>good? bad? mid?
Not as good as Rainbow Rocks but still obviously a huge step up from the first movie. I like Friendship Games but the stakes never felt as high as they did in the last movie, I like Sci-Twi but I felt like they would use her much better in the next movie, and I liked Sunset's continued development into a leader figure and especially the role-reversal in her helping save Twilight from herself like the original Twilight did for her. Other than that I found the villains to be really lacking, I know they have their fans but Shadowbolts don't have a fraction of the presence/memorability of the Dazzlings and Cinch likewise was underwhelming. I still rate it a solid 7-8/10 though
>how could it have been better?
Definitely think it would have improved from keeping in the deleted 'Sunset is homesick' plotline, the cancelled duet with her/Twilight was magical and it still makes me mad not so much that this idea wasn't just cut from the movie but NEVER revisited in general.
Other than that I think it needed better villains or more build up to Midnight Sparkle to help build it up
>favorite song?
'More That's Out There' (especially the duet version) but also the Decathalon song is really catchy
