I still didn't like it. The plot is still dumb, the message is still pretty ham-fisted, and while the main characters aren't the Mane Six clones that I thought they were, I feel most of them are a bit one-note. Oh, and there's also the inconsistencies between G4 and G5.

But because I feel like I'm repeating myself, let's move onto the things I did like:

• Hitch. While I feel his character development was a bit rushed, at least he has character development.

Old Man Shepherd had taken Sunny and her friends to an ancient cavern, far from Maretime Bay.

Hitch: "Uh huh... There a reason we're out here?"

Izzy: "Is it a good reason? Like a secret candy stash? Ugh, two thousand year old candy! Gross!"

Shepherd: "Hang on... I know it was around here somewhere... Aha." He hits a control and a secret passageway slowly opens "There we go."

Sunny: "Oh wow! A secret door?!"

Greetings all, by necessity this will likely be short to avoid spoilers. But first! Some appropriate music (apologies I couldn't find this song with pony cover art).

Recently I've been thinking a lot about what's wrong with My Little Pony's newest generation. Or, well, about why I didn't like it, because different people value different things in art, and what is important to some others can easily ignore. And the first aspect I want to analyse is how "My Little Pony: A New Generation" tries to talk about politics and avoid it at the same time.

...and how cute she is! (Slight spoilers for MLP: A New Generation below, if you consider no-context screencaps spoilers.)

Before you guys get excited… NO. No, I am not planing on writing this story anytime soon. I’ve already got my hands tied with DragonHeart, Flame and Sword and The MystiKnight Chronicles. I do NOT have the time, not the energy, to write another little pony legend story.

However, just because I don’t write the actual story, doesn’t mean ideas don’t pop up every now and again. But having ideas isn’t the same as actually writing them. Or wanting to write them.

So, me and my wife watched My Little Pony: A New Generation just now. Part of me was dreading it was just going to be a complete mess that didn’t know what it was going to be as a sequel to a pop-culture phenomenon like Friendship is Magic, while the other part was hoping it’d somehow blow my mind away.

To my utter disappointment; it did neither.

The movie was just meh.

Don't believe me? Look at this leaked plot I shared in my previous blog:

You know what that means? Apart from a few funny moments, this movie's gonna suck! And I can't wait to riff the Tartarus out of it!

BTW, I read this list:

It has come to my attention that a picture book titled My Little Pony: A New Adventure, which is an adaptation of My Little Pony: A New Generation, has been leaked onto Tumblr:

We have G5 character tags, but no G5 series tag yet?

Yo, you have crack authors here (which may or may not be on actual crack) ready to get stories out! Snap to it, knighty!

So yeah, just wrapped up the watch party for A New Generation, and I've already got a short story in my head.

Sunny flipped a hoof through the pages of her notebook with an ever-widening grin on her face.

... Sort of.
I'm not exactly out of hiatus yet, but in the meantime I will be taking down "Dizzy for Izzy" for some major editing...mainly in terms of the flow of the story, minor narrative adjustments, the works.

Forgive me for the trouble...it will be back soon, I promise. Until then, Ta-ta!

P.S. Just saw the new MLP G5 movie...and I just gotta say,

I WANNA MARRY IZZY MOONBOW.🌕🎀

I am thinking about making a possible G5 Story. Butt with the usual Bendy themes.

Just keeping you updated.

Title: Return of the Booty

Description: A human sets out to find Sunny Starscout to bring back the magic. Turns out it's in the booty.

Hello, everyone! I promised a while back I’d discuss my thoughts on the recent MLP G5 movie, and at long last here it is. Naturally, I will be spoiling quite a lot, so do be sure to watch the movie itself before you read this review.

With all the preamble out of the way, let’sget into my review of My Little Pony: A New Generation.

STORY

So yes, I have seen My Little Pony: A New Generation. Saw it the day it dropped on Netflix and the only reason I haven't talked about it sooner is because lazy and busy, I guess.

I'm pretty sure this video will be worth watching just to hear me call the royal guard "Welsh carrots":

I, like most of you, have seen the preview for the upcoming film, My Little Pony: A New Generation. It stirred up some unexpected emotions in me.

The trailer is clever, well-polished, funny, and remarkably modern. It looks good. But it's not FIM. It never will be. It never can be.

I'm a month late to this, but here's my take on MLP: TNG (or whatever we're calling it). I was underwhelmed the first time I watched it, but I gave it a second chance, and it started to grow on me. I think my mistake was watching Raya and the Last Dragon just a few days before the G5 movie. Both movies have similar themes and plots, but they handle them differently. More on that later.

I really really hope that because her alicorn form in glowing and transparent is because it's fake and temporary.

If not then I'm pretty sure it's just writers probably going lazy and choosing a very easy route. They probably didn't want to create a whole arc/seasons of Sunny becoming worthy of becoming an alicorn so they just gave it to her.
