Legends of Equestria - Forum

Yes, indeed, we have a clue that there might be a second Equestria Girls movie coming. The speculation came from the appearance of new Equestria Girls dolls and was apparently confirmed by two Hasbro employees.

What will be the new movie's plot/theme?

Oooh. :3



Source: http://www.equestriadaily.com/2014/01/unconfirmed-next-equestria-girls-movie.html

So, here's what we know:




If you say anything that relates to what might happen in the season 4 finale, please specify that you're mentioning it and put it in a spoiler. If our speculations are right, I wouldn't want to spoil the surprise for anyone who doesn't want to see it coming.

It would be interesting...I myself am somewhat mixed of EQG but it would be interesting to see what they can do to make it more plausible this time around.

Nice!

Let's hope not.

The toys are still ugly. lol

I'm actually super hyped for this! (And not just for the Trixie)

................................................................

>:O >.< >A< ovO D: D: DD: >:/ :x

Yeah... this is just great...

NOT.

Wait...

Hmm...

I said I would FORCE myself to watch Equestria Girls if I couldn't beat Persona 3 FES "The Answer" right?

Luckily I did.

BECAUSE I'M THAT AWESOME.


What should my challenge be this time?

I'll have to think about it.

---

P.S.: I'M GOING TO IGNORE THIS AND ACT LIKE IT DOESN'T EXIST. JUST LIKE I DID WITH THE LAST ONE. DEAL WITH IT.

I'm going to go back to watching REAL MLP:FiM now...

*goes to do that*


*is also thinking of a new challenge for myself*

---

This also means Season 5 will be only 13 episodes.

MAKING THIS EVEN WORSE.

THANKS FOR BEING JERKS AGAIN HASBRO.

>:O

As much as I would enjoy this, I must say that no TV show needs to have TWO movies for it. One is enough. It's been that way for pretty much every TV show I've seen. This is the first time I've heard of a TV show having 2 movies. And it's unnecessary.

Here's a thought: How about we make a REAL MLP movie that ACTUALLY ties into the show and builds upon the story, instead of just making another alternate-universe sideshow that the actually show just pretends never happened.

Call me crazy....

Why waste time telling a comprehensive story when you can promote your Monster High rip off toys with a shoddy, phoned-in movie?



It worked for them once, so there's no need to take a risk and change the formula.

I think the funniest part is that the Monster High dolls actually even look better than the Equestria Girls dolls. lol The EG dolls have such huge foreheads.

I'd love that, but Hasbro thinks dolls are totally in right now. Trying to cash in on all that Monster High hype.

So, if they want a doll line so badly, why do they not just work with Faust to get her Galaxy Girls off the ground? Didn't Faust say Hasbro wouldn't buy the rights to her toy line unless she could come up with a show to promote it?

If they can make half-baked movies like Equestria Girls just to sell dolls then what is stopping them from partnering with Faust?

I should have seen this coming.....too bad the toys are repulsive....

They should make an actual My Little PONY movie, not this EQG poop they're spewing....

What's the point of these dolls? They're disgusting and ugly and they look like they're trying to be Barbies or something.

I... really wanted to like the dolls. I like fashion dolls a lot, and Monster High is my favorite doll line. I wish the dolls looked more like the characters did in the movie...

But, more importantly, they make Hasbro money! Quite a lot of money, as it were. I expect another movie if doll sales start to even out (though if they drop too far Hasbro would probably stop making them, but I can't picture that happening.)

That doesn't always mean it'll work again, though. Regardless, it seems like Hasbro wants to keep milking this spin-off, haha.

Personally, I'm indifferent to this whole thing. I've seen the first one, and it was really nothing to write home about, so I don't really care for this. Though, I'm sure there's people out there who'd still watch it, but... eh. Good for them...! I guess?

Want my honest opinion? A second Equestria Girls is a waste of Hasbro's time to make. The first one was great, but it was meant to be just one movie. If they want to make another movie, it should be a regular MLP movie. But even then I'd rather they focus on episodes for now. Generally sequels should only be made for a movie that did exceptionally well. And as much as it hurts me to say this, Equestria Girls just didn't do so well. I loved it, but many people didn't. Generally when something doesn't do well, the sequel does even worse. So that's why it's a waste of Hasbro's time.

The first movie was alright enough to be enjoyable, for me.

I loved that Twilight wasn't so obsessed and googoo-eyed for Flash Sentry that all she could think about was him while writing "Twilight Sparkle + Flash Sentry 4Ever" in hearts on her stuff, like in usual high school drama movies. When he was around, she got awkward and flustered, but as soon as he left, she snapped out of it and got right back to business, like a person should.

