Is she really a filler pony? I mean, she was fully-animated in the Canterlot Wedding episodes.
Wicked, with Celestia and Luna as Galinda and Elphaba, respectively. It could also work with Cadance and Chrysalis, I guess.
Although, yes, I believe the plot WILL go somewhere similar to that, I'm pretty sure the crown itself is the Element of Magic, seeing as even the princesses fretted so much about it. The following is pure speculation, but the synopsis implies that someone managed to bring the crown to the "human" world, and I'm pretty sure Sunset Shimmer has no clue what the crown really is, since it's pretty obvious that her possibly only goal is to win the prom queen contest whatever. With that thought in mind, someone else, another villain perhaps, brought the crown to the other dimension and clueless Sunset Shimmer manages to steal it from Twilight, causing magic explosion at about :45 in the video. Again, pure speculation, but the writers, for me at least, have managed to subvert many predictable set ups in the past with beautiful results, so again, let's just wait and see.
Am I reading this right? Animaniacs, back on the HUB? You gaiz with the Hub are so lucky! Welp. Guess I'll have to wait for syndication. :( Here's to hoping that they also get new episodes (and a theatrical movie (DOUBLE YES)).

Also secretly hoping they update the Presidents song with Bush and Obama...
Discord? DISCORD? I dunno. I want him to stay the mischievous, cray-cray spirit of chaos... Maybe he'll be that way, but without all the evil. I trust Studio B, though. I'm sure it'll be good.
And after Trixie loses, she uses Impromptu Dance Battle(tm) to banish Twilight Sparkle from town.
Sorry Rarity, but Derpy's hair is so fabulous.
I hope Babs redeems herself and becomes a Crusader in the end. She's terribly annoying.
I do hope they pull this off. Bullying is a sensitive topic, and teaching kids how to deal with it while still keeping the essence of the show will prove quite difficult. Then again, the writers rarely disappointed me before. Oh well, I hope Babs redeems herself. We might have a fourth crusader in our hooves!
She must recite the Pledge of Allegiance backwards to beat Twilight. 'Tis the only way.
