Lionsgate the people who brought you such classics as food fight and Fred 2

Allspark the people who brought you wait a minute,

They're just hasbro in disguise you know what they say about glitter. You'll continue to find this stuff lingering many years later

This is technically a reboot from the 80s, right

It's funny because she didn't say hotel, she said stable because they are horses

Random background pony knows about as much about Twilight Sparkle as the executives who wrote this movie these theatrical wings

The awkward pause after every funny line in this movie is almost as deafening as a laugh track

Canterlot is completely different than it is in the show because we don't have time to establish the socio

Economics present in the show here all of Canterlot is an accessible generic Pony paradise

the show's

Faces both know their limits and know what limits to push this movie is not so subtle attempt at a meme face falls into

Uncanny valley territory Discords not even in this movie, but he would be the one to include a fart joke

Holy horse apples this mug is in another dimension

Except for when Fabulous has a musical number to speed up the process of course

That line is only 40% brony reference this awkward pause is the most we'll see of the ongoing crush

Before photo shop, after photo shop Twilight micromanages approval of every single pie

Meanwhile everypony in Canterlot silently waits for the princess to fly back and continue the song with them

How can we expect try to survive attacks from evil villains if she's easily defeated by a cake

Easy Bake Oven reference because Hasbro movie

SIA was a major factor in the marketing for this movie although she does sing at the end

This is probably her most narratively

significant scene and is overshadowed by this pulp fiction reference

Also we already have a famous pop singer or two that could have filled this role fun fact

This airship was rendered on an original PlayStation movie draws inspiration from another cinematic masterpiece Angry Birds

This is an anthropomorphic Hedgehog in a My Little Pony movie

And you thought ponies invaded the world true world domination belongs to the Sonic fandom

Transformers sound effect because Hasbro movie if the ponies don't know who this is

Then they haven't been paying attention to the rest of the world which is under Storm King control if they do know who that is

They should already know. This is a hostile invasion and stop acting so naive fun fact commander Tempest is literally both edgy and blunt

So Celestia does know tempest already right? There's no way she learned the name from Grubber

Commander tempa?

Commander tembed?

Commander tempurpedic?

Tempest scar floats above her head props to Cadence fro being the only princess to actually do something

But here's the sin for their combined utter failure

Neither the Canterlot Guard nor the Wonderbolts think this is a big enough threat to make an appearance

Super-important crown breaks almost as easily as the toy

Hungry Hungry Hippos because Hasbro movie

Spike, that's East since Canterlot to the North Pinkie was actually going the right direction

That's racist

All of this time spent with the drawn-out we're tired and near death gag should have been spent showing how they got here and how many days have passed

Take a look at this scene of a time a character traveled to even a fraction of the distance

They're traveling now. Suddenly the introduction of an anthropomorphic hedgehog in the Pony universe doesn't seem so bad

We've got pigs a tortoise shark this axolotl looking thing. There's too many creatures that look like they're in the wrong movie to name

Fun fact Twilight is contractually obligated to apologize for something she didn't do in order to qualify for the Canadian tax credit

Male anatomy jokes in My Little Pony now. We're going to be flagged by YouTube's for being advertiser unfriendly

Explaining the fact Rarity owns a smaller version of Capper would be incredibly awkward

Roll credits

Good to know the anthropomorphic cat still uses a litter box

Crotch jokes, and litter box jokes, and overused jokes oh my!

Fish man as in hybrid of fish and man

We're going to run out of credits to roll at this point

Twilight you're the only one who didn't go yet? This would be a cool shot if everypony wasn't running in place

Looks like everypony, but this one bird was already thrown overboard

Captain Celaeno's earring isn't on the correct ear in the portrait. Murdock's eyes are highly offensive

and should be censored immediately our main characters everyone cowering below deck while others prepare for battle

Contrast this with the show and you'll see a massive change also while we're using footage of the Tirek battles

This is as good a time as any to talk about how the movie shamelessly reuses elements from this episode

Tirek invades from outside of Equestria to steal Pony magic and he achieves his final form after robbing the magic of the princess's

Tirek even looks like a better version of the Storm King.

Buy our toys.

