Season 8 Episode Discussion [Spoilers, possible leaks, rumours etc.]

Backpedal harder  
You’re wrong and have no idea what you’re talking about

@Josh103  
What are you talking about?

There will be no accountability, tho.
 
I very much doubt Hasbro will even bother doing ANYTHING to the fools that entered the ftp server through insecure connections.
 
It will be a waste of money and not accomplish ANYTHING. It will deffinitely not help find the actual leaker, who has been dancing around them for months.

I kinda don’t want G5 to be CGI.

|| I thought they said that only the movie would be cgi? G5 is still supposed to be 2d. ||

Eh, it depends entirely on the models/designs they come up with. If they play their cards right, they could get some impressive rigs and animation.
 
As someone that liked the Disney Fairies franchise and Sofia The First, I’m curious as to what they can come up with.
 
They might go for a RID cellshaded style. Maybe they’ll work some serious shader support and actually render fur. I wouldn’t even be opposed to the style of the simple models used in youtube. Some can work magic with those. It could go in many directions.
 
Also, there’s no guarrantee it will end up 3D. They are barely in the concept art stage.

Anything more was leaked?

Why is Spike just now getting good episodes?

@Background Pony #B01B
 
Why does it matter? Just be happy they exist for you now.

@ice1517  
That is the case.

@gingerninja666  
That’s why I wish they would drop this stupid crush shit.

@gingerninja666  

 
But of course

@Applejack007
 
I was being facetious btw. Not that what i said is entirely untrue of course.

@Applejack007  
Can’t say you’re wrong: too much good writing and Spike’s episodes that could’ve been used in far more interesting situations have ended up deep into that bootomless pit without changing the status quo one damn bit.

(Poses for the camera) WheeEEEeee!

Where can the Leaked episode be found?

@Solar’s Wrath  
4chan, if you search well enough.
 
Some might still be on youtube.

Well the episode list is kind of disappointing… No stand out or stand alone episodes for Twilight… Just a side character or working with somepony else or just there… Season 7 was improving after Season 6 but now we’re back to Season 6 standards thanks to Haber and Vogel being back… Plus Horse Play so far is the best out of the leaked episodes…

@Background Pony #B233
 
Heck, only three synopses mention Starlight, and it seems like she won’t be taking over the premieres and finales once again.
 
An improvement as far as I know, but still, there does seem to be… I dunno, a change of priorities?

@Poison Trail  
Four

Question: so if it was up to you how would you write the final episode? how would you conclude 9 years of FIM?

@Poison Trail  
One of the episodes is about Twilight leaving Starlight in charge of the school, with Discord feeling offended because he wasn’t chosen despite being around way before Starlight, so he decides to sabotage her lessons out of spite. All of this screams being another “Meta” episode about fans who still haven’t learned to love and accept Starlight, and we all know what happens when DHX tries to do Meta stuff to adress things they are sore about
