I really liked the song and these shorts. IF this is included in the film we all already know the fans will be singing along at the theater showing. And yes this is being released in the theaters as the first film was.

They have to get the gym ready for the dance and don't have much time and they hand out ears and tails....

:amazing: how original.

"Musikvideo" - what.

Also, I really couldn't follow any well-formed cohesive narrative here. The Mane 6 combine their interests into a party theme... just to rock & roll anyways. :-/

Did you expect them to put together the gym for a concert and then sit down for tea?

That was basically the final chapter of the book, weird that they're releasing them in such a random order, and even weirder that Twilight is there in the clip. :v:

Whatever, still catchy. :yay:

What I'm saying is that none of their interests (which were explicitly shown and sung about a bit) relate to rock & roll. It was a complete non-sequitur narratively.

Yeah, that felt too similar to the cleaning up the gym sequence in EqG1 for my tastes, and the song doesn't do much for me. It was an interesting idea, but it falls kind of flat on execution since the end product of all their efforts is generic and meaningless.

Apparently, that was released by mistake on the german EQG youtube channel.

That explains why it came before the previous ones in the storyline.

I've said it once and I'll say it again, there has never been a thing that Rarity wore that she looked bad in. :vogue:

Now were they "wowing" at the fact that Pinkie gained freakish, non human horse ears, or are they all still oblivious to that, and just "wowing" at Pinkie's drum playing? :-I

I think that one was the best one yet, and stands as an actually good explanation as to why Pinkie might be a good drummer, strengthening her in relation to the premise.

Funny and charming enough.

Meh. Dense R.D. is way too dense.

What is the reason given in the books for R.D. to want to start a band, anyways?

Why wouldn't she? Starting a band sounds exactly like something she would do. TBH I'm surprised she hasn't in the show yet, which again I'm fine with Rainbow Rocks since it finally seems to be delivering on my need for a K-ON!/FIM crossover

Yea it feels like they don't really NEED a reason beyond 'Rainbow Dash thought it'd be bitchin', I mean, bands rock, Rainbow likes things that rock, not a huge jump for her to be into that.

If I had to guess through not reading the book at all though I'd say someone (maybe Trixie) mentions being in a band and she goes all "OH THAT SOUNDS COOL LET'S DO THAT TOO"

Because it's a Hasbro mandated toyline. :gotcha:

But yeah according to the novel Dash saw a flyer and thought it looked cool, or something like that. I'm sure the movie will explain things if the shorts don't.

That's probably what happens. And I don't see much wrong with it, many cartoons have done that "Let's start a band for a contest 'cuz it's bitchin'" plotline.

And why does everyone say Hasbro mandated like it's a bad thing, the show itself is pretty much Hasbro-mandated, is that really a bad thing?

I didn't mean it soley as a bad thing, just saying were probably not gonna get some long drawn out reason because we don't really need one.

I imagine it was something like..

:v: hey let's start a band!

:-/ ...why?

:awesomedash: cause it'll be AWESOME!

:party: Yes! Many much fun times.

:v: and well be called the Sonic Rainbooms!!

:flutterunsmith: or the Equestria Girls?

:rainbert: Nope, Sonic Rainbooms, none negotiable, end of story.

:fluttersmith: oh, OK.

Oh, well I wasn't just referring to you, but a lot of people blame Hasbro as making terrible actions for this stuff, as if they have no right to. And it doesn't seem right to me, since the entire show is toy-mandated to begin with, there shouldn't be a problem. :pinkieshrug:

Why do you the fans dislike Hasbro so much? Without Hasbro there wouldn't be a MLP brand at all right? :-P :smirk:

Why be so picky about it? This gen of MLP is the best yet so why complain so much about it, you won't want it all to end do you? :-/
