Finally watched My Little Pony: The Movie. Also yay for new series! · 11:13pm Oct 19th, 2017
What I liked:
Top notch music, songs, and animation.
Excellent fight scenes.
Even though Sia's character Songbird Serenade only appears and speaks briefly, she was worth every penny.
Very cool and interesting new characters.
What I didn't like:
Twilight Sparkle again failing to remember not to be a perfectionist, that it is okay to make small mistakes, and to trust her friends. And the part where she tried to steal the pearl, all I could think when watching that was, "What an idiot!"
Princess Celestia seemed to give up too easily, and didn't even try to fight back.
The Storm King's voice was so goofy. I mean, Lieb Schrieber of all people was voicing him, so he could have sounded just a little badass. I'm okay with him acting goofy. Dark Laser from The Fairly OddParents is a perfect example of a goofy villain with a badass voice.
Trixie was in the crowd and she didn't even contribute anything? What the hell?
Where the hell was Starlight Glimmer? In the end, she only cameos during the end credits, playing with Trixie. Was it a budget thing, or did the studio once again give in to the hate from the fans?
Just like with the Equestria Girls movies, these new characters likely won't appear or even be mentioned in the show.
I just found out they are releasing a My Little Pony: Equestria Girls animated series on YouTube, starting November 17, 2017!
