I’m crying from the line “this have got to be the ugliest character in the whole show, I not sure who designed her, but they should be fired immediately.”
Not to mention there are so many questions and issues this evil Alicorn, a PHYSICAL Alicorn, unlike Sunny, even existing brings up. Granted, it does prove Sawtooth Waves's theory that ANYPONY can become one, evil or good, but where has this evil Alicorn been all this time and, if she knew ponies needed to be in harmony for magic to return and is therefore fully aware magic will go away again when harmony is ended after she enacts whatever evil plan she has in mind... how does she not see that is a massive flaw in whatever her evil plan is?
That, and it was forced in your face in a very artificial way, too. I personally think that they should put story as the priority with lesson following instead of the other way around. It's like they forgot how to do storylines properly, like they did in G4.
I had a hard time watching it because oh how weirdly saturated the movie was compared to the previous one , like it feels like they unnecessarily cracked up the saturation, but also how most the conversations feel weirdly robotic and empty. They also completely changed the voice cast so it sounds even weirder. It just pales in comparison to the first if we talk about natural flowing conversation, as well as character development. It was so hard to watch this cause it felt so many different kinds of wrong.
Was mentioned in another video within the MLP community, but the difference in animation saturation might be due to the lighting engine being downscaled or used improperly. The models look like they've been ripped straight from the movie, you can see the detailing in Zipp's feathers as she flies, save for a few changes like Izzy's hair (which is likely also due to budget as it is a particle effect that costs more to render the longer it is). It's a long video, but if you want to learn more I'd recommend DJTHED's video. He's a 3D modeller and animator that has worked on the G5 game.
It's absolutely the fault of whoever thought it was a good idea to hire the other actors in the first place, who have recognizable faces and were definitely not on the budget long term
I couldn't get past the first few minutes due to the animation being horrendous. If you watch the wider shots, as one pony is talking and moving they may have most of the movie counterparts movements and mannerisms, but the rest that aren't the active pony in the shot or dialogue, they end up having very little movement. With 3d animation, you don't animate all of the characters or assets at the same time, you do them separately using separate models and setting key frames that way. Its very basic animation knowledge to know the character's mannerisms and general behaviour before you animate them, because it sticks out like a sore thumb when you don't, especially when they're preexisting like in this case. It's clear that the animators haven't done that and seeing as it's meant to follow on from the movie directly, its even more noticeable. Take into account that shots with one pony only have much better range in movements, it tells me either it was rushed, or whoever was hired never worked with 3d animation software before. I have seen better fan animations that included at least breathing or some natural movement like shifting weight and following movement of other characters. I know what you mean about the saturation, its like a different animation software was used and it couldn't produce the same colours. Or someone was eyeballing it and thought good enough without considering lighting, I've been caught out that way before when drawing, thinking I have the right colour and when I eyedropper the colour it was way off.
Can we just talk about how god damn ugly the backgrounds and the animation is? It’s so gray and the city feels abandoned. In gen 4, all of the city locations were filled with pony’s in the background like an actual city and it felt so alive and thriving. Here, it’s the complete oposite. Gen 5 already looks like a mess and it’s only put into existence because…money😒
And sunny is kind of the new ruler of the three races not really official now but i feel like it will be later on . And hitch is in charge of the police department. The only one who doesn't have a big name job is izzy.
Funfact: horse hooves are, in fact, pretty heat-resistant. Some people prefer to prep horse's hooves for shoeing by desinfecting them with red-hot metal horseshoe, causing absolutly zero pain whatsoever.
What bothers me most about G5 in general is that there is absolutly no reason why it is connected with G4 other than using G4s popularity to sell it. When I saw the storm rising in the climax I hoped for some G4 continuity, like the Windigos appearing due to the tribes hatred to one another. Instead we get a weird void that isn´t explained *at all* . The same with the magic, which goes completly against what G4 established. I mean even when they fought an actual civil war amongs the races, they still had their respectiv magic and they probably had it before they even knew there were other pony races. I don´t kow if this gets explained in later episodes, but for me it makes absolutly no sense why magic is now completly tied to friendship and no friendship means no magic, while friendship in G4 only acted as sort of a catalyst to combine/strenghen their magic. G5 would be way better if they either made it a completly new universe with new rules or if they had some actual continuety instead of only dropping the mane 6 names/cutie-marks a few times and show what´s basicly just easter-eggs without any purpose.
