Literally how, HOW is he wrong?

This show being enjoyable to us was always a privilege, not a right.

Stop blaming him for shattering your delicate worldview where you're somehow entitled to more enjoyment from the show than little girls are. As long as it's comprehensible and enjoyable to them, which every episode has been, that's literally ALL that matters.

>"b-but muh episode 100 with fan characters!!"
Doesn't matter to little girls, plot was basic enough to understand and they could care less where those characters came from.

I think most here would just like some consistency. It really should not be that hard. You watch the show and try not to say something in direct conflict with something you said before. It's fiction 101. Sure a slip up here and there is understandable, but they literally do not care. It's killed all fan speculation this show could have possibly had.

NO HE'S A WRONG KEK AND HIM AND VOGEL AND MCCARTHY RUINED THE SHOW
THEY KILLED TWILIGHT AND RAPED HER CORPSE AND NOW THERE IS A FUCKING ROBOT WITH WINGS INSTEAD OF MUH TWIFU!!!!!!!!

AND THEY KILLED LUNA LUNA FROM S1E2 WAS THE ONLY TRUE LUNA!!!!!!!!!! THE SHIT THAT WE HAVE NOW IS UTTER GARBAGE I'M TELLING YA!!!! SHE SHOULD'VE BEEN FLUTTERSHY 2.0 SO THAT I COULD FEEL SUPERIOR TO HER AND WRITE FANFICTION WHERE I RAPE HER BUT NOOO HASBRO FUCKING HATES ME

AND THEY KILLED DISCORD DISCORD MADE CHOCOLATE RAIN THAT WAS AWESOME AND WACKY AND CHAOTIC AND ANARCHIC JOKER TIER LEVEL OF CHAOS REALLY MADE ME THINK OF SOCIETY BUT NOW HES A GOOD GUY AND HE'S SOCIALLY AWKWARD AND IT'S

NOT

COOL

IT MAKES ME FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE!!!!

ALSO S1 HAD SOME TERRIFIC MATURE THEMES LIKE
>APPLEJACK IS WORKING TOO MUCH AND NOT SLEEPING
THIS WAS SHAKESPEAREAN DEPTH. I LEARNED A LOT FROM THIS EPISODUS AND NOW I DON'T WORK AT ALL, I DON'T HAVE A JOB AND LIVE IN MY MOMMAS BASEMENT
>PINKIE PIE KNOWS HOW TO DEFEAT PARASPRITES BUT NOBODY LISTENS TO HER BECAUSE SHE TALKS WEIRD
THIS IS RELATABLE BECAUSE THAT'S THE SAME FOR ME PEOPLE OFTEN DON'T GET MY MESSAGES BECAUSE I'M SO MUCH SMARTER THAN THEM.
>RARITY IS WHINING A LOT AND THAT HELPS HER DEFEAT DIAMOND DOGS
THIS WAS A VERY RELATABLE LESSON FOR ME. NOW WHENEVER I ENCOUNTER A PROBLEM I START WHINING. REEEEEEE. REEEEEEE. THE SHOW IS RUINED.

>>29951705
the show hasnt always been built around world building and consistency. people just wrote whatever they wanted in the early seasons and now the people coming in have to take this mess and make something consistent out of it. there was never a grand plan. there was only the skeleton of a show bible.

im not sure how many people here have ever done a colab creative project, but unless theres a head master with the final say then everyone on the team will want their vision to be the only one. she ended up leaving. were awfully lucky things have turned out as uniform as they have.

He wasn't wrong.

That said, I do find it somewhat disappointing where things ended up going.

As another anon mentioned, consistency would be a good thing in itself - even kids may see a re-run and remember where something later paid off in the future. I also wish they tried to get a hold on what magic can and cannot do much earlier instead of making it as good as the plot demands.

The closest thing we had to an overarching plot was the Key Quest, which while it was good in itself, amounted to practically nil for the mane 5, and an incredibly outlandish, offensive castle.

