Equestria Girls: Love or Hate?

[Singe 2,109]

Not entertaining enough to watch repeats. Story is meh, majority of characters are forgettable, the world is uninteresting, and all three movies follow the same formula.

Let's see... it gave us Sunset Shimmer (and my favorite ship SunLight), more Trixie, good songs, the Sirens, the Crystal Prep 6 and demon Twily... I think I love it.

Buuut it also gave us Brad and these abominations of hell:

 

why

Yeah only thing I dislike are the dolls.

They're cool in my book. Are they perfect? Of course not. But, they are still enjoyable. It did take bit of time for me to get used to their setting (high school, really?) and character designs (Luna's outfit been the biggest offence). Now, I don't mind that much and can continue to watch the movies and wouldn't stop me from watching future EQ movies.

For some reason I love equestria girls! Just like KP said, these movies were supost to be bad, but they were good! I even got an EG fluttershy! 

[Ed Lyons 105]

I think love not perfect but what is (apart from the show)

Equestria Girls is the best spin off ever imo. Although I was slightly disappointed in friendship games the others more then make up for it. I stopped playing music after high school after playing music for 8 years. Then I jeard Rainbow Dash's solo in awesome as I wanna be and I decided to start playing guitar again again. Its so weird how much the mlp franchise has changed my life.

I don't love nor hate it actually, I find it ok to watch. But the songs are what really makes me like to watch it because they're great and all but still I won't say I love it.

I'm part of the minority that likes the movies! Rainbow Rocks especially was quite great, and though the other two had some issues, I wouldn't say that I hated them as much as other fans. Personally, I think some people are just a little biased because it wasn't pony-themed, but eh. And, uh, to tell you the truth, I mostly like the franchise for Sunset Shimmer. 

[PacificGreen 1,163]

Leaning more towards love. But not on the "totally love it" kinda love. 

[Nintenboy195 384]

I love them. Definitely my favourite movie series of all time! ^^ 

[lissierocks 9]

I love it although all the films are really similar, I also love Sunset Shimmer

[Megas 27,041]

I'd say more "Like" than "love"

 

The series has it's issues but I enjoy them for the most part

[SilentOne 80]

I dind't really "Love" the EQ series but I do believe that Hasbro have made it slightly more enjoyable. However I do feel the series does change the meaning of "The magic of friendship" in a different level of which it makes it look like a barbie tale. I mean seriously guys, I remembered when hasbro annouced the new equestria girls with the post on facebook

 

"We are proud to introduce My Little Pony Equestria Girls! Learn all about the magical parallel universe with high schools instead of castles, where six pony friends become real girls with a love for fun and fashion"

 

What happened to the "Love and friendship"? Apparently it have been place with "Fun and fashion" and even though I actually watched the movies, I still believe it has been that way still, it reminds me of this show "High school musical" which has a lot of drama which can be unappealing to some people. But hey, it's my opinion, some people hate and love the Equestria girls series right?

[GeekySonic 1,150]

I wouldn't go so far as to say that I love them, but I found them to be enjoyable. I don't think any of them exceed each other in terms of appeal. The first one had an ending that kinda disappointed me in how it was executed.

 

I just can't get over the concepts of the sequels. Rainbow Rocks had slightly better music, and did a good job of redeeming Sunset. Friendship Games is just kinda there.

 

I did not like the new Crystal Prep characters or how they were presented (not in the, "Agh, antagonist, must dislike!" way. More like the, "You are pointless and bland and make me want to stop watching," way). Especially Cinch.

 

If she wasn't so dry and predictable, I could have ignored her. But the near-end moment-of-triumph scene where the students all stand up to Cinch ruined the ending for me. Again, matter of execution.

 

Overall, I liked them, there are just a few things that I think could have been handled better.

 

I actually can't remember if I posted on this previously. Oh well. I typed all this, may as well post it.

[Sketchy Style 39]

I thought the first movie was kinda eh, but the second and third were absolutely amazing.

 

 I also think the music is VERY well made! Especially Friendship Games!

[SilyGeny 369]

I really enjoy those movies, even though the first one isn't half as good as the others its still pretty decent

[JeyWiz 1,097]

I love it, just as much as FIM. I don't understand all the hate for eqg, really.

[RyaN_ 292]

I love it, just as much as FIM. I don't understand all the hate for eqg, really.

It's hard for some to see our beloved ponies changed in every way, the fandom thought EG was going to affect the FIM series (which it didn't).

Overall, I Love the EG trilogy!

[KatonRyu 1,026]

Love it now, thought it was okay at first. Sunset's development made the series great for me, and her continuing story keeps me interested in more movies.

[----- 476]

I found the first movie okay. Not great, not good, but not bad, either. Simply "okay" because it entertained me at least a bit, even though the plot was most of the time predictable and I needed some time to get used to the designs of the humans. 

But after Rainbow Rock I began to like EQG and FIM equally.

So, I would say "love" in my case.

i liked the first one, loved the second one for the music, and i hate the third one

[Johnny1226 14,674]

I liked the equestria girls movies because of how easy it fit into the original mlp storyline, not just a separate story all together

[PinkieAwesome 65]

I love it

I think its great ????
