    My theory about the elements of harmony is that they weren’t destroyed in G4. Yes, their physical representations were destroyed, but by then they were no longer needed. I believe that the elements of harmony take physical form when things in the world are out of balance.

    I’ve seen a lot of theories that Sunny will be able to summon her alicorn wings/horn for various reasons, but what if it’s more like a slider? What if as she learns more about the unicorns/Pegasi/earth pony magic, her wings and horn get more solid, culminating in a fully solid form when she fully understands the three Magics well enough to be able to lead the three tribes like Twilight.

    Something I don't see people mentioning: Heart to Hoof. A phase we hear from Sunny and her dad, that we hear throughout the movie. And what shape are their hooves? Hearts. And in the end credits scene what is the print of? Hoof hearts. I'm like 75% sure that either that phrase has some serious meaning and was represented in the physical way because it's an earth pony phrase, or there is something to the glowing magic that will link back to things.
    Heart to Hoof, for those who are empathic, caring and want to make a, wait for it, connection. And what are the ponies doing and creating now? Connections.

    Such a fantastic review Blissy 10/10, i absolutely loved the G5 movie the characters were awesome, the songs were catchy and the plot may have been predictable but it was still fun to watch, and it still makes me look forward to the G5 series and speaking of i too am still hoping that Sunny's Alicorn form is temporary and that it'll be a power that she can switch on and off.
    And as for the 3 crystals, i still can't shake the feeling that there is more to them like they might be part of something bigger like they could be part of a pyzzle or something but i'm sure Sunny and friends will solve the mystery, especially if Sunny continues her father's research.
    In conclusion, while i admit the movie has it's ups and downs like all movies do and that it could've covered more if it were longer, i still really enjoyed it!

    Queen Haven - government/celebrities, ignorance (Pegasi society stays glued to their screens instead of confronting problems)

Izzy is still my top favorite due to how cute she is and the fact that the entire plot happened because she took that first step to go out and meet other ponies.

    I enjoyed the film a great deal; the characters had depth and there was a good synergy between them. I especially liked the fact that Hitch and Sunny grew up as playmates and friends; there is a lot that could be mined from that for story ideas. I hoped Hitch would be the rock of friendship for Sunny and the others to lean on when needed and his character didn't disappoint. Hitch's best line: "I'll be right here if you want to talk, Sunny." The best kind of friend anyone could hope to have: one that listens. The musical numbers were catchy and memorable, the animation and depth of detail astounding (you know this movie is going to spoil us in what to expect/compare against when the series comes out) and the overall feeling is very heartwarming; you're pulling for the Mane 5 all through their adventure together. I don't know if it's quite 'Lightning in a Bottle' as Dr. Wolf described Lauren Faust's G4 MLP in one of his videos, but this is a VERY respectable start. If the intent was to keep the fandom interested and coming back for more, then they succeeded. What they have in mind for the series is beyond me. But then, I'm just guessing....

    they describe twilight and her friends as being in "Ancient Equestria" So what happened to Twilight and her friends? Will they appear in the new series as side characters? Or main characters? Discord seemed to live on for thousands of years and when Discord returned then Celestia and Luna were still alive which means that an alicorn's life span could last possibly forever soooo will Twilight be making an appearance?
    If the 3 types of ponies got split up with no magic then who did it? Could it have been someone who had no magic at all and thus they didn't have to worry about themselves in order to destroy Equestria and magic as we knew it and if so then will this villain make an appearance as well?
    Maybe Twilight got trapped in limbo like Star Swirl did and is still alive? Sunny could figure this out and try to bring Twilight back?
    If Twilight is in limbo then what caused it to happen? Was there some massive enemy that beat the mane 6 so badly that they had no choice but to seal away this enemy and Twilight in order to save Equestria?
    This movie raises a lot of questions that are clearly unanswered..

    I really want to see some of the ancient Equestrian artifacts from Argyle's collection come into play as the story goes on. They could have virtually anything tucked away in there, but we SAW right out in the open Grogar's Bewitching Bell on top of a stack of books under the framed map of Equestria. Now that could make for some big problems if someone figures out how to use it now that the magic is back.

  • @arctic_line

    My (current) headcannon for the magic stones is that, towards the end of Twilight's reign there were already seeds of discord among the ponies, if they hadn't straight up split yet, and that she used her powers to seal magic away within the stones in such a way that only someone who could unite the pony tribes again would be able to break this seal.

