"Textured and realistic" is going to become a new catchphrase around here, isn't it?

It won't be too far off from the fanmade design then. I liked it.

I'm secretly and slightly looking forward to see want they've been brewing.

My friend, who is a journalist, is there and said 'It looks like the Pikachu one, but bad'.
I still want to see it.

The trend of nightmarish 3D furry characters will never end.

It's been quite a few years and you'd thought they would have left that look in the early 2000 where it belongs, but no.

2018 and Hollywood still doesn't know how to translate these characters.

This shit sounds so fucking bad that my expectations are below ground level,so probably I would watch it day 1 and find it the best movie ever

"Textured and realistic" sounds jarring and I doubt it will have the same level of charm as Detective Pikachu to make it work.

Sonic games don't even break a million copies sold anymore, what chance does a AAA movie have LOL?

Pikachu surprised me but you know cute and all that. Sonic will be like a sport mascot made into a living thing and that's nothing but terrifying.

Did anyone honestly expect anything different? This movie is basically following the "shitty live action/CGI hybrid adaptation of a cartoon/video game franchise" checklist, and realistic character rendering is on that list.

The description is as expected, hopefully him interacting with the humans won't be something that will bother me throughout the whole film.

Anyways, really curious to see it.

They've made two movies about Bloodrayne. Does anyone remember Bloodrayne?

Sonic movie will do great, kids love Sonic.
When I visited Japan earlier this year I was walking around Roppongi and a couple of kids literally yelled "Sonniku!" at my t-shirt and got super excited. They were little kids, like 7 years old at most, Sonic is still super popular regardless of the quality of the latest games

Sonic has never been popular in Japan, not even during his heyday.

Just to help with a little thing missing from the translation, the realistic part means that the fur in Sonic's face is realistic.

I have my lawn chair unfolded and ready to witness this trainwreck from a safe distance, then go home and play Sonic games while weeping quietly.

D. Pikachu will probably be good but this one will probably be hilarious. Sign me up for realistic Jean-Ralphio Sonic.
