Forget it. You’re hopeless.
Royal Guard: AH!!! Your Highness! Oh no, this is terrible!…… Who’s gonna sign my paycheck?
Agreed. It still looks like it’ll do good.
It also never follows up on what happened to the princesses after they were turned to stone. Let’s hold on drawing conclusions until after the movie has been released.
Edited
It described the Tempest fighting the fish guy in a very detailed way so it doesn’t look like they skipped much of a Princesses fight.
And how do you know that without even having seen the movie? The oversimplified novelization isn’t exhaustive and doesn’t cover every last detail (it barely covers the major points for that matter).

She doesn’t look like putting up a fight. From what i read it’s Cadance who at least try to charge at Tempest while Celestia give Twilight a quest before being caught off in the middle of a sentence.

Really? I must admit I’ve only watched the pilot so far, and it was a big slice of… alright?
That makes the comparison even more ludicrous.
DuckTales is only one episode in
Blaming MLP for running out of ideas next to Ducktails seems unfair, because Ducktails is seven episodes in, especially when you focus on a character who joined the mane cast one hundred and eighteen episodes in.
Now not to say Disney won’t still have fresh ideas by then, I’m a big fan of their creative direction, but at the moment I can only judge like for like. I’m not enjoying Ducktails first season as much as I’m enjoyed MLP’s first season, in fact due to slightly generic and bland writing.
It just started its series but already made a focus on Donald acting as foter father to the triplets and it started a plotline about his sister.
Ducktales is a perfect combination of adventures and slice fo life connected with interesting plotlines and character development. MLP doesn’t know what to do with theirs. When they run out of messages for mane6, they introduce bland character like Glimmer and focus the seasons on her. The Movie itelf ignore any development of Pony alliance with Yaks, Changeling, Dragons and Fluttershy’s bond with Discord in order to force a ridiculous quest to find a new hippogrifs race just because toy departament wanted new characters and not something that make sense. The writing team is subpar to the show they were given. Lauren Faust, AMy Rogers and MA Larson had much more ambition to make this series more epic than the executives of Hasbro that now run this show.
What’s wrong with slice of life comedy?
I’ll agree with Steven Universe, but Ducktales hasn’t super impressed me with it’s writing yet actually. And if you’re talking about the old series, I consider it about the same.
Just tell me what’s the joke.
You mean the “plot deus ex machina” that had been established in the second episode of the season and that came directly from the “plot deus ex machina” that the first two episodes of the series laid as the foundation for the rest of the series? That “plot deus ex machina”?
You obviously don’t get a joke… or reference (
_). Loosen up and get a life, will you?Edited
You wouldn’t happen to know a fimfiction poster by the name of Alondro, would you?
You mean, the moment where she insanely decided to hand their combined power to dumbest and least experienced of 4 leaders, instead of fighting herself, which ended up with Twilight folding nearly instantly and handed win to Tirek on silver platter. Brilliant plan. Especially seeing Tirek had 3 hostages and wouldn’t even need that contrived fight scene if he threatened Twilight with Celestia’s well being being hostage. If not for plot deus ex machina Twilight had doomed them all without thinking of consequences…
Nope!
Don’t get me wrong, I understand, thematically, why the other Princesses have to be marginalized.
I’ll have to see the movie to be make informed judgements, but I can’t help but feel there will be ways it could have been done better.
Having said that, I totally agree with your the gist of your second point; you can’t please everyone, no matter what you do.
Whatever happens with the other princesses, it won’t ruin the movie for me.
Well, that would keep the villain and the purported heroes apart for most of the movie, and would also mean that either the villain would have minimal screen time, or the depiction of his fight with the royal sisters would take time away from what should be the main story of the movie.
And, going by past behavior, the fandom would bitch and moan about Celestia’s portrayal anyway.