My parents' friends' little kids LOVED Equestria Girls, and that's really what matters to Hasbro. Hasbro is unfamiliar with marketing toward teens and adults, much less boys, for MLP. That's why they let third party companies like Funko use their IP to market toward bronies, so Hasbro doesn't have to concentrate on that part of the fandom.

Now, a Battle of the Bands theme actually seems quite interesting to me, and the first movie was alright enough to make me feel like giving Rainbow Rock a chance and check it out when it's released.

At the very least, it'll probably give us some more good songs to listen to. The first movie's songs were... hit and miss with only one of them being good. Let's hope the second one gives us some good ones, especially since it's called Rainbow Rock.

If the rumours turn out to be true and there are going to make another one, I do hope they focus on the alternative mane6 instead of having them be brought from Equestria. Also I do hope that they include Sunset Shimmer in there somewhere trying to be friends with everyone. Also if it's battle of the bands you can expect awesome songs.  :3

I, for one, look forward to hearing more about this potential movie and I'm sure I'll enjoy going to see it with all of my friends just as I did with the first one. I hope that the community will not be so hateful of EQG this time around and warm up to the idea.  ^-^

*gives you a standing ovation*

I'm seeing a mix between people who want to see this movie made and those who think it's a total waste of Hasbro's time to make it.

I for one want it made and I'm excited to hear about it. I really enjoyed Equestria Girls but it did of course leave a lot of questions about that other world that weren't answered. There are of course things I expect to see in the movie such as how Sunset Shimmer's doing, the other world's reaction (or protocols) of after the prom night with magic all over the place and other things.

I have the very strong sense that Twilight from the poniverse will suddenly be able to take her pony friends with her to the other world, sorta bashing on the story of the first one. x3 I don't see that as much of a big issue, that more Celestia being....Celestia.

The last thing I want to say is that this movie, if made, will have one of three plausible effects.
1. The movie will be so great that it actually supports the first movie's story and makes it better.
2. The movie will be on par with the first film.
3. The movie will be so bad that it makes the first film appear worse.
Obviously there's middle grounds in between varying on the degree of these but this is just the short version.

I really do hope Equestria Girls 2 is made. ^-^

Except for the fact that Season 5 will probably be 13 episodes now.

>:O

I might be in he minority that actually liked the movie. It is bad, but it was very enjoyable. And I'm okay with the fandom shoutouts as long as they don't break the story.

As for what the next movie might be. I don't want to see the actual mane6 in there. I don't think there will be a good reason for any of them to go to the human world, and I don't think 30 moons have passed. I wish it is something related to the human world, like meeting the other Twilight or how Sunset Shimmer is reform.

I'm really looking forward for this movie... If it happens

What proof do you have of this? Did we miss an announcement somewhere?  o.O Or are you assuming on the sole coincidence that EQG released after season 4? As far as I remember they made 13 episodes because they weren't sure if the show was gonna continue as strong as before so they played it safe so they could've ended everything after it, if it turned out a major disaster.
So please stop spamming hateful and untruthful comments and since you don't like it, go somewhere else to whine about it.

Pretty sure season 3 only had 13 episodes because of some arbitrary rule about needing a specific number of episodes in a show to be able to market it worldwide. I forget the details. But season 5 will likely have the standard 26 episodes.

Unfortunately, if the rumours about EqG2 are true then it's probably already script-locked and the animators are hard at work right now. Point of no return has already been passed. That would also mean that the writers have moved on to season 5, so it's not all bad news I guess?

I'm annoyed that they went with a second EqG movie. Feels like such a missed opportunity for the show. The two-part season intros and finales tend to feel rushed because they write an epic adventure story and then have to squeeze it into a 45 minute time frame. A movie-length adventure story from the FiM team could have been amazing.

The only real benefit of making an EqG2 instead of a FiM adventure epic is...

Another EQG would be nice, but the merchandise makes me feel :x

Equestria Girls is sort of like to me how Super Mario movie was to other people. Why is it tied to "My Little Pony?" They're not ponies... sure their mascot was ponies but come on. It's odd enough that they have skin tones I've never seen on humans but are they even humans? To salt the wound they're in high school dealing with teenage problems.... what the eff?!??!

If we're not careful they will make a live action Equestria Girls movie featuring the next Hannah Montana.



But to be honest I would watch it because I love to cringe.

Spoiler: show

But to be honest I would watch it because I love to cringe.

Well, to explain...
1. Hasbro saw how much success their rival, Mattel, has been having with dolls, so they decided "We need to make and sell dolls too! Dolls are totally in right now!" Since Hasbro has advertised their toys using TV shows for decades, they figured they'd select a show that's already successful: My Little Pony. I guess they figured Equestria Girls could be a really good competitor for Monster High. If you haven't seen Monster High dolls before, they don't have human skin colors either, and they're in high school.