Yes this rescue mission is for Celestia's sake

Yeah letting everypony

Freefall for half a minute while they perform visual gags before you took action to save their lives was lightning quick thinking on your part

How do you do fellow kids I like internet memes do you like internet memes

Editor accidentally flips the movie upside down see doesn't look better this way

Legends tell of a muffin loving derped one movie actually tries to hide sea ponies into the reveal even though

It was impossible not to see them in marketing

Rarity quick say something which is totally inappropriate for the matter at hand but great trailer fodder

No Pony makes any effort to swim to the surface not only do they begin drowning within seconds

But apparently it's a very peaceful way to die

Applejack's hat remaining on the top of her bubble

Is just the sort of silly cartoon logic one should expect from my little pony and the movie is to be applauded for not obnoxiously

Drawing attention to it But it's still going to be counted as a sin because Cinemare Sins hates all that is good

Seaquestria

Consists of this wide shot this throne room and these colored backgrounds

Were you hoping to see a whole new civilization and all the interesting logistics involved with an underwater city

Too bad the budget is just about ironically dry at this point so a couple flat backgrounds is all you get Oh see this

Civilization actually has guards whats Canterlots excuse?

I think she wants us to know she's the queen fun fact

This was the original pitch for the sea pony toy line

Applejack practically phrases that as an accusation yet

That's precisely what the ponies did back in Canterlot. You already know what's about to be said this transformation doesn't serve this story

It doesn't support their cause it's only for one thing

BUY OUR TOYS

Or you could just use that spell you've known for a while now and accomplish the same thing plot debunked mic drop

Let's wrap this thing up

Vapid imagery solely to distract kids and sell a new toy line the fact that the rest of the movie isn't this bad makes

It all the worse you guys know Equestria still under attack right?

All of your friends locked up as slaves

Ah who needs them we have a toy commercial to shoot

It's okay when it's obviously not okay cliche

Giant claw cage floor appears beneath Twilight without disturbing the ground

Twilight chooses not to slip through the massive spaces between these bars

Tempest's shadows have a horn. This is obviously an animation error and not a geniusly clever addition

What is this is Tempest explaining her backstory or merely thinking about it?

How is Twilight understanding the backstory if Tempest is explaining all this in a non-diegetic manner?

Why would she be sharing her feelings at time like this at all this?

Three-second shot is the most we see of Ponyville you see that blurry smoldering ruin

That's where the heart of the show you know and love is

This is not how shadows work unless the light source is a few inches behind Capper

Speaking of which where did Capper come from when we last saw him the Pirates

And he had their ship destroyed miles away. Did they just happen to decide on a vacation to the southern seaside?

Trifecta of incredibly convenient timing allows Skystar to join the forming ragtag team of heroes sequence of the movie

Even spike is aware of how contrived this scene is

Storm King confirmed literally Hasbro also trademark law confirmed most powerful entity

The Storm King may be an idiot

But he also just freed princess Twilight because it's convenient for the plot

This simulated passage of time is a great metaphor for how long it should have taken the gang to arrive in Canterlot

Remember Ponyville to Canterlot is an overnight trip by train

Here's the trip

They took seemingly in a matter of minutes and likely on hoof

Skystar bowls some goons over Murdock contains one with a life preserver.This one just stabs him in the back

It doesn't aid the fight a whole lot they just enjoy inflicting pain

Fluttershy's the one who inflicts real pain though in the form of overpriced therapy bills

You know it's been a while since the horrors of trench warfare when my little pony has to tiptoe around

physical violence but burning fur-covered enemies alive is A-ok

How indeed Capper isn't even holding spike anymore?

Tempest's back story's is all about how

She realized trusting anyone was a bad idea and going at it alone is best the Storm Kings betrayal confirms that anti morale for her

Deus Ex Pinkia

Pinkie Pie! You know only bulls can use that word! Yes together even though

It'd be so much easier and safer for Rarity to levitate the staff down

Twilight lost her magic but what's fashion horses excuse if the magic smoke spread far enough to reach the Storm King

Why didn't it affect the mane six?

They're a lot closer to where the orb activated princess saves the princessess and the princessess's Castle

Derpy literally saves the day and she not taken a bullet for Twilight the Storm King would have won unopposed.

Subtract once sin for best pony!

Remember how all of Canterlot was practically destroyed?

Not to worry everything's all better now because literally magic happened in my little pony stakes are about as common as steaks

this animation glitch

Well most of us are still in one piece

That's a strangely cheerful tone considering she had not witnessed anything

They just did does she even know the Storm King is defeated holding this indoor voice level conversation across an active concert

It's never ending ammo for YouTube poops Michelle Creber's name is spelled wrong

The studio which created the closing credits released this image of their work? What's interesting

is that the Storm Kings eyes are different in the final product suggesting a later revision to imply he's still alive. Thanks Hasbro!

Today we celebrate our Independence Day

Perfect for children with no necks

Aww you're okay
