: Sponge on the Run (February 8, 2019 -> August 2, 2019 -> May 22, 2020)

Monster on the Hill / Rumble (July 31, 2020 -> January 29, 2021)

Even Wonder Park once moved up to 2018, but ended up released in 2019 instead.

 

So it's possible that My Little Pony G5 may end up getting a 2022 release, seeing as though a majority of Paramount Animation's films hit theaters three or more years after they are first announced.

I just want to know what G5 is targeting. FIM was pretty much recognizing the Bronies at the end. What if G5 will not? Do we have a future? Etc...

 

Are we waiting for a TV series, or a toy line? Why is it so difficult to create a new TV series? I have too many questions.

However much time they need to take to make sure it's good quality is fine with me! I'm excited to see what they do with G5.

There's an additional factor here. Hasbro bought eOne (a TV and film production and distribution company) in December and announced that it's going to be consolidating all their media stuff under eOne's umbrella. This is likely throwing a curveball into all current and future MLP animation plans. They're not an animation studio, but anything that hasn't released yet is likely being messed with at the management level.

G5 getting pushed back would be pretty annoying, I will say, but I'd rather it be pushed back than it become the G 3.5 babies disaster all over again.

I might be mildly annoyed at first if they end up pushing it back more than a few months, but if it ends up being in high quality for both the animation and writing, I'm sure it will be worth it.

Under current trends of Paramount Animation's films, they'll most possibly push back My Little Pony G5 to a date range between December 3, 2021 and April 29, 2022 by this summer, around July through September of this year.

G5 DID get pushed back . It was originally planned to be released this year according to the 2017 leak

Than the apocalypse will strike, look Its already started 

 As long as it will be good, I don't mind if they push it a back few months.

I don't care if it comes out at 2033 as long as it's good quality, if I'm still alive then. Of course nothing can take that much time for production as long as there is't any major problems, or the franchise is forgotten. (Duke Nukem Forever)

I think 3 years is maximum for a legit production time. I don't want them rushing it or even thinking too much about the release time itself, jusy making it good be the number one priority please.

I just want to see the plot details and the first working title. They should appear within this year; otherwise, we're gonna have to expect a release date push-back.

For me, It's the opposite when waiting for the production that I especially look forward to. For example, I don't even watch the trailers when I know I'm going to watch the movie. I get that people look for the plot details, working titles, early accessible informations when they care so much, but I just want to know all that when the first episode releases and digest it while enjoying the show. I don't want to know what characters are in the show, how they look like, what the premise is, I just want to discover that by watching the first episode of G5. Assuming the team is doing well, I don't want to bother anything and let them do their job. I don't want to know the art style, anything.

I hope it doesn't get pushed back, that would be frustrating.
