Have you seen Dance Magic/Movie Magic/Mirror Magic set of mini-movies yet? They build off of each and other and effectively function as a sort-of 5th movie.
Not entire; clips and summaries, yes. It's all a bit disjoint to me.

Speaking (sort of) of the movies, I finally got around to watching Legend of the Everfree, and I think it's actually the best of the EG movies. It was nice to see everybody working together, and in particular Sunset Shimmer just being great end-to-end. It's a wonderful conclusion to her arc-- she's got her confidence back and her enthusiasm for magic, and she's sharing that with everybody else instead of going power-mad, feeling outcast, or desparate for Twilight's help.
It gave me Sciset shippy vibes ^^ Though all in all I ranked at relatively low. Strong characters stuff, but not as powerful a plot as 2 and 3.
If you got Sunset/EGTwilight shipping outta that movie, though, I think you've gotta ignore the much more directly shown Twilight/Timber interactions and, less obviously, Sunset and Flash's chemistry.
I think Hasbro has loosely implied that she's the Element of Compassion/Empathy/Forgiveness, which is in line with that. Starlight Glimmer is also kind of working on that element in her own way as she becomes a seventh ranger to the pony six. She also has an interesting mixture of symmetries with Sunset Shimmer. Shimmer is largely confident in her social skills but not in magical matters, Glimmer is the reverse.Sunset's a natural leader among a group of friends, and a very social person (even as a villain she was social). In some ways she's an inverse of Twilight, who wasn't that social to start with and had to learn friendship. IMO she's someone who defines herself by her role with friends to an extent (when she was thinking about leaving back for ponyworld, it was when she thought she'd done all she needed to do for them and they'd be fine without her). She's the Mom Friend, she wants to swoop in and help other people get through their problems. Like, if there's nothing to superhero, she's kinda listless and looks for a project she can get everyone together on. That's how I see it.
Fair enough.Keep in mind that she's like that when it's, like, doing a fundraiser or camp activity. Sunset isn't defined by her confrontations against big bad, she's basically the type that'll be a community organizer and look for something to manage and help people with.
Sunset has had less time than Starlight, but I still feel I have a solid sense of who she is and what she'll do in most situations. Being a leadership type is a characterization, and one that stands in contrast to Twilight or Starlight.

It's even less time than you might think; four movies is certainly substantial, but it's about two-thirds of a season's worth of episodes, and beyond that, the first movie has Sunset in a purely antagonistic role. The second is -- over and above the Dazzlings -- focused on her relationship with the group, so the opportunities for 'who is Sunset when she's not with the group' are limited.
Even so, though, there's bits and pieces. Sunset's got an urge to help people, she enjoys art and nature, and works as a sushi chef. In some ways she almost blends traits together from the others. She has some of Twilight's temper and brains, some of Fluttershy's compassion and enjoyment of nature, some of Applejack's honesty and practicality, some of Dash's boldness and certainly her loyalty...
I dunno about Pinkie though.
I know. Season 7 is the season that keeps on giving.That's fair. Twilight would be the more obvious pick but the existence of the Pinkie Files suggests that Pinkie might actually beat Twilight out, certainly within her own specialty.
Yup. Season 7, first episode: "Celestial Advice". Apparently Twilight has upgraded her visual aids from flat-screen to full-immersion-holography.
