Quote from: Luxrayx on August 08, 2017, 04:23:51 AMI think season 1 and 2 of FiM are both overrated. People are all too quick to remember the good episodes, and forget that there's as many dumb ones as in newer seasons. I agree. Also how people make the cut right after the end of S2 is suspicious. That's when Lauren Faust wasn't consulting anymore.

I love all ponies with tinsel or glitter. You have a sparkly pony? Im going to love it!I also love so softs. I remember when I started collecting I thought they looked kinda.. Well, not my thing. But once I got one in a lot, I instantly fell in love. SS ponies with good flocking are so adorable! I dont really care about baby ponies. They're ok, I will keep them if they come in a lot, but I would probably never buy them. Unless we are talking about jewellery babies..
I liked "Slice of Life", too.Well, except Octavia's voice. Worst excuse for an English accent I've ever heard, and I've heard a loooot of bad English accents

Worst excuse for an English accent I've ever heard, and I've heard a loooot of bad English accents Don't get me started on bad English accents in things.Whenever I watch Jem, the only one who has a reasonable voice is Jetta, because her voice artist is more or less English and Christy Marx insisted on her having a proper speaker for the role, but some of the others are awful. I didn't know Octavia was meant to be 'English' but if it's that bad, I would probably hate her on sight
Luna's future is one of the most boring song of FiM, trying to be epic but failed miserably.Now half of the brony fandom probably wants to kill me because they worship Luna.By the way, i think Luna is way too overrated.
I hate ridiculously priced ponies too. That's pretty popular from a buyer's perspective.
I don't like G3 Spike... I didn't realize this was an unpopular opinion until reading about how much people liked him. G1 Spike for life.
I thought all the ponies having different accents was kind of weird, especially when they live together. Where are you from, Truly? How far do ponies travel? How big is ponyland?? In my head, I always felt G1 ponyland was a relatively small group of ponies with some wandering around in the wilderness.I also disliked that the boy ponies suddenly returned and yet no one ever mentioned or missed them before. Total destruction of a "head canon" I suppose. lol.
So I am unsure which bits of this are unpopular opinions, but this statement of Faust's (I'm copying from Wiki, if it's misquoted or misattributed then that's my disclaimer) about the original MLP animation being "endless tea parties, giggled over nothing and defeated villains by either sharing with them or crying".So the reason I have issues with this, aside the obvious fact anyone who's ever seen Rescue at Midnight Castle, Tambelon, Bright Lights, Somnambula, Revolt of Paradise Estate etc knows it's rubbish, is that in my opinion, that statement perfectly sums up FIM. I am not even that big a fan of the old animated series. But I have become much more sympathetic to it since that, because as far as I'm concerned, Faust basically created a series that was everything she hated about G1 animation. And most of those reasons, especially the obsessive need to befriend everything, is why I couldn't ever get into FIM. I don't remember a compulsive need for the old ponies to befriend every villain they met. I do remember North Star ringing a bell to consign one of them to a world of darkness though...Given the size of the FIM fandom, it's clearly an unpopular opinion, so I am putting it here
Animation wise-G3.5 and G4 look alot alike, so people who hate one and praise the other, have a lot of nerve.
I love the BBE babies. Moreso than the regular g1 babies.I think super mint condition collections are boring. I prefer my ponies to be a little beat up, have some history and character!That thick chunky coloured tinsel they used for the Butterfly Island g3s was really pretty.I do like Mimic (green and parrots!!! my faves!!) but if anyone from that set deserves that amount of attention, it's Bright Eyes.I prefer the g4.5 reboot ponies over the older g4s. By comparison, the older ones look droopy and dull and the reboot set look a little closer to what ponies should look like, imo.I can't wait for g5 to pop up and flush out the last of the people latching onto the brony label and g4's popularity. I was still very much a child when the brony phenomenon started and was extremely hurt by feeling chased out of the community I grew up in because I was now seemingly in the minority and in the wrong for being a kid who liked kids toys. The last of my childhood was taken away from me for the comfort of adult men in a space that didn't belong to them and I can't wait for them to get a taste of their own medicine when g5 rolls around and children take up the majority of mlp fans again.
