I think it would be cool to see how they input technology to the magical world of the new generation of My Little Pony. G4 showed that the technology was on the level of steampunk, and considering how many years must have pass between G4 and G5, it would be weird if technology haven’t evolved to begin with. And you’re right it be cool to see how we have a social media star in the main cast. Pipp sounds like she’ll be a form of role model that mix between a good role model and a media star. I can’t wait to see what kind of pony she is at her full potential in the movie.
I can imagine Doc rolling his eyes every time he sees someone cosplay as Pip and take selfie’s with their phone. Then him saying “this is why i don’t use a cellphone. So I don’t end up like that.”
Also, I like the joke potential in magic being new for this generation of ponies and technology being old hat "Pff, foals nowadays with their magic artifacts. In my day we had tablets and liked 'em!"
I want to see transponyism a fusion of pony biology and technology, with Pony versions of Cyborg from Teen Titans, or Pony versions of Meta Cooler from the Dragon Ball Z movie The Return Of Cooler. Or Pony Battlemechs, like in Mechwarrior 3 and Mechassault. Or a Pony Terminator!
I really like the idea of technology replacing magic after it disappeared, kinda like in Disney's Onward, with the difference that, in that case, magic was simply forgotten because technology was simply easier to use. As for technology after magic gets back, I can see it easily used as "training wheels" for those who are learning how to utilize their new powers, or even as a way to use some kinds of spell more easily, like teleportation without having the skill that are needed. Obviously, there are plenty more examples, but these are the firsts that came to my mind. What do you think?
I think a fusion of magic and tecnology would be interesting and opens the door for alot of possibilities. Plus, magi-tech is a thing, so phones in a fantasy setting can work if the context makes sense

Thank you for sharing your final thoughts on the G5 movie Blissy, i'm looking forward to literally anything and everything G5 will have to throw at the mlp fandom and the Brony Community!!!
Eh, I'm not too bothered by phones and stuff tbh. I am looking forward to seeing how these things affect the pony world! I mean hell, mobile phones and streaming have been a thing in fanfics and fanart for ages now :D
To be honest, the world of Equestria in G5 could be seen as the result of some of the modern elements from Equestria Girls making their way into the pony-verse (possible courtesy of Twilight.) On a side note; even though THIS Equestria is rather modern in terms of its society, tech and lifestyles...I hope the mythical/mystical aspects of MLP will still be present in G5; mythical creatures, magic, epic adventures etc.
I'd hoped that they would use Discord as an icon for the discord app. When I was younger and heard about the discord chat for the first time, I thought it was a Brony forum XD
For magitech, my preference is magic artifacts acting like modern tech, like a pocket watch with enough enchanted gears to act as a smart phone. For MLP tech, I'm okay with this. This was the main reason why i like Tales (more than G1).
Ok, I like to know where this one comes from and it's a good one. 4:11 Also, I'm surprised that modern ponies are using new technologies as the years gone by. Which I'm curious to know what happens, I'm a little worried. If the ponies are using social media, will the connections will be connected to each other by accidents? Also, I'm more surprise that they have apps that we're familiar with.
The most immediate merge of magic and technology I can envision is a smartphone that can be charged by Unicorn magic. Your phone dropping below 10%? Just inject with the appropriate amount of energy from an immediate charge. (Beginners are recommended to undercharge until they get a feel for how much power to put into it) Also available for Pegasai and Earth Ponies if your Unicorn friends don't mind being your charger.

One of the trailers had me giggle at Pipp's phone vibrating under her wing. Applejack: Hey Rarity. Did you know Unicorns can't use magic anymore and live in the woods? ;) Rarity: WELL! I NEVER!
I actually think this might work out in an interesting way. If Friendship is Magic, but magic has been lost in this universe, what if Magic could come back by not only reintroducing friendships, but magic could be improved through having more bonds not just physically and emotionally, but through bonding even with technology. By bonding through a screen but maintaining friendships, magic could improve as well despite a different way of expressing love and friendship. I can see how that could be a way Magic could be reintroduced to Eauestria as well as fighting misinformation - which as a result would make magic vanish due to misunderstandings, misinformation and mistrust through technology with other ponies. Not just through negative word of mouth.
The past few years I've been detoxing myself from using phones and facebook/twitter. As much as I love how they bring people together, I don't always see that as a good thing. Politics always comes up, and it always results in conflict. The constant communication probably feeds that beast... I know the solution is to focus on better topics, but there are always those few people who derail it back into that direction.