AJ, Ponk, and Fluttershy have almost 0 motivation to do anything more than go about their day-to-day. Rarity and Dash have had their arcs at least. Now those are pretty much at their limit beyond their day-to-day after achieving what they've always wanted.

Twilight's was dictated by corporate meddling and seemed completely unnecessary in the grand scale of things. Being an alicorn granted her on actual political power beyond racial privelage as she rules no one. Her teacher role has been subverted by Glimmer being an extremely quick learner (and being an alicorn wouldn't even be necessary for that)

Things like the Everfree and the Castle there, more on Zebras, Diamond Dogs, Minotaur, and so on are left up to the imagination. It feels like there's so many seeds that were planted that could possibly bloom into something neat and relevant that can be appeasing to both adults and kids alike.

.....Then we get stuff like the changeling reform and glimmer's 180 and backstory that make me question if such things are better left to the fandom

I honestly want to know if there are morons who actually compare FiM and Breaking Bad, or Big Jim is over reacting about fans comparing episodes from earlier seasons and recent seasons.

Personally, I think the show's writing were predictable and easy to digest since S1, but there were charms and moments where even parents watching the show with their kids would stop and think "That's not bad for a kids show." in earlier seasons.

I just hate it when Big Jim tweets about the show like he's the only one that made it and he's the only one who knows what's best for the show when clearly he's not.

No one is complaining about the show not being deep enough, because people who never liked it isn't still watching it seven fucking years later after its premiere. The complaints, or the real complaints at least, are always about the show becoming increasingly stupid lately, with forced conflicts, retarded characterizations, and such. And it's to be expected when the writers are being continuously replaced and no one cares enough to supervise that the new episodes are consistent with the old ones.

To deal with these criticisms, Jim moves the goalposts and pretends that the complaints are about the show as a whole. "It's simple because it's for little girls!" So it was six years ago, and then it wasn't a problem. It's a problem now because of this "if it's for little girls, it doesn't need to be good" stupid mentality had led to zero effort writing. The problems with the show can't be fixed if the people who should fix them pretend that they don't exist.

Although I have to admit that I blame Haber for the huge quality drop in season 6, I think he failed miserably as story editor. So far, I'm slightly more optimistic about season 7 knowing that the Lady Writers are taking his spot. The fact that A Flurry of Emotions didn't rely on cringe humor like half of season 6 did is a reason enough to think that maybe this season won't be so fucking terrible as season 6 was.

Bronies have been spoiled within the last several years ever since the show introduced more than Slice of Life and it is sad we cannot enjoy such a cartoon with the main genre. Adventures are fun, but I am glad they aren't trying to distance themselves from what the show actually perceives.

Jim is not in the wrong here, but what do he expect with a fandom full of overgrown adults?

Literally everything from earlier seasons was predictable as fuck. The only two episodes that managed to surprise me came from season 5.
>>
>>29951643
He's not wrong, he just worded it poorly because he was butthurt or something. The show was, is and will be kids first. The kids need to like and understand the show, and only then you can add something extra for the parents. Jokes, references, a wink here and a nudge there. If you make an episode too sophisticated so that it flies over the kids heads, you've failed in your job as a writer for a kids show.
Then again, people who think that only the later seasons are too predictable are hallucinating. Either they were dumb 15 year olds when the show first aired (which sadly happens often), or they're delusional. The show has always been predictable.

That's not what I'm mad about. I'm mad about pointless references for no good reason. The defining aspect of S1 was that they were little magic horses in little magic horse land, the lore was self-contained, Equestria was its own world. And I loved that. Now it's pop culture references in every episode and 'lol it's a cartoon, little girls won't get it :^)' but I FUCKING DO AND I HATE IT, YOU'RE ACHIEVING THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF WHAT YOU INTEND YOU FUCKING HACK

If you were brought into this world and raised knowing nothing else, there's not a lot for you to compare to. May as well have Puppet Pals on every station if the quality is going to remain the same.

