I want to suggest that Equestria Girls should be disqualified from the 2013
UMAs
The reasons are
1. The Ponies only appear at the the beginning and the end of the film
2. The majority of the film has nothing Anthropomorphic involved

Dear Everyone;
I highly doubt that "Equestria Girls" will be one of my choices for the 2013
final ballot, but if it is disqualified from the Recommended List for
insufficient Furry content, to be consistent we should also disqualify "The
Croods" (Belt, the sloth, is a very minor supporting character) and "Oz, the
Great and Powerful" (a single talking flying monkey; did anyone notice how
all the other flying monkeys are really baboons, to make him stand out?).
I really do not want to get into arguing over whether a recommended title is
"Furry enough". This has been why the Recommended List has traditionally
accepted everything that anyone recommends.
Best wishes;
Fred

I fear people will vote for Equestria Girls b/c of the MLP name w/oAnd so they might. But there's a lot of time and film on the clock as yet.
