You're suggesting a runtime of over two hours? Most current animated movies barely cap 90 minutes; DHX is too small a company for that kind of animation budget.

"In Rainbow Rocks, there were too many songs in the movie"

It was a musical.

"In Friendship Games, we are focus on the conflict and Twilight's role in the story. We didn't even get the chance to get to know the Shadowbolt girls a little more."

Unfortunate, I guess, but the Shadowbolts as individuals were not the focus of Friendship Games' story.

As much as extending the runtime would benefit the story, it would be a detriment to almost everything else: budget, animation time, etc. Plus, to the series' target audience, two hours is too long to hold the average viewer's attention.