@@Pandie2828 To be fair, it took Chrysalis just a few rumours to plunge the whole of Canterlot into a full on race war, while the Mane 6 were still around. So it wouldn´t be too unexpected that over a few centuries they would forget all about Friendship, after the Mane 6 stopped beeing around. It still feels like lazy writing, thou.
I thought it was explained in the comic? If i recall right, according to that the races started to fight again, due some underlying discourse cause by a mysterious unicorn. Due to that Twilight (for some reason) decided to seal magic in an artifact and it would only give everyone their magic back if they got along.
@@DizzyDoduo I didn't read the comic and I think such a mayor plotpoint should also be introduced in the mainshow, especialy since hasbro made clear that the comics aren't canon in the cartoon and are to be treated as seperat universes.
Off the top of my head before the video is out: The animation. Izzy’s new, less cute voice. Too many subplots. The characters refuse to believe Zipp for literally no valid reason. The villain’s random oc generator design. I really did not like this after how decent the first movie was.
It is true, "Make Your Mark" has it's flaws and some things could've been done better. but it was still a fun special to watch and i kinda can't wait to find out the story of that new Alicorn villain just as i can't wait to see what kind of story arcs the new dragon Sparky Sparkeroni will have as the series continues.
Imo, these are the two things that bothered me most 1. The animation was weird and VERY oversaturated. I had to turn my brightness down to watch the movie 2. They didn't even try to make Izzy's new VA sound like her old one. Maybe they shouldn't hire a celebrity with a unique voice and then immediately not rehire them if they actually wanted to convince anyone
There's one line that I find off. "Maretime Bay used to be the place just us earth ponies lived. Just like how unicorns ALWAYS lived in Bridlewood, and pegasi NEVER left Zephyr Heights" I'm certain not ALL of them lived in ONLY those three places. Can't wait to see a full map of this evolved Equestria so we can be sure. I also kinda hate how when the magic fails, the pegasi just plummet like there was NO wind lifting them at all.
actually this is accurate. from when we first join the g5 era the 3 races were segregated and did not traverse to the other lands. maretime bay WAS exclusive to earth ponies. Zephyr to pegasus and unicorns to the forest. they didnt leave their set lands
@@beccacroce7380 it is odd but maybe there is that we dont know of? (Like g4 crystal empire) then again a LOT seems to have happened. Lotta land was likely lost to some tragic event. But through the eyes of our cast there is only the 3 lands
It also can't be true that nopony went outside the 3 areas when Argyle would've needed to go beyond Maretime Bay to get most of the Ancient Equestrian artefacts he has at the beginning of the movie
Whats bothering me is that they gave sunny stage fright as if in the movie she didnt jump in front of the canterlogic meeting to talk to the whole town and did that multiple times like- she has no issue with public speaking why was she so nervous to talk on a stream
To help you understand: The speech in the movie was planned. The livestream, on the other hoof, wasn’t planned, as Pipp literally just went, “Okay, Sunny! I’m going to start the stream without giving you time to prepare!” So that’s why Sunny hesitated before she spoke.
@@sakurasarchive I used to have a similar thing actually. I love acting and being on stage, but as soon as was staring into a camera lense, I freaked out. Performing in front of a LIVE audience was and is easier for me than being in a video and definitely easier than a live stream. It took a lot of pushing myself to relax on camera.
Maybe Sunny got a massive payout from her insurance plus an out-of-court settlement from Canterlogic since it was Canterlogic tech which destroy her house? Plus the mane cast literally has two princess in it so they're not exactly all typical working class ponies in the first place.
@6:00 Ah, you missed a sin: they couldn't keep it consistent whether the Posie's mailbox was knocked down or still upright---it was upright in one shot in between Izzy knocking it over and then re-planting it with magic.
The animation is the part that made me stop watching within a few minutes. They're animated actions seems to act like emotes from a game. Take Izzy's excited expression from 2:48. It's so stiff, and it just goes back to her being still. From the movie, you would think Izzy would said something like, "Great!" with her little giggle afterwards. But it's just one action that is so bland that just annoyed me. But, in Hasbro's defense, this might've been thier first time making an 3d animated series. I feel though, as they had rushed the animators, because such things like secondary actions are forgotten even though those principles were clearly used in the mlp:FIM. It could've also been due to a lack of study with 3d animation. The amount of time that had passed between the making of Mlp: New Generation and this series was really only a month or two. Not to forget they are also making the youtube animated series (which is animated like gametoons). They weren't given enough time to make the animation smoother, and were possibly paid less wage. Like most animation projects that fall flat, these are the main reasons why. Even the writing, as some people mentioned, is confusing and tasteless. The voice actors are changes apparently, and the characters are practically given different personalities. I could pint out more but I want to watch the rest of the video.
