Interesting news out of Hasbro! Whether or not there will be an EqG3 movie next year, the first FiM Movie has been green-lighted for 2017!

Oddly enough, if you'll excuse a little Kremlinology on my part, I think that this gives us a clue for the future of the FiM TV show.

The first Star Trek - The Next Geneation movie came after the last aired season of the TV show. My feeling is that this precedent is relevant here and we've just been told that the last season of MLP: FiM will be season 7. In some ways, this is a good thing because, if the writing team, have a solid end mark to work towards, they can have a structured schedule by which they can plan to answer the remaining qustions and tie off the remaining loose ends like the Crusaders' cutie marks and Rainbow's desire to be a Wonderbolt.

I have a sudden mental image of the penultimate scene of the last episode being Discord rising up into the sky slowly merging in with the background and saying; "It's been fun, my dear Twilight Sparke but, as they say, 'all good things come to an end'! Maybe, one day, I'll visit you again...! If you're lucky!"
