I used to be a devout Brony/Pegasister, but now I’m just kind of casual, though I have watched everything that’s currently available. My opinions are rather unpopular among the fandom, though.
Fandom: Season 2 and 4 were great!
Me: Season 1 was the best, even if Season 2 had a lot of my favorite episodes.
Fandom: The Season 4 finale was amazing and epic!
Me: The Season 4 finale was complete and utter garbage that nearly killed all interest I had in the show and even still has greatly diminished it, as it sacrificed continuity and character competency for the sake of a contrived series of events leading up to a pointless and underwhelming 0MG 3PIC ACT10N S3QU3NC3.

Fandom: The EQG spin-off movies were terrible!
Me: The first EQG movie is like Hero Factory: Lots of potential gone wasted. The second EQG movie was actually pretty good, and infinitely better than the Season 4 finale.
Fandom: G1 and G3 sucked!
Me: G3 sucked; G1 was actually really good in a cheesy, 80’s show sort of way.
