My Little Pony: Equestria Girls- Rainbow Rocks

My Little Pony: Equestria Girls - Rainbow Rocks; and rock it out she did! 

I have to admit, I am usually impressed with the way the Hasbro presents the MLP franchise. 

When I first heard of the Ponies becoming humanized, I thought "Stick to ponies Hasbro". However, upon seeing their debut in the first Equestria Girls movie, I loved them, and the sequel makes me love them even more (but not anymore then their pony counterparts). 

First is the intro: The 3 Sirens state their condition (or conviction in this case) of being stuck in a human world; upon this, they seem to be feeding off the negative energy of the little arguments people make of the everyday. 

After a few minutes, they see the "magic lasers" that defeated the evil Sunset Simmer. Upon seeing this, the leader, Adagio becomes aware that Equestrian magic has entered the human world and all three suddenly grows greedy lust for its power (as any villain would). 

Then comes the Intro song "Rainbow Rocks" I have never witness, with my own eyes and ears, and never thought that the company that brought me "Talking Bowling Pins" as a kid would come up with such an up-beat Rock and Roll song that I found myself listening to almost every day and every commute to school. 

So, to save the space of this post,.....

Twilight finds a way back into the human would with bad news on the Sirens and their intentions. And together with the help of Sunset Shimmer, they defeat the 3 Sirens with the power of Friendship and ROCK AND ROLL!!!!! 

I was pretty surprised that the Sirens turned out to be 3 innocent little girls who were possessed with dark powers for years and managed to keep their young human appearance(s). 

So while I love this movie, there are some questions that come to mind: 

- If the 3 Sirens were innocent little girls possessed by dark powers, why are they still alive after so much time? The history that Twilight provides in the beginning suggests that it has been over thousands of years (hence, Star Swirl the Bearded banished them). Unless one of the episodes in Season 5 or the upcoming Season and/or the upcoming MLP movie set to debut in 2017 reveals that Star Swirl didn't pass thousands of years ago, this would suggest that the Sirens been possessing the girls for a long time.  

- Now that Sunset Shimmer is converted to good and just getting used to this "Friendship thing" what is her output like? That is up to the writers and fanfic creators to decide! 

There are many more questions to ask,... 

most of which will only be answered by the fate of the writers, and some that cannot be answered entirely.

I look forward to reviewing Season 5 of MLP and hope that it continues to be a good season with outstanding moments (and Easter eggs!). 

Until then,
