The end is possibly neigh, fellow Bronies. Behold:

So Friendship is Magic finally gets a movie and it's what some descriptions on the internet say is about Twilight Sparkle going through a magic mirror to follow a thief who stole a crown from the Crystal Empire and the place the mirror transports people to is the humanized version of Equestria and Twilight must overcome the greatest challenge ever and find the crown while attending high school.

Seriously? High school? Proms? Stick versions of humanized ponies? Potential nauseating romance with the school's popular pretty boy?

As a Brony, I feel Equestria Girls is going to really bother me but I hope judging it so soon proves me wrong and I'm just jumping to conclusions. If I'm right though, then there's always pretending it was never canon and pray it'll never be brought up in Season 4 no expression

Were you excited about the pony show in 2009? These people turned one of thelamest concepts into a really good show, I just hope they can do it again.

I'm hoping for that too but I just can't help but cringe at what I'm looking at in the trailer. I mean the whole magical non-human girl attending high school, being a klutz and falling in love and making friends with the locals while being picked on by snobby teens that want to be prom queen is so Disney Channel. I want to believe the movie will be good. I do! But I've been seeing that concept on TV so many damn times, I just don't know what to think now.

Well obviously the mean girl is the thief that stole the crown and it somehow got mistaken for the prom crown. Twilight being such a goody goody wouldn't dream of stealing it vack. It isn't as shallow as you make it out. Plus the joke about her having thumbs now should be entertaining.

Yeah the thief's supposed to be Celestia's former student called Sunset Shimmer who is basically Twilight's Lightning Dust. So that should be interesting. Personally, I'm more excited to see if there will be any Lyra Heartstring jokes more than ponies struggling coping with the fact they have fingers now. That's actually adorable.

NotAllThatEvil
Lyra jokes seem almost to inside the brony community to be in a theatrical release, but thst would be hilarious. I thought only twilight goes through the mirror and the other ponies are just parallel dubbles or something.

Nemesis X
Twilight and the thief are the only ponies we know so far that went into the mirror but it would be nice if Lyra followed.

NotAllThatEvil
Little after the credits shot of her walking through the mirror abd cheering would be perfect.

I know the video is making fun of me for my negativity but I gotta give Saberspark props and he has a point. Before, we were disgusted with ponies until FiM came along and we're treating the upcoming movie no different. Maybe a lot of good will come out of it. Maybe!

NemeBro
I was never "disgusted" with ponies.

Nemesis X
Perhaps 'we' was wrong to use. I just meant that plenty didn't like cartoon ponies before. Some of us weren't exactly fans of the older generations. It's just a poor choice of words was all.

ScreamPaste
Still gonna see it. I refuse to be that ****ing guy who watches MLP and is too up his own ass to try out EQG. mmm

I've technically never even watched the show (most of my friends do) and I feel like this right now:

Seriously, if Turtles Forever wasn't in theaters, I have no damn clue how something like this could be.

New trailer's out:

No, Human Twilight, stop! I'm allergic to cute! D:

Anyway, so the crown is Twilight's Element of Harmony and she's seriously going to get it back by becoming prom queen. If you ask me, she should just channel her inner Solid Snake again and go into the school at night and get back what's already hers.

So it's not coming out anywhere near me. Is it worth buying on DVD?

ScreamPaste
Actually yes. It wasn't bad, I had only one major gripe with it, if you can get it for 20$ or so, pick it up, imho. Or see it on Netflic.

The thing that makes the show good was still there, the characters. (And their antics.) There's a little bit of shouting out to the fans, and they're surprisingly self aware about how goofy the concept is. They even make fun of Twilicorn.

NotAllThatEvil
Do you know what date they'll show it on the hub? I know it's fall but the rest eludes my Google searches.

Nemesis X
The fact Equestria Girls is not in mostly every theatre in the US (much to my incredible disappointment), I'm guessing it won't be long 'til we see a DVD release.

Nemesis X
Okay the trip was definitely worth it. Equestria Girls is awesome! Holy crap. There wasn't as much highschool drama as I feared there would be, Flash Sentry is surprisingly kinda okay now in my book, the musicals are kick ass, the comedy is great, and the principals of the school are hot!

As much as I liked it, the movie had a problem and it's name is Sunset Shimmer. For one thing, her transformation left me speechless. Who would've thought if you're not Twilight and wore her Element of Harmony outside the Ponyverse, you'd be turned into a Digimon. Also, she's a lackluster villain. There was hardly any explanation to why she's such a *****. The movie implies she just is and that's lazy. Now I'm wishing Trixie didn't reappear in Season 3 and was saved as the film's antagonist. That would've been a lot better.

Overall though, the movie is great. Any Bronies still worried it's bad, it's not. Clear the doubts away. Watch it!

ScreamPaste
My largest problem with the movie was Flash Sentry. I hate him, he should not have been in the movie, he played no role except to troll people. shrug

Other than him the movie was good.

Nephthys
I'm just rendering him non-canon in my head, forever. Twilight and Celestia are lovers and there's nothing that can change that.

Flash Sentry??? I know of no-one by that name hahahah!

Now that I'm done hyping, I'm gonna say I didn't have a problem with Flash because I guess I didn't find much to hate him and yet I have little reason to like him also. I like to redact what I said about him being okay. He actually has the same problem as Sunset: both don't have a lot of background to help us better learn about the characters.

Twilestia? I'm pretty sure you were all for the TwiPie awhile back.

It really is for the best what happens in the movie, stays in the movie.

TwiPie would be cute, but Twilestia is just so...... wrong.
