Rainbow Rocks: Blast Back to the 80's

Rainbow Rocks has now been properly announced and even a bit of a teaser has been released. Wouldn't call it a trailer, it doesn't show much about the plot minus the obvious stuff that the title gives us. But it does give us a feel what the music might be like. Imagine if Daniel Ingram, the cast of Highschool Musical and some 80's pop band got a lil' tipsy one night and this was the result. According to the man himself, there's going to 18 songs in this movie, can't wait to hear them.

Equestria Girls The Second Coming: Top of the Pops Edition

There's been a sudden burst of interest concerning what might very well hint at a second Equestria Girls film. I recall this being hinted at a few months ago thanks to a new toy line called Rainbow Rocks. Personally I thought they could manage to sell the dolls without having to splash out on another Equestria Girls film, but i'm not the guy in-charge of what Hasbro spends their money on.

I did however, as I'm sure you're aware, enjoy Equestria Girls. So i'm not overly against a second coming. It'll be interesting to see where they take it. Will it have the same awesome story revolving around a villain. Or will it be more a slice of a life where nothing bad as such is happening.

Season V is Confirmed Because Roman Numerals Are Cool

Surely you all know by now that our masters have teased us with a new revelation. This addition to the book of chromosomes was sent down from the heavens, stating one important fact.

"Season 5 is confirmed"

Get hype! I always love to hear about the next season being confirmed, especially when it's this early into a currently airing season. It means we know we practically have at least another two years of mucking around posting ponies. It's not even like we can ask the entire "what's your hopes for Season x" thing, since we still have a chock load of Season 4 to go.

Though what do I think about the fandom? Well, some will come and go, I know that for sure. Next lot of drama will surely be about a second Equestria Girls film where Twilight becomes a groupie for Flash Sentry's boy band. It'll end up with Twi being arrested for driving recklessly after taking some strange substance she found behind the bike sheds at Canterlot High.

Trixie is looking rather Punk!

So Walmart released some pictures of a new Trixie doll in the Equestria Girls range. She looks goth punk as hell. If the dolls weren't so flimsy i'd consider buying more of them, only got the Twi and Sunset shimmer set myself. Where as MLP toys tend to be a little 'hardy' and sort of have that unbreakable feel to them, the Equestria Girls dolls feel like they'd snap in two if you played with them too hard. Shame really because some of them looks dead stylish!

Equestria Girls Review [Spoilers]

It's been over a week now since Equestria Girls hit the big screens and we've all been patiently waiting for our American counterparts to metal gear their way into a cinema and record without getting punched by a soccer mum. For those of you wondering if we're getting an official release here in the UK, we're definitely not, Hasbro has confirmed this.

After running around the house trying to find snacks and being disappointed because we only had a ridiculous amount of oranges in, I sat down and began watching. For those who don't want any spoilers don't join us after the break!