I think this will give the writing staff a lot of new material to do storylines that weren't possible in G4 due to the show's renaissance like setting. Heck they could even do a technology-based villain or it could be a great way to explain how the rumors about each of the types of ponies spread so quickly.
In G4 we had techno rave parties with Vinyl Scratch. It's only a few hops from having a world cluttered with cell-phones. I'm more concerned with the absence of non-pony characters. Where did the changelings go, for example?
Maybe they all cleared out after whatever happened that caused the three pony kinds to become segregated. And as the years went by and nobody saw them, they became creatures of myth. Or maybe ponies know other creatures exist, but don't interact with them anymore because of prejudice.
Truth no way the g4 we know and the g4 that's in the movie are the same their clearly was modern technology in g4 but just wasn't as popularised due to magic. But for their to be a 100 year difference between g4 and g5 especially considering twilight's raign and her trip to the human world. I'm sorry but it just doesn't make sense for there to be that little of advancement over the span of a century.
Having WiFi and/or mobile is cool and all, but it's not without its flaws. Electricity has to flow to and from those 5G towers, and blackouts have been known to happen. Still, such forms of communication have become an important part of our daily lives, especially with what happened last year.
So excited that you are excited for this. And to talk about Pipp; will she be your favorite? I know she’s my favorite, fluffy wings and being able to sing. Think you can pull off fluffy wings? Hopefully I will like this modern day in a magical world, I remember seeing later Barbie movies pull it off but some didn’t look natural. So far I am okay with this and we’ll have to see how both magic and technology work (I mean I seen the concept of Legend of Korra and they may of been able to pull it off).
4:12 "Dr. Wolf: You'll never take me alive!" (It's out-of-context-ness is beside the point.) Everyone else (thrusting our smartphones into the air): "One of us! One of us!"
I was immensely flattered by your cantankerous visualized look on your face in the very beginning of the manifested video, it was captivating and downright humorous. I love that you have notions and aspirations of the recent upcoming MLP: A NEW GEN FILM, despite the previous news regarding the movie of course, which is somewhat prevalent all across the demographic, mostly civilized society. Any who, retro phones weren't truly redundant from the commencement, they were merely been that aspectual way because one decisively does it from certain deeds, or something hypothetical in that pertained case. I flippin adore Pipp because she is majestic and describably spontaneous at most certain times, with her derivative motto, "Pipp Pipp, hooray!", which I commonly find to be amusing and cliche both simultaneously. I Flippin Love It LB, BTW (BY THE WAY), I'M THE ONE, THE LOVABLE, THE CHARISMATIC ROWAN KNIGHTHOOD, THE PLEASURE IS ETERNALLY MINE.
Interesting detail is that The different pony societies have different levels of technology. Pegasi heavily relay on cellphones and video screens, Earth ponies have more industrial abilities, but their electrical appliances seem to be on par with late 90's tech, and Unicorns seem stuck in a pre-steam age tech level, even the Just Prance machine had to be manually operated by cute creatures.
I'm all in with the magic and tech hybrid once the whole separation thing blows over, but good lord if this does happen, we're gonna have holocoms from Star Wars and teleport watches from Power Rangers (If would be a new form of transportation to get to point A to point B.).
I want to see transponyism a fusion of pony biology and technology, with Pony versions of Cyborg from Teen Titans, or Pony versions of Meta Cooler from the Dragon Ball Z movie The Return Of Cooler. Or Pony Battlemechs, like in Mechwarrior 3 and Mechassault. Or a Pony Terminator!
While I do not share your enthusiasm for the new technology angle the genre has gone, I do see your point that this is a 'new generation' and promise to be as impartial in my judgement of the show as possible, my only hope is that the byplay between the characters are as great as the 'Mane SIx'
Tbh I’m interested but I really want to know what happened before and how the unicorn earth pony’s and pegasus fear each other and will we see any of the different creatures that we know from G4?
I found some books with an interesting mix of tech and magic called the Heartstriker series that starts with No Good Dragon Goes Unpunished (and yes, all the titles are like that, it's what got my attention in the first place.) It's a world that was like ours till a meteor hits the earth, releasing magic, spirits and the like back into the world. It has some good ideas of how tech would change if magic could be brought into it.
It looks like gen 4 was taken about the era of the 1600s because there was castles, houses with hay roofs and untamed lands such as the everfree forest. In gen 5 its probably taken around the modern age with technology.
