With the movie breaking 50 million in box office worldwide, and an easy pickup for moms wandering around stores looking for stocking stuffers, the My Little Pony Movie is definitely profitable. This means we have a good chance at a second one, or at least extended directors cuts that add scenes we missed.
The "Art of Little Pony: The Movie" book revealed a few different storylines and side-quests that were brought and cut from the first movie. Some of these could easily be rolled into their own feature film, while others just sound like really interesting ways to make the world more lively.
Below the break, I've dropped the list. Which one do you think has the most potential? Would you be able to transform any into their own movie?
- -Celestia’s brother ‘Cosmos’ serving as the antagonist.
- -A prologue of the Storm King’s forces conquering the Arimaspi before turning to Equestria.
- -A prologue where Tempest and the Storm King steal the Staff of Sacanas from Tirek’s brother Scorpan.
- -The Ponies travel through a gigantic, over-sized forest on their way to Klugetown.
