Thoughts on the NEW MLP movie!
4 years ago
Here's some of mine:
Izzy was my absolute favorite in the whole movie! I enjoyed every scene she was in X3
Was kinda hoping for another male character in the main group of friends though. Preferably a unicorn that way it's 2 of each race. I like the balance.
I really felt like the earth ponies got left out of the ending. At the beginning of the movie it was kinda hinting towards earth pony's strength in innovation since they never had magic or flying abilities, but then you see the Pegasus city and they look like they are LEAGUES ahead of the earth ponies as far as tech goes. I was kinda hoping the lack of magic would result in earth ponies having some sort of famine due to them losing their connection with the earth or maybe they start lacking in the near super strength a lot of earth ponies possessed.
I was honestly hoping that Sunny's dad wasn't dead (even though we all knew he was gonna be dead) and was just messing. With him being a researcher and there being a LITERAL MAP OF G4 EQUESTRIA in the childhood scenes, I was thinking he would have just gone missing searching out the abandoned city of canterlot or something. Then Sunny has to go searching for him, making friends along the way. Even better would have been had they FOUND SPIKE! Funny enough EVERY generation of MLP (except G2) has a purple dragon character named Spike. It would have been so cool had they found a massive adult Spike sleeping under the ruins of canterlot. Spike then could have explained the stories of the mane 6. I was also kinda hoping the "spirit" of Twilight Sparkle would make an appearance and it turns out she made the 3 crystals as a fail safe if the three races ever became divided again. A symbol of friendship and a catalyst for the friendship magic that could be used to save all of equestria.
Also, I think having active political tension over resources or something among the three races would have been more interesting to watch too. With pegasus hiding the fact they can't control the weather, unicorns hiding the fact they don't have magic, and earth ponies hiding the fact they are losing connection with the earth, each tribe grows more and more hostile with each other. WHY aren't the pegasus giving us the rains we need?! Why are the earth ponies holding out on food?! Why won't the unicorns help by supply with magical remedies?! Would have helped drive the tension.
Also did anyone think it was interesting that the names of two of the main characters are SUNNY starscout and Izzy MOONbow?! Even more with Sunny becoming an alicorn?! I can't help but enjoy the parallels of our two favorite 1000 yo princesses! But rather than a sister relationship, I'd rather ship Sunny and Izzy. They're interactions throughout the movie were too cute!
Someone throw Sprout in jail please. Dude committed war crimes, or at least was very close to.
Over all I thought the movie was cute and fun, and I'm excited to see what they do in the new generation! What are your thoughts?
(How are these ponies gonna handle dragons, griffons, zebras, etc., if they barely handle each other?)
(Hey wait a second! How come zebras were never at Twilight's school of friendship?!)