8:10 Why is no one talking about the " magic might be unpredictable, but it's not dangerous" part? Sunny, my girl... Magic, especially FRIENDSHIP powered magic it's a power source capable of shooting rainbow lasers that can and WILL destroy...ANYONE?? (enemies, hopefully) Girlie, your magic is capable of destruction
"Maybe there's something in the RUclips Shorts that explains why they have a McMansion" Nope. They show how Zipp, Pipp, and Izzy move from their towns to Maretime Bay, they show how they paint and furnish their Crystal Brighthouse. But no explanation where it come from, who built it, etc. Nada.
I literally cried watching the episode last night because how much they wrecked MLPS. The writing is terrible, the 3d models are wonky, the alicorn wings and horn look like fairy plastic for toys, they speak like they're trying to be "lit fam". Like when one of them said "fo sho" i died a little inside. The unicorn is basically a failed pinkie pie, the rainbow dash lookin princess pegasus is at least slightly redeemable but her morives make no sense. The way thw ponies hold things looks like poorly placed magnets. The dragon made me start to bawl my eyes out because of how hideous it was. Also why did the officer pony try to hide the egg? It would have been more interesting having the ponies ooh and ahh over it. The idea was okay but it was too rished. I could go on, but i could be here all day, and i feel depressed and empty about how dumb the episode is. The random cut to a villain? Stupid.
Absolutely agreed, like comparing season 1 of G4 to this it’s just astounding how much the writing has plummeted and the fact that an *episode* of G4 handles the “pony races hate each other” storyline better than 2 movies has made me lose all hope 😞
17:47 i was literally thinking this while watching this ep too lmao she isn't sorry she was just jealous and now that she has powers of her own, she just doesn't have anything to be jealous of so until i see actual change to her character I don't like her
Pegasi have hollow bones and thinner hair with incredibly strong wings, so their very light compared to your typical 200-1000lb pony. Also of course they would use their hooves to pick up hot objects, there’s no nerve endings it’s basically a giant nail. It doesn’t hurt at all.
The pegasi don’t fly using physics, they fly using magic, so their anatomy wouldn’t need to be all that different unless stated otherwise. The hooves part is true though.
@@torakokoneko In real life there are skydiving simulation machines that use powerful fans to make people fly in place. I think it’s possible in the movie as well.
9:11 Why didn't you count the fact that they had no trouble catching their phones as a sin ? When your phone slips like that it's not that easy to catch it. I think unicorns are British, yeah they lack the accent but since they love tea.
Well I mean the fact Canterlot is the captial of equestria in gen 4 and it's based on Camelot and the fact in gen 4 the majority of the nobility were based on victorian English yeah I think gen 4 Equestria is bassicly Victorian England.
The makeovers were not taking place in the Brighthouse (the McMansion). The scene was set in the Merry Melodies hair salon that was confusing you so much earlier. Oh, and the word you were looking for was "pseudo" (not "sudu"). Izzy is the pseudo Pinkie Pie.
Im surprised nobody else is bothered how Zipp puts those two ponies ON the train tracks at the begging. Like, Zipp, you're followed by guards all damn day long, you should know a thing about safety or two...
you shouldnt have to watch it to make sense of a movie. also i found the series few episodes I did watch rather annoying, didn't like the style either.
oh, hoof magic, remember when sunset comes through the mirror to get a replacement book and... can't remember how hooves work and can't pick it up... so she's reminded, she's a unicorn just us magic... LOL. Poor girl was a human so long she forgot how hooves work.
