Equestria Girls went AGAINST the show's own core essence
Just so you know, I've been banned from the Alicorn Twilight and Equestria Girls forums, so I'm trying to find alternatives to let out all that steam. I know I've beaten this dead horse (so to speak) many times over, but what else can I do?
And besides, Twilight entering the mirror alone, without her friends helping her? Why would MLP be about friendship when Twilight wasn't allowed to bring her friends with her to the human world? And those five humans are definitely NOT her friends, despite looking like, acting like, and sharing the same names as them. The only way they can be them is if they have memories of being ponies who hang out with Twilight. Those humans have none of that, and are just ordinary high-school students who are awful, awful substitutes for Twilight's REAL friends.
Equestria Girls implied that friends are replaceable and disposable, that it's okay to deliberately throw your own friends away like garbage just because you've found someone new. Equestria Girls isn't about friendship. It's about kicking your own friends in the balls just because you've found someone "better". It's like Dragon Ball Z, where the entire original cast gets disposed of for someone new and "better", like Vegeta just because he's a saiyan and an anti-hero.
This movie also accentuated my fears for MLP Season Four. I thought that Twilight, even as an alicorn princess, would still turn to her friends for help, because that's what the majority of friendship is like. However, based on Twilight entering the mirror alone, this implies that in Season Four, Twilight will go on solo, never needing help from anypony, not even her own friends! She'll be the god-like Mary Sue I've feared that she'd become, no longer able to recognize friendship because she's too "above petty concerns" like friendship. And her friends will all be disposable, like they were in Equestria Girls!
