Fun Facts: The film takes years (perhaps centuries) after the tv series ‘My Little Pony; Friendship is Magic’

The film was originally going to be released in theaters but it went to netflix instead (thanks to COVID). 

Summary: In modern Equestria, Earth Ponies, Pegasus’ and Unicorns are all divided but one unicorn believes the three tribes could be friends again.

The Review: As a brony, I am pleased with the film, the characters and the songs (and the plot improved over the 2017 version) and this may be an animated film to watch again and again learning that friendship is magic.
