Well I already had a big discussion on it with someone else on another image, and I somewhat agree. Not so much that they make EQG canon, but Flash’s appearance supports the argument better than the Sirens appearance in a flashback does.
Long story short, without anyone acknowledging them as if they know who they are, it comes off as more of a nod and/or fanservice rather than flat out cementing the movies being canon. Being in the script labelled as the actual Dazzlings doesn’t automatically make it canon when their appearance isn’t even acknowledged, it’s just animated while the narration goes over something completely different. It’s like behind the scenes they just went “Well we have Starswirl, so why don’t we demonstrate the pillars saving people. That other series made a reasonable backstory for the Sirens, lets use them and animate that.”.
But despite it being done to match the backstory, not acknowledging them the way they did makes it up for interpretation. You could literally throw any monster in that scene and nothing changes. If they wanted EQG to be canon, they could’ve easily done it multiple times through the episode/s rather than dancing around the subject as they did.
But whether it is or not is anyone’s opinion, and nothing changes whichever way it goes. So like when Flash appeared, ya think what ya like.
Flash did make them canon.
People just refused to accept it.
The sirens outright showing up as blatantly as they did can’t be denied without going “B-but Flash cameo” which doesn’t work when he made it just as canon as they do.
Well look who it is! I was just thinking something to that effect, myself.
You’re not going to sink that bait hook into me.
Because a flash back that doesn’t even mention them by name or species shows them? That’s literally about as much impact as Flash’s appearances in S4.
I’m not against them being Canon or anything, but through all that talk about portals between worlds and whatnot, pretty easily could’ve shown the mirror in the background, or said something about the human world or whatever.
It’s a hell of a lot more like a nod than it is confirmation.
You might want to get a handle on that delusion.
Why? Not like that small appearance flat out means EQG is canon. Meant about as much as Flash appearing briefly in the series.
Here’s hoping that changes in the future.
How does being more popular matter? Isn’t every factor we judge these characters by purely arbitrary?
Or are you just taking bait seriously to try and “defend” Sunset, who at this point doesn’t even need it?
Thanks for understanding.
It just seems like trying to start a fight for the sake of trying to make a point against Starlight.
Reminds me of Lily Peet, actually.
I think he simply gets flustered because he wants to prove his points about Starlight but can’t quite do it on his own especially in the face of counterpoints.

I know you mean well dude. I know the feeling. Just believe what makes you happier. No point to get upset. If the show no longer makes you happy then hopefully some aspects of the fandom can.
Sounds like someone dived head first into am argument without realizing all the facts.
then again, your name gives away your bias
