Seriously, I just took a look and this was pretty bad. The animation wasn't improved, the new character designs look like Bratz or some such shit, and the magic/pony/dimension elements of the story stayed mostly segregated from the school/dance/friends stuff. That made the climax seem incredibly dissonant--Sunset Whatever had spent most of the movie as a generic stereotypical mean girl, only to transform into some weird monster thing and try to take over the world. Also, the movie never explains how Sunset could have gotten popular. She may be good at tearing others down, but she doesn't really even have any onscreen friends besides Snips and Snails, who were put into the show to be two male retards, and never seem to have any motivation whatsoever. Although it's not taken to the extreme, the movie frequently attempts cringe comedy, despite the fact that pretty much everybody hates it, as far as I can tell. Seriously, is there any high school or college movie that *doesn't* have a scene where the main characters are intensely embarrassed in some spectacular fashion? Characters' actions have little continuity between scenes, so Twilight's embarrassment doesn't even affect the story after it's already happened.

All I know is that there's something about humans with chalk-white skin that terrifies me. The other bizarre colors I can just sort of go "eh, whatever, artistic license/supernatural shit or something," but then when I see that Rarity I just feel profoundly uncomfortable.

Is she a walking corpse?

That would explain the lanky designs.

But yeah, this movie sucks. But then again, I never did like this franchise.

I am not of the opinion that this movie is worse than CAD.

I am of the opinion that this movie is uninspired crap made just to sell a hideous new line of Hasbro pony-barbies. Basically everything Fireshark said is pretty spot on.

And I also believe it would make for good annotating material, presuming we dont have to worry about the copyright strikes. Hasbro has been a little bit more anal lately. Other than that, the movie has a lot of scenes that are just asking to be riffed, lots of other shit to play on as well for fans and non-fans alike.

I know that even the bronies are on a (mostly) dislike streak with the movie, so it shouldn't exactly be too much of a shit-stirrer either.

So uh.. why didn't Trixie have this part?

No really, they could've placed her in Sunset's place and I still wouldn't give a fuck.

This is perfect.

Not the movie, but the disguise.
