Equestria Girls is just a mundane world with mundane characters

So, Earth?
Isn't that any TV show ever? They use things that aren't real or don't exist to spice up our world and make it better?
Is EG a story about how our media is saturated with TV shows all built on the impossible rather than focusing on what we have and what makes Earth great?

Name me a heavy action or heavy comedic cartoon that is as mundane as EQG.

>>28802389
for something made specifically to shill dolls based off of pony dolls, it's alright.

I still like the show made to shill the pony dolls better.

>>28802422
Most shows don't try to portray their world as subdued as EQG does unless they are aiming for realism.

>Mundane

>>28802500
Anytime magic isn't shown or being talked about it is extremely mundane.

It sucks that's half of Friendship Games and Legend of Everfree.

>>28802508
It is probably because neither film introduces an interesting conflict until half way through.

>>28802508
That's the exact same as the show.

>>28802533
The characters are depth and have better characterization. The EQG equivalents are subdued.

>Muh complex kids show

>>28802575
Oh not complex, just not subdued. There are only a handful of times that the characters do anything interesting that doesn't involve magic.

Apocalypse Now is just a mundane world with mundane characters that is only made interesting when it brings in something from another part of the same mundane world with similarly mundane characters.

>>28802611
That doesn't necessarily make it bad in concept, but it doesn't give it a lot to work with.

Apocalypse Now is one story VS a collection of stories set in a world.

>>28802389
Writers have no creativity or Hasbro won't let them.

>>28802676
Hasbro watches EG closer than FiM since it's such a new concept for them.
Hasbro has forced a lot of changes on EG. Without Hasbro breathing down the writers and directors necks, we would have much better movies. FG was a million times better in the first draft before Hasbro came through with a wrecking ball.

>>28802706
Yeah true.

>>28802389
It is just corporate cash grab trash.

>>28802706
How is this a new concept? They have done shows like this before, such as Jem.

>>28802807
They probably didn't trust it since they managed to mangle that franchise to the point where it was unwatchable.

>>28802389
Pretty much.

EQG Rarity makes it okay though, she's perfect.

Except on taco Tuesdays!

She's insufferable to listen to though.
