Thank GOD I didn't waste my youth or social life on this cartoon.
Thank GOD I didn't form some insane sexual fantasies that will never be understood nor ever get new content once the show ended.
Thank GOD I never started a career based on a show that would eventually end.
Thank GOD I never ruined my relationship with my family by confusing them with a strange obsession not easily explained.
Thank GOD I never fell in love with a fictional character that I will never see again.

Do you even busniess?
They wouldint be making this movie if they didint plan to ride out the sales hype that it will produce for as long as possible.
Honestly I'll just be glad to see Pony with a group of people in a theater. I know there's meetups and all that but its different with a actual movie.
So... They all become alicorns at the end of the movie.
Calling it now.
>>25465982
Burn in hell, Larson
Never quite sure why people think this means no Season 7. I mean it's perfectly possible that the movie will come out whilst a season is airing (inb4 Season 6 is delayed until then).
>>25465453
Obligatory pic related.
>>25466098
Holy fuck, who is Amy Pascal? How can this be real? How does she have any authority? It's not just the underlined part that upsets me, it's every fucking word. She writes like a child. She's barely coherent. Nothing she says makes sense. Does she have any authority in the film industry? Any at all? Holy fuck, it must be incredibly easy to become an editor or agent. I'm already far more qualified than her.
>>25466098
who the fuck is the first email from? a 12 years old?
The second email sound alright. But still, it makes me fear.
>>25466136
She used to be the fucking head of Sony Pictures. I'll tell you, I never had any sympathy for Hasbro's CEO until I read the email where he was genuinely excited about the partnership and what it meant for both and she responded with that shit. And then didn't even bother replying when they asked one final time if they wanted to distribute.
Any deal with Sony died around the same time that Lionsgate's CEO got a seat on Hasbro's board of directors. It was definitely for the best. Considering what Pascal is doing now (making an indie movie about "that" Internet harassment movie that she's pushing to big studios) it was probably good that Sony fell through.
I doubt that there's the same script in the movie we get in 2017, honestly. Sony had a few good points Hasbro listened to and rewrote it several times. It probably looks nothing like the leak now.
>>25466174
What the fuck. I can't even wrap my head around that. What kind of devious nepotism lead to her becoming head of a studio? I seriously think she's mentally ill. Even children can function better than that. That's just...it has to be fake. No way an adult with that much influence is basically a drooling moron.
And yeah, given that it's still 2 years until the movie comes out, and there's a whole season airing between now and then, I'm willing to bet that whatever happens in the movie will be reliant on where season 6 leaves off, kind of like how the EQG movies all took place directly after the events of the season finales.
>>25465536
whats your career anon?are you one of the inventors of that sweet salty mare juice?
>>25466174
As far as It's not something like the Smurfs... I mean, yes, I just want a 90 minutes long episode with maybe a "deeper" storyline or some shit which can't be put un 22 minutes.

>Thank GOD I didn't form some insane sexual fantasies that will never be understood nor ever get new content once the show ended.
Thank god I kept a diverse fap repertoire than can do without one single thing. Besides, most of the new stuff coming out right NOW is either anthro shit or just shit.
>Thank GOD I never fell in love with a fictional character that I will never see again.

>MLP Movie 1st Draft 3_16.pdf (196577 Bytes)
I don't know how Wikileaks works and how did that email get there or whatever.... but couldn't we get that .pdf? for science.
>>25466198
Oh, did you see the response given above the email? Where they're basically telling her to calm down and ask Hasbro for more information? That's pretty much what she was like the entire time she was there. She was astoundingly unprofessional and actually tried to pit companies that would have given Sony a ton of money against each other.
Pony is one example, but how she put Dr. Seuss' estate against Sega against which movie Sony would make was fucking retarded. Now neither of those properties ended up going to Sony.
And after he left, she actually had the fucking gall to say that people hated her because she was a woman. No, they hated her because that email is pretty much a summation of how she acted as head of the company.
>>25466198
To be fair, a movie shouldn't just be a really long episode. That's why it's a movie. It was one of the valid critiques they had. Hasbro was not interested in a "Smurfs" situation at all anyway.
>>25465899
I'm probably getting offduring the upcoming year-long hiatus
If they bring humans and ponies together in the movie then I will never draw again.