Yeah I’m extremely happy I didn’t watch this- jeez the writing is so clunky and that alicorn at the end is the ugliest canonical pony design I’ve ever seen
16:56 Windy: "Since it doesn't look like we're going anywhere - Well, we *are* going somewhere. Alarmingly fast, actually. - but since we're not busy other than that, here's a couple of facts"
Okay so I think I have an explanation as to why unicorns have such a hyperfixation with tea. So unicorns are the mages of the pony universe, which would be a real world parallel to wicca, which is what the majority of magic portrayed in media is based on. In wicca, there is a specific type of magic called tasseomancy, which is the ability to divine the future through the arrangement of tea leaves (think of Professor Trelawney's class in the third Harry Potter film). Another use for tea in witchcraft is to cure various ailments (another HP analogy, think of Neville's skill in herbology), so the combination of the two purposes of tea used for mystical purposes may be a sort of charm to bring about good fortune for the future and to purify the sins of the past. Or maybe I'm coming up with a bullshit explanation for some random detail which may have absolutely nothing to do with the story 😅
at 14:33 they're not at sunny's house, they're at pipp's salon. there's no reason to sin that. it's pretty obvious that they're not at sunny's house when they run outside 30 seconds later...
in the original my little pony earth ponies never had magic but all of a sudden when earth ponies want magic they just have it? how does that even work? all the ponies got along in the original just fine and the earth ponies never had magic what so ever but when everything goes to shit and everyone becomes racist its only then when the problem is solved that they get magic
The Spike plush already appeared in Sunny's room in the A New Generation movie, so this is just confirmation that she didn't throw it away when she got older
My favorite jank scene was after they cook the pizza and all take one bite before all evidence of it ever existing in the first place vanishes in the following shot 5 seconds later.
14:30 that is not in their Mcmansion. It is literally the salon/karaoke bar you said was a stupid idea earlier. and you are right, it is a stupid idea.
Considering the town probably rebuilt because their prejudice was caused the old one to be destroyed they didn't have to afford it. And although it is nice it is not like it is a palace. Plus twilight uses live in a library.
@@theresahall5141 The RUclips shorts showed they built it themselves, not the town. I suppose they town could have funded it, but it could have also been a combination. The town might have raised as much money as they could and the princesses funded the rest.
🤣😭☕️ 6:28-6:40 LMAO. I love the hilarious comments and rationality of the “sin counter”. This was so much fun to watch and make fun of this movie alongside the “sin counter”!
Okay I see what you are saying here but... Did you know that owls fly without makeing noises? Oh and pipp probably packed her stuff in her room! And moved to meratimebay that's why her room looks simple and blank! And everypony is still learning to learn there abilities! They just got there majic and it takes time for peguses to learn to fly not odematicly like rainbow Dash! Silly!
in my opinion, the old mlp is better is just the 3D animation isn't working and some of common sense in mlp is gone tbh I want the old mlp back bc there are some questions that arent answered you guys understand right?
It seems this special shows that G5 isn't a sequel to G4, it ignores most of the plot from the movie. Also, where are Sprout and his mom? Neither of them are seen or mentioned in Make Your Mark.
@moliminous The Melody Scissors is a sign for their barber shop called Mane Melody. The makeover scene happens here too at Mane Melody not in their "mansion" xD ... if you watch the trashly animated youtube series... it shows you backstory to all these things in the later episodes.
about the possible villain appearing at the end of the movie its probably a reference to character out of the comics i dont know her name right now but she was the one who was with sombra and also admired chrysailis since their color palettes do seem very similar
Hey, guys quick question. Whatever happened to moliminous other channels? I remembered there was a "Moliminous2" channel but sadly I could not find it. Were all the videos from Moliminous2 deleted or just transferred elsewhere? Would love to hear your thoughts.
After how much fun of a ride the movie was, this short was just soooo many levels of bad. It’s so painfully obvious how little their budget was and how many corners they cut in ALL aspects of this. This is what Hasbro gets when they bucking fire all of their good artists, modelers, and animators.
17:32 WHY DOES IT HAVE WINGS?? DON’T DRAGONS GET WINGS FROM PUBERTY CRAP. ALSO DIDN’T EARTH PONIES ALREADY HAVE MAGIC ORIGINALLY? THEIR STRENGTH OR SOMETHING?

I think the worst part is that it was the exact same lesson as the movie "don't be racist and you'll get magic"
To be fair theyve been racist for a good thousand+ years. So they got some unlearning to do

The voice actors are changes apparently, and the characters are practically given different personalities. I could pint out more but I want to watch the rest of the video.
8:10
Why is no one talking about the " magic might be unpredictable, but it's not dangerous" part?
Sunny, my girl...
Magic, especially FRIENDSHIP powered magic it's a power source capable of shooting rainbow lasers that can and WILL destroy...ANYONE?? (enemies, hopefully)
Girlie, your magic is capable of destruction
"Maybe there's something in the RUclips Shorts that explains why they have a McMansion"
Nope. They show how Zipp, Pipp, and Izzy move from their towns to Maretime Bay, they show how they paint and furnish their Crystal Brighthouse. But no explanation where it come from, who built it, etc. Nada.
