And I think that pretty much sets the tone. The movie opens with tweeting birds have some lolz-fun by dropping snow on each other before flying through a sparkling rainbow. If the Smooze has hardened, there is a good chance that when they de-Smooze, they will find the corpses of their suffocated friends.įurther edit: Here is a trailer for the movie I recut (in November 2020) to kind of convey what I wish the movie was. When the Smooze hits a living creature, that creature becomes grumpy and disagreeable. A bunch of fundamentally nice characters are having a perfectly nice time when a tsunami of purple ooze crashes over their home, obliterating everything in its path, and hardening to a solid shell when it is finished, forcing the survivors to go on a quest to find a way of de-smoozing their home and friends. I think my thoughts about this (and, by extension, the Smooze episode of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic) are the very definition of “ what could have been” at TV Tropes. This is a stand-alone piece of media, there shouldn’t be so many unanswered questions. I’m really hoping bat will help me out on this, because she’s seen the whole show multiple times.Įdit: For reference, I recapped this first, and then bat emailed me and said did I want a tag team partner for MLP, and if so, would I consider doing things in the right order? (*grin*) Thankfully, bat knows which order the episodes go in, so I did this recap, then watched Nightmare/Midnight Castle then Catrina/Katrina. Timeline: I never really understood the order of this series, because the first episode of season 1 has everyone meeting the Flutter Ponies, who they didn’t meet until the movie, but the movie references things – without explaining them, ffs – which feels like it should be in the TV show. To avoid having to write out this title over and over, I’ve abbreviated to FiM. Second Note: Several times I refer to My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. I’m not good at health and safety warnings. Every time there is merchandise to be bought (aside from the ponies themselves), take a shot. Notes: You could do a drinking game with this movie. Grade: C (it would be an F, but that Smooze song is sooooo damned catchy.) My Little Pony: The Movie (1986) It looks like the end of Ponyland, unless all the magical creatures of Dream Valley answer the Ponies’ call for help! When her first attempt fails, she decides to cutterover Ponyland with a purple ooze called the “Smooze”. While the ponies enjoy their festive spring party, the evil witch Hydia is up in her gloomy home, the Volcano of Gloom, plotting to turn Ponyland into a wasteland. ![]() Contact him at or 80.Summary: Capture the magic and escape to Dream Valley to join all your favourite Little Ponies!

Jamshid Ghazi Askar is a graduate of BYU's J. The Common Sense Media review of “My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic” gives the TV show four stars out of five: “Parents need to know that this series celebrates friendship’s development from first impressions to true connections … but the show is part of an extensive product line of toys, games, and accessories, so young fans might be drawn to the brand name after taking an interest in the characters.” With help from her new friends who remind her of Ponyville's Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy, she embarks upon a quest to find the crown and change the destiny of these two parallel worlds.” The new movie’s title is “My Little Pony: Equestria Girls.” The film’s official trailer on YouTube includes this plot synopsis: “When a crown is stolen from the Crystal Empire, Twilight Sparkle pursues the thief into an alternate world where she transforms into a teenage girl who must survive her biggest challenge yet - high school. The movie, created by Hasbro Studios, the company’s production division, will then be released in more than 200 theaters nationwide its trailer will start appearing in theaters on Wednesday.” … The new property will get the red-carpet treatment when it premieres as a full-length animated feature at the Los Angeles Film Festival in June. “To maintain continuity, Hasbro retained the same creative talent, animation style and message of friendship. ![]() “Hasbro created Equestria Girls, a parallel world in which the My Little Pony characters were reconceived as teenage girls in high school,” Gregory Schmidt wrote in Monday’s New York Times. Instead of ponies, they’ll be teenage girls. The animators and writers will remain the same as the popular TV cartoon “My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.” The main characters, however, will have a new look. Next month, the toymaker Hasbro will launch a feature-length animated movie based on its My Little Pony brand.