I was against getting a cellphone till just last year and finally got one it has been helpful during the pandemic last year and my job letting me not if I have to work extra or not
From a logical point of view the use of technology was inevitable. From what we knew before the movie came out today, we had two facts. 1) G4 was not considered "Ancient Equestria ". 2) Magic was gone. Therefore the ponies would have to take the Onward approach to compensate. If I know my cliches the series will have a old vs new feel with some ponies rediscovering lost Magic techniques, and others fearing the due their preference for long proven reliable technology.
As I've said over on Silver Starling's den video, the only thing I hope for is we get told as to HOW magic disappeared from this once magical land that we've come to know for years. I however will be watching it late at night cause the day it's coming out is actually my birthday.
I mean, even I can admit that when I use the iPad during high school, I use it a lot! 😅And I still use it today. And since I have all the features I need for an iPad, I go for the standard flip phone that you can text and call. And I don’t really use social media platforms either! I am a classic guy, but there’s still many modern era things that I actually enjoy. Sia was one of those examples when I watch the new my little pony the movie. I really enjoy her music, and I really lloovve iit today!😀
i feel like the only person who wasn't shocked Pegasus cant fly- i thought they wouldn't be able to fly from the beginning because of one of the episodes in the past where (guys i cant spell his name) took magic and they couldn't fly- though I am wondering what magic has to do with them flying i think that would be an interesting concept.
One of my biggest gripes about the dependence on technology for access to information is that the spread of such information can thus be controlled via various filters. It happens all the time. It probably won't happen because this is something that unfortunately few seem to be aware of and fewer still seem to wish to acknowledge it, but I wonder how such a problem might be tackled if it came up. Beyond that, could it be tackled well? Should it be addressed in children's media? I personally think so, but honestly I'm not very in touch with societal expectations and whatnot. Autist whose lack of ability to comprehend societal norms was enabled, speaking here.
I definetly think that a lot of people would consider touching that subject not appropiate for kids. In my opinion they should definetly give it a shot since it would be a very important lesson
Have you seen the movie yet because they bring this up how in equestria history books have been altered and pony racism is taught to children in school
@@User-xk3nw Saw it about an hour ago. Honestly, given what we knew of the premise already I should have guessed something like that would come up anyway.
I was just joking about with my previous comment, I know that Dr. Wolf isn't a real therapist, I was just having a bit of fun. I do apologise for my comment. I do love your videos and I totally agree with you about Pipp in this video. Great animation BTW.
Heh... Doc and cells have become a running gag. By which Doc starts running every time someone starts talking about him and cells. Everyone needs a unique quirk and I only realized afterwards that was a My Hero Academia reference.^w^
About the footage. I've watched every excerpt and scene leaked, including what looks like the opening Prelude recapping G4 and now it kinda feels like I've seen the Whole movie. I'll try not to mind it though. Otherwise, Yeah, I hope that, like with Button Mash, Hasbro plays their cards right on using technology in G5.
Wait, maybe it’s only the Pegasi that have advanced that far? The other two classes don’t look to be on the same tech level as them (havent seen any earth/unicorn ponies with phones as of writing) in addition to their territory appearing to be more fancy. If Pegasi are the top ruling class in this Equestria because of these advancements, then that’s actually kind of interesting in terms of world building. Fingers crossed that there’ll be some depth to this if that’s the case and not just something strictly meant to be more “relatable” to the younger demographic!
Heck even the earth ponies look more technological advanced than the unicorns (in my opinion). Maybe the unicorns lost their magic more recently than the pegasi and didn't develop as much?
@@itsme7336 or maybe, assuming this takes place in the same universe/timeline as gen 4; because unicorns had their abilities to basically to everything for them, they had difficulty adjusting to life compared to the earth ponies and pegasi who were accustomed to not having such manipulators to begin with. They were once the nobles of canterlot and look where they are now. There’s a few holes in that idea of you think about it too hard but it’s a possibility….watch it turn out to be that the writing team didn’t even mean for it to be this intricate 😔
Considering magic has been absent in Equestria, it would make sense for the ponies to turn to technology as a substitute. ...that, or Twilight brought back a souvenir from one of her trips to visit Sunset.
