      @Delali Kwakou It's a decent idea. I think the only problem is that MLP:FiM and StH have never been known to share a universe and because the animals in StH are anthropomorphic, it would be a bit weird to see animals in two different ways. There'd have to be some kind of dimensional travel to kind of nullify that weirdness.

    One of my favorite parts is when Tempest says "Face it princess, friendship has failed you too." It didn't sound sarcastic. If anything, it sounded hopeless and almost sad. Tempest isn't gloating or rubbing it in Twilight's face or anything like that. She just states what she believes to be a fact. Tempest is essentially saying "Welcome to my world" or "We have similar experiences." This song gets so much more meaning after that one line because Tempest is relating to Twilight at that exact moment. Tempest almost even sounds sympathetic.

    Im honestly so glad they didn't give Tempest back her horn.
    A big rule regarding handicapped characters is that sometimes they shouldn't need "fixing".
    Tempest learned that just because she had an impairment, it didn't mean she couldn't be strong and have people who love her.
    She's a great character who struggled, and in the end, was able to accept her scars and move on with the support of the people around her.
    It's very refreshing tbh. Too many movies and shows think they need to fix handicapped characters, when they're fully capable of being great without being fixed.
    Many people in the world aren't fortunate enough to get solutions to their disabilities. So to have characters like Tempest who CAN thrive and find acceptance without needing to get her horn back first is great.

The fact that it's "friendship failed you" shows where Tempest has laid the blame, regardless of whether she has the full context of why Twilight's alone now. Tempest isn't being malicious or anything; she has sympathy for Twilight and is basically trying to give her the best advice she can for moving forward.

    This song talks about how everyone starts the same but as you grow up the more you realise that friendships aren't as you thought they were. When you move onto later grades you may deal with hard times like experiencing your friends leaving you and the only real way to cope with it is to learn that being alone is the only way to survive getting through life without having friends. It also mentions how you should open your eyes that this world isn't as you thought it was like you did when you were little... love this song, so meaningful with a strong message

      I think you're missing the big picture. Her view is incomplete.
      It's also what lead her to become cruel towards others.
      Twilights views on friendship were also incomplete at the start as well, but she learned that not everyone can be trusted and that even the closest friendships will always be tested.
      The two represent different views on friendship.
      But they BOTH learned that while perfect relationships arent possible, truly genuine connections will stand out from the others and outlive the challenged. They will be worth the trouble in the end.
      It's deeply sad to me that so many people relate to Tempest's viewpoint without understanding that this isn't all there is to real life.
      Yes in life there isn't exactly a dues ex machina to save you from trouble, and friendship isn't a magical rainbow blast that turns bad guys into stone. Yeah we get it, that's because stories are metaphors. We write them because we have something to say
      Making genuine and healthy long term connections with other peoppe IS real, POSSIBLE and BEAUTIFUL.
      It just takes a bit of work to get there. It's so worth it

      I found this song after having almost EVERYONE abandon me for being weird. And yet here I am, happy with my gf. My new friends. I feel happy with this friendship. She was wronged, and wants revenge. She's only the villain because of how she handled it.
      You need to remember that this problem is RELATABLE to many people out there.

    As an introverted and socially anxious person I've had a hard time with people, family and "friends" growing up. I really can't trust people anymore after a bunch of bad experiences and frankly it sucks because I do want to, but then I remember what happened when I did and with world as it is well... So I can relate to both Tempest and this song.

    Never thought a song in a kids movie could tell so much and be so deep.
    Unlike other villains, especially in MLP, tempest isn’t trying to gloat or make herself sound powerful. Her voice, the lyrics, it all sounds genuine.
    You can see how the experience she went through hurt her both physically and emotionally, she sounds both pained but also serious. While she is wrong, she’s also right in what she’s trying to say. There will be those people who when you really need them, they’ll just leave you, and we can’t change that, she is kind of in the same place as twilight in some aspects.
    Both were unicorns who believed in friendship but what makes tempest different is that she never experienced TRUE friendship like twilight did

  • @alison7989

    My Little Pony did very well with this. It show that people like Tempest aren't necessarily villains with evil intentions, they were victims with the mindset that they couldn't, can't, or don't need to be helped. Not only that, but they also teach that things that happen to you or said to you in your childhood forms into your mind well into adulthood. Tempest was betrayed when she stood up for her people, and since she chose to run away, that's all she ever knew.

