This is genius. Rarity would definitely be Penelope Pitstop.
 
Funny considering Penelope was a southern girl.
 
Although considering how she acts in the 2017 version, wouldn’t that be more at home with Rarity/Applejack?

The cars are approaching the starting line  
First, is the Turbo Terrific driven by Princess Perfect  
Next, Friendly Fluttershy and Angel in the Fuzzwagon  
Manoeuvring for position is the Royal Guard Special  
Right behind is the Cutie Mark Crusaders in their Blank Flank Tank  
And there’s ingenious inventor Twilight Sparkle in her Convert-A-Spike  
Oh! And there’s the lovely Rarity Belle, the glamour gal of the gas pedal  
Next we have the Bouldermobile with the Pie Sisters, Maud and Pinkie  
Lurching along is the Lunar Coupe with the Gruesome Twosome*  
And right on their tail is the Rainbow Dash  
And there’s the Appleloosa Chug-A-Bug with AJ & Mammoth Mac  
Sneaking along last is that Mean Machine with those double dealing do-badders Starlight Glimmer and her sidekick, Trixie.
 
*Luna and Tiberius, of course

No, it didn’t. At least, it didn’t honestly…the prequels were created because George Lucas wanted to sell more toys to children. And the new films were created because, well, Disney; literally the only selling point of it in any of the commercials was “TAKE YOUR KIDS TO SEE IT!” You see, what people failed to account for in there was that the creators change over time, too, so that where once there was a starry-eyed young entertainer is now a bloated media mogul, or in the case of Star Trek and Roddenberry, a slightly addled old guy who no longer understood proper storytelling (he wanted to abolish interpersonal conflict by TNG). The original vision stays the same, and it really doesn’t have to be a complete remake, either–you can take the same premise for something and go a thousand different ways for it. Heck, you might even base it on an original idea that was rejected! I’d love to watch a Zootopia that was based on the noir dystopia it was originally supposed to be, for a recent example.

This. I mean it’s why a lot of people are at best lukewarm to the new Ghostbusters: A serial-numbers-filed-off style reboot. It’s also the reason I myself am only lukewarm towards the ST reboot films, as it feels like they’ve only made the body of a Star Trek film, not the soul too.
 
@Lawful Girly
 
You do realise that that attitude led to the Star Wars Prequels (and depending on who you ask, the recent Star Wars film too), right? What something was “supposed to be” is a theoretical good product, not an actual good product. Using Star Trek as an example, if you were a ST fan in the nineties, then you feel into two camps: the fans who thought that TNG was what ST was always “supposed to be,” and the fans who thought that DS9 is what ST “could be if you allowed it to stretch its wings.” Neither side is/was wrong, it’s that what something is “supposed to be” is not indicative of intrinsic quality, nor is “taking something in a new direction” is indicative of intrinsic failure, either in terms of relation to the source material, or what something is about.

I actually think the best reboots are the ones that take franchises that were good but could have been better and aim to get them closer to what they were supposed to be originally. Like the upcoming SWAT Kats reboot/sequel series, minus the executive meddling.

You know what? I kinda like them going this route with it. Its such a massive, ridiculous departure from the source material that I honestly gotta admire the sheer balls involved, but then I’ve always felt that the best sort of reboots are the ones that take the characters and premise and then run with them in a new direction instead of trying to stick too hard to what the source was like.
