Yeah, "Festival of Licensing" is just a very funny name to me.  :lol:  This year it's online so I guess they will have to drink alone at home while they make Zoom calls.

That oughtta be entertaining.  :biggrin:

Bet you guys 5 bits that the third movie will also be called “My Little Pony the Movie”, like the first two were.

Waiting patiently for actual images of "new cast"

Right? We've been burned before ;)

Of course a "new generation" can mean anything...it doesn't have to be a brand new concept, just a revamp which is then called "a new generation".

Random,ly this made me laugh, though. Because of how many tabs I had open on my browser already when I opened this one, it cut off the name halfway through. So it just said "Hasbro joins Festival of Lice..."

...Well, that would be new O.o.

We knew Twilight Sparkle wasn't returning, but it's looking like Hasbro is going for a full on, brand new cast for this one as seen in the quote:

I sincerely hope we get a whole new cast but I’m not going to get too excited until there is actual confirmation.

 Re: non-pony cast members.

I actually hope that the majority of the primary cast remain ponies.  I like My Little Pony *because* they are ponies.  Don’t get me wrong, I like the other creatures as supporting cast.  But I don’t want half the cast to be non-pony.  To me it would be like having half the cast of Smurfs not be Smurfs. :shrug:

That being said, I think that a good number of the species in G4 should have been subspecies of pony rather than an entirely different species, with their own symbols and everything.  Particularly, the Kirin, the hippogriffs/sea ponies (and make them separate species this time!) the Breezies and the zebras.

Excited about the new cast part. Less excited about the "computer animated" part, as if that's something rare and special during this point in time lol. I know that FiM was also computer animated but in this context I am assuming it means G5 shows will be 3D animated. I'm so burned out on 3D, but that's just a personal issue.

As long as the toys are nice (and varied and BRUSHABLE  :mad: ) I'll be happy.

Was FIM considered a "new cast" despite having a revamped Pinkie and Rainbow Dash along with the newbies?

Bet you guys 5 bits that the third movie will also be called %u201CMy Little Pony the Movie%u201D, like the first two were.

Oh don't even joke about that... I swear if they do that again I'll..... be very disappointed in them.

It's such a nightmare trying to search for the original movie now. @__@; I mean, I get it, "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic: The Movie" is too much of a mouthful, but.... come on. Literally anything would've been better than just reusing the title of the 80s film...

Cautious optimism from me, and kicked me to ask fandom to renew my G5MLP wikia url. >.<

No thanks on the cgi 3d. Yuck!


If the toys are nice quality, horsey and have variety, I'll bite.

i have to wonder if they aren’t, if the collector fan base would make enough noise like the Sonic fan base, to get things to change.
I hope it doesn’t come to that, if the toys are more horse-like from the start, but even so...

I am praying that by "CGI" they mean "CGI rigs with 2D-looking animation over it", like Transformers Cyberverse (which isn't the prettiest, but also isn't ugly) or Toonboom like the G4 MLP movie (which was gorgeous.)

But I'm keeping my expectations low . . . It's better to start out with low expectations; then anything good that comes about is a wonderful surprise. :)

Really? I'm getting the feeling it'll look like a really low budget Paw Patrol.

 American animation is too cheap and sucky these days for it not to be.

Well I mean Castlevania looks good but the length, pacing and dialogue leave much to be desired.
Even though it delivered some real gems from Bluefang, Isaac and Godbrand.

 And I've heard good things about Dragon Prince, done by Team Avatar, but those are exceptions not the rule.
