So, I'm trying to get an MLP fan friend to see the movie sooner than later. Their concern was that they'd have to play catch up on alllll of the seasons up until 8 before watching.


 
But I told them basically that the only stuff they 'must' watch before that is up through season 3, and maybe season 4. I haven't decided yet whether the s4 premiere/finale fits better before or after the movie in terms of twilight's character progression.


 
Bear in mind too, Allspark / DHX had been working on the movie for a very long while, that's why it 'feels' like an earlier season in terms of canon. The only thing beyond s4 is, they spent a little time doing animated cameos of some s5 characters (such as Starlight Glimmer and Tree Hugger, Moondancer, & Starlight) for a few seconds during the first big musical number. That's it.


 
So would you guys say the only 'required' viewing to catch up on the movie's 'backstory' is up through s3? or s4 too?
