I absolutely hate this argument that some have brought up here, since day one. “You will enjoy it if you keep your expectations low”. You should absolutely expect a great film the way the creators have been hyping this up. You shouldn’t settle for the mediocrity we just unfortunately got with MLP: The Movie.

I agree with you on this part, we should not keep our expectations too low, but...

I feel like there's a good reason I hold the TV series in the same high esteem as I do Disney and Pixar films and the movie did not measure up to it.

....you should keep your expectation reasonable... the show has its limitation. Always Aim higher but not over your head and never aim for mediocrity  

The reason this movie is disappointing (to me) not because it isnt Disney-level or Pixar-level, its story just worse than some two-parters of the show which has more time restraint and more kids friendly compare to the movie.
