Bad - still on earth - no Mobius/South Island/Angel Island
Good - Knuckles placeholder look awesome. LOL at Mean Bean cafe

Guess we know the OT subtitle then. And Aw I was hoping theyd anime hometown green hills and go Galaxy hopping. That'd fix the issues with the first one

They have to spend at least some time on Earth since that's where Sonic is and where Tails showed up at the end of the first. Would love if they left at some point for some Death Egg/Chaos Emerald action, especially since Robotnik is coming back.

Somehow, I hope they make this so that if you play this movie at the same time as the original movie, Knuckles unlocks new scenes in the original movie.

Also: Mean Bean Machine reference. They're leaning into this shit now and I love it.

On one hand, I like Knuckles, but on the other hand, they really missed their chance to name the next movie Sonic 3 & Knuckles 😔

It's funny how they felt the need to update everyone's designs for the movies...but Tails is fine.

Can they re-use the Sonic & Knuckles logo for this movie probably one of the best of the genesis era.

The Knuckles doll doesn't have the white Nike chest thing. Fuck this movie.

Eh I think it might be different in the final CGI model.

I looked at it closer and it looks like that Sonic prop also doesn't have that little white spot inbetween his eyes (an attempt to simulate his mono-eye) as he did in the first film.

I don't think Momoa has been confirmed just yet. It might still be The Rock, haha.
That's good. Like I said in another thread, I'd pay $15 for Knuckles to get Sonic a Rock Bottom and call him a jabroni. And in case Sonic 3 is a Sonic CD adaptation, Kristen Schaal for Amy Rose please.

Now I want them to use those placeholders instead of cgi in the final movie. This would make it a so much better experience for me.

Knuckles looks great and the coffee shop is great, lol. Definitely way too early to say this is Earth only.

It's weird that I'm excited for more Sonic movies, but here I am I guess lol.

There's so much shit that they can use for future movies: the chaos emeralds, Metal Sonic, the Death Egg, Robotnik's grandfather and Shadow.

The Death Egg might seem too much for a more "realistic" take on the story that these movies are doing, but you could easily get the audience to suspend their disbelief with an explanation such as Robotnik using the power of the chaos emerals, an army of autonomous robots and 3D printing tech. He could build the Death Egg on another world, and use a ring to teleport it around Earth's orbit.

Really hoping for off-world or Zone locations. Those would of course be CG, so we probably won't see any sets for those.

Knuckles' proportions looks pretty nice. Don't care for the kinda floppy spines though, and where is his chest mark?

If G.U.N. is on the movie, I'm willing to bet that Shadow will appear either on the post credits, or on the next one.

I can't believe the first film was as good as it was.

I can't believe I want to see the sequel.

I can't believe I'm saying this at this point in time

Knuckles looking great as expected. Really excited that GUN is in the movie too, I honestly thought it'd be another movie or two before they got to anything from SA2.

I would like the movie to go to Sonic's world but I doubt that'll happen, at least not for the majority of this film anyway.

Still giddy that it's happening though, and that we could even get to a point where they do the Chaos Emeralds.

Also glad to see Knuckles is more like Sonic 1-3 version and not the Sonic Boom design.