    2. You can empathize with Tempest more than you can with some other characters (not saying other characters are bad) heres why she TELLS you what she felt, music for a lot of people is a great way to show emotion because it resonates with people and I love how it’s used here

      after being backstabbed all through middle school i became unable to trust. my mind made itself a mental block preventing me from allowing myself to be vulnerable and talk about things. because i learned in middle school a brutal lesson. you can't trust anyone with your secrets and emotions.
      too many times did i have my secrets and feelings i entrusted to those i thought my close friend turned into weapons against me. now even if i WANT to try to have deep friendship i can't because my mind won't let me go any further than surface level and inevitably all friendships i make just drift away like an unanchored boat drifting out to sea. i learned to be content with being alone, to even enjoy it. because the alternative is just pain.
      i can fully relate to the cynicism tempest has. the fact is while some may get to enjoy friendship all hunky dory. there are many others who are delegated to the status of outcast, of the punching bag.
      too long did i wait for that one friend i could actually trust and hold onto. too many timed did i make my self vulnerable to others. eventually i gave up waiting because i got tired of being broken down over and over. having my trust thrown in my face and used against me. tired of being hurt over and over and over.
      maybe if i had met SOMEONE in that hell things might have turned out differently but unfortunately that didn't happen and by the time i hit high school it was too late. i gave up. was there perhaps someone i could have had a genuine friendship with in high school? who knows. if there was then it is unfortunate but my heart is already encased in stone. protecting me from being hurt like that ever again....as well as preventing me from ever having a true friend. though honestly i will take a heart encased in stone over a true friend if getting a true friend requires me go through all that torment again.

    *SPOILERS AHEAD*
    Okay, so something that seems to be a main topic of the comments is that while Tempest declares her distrust in those around her, she trusts the Storm King.
    This assumption is false, however. Tempest had obviously banded with the "mighty" in her attempt to feel powerful again, and the Storm King pulled her in with the promise of her horn's return.
    So, technically, it was a business deal. I doubt Tempest's work with them was a permanent fix. However, after the King saw the ambition and strength she possessed, he knew what he would loose after she was given her horn.
    Yet the timing of his denial and him going back on his word was hideously wrong, and got him killed.
    TLDR; Tempest didn't trust the King,it was a shady business deal gone wrong.

  • @Doomsday-yo7lh
    @Doomsday-yo7lh 6 років тому +807

    I like how this movie portrays the overtly optimistic nature of the show. All the kind, optimistic stuff that the mane characters do, which would usually work in the show, only made things worse. And Tempest here seems to see their optimistic nature as “childish” as well.
    But while their philosophy is portrayed as naive, it’s not portrayed as WRONG. Because even if it caused nothing but trouble for them, the ponies touched many lives with their optimism. They inspired others with their bravery and kindness to become better people.
    And that’s the message of the film. Maybe optimism could be considered “childish”. Maybe it could be considered “naive”. Maybe it causes a lot of trouble for you.
    But you know what? It’s a hell of a lot better than just being a shitty person.

      You made a very remarkable statement.
      When you truly see the world in all its reality you will see it filled with corruption and evil. The world is unfair and unjust.
      People are pushed to the extreme to commit crimes to make their lives better than their miserable existence as nobody is born good or evil, They are made.
      The law can bend and break making the innocent be punished for crimes they did not commit and the guilty live as free as one can be.
      I want to change this world of ours for the better as Childish and Naive that dream could be at least I want to help Humanity and not just myself.
      P.S If you are religious then I am sorry, but I don't believe in God. as religion only use their Gods as a figurehead to manipulate others to do their bidding. They only divide and separate mankind more.
      I just wanted to make a point that even though I don't believe in mysticism and blind faith I still want to be a loving and understanding person.

