  1. Hehe Thank you! I have a few ocs- but I haven't quite settled on a single ponysona quite yet. I'll get there! Yay! Green ponies!
  2. Up until this point, I always thought that Sunset made a much better 'reformed' villain- as in the first EG movie, her motives weren't very strong, and she was- quote unquote- Redeemed- very quickly. Rainbow Rocks was the true shine of her character IMO, and I agree that it's the best of the EG movies without a doubt. Starlight, however, I thought would make a much better antagonist. Granted- revenge is a very cliche villain motive, but she made it work. Coupled with the fact that her magic power rival that of Twilight's nearly equally makes for a very VERY interesting dynamic. I've always preferred Sunset as a character over Starlight, but seeing them interact together sort of made me realize how different they are, despite their similar backgrounds.
  3. Something like that! I certainly believe Sunset has a lot in common with Phoenixes in general, and after delving into the EQG movies, I couldn't help but wonder why, or how Celestia acquired Philomena in the first place.
  4. I actually have a personal headcanon that Sunset Shimmer- before abandoning her studies with Celestia- was the one who presented the princess with her phoenix, Philomena...It's not that solid of a headcanon, tbh, but with Sunset's continued phoenix metaphors, I can't help but think this could be a thing that happened.
  5. I'm currently watching the 3 new Equestria Girls shorts- Dance Magic, Movie Magic, and Mirror Magic. I'd heard about these shorts and have been eagerly awaiting the opportunity to watch them myself! Mirror Magic in particular was the one I anticipated the most- Because it brought two very similar characters together. Seeing Sunset Shimmer back in equestria is something I've wanted to happen for a long time. But when I heard that Starlight Glimmer was being given an opportunity to visit the human world, I was even more excited. And now as the credits roll for Mirror Magic, I can say that it was a great blend of the canon and an awesome opportunity for Starlight's character to grow. All throughout season 6, Twilight guided Starlight through friendship lessons, and- to be honest, I always thought Starlight would make a much better antagonist. And as I actively watch season 7- I still see very antagonistic tendencies. It takes a while for Starlight to learn her lessons. It takes a few mistakes for her to understand. But- without spoiling Mirror Magic, I honestly think my opinion has changed of Starlight. She has her own place in equestria, and being in the human world for a short time has helped her realize how much she'd actually learned, and the impact it's had on her. Especially when she sees situations mirrored to her own 'tragic flaw'. Any Equestria Girls fan will enjoy these three shorts- they're 21 minutes long each, and they help to flesh out the characters and the universe within this human alternate universe. So I'm interested- What are your guys' opinions on Sunset Shimmer and Starlight Glimmer? Do you prefer one over the other? Are they too similar? Let me know! Lets start a discussion!!
  6. Thank you all for welcoming me so warmly!! <3 I can't wait to explore the forums and make lots of friends!
  7. So, I'm new to the whole forums thing- I've never been good at chatting on forums, but I really want to make some more brony friends! My name is Ellie, and I've been in the brony fandom for a long time- to say the least. I actually dropped out of the fandom for a while, but I came back around just in time for season 7! <3 I hope to make some friends around here, because I really need some good pals to talk about MLP headcanons and theories with!
