Okay, that is some glorious Sunset cosplay. I do wish it was in a light setting that didn't wash out the bacon hair, though.

This actually worries me a little. Anti-bronies are boycotting the movie with bad ratings, bronies will probably respond with excellent ratings and I feel that actual opinions by everyone else will just end up getting lost in the noise.

I. Am. SO pissed off. The movie was going to be playing in the city theater. Now it's not. And the nearest movie theater that is playing it is, oh, about an hour and a half away {can't currently drive and lol what's public transit?}. God I can't stand this backwater mudhole.

This is an oldie, but it still makes me smile.

Okay, that is HELLA CUTE. Thanks for the pointer!

Zoi's pony generator was pretty much the best for its time, and still works pretty well as a way to flesh out a concept. PonyLumen's 3D creator is also nice if you're looking for a bit more versatility, but on the downside, good luck emulating the MLP lineart style.

We need more fanart of Sunset forgetting how to do pony things.

I believe it was psyche, i.e. her mental state {yay English ambiguity!}. I'd say a crippling blow to her self-confidence and agency?

Heh, anyone else getting a bit of a Lackadaisy Cats vibe from this one?

She looks like she's supposed to be raiding a tomb in South America.

I have to say, unless I'm misunderstanding what you're getting at... that's both hyperbolic and really presumptuous. You're equating giving some attention to another character to removing most {if not all} to all other characters, not to mention a quite extraordinary claim of telepathy. If I can make an in-universe comparison.... maybe watch {or re-watch} Make New Friends But Keep Discord? Well, it's simple - to do would require breaking the established characters' behaviour. For example, whom would you substitute for Starlight in A Royal Problem? Or All Bottled Up? How about Every Little Thing She Does? Does it matter more that the characters stay consistent, or what color scheme they use? Personally, I believe that finding {or creating} the right character for a story is a better fit than having to mush an existing one into a mold that the story requires of them. It helps avoid damage to the story elements that have already been developed, and helps expand the world itself. To raise someone should not mean that another would be lowered in return - that attention is not as rare a resource as it might sometimes seem. If anything, I'm reminded of how I felt when I first started watching the show - I wanted to know more about Twilight and Rarity and Applejack and Pinkie Pie, and even Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash. There was Luna and Celestia, and all of these things that we didn't know, about either past or future, about Equestria, and so many other things. And there's no reason that should stop - with old characters, or new. There is always something new to discover, there is always a different perspective to look at, and another life to examine. "It's remarkable to me how a story like Cranky's search for Matilda could fill this room with such a unique collection of ponies! It makes you realize that everypony is the star of their own story. And it's not just the main characters in our stories that make life so rich! It's everypony – those who play big parts and those who play small. If it weren't for everypony in this room and many more who couldn't be here today, Cranky and Matilda's lives wouldn't be as full and vibrant as they are." - Mayor Mare, Slice of Life

Honestly, I think a better analogy would be that they wore out their old pair of running shoes and put a new pair on. Okay, maybe it's not a better analogy, but it's the best one I can think of on the fly. Cut me some slack here. You make a good point about the characters achieving their arcs, or at least the original one. But here's a question in return - why is a reboot preferable to changing the character focus of the show?
