Quote from: Abacus on November 12, 2012, 07:39:56 AMAs I said earlier, I think the bronies bashing G3 are getting it confused with G3.5. They're not the same.. So when people say that G3 sucks and is stupid, I have to remind them that there's a difference between the G3's and G3.5's! I don't think they are talking about G3's because I absolutely ADORE the G3's.G3 is just as hated. It is deemed to be "too girly and stupid". You'll find the same kind of comments on G3 video's and images as you will find on G3.5 ones. I think most people don't get that the show was aimed at very young children and that some animations had pretty much no budget.

The show is no different from that. There hardly have been such nods in the show before and now that they put a blatant nod into it, it's a mocking one about G3. What a coinkidink.I don't think it's fair to ascribe malicious intent to the animators, especially when the episode hasn't aired so no one's seen the bit in context rather than cut together in a commercial. No who has worked on the show has ever expressed any such opinions, and I wouldn't be surprised if some of them worked on G3 videos.What? I said "The animators didn't want to "attack" people." in the SAME post you quoted me from. : /So yeah, noone is "ascribing malicious intent to the animators". Like i said, in that post, they just wanted to give another nod to the bronies. Most people are sadly not very aware that there are a lot of old gen fans.They focus on the brony community and the brony community is (in general) not very kind to G3. That's it.Also, no, Studio B isn't behind any of the G3 productions.

The ad was very cute and as others have pointed out, what makes it problematic is the other ponies' negative reactions to her. She was making a silly face. They were disgusted. It wasn't a face where she was pulling up her eyelids or picking her nose (you know actual disgusting things) but it was a cute face where she was merely different. The negative reaction from the others is telling.
:I I really think some people are looking into this too much.

I love FiM but sometimes it's hard to do so. A fandom can kill things for you.
Some people are taking the time to analyze this where others might just let it go, but why shouldn't we?
