The techy one could work, but the newest book where they make her the jerkiest of them all were something else too. All 3 of her lines in the movie were aggressive, and I like it as some sort of a continuation of that. She were a bully, but just like most bullies, she is actually a very little person and would instantly felt like a fish out of the water when fsced with situation she’s not used to, in this case, its a cheerful and friendly athmosphere of CHS. She’s being quiet on the outside, but were muttering about how this school suck and she wants to go home on the inside! Hehe

I sometimes feel like they have to include Twilight in movies and specials, since she’s the main character. It can sometimes be intrusive and I can already see Sci-Twi becoming a big player and stealing some of Sunset’s screen time… Ugh.
 
As for Sunny, hopefully she’ll make a return. Kind of wished they made a Equestria Girls series so we could expand upon them easier, but until then, I’ll hope for the next movie.

@Evowizard25  
That in my opinion really brought the film down for me. Plus That Magic capture device was just “what” to me personally. I enjoyed Cinch, but I do feel she and Twilight got a little to much Screentime.
 
I actually love the idea of Sunny being a techy genius and I tend to go by that head canon.

@Mrmildock  
The movie focused more attention on Sci-Twi and Cinch, which honestly, did hurt it a bit. While I did enjoy Cinch, Twilight’s ‘magic’ collector was… Well after the second or third time, I think a reasonable person would have put it away or something. Perhaps they could have done something else, like some of the Shadowbolts got a hold of it thinking its just a neat trinket or something so they could have some scenes.
 
I mean, the credits make it out like they would be rivals. I don’t think Twilight needed to be there, honestly. Sunny Flare could be the techy one, what with that techy armbad… Actually, that wouldn’t have been that bad.

@Mrmildock  
They were minor antagonists. The problem is that we have five Shadowbolts AND principal Cinch. That makes 6 completely new antagonists to introduce and develop in one movie. Way too many to really give each one them enough focus, while also continuing Sci-Twi’s and Sunset’s stories.

@Tiger beetle  
For me it’s (gasp) Lemon Zest.(I love her but she is very very very overrated in my opinion but I digress)Sugarcoat and Sour were at best okay in screen time. I just really wished they’d at least concentrate on these five a bit more. I hate comparing them to the Dazzlings (especially because they’re not antagonists) but if RR could give three characters a chance to shine, there should’ve been no excuse why these five couldn’t get some attention in the FG.

@Mrmildock  
Well, Sugarcoat and Sour Sweet at least got some personality traits. Sunny was the most forgettable one, IMO.

@Tiger beetle  
Technically all five of them were. I love all five of them so much, but uhhhhh, all five got sweeped under a rug. Shame that all the scenes with them in it were the only scenes in the film I actually liked.

Please bring back the Shadowbolts. Sunny is so cute.

I like her design, but she was really bland in the movie.