As I said, it's from a public BABScon panel. Here, I looked it up for you:
https://youtu.be/kTHVr86NIOw&t=1964
32:44–36:12
The moderator kicks off the question about the work schedule and being separated from the creative team ultimately being too much for her, Lauren confirms this. After some shilling for the current show from the moderator, Lauren then pretty much says that she achieved everything she wanted with S1 and "most of season 2" and feels "very fortunate".

So from this we can gather that the main reason she left was the insane workload and that she was very satisfied with what she got to do with the show during the time she was there. Nothing about corporate meddling being a problem, rather corporate neglect of decent work conditions.
>>
>>29954268

>forgets what the show was really like
>confuses head canon and fanon with stuff that happened.

There's also the fan of the fandom normies who start watching the show way late only to find they invested all this time and energy in a fandom for a kid's show they don't even like. Like that crazy bitch who relentlessly harassed Amy Keating Rogers for Flutterguy after she had already left the show.
>>
>>29956339
Fair enough, I didn't think of that, and it makes sense. Plus, last year they made that Game of Thrones promo, so it could attract (or attract back) people with the wrong expectations. If that's the case, Jim is right here and he's getting shit for the wrong reasons.

Then again, even if Jim isn't "moving the goalposts" and he's actually responding to stupid criticisms with honesty, it's not much of a relief to think that they aren't ignoring the real criticisms, it's just that they can't see them because they end up lost under a pile of complaints from clueless idiots who do want to see Breaking Bad in My Little Pony.

Not really. Faust also made the show for girls first. She tried to make it so that the whole family could enjoy it, but the main focus, i.e. the plots, were to be simple enough for girls. Jim is not saying they do that differently, in fact he's saying he's happy older people still enjoy it, but that it's not primarily for them, echoing Lauren's vision. Don't forget that he here is complaining about people expecting the plots to be more complicated and 'mature', which they never were, even under Lauren. They always were predictable.

Reading this thread is like watching anti-smark faggots complain about smarks ruining WWE.

WWE isn't shit because "FUCK ROMAN, NOT MUH INDIE DARLINGS", it's shit because they can't actually hold together a compelling program worth a damn. They cram the same baloney, half-ass writing down everyone's throats and push all the wrong characters who sully the quality of the programming.

The same is true here. Anyone arguing otherwise is retarded. No one wants an "adult show", they want a show that actually feels like it was made by people who give a shit about what they're writing. MLP could have been one of the best cartoons in the 2000s and beyond but it's wasted its potential by having directors with their head up their asses about what should and shouldn't be in a kids show. The characters and setting are bang-up, it's the plotting and consistency that are all out of whack.

Unfortunately it's unsalvageable now. The standard has already been set by years of fucking up and contradiction. It doesn't mean its bad, necessarily, but the chance for the show to be all it could be has long since passed.
>>
>>29954624
I'm neither of those anons but what bothers me the most about consistency (and the show in general) is the fact that the show has no idea what time period or setting it takes place in. Half the time it's a medival fantasy and the other half of the time it's modern day. That and characters just going back to how they used to be after an episode instead of really developing too much.

It's a fusion of the two, like many of the recent Final Fantasy games. The world is filled with magic and some of that magic has been engineered into magitek; the fusion of magic and technology. This is what makes the setting so malleable and why fanfic of the show runs the gamut of genres, including sci-fi. Clarke's Third Law states that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." However, the inverse can also be true; "any sufficiently analyzed magic is indistinguishable from technology."
>>
>>29958821
Uh, Magitek was in FF6 already.
>>
>>29958842
Well it's more blatant in the more recent games. FF15 is basically our world with fictional nations, magic and fantastic beasts running around and coexisting with modern cars, smartphones and flat-screen TVs.