I noticed a lot of similarities between the new G5 movie and the G4 episode when Cozy glow attempted to suck magic out of Equestria From what I gathered, the Pegsi and Unicorns along with the Earth Ponies lost their magic ( Although I'm not so sure about the Earth Ponies since their magic abilities are not as visible as the others, however Starswirl noted that magic from every creature on Equestria will fail so that's why I included the Earth Ponies ) From the G5 movie, we can see that the Unicorns lost their magic casting abilities while the Pegasi can't use their wings to fly, just like what happened in the episode School Raze. The similarities are so great one could assume that Cozy glow is still there I also noticed that Sunny has transformed into an Alicorn, in order for one to become an Alicorn, they must be awarded to become one by an another Alicorn princess. Basically, some alicorn must've awarded Sunny for her effort in reuniting Equestria. I also think that Sunny's glowing Alicorn appearance is just temporarily since glowing stuff don't glow forever.
2:25 They also barely if at all took advantage of their equine nature which is one of the most fun and interesting aspects of MLP. There you could swap them out with regular school girls and nothing would change. Even most of the animations look entirely human.
@@connorschultz380 I said their equine nature, not their magical nature. I always loved how the characters were not human and all the ways they got around that.
@@MrMarinus18 I Honestly don't know what your talking about, they pick stuff up with there hooves in the old show like they hand thumbs, do you mean when pinky grabbed stuff with her hair?
@@connorschultz380 G4 didn't do it perfectly but they did still keep in mind that they are equines. Eating hay, having a equine walk cycle, not eating meat, horse like sounds and movements from time to time.
I feel personally attacked :) Still, lovely to hear your thoughts before the movie releases Blissy.

It’s hard to complain about having modern tech in the show when we technically crossed that bridge with Equestria Girls. So I’m ok with it.

As I've said over on Silver Starling's den video, the only thing I hope for is we get told as to HOW magic disappeared from this once magical land that we've come to know for years. I however will be watching it late at night cause the day it's coming out is actually my birthday.
How do you do fellow kids
My question is this, How are the ponies even holding these phones?
I mean, even I can admit that when I use the iPad during high school, I use it a lot! 😅And I still use it today. And since I have all the features I need for an iPad, I go for the standard flip phone that you can text and call. And I don’t really use social media platforms either! I am a classic guy, but there’s still many modern era things that I actually enjoy. Sia was one of those examples when I watch the new my little pony the movie. I really enjoy her music, and I really lloovve iit today!😀
Fun video
I'm excited for it
i feel like the only person who wasn't shocked Pegasus cant fly- i thought they wouldn't be able to fly from the beginning because of one of the episodes in the past where (guys i cant spell his name) took magic and they couldn't fly- though I am wondering what magic has to do with them flying i think that would be an interesting concept.
Wait that wasn't a joke? Doc literally doesn't have his own cell phone?!
He’s a 35-year old boomer
@@tudoraragornofgreyscot8482 I think Doc is over 40 by now

I'm still wondering why pipes wings look so different, like Dr wolf said, it's very possible it's fake or an improvised wing set, but why?
why don't we do both tech and magic
2 years later with tell your tale seems like that's what they planning.
I just saw my oc near that massive rainbow thing
One of my biggest gripes about the dependence on technology for access to information is that the spread of such information can thus be controlled via various filters. It happens all the time. It probably won't happen because this is something that unfortunately few seem to be aware of and fewer still seem to wish to acknowledge it, but I wonder how such a problem might be tackled if it came up. Beyond that, could it be tackled well? Should it be addressed in children's media? I personally think so, but honestly I'm not very in touch with societal expectations and whatnot. Autist whose lack of ability to comprehend societal norms was enabled, speaking here.
I definetly think that a lot of people would consider touching that subject not appropiate for kids. In my opinion they should definetly give it a shot since it would be a very important lesson
Have you seen the movie yet because they bring this up how in equestria history books have been altered and pony racism is taught to children in school
@@User-xk3nw Saw it about an hour ago. Honestly, given what we knew of the premise already I should have guessed something like that would come up anyway.
0:13 made me laugh :3
Zipp storm is the best g5 pony
2:43 Clever flashback. I like it ;)
I feel like it's gonna be similar to the movie Onward
I’m still curious about why Pipp’s wings are different to everyone else’s :/
I'm guessing it's because the heroes get to look different.
Still wish they could still make/ continue g4 mlp
It dead
The Ponies may iPhones, but I don’t think they have spaceships yet!
It's good to be openminded :3
I was just joking about with my previous comment, I know that Dr. Wolf isn't a real therapist, I was just having a bit of fun. I do apologise for my comment. I do love your videos and I totally agree with you about Pipp in this video. Great animation BTW.