  • @brandonthedestroyer1140

    Hey, @LightningBliss I have a theory. Between the end of FIM. and A, New Generation Grogar returned. He released the 3 villains from stone and stole everyone's magic. So to keep everyone safe the 3 tribes Isolated each other. But when he was defeated the magic was gone for so long that by the time that the events of A New Generation happened the magic is slowly returning to Equestria. and I might expand this idea with my book on Wattpad called Grogar Returns.

  • @georgewolf7063
    @georgewolf7063 2 роки тому

    I agree with your concept, that Twi' created the "pony crystals" to focus the magic of the different races. I imagine that originally everypony just assumed having the crystals would keep the magic alive no matter what, meanwhile forgetting the true source of it. Taking the magic for granted, they might've grown apart, forgetting how much the races (tribes?) need each other, causing their magic to slowly fade from then on. One thing I'm hoping for from the new series is a gradual exploration and reveal of what really happened during the time leading up to G5! As well as a variety of adventures as the Mane 5 discover what went wrong and help other ponies to learn how to keep the magic alive!
    PS: I noticed your intro and ending music and how they relate to your whole "rainbow" theme! XD

    I've said this before in a precursor video of MLP: The Movie, their was tragic segregation and sentimental expositions between of the 3 distinctive pony breeds.
    And hypothetically, there was never any prime antagonist, showcased in the film to actually commence, but very likely, they were merely oversimplified ponies by false lore, logic, and propaganda, despite there briefly being emotional scenarios with there apparently being less character development that ensued, and how there was basic and kind of tedious foreshadowing.
    But overall, the film was stupendous for such a phenomenal masterpiece, breathtaking scenarios, harmonious music, story and character arcs, immensely textured depictions and landscapes too.
    And also I'm the optimistic, the dignified, the charismatic, Rowan Knighthood, such an esteemed pleasure to meet you Lightning Bliss which I love your hypothetical speculations and very deep notions, very amusing and captivating, from which I'm both motivated and inspired by U deeply.

    Honestly I’m thinking there’s a good chance that there was some villain responsible for the loss of magic, it’s just that getting rid of the magic and dividing the races was the main plan. It’s just that the crystals restored that magic when they sensed the magic of friendship. As for whatever happened to the villain, I’m guessing they either are doing something somewhere else, or they were partially foiled via being imprisoned or something but after the damage had been done.

      Could be an invading force trying to divide the races to weaken equestria and the lands beyond for an inevitable invasion to conquer it. Maybe they don't even rely on equestrian magic to do what they do and instead have their own sources of magic. Demons perhaps?

  • @comet790
    @comet790 2 роки тому +1

    I am personally really excited for the series, so many questions and some fantastic fan theories for what happened between the tribes. Personally what I think is, that something really really bad happened where Twilight (Yes I believe she might have caused it, will get back to that) set of a giant spell which made everyone ''forget about each other'' like Zipp said in a scene: It is like everypony just forgot. Now back to Twilight why I think she did it, something happened where she saw no other way and seeing as she was an alicorn made her qualified to actually set of a spell like that. No one else would have been able to from just the sheer amount of magic needed and I think she is actually still around. Her becoming an alicorn might have prolonged her life to what an normal Alicorn like Celestia and Luna would live. And the reason for this is in the old building in Zephyr heights where Zipp showed them the windows. One the windows had Twilights mark on it, two the building does not look that old at all, seeing how the design is close to what Zephyr heights is and the posters of the different pony cities and wonderbolts being there. That place could be max 100 years old and that is the Absolute max. So Twilight might actually be around still, lingering or sleeping or trying to figure out how to fix whatever that would force her to do this. But that is just my personal theory
    Oh yeah and the crystals, might have been made by Twilight too or someone other really powerful as a backup to bring magic back and friendship if Twilight failed in whatever caused this.

    The idea that the ponies have to be united for any magic to exist is proven false by the time of the three tribes. They may not have been united, but they still had magic. There had to have been something more. Maybe another magic eating threat that forced them to lock away magic, but it persisted for long enough that the tribes had time to separate again.
    I'm more interested where their technology has come from, since we see that they're just three modestly sized towns. Equestria was big, it had the infrastructure to support a spohisticated civillisation. Three cities, each left to it's own resources does not have the land, materials, or ponies to support an industrial civillisation in each. Even all three together would seem to be too small a resource base for smartphone technology, absent magic, which we know they don't have.

    then with her fixing the picture at the end... it being her putting the past behind her, and putting her trust in Sunny. Putting her belief in Sunny, because she couldn't believe sunny's dad.