He's not wrong, I guess, but with the previous show creators did not think like he does; with this attitude the show will never be "suprisingly better than a children's cartoon" anymore.

Fucking Big Jim

I love the show, even in its state, but holy fuck, this is literally "It's supposed to be simple"

Fuck off, the show itself has tackled the issue of abbandoment pretty harshly and realistically in Ammending Fences where Twilight basically entirely ruins a life of her friend for not giving her the confidence to believe she is worthy of friendship.

She literalyl fucked up all her life, her house and the way she looks is a perfect showcase of depression.

This "it's simple cuz children" sounds like to me like an excuse for poor writting or plot holes.
>>
>>29951643
Litteraly the only difference between the average little girl and us is little girls do not care if the ending is shit as long as the journey to it is ok.
>>
>>29960896
Besides, twelve years old can understand more complex things.

Also kek, to try and tell me that Breaking Bad is somehow "sophisticated, using it as if it was the most well written show ever is rich.

>>
>>29960893
>>bronies whine that the show shouldn't be aimed at little girls
No we don't. We're saying that shows aimed at little girls can and should have good writing. When MLP:FiM was envisioned, this is the point it set out to prove, and it proved that point fairly well.
>>
>>29960921
Did you even read my post?

I m not fucking asking for epic anime stories, I prefer my splice of life stories, I always did, but rather than being silly they could be more emotional

I mean, that is why S5 was one of the best seasons, it was very emotionally filled, it was pretty powerful,

I want good writting, character development, I want feels, I want laughs

There is no FOR KIDS/FOR ADULTS

There is only good writing and shit writing. Shitty writers will make the claim that "it's meant for kids", which is a terrible excuse for shitty writing. It propagates the idea that children are too retarded to recognize the difference between good and bad writing, which is a load of horse shit.

Keep fucking beating on that MUH DEEP LORE strawman. You have no argument. Even Lauren Faust herself said she is tired of bad cartoon writers claiming they produce trash because it's just for children anyway. There's no reason to set the bar low, unless you literally cannot do better.

Are you going to keep slinging buzz words or actually explain what you find "shitty" about the writing?

Exactly, dumbass. That's why I want more episodes like "flurry of emotions". That was just adorable fluff and that's all I want from my ponies.
>>

How is that any better for kids?

>>29960941
>implying
He's telling y'all to shut the fuck up and stop badgering him about why the show isn't darker and edgier.

And he's right. It shouldn't be dark and edgy. He's not saying that means shit writing. He means "my little pony" should be "my little pony"
>>
>>29960956
>I want more episodes like "flurry of emotions"
I'd rather have only episodes like Flurry of Emotions than more stupid episodes cringe drama like Flutter Brutter again. It still doesn't change the point. "Flutter Brutter was written like shit." "Well, the show is for little girls, it doesn't matter if it's shit!" That's kinda the point here, if they fuck up and they don't care because "quality" isn't important, that's a problem.
>>
>>29960967

That has literally nothing to do with writing.
>>
>>29960975
It has everything to do with writing. The first season was painfully juvenile.
>>
>>29960978

And yet the writing was in several cases better than that of some TV shows aimed at adult audiences.

You fundamentally misunderstand what quality means.
>>
>>29960978
It was lighthearted. There were serious episodes that dealt with big threats, and there were silly episodes that dealt with everyday things. That doesn't affect the quality of the writing.

Flutter Brutter is one of the best episodes of S6. It tackles a mature problem, introduces a compelling character and actually showcases Fluttershy's development. What of this exactly is 'cringe drama'? If you want your Fluttershy episodes to be all 'she needs to learn how to be assertive FOR THE 1000th TIME' like before then I'm tempted to say you might have shit taste.

Because the writing was way better in S1. Meghan writing Pinkie's crisis, for example, was infinitely better than Rapp writing Zephyr's crisis. Meghan was an experienced writer, Rapp is a fucking idiot with no experience. "It doesn't matter, it's for little girls, it doesn't have to be good!" Well, give me simple episodes then, that would be better than half-assed attempts at drama.

