On the Cutie Mark topic:

I have gotten myself a whole new theory about why ponies only have it on one side these days. That began with G3 and the term Cutie Mark also got introduced with G3. The term Cutie Mark may be a play on the word beauty mark. A beauty mark is a single mark on your body, not something that occur symmetrically on your body. I think Hasbro's idea was that the body marking with the introduction of G3 was supposed to be like a beauty mark and therefore only be on one side of the body and they have stuck with that idea.
As to why the ponies still had them on both sides in the cartoons was maybe because that was easier in the animation instead of having to keep track of which side it should go on as someone already said, and now that it's CG animation that is no longer an issue and therefore the single sided body marking has now been implemented in the cartoons.

Personally I do not like this :( I really wish Hasbro would ditch that Cutie Mark thing and return to the original two sided body markings!

I get what you're saying, but on the cartoons at least (both G3 and G4) cutie marks are on both sides, but then, the toys come first, so... I dunno.

Like I say, they're on both sides in my headcanon.
I will confess to being a brony, but I assure you that the things you may not like about them do not apply to me, I mostly keep the fandom name due to nostaligia, but I do genuinely love MLP as a whole, not just FIM, and not just the popularity of FIM - I genuinely love the show (and all the others)

I've been hating the look of the toys, but I liked the movie.  It surprised me.  Izzy was my favorite character.  She's like a toned down, easier to digest Pinkie Pie.

I have to say I liked it a lot more than I thought I would! I was honestly expecting it to just be "fine" but I was pleasantly surprised.

Spoiler
I will say that I found the ending to be a little strange though, it felt kind of rushed and rather different from the rest of the movie, not in a good way. The idea of it wasn't bad (if a little cheesy), but I didn't find the execution of it to be that great. And I was... really hoping they wouldn't go the angle of alicorn Sunny... Still, a very enjoyable movie it was!

Also...

Mayonnaise.

I watched it this morning and really enjoyed it :D Sure it wasn't perfect, and the plot was a little strange lol but I found all the characters really likeable and I'm looking forward to seeing more of them!

I really enjoyed the movie--though I think the G4 movie had better songs.  That said, the mob song was a bop. 

What is this?  Corn on the cob.  Who's this guy?  My name's Rob.  *ponies commence headbanging*

About the ending...

Spoiler
Was Sunny's upgrade supposed to be permanent? I just kinda assumed it would be a temporary power-up. If it's permanent, I would have expected a lot more winged and horned Sunny toys. What will she look like in the show?

Man I wish I had Netflix, but I don't so I'm going to be one of the few who doesn't get to see this until later.

How long is the movie anyway? An hour and some odd minutes?
My DeviantArt, why not drop by and take a look!

I really enjoyed it, I find these characters to be very likable and less in your face compared to G4 however:

Spoiler
ALICORN SUNNY. NO. I did not like when they did this with Twilight and I was enjoying an Earth pony getting some real good recognition. I really hope it's not permanent. Ending aside, the rest of the movie was fun and I liked the songs.
Currently looking for: NIP G1 Sweet Stuff.

Watched the movie with my husband last night and we loved it. I can't decide who my favorite character is yet. But great story, loved the soundtrack and many enjoyable characters and character designs.

I just finished watching it and honestly, I loved it. I think it's my favorite MLP animated content since the end of Gen 1 stuff.
