That's really the problem. They fixed the most visible problem, but the whole trailer is garbage. There is nothing worthwhile there at all. On Earth? No. Jim Carey? No. There is nothing here that any Sonic fan ever asked for. Honestly, this looks like a modern version of Super Mario Bros. I don't care if you actually make it look like Sonic, the movie itself still looks like crap.
What do you expect, it's a video game movie, when has there ever been a decent movie based on a game with little to no plot? The only half way decent no plot video game movie was Rampage and that was in large part due to it starring the Rock and having only a little to do with the original game. I wonder what made the producers and the studio to go through with this given that Sonic hasn't really been truly popular in decades and movies based on games like it (like Mario Bros) have bombed in the past. I know that studios like playing it safe these days, and I'm fine with it and understand why they are, but this hardly seems like a safe project to me, it sounds like it was a bit of a gamble to me. Safer than a completely new idea but still riskier than the usual remake/reboot/sequel/prequel that Hollywood turns to when they want to try to play it safe.