The post I was replying to literally asks about s1 and s6. I'm not saying that s1 was the only good season, Amending Fences was brilliant and it was in s5.
>>
>>29961225
Okay anon. I'll explain to you. You see, the buffalo wanted to attack the town so the ponies decided to defend themselves. As such, they made easy-to-make projectile weapons that, as you can see in the episode, are quite effective. They also provide the resolution; the chief gets hit, you see, and that allows him to taste the pie and allow the two sides to come up with a compromise - that they can use the stomping ground if the ponies can provide them with pies.

I'm sorry that that was confusing to you when you watched it. Hopefully if you see it again you'll be able to follow it this time. Maybe you'll even to find a sense of humour and chuckle at it like a normal person.

Oh I agree anon, Party Pooped was a masterpiece of serious character writing. That scene of Pinkie's friends finding out she has an underground cave under Sugarcube Corner where she keeps tabs on literally everyone was very realistic and not at all contrived or retarded. That quesadilla joke was a brilliant bit of character writing and completely unzany. And that resolution to Pinkie's trek where she springs back to Ponyville in a cartoony fashion (after meeting a bunch of old characters and the Beatles) truly touched my heart. You're completely right to use that episode as a case for good resolutions, it wasn't lazy and full of shit jokes at all.

>. That scene of Pinkie's friends finding out she has an underground cave under Sugarcube Corner where she keeps tabs on literally everyone was very realistic and not at all contrived or retarded.

How is this unrealistic in a bit, we are talking about Pinkie, she knows every one in Ponyville, this has been established seasons ago and she does her best to have birthday for everyone in Ponyville, she is caring of Ponyville's ponies.
You dumb cunt.

She is a party pony of Ponyville, this just showcases to us how much she cares.

The Beatles joke was a quick thrown in gag, which didn't even last that long, guess what, it wasn't the resolution of the episode as in Over A Barrel.
Also guess what, everyone in Party Pooped is in character meanwhile in Over A Barrel Pinkie is at her worst, being the annoying character without any sense of what is going, acting like a retarded monkey, just like you right now.

The resolution was done entirely by Pinkie with a good argument which prevented a war in Party Pooped, her suddenly ending back at Ponyville with a gag was done to showcase that in the end Pinkie's journey wasn't sucesfull.

Pinkie's crisis was literally forgetting about her fucking birthday. This is not relatable in any way, because real life people do not fucking do that.
Zephyr's crisis on the other hand is much more realistic and comes from a very relatable problem of apathy induced by your own laziness. This is much more mature than a pony forgetting about her own birthday. If anything, the latter looks like it came from a little girls' show.

Pinkie doesn't need a bunch of secret filing cabinets in a super secret underground lair to keep tabs on her friends you pustle. They actually cheapen her by making her "caring" about her friends look like a 9-5 thing where she files away info on her friends, taking it out when she needs to remember their names or mane colours. The impression for the longest time was that she was just really good at remembering everything about everyone, because that's what social people do, and she was really fucking good at it because that's her talent.

The difference in Over a Barrel and Party Pooped is that Over a Barrel is just a dumb fun episode full of dumb jokes whereas Party Pooped has the pretension of being emotional despite being full of dumber jokes. It's hard to care about anything deeply when the events of the episode are so contrived and dumb that they break suspension of disbelief but then I guess autistic fucks like you are attracted to simplistic and dumb shit so it all makes sense.
>>
>>29961374
>Zephyr's crisis on the other hand is much more realistic
Yeah, because people who don't have their dream jobs is because they haven't tried. They just need to sing a song and everything is magically solved. Much realistic, so relatable.
>the latter looks like it came from a little girls' show
WHICH IT IS. I was watching a good written little girls' show. Now it's a show with "mature" and "relatable" plots written like shit with completely retarded resolutions because, oh, shit, they can't give depth to those stupids plots because it's still a little girls' show, so we end up with abominations like Flutter Brutter.

