My Little Pony: Equestria Girls 3 Movie Gift Set (DVD)

I have already looked at these movies individually. The question is whether or not you have all of them. If not, do you need this? The short answer is – yes. My Little Pony has become a great franchise with this offshoot starting out as a weird idea and finding a life of its own….

My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Friendship Games

Honestly, I expected a sequel to My Little Pony Equestria Girls, and we got it, in My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks. What I didn’t expect was how far this offshoot of “My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic” would go. Now we have My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games, the third and…

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic – Games Ponies Play (DVD)

This does not replace the season sets that have been available through Amazon (I am still waiting on seasons 2 & 3, c’mon Shout Factory) but this is one of the better overview DVDs of the series. “My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic” not only survived the relaunch of the brand with staying power, but the…

My Little Pony Tales: The Complete Classic TV Series DVD Review

“My Little Pony Tales” is a separate series from the 1980s series that brought the franchise to screens the first time. It is the second generation of characters – these are different from the ones we are used to from the first series who were retooled for the current series. In many ways this is…

My LIttle Pony: The Movie (DVD)

The success of the previous television specials bolstered Hasbro’s confidence in the My Little Pony property to venture into a theatrical release. It didn’t succeed as well as Hasbro had hoped, and while this might be one of the better offerings, it was clear the movie was meant to be part of the marketing push…

My LIttle Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Season Four DVD)

Hey, Shout Factory, I’m still waiting on seasons 2 & 3. At the end of the 3rd season things changed for the cast of “My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic”. No, not like changed, but CHANGED. So much so that if you haven’t gotten caught up with the 3rd season stop reading because there are…

Gender Biased Storytelling

I hate “girls” movies. Why? Because they are usually condescending towards the gender, with emphasis on fashion or boys or whatever. The better stories geared towards girls are much more universal in appeal. Look at Buffy The Vampire Slayer, a strong central female character that appealed to both men and women.

My Little Pony: Equestira Girls  Rainbow Rocks

The first Equestria Girls movie was a hit. Naturally a sequel was in order. But the question of whether or not it is any good…. WHO AM I KIDDING? It’s My Little Pony! Either you are on board with the franchise or you’re not, and frankly, if you’re not, then you most likely aren’t reading…

My Little Pony: The Complete Series (DVD)

This is not the newer television series of “My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic” but the original 1986 series. Originally a toy line that began in 1982 or 1983 it served as a the inspiration for a television special a couple of years later that would serve as a pilot for a whole series. Now…

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic – Keys Of Friendship (DVD)

I have mentioned my admiration for “My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic” before, how I think it is a positive show for kids that is supposedly designed for girls but has much greater appeal. My 11 year old son watches it with his sister. It is well written with solid characters that are not one…
