In light of what I wrote on the last page, this is actually pretty funny.

So I never watched the G5 movie. I mean, of course not, considering the completely irredeemable disaster that was the ending of the last show. Why would I ever trust another show made by the same people? I mean, why do you think HBO canceled that Game of Thrones prequel even after spending $30 million on it? Not because people were so thrilled with the ending of the original show that they were lining up to watch the prequel, I can tell you that.

Oh, and a bit of spoilers ahead, so stop reading now if you care and still haven't seen it in the last four months or whatever.

But anyway, I read a plot summary of the movie, and it turns out it's not only technically a sequel to G4, it takes place at a time when Equestria had been destroyed so long ago it became a myth and no one believes it ever existed, and all the pony tribes are living separately and hate each other again.

So hey, everything I said was right, huh? They abandoned the magic of friendship at the end of the show, and look what happened. Sure, maybe Twilight was able to keep things going for a while, but clearly it eventually caught up. Karma usually does.

When I said it was funny, I meant that in a fairly dark way obviously. Really, it makes the end of the show look like Se7en. The bad guys won, by making the good guys kill them and betray everything they believe in. Which, again, is just an absolutely delightful way to end the series.

Ugh, and I really shouldn't be getting invested like this, but... I gotta wonder about the changelings. The only reason their transformation worked is because they were able to make friends with all the ponies and other races, and get the love they needed that way. So if things got so bad the three tribes split up again, what does that mean for the changelings? Did they turn back to normal and start stealing love again? Or are they just never going to be mentioned—thus implying that they went extinct due to a lack of food?

Of course, everything I said is just overthinking, and is probably way more thought than anyone involved with the show put or will put into things. It was just some funny stuff to think about. Again, funny in like a dark way.