Why is that even a problem? I never had that impression (read: headcanon).
Pinkie might be capable of whatever fuckery, but she still has her weaknesses as a character, and she's bound to forgetting things too. Party of One was about that exactly. That's natural.

I guess you'd like it better if the episode went full edge and he ended up a hobo on the streets of Canterlot slowly dying out of starvation and the last shot was his body lying in a puddle of his own vomit?
The ironic thing is that you claim Zephyr to be hateable, yet you follow his exact logic of excuses:
>Yeah, because people who don't have their dream jobs is because they haven't tried.
Do you know how fucking much I hear it from different people? Hell, I myself don't have my dream job because where I live its income is pretty low. But that's not an excuse to turn into an infantile lazy piece of trash and blame the system for everything and not try to get at least some kind of a job.
The problem of not being able to fullfill your dreams because of something you cannot change does exist, yes. But it is too complicated of a problem for a show like MLP, that's why it doesn't tackle it.
However, if you didn't know, the problem of being so sure that you'll fail that you don't even wanna try also exists in real life, and it existed for me, too. And this is something MLP can handle. Singing a song was equal to a training montage, it's not meant to be taken literally. The point was that you should at least try.

holofan is fat, balding and a sex offender who also likes whatever Hasbro tell him to support

Where do you get that from?

Maybe I'd like to see an episode like that in a different show, but certainly not here, because I never wanted to see him at all to begin with.
>it is too complicated of a problem for a show like MLP, that's why it doesn't tackle it
Then the problem with the episode is that, ignoring part of the reality because it's "too complicated", it literally sends the message "if you haven't succeeded, it's because you haven't tried." If it doesn't bother you to get that stupid message from a little girls' show no less, then clearly you haven't heard it enough.
>You did say a 'hateable character' as if it's a bad thing.
Zephyr being a hateable character is a bad thing, because it's bad writing. He's hateable only because a flawed episode needs him to be hateable, because they would be unable to deliver the half-assed moral if he was adorable and everyone loved him. Not all the hateable characters are bad writing.

Do you realize that every single episode tackling on every single topic of every single show ignores SOME part of reality, right? It's impossible to be fully objective.
And no, this is not the message it sends, this is the message your biased mind wants to see in it. This episode delves around ONE specific situation, sending a message that you should at least try instead of whining to no end. If you tried and it didn't work out, that's a different situation entirely and you might be not to blame. But if you never tried at all, then you definitely are to blame.
Your complaint can be applied to every single work of fiction that encourages trying anything at all because there's always a possibility that you'll fail, and by that logic the message of every single work of fiction that encourages trying anything at all can be dismissed as 'if you haven't succeeded, it's because you havent't tried'.
>a flawed episode needs him to be hateable, because they would be unable to deliver the half-assed moral if he was adorable and everyone loved him
This, too, could be applied to 95% of antagonists in 95% of works ever. "Why is the character that's supposed to be in the wrong, is, in fact, in the wrong????"

It is. You're assuming that "the message it sends" is always "the message it's supposed to send", but that only happens when an episode isn't fucking shit. Do you think that the message that What About Discord? actually sends is the message that it was supposed to send?
>"Why is the character that's supposed to be in the wrong, is, in fact, in the wrong????"
Anon, for fuck's sake, that's not what I'm saying at all. A hateable character and a character in the wrong are two completely different things. Of course all the characters who are supposed to learn something are in the wrong, but that doesn't make them immediately hateables. I mean, would you say that Moondancer was hateable? Because I certainly wouldn't say it.

Once again, it's your subjective biased view that could just as well be applied to anything that encourages trying. Would you say the same about Rocky, Karate Kid or anything like that?
>Do you think that the message that What About Discord? actually sends is the message that it was supposed to send?
Yes, it was relatable for me too and I think it's one of the subtler moments of Discord being smart.

