Check Out The First Trailer For ‘Equestria Girls’

Not too long ago rumors started spreading of a new offshoot of HUB’s My Little Pony: Friendship of Magic. Titled Equestria Girls, the leaks and rumors all had the same thing to say. Humanized ponies, in High School. When I saw the first screenshots I was a little bemused by Hasbros choice of direction. Well now we have official word in the form of a trailer. Check out “Equestria Girls”.

Coming out in theaters June 16th, Equestria Girls looks as if it is a MAJOR departure from the show. I must reserve judgement until I see it, but frankly this has ZERO appeal to me. Granted I am not the designated target market for this kind of film, but I was also not the target market for the show and I freaking love that! I just find it kind of… dis-empowering that after destroying evil a billion times, the most difficult thing Twilight Sparkle is going to face is being Prom Queen.
