EQ: Friendship Games first trailer (my thoughts) · 7:41pm Jul 2nd, 2015
-It's actually kinda cool to see Sunset Shimmer take over pony Twilight's place in the group. The music's also interesting. Similar to the first tracks we heard from RR.
I do like these twists here. The Crystal Empire equivalent being a different school and EqG-Twilight attending that one and playing against the "humane 6" - sure didn't expect that, but I like it already. That's even before we get to the impressively epic competition disciplines.
I say they picked just the right time to play the EqG-Twilight card. EqG1 was about introducing the setting, RR was about developing Sunset and integrating her into the "humane" cast, and now 3 can be very interesting indeed. EqG-Twilight set against Sunset there - it will indeed be interesting how they end up interacting, given that Sunset's taken pony-Twilight's role for the "humane 6" group.
Also, EqG-Twilight seems to follow pony-Twilight's repertoire in coming in contact with powerful magic and artifacts and stuff. I actually like it too.
All in all, promising stuff. I was looking forward to the movie as it is, now I'm even more intrigued, all in a good way. No overblown expectations, though - I just want to see what they'll give us, not construct some pretty headcanon that will go the way of the Hindenburg come release day.
Why would there be costume changes at a sports contest?