2. I'm actually one of the few people who is happy that they decided to make the characters' skin colors the same as their pony counterparts' coat colors. Around the fandom, I've seen a lot of annoying, intolerant comments on people's humanized fanart, insulting the artists for choosing the races they chose for the human versions of the ponies to be. People have fought over their racial headcanons. If Hasbro had chosen real human skin tones, those people would've said "Ha! My headcanon is right, and your art sucks!" or "No, no, NO!! WHY is she (insert race here)?! NO!"

Plus, choosing what races the characters would be would be tricky for Hasbro. I mean, if they made them all white, people would point out that a movie of a TV show that's about love and tolerance has no diversity. If they made them different races, how would they choose what races? They would risk criticism. It was easier to just make them purple, blue, pink, etc.

1. Obviously the dolls were being sold with little girls in mind.

2. Little girls weren't the ones obsessing on what race the ponies would end up, they don't really concern over it. That was mostly the bronies that make a big fuss over it. On race matters it's really a fight between headcanon pride of bronies.

3. It would of been just best not to make them in the first place. Why support them on something that was made to inflate profit and to disdain status quo?

Well, bronies make up the majority of the audience. 'Nuff said.

Really? Even if they did Hasbro won't stop MLP from being targeted towards little girls.

http://mlp.derpynews.com/mlp-neilson-ratings-age-comparison/

Ages 2-11 is usually the age they target towards. Now it's not known of those children are male or female but they still don't fit the brony bill.

I would say being around ages 15+ and being male makes you a brony.

Quote from: MrSpyro on 2014 Feb 03, 17:03:53

Where do you get that information? Not from actual viewer statistics.

I haven't seen the first EQG movie so I can't comment, I think some ponies here are being a bit harsh about the EQG thing but I DO agree that they should stop focusing on EQG for movies and focus more on MLP.
the main reason I don't like EQG is

1: Lauren Faust didn't like the idea of EQG, if hasbro had waited they could have cashed in on her "Galaxy Girls" thing...
2: it just seems like they want to cash in on the "Monster High" popularity.
3: the MAIN MAIN MAIN reason... it's started a war within the bronies!

And as we all know, "A house divided against itself will not stand." a good quote form Abraham Lincon, I mean hey, he's a pretty smart guy! he got on the penny! :D

Here's a trailer that was OBVIOUSLY edited. How could ANYONE believe THIS?

1. You have the right for your own opinion. Lauren agreed to revise MLP for Hasbro. What she thinks is not of Hasbro's concern. Also Galaxy Girls is something new that they have no right over. Better to take their chances with something that is already successful.
2. They are. After all they are a company and companies strive for the biggest amount of profit.
3. They hardly care about the bronies. It's nice that they get some bonus profit but they are not the main target.

Night Pony's #3 point is especially reflected in the fact that Hasbro themselves continue to focus their toy department on little girls, while letting other companies use their MLP IP to make stuff for bronies. The majority of MLP merchandise that is aimed toward bronies is not from Hasbro, but from other companies like Funko. Hasbro doesn't know how to deal in merchandise for bronies and would rather stick with what they know.
Of course, some background ponies like Derpy, Dr. Whooves (or, as Hasbro calls him, Dr. Hooves), and DJ Pon3 are an exception.

By the way, there are little kids who enjoyed Equestria Girls. I showed it to two little kids I know (a girl and a boy), and they loved it.
The remixed intro made them go "WHOOOOOA!!!!"
They liked the songs.
When Twilight ran off from Flash Sentry, saying "Nonononono" and he said "One no would've been enough," the little girl actually said "Aw.."
They liked the part with the transformations, as well.

that is OBVIOUSLY NOT canon.

I'm sure Hasbro would rather throw their chips down for the side that makes more profit. If EQG becomes a greater revenue of interest they would definitely continue it.

I could be wrong, but I think companies have to pay Hasbro in order to be allowed to make MLP merchandise. So, in that case, Hasbro does still make money off of bronies without having to figure out what we like and want and produce higher quality goods for our higher standards.

Equestria Girls 2: Rainbow Rocks confirmed! Just like the screenshot Night Pony posted shows!

http://family-room.ew.com/2014/02/13/my-little-pony-equestria-girls-rainbow-rocks/

Now, I have complaints with it.
1. Why Twilight Sparkle? Why not Sunset Shimmer? What happened to her? I was really hoping they'd use her instead of Twilight.
2. I really, really hope the songs in the movie are better than SHAKE YOUR TAIL (Repeat X20).

