King Phelous, it's beacause they always intended EG to be a separate franchize, which means maybe a couple of small refernces, but not a direct continuity in the show.

MLP movie on the other hand wasn't about alternative universe's humanoid counterparts of the Main 6, but about the actual pony universe exploration. So it was intended to be fully canon to the show, with continuity freely used in the show itself.
