Unpopular opinion time (super alpha no pony edition)

@SeraphimDawn
 
has that character actually appeared now or is still an upcoming episode? potentially she can be a total derailment or fresh enough to boot timmy off his show (depending on the writing).

@OptimusPrimevil  
I think it’s in an upcoming season. I’ve heard the show has introduced quite a bit of permanent characters, especially in Timmy’s fairy crew. Cosmo and Wanda has a child, and a… talking fairy dog that knows “dog magic”.

@SeraphimDawn  
they keep screwing up their own continuity with those additions X_X

Inside out and the peanuts movie both suck.

@OptimusPrimevil  
I dunno. I’m actually quite curious where they’ll take this bold move. Remember, FOP is a show made to be episodic so kids can get into the show pretty much anytime without too much confusion.

@SeraphimDawn  
wait and see i guess (for one, why share? i’m sure there are a ton of fairies out there)

@OptimusPrimevil  
The character does look cute in design at least.

I always liked the Ewoks.
 
Also, just got out of The Force Awakens and I have to say, I didn’t like Kylo Ren’s characterization. I don’t know, he felt a little like a whiny teenager throwing temper tantrums. In fact, he reminded me of Anakin Skywalker from the prequels if he hadn’t become Darth Vader. But apart from that, I quite enjoyed the movie and hope to see where it goes from here.
 
@SeraphimDawn  
Brony fandom: has a bad name only because of the show being made for a younger audience  
SU fandom: has a bad name for driving someone to attempt suicide and being unrelenting afterwards  
Both: have a bad name for having Lily Peet involved with them.  
Also, I agree about SU’s character designs and animation. It just never interested me.
 
@Rpground  
SU just felt very generic. The animation is generic CN animation, the characters are ones we’ve seen thousands of times, the fight scenes are stolen from anime… bleh.

@Kirb  
Oh, then you’re gonna hate the songs.

@Kirb  

 
no offense but this is exactly the type when two opinions arise from the same thing that i keep talking about.
 
if you like it, it’s a homage.  
if you hate it, it’s a rip-off.
 
not saying you’re wrong though (your opinion), it’s just the opportunity arose for me to point out the difference between homage/rip-off (this is most evident in the two sets of trilogies in the star wars films. orig trilogy = homage to other movies, prequels = rip-offs of other movies)

@Background Pony #C4E7  
Poof might have been written off, I mean, he learned to speak…

@Virgil Stormblade  
I’ve already heard Steven rap… does it get worse than that? I mean, the theme song itself feels like a sped-up version of Creep by Radiohead, anyway.
 
@OptimusPrimevil  
Okay, fine, you got me. But I do find it kind of weird how nobody pays attention to my Star Wars related opinions, but everyone gets their panties in a knot when I criticize Steven Universe.

Climate change is all made up. :P

@Kirb  
Go look up the other songs. Like “Giant Woman”. Or hell, just look for Steven Universe songs and you’ll see just how bad they can get.

@Kirb  
Star wars has been on for far too long that some opinions have been said already?
 
honestly, I can’t recall your stance(s) on star wars. can you state some of them?
 
Personally, they’re enjoyable but not the pinnacle of human creativity/literature/entertainment some fans claim it to be.
 
Sooooooooo much drama on particular spoiler for the latest movie (like doing it is grounds for physical pain).

@OptimusPrimevil  
Huge fan. Loved the original trilogy, don’t mind George Lucas’s re-edits but just wish he’d release the originals to compare them to. TPM is my least favorite of the prequels, also always loved the Ewoks and I consider Kylo Ren to be the main bad thing about TFA.
 
Fair enough, but I still think they need to be watched in a film class. I went to a film class where they never showed or even talked about the original movie, despite it having been the highest grossing of all time for a while, and also being highly influential on other films and on the film world for a while. They showed us pretty much every highly important movie in film history (A Trip to the Moon, Casablanca, Metropolis, Citizen Kane, Vertigo, Jaws) but didn’t show us Star Wars. They even showed us an obscure 2013 documentary about sushi making, but they didn’t show us Star Wars. And I got the sense that the teacher didn’t like it, which is fine, but it’s still worth talking about in a film history class. That’s like having a music history class without talking about Elvis. (Of course, I was also in a music history class where we didn’t talk about Elvis, but that’s a different story.)
 
You mean this one? Soylent Green is people!!!!!

@Kirb  
like that but more whining and physical threats?
 
maybe they’re too mainstream/known(star wars/elvis) to be tackled?
 
 
another homage/rip-off that i know of is regular show’s super robot special. those who like it say it’s a tribute/homage to giant robots, those who hate it say it’s no nothing/culture americans trying to ape japanese genius.

@OptimusPrimevil  
No, that’s just the weaboos saying that.

The “scootachicken” meme is older than my Sega Genesis library.

@HighRollerHydra  
Scootachicken? Wait, is this based on that episode where the CMC were having a campout and Scootaloo was scared?

@HighRollerHydra  
how? i assume you got your genesis after that meme happened?
 
@Virgil Stormblade  
like i said, ‘if you like it, it’s a homage. if you don’t it’s a rip-off’.
 
much more noticeable in stuff that were inspired by and total copies of existing stuff (quentin tarantino’s been accused of that but fans are more on the ‘homage’ camp)

@Virgil Stormblade  
No, just that stupid “Scootaloo is a species of chicken” bullshit. Especially from that Background Pony who seems to be the result of inbreeding.
 
@OptimusPrimevil  
Sarcasm is lost on this one.

@HighRollerHydra  
……………………….What?

@HighRollerHydra  
no i mean, it’s plausible you’re just picking up on the genesis now (some gamers who weren’t old enough to be there when they appeared are collecting and playing the old systems now)

@Virgil Stormblade  
The ““Scootaloo is a chicken[](/tags/scootachicken) thing? When Apple Bloom called Scootaloo a chicken in Stare Master ‘cause she was scared? And people ran with it because “LOL Scootaloo can’t fly and a chicken is a kind of flightless bird so LOL”? Not to be confused with chickun.