Though, I have to admit, when it showed Rainbow Dash being covered in lightning and then landing with a Sonic Rainboom, I was like O:

Should have been a rap battle.

My reaction to a second one? "No. Just no." :l

Time to rename it to "My Little Teenager."  lol

I hope to see a Lyra.

Good way to get children to read, I guess? Though, apparently, Rainbow Rocks started out as a book on Amazon, soooo... don't be surprised when EG3 becomes a movie too.

Oh, it works now.

So, chapter 1 of the book was released on iTunes. Apparently, the first EQG movie followed its book very closely, so more than likely, Rainbow Rocks will also follow its book. Since you can only read the first chapter on Apple products like the iPhone, someone took screenshots of the first chapter for everyone who doesn't have an Apple product.

You can read it here: http://www.equestriadaily.com/2014/04/rainbow-rocks-first-chapter-revealed.html

However, I warn you: Obviously, the book is written for children, so the writing is pretty simple. I'm hoping that the movie will be at least a little better.

Also, that first chapter pretty much confirmed my speculations:

And we have learned an interesting possibility:

Should have named it "Rainbow Glam".

Hasbro has been releasing Rainbow Rocks promo videos on Youtube. They are not going to be in the movie and are purely for advertising the movie. I guess they figured that not enough people liked the first EG enough for there to be adequate hype for Rainbow Rocks.

To be honest, both of the promos that're out so far are pretty interesting.

The first one follows DJ Pon3:

It's more like a really neat music video, but I like it.

The second one somewhat revolves around Rainbow Dash at an instrument shop:

That one's a pretty interesting scene.

One thing both shorts have in common is interesting, sometimes magical, visuals going on during music.

All we know so far is that the mane six will form a band and enter Canterlot High's Battle of the Bands contest. For some reason, they're able to do their Element of Harmony transformations, and they seem to get the "rainbow power" color streaks in their hair.

It's been hinted at that DJ Pon3 will have at least somewhat of a role, and Trixie will be in the rival band that the mane six compete against.

Hasbro has been releasing Rainbow Rocks promo videos on Youtube. They are not going to be in the movie and are purely for advertising the movie. I guess they figured that not enough people liked the first EG enough for there to be adequate hype for Rainbow Rocks.

Wait...so what's the movie about? 

*In a paralel universe*

Hasbro: Since EG2 isnt going as planned... we will have to make the Dragonfire promo something real... we will ask Lauren if she wants to help us with the storyboard.

*after some months Dragonfire is released*

Me: Its... so... beautyfull... *cryes of joy*

*Cries with*

What's Dragonfire?

The best April Fool's prank video that The Hub released this year. It acted as a promo for a made-up anime in which the characters are humanized (REALLY human, not Equestria Girls human), working as a crew on a spaceship called the Celestia, searching for a place to live in harmony. Spike, who's given a much deeper more mature voice, narrates the promo video. My favorite quote from it is "As long as there's discord in the universe... we... will... fight."

If you're able to watch Youtube videos, it's right here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-DDF0q68kw).

It's not real?!  O:

But. . .but. . .it looks sooo cool! >.<

The best way to make up for the first one would be to pretend it never happened.

Which they were doing a pretty good job of until now.  >:/

Hasbro: MORE ADVERTISEMENT FOR DOLLS! DOLLS DOLLS DOLLS! WE WILL BE BETTER THAN MONSTER HIGH! *Battle cry* >:O
DHX: No, please no!
Hasbro: Do it or you're fired! Give them a rainbow theme, and make them have pretty streaks in their hair! LITTLE GIRLS ARE OBSESSED WITH HAIR! ovO
DHX: *Sigh* We'll try to make something good.
Hasbro: Bronies like this DJ girl, right? Put her in. We're gonna give her a car. And a pair of sunglasses for little girls to wear and put on the car as a windshield because LITTLE GIRLS ARE OBSESSED WITH ACCESSORIZING! O:
DHX: Okay, okay.

Like I've said before: If Hasbro wants to get in on the doll market why won't they just work with Lauren Faust? She's been practically begging them to help her get her Galaxy Girls doll line going for years.

They have her alone to thank for the success of FiM, they owe her a chance! Galaxy Girls could be a successful franchise if they would just work with her.

^^^^^^^^^^^
Yes.

I dunno, maybe they didn't want to try to build a doll franchise from the ground up and would've rather taken the popularity of MLP and branch it into dolls. I wonder if they would want full ownership of Galaxy Girls.

So then, are the new McDonald's happy meal toys based on the second movie? Since they have DJ Pon-3 rather than AJ...  :c
