Laser-targeted news, clearly designed specifically for our core audience here at Last Movie Outpost… or not. My Little Pony is getting a live-action adaptation. Amazon MGM Studios is following up on Masters Of The Universe with this, which means it is only a matter of time before we get a Care Bears reboot.

Seriously guys, no love for M.A.S.K. ?

Hasbro Entertainment is working with Amazon on this. It was your sister’s unavoidable answer to He-Man and G.I.: Joe back in the 1980s. Young horses with brightly coloured manes and… actually, that is about all I can remember. Shit, I had better do some research…

…I am back, and it is my unfortunate duty to inform you of the existence of “Bronies”. Now I need to go and have a very hot shower and scrub. Scrub this evil away.

It appears that this started around 2010, and due to something called My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, suddenly a certain kind of man got obsessed with My Little Pony and ruined that in the same way they ruined women’s sports. What the actual fuck is wrong with people?

Apparently the “Brony” trend started among certain 4Chan posters and grew from there. It was the subject of a 2012 documentary Bronies: The Extremely Unexpected Adult Fans of My Little Pony (formerly titled BronyCon: The Documentary).

I have to stop now, before this article becomes some kind of cry for help, or gets used as evidence in a murder suicide.

Thousands of disappointed dads cried out in anguish…

 

Hasbro is also working on a reimagining of Clue, another live-action Dungeons & Dragons via a series at Netflix, and something based on Magic: The Gathering.
