Talk:The Beginning of the End - Part 1/@comment-36700661-20190406184605

OK....just to recap here....insufferably rushed plot line, with everything happening way too quickly, Chrysalis and Tirek were incredibly out-of-character, as were the princesses and Rarity, Grogar was an incredibly bland character, King Sombra's voice didn't suit him at all, the dramatic battle was just a monologue with some short back-and-forth spurts of magic, it took the Tree of Harmony being destroyed for Celestia and Luna to realize they'd foisted their responsibility on Twilight too quickly, and...hmm...did I miss anything out? Oh yeah. Discord's back to his Rick Sanchez 2.0 personality, and had pretty much no point to be present. Literally all he did was spout a bunch of sarcastic and condescending remarks, constantly leave the Mane 6 hanging when all they needed him to do was snap his fingers, and even his big moment in Part 2 was appallingly executed, with some extremely dramatic and cheesy friendship monologue which in fact, turned out to be fake the whole time. Literally the only good parts in this episode was the Mane 6's pickup line "We keep telling bad guys, but you all just don't seem to remember, FRIENDSHIP IS MAGIC!" before they defeated Sombra, and when Cozy was trying to teach Chrysalis and Tirek to say something nice about the others' species. That was literally it. Not what I expected from the Season 9 premiere after watching the trailer.
