Don't worry, you're not alone.

For Unleashed, I don't dislike the Werehog stages as much as other, but the regular Sonic/Day stages are seriously something else.

Jungle Joyride is prime gameplay; my favorite level in the game.

I like Sonic Lost World on Wii U, tbh.

Don't worry. No one is weird for liking a game many don't like.

So year is coming to a close. What's been everyone's top 10 (Or 11) favorite films?

1. Godzilla: King of the Monsters
2. Joker
3. Missing Link
4. Hobbs and Shaw
5. Shazam!
6. Crawl
7. Spider-Man: Far From Home
8. How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World
9. Abominable
10. Stuber
11. Happy Death Day 2U

Honorable Mentions: Ad Astra, Child's Play, Detective Pikachu, Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark

I'll just go with movies that came out this year. There are a few that I saw for the first time (Dr. Strangelove, the Prestige, Monty Python's Life of Brian), but I figure it's best to keep things simple. These are all of the movies that I saw in theaters this year.

1. Avengers Endgame: it's incredible that this movie got made. It's a culmination of ten years of separate movies brought together into one film. My biggest issue is that it would be completely indecipherable to anyone who hasn't seen basically every single other MCU movie.

2. John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum: I thought that the final fight dragged a bit, but otherwise, it was a solid and inventive action movie with insanely creative methods for John Wick to kill people.

3. Spider-Man: Far From Home: it was fun, though it's odd that the marketing tried to hide the movie's big twist that

Spoiler

Mysterio, a character who's been in Spidey's rogues gallery for over fifty years, is the villain

Also, I really hope that people watched Avengers Endgame before watching this movie, because the opening montage spoils SO much.

4. Knives Out: a great who-dunnit with some outstanding actors playing against type. Daniel Craig's monologue towards the end was hilarious.

5. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: I already posted my thoughts recently, I believe. I thought the first half of the movie rushed through some big events pretty quickly, but the second half was a HUGE improvement.

6. Once Upon A Time In Hollywood: the time that this movie is set in is much more specific than his other two quasi-historical movies, so I was only vaguely familiar with the events that were covered. Even then, I saw the big twist coming a mile away, thanks to one of his other movies. The movie is probably longer than it needs to be, and Bruce Lee is treated pretty poorly in it for some reason, but his dialogue writing is still top-notch.

7. Shazam: unexpectedly dark at times (I understand that the director has a background in horror movies, but Shazam is basically Robin mixed with Superman, with all of the kid appeal that you'd think that concept would suggest), but it was a lot of fun. Hopefully DC continues with this trend. (and hopefully we can get Henry Cavill back as Superman, even if it's for a cameo)

8. Captain Marvel: the last act (once Carol's inhibitor was destroyed) was amazing, though I felt like the amnesia plot hurt the movie because it's something that we've seen a million times before.

9. Detective Pikachu: the plot itself is kind of forgettable, but I was unfamiliar with Justice Smith going in and he did a great job with the emotional parts. The Pokemon designs were amazing, and I would gladly watch an entire movie based on that opening montage of Pokemon interacting with our world. Also, Ryan Reynolds was great as Pikachu, which is not a sentence that I thought I would be typing.

10. Terminator Dark Fate: not as good as the first two movies (though that's a VERY high bar to clear), but better than the other Terminator movies. (I haven't watched the Sarah Connor Chronicles yet)

11. Hobbs and Shaw: I'm not familiar with the Fast and Furious series (only watched the seventh and eighth before this), but I found it to be dumb but fun, and the Rock and Jason Statham are pretty consistently entertaining.

12. Toy Story 4: the movie had a good message, but I feel like it doesn't mesh well with the message of the previous movies, which hurts this one in the long run.

It's worth noting that I missed out on Joker; I was interested once the reviews came in (beforehand, I felt like an origin story for the Joker wasn't really necessary), but at the time, I had a broken arm and nasty cold, so if I was going to be constantly coughing and blowing my nose the entire time, I figured it would ruin the experience for everyone else.

Sonic Unleashed would be awesome if it wasn't a ****ing slideshow on PS3.

That just means you had impeccable taste

I like sonic Lost world because it was the first time you saw eggman legit pissed and Sonic and Tails legit pissed at eachother

Buy an Xbox One

 

[MainJPW]

I like sonic List world becaude it was the first time you saw eggman legit pissed and Sonic and Tails legit pissed at eachother

That would've been even better if the writing weren't doo doo.

The next best thing would be having Sonic and Tails legit throw hands like in the Archie comics.

 

[Aurane]

Can someone trade me a Combee real quick? Don't need a female, just need Combee. The weather in my game won't let it spawn atm.

Edit: nevermind, found out of weather (the ****?)

 

[Wademan94]

Even just switching around the Tails cutscenes in Frozen Factory would’ve been a big improvement.

EGGMAN

YOU BITE

I don’t know what this means, but it’s a Noipoi post, so I’m liking it knowing it’s funny with context.

 

[Aurane]

Huh. So here's something I just learned.

If you are on your bike and zoom into a different area, the pokemon that spawn in the grass will spawn in the weather from the previous area you were in.

So for example, in my case, seeing Combee in snow.

They should make a Metal Gear comic.

I haven't followed Yu-Gi-Oh in years, so I'm not sure if the top one is just something that's fan-made (given the completely different font on the top compared to the other cards in the pile) or a new type of card that I'm not familiar with.

Either way, it's like Bandit Keith's laughing at everyone who thought that the Duelist Kingdom arc would have the same rules as the actual card game (like all Machine-type monsters being immune to spells/magic).

 

[Wario Bros.]

I need to get around to swapping my 200GB micro SD card with my new 512GB one plus add the $35 eShop card my brother gave me to my Switch.

How do you read the comics? This sounds like a very interesting storyline.

 

[PsySmasher]

The game definitely had potential when it came to character interactions, just wished it was uh... written better.

Could say the same for most of the modern Sonic games tbh...

Anyway hope y’all have been having a nice holiday season so far!

To be honest what got me into this comic was the reaction over this current art on Twitter. I went to readcomiconline.to to see what was up and I see why people like the comics now

 

[Noipoi]

Cream’s having saga rn

 

[MooMew64]

IDW Sonic is 10x better than Archie Sonic, in my opinion. A lot of people complained about the new restrictions Sega put on the comic after the Penders fiasco, but TBH the comic is actually way better off now lol.

 

[Deleted member]

I’ve been following IDW Sonic ever since the series started releasing in Spain and I don’t regret it.

The comics are good.

 

[Deleted member]

Alright, for Noipoi, all images and voice ofer are done. It’s coding time.

My goal is to complete it without using a single tutorial.

I just read the latest chapter just to check it out.

It's quite engaging; I enjoy it.

Eggman in particular seems more menacing. The whole "rage zombie" mechanic is definitely darker compared to what he normally plans in the games.

And ofc my favorite character is Tails lol. His brain is a big bright spot that's necessary to save everyone, and is written in a very likable way here. Cream and Whisper are good, too.

 

[MooMew64]

On the topic of Sonic, I like to imagine him and the inklings get along:

This comic talk makes me upset there's still no ARMS graphic novel yet...
