Then there's some games I've enjoyed but I'm more mixed on, like Sonic and the Secret Rings and Lost World. Unleashed is a game I also got a lot of enjoyment out of. The problem is that the amount of shit in that game sours the good parts. I also, and I kid you not, got a decent amount of enjoyment out of Sonic 06.
I love Sonic and I am not ashamed.
I mean yeah, you'll get a handful of troll posts exclaiming "SONIC WAS NEVER GUD lel" or pull up the infamous "Elise kissing Sonic" picture, but almost all major franchises suffer from similar noise. Just yesterday there were legitimate posts citing FFXV as an actual two out of ten. Report the assholes. Challenge them. They do the same shit in Spyro/Crash threads, Sonic is no exception.
But no one should be ashamed of being a Sonic fan because of people on the internet, they should be ashamed of how Sega/SonicTeam have consistently vomited over such a valuable IP.
You have great taste. Thank you for sharing the love:)
It looks like they designed Sonic to work if they ran out of budget and had to shove a child in a suit.
This is one of those cases where if you look at the right side long enough, you start to convince yourself that the left side must surely be some kind of parody someone mocked up.
Like, literally, cover up the head and it looks like someone in a costume for a SNL skit.
I legit can't say if people here and there saying this is not too bad are serious or not.
I mean, opinions and all, but even neglecting the horrible man-hog design, heck even if you don't know one single thing about Sonic, every single second of the trailer screams C-tier movie, no actually C-tier movie FROM THE 90's, straight into Super Mario Bros. territory.
I mean, I can maybe see it ending up a "so bad it's kinda good" flick out of pure cheesiness in the best case scenario, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Amazing how a fan spent a little time in Photoshop and created a superior looking Sonic model to the one we got.
Although it still wouldn't matter given how abysmal the dialogue is in the trailer.
I dunno. Movie looks fun to me. Not taking itself too seriously. Robotnik seems cool. There's really not a lot to hate for me. Sonic's design is bad but other than that I really don't hate anything about it at this point. But my expectations were at zero.
I don't understand thats jim carrey it looks very good
Sonic looks even worse in motion. I'm astounded.
And they gave him awful people lips like with Michael Bay's TMNT. Stop doing that.

One of the best outcomes of this trailer is that the Gangsta's Paradise music video on Youtube is being flooded with Sonic comments.
The movie can still be okay, but the trailer is really bad.
1. All what they tell us about Sonic, the titular character, is that:
1. He is fast
2. He quips(bad but still)
3. He loses hair (awful lot of time invested in it, without giving any good reason to care)
4. He saves the world(why him? Why should we care? From whom or what?)
2. James Marsden is in it. That is all what I can say about his character.
3. That other woman is in it. I don't even know if she is a main character.
4. They actually spent the most amount to establish Jim Carreys Eggman. One of the reason he works.
5. Unironic use of Gangstas Paradise.
Now compare it to Detective Pikachu.
They established a emotional core and stake with Justice Smith being frustrated and in search of his dad. The introduction of Pikachu is handled with a sense of wonder (Pikachu talks) and humour(Pikachu talks!). And they hinted a big adventure.

Yeah, while i do agree with many of the complaints i think alot of the reaction culture "OMG ITS HORRIFYING XD" thats coming from twitter and youtube are just people who want to be part of the conversation
I'm still extremely confused as to why Sonic looks like a dude in a suit. That's what makes it incredibly weird and gross to look at. Not sure wtf they were thinking with that move.
A normal (game-like) Sonic model with the furr/quills would still look much better than this mess. Shame, considering that they nailed Robotnik (even if it's sequel bait that will never happen) too.

How was it known gangstas paradise was the song? Due to a leak of the trailer?
Any links to that original info drop? I just find this insane, not good way.

This movie looks great, it's like a modern imagining of a 90's videogame movie
Jim Carrey looks bonkers

There must be something very wrong with me, because aside from how Sonic looks, I thought the trailer was actually pretty decent. Casting Carrey as Robotnik was a great move, he looks great in it.
I'm actually sort of unironically looking forward to this movie now.

Yeah, sonic looks bad design wise but the film itself doesn't look as terrible as everyone is making it seem.
No one expected a video game movie about a super speed hedgehog to be an academy nominee and this movie looks fun enough especially with Carrey as Robotnik

I've done a complete 180. I'll never fully like this design for Sonic but apart from the 'teeth' scene I'm pretty ok with how he looks, sitting in the car and in the action scene taking on the tank. I'm also on board for a Robotnik origin story.
Why do you try and curse me, what have I done to you
I am surprised there are so many people feeling what we have seen of Jim Carey's performance. It looks like a bad impression of 90's era Carey. Once again, I'm definitely HARD in. However, you people need to accept that this is going to be a crime against humanity. A delightful, glorious, hideous crime.
Seems right around the quality level it should be for Sonic the hedgehog unfortunately. Blue furball can't catch a break.
