Still unused to the idea that I’m a problem poster. Most of my time on the Interwebz involved far rowdier forums, so my contributions were barely noticeable. Still, I’ll stop now. Sorry.

That is not what I said. What I said is that professionals know what concepts will fit into the story and which ones will detract from it better then fans.

He was talking about the show, not the movie.

This Movie is a High Fantasy epic though, continent spanning journey and dark lords and Darth Vader Archetypes and all. So yeah, Dane’s still has a point. :/

@Ihhh  
I’m criticizing the fact that you felt the need to make this critique in the first place. It’s merely a difference in visual tastes, something purely subjective. You have every right to call him out on this, just like I have every right to call you out on this, and likewise you have every right to call us out for engaging with you to begin with. I see no hypocrisy here.

@Ihhh
No, seriously, someone said he preferred an old design of something over the final design, and you decided to start a debate and make it seem like him having preferences was a moral failing. There’s a reason you have two duck badges.
 
You seemed to ignore this, because you’re whole “You’re not a professional, thus you’re not allowed an opinion!” spiel (which, by the by, is called the Appeal to Authority Fallacy) reeks of this.

@Ihhh
i was less engaging and more defending from our accusations of me wanting the whole movie to change just because i expressed my preference of the original concept of klugetown which i never even implied in any of my comments.
 
Yes you did:  
The overall narrative would have been different to account for this being the final product.
 
You may not have meant to do it, but it’s not my fault for misinterpreting poor wording.  
your entire “argument” was based on the assumption from the beginning that i wanted the movie to change just to fit what i wanted, which is false.
 
If you didn’t want the movie to change, why are you complaining? The whole reason people complain is because they don’t like the way something is and want it to change.  
its also flawed in the fact that you are arguing with me over my personal preferences
 
When you post your opinion online in a public forum, you’re inviting people to respond. Sometimes those responses will disagree with you, and you have to accept that. If you don’t want people to express their disagreement with you, don’t post.
 
@Daneasaur  
MLP is not a high fantasy epic. It’s a slice of life show with occasional action adventure elements. The show is about it’s characters, not it’s lore. Frankly, I’d rather have the backstory given in a clear and concise manner then waste time with tons of pointless exposition dumps.

@dynamicv  
Because the first two episodes that explain equestria are on constant repeat and are viewable on every media device that exists? Because the background of equestria was summed up in less than 5 minutes in the opening of the first episode?
 
That is super cheap to do instead of something that properly worldbuilds or expands the lore that is already there.

You were calling me out for engaging in a debate, which is hypocritical when my opponent engages as well. And you did not criticize my criticism itself anywhere in your comments afaik.

Who said anything about being selective? I’m arguing we have the right to criticize. That includes you’re right to criticize me, as well as my right to criticize you critique.
 
Edit: And if this is about the Duck Badge thing, that was just me being a smartass. I know full well this stupid little debate ain’t worth Duck Badges. Otherwise I’d have gotten one ages ago.

You’re not the professionals. These people have been working in the industry for years. They have a much better understanding of what ideas are important to a story then any non-professional fan, no matter how dedicated said fan is.
 
@Darth Sonic  
When someone responds to an argument with another argument, they are choosing to engage in debate. When both partied have engaged in debate, calling out one for being argumentative is hypocritical. If muttonbash has a right to express his opinion on this concept art, I have a right to express my opinion on his post. You can’t be selective about who gets to express their opinions and which opinions they get to express, only how they choose to word those opinions. Also, try to look into how I actually earned my badges before you make assumptions.

That’s true. And we also have every right to say ideas that end up on the cutting room floor shouldn’t be there, and vice versa.

SCORPAN MY BOY! He looks pretty different from the redesign he had in the comics and the S4 finale storybook. Maybe they were gonna tweak this design a lil’ or it’s because of the movie’s style change. Or maybe that’s just gargoyle puberty for ya.

@MuttonBash  
Why should the writers alter the entire story just to suit your own personal interests? Ans why are you projecting emotions on to me? I have expressed no emotion in my text, and you yourself are choosing to engage with me, so how can you accuse me of being triggered without accusing yourself?
