DVD Reviews, Reviews

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic is a very competitive and active show. There’s a not a pack of brooding mares on the screen. They are in constant motion especially Rainbow Dash. Games Ponies Play is a compilation of episodes that focus on how you can play hard with friends without creating hard feelings. It’s a tough thing to do since competition often ends up marking the winners and the losers. The six episodes include “Fall Weather Friends,” “Games Ponies Play,” “Power Ponies,” “Equestria Games,” Appeloosa’s Most Wanted” and “The Lost Treasure of Griffonstone.” Josie also wanted to talk about My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic – Cutie Mark Quests. This collection “The Show Stopper,: “The Return of Harmony” (two parts) and “The Cutie Map” (two parts).

The video is 1.78:1 anamorphic. The transfers bring out the bright colors of the various ponies. The audio is Dolby Digital 5.1. The mix brings out the zip when the ponies hit high speeds on the screen. The episodes are Closed Captioned.

No bonus features.