It was a real letter from IDW, I and many other people got one. It was sent by an intern or something who didn't speak for the company I guess. Or they intentionally told a lie to get fan off their back.
Not sure if the Ice Age guy is still doing it. All the Lionsgate stuff never mentioned him.

Nope, he's still attached to project. What they did was choose Lionsgate as their distributor instead of Sony.

CONFIRMED
MY LITTLE PONY IS FULL OF LESBIANS,FANSERVICE,AND LOTS OF SEXUAL INNUENDOS
Season 7 could happen if Hasbro wants to promote the film throughout 2017 leading up to the film's release. Consider how late in the year the movie is coming out - November.
If there is no extra season of the show leading up to the movie's release then they risk losing viewer interest in their movie and flopping at the box office.
>>25467623
Yeah, like Jem.
>Do or Deer will not be finished by then
>/mlp/ confirmed for cuks
Whats going to happen to /mlp/ after all this ends? I love this place too much to see it go

I love how the hashtag #MLP2017 is the same from the supporters of Marine Le Pen's presidential campaign.
>>25467733
>#MLP2017 is the same from the supporters of Marine Le Pen's presidential campaign.
>>25467623
but anon. S6 itself could be the season leading to the movie's release. See >>25466112
I say, if they go for a S5-like release for S6, starting in 2016 April-May and finishing 2016 Nov-Dec, they we could say a Season 7 is guaranteed because they won't leave a whole year of emptyness before the movie.
But if as de Lacie said, S6 begins in about one year, then the movie would be place right after the S6 ending...
>>25467733
OH SHIT
>>25467733
This gonna to be funny
>>25467623
Season 7 could even be a short season like season 3, and the season finale could air in summertime and could end with a cliffhanger to be continued in the movie when it gets released in November.
Or they could end season 7 with a well-resolved happy ending like in season 2, and if they do it well and make season 7 really good overall, fans of the show will want to see the movie out of their love to the characters and their stories, which is what's kept us here and wanting more all along.

>>25468121
Yeah since 2013, but Hasbro's girl sales will continuing going down but boys sales with Star Wars will go up soon.
>>25468121
What really helped them recently and will continue to help is Disney related stuff.
>>25465634
None of those are based on a toyline you dingus.
They're going to MLP for a long ass time, but FiM has a shelf life.
>>25468154

Disney should work for Mattel and buy the rights of MLP and LPS from Hasbro.
>>25468034
Idk, I'll probably wait for a rip, or something. I mean looking at the horsefucker map, I could go with some of them, but I'd be afraid thatI'd cry like a little bitch in front of them when the movie ended, implying that would wrap up the series

>>25468235

EqG's what depressed the MLP brand's sales. The Girl division itself has been hemorrhage money because Furby's shit and Hasbro refuses to just let it die.

