As someone else already explained to you, judging the success of a movie solely by the opinions of those handful of individuals is hardly fair to either of those films. Intentionally or not, some of those individuals and institutions have a bias against MLP and towards Blade Runner born purely out of their pre-established perceptions of those two franchises. Don’t tell me you honestly believe Cracked and the Academy Awards are totally fair and unbiased. Even if Blade Runner did technically do better than MLP, it wasn’t by as large a margin as your suggestion. Nor is the MLP movie a failure because it did not outperform Blade Runner in certain regards.

There’s no denying the MLP movie was better received by bronies than by those unfamiliar with the franchise, but that doesn’t mean the unfamiliar crowd automatically accepted Blade Runner 2049 as perfection either. There’s a reason the box office take of the latter film was considered disappointing, after all.

There’s only been one or two instances in the series were RD has actively sought attention for herself, and she’s never shown any desire for attention from her parents in particular. Bow and Windy’s enthusiasm for Dash is perpetuated by their love for their daughter; it’s not the result or consequence of any specific actions on RD’s part (they cheer her on for literally anything and everything). Moreover, as darknessRising24 pointed out, the attention wasn’t even the main beef RD had with her folks in “Parental Glideance”: it was how disruptive they were being in celebrating her. Mind you, they literally shot fireworks at her at one point.
