Newly Indignant

IT'S OFFICIAL NOW, GUYS! Twilight has been inducted into the indignant pony princesses.

Coincidentally, this adequately expresses my feelings on the finale. Twilight ending up as an alicorn wasn't the problem; bad pacing and execution was.

It felt like two episodes haphazardly threaded together; the cutie mark switching plot line was resolved almost as soon as it began, and the rest was a non-sequitur "all hail the new Princess!" Songs were mostly okay, but they were being used to rush things along, rather than to augment the story.

I'm disappointed.
