Description
The new My Little Pony movie contains many background ponies more than once, even in one shot.
Thats not really the point. a 3d model is much more expensive in time-consuming than a Flash puppet
However more disappointing is the fact how “whole” Maretime Bay is just a single block.
If you pay attention you may notice that Sunny goes back’n’forth + teleports during the song, and during the escape with Izzy they run around the same block only to escape to the lighthouse after that. Problem is that Izzy came from the side where the lighthouse is at. So they could have just run straight to the lighthouse, but they went deeper into the town instead.

Like G4, G5 will flounder for three-ish years, as I had said earlier, before getting a big ass pile of revenue to spend on
illegal substanceshigher quality special effects, assets, and special guest voice actors.Edited
Gen 4 was CGI too, just in 2D instead of 3D.
(As far as I know G4 was made using Flash.)
The one that caught my eye was the salmon-coated red-headed mare (or should I say mares since there were two of her?).
So it “is” a budget thing.
To be fair, CGI animations are expensive.
Three separate times in Maretime scenes as I recall. I’d provide timestamps, but I, uh, don’t want to. X3
Shockingly I found a derpy looking g5 character, I just can’t recall where I saw it.
Aham they’re changed, like literally.

its a common practice in animation