I literally cried watching the episode last night because how much they wrecked MLPS. The writing is terrible, the 3d models are wonky, the alicorn wings and horn look like fairy plastic for toys, they speak like they're trying to be "lit fam". Like when one of them said "fo sho" i died a little inside. The unicorn is basically a failed pinkie pie, the rainbow dash lookin princess pegasus is at least slightly redeemable but her morives make no sense. The way thw ponies hold things looks like poorly placed magnets. The dragon made me start to bawl my eyes out because of how hideous it was. Also why did the officer pony try to hide the egg? It would have been more interesting having the ponies ooh and ahh over it. The idea was okay but it was too rished. I could go on, but i could be here all day, and i feel depressed and empty about how dumb the episode is. The random cut to a villain? Stupid.
Agreed.
I wish they just stopped with g4. I get its Hasbro, so "BUY OUR TOYS!!" But still.
Absolutely agreed, like comparing season 1 of G4 to this it’s just astounding how much the writing has plummeted and the fact that an *episode* of G4 handles the “pony races hate each other” storyline better than 2 movies has made me lose all hope 😞
Yeah I wanted to cry when I saw that dragon- it's really ugly.
10 years of work...
17:47 i was literally thinking this while watching this ep too lmao she isn't sorry she was just jealous and now that she has powers of her own, she just doesn't have anything to be jealous of so until i see actual change to her character I don't like her
Pegasi have hollow bones and thinner hair with incredibly strong wings, so their very light compared to your typical 200-1000lb pony. Also of course they would use their hooves to pick up hot objects, there’s no nerve endings it’s basically a giant nail. It doesn’t hurt at all.
The pegasi don’t fly using physics, they fly using magic, so their anatomy wouldn’t need to be all that different unless stated otherwise. The hooves part is true though.
@@AngelVazquez-vs9xp fair, I forgot they got their wing power from magic (which is ironically the entire movie)
@@moseptyagami606 they're still light enough to be blown up into the air by a fan without magic, zipp does that in the movie
@@torakokoneko I forgot that as well. Possibly both are correct.. hollow bones like birds yet still a bit to heavy for their smaller wings
@@torakokoneko In real life there are skydiving simulation machines that use powerful fans to make people fly in place. I think it’s possible in the movie as well.
The way the characters emote gives me Jimmy Neutron flashbacks. 😂
Ha
"to casually assassinate the princesses" you mean the princesses that aren't in the castle? the ones in maretime bay? unguarded? those princesses?
9:11 Why didn't you count the fact that they had no trouble catching their phones as a sin ? When your phone slips like that it's not that easy to catch it.
I think unicorns are British, yeah they lack the accent but since they love tea.
I think the unicorns are supposed to Kinda be like magical hipsters (living in a magic forest and all) so the tea obsession is kinda a joke
Well I mean the fact Canterlot is the captial of equestria in gen 4 and it's based on Camelot and the fact in gen 4 the majority of the nobility were based on victorian English yeah I think gen 4 Equestria is bassicly Victorian England.
Earth pony hooves were attacked because that's where the magick is channeled through. Like how unicorn horns & Pegasi wings were affected too.
Are we not gonna address how no dragon's have been seen in generations? What on earth happened between gen 4 and 5?
there was an antidragonic dictatorship that exterminated them (?)
12:44 there was so much rage there😂😂🤣
10:22 That unicorn looks like Twilight, with the purple skin at least.
He keeps sinning that their rich and he's confused why but does he forget that Pipp and Zipp are LITTERAL FUCKING PRINCESSES. They probably have money
I have concluded that the mlp make your marks first episode is nothing more than a recreated version of the canterlot wedding.
The makeovers were not taking place in the Brighthouse (the McMansion). The scene was set in the Merry Melodies hair salon that was confusing you so much earlier. Oh, and the word you were looking for was "pseudo" (not "sudu"). Izzy is the pseudo Pinkie Pie.
Im surprised nobody else is bothered how Zipp puts those two ponies ON the train tracks at the begging. Like, Zipp, you're followed by guards all damn day long, you should know a thing about safety or two...
Is it just me or the Alicorn-sticker looks a lot like Izzy?
