Spoiler Alert: Rainbow Rocks, Part Five · 7:44pm Dec 24th, 2014
: Ugh. Yeah, that. The Sirens were defeated, destroyin' their ruby pendents an' ruinin' their ability ta sing, magically or otherwise. Where'd they go after that, Twi? Without their magic, they couldn't harm anyone, but they also lost their main form 'a sustenance as well.
: I wasn't able to find out before I left; all I know is that they seemed to disappear, at least for a few days. I hope they found a new way to live after that, but at that exact moment, I wasn't too focused on them anymore.
: Ah, I can see why! That was QUITE the tight hug Flash gave you, Twilight.
: I, um, yes. Yes it was. So, all in all, everything turned out alright. The Dazzlings were vanquished, and Sunset Shimmer was on the fast track to being fully accepted by Canterlot High again, as well as being a full member of the Rainbooms. And even though I had to return to my duties in Equestria, we now have an easy way to visit Earth whenever we want! Well, THAT version of Earth, anyway. And....wait, what's this after-credits scene?
: ....what.
: Um, let's worry 'bout that later, sugah cube. First things first, what'd ya think 'a the movie?
: Well, um, I'm not really sure. It's hard to make a cinematic evaluation of something I actually took part in like this. Um........
: Ooh, ooh! Then how about I do the conclusion this time?
: Hmm, sure, why not? Go for it!: Yay!! Okay, so Rainbow Rocks. It still suffers from a lot of the High School cliches from the last movie, and even added in some new cliches to boot. There are also some moments that don't make a lot of sense, but look who's talking. Regardless, I'd still say it's a noticeable improvement from the last movie because, even though some of the characters are making the same mistakes all over again, the character arcs of Twi, Sunset, and RD are interesting enough to keep your attention, and more importantly, the conflict with the villains feels a lot tighter and more engaging. Plus, the song numbers feel a lot more appropriate in this movie. All of this, combined with the trademark animation and voice acting, make this a worthy entry into the current My Little Pony franchise.
: Wait, Pinkie, this is part of an entire FRANCHISE? What the hay...?
: Twilight? Don't. Just....don't. Trust me, it'll make your life a lot easier.: Um....okay? I guess?: Fantastic! Now, who's up for a nice, tasty dinner? Only one more day before Hearth's....er, Christmas!

: Umm, what just happened?
You hear about the Equestria Academy series they're planning?
That was honestly one of your more enjoyable reviews. Nail, meet Hammer.
The post credit scene though....
2676045 I've heard rumors, but I can't find any confirmations or major details. It sounds cool, though, as it'd allow some greater character development for Sunset and the Dazzlings. And maybe some redemption for Flash Sentry.
2676115 Danke! Glad to see I haven't gotten rusty. Or that the massive amounts of exposition didn't clog anything up.
2676216 No kidding. An antagonistic Twilight, which this seems to be, could be intriguing.
2677062 True... As for an antagonistic Twilight.... I DOUBT we'd see that... Honestly? I am predicting that Human Twi doesn't believe in magic, let's be honest if Twilight wasn't born as a magic unicorn in a land where magic outshines science she wouldn't either, and the Human Mane 6 are either trying to STOP her from learning about it or show it to her and she doesn't believe it until something HUGELY magical happens.
2677179 By antagonistic, I mean more like someone you'd have to win over instead of a straight-up villain. Like Jack McGee from the old Hulk TV show. Which would easily fit in with the sort of description you gave for her.

2677233 ....WOW, that was amazingly appropriate.
How did I not think of that?