    A lot of people have been wondering if Zephyr Heights is actually built from or on top of the old city of Canterlot, but I don’t think it is. We see in Sunny’s map that all three locations in the movie are located near a large body of water (likely a sea or ocean), but generation 4 never showed Canterlot or the nearby Ponyville being near some kind of massive water body. Plus, we see a map of Canterlot and Ponyville in the background of the lighthouse at the beginning of the movie, and no major body of water is depicted on that map. Zephyr Heights isn’t Canterlot, and that means that we’ll almost certainly be seeing Canterlot again at some point in the g5 future.

I do wish the villain could have been someone wanting the same thing that sunny wanted (uniting all the tribes) but by force and sunny showing said villain people need to do that themselves but sprout was still a funny antagonist and his song, angry mob, felt like a combination of blame Canada from the South Park movie and when the going gets tough from the spongebob musical but more rock n roll (obviously) I really love friendship between sunny and Izzy as they set out to restore the magic and especially when Izzy realizes sunny and her father were the ones who sent the letter she got. The music was real beautiful and while the plot was predictable it was still fun.

Because the character you see on the billboard is the Arnold analog (I think it's the Model 101 or something like that). And in the second movie, he's the good guy. So that billboard was more or less foreshadowing that, at the very least, Unicorns would become good guys.

However the only part of Hitch that I didn't like was how he he was about to end his friendship with Sunny because she believed that Earth ponies, unicorns, and pagesis all once lived together in peace and harmony. As someone who had been backstabbed, betrayed, and abandoned by ex-friends in the past that scene hit pretty hard to home for me. Throughout the whole movie until towards the end the only thing Hitch cared about was arresting Sunny.

    I began questioning why the pony races hated each other too…but in a way…I have been gathering a small and reasonable theory onto why they do.
    With twilight becoming the princess of friendship, I’ve always felt that when they used the map to spread said friendship…over the many many moons…ponies became dependent on the 6 to spread the friendship for them they became so dependent that they were the reason as to why the different pony races and creature race stayed in harmony for as long as they did as those 6 solved literally e v e r y problem in friendship FOR them, never giving the causers of the disputes time to figure out how to solve their own friendship problems….once the 6 passed on and finished their stories….more and more friendship problems began rising, through grieving and other various reasons that can …and with that it just caused more and more problems, and with the 6 not there they were unsolvable as ponies were not taught how to solve the problems themselves, and with them not around to take the calls from the map, or the map loosing its magic when they passed….more and more friendships divided and problems were unsolvable and that eventually leading tribes to Separate

    I was also very underwhelmed at the end as everything was rushed to the point it just felt empty. It was building up nicely but after the unicorn forest, I didn't like it.

    Your question about younger unicorns not being sure how to use their magic could still be valid. Levitation is confirmed as the bare basics, so them being able to figure that one out while still learning other spells and uses of such could still be on the table. Same with Pegasai figuring out if and how they can command or alter elements of the weather in a world that apparently does it on its own.
    Additionally, this new world seems to be running on a natural cycle as its not mentioned if there is still a need for night and day to be raised and set by magic, which falls into my theory that Discord’s disruption of nature through chaos magic set things out of whack so much that ponykind needed to use their magic to keep it from going out of control to the point of not having a place to live, until finally the chaos magic became wild magic became this world’s version of nature. The ponies learning how their magic works in this world that has gone on without their help during their time without magic will also be interesting to see.

    So the mane six are legends with a toy line, but this must be far enough in the future for all of the canon alicorns to have died. We know that alicorns can live for well over 1000 years; so even if we assume that Celestia and Luna died or just stopped caring, we still have Twilight, Cadence and Flurry.
    Even if we assume they all died, the question remains: what happened to Discord? He reformed and would have taken some of the friendship stuff to heart, so what happened to this literal immortal?
    Did Discord get depressed and even more unhinged after Fluttershy died? So much so that he would just kill the alicorns and factory reset Equestria.
    We all know he could