>>25467733
>>25472470

It's doubtful, considering Hasbro have refused to let it die for years.
>>25465453
Guys
guys, listen
What ifS6 ending will be the true series finale and the movie is going to be a pointless status quo filler like the second Spongebob movie?
>>25472470
>an end to fim
reminds me of people in 2012-2013
>>25467463
Nope, i think Jayson Thiesson is now an official director for the movie. Ice Age4 guy worked for Sony. After Hasbro trashed their deal with them, they had new one with Lionsgate where Meghan could choose a director herself.
>>25467733
>all the bronies will never realise that they are promoting a fascist conservatist
>>25468001
Hopefully the movie and S6 is acting as a finale for G4. They can't recycle those characters and their endless quest for friendship, forever. Twilight can't literally aspire to become anything more than a ruler of Equestria by that point. All of them except Rainbow Dash already reached their goals. There is no need to keep it going.
>>25474040
But they still make new spongebob episodes
>>25474123
because its fucking spongebob. there is no fucking story involved.
I still bet there are ~10 seasons
>>25474108
>>25471186
The problem is that MLP is not a sitcom-tier series like SImposns or Spongebob where everything reset after the episode while none of the characters age or develop over time.
Hasbro may still give money to produce MLP for their toys, but DHX may use it to just end the G4 series and focus on promoting Hasbro toys in G5 series with time skip and completely new characters.
>>25467733
We will remove kebab... democratically!
>>25474040
The movie in 100% going to act like a filler, most likely separated from the series like EQG (you can treat it as canon if you want)
The reason for it is that Hasbro want to make it accessable for the newcomers and all the potential little girls who never bought pony toys before. They are not going to make a movie that act as a finale because all the noobies woudn't had any idea of whats going on.
Is like never seeing Game of Thrones yet coming to the cinema to see the finale and who won the throne in the end. Not making any sense.
>>25474166
>>25467733
Is this really happening?
>>25474183
You're completely right, their leaked emails with Sony had alot of retarded shit Sony said, but one thing Sony said that made sense and Hasbro agreed on was that a movie too continuity-driven would be inacessible to anyone that weren't already a hardcore fan of the show, so they're reworking the movie to be more of a MLP film all around so not just fans will get what's going on.
>>25465460
Movie adaptations are usually released around either the peak of the franchise's popularity, or at the end of the series.
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_My_Little_Pony:_Friendship_Is_Magic_episodes
According to wikipedia, the TV ratings peaked during season 4.
>https://www.google.com/trends/explore#q=%2Fm%2F0czdsgs
Google Trends shows the same thing, with the number of searches peaking during season 4.
The movie is being released nearly 4 years after the series' high point. Therefore, we can conclude that the final season will be either 6 or 7. Since the movie overlaps with the time season 7 would be airing, there will most likely be no season 7.
>>25474461
>Implying Hasbro would want to stop making G4 when they can still milk some more shekels out of it
As long as they are making a profit on the toys or from the show, I doubt they will stop producing anything.
>>25465453
I don't care. Im gonna shitpost here until that happens, and long after that, I'll still be here
>>25474306
That would mean no Discord or other seconadary characters, since they would have no chance to proprely introduce them and still making a coherent story with new characters and villains. And a powerfull magic chimera suddenly popping out to say hello to Fluttershy would be wierd.
>>25475029
Why do you think they would continue with G4?
G5 means new character. New Characters mean new toys. And new story and setup mean new castle/wedding sets
>>25475142
I see what your saying, but wouldn't there have to be a long gap between generations? Granted I don't follow other cartoons but having a new generation straight after the previous one seems strange
Frankly, I´ll be okay with the ride ending if it ends on a high note and gives us some kind of closure for the characters, what I do not want that the show turns into a zombie, that shambles on and on like the Simpsons or Spongebob, shows that have overstayed their welcome years, if not decades ago and only get worse and harder to look at.
>>25474461
>Since the movie overlaps with the time season 7 would be airing, there will most likely be no season 7.
The movie wont be overlapping during the time season 7 would air if they don't use the pointless mid-season haitus thing like in season 5, or any gaps between new episodes like season 5 has been doing where they skip a week or two before a new episode finally airs again. Also remember season 3 was a half-season, and they could very well do the same thing for season 7.
There are 29 Saturdays between April 15, 2017 and October 28, 2017, and they could even start season 7 earlier than April if they wanted to.
>>25475744
Seasons 1-4 all ran through November. That's the normal time for new episodes.
In fact, that's probably why they had the S5 hiatus: To get the show back on the normal schedule.

well assuming the season ends about the end of this year, and the next season takes a year, to make, season 6 will be released on like march 2016, maybe later, and last until the end of the year, and repeat to 2017. I'll assume Season 7 will start around May-June 2017, and 1/2 season stop through small hiatus, movie release, then continue to end of season.
tl;dr Very likely, and on top of that, likely the last season.

I wonder what G5 will be like. Will it be the same animation style, or will we see CGI like that Filly Funtasia.
>>25474461
>>25475029
>>25475142
As long as G5 will be as cute as G4 ponies, I don't think I would mind it much.
If they are going back to less cute designs of the earlier gens, I'll be fucking sad though.
>>25478311
if they change it, will it appeal to g4 fans? is the animation style what appeals to people, something else, or a blend of lots of attributes of the show? makes you think.
>>25478311
>G5 premieres
>it's just as bad as G3/3.5

That would probably happen too, since it's still mostly a visual medium.
If people stop being entertained/endeared by the visuals, there's not much chance they will grow to love a new generation, or will even want to try.

>>25478521
>Two Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha films. MGLNViVid
Nanoha franchise pretty much died though, no information about 3rd movie since forever, Tamura Yukari stopped seiyuu work, ViVid hated by everyone (and deservedly so, making a lolicon spinoff into non-lolicon anime) and BDs aren't even up for sale, etc.
Other than that, I hope you're right.