Glad to see the game Pilotwings being played
Heh... Doc and cells have become a running gag. By which Doc starts running every time someone starts talking about him and cells.
Everyone needs a unique quirk and I only realized afterwards that was a My Hero Academia reference.^w^
0:24 me alone with everyone: uuuummm wat? 0_0
I don't think it will change with magic coming back sense we only see pegasy having phone
I had a feeling that you were going to get mad but it's only be happy I had a feeling
saw the movie, liked it, still have questions. I'll probably often compare this to Korra.
Having left most of the mlp stuff behind, I'm curious to see how g5 will kick off honestly. Like how I started g4, I'm a blank slate.
At least theres some looking up.
Oh I love Pop music too...from the 80´s to the 90´s. XD
You are a great youtuber ligtnings bliss and i am huge fan off you youtube channel
If magic is released back into equestria, then I imagine ponies will attempt to fuse the two, with varying degrees of success
About the footage. I've watched every excerpt and scene leaked, including what looks like the opening Prelude recapping G4 and now it kinda feels like I've seen the Whole movie. I'll try not to mind it though. Otherwise, Yeah, I hope that, like with Button Mash, Hasbro plays their cards right on using technology in G5.
Cool video lightning Bliss awesome and G5 is awesome
"I look forward to the fusion of magic and technology...!" -Blissy
Enter: Cyber-M.U.L.E. ;)
Wait, maybe it’s only the Pegasi that have advanced that far? The other two classes don’t look to be on the same tech level as them (havent seen any earth/unicorn ponies with phones as of writing) in addition to their territory appearing to be more fancy.
If Pegasi are the top ruling class in this Equestria because of these advancements, then that’s actually kind of interesting in terms of world building.
Fingers crossed that there’ll be some depth to this if that’s the case and not just something strictly meant to be more “relatable” to the younger demographic!
Heck even the earth ponies look more technological advanced than the unicorns (in my opinion). Maybe the unicorns lost their magic more recently than the pegasi and didn't develop as much?
@@itsme7336 or maybe, assuming this takes place in the same universe/timeline as gen 4; because unicorns had their abilities to basically to everything for them, they had difficulty adjusting to life compared to the earth ponies and pegasi who were accustomed to not having such manipulators to begin with. They were once the nobles of canterlot and look where they are now.
There’s a few holes in that idea of you think about it too hard but it’s a possibility….watch it turn out to be that the writing team didn’t even mean for it to be this intricate 😔
Considering magic has been absent in Equestria, it would make sense for the ponies to turn to technology as a substitute.
...that, or Twilight brought back a souvenir from one of her trips to visit Sunset.
I noticed a lot of similarities between the new G5 movie and the G4 episode when Cozy glow attempted to suck magic out of Equestria
From what I gathered, the Pegsi and Unicorns along with the Earth Ponies lost their magic
( Although I'm not so sure about the Earth Ponies since their magic abilities are not as visible as the others, however Starswirl noted that magic from every creature on Equestria will fail so that's why I included the Earth Ponies )
From the G5 movie, we can see that the Unicorns lost their magic casting abilities while the Pegasi can't use their wings to fly, just like what happened in the episode School Raze.
The similarities are so great one could assume that Cozy glow is still there
I also noticed that Sunny has transformed into an Alicorn, in order for one to become an Alicorn, they must be awarded to become one by an another Alicorn princess. Basically, some alicorn must've awarded Sunny for her effort in reuniting Equestria.
I also think that Sunny's glowing Alicorn appearance is just temporarily since glowing stuff don't glow forever.
Love the video bliss!
i'm so excited for the movie
Wait, is this CellSpex????
The fac thtat they have the Discord App not look like DIscord's face is somewhat a dissapointment
Hope u do a review of this
glad to see here from everybody by the backstreet boys

They also barely if at all took advantage of their equine nature which is one of the most fun and interesting aspects of MLP. There you could swap them out with regular school girls and nothing would change. Even most of the animations look entirely human.
Um, if one branch of humans had wings and the other should have magic
@@connorschultz380 I said their equine nature, not their magical nature. I always loved how the characters were not human and all the ways they got around that.
@@MrMarinus18 I Honestly don't know what your talking about, they pick stuff up with there hooves in the old show like they hand thumbs, do you mean when pinky grabbed stuff with her hair?
@@connorschultz380 G4 didn't do it perfectly but they did still keep in mind that they are equines. Eating hay, having a equine walk cycle, not eating meat, horse like sounds and movements from time to time.