I see it as well-
After seeing this, looks like I don't need to watch it anymore. Thank u very much Faith! See u on your stream! 💜
You're not even gonna sin a lot of the cheap animation or the CAROUSEL being mistaken for a lantern?
Okay
the carousel is a lantern ! in the movie it lights up ♥️☺️
The dragon has wings and is more like a pet than another character
4:35 Yes the G5 mlp have 5G cellular networks and most likely the G4 mlp has cellular but it's 4G or LTE
9:58 "So she's willing to talk to Hitch about it, but not Sunny. Why is her character so insecure now?" It's because she likes him ;)
The fact that Moliminous didn't watch the tell your tale series (at least the 10 first episodes) makes me sad :(
you shouldnt have to watch it to make sense of a movie. also i found the series few episodes I did watch rather annoying, didn't like the style either.
i watched first 3 episodes of tyt and then stopped with it bcs of how bad it was
oh, hoof magic, remember when sunset comes through the mirror to get a replacement book and... can't remember how hooves work and can't pick it up... so she's reminded, she's a unicorn just us magic... LOL.
Poor girl was a human so long she forgot how hooves work.
I thought that it would be sunny who will be trying to answer all the questions on what happened between g4 to g5
At 4:25, what the hell is that walk cycle on the green pony? His front legs are trotting but his back legs are glued together and just hopping along
My 3 year old found this so I started watching it. The narrator is fucking hilarious! He has my tears😂☠️😂
10:00 BECAUSE SHE HAS A CRUSH ON HIM!
Yeah I’m extremely happy I didn’t watch this- jeez the writing is so clunky and that alicorn at the end is the ugliest canonical pony design I’ve ever seen
Are we not talking about how the green spa pony has like no ears until AFTER pip sings?
16:56 Windy: "Since it doesn't look like we're going anywhere - Well, we *are* going somewhere. Alarmingly fast, actually. - but since we're not busy other than that, here's a couple of facts"
The dragon is a little abomination
1:45 Because she moved out. Why leave her things in a room she won't be using?
Okay so I think I have an explanation as to why unicorns have such a hyperfixation with tea. So unicorns are the mages of the pony universe, which would be a real world parallel to wicca, which is what the majority of magic portrayed in media is based on. In wicca, there is a specific type of magic called tasseomancy, which is the ability to divine the future through the arrangement of tea leaves (think of Professor Trelawney's class in the third Harry Potter film). Another use for tea in witchcraft is to cure various ailments (another HP analogy, think of Neville's skill in herbology), so the combination of the two purposes of tea used for mystical purposes may be a sort of charm to bring about good fortune for the future and to purify the sins of the past.
Or maybe I'm coming up with a bullshit explanation for some random detail which may have absolutely nothing to do with the story 😅
at 14:33 they're not at sunny's house, they're at pipp's salon. there's no reason to sin that. it's pretty obvious that they're not at sunny's house when they run outside 30 seconds later...
Guess I'll wait til this happens- can't wait :3
in the original my little pony earth ponies never had magic but all of a sudden when earth ponies want magic they just have it? how does that even work? all the ponies got along in the original just fine and the earth ponies never had magic what so ever but when everything goes to shit and everyone becomes racist its only then when the problem is solved that they get magic
5:16 Isn't anyone going to point out that Posey's door has a DOORKNOB?
I am supprised you never mentioned the backward bending legs. I mean are they double jointed?
Is it just me or did I see a spike plush?- 9:30
The Spike plush already appeared in Sunny's room in the A New Generation movie, so this is just confirmation that she didn't throw it away when she got older
Hm... Never knew that
ok I just noticed this,
9:31 SPIKE PLUSHIE
My favorite jank scene was after they cook the pizza and all take one bite before all evidence of it ever existing in the first place vanishes in the following shot 5 seconds later.
If Izzie had said “ta-da!” one more time in this movie, I would’ve screamed.
14:30 that is not in their Mcmansion. It is literally the salon/karaoke bar you said was a stupid idea earlier. and you are right, it is a stupid idea.
Moliminous: "The lighthouse is extravagant af and it makes no sense.
Two of Sunny's friends: Literal royalty
Hmm, I wonder how they afforded it?
Considering the town probably rebuilt because their prejudice was caused the old one to be destroyed they didn't have to afford it. And although it is nice it is not like it is a palace. Plus twilight uses live in a library.
@@theresahall5141 The RUclips shorts showed they built it themselves, not the town. I suppose they town could have funded it, but it could have also been a combination. The town might have raised as much money as they could and the princesses funded the rest.