So why can't you make a character hateable AND in the wrong? Different types of people exist.
Plus, quite frankly, people acting like Zephyr are usually quite annoying and insufferable.

My subjective biased view is applied to this episode because this episode does a fucking terrible job at sending the message. Anyway, let me go with this.
>Yes, it was relatable for me too and I think it's one of the subtler moments of Discord being smart.
Now ask literally anyone on this board what was the message of the episode, I'll be surprised if you find two people who agree with you about what was the message that the episode sent. It sent a message for you because it was relatable for you. Your subjective biased way assumes that the episode successfully transmits the message that you recognize as the episode's intention, but that doesn't mean that the episode actually sent that message. To be hones, I'd say that What About Discord? didn't send any message at all.
Wait, hell, I forgot the classic example, what about the message of Feeling Pinkie Keen? If you asked in any thread, half of the people would say you that the message of the episode was something completely unrelated to the real message of the episode. That's my point, the message an episode sends isn't always the episode it's supposed to send. And sure as fuck, Flutter Brutter didn't send the message it was supposed to send.

>a fucking terrible job at sending the message.
It's really just circular reasoning.
This episode sends a 'bad message' > this episode does a terrible job at sending a 'good message'> this episode sends a 'bad message'

Plus all of your examples are based on subjective biased views. If a person doesn't want to analyze an episode and doesn't see a message for whatever reason, I can't really argue with their perception. But I can argue if a person ignores the concept of Author's Death and thinks they know for sure what is the 'REAL" message of the episode. Do you realize this is just unreasanobly putting yourself above everybody else as if you're that Special Chosen One that for some reason sees the 'REAL' message? There's no 'REAL' message, there are only different subjective messages different people see. Including the author.

Because I don't need to deny it if I was never it to begin with.

No, I don't like Jim Miller. He's a condescending schmuck. But I also don't like you entitled turds who antagonize him for the lulz.

I don't know if what I'm trying to say doesn't work the same in English, and that's why I'm failing to explain myself. Maybe "the message it sends" is an inaccurate translation, but then again, I think that Feeling Pinkie Keen is a perfect example of what I'm trying to say. Even if you realize what the original message was, it's not hard to see how it almost /looks like/ the message that is actually in the episode is a completely different one.
>If a person doesn't want to analyze an episode and doesn't see a message for whatever reason
It's not about "not wanting to analyze" anything, it's about a poorly delivered message. I'm not saying "oh, I can't find the message, I don't understand the episode, it's too complex for me and I'm misinterpreting it", I'm saying that the message could have been delivered in a much better way. I'm saying that the episode is so fucking terribly done that it almost looks like they were trying to say "if you haven't succeeded, it's because you haven't tried" rather than "if you don't try, you'll never know if you can succeed."
>unreasanobly putting yourself above everybody else
I'm not the one who started saying that people with different tastes have shit tastes. However, I've been told in this very thread that if I don't like that fucking piece of shit that Flutter Brutter is, I have shit taste. Just to let it clear, I do think that Flutter Brutter is awful, but I don't think that people who like it have shit taste, because they can enjoy it for completely different reasons (such as a personal experience that makes it relatable or whatever).
>There's no 'REAL' message, there are only different subjective messages different people see
Yes?

I suppose we should agree to disagree because we're basically talking about subjective perception and interpretation now and arguing about that isn't really going to bring any results.

It could only bring any results if both sides are willing to potentially change their perception of works of fiction after the debate. I don't think that's the case here.

You can have an opinion as long yuou support the show by purchasing the DVDS and toys.

Otherwise you are just an autistic loser complaining about his free entertainment.

I don't know. I didn't get this overwhelming feeling of "this is too predictable and makes me feel like a retard watching it" up until, like, season 3 -ish.

