First look at Shadow the Hedgehog in Sonic Movie 3
- Thread starter Camjo-Z
- Start date
I mean being tide to Lion King kind of gives it the edge. Sonic 3 was also going to be go against Avatar 3, which got pushed back.
Yeah that's my expectation. But so as long as it isn't Strassman.
Willing to bet they're merging Biolizard with Chaos since they're not too far apart design wise, and I don't see why you couldn't slot the lore in with some adjustments.

Yooooo this series of movies is in the right fucking hands!! The amount of fanservice we getting is out of this world.
Considering director Jeff Fowler literally worked on the game Shadow the Hedgehog - the CGI cutscenes, at least - I would be surprised if there weren't references to it in the film. The temptation would simply be too great, I imagine.
That said, I don't expect we'll get any scenes of Shadow blowing up the White House or anything...but he might at least say "damn" at some point, if nothing else.
I enjoyed them. 3 is going to be the best ever since I'll be in it.
If you don't wanna hold your breath, then don't jump in the pool.
Meanwhile I'm cannon-balling into this shit

This movie needs to start with Sonic falling and sliding down San Francisco streets in a metallic board while some dude goes WHOOOOO! OOOOH YEEEEAAAAH!
Crossing my fingers, everything up to this point is leading to this moment.

Metal Sonic when? Sonic 4 with Jim Carrey returning?
he could be the final villain in 3 instead of finalhazard
Read somewhere a synopsys of the movie that Dr Eggman would be returning alongside Amy Rose.
Hope this is true

well no Hesse didn't direct these opuses. (opusi?) He's the lead character artist and storyboard guy, though.
They better use the game music this time! Learn from the mario movie!
Live and Learn better fucking be in it

Funny seeing people act like bringing Shadow for the third movie is somehow scraping the bottom of the barrel. The bubble is real.
Anyway, ditch all the stupid fucking humans (except for Eggman, of course), lean on the edginess and this'll be good. AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, PLAY LIVE AND LEARN.

SA2 doesn't get enough respect for what it nailed. I think the story and its presentation for its time are underappreciated, especially with how Sega took note of their now-tween/early teen audience and designed a game and story to their taste. It has surprisingly dark moments and writing that would really resonate with that demographic looking for something more 'mature' (at least in their eyes). Even then it never goes full edge.
Also Shadow in SA2 is just a great rival character. When you look across the expanse of shonen and realize the worshiped rival characters are awful shit like Vegeta/Sasuke/Bakugo, you realize how great Shadow is in comparison.
This is all in the context of SA2 mind you. I haven't played Heroes since my younger years and never even looked twice at 06.

Watch Shadow's cutscenes from 06. By far his best incarnation since his debut.
We are so fucking back
Can't believe i'll live to see a kid get shot by government officials followed by the space sequence while Live and Learn blares through the cinema.
Kino is back on the menu boys.
I actually just realized like last week myself that modern characters do indeed have 5. I always thought they had 4 too.

Sonic adventure 2 is referenced in media like...to this day. What are you even talking about
I saw a kid with shadow on his book bag. This is all anecdotal. what does that even mean

Second Sonic Movie was really bad (in my view). For my taste it was way to "americanized" with all the jokes and whatsoever.
Still looking forward to Sonic 3, and hope, it will be better.

Shadow, without question, is one of the most popular characters in the entire Sonic pantheon, consistently second to Sonic. Also, I think you would get your answer if you were in any theater that stuck around for the post credits scene:

Curious what your thoughts will be! It felt like a perfect balance without skewing too edgy or brooding, as well as developing his character in a very natural way post SA2. I feel like he's been relegated to a less dimensional, snide rival to Sonic since then which has been disappointing.

I loved Sonic Adventure and SA2 on Dreamcast! Shadow is cool but i really want live action Chaos, been waiting for that since the first time i saw Sonic Adventure's opening.
I think that in addition to having Shadow, the film will also have Amy in it (and I think Rouge could also appear in the Knuckles series).
Watched it, was actually great. Even got to see the origin of the meme spinning headkick!
I loved how he discovers what happens to him in the future and dismisses it and stays focused on the bad guy wanting to blow up the world. It would have been so easy to make it a subject to brood and cry over, but it's never anything that distracts him from his course. Really good, because turning on humanity again after SA2 would have made no sense.
Also yeah, he's not rude or mean or anything, just introverted. It's almost like... he's the opposite of Sonic! And he doesn't have to be an edgy asshole to get that across.
That said, the #1 thing I realized watching those cutscenes and going back and skimming through SA2 (already know it mostly) is how Rouge is actually pretty pivotal to his character. My favorite scene out of all those was them on the beach and her letting him know she always had his back. They have a very tight friendship, almost family even. I wonder if Sonic 3 will have her in it or if she's just 'too much' for Hollywood.
Ever since the post credits scene of Sonic 2 I've felt SA1 would actually be a good basis for Sonic 4. Following up a man made monstrosity with a God of Destruction fits in terms of escalation and it would give a break between Shadow's appearances to give his """"death"""" more weight.
