![]() ![]() ![]() This pushes the envelope on what can be done with the over-the-counter animation software. The animation is smooth and surprisingly good considering it was animated in adobe flash. Their new designs as human beings take bit of getting used to with the whole quasi-Japanese-anime look with their oversized heads, tiny bodies and weird skin colour (including purple, green, pale blue etc) but once you do, they do have a certain adorable quality to them. Fluttershy is still the little shrinking violet with an obsession for cute little animals, Applejack is still the country bumpkin, Rarity still the glamor queen, Pinky Pie still the wacko psycho and Rainbow Dash the tomboy sporty one. Other than cosmetic changes, all your favorite characters are exactly the same as they were when they were ponies. But before harping on that, one must acknowledge how true to the original series this movie is. Alas, the movie itself is shallow and that is its main sin here. Yes, the synopsis sure does sound shallow. instead of showing twilight winning over the hearts and minds of her school mates through her honesty, sincerity and helpfulness, she wins them over through the magic of song and dance. ![]() Now we have the big prom, which is one huge popularity contest. Is this the most gullible school or what. Heck even the vice principle is fooled by some badly photocropped (as in physically cut and paste) pictures. So Twilight would help to mend friendships that were torn because the most gullible girls in the world believed some fake phone messages over actually talking to each other and ascertaining the truth. an embarrassing youtube video, photoshopped pictures and anonymous text messages are enough to break up a group of girls who have been best of friends since grade school. Sunset shimmer has apparently been manipulating students against each other through social media. Once again the fish out of water, Twilight must start from scratch to try and fit in with this new world and make friends with these familiar characters all over again. Twilight ends up in another world where she is a human, there are human equivalents of every pony she has known in Ponyville and they all go to the same Canterlot High school. Our story follows Twilight Sparkle as she pursues a previously unheard of rival named Sunset Shimmer through a magic portal in order to recover her magic crown that was stolen. Heck there was even a "Gotham High" cartoon series planned which recasts Batman and his villains as high school students. Greek Legends go to high school in Class of the Titans, Rugrats go to school in All Grown Up,Transformers became humans at one point. Yes, we all want to see our favorite characters go to high school (or turn human if they aren't already). In perhaps the biggest piece of fan service ever, the creators of the original TV series have produced a whole new movie with the very premise of your favorite characters in human form and going to high school. For years, fans of the weirdly popular "My Little Pony Friendship is Magic" series have been flooding the Internet with fan art of the main characters in human form. ![]()