And I do not feel earlier episodes were just too "sophisticated" and went over 6 year old's heads all the time or whatever.

You know, the other day I watched Gift of Maud Pie. For the first time, seriously just a couple of days ago. Because frankly I can't be assed to watch the show much anymore. And there was this bit where Rarity / Maud go on to say something and then Pinkie goes "but it's not gonna be as exciting / awesome / surprising as my surprise for Maud!".

And then they basically show that scene again with a different setting and slightly altered choice of words. Rarity says something, yadda yadda this is great or whatever, and then Pinkie goes "but not as great as my gift for Maud!", something along those lines.

And then they do the same scene a third time in a row. Literally the same thing, Rarity says something, but now they're no longer in a cafe but in a clothing store or whatever, and Pinkie blurts out "oh yeah but you know what's gonna be even better, my gift for my sister Maud!"

I don't even know why I'm explaining this. I take it you know which scenes I'm talking about. I take it I'm still the minority in that shitposting about the show is more fun to me than actually watching it at this point.

It's like, I don't know. I just don't fucking know. Is this what 6 year olds want? Do you need to do the same thing THREE TIMES in order to make it "easy to digest"? Kids can be retarded fucks but you don't need to tell them things three times to get something across. I don't know if like the repitition makes it funny or whatever but it honestly wasn't even presented in a particularly funny light. I just don't know. The show has changed in a way that I refuse to believe makes 6 year olds cry tears of joy

He isn't wrong on the idea that the intended audience isn't often going to care about the richness of the plot, however he is wrong in the idea that a well written mature show would be disliked by a younger audience. Cartoons and children's media have a wonderful history of beautifully written stories that are as complex as Alice in Wonderland, or written by distinguished adult authors such as A. A Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh. The idea that Children's media should disregard good writing because "kids are dumb and don't care" is not only blatantly dismissive to the audience, but is also ignorant of a vast literary tradition of children's story telling
Nextly, the idea that just because the show is intended for children, doesn't change the fact that is does have a large demographic of adult watchers. Even if we disregard the bronies, we still have to admit that parents and guardians will be forced into the position of watching the show with their children. If the ONLY motivation for writing the show is to shill the most ads and toys, then the writers should probably write something that adults can appreciate and maybe even want to watch with their kids.
Lastly I'd like to point out that a good peace of art, or literature, or media should recognize it's audience, but not exclusively exist to serve an audience. Any good writer should want to make something that they like, something that inspires them to create beautiful content, if the writers of MLP are just sitting around a table strategically figuring out the technically best way to fellate the audience then this show wouldn't have been as good as it has been because it would feel like propaganda rather than art. This was a more generalized last point, and I understand that they have a job to do for their corporate overlords. But, the reason this show has been so good, the reason great works of art and media have spawned such a wealthy industry, has been because they were something the creator enjoyed.

rumors of jim using the "its a show for children so he doesnt care about quality" were greatly exaggerated. even in his open letter he stated otherwise.

funny enough the fags pushing that narrative did so using the same fake news tactics you see other sites use where they take a small clip out of context and blow it up and spread it everywhere so that by the time the truth comes out it doesnt matter. now you got a bunch of memefags here who keep echoing what they were told and other memers who actually purposely post his caps out of context. i know because i watched it happen live in a thread and i still see the cap being posted.

tdlr; jim cares about show quality.

He's not wrong, even in the slightest. Notice nobody said anything when Theissen in 2012 said, "we want people to like the show for what it is, not what it can be"

>Its funny how at this point, much like children, the adult fans are having more fun "playing pretend" with their pony toys (read: fan content) than actually enjoying the show.
It's almost like the show acts as a stimulant to the viewers' imaginations regarding what they want to do with the characters and setting, and nothing on the show even matters in real life.
>>
>>29965304
Or it's as if the show had degraded so much that the extended audience decided to imagine their own adventures and create it's own content because the official content sucks.
Just sayin'...
