Oh, I wasn't trying to say Summer wasn't allowed to dislike G2. It's just that she was holding one in her hand when she was talking about G2. It just made me think that some editing happened that didn't give her complete thoughts on the subject. I also think that a lot more interviews would have to happen for them to convey the full story of G2.An A&E Documentary might be more nuanced and intriguing. Or as suggested before, we could do our own.
I do personally (and I emphasise "personally") think bronies should get at least a small section, because it was a big and nostalgic aspect of the fandom for some people (though I may be the only one of those people here), but not treat them as the main focus. I respect your opinion, though.
Personally, I am just so bored of the MLP fandom getting split into "oldhead, pink-loving pony mommies" and bronies. As if new fans can't like G1-3 and old fans can't like G4. Blah. I wish we could move on.
So yeah. Enough already with the brony rubbish.
It's as though there's a belief that the first ever male pony fans happened in G4 - well, they didn't. It's as though MLP didn't have adult fans until G4. Well, they did. It's as though G4 created a MLP following - well, it both did and it didn't, depending on your angle, but it didn't invent the idea of a MLP fan community.
For those confused, I deleted my question about storylines, because misremembered the topic as having Arena memebers saying "We didn't need a storyline back in the day!" as it were, but the closest I found were people in the documentary saying that pre-G4 had no story. So I got that wrong, sorry about that.I do personally (and I emphasise "personally") think bronies should get at least a small section, because it was a big and nostalgic aspect of the fandom for some people (though I may be the only one of those people here), but not treat them as the main focus. I respect your opinion, though.I guess it would be a nice change to focus on the actual toyline/franchise and not the fans though.
Zapper, if you suggest pegasisters I will throw fakies at you. You have been warned.
I had a super long reply but it's just not worth it. I have made my feelings about the entire brony separation thing super obvious in the past.

Female FiM fans feeling excluded from bronies within their own fandom, so they had to split themselves again into male FiM fan/female FiM fan. Instead of just going by "fan" or something more provocative: ORIGINAL TARGET AUDIENCE Proof that "bro-ny" merely refers to ones sex and isn't needed because male G1-G3 fans have always existed and will continue to exist. Male G4 fans are not better or cooler than them. Not even by 20%