You know they dumbed it down so the bronies would scram
Look i love this but one small mistake: Earth ponies DO have magic which would explain thier strength
🤣😭☕️ 6:28-6:40 LMAO. I love the hilarious comments and rationality of the “sin counter”. This was so much fun to watch and make fun of this movie alongside the “sin counter”!
9:29 r.i.p. Spike plushie.
The animated movement of ponies clash with all the background settings they make contact with.
would their Twitter be Trotter?
great video
havent seen you in a while and omg, love the new avatar looki
super cute
Talking about them being too rich for what their jobs show and, I mean, 2 of them are princesses lol
honestly the animation is super jarring in general for the whole 45 minutes or so it lasted
Okay I see what you are saying here but... Did you know that owls fly without makeing noises? Oh and pipp probably packed her stuff in her room! And moved to meratimebay that's why her room looks simple and blank! And everypony is still learning to learn there abilities! They just got there majic and it takes time for peguses to learn to fly not odematicly like rainbow Dash! Silly!
9:14 oh, hello, Spike Plushie missing his wings
5:16 Changeling?
"Bitch you are standing in front of a magic rainbow" took me tf OUT
My head canon is there's a BUNCH of dead pegasi they ain't talking about.
Dang, I'm kinda proud of myself, cuz I've noiced almost all of those movie sins while watching
in my opinion, the old mlp is better is just the 3D animation isn't working and some of common sense in mlp is gone tbh I want the old mlp back bc there are some questions that arent answered you guys understand right?
rigth
It seems this special shows that G5 isn't a sequel to G4, it ignores most of the plot from the movie. Also, where are Sprout and his mom? Neither of them are seen or mentioned in Make Your Mark.
The REALLY sad thing is, her design is based off of G1 POSEY! And she's so mean.
and her name. If Minty shows up I wonder how she'll change.
@@beccacroce7380 Yeah.
@moliminous The Melody Scissors is a sign for their barber shop called Mane Melody. The makeover scene happens here too at Mane Melody not in their "mansion" xD ... if you watch the trashly animated youtube series... it shows you backstory to all these things in the later episodes.
I couldn’t finish this movie because Izzy’s new voice bothered me so much. I give the recast 5+ sins.
that dragon is really ugly ngl
Everything wrong with make your mark =Everything.
about the possible villain appearing at the end of the movie its probably a reference to character out of the comics
i dont know her name right now but she was the one who was with sombra and also admired chrysailis since their color palettes do seem very similar
6:00 Pegasi are also out classed by unicorns because Starlight was able to levitate her self with her magic which all unicorns can levitate things.
WE NEED MY LITTLE PONY FRIENDSHIP IS MAGIC BACK
You forgot to sin how… UGLY that dragon is.
4:32 You mean unicorns.?
16:42 because earth ponies only have the advantage of walking on hooves or running.
I actually have noticed the Queen’s phone too Moli and omg why did they do that?
I love zip
1:45- SHE MOVED, HER STUFF IS IN THE BRIGHTHOUSE.
is the music from the very start from dark cloud.... like during the stream announcement
Hey, guys quick question. Whatever happened to moliminous other channels? I remembered there was a "Moliminous2" channel but sadly I could not find it. Were all the videos from Moliminous2 deleted or just transferred elsewhere? Would love to hear your thoughts.
Moliminous 2 was deleted. Moliminous theater is still up. Moliminous2 videos are sadly gone
@@Moliminous That's a shame 😥😭. I'd hope to watch some for the sake of nostalgia. Regardless, thanks for replying.
The sherif gave her the badge because a detective is part of the idk, police crew?
How many more of these Netflix Knock off ponies movies are there
3:15
It's the latter I believe. At least according to the youtube shorts.
After how much fun of a ride the movie was, this short was just soooo many levels of bad. It’s so painfully obvious how little their budget was and how many corners they cut in ALL aspects of this.
This is what Hasbro gets when they bucking fire all of their good artists, modelers, and animators.
17:32 WHY DOES IT HAVE WINGS?? DON’T DRAGONS GET WINGS FROM PUBERTY CRAP. ALSO DIDN’T EARTH PONIES ALREADY HAVE MAGIC ORIGINALLY? THEIR STRENGTH OR SOMETHING?
The whole of MYM was just one big fuckin sin
Not exactly related but at 0:16 if you shake the screen it looks like the unlit words move
