I’m still so confused as to the design choice for Sonic.
Like...why...WHY...does he have human legs?
It’s just so...weird.

I want to NOT believe that this exists.
You know, I was a HUGE sonic fan back in the early 90s... followed the story all they way through until I couldn’t afford the next platform of consoles..
But the 16bit and 32x and sonic cd I still have them all today
Collected all the emerald rings... it was my all time favorite, and still play them today on my 3ds
I think even my 90s self would have been upset at how bad this looks..
Even though I’m pissed at Jim Carrey for all the crap he pulled in Kickass2... I kinda feel bad for him that this is where is career has lead...
Sad...

Man... I don't know who James Marsden and Michael Hogan owed money to in order for them to wind up in this, but I hope their debts are paid off now...
Same here. Loved all the old games. Have all the music on my ipod. My Sega CD stopped working long time ago, but I was happy when I found out they released Sonic cd for ps3. Sonic Mania was really good. But this movie....just no. The very last few frames of Jim carry looking like how Robotnik should look is the only good thing from the trailer.
Sonic 2, my all time fav.. then 3, plus knuckles lock on. I freak’n loved it
Return of metal sonic, then hyper metal sonic..
I think I was a bigger sonic fan then megaman.. and I loved mega man too.. I don’t know what it was but I could play sonic every single day and not get board... loved it
Sonic and knuckles had the best freak’n music.. the egg man battle music my god..
Do you ever go to ocremix.org. ? Tons of video game remixes, some really awesome Sonic mixes. Ice cap zone is one of the most remixed songs on there, next to Schala's theme from Chrono Trigger.
Sure, it's not going to win any Oscars, but it looks like fun and has a decent cast. The fanbase is certainly there. My seven year old absolutely loved the trailer.
Oh, okay, so you ADULTS are punching holes in this. Psssst...guess what...
IT WASN'T MADE FOR YOU!
Try showing a seven year old Bohemian Rhapsody. Yeah, he'll think it sucks as well.
See the difference?

The Super Mario Brothers movie might edge this one out as being the better movie of the two. The only thing that came to mind after seeing that trailer was...
Tallahassee: "Any regrets?"
Bill Murray: "Garfield, maybe"
While its of course aimed for kids. They need to remember that a bug part of the fans are adults now. Hopfully the script is good, because Sonics design sure isnt.
Well, I saw that the director has decided to redo Sonics design. Hopfully they can make it work a bit better.
it already has the "genesis" reff, just add the classic "SEGAAAAA" intro, then in the end credit's as a bonus scene have him run over pikachu.... then I will get to spend hour's explaining it to my 7 year old son.

I honestly think my only real problem with what I saw was Sonic’s design.
If they can address that and make him look...a bit less like a human/Sonic hybrid...I think I’d be much more interested.
As it is, the design of Sonic kind of creeps me out for some reason.
