I want to talk about something regarding Legend of Everfree. Does anybody else feel like there's something....sad about this movie? Inb4 "yeah that it exists cuz it sux" and etc etc, I mean a sort of melancholic feeling that I can't really describe while watching it, and certain scenes in particular....

Namely, the opening credits/song sequence, the scene where they release the floating lanterns into the sky, and the end credits/song sequence....every time I see these scenes in particular I feel a sense of melancholy and sadness come over me, and I can't quite figure out why, anybody else feel anything similar?
>>
Because they spent time, money, and effort into making four of these things that are basically unremarkable and without any lasting importance when something else could have been done?
>>
>>29169580
It feels boring, they are trying a slower pace, but aren't really conscious about it.
>>
>>29169580
It was really really boring compared to the other films.

>"Will you be lost to time or be part of history?"
>"Will your story be told or remain a mystery?"
>>
>>29169580
It is probably due to the more relaxed feel. It was a failed attempt to be more realistic.
>>
>>29169580
I know exactly how you feel, I actually get this feeling with all the movies. Might have something to do with how my high school days were nowhere near as happy
>>
>>29169580
Darkness inside me song does that to you.
>>
>>29169616
>Might have something to do with how my high school days were nowhere near as happy

I'm writing a fanfic that base on High School experience.
>>
>>29169580
I don't know.
Maybe it's a sense of the unknown. Maybe it's the overall darker coloring to the movie compared to the others.
It is a summer camp in the forest. They always feel a little dark.
But those songs do feel a bit 'ominous'

To me, I felt a slight feeling of 'emptyness' throughout the whole movie. Like it was missing something.
>>
>>29169616
My high school was pretty similar to Crystal Prep.

>>29169625
An EQG one? CHS is pretty idealistic.
>>
>>29169630
from a narrative prospective you nail it on the head.
>>
>>29169630
There wasn't any well built up conflict. The movie feels kind of lost as to how to tell a story.
>>
>>29169634
>Crystal Prep.
So a Catholic school?

>CHS is pretty idealistic.

The main character is hunted from both middle school and his old high school.
>>
>>29169630
Excitement
>>
>>29169652
Nah, it was an expensive private school. Everyone there was obsessed with their studies and athletics, we took that stuff seriously.
>>
>>29169653
Do you think that EQG have some dark moments like they did on the show?
>>
>>29169655
Is that a good or a bad thing?
>>
>>29169646
Yeah, they seemed more focused on the "twist ending" reveal of trying to convince you that Timber is the bad one than revealing that Gloriosa is rather than establish an antagonist early on like the other three.
We knew their antagonists from the first scenes.
We didn't know this one till the end.
>>
>>29169671
But didn't they have moments when someone freak out that's when Glorosa show up?

Seems obvious to me.
>>
>>29169580
I've never watched the full movie, but I know what you're talking about from those scenes alone.

The best way I could describe it is like this: it feels like mlp as a whole is coming to an end.

They've done this before in the series proper, where they have scenes that evoke the same kind of feeling and they always cause me to tear up a little.
>>
>>29169658
Twi got ptsd so hard almost went full dark phoenix
>>
>>29169658
Well the mane 6 sorta died in the opening scene in Scitwis dream. That's decently dark for a kids movie.
>>29169678
>But didn't they have moments when someone freak out that's when Glorosa show up?
I don't know what you mean. Can you reiterate that?
>>
>>29169580
The lanterns scene in particular, is probably because you've been conditioned to relate "releasing paper lanterns" with a memorial or regret sequence. It's a pretty common trope, and you've probably seen it enough for it to become unconsciously linked.
>>
>>29169699
I mean every time Glorosa show up her shadow takes a form of Gaia Everfree.
>>
>>29169699
>Can you reiterate that
Either they seen a shadow or sound of Gaia Everfree is just Glorosa.
>>
>>29169710
That was one time.
The twist ending didn't work on most of us since we saw spoilers weeks before it was released but I'm sure it worked on the intended audience.
>>
>>29169723
English isn't your first language, is it?

It's called foreshadowing.
>>
>>29169731
>spoilers weeks before it was released
You mean the book right?
>>
>>29169740
>foreshadowing
Then its not plot twist right?

The book and the Brazilian release a week before the Netflix release.
>>29169756
I don't know. Maybe. I didn't major on film production.
Go ask Ishi.
>>
>>29169782
Why Brazil?
>>
>>29169756
Are you Russian?

>>29169782
That pic reminds me of this.

>>29169788
The movie was shown in Brazil a week before the rest of the world got it. I don't know why Brazil though.
>>
It's probably because you subconsciously realize you're an adult and shouldn't be obsessing over shit for five year old girls.
>>
>>29169794
I think it's suppose to be reminiscent of Lindsey Stirling. A very famous violin player.

Did you like the song?
>>
>>29169596
this, it stings every time I hear it.

>>29169580
For me yes, but only because I desperately miss high school, Junior year I discovered ponies back in 2011, and it was the best time of my fucking life. Now almost 4 years later I'm a lonely NEET, no friends or accomplishments. I just want to go back to those days.
>>
>>29169842
Yup. I love Pentatonix.
>>
>>29169878
I meant this one.

>>29169794
>>
>>29169901
It is decent.
>>
>>29169658
Not any darker.
>>
>>29169655
I liked it a lot, I find a school like CHS insufferable.
>>
>>29169596
Yes that line in particular does something to me
>>
I really hate the Soundtrack for LoE. Don't get me wrong, all the songs are currently in my phone and plays on Loop, and Daniel did a fantastic job with all of them. Embrace the magic was kinda weak

But All the songs have a nice Light-Fantasy Theme going on with them, and instead we get this bizarre Mystery Movie set at Summer Camp.
>>
>>29170572
I liked the soundtrack, but that makes sense
>>
>>29170572
>Daniel did a fantastic job with all of them.
No he didn't. Otherwise I'd be able to remember the songs as much as S1 songs.
>>
>>29171633
Yeah, because you're the supreme judge right? My word is worth more than yours because I say so and because I'm a bigger MLP fan than you, and I remember every LoE song word for word and I've probably only seen the movie like 5 times since it came out

>>
>>29169580
For me it was kind of depressing if anything, back in my days the high school was a nightmare I couldn't wake up from. I like EqG and School Animu in general because it gives me something I never had, an idea of how it is to be a normal teenager and have fun, romances and nights out.

Now if you excuse me, gotta take my antidepressants and cry myself to sleep.

i hated school. i hated my classmates. i hated their cliques. i hated our functions. and above all i hated myself. i didn't go to prom. i didn't attend any rallies i wasn't forced to be at. hate. hate. i hate these memories. i still hate myself. but i love facebook because i can spy on all those fuckers and take delight in the few whose lives have turned to shit through misfortune or ignorance. hate. hate. hate.