      Sometimes you just have to rely on someone else. There are some things you cant do yourself and Tempest needed the Stormking to fix her horn -so she could be even more independent-.
      She tried to make sure that he would do as she asked by making a deal with him.
      If she gave him somehing he would give her something in return, right ?
      The problem was however that even something like that requires trust.
      I think this shows that you have to choose well who you trust. Just because she can't trust the Storm King doesnt mean she can't trust anyone. And just because she coudn't count on her friends as a child doesn't mean that she can't count on anyone at all.

      antiioxid [moved] That's how society has formed,from what has happened.Regardless of that, there are still people that don't want this society to stay and will stay different to change this society(the world may still be more corrupt but there are those that want to change it)

    Tempest is right I learned it the hard way... Here is my story ;
    When I was 19y old, I invited my friends at my house to party. Everything was going fine until I saw two of my buddies starting the Porsche in the garage and I told them to get off and to give me the keys. He told me, he'll put them back where he found them and I trusted him. What I was not realising is that they made me drink too much alcool that night and at a moment I was out for the night. What happens during the time I slept during my hangover will shock you !
    Turns out they made me drink on purpose to have a free ride while I was asleep with the Porsche from my stepdad. They thought they could just do it behind my back, smooth as they were and I wouldn't realise anything. They had an accident, wrecked the car and fled the crash site. I had police, firemen and ambulance at my house while I was in hangover. I wake up on morning at 9 a.m to see my house not even cleaned and the Porsche missing in the garage. I was speechless, I wasn't even angry on the moment and I was glad they were safe but this betrayal hurt me deeply.
    After that, they told everyone that I was the antagonist, that I made them take the car and have a ride and that I was the villain trying to sabotage their reputation afterwards for what they did to me and you know what ? Most believed them because I was not more popular than them. I was the "nice" friend of many and after that I wanted revenge for all of that which most likely rewarded their efforts to make me the villain.
    In a span of two weeks, I lost all my "friends", my family didn't want to have anything to do with me and kicked me out of the house, my best friend told me "I told you so" insulted me and left me to rot. I didnt had an easy childhood before this incident and I was for once again in my life, alone in this world and it wasn't my doing. I always chose the wrong people in my life.
    Now at 27 years old, I'm left broken, depressed, couldn't find a girl since then because of depression anger and trust issues and I haven't had a genuine talk with a real friend forever since then. I just accepted that I'll be alone for the rest of my life. Life is not fair, I get that.
    I see red, I want revenge for what they did to me because now I'm alone, I can't find joy and happiness in life because I'm always by myself. I can't keep friends because I'm too desperate for friendship that I make everyone run away.
    Chose your friends wisely people.
    Most of us don't have a second chance in this lifetime.

      Magic nullifcation/magic-proof things are to be expected. Any villain worth their salt would have SOMETHING magic-proof/magic nullifying. How the hell are you supposed to gather up the gall to attack _goddesses_ if you don't at least try to nullify what makes them most powerful? If you take away their magic, you have a more even playing field--especially since Tempest has only one real magical ability.
      Some villains had no magic nullifying powers like King Sombra, Discord, and the Changling Queen, but they were both very skilled in magic and Discord is, in all rights, the lord of chaos. Come on. He would've been able to turn the tides on this battle _easily._ Which is why he wasn't here.

    • @theexchipmunk
      @theexchipmunk 6 років тому +21

      Discord by any means has the powers of a Q. He can do whatever he wants. There is only very little that could stop him, like for example a super weapon specially designed by a just as powerful being to do exactly that. ;)

    • @VenomQuill
      @VenomQuill 6 років тому +31

      If you're talking about the orbs Tempest used to turn the princesses to stone, yeah, maybe. But what I'm saying is that he lives in another dimension, can take away the wings and horns of ponies on a whim, reverse reality, open dimensions to entirely different realities, and control chaos. Had Discord been there (Which he should've been, literally everyone was invited), this whole movie wouldn't have lasted too long. Considering he can become objects, teleport, change size, and shape-shift with his only weaknesses being the power of friendship and harmony (which ironically become strengths for him to use), I see no reason for Discord not being able to at least _rally_ them. In fact, if Discord hadn't betrayed the ponies, he'd have eradicated Tirek's entire line of plans and put him back in Tarturus. Princess Cellestia panicked when Princess Cadence was petrified, and thus scattered everyone to find help. But if Discord was there, I doubt she'd have panicked and gotten Luna to single hoofedly find an entire kingdom that vanished.
      But that's also the reason he's not there: his presence would've been a serious obstacle in the Storm King's plan, dramatically changing the easiest way to move along the plot. Discord would have no reason to accompany them in their quest to find the Hippogriffs, wouldn't betray Fluttershy for the Storm King, and would have been a serious obstacle when trying to capture the princesses, AAAAAAAND he would've done a great song about it, because Discord's songs are the best and this movie had its share of music numbers.
