THE MY LITTLE PONY FILMS
PRINCESS PROMENADE, RUNAWAY RAINBOW,
DANCING IN THE CLOUDS, AND FRIENDS ARE NEVER FAR AWAY,
ARE RETURNING TO DVD IN THE 2-DISC BOX SET
MY LITTLE PONY: CLASSIC MOVIE COLLECTION
(IN STORES JANUARY 21, 2014!)
"Four beloved My Little Pony films are returning to DVD January 21 in the U.S. and Canada when the My Little Pony: Classic Movie Collection is released by Shout! Factory Kids in collaboration with Hasbro Studios. The 2-disc set contains the films Princess Promenade, Runaway Rainbow, Dancing In The Clouds, and Friends Are Never Far Away.
In the highly popular Princess Promenade, Wysteria is beaming with pride! Her gardens are in bloom, her little
Breezie friends are in town, and it’s time for Ponyville’s fanciest
spring parade, the ultimate celebration of flowers! But things don’t go
according to plan when Wysteria accidentally awakens Spike the Dragon, a
sleepy, silly, 1,000-year-old dragon! For you see, legend holds that
when a dragon is awakened, a new princess is about to be crowned! But
who is the Princess of Ponyville?
If it’s all about rainbows it must be about Rainbow Dash. And it is. In Runaway Rainbow, Rainbow
Dash loves the time of year when Ponyville and Breezie Blossom are all
about celebrating rainbows. Meanwhile, in a new magical place called
Unicornia, Rarity is being taught how to be a Unicorn Princess and the
importance of making the first rainbow of the season. But Rarity embarks
on an incredible ride that includes a magic wand, falling through the
clouds right into the middle of Breezie Blossom, a visit to Ponyville,
meeting Spike the Dragon, and a huge adventure as she tries to get back
to Unicornia. She soon realizes that getting home in time to create the
first rainbow of the season is not an easy thing to do - but it is fun!
In Dancing In The Clouds, the
Friendship Ball is coming up, and Twinkle Twirl needs to come up with a
special dance. A roller coaster ride with friends makes her feel like
she’s “dancing in the clouds,” so Sky Wishes helps her make an extra
special wish to come up with a dance to make everyone feel that way.
In Friends Are Never Far Away, good
friends Sky Wishes and Starcatcher the Pegasus want all of their
friends in Ponyville and Butterfly Island to meet. Pegasus ponies are
very shy however, so the two plan a special party with music, games and a
Pegasus-favorite, ice cream. The party planning doesn’t go so smoothly,
but it’s quite an adventure!
The My Little Pony brand has been beloved for three decades, and is now more popular than ever. My Little Pony: Classic Movie Collection features 180 minutes of classic My Little Pony fun!"

My Thoughts:
If you follow my blog, then you have probably read a handful of reviews that center around the My Little Pony series, and how Savannah just LOVES her ponies. From apps to book to plush toys and even DVDs, you can't walk into a room or sit in our cars, without seeing ponies everywhere. Not only is Savannah a fan of the new animated series that airs on the Hub TV Network, but she also loves the old My Little Pony movies, which I grew up watching. :-)
I can't lie...I think I was more excited to get my hands on this upcoming 2-DVD set, which includes 4 full-length My Little Pony movies from back in the day. If you loved these movies as a child, you will definitely want to pick up this upcoming DVD set and take a walk down memory lane. I loved being able to sit with my girls, and a couch full of ponies, as we watched each of the movies these past few weeks. And, with the recent cold temperatures and snowfall, we had an excuse to hit replay a few times. :-)
Don't worry as I will not bore you with a review of each of the four movies. I was tempted to record Savannah giving her review of this DVD set, but every time I asked her about it, she would get overly excited and want to show off her ponies, or ask to watch this DVD set again. :-) I will say that we had a blast watching all four movies, and enjoyed them all. I was surprised to find myself remembering the movies, which I hadn't seen in 20+ years, as I watched my girls getting into them -- just like I used too!
This is one My Little Pony DVD set worth picking up, if you are a collector of this classic series, or are looking for a fun mother-daughter movie night. :-)
