IGN Spain published this teaser at 13:00 and deleted it quickly...

I legit laughed for a solid 5 minutes after clicking this spoiler. Sonic is the gift that keeps on giving

How and or WHY. I thought they'd get it wrong, but to be this wrong? holy shit.

My God, the sheer edgyness of it, the cringe potential... I wouldn't miss this movie for anything in the world.

looks absolutely repellent, potentially on the level of the Michael Bay TMNT films in terms of its ability to inspire revulsion through bad CG character design

I take back anything bad I said about Detective Pikachu's use of realistic fur and scales and such. it could have turned out so much worse

Man, I'm really sad. I was secretly hoping it'd be something a little closer to say, Rocket from Guardians of the Galaxy.

This? This is like... some freakish take on Sonic similar to the weird looking Michael Bay Ninja Turtles version of Splinter. Hope I'm wrong.

Sonic is a big part of my childhood. We just got Mania and now it feels like they're gonna run him into the ground on the big screen.

Can someone please rehost the poster? It just says "Bandwith limit exceeded" for me.

Holy hell that teaser, it looks like they stuck Sonic's head on a deformed wherewolf child's body.

Edit: ok, saw it on twitter, fuck, that snout and the eye are freaking me out.

Can't have a super fast, blue hedgehog with trainers on wearing gloves. That would be unrealistic.

Given the comments from the executive producer about them not going with a "single" eye...well, that little orb half-way up the face, between the nose and ear...is Sonic going to also have a bug-eyed alien face, to boot?

Paul W.S Anderson would have been an improvement. He would have kept Sonic looking the same. Even if it meant Milla Jovovich was the co-star.

After Detective Pikachu, anything is possible.
Detective PIkachu went in the direction of creating the Pokemon world with its live action direction. Many were wondering and fearing if they were going to have the game take place in New York for example. Nope. I feel Pikachu made the correct decisions to make the characters and the world believable.

I'm most curious if Sonic will do that as well or will it have the characters leave their world (which could be adapted to live action) and introduce believability problems from the jump.

So I don't know what to think, on one hand I'd think "How can you screw up something so simple so bad", on the other hand this is Sonic so in face of majority of Sega's modern output you should be prepared for the worst, yet this still manages to one-up it.

Jesus christ how hideous that thing is, it's impressive.

Oh shit I hadn't even noticed he has no gloves... and the fact that they don't feel confident enough to actually show his face is very telling, he's gonna be the stuff of nightmares, isn't he?

If at least they kept the chubby body type, I could see it being accepted by most people ...

But nah, they were bold
