while Herculine makes a valuable ponit about each chracter getting to shine in a full on feature length film BenRG also brings up the topic of how each chracter will be portrayed in a way every fan,regarless of seniority, can grasp. It makes me wonder the depth the movie plans on going for each character. Even with the apparently huge amount of work going into this production it would seem unlikely that more in-depth chracter development will happen to characters outside of Twilight Sparkle and possibly who ever ends up taking center stage with her towards the end, be that a quick overall lesson for the whole group or whichever new character gains a role of importance in the movie. I'm gonna stay optimistic and hope that not only will each of the 7 main chracters get a chance to shine but that they will not be pigeon-hole'd into their simplistic designs and will actually get treated as characters who do react in a varity of ways dependant on the interworkings of the situation and not their own tropes. The question is how the writer(s) will tackle this while making the movie enjoyable for fans who have been around since the very first seasons and those who are just now seeing a couple episodes and are being dragged along by their friends.

Man, it must just be the fact that we're finally arriving at 2017, the year it comes out, that I feel a little crazed on the subject of the quality of the movie. the suspense intesifies