..rather telling that you know all of this. But then, so do I. Perhaps Seven Arcs will do another Dog Days series. Hopefully a third series of Ore Twintail ni Narimasu, and Haiyore! Nyaruko-san (and films for both?). And a second series of Moretsu Pirates after the Abyss of Hyperspace film wouldn't go amiss, neither.

Strange, that's two of the reasons why I watch anime:

Hideous Flat Chests could cease to exist in anime & manga, for all I care. Thus Chiaki Kurihara in Moretsu Pirates, and that delightfully pervy troll Twoearle in Ore Twintail ni Narimasu, among others.

...ah, right. Still, no great loss. Can always find a replacement, unlike Kana, whose Nyaruko is more hyper than Excel in Excel Saga

This. I think in the big lines that kind of story will be kept. Not completely rewritten because the basics have been leaked. Now I wonder what kind of content Lionsgate will allow to distribute. We should need everything about that, but >muh sikrets.

Technically, it's inevitable, there will be a lot of differences and high chances that the cartoon will no longer be produced by DHX.
Unless they hire Faust again, they will need a new character designer becuase the 2010s designs will need to be renewed. including the universe, let alone the characters. Some will be kept, Twilight, AJ, RD, Pinkie, Scootaloo, SB, AB. It's all a question of copyrights and licensing.
They will also, inevitably have the need to redesign their pony toyline and the logo, which includes a complete visual rebranding of their IP and their licensing policies. Regarding all the fanart and fanworks G4 got, they will be now obliged, like the jews they are, to intensify their media and trademark usage controls.
Politics and times are also changing. These influences have an impact on the series and everything. From the marketing methods to the target audience. I really don't think G5 will be about princesses and a Kingdom of Equestria where magic reigns.
It will be even more different, even more minimalistic since there are currently no visual / graphic trend rising. imagine a flat-design vaporwave-ish pony show...

Those trademarked content are meant to be kept secret. I think the movie will close and conclude the G4 series, just like at the end of the G1 and G3 they released a movie, essentially for home video.
Don't go imagine a multi-million budget animation film here.

Shoot up a school dressed in a vinyl scratch furcostume. While SWAT is beating down the door to the classroom your held up in, scream "20% COOLER BASS CANNON!!!" And charge them with your suicide vest containing horse dildos.

I think it's fairly likely to have something directly leading into the movie without a year long break that would make people forget about said lead in.
Like Season 6 starts in Spring 2016, hiatus in the summer, finishes, Season 7 also starts in Spring but maybe like a month earlier so it go through the same cycle but end in October a month before the movie on a lead in two parter for maximum hype.

seems like even reddit doesn't like them:
>Disney, Universal, Warner Bros, New Line Cinema, every single movie studio gives us access to their new movies by Wednesday at midnight, giving me two days to make sure everything is perfect for opening night, every company except Lionsgate.
For context, Mockingjay officially releases this Friday, but legally we are allowed to show the film Thursday at 7 PM, not only that, but we also agreed to show Mockingjay Part 1 and Part 2 as a marathon on Wednesday.
We received the hard drive on Tuesday afternoon, which is totally understandable, it's pushing it, but I can program and test 2 movies in one night, its not my first day on the job. They send us a digital key unlocking Part 1 at like 3:40 A.M. Tuesday which will lock up again Wednesday at 11:59 P.M., they we're being a little over protective of a movie that got mediocre reviews over a year ago, but it's fine. I test Part 1 last night, everything is perfect, and I open up to Part 2 only to discover that it's still locked up. They didn't unlock the movie at midnight, they unlocked it at NOON, on Wednesday, the DAY we are showing the double feature. Noon gives me four hours to test the movie before I manage the theater for the double feature, four hours to make sure the movie is prepared when the movie itself is almost 2 1/2 hours. So assuming absolutely nothing goes wrong, I'm cutting it really fucking close. They are protecting Mockingjay Part 2 like the Ark of the Fucking Covenant.
Guess what, it locks again, at midnight. It is unlocked for 12 hours. We start our official showing of Mockingjay Part 2 at around 8:30 P.M., meaning the movie ends about 1 hour before it locks up, what if we have any issue whatsoever? It unlocks again at 5 PM Thursday, but with a new key, meaning on my day off, I need to go to the theater, download the key, and reinstall it for a movie we already showed, just to reduce the chances of piracy.
