*starts to watch The Crystal Empire*
*is very excited*
*watches*
Really?
Seriously, for a premiere, it sucks...no character development, no backstory, just twilight runs up there, reads a book, uses dark magic (!) to find the crystal heart, Spike delivers it, the end. And she passes her test, which is apparently almost as important to her as saving the crystal empire. And the villain? Discord, Nightmare moon, and Queen Chrysalis all have motivations and personalities. (Nightmare Moon is a spurned princess who wants the love of her people but gets twisted to hate, Discord is just a dragon thingy who loves randomness and chaos, and Queen Chrysalis wants food for the changelings.) That unicorn with the weird red horn? He makes no sense at all. Also, Applejack is kinda dishonest about the fake "crystal heart". And how does "you have to do it alone" fit with the show's theme?
And I was expecting such great things from The Crystal Empire. Sigh.
