Why is almost everybody here talking about “Pipp hate”?
She is just the least popular out of a great cast. Although I also like her the least, I would still give her 4 out of 5 stars. This means I still like her a lot (far from hate), just I like the other characters a little bit more.

The thing is, fans are usually busy looking into the foreground characteristics and ignoring anything that doesn’t have much focus. Much like how some people usually look at media in general nowadays.

One of the biggest draws for new bronies in g4 was that all of the main characters represented annoying girly stereotypes (maybe save Applejack) that appear in tons of other mindless girls shows, but even by the second episode they already proved themselves to go above and beyond those traits alone, like how Rarity kicked the manticore to defend her friends, but still cared about her mane. Pipp got the same treatment, and even though we didn’t get to see much of her, you can tell the celebrity thing wasn’t her entire personality.

If someone states they’re personal opinions they should expect an argument from someone with a different opinion. Especially when it’s to do with one of my favorite G5 poners.

Sorry for being rude, it was to add flair and drama to my comment.
You need to know that this is probably at-least a 100 years after G4, so you have to except that there will be technological advances and that a pony who has an ego similar to Trixie’s would use a mobile phone for validation. Lots of people like phones and have an addiction to them. To say Pipp is a stereotype because she likes her phone & livestreaming is like saying Twilight Sparkle is a stereotype because she likes books. Your logic is flawed.
@Grapefruit Face
You catch my drift. No need to be rude about it.
I’m talking about her addiction to phones and, in particular, livestreaming. That’s not very appealing to a lot of bronies, including myself, especially when G4 was mostly free of modern technology.

Oh shut up. She’s a flipping pony princess. She’s not a ‘stereotypical influencer’. Do you see her promoting sketchy cryptocurrency bullshit? Do you see her promoting sketchy make-up? Do you see her bragging about her Lamborghini and Ferrari? Do you see her charging thousands of dollars for pictures of her hind hooves? NO! She provided funny lines and a cool song. So shut your face, Bro.
It doesn’t help that not only did she contribute very little to the plot of the movie compared to all the other main characters, but also that the movie frames her to be a stereotype.
“She didn’t have enough screen time” is an excuse to me. IMO, what we did see of her was a lot worse than what we saw of any of the others (read: influencers are disliked), and making her appear more wouldn’t change that whole influencer thing.
