Anymore, the mere existence of a traditional plot format puts you miles ahead of the competition.

My wife teaches English to a little Spanish girl. Sometimes she comes to our house and my wife uses cartoons to help her learn. One of those is ' My Little Pony ' - little girls - ponies, it's a fact of life...

If though, as a male adult, you find that cartoon anything other than extremely annoying ( at best ) or at worst a good reason to take a scoped rifle up a tall building then I cannot comprehend your thought processes.

Are you gay ?

I'm quite secure in my masculinity, thanks for asking. My ten-year-old daughter seems to like MLP:FiM and we watch it together.

Unlike the earlier iterations this one is not 100% retail toy sale disguised as entertainment.

To me it seems better than sticking a Sonicare vibrating toothbrush up my ass...

Aesop's right.

Personally, I think rebooting was a terrible idea. There are some things that cannot be done twice. Now, you could do prequels - that explain where the characters came from. The problem being that this rather changes between the original series and the movies.

The other two options would be a post-quel (Keptin Pavel Chekov, anyone? :D ), or real prequels. The heroic Captain Pike, with Ensigns Kirk and Spock suitably clad in red shirts.

Not sure that its quite an "I love this bar" moment, but the last few posts on this thread, wouldn't happen anywhere else... :?
