My thoughts on Rainbow Rocks (Minor Spoilers) · 6:42am Oct 10th, 2014
Even thought it almost 2 3 in the morning, I can't sleep and so what not make a Rainbow Rocks (non-spoiler)review.
First off, I just want to point out how incredible the soundtrack was. There wasn't a song in the movie I didn't enjoy, I already have the full album downloaded. Also, the fact that Lyra has hands in this movie only makes it 20% cooler.
I loved Maud's appearance and her interesting behavior. Maud is awesome :D
I also thought that Derpy's group sounded cool. I would have enjoyed hearing more from them, but that wasn't the focus of the movie.
The thing I liked most was how the movie set the stage for more adventures in EQGland, showing that the Mane Six definitely haven't gone through the development that their pony selves have gone through.
Good call of Trixie actually pointing out the Mane group using magic for the contest as an unfair advantage. xD
Sunset Shimmer is much better as a good guy than as a satanic demon from hell-type thing. I know most people didn't like The Dazzlings. But the new villains were decent (t me that is), I mean hey this movie is base off of a kid's TV show.The Dazzlings remind of The Dazzlers, a pony band that was actually in one of the previous gens (can't remember).
An now we get to Flash Sentry, (this go for both movies), to tell you the truth I have no negative (or positive) to say about Flash (as a character.) (Human) Flash i can care less about, I hope they add more with Flash (pony version). Poor pony Flash Sentry. He gets a lot of flak due to his human self. As long as he is not a Plot Device.
I am not going to say more about Flash (at least in this blog but i might do other different blog when I feel up to it) (And go over to see Silver Quill's After the Fact: Flash Sentry
The message of this movie was well delivered. Friendship requires maintenance. A person can't keep friends if they do not listen to them and care about them. Once again the spot on message that friendships are not always easy but are worth fighting for.
Overall, nice movie, can't believe i'm saying this, but can't wait for the next one! I think i'd be ok with third movie but i still having mix feeling about EqG to be a series, but at first i was not sure if a second movie was a good idea so well played McCarthy, you (almost) never disappoint me... :)
