starlight glimmer wasn't a mary sue in the finale. you should probably ignore most of what /mlp/ says.

Point conceded. Upon further review, Glim was the "only sane man" trope instead.

the only part that bothered me about the finale was that it was literally called 'shadow play' and there wasn't even a song.

when i saw the title in a leaked episode list i fucking hoped man. just throw me a bone.

bronies became a thing when a group of people ran into some juggalos and said "how can we be even worse than these guys"

The "big bad" wasn't even plot-relevant. At all.
Also it all came off as a knockoff of Marvel's Onslaught saga from the mid 90s, compressed into about 88 minutes.

I seem to be too drunk for simple math. Sorry about that.

We know that TC is a closet brony, so post more ponies.

I, uh, actually found the finale entertaining, for what it is. The fanrage seems to be a very vocal minority.

Haven't seen the movie. Will do so when it pops up on netflix, probably around february.

i loved it. tomorrow's episode was really good too. is? will be?

If tomorrow is "Secrets and Pies", it's actually a bit cringey, for MLP.

no way. it was a deep lore episode.

...explain this to me again when I'm sober, please.

I'm pretty embarrassed. I stared at the picture for a good 60 seconds trying to find something really wrong. I totally expected them all to be a lot fatter and even more lame and cringe-beardy. Then I kinda realized OP was going for the fact there's no little girls.. pretty sad lol.

okay. have some strabismus horse.

To be fair, thirty-something foreveralones are the only people who can afford to go to the cinema these days.

Is this the reason they're so dead now? Man, I remember when it was damn near impossible to get into a movie on opening night. Now theaters are dead. Kinda sad.

I really think so, yes.

The industry killed itself by overpricing, and ended up utterly gutted by pirates and patience.
Piratebay has shitty cams and even 4k (sometimes 8k) leaks a week ahead of time now, and the DVD window is down to a couple months in some instances.

I live in NYC. Theatres cost $25 for iMAX for 1 adult. Don't know about kids prices. I usually buy matinee showings, which are $17. Plus I buy via the internet so that's $2.25 service fee. In total $19.44.

Source: I bought a ticket to see Blade Runner this Sunday.


Summary

Subtotal: $19.44

Total Amount: $19.44

this was a strategy discussion on /mlp/ by some, in order to avoid having to actually say 'one for my little pony, please.'

i asked for my ticket like a man

lol don't kid yourself. You're watching a cartoon made for 7 year old girls x'D. What a joke hahaha.

On a serious note though, there really isn't anyone in the theatres for MLP (according to a user earlier in the topic that actually went)

I live in Kansas City. Just showing up and buying a ticket is eleven or twelve bucks. All the crappy cheap theaters got bought out or disappeared.
I'm surprised The Twin in Independence still exists. It may well be the last drive-in there is.

Which is sad to be honest. You can say the same thing for shopping malls. When I was a kid, it was so much fun going to the mall cause there were so many people. Nowadays, everyone and their mother is buying stuff online. The malls are worse than going to a hollowed out Walmart.
I don't get online shopping for clothes though. I just don't want the hassle of returning stuff that doesn't fit me but since malls are closing and Macy is having fewer and fewer selection of clothes, really don't know what to do.
One time I went into Macys to get a hat. Nothing too fancy, just a hat. I walked through the whole Men's floor to find only 2 hats which were collecting dust. Target has more generic brands of clothing but who would want that.
Kind of a rant but I miss the late 90s days. Everything seems to be bright and business was booming all around. Nowadays, people are stuck in their phones and everything is god damn expensive.

Yes.

Also yes.

Macy's is actually still around, somehow.
I don't expect to be, for much longer. They charge way too much for the same Chinese or Bangladeshi crap Walmart sells for cheap.

btw I posted some of the responses from this topic on Reddit. It's front page now in a certain subreddit, lol

isn't everything from China, etc? Walmart doesn't have brands though? Then again, I don't shop at Walmart so I won't know.

How is that even possible?
Are you in Europe or Israel or something?

It is so sad to see people being so insecure about their masculinity so they must attack people that got no problems watching a little girls cartoon.

better than Rick and Morty fans, honestly

so basically people that watch My Little Pony and boasting about it immediately equates to someone that is the definition of manliness?

Do you think parents of little girls shaking their heads at bronies are lacking in 'masculinity' as well? I mean you used that word so, hahahahahaha
