Sees what Blue Fairy looks like in live-action Disney Pinocchio

Whelp there goes my childhood favorite Disney film just as I feared...Fell victim to Disney's need to create carbon live-action copies of their original animated films.

**** you Disney.
Now normally I say this is a joke, but nah, this has to be racially motivated idc.

Regardless of the game's final quality, at least I can see some passion behind it and an honest effort to take the series in a new direction. Open world Sonic could be ****ing rad if they nail it so here's hoping.

Can't wait to see more.

The Frontiers gameplay trailer gives me Hack n Slash type gameplay vibes and I like that a lot.

Might actually consider getting it!
I don't count on it but it feels like a great game to bring back multiple playable characters.

Open world is probably hard enough to design with just Sonic so I'd get it if they don't but still.

I'm just glad SEGA finally hired that man.
That man also worked for GF om PLA, he really gets around
Next up on the chopping block is Cerebella from Skullgirls. Someone I never drew before! I think I did pretty well on this one, but there's a few minor things I'll try to adjust next time.

There was a problem fetching the tweet
I love this

You really outdid yourself on this one, I love the lighting.

They could put a good amount of characters, true

I'm not too familiar with Sonic tho so as someone who's only 1st party exposures to the series were the Lost World Demo on the Wii U and SASRT, I just hope I can enjoy the gameplay, especially with how open world it seems to be

You know, where there's a big open world one of the most fun things to do is simply to fly over it. I appreciate games that give you the ability to fly or glide over large areas, like ORAS, BoTW, PLA, etc.

In other words I want Tails to be playavle in Frontiers. Please, I ak begging them to make him playable in a 3D Sonic game again

I missed the Pinocchio talk, as someone who’s been unimpressed by almost every live action version so far and has really only enjoyed Christopher Robin (arguably more of a sequel than a remake), I might actually try and give this one a proper shot as it actually doesn’t look that bad to me so far. At the very least I’m glad the title character practically resembles his original counterpart. I am a bit amused by the Blue Fairy controversy when the character only had two appearances in the original. Guess I’ll see how this plays out.

Also Frontiers looks good so far, here’s hoping it lives up to the hype this time

When a character in an Live action anything is made black, it will 100% get hate.

Thats just how life is as a black person. We arent even shocked when it happens to us anymore

Who even was that person? Whoever it was was killing the fairy look but damn, how many wings does a fairy need
Cynthia Erivo. She played Harriet Tubman in Harriet, and was also in The Color Purple. She also won a Grammy too.

But most notably, she was in Boss Baby.

Doesn't even have to be a white->black character. Obi Wan introduced an original black character and she still got racist hate.

Surprising? Not really.

Even though the Pokémon anime and social media accounts has been shoving tons of Eevee stuff down our throats for the past few weeks, I have doubts we'll see an Eeveelution in tomorrow's Scarlet/Violet trailer.

I still have a good hunch we're getting an Eeveelution regardless.

New Sonic game looks promising from the bit we saw. Honestly, with the Hack N' Slash style combat, I kind of hope Knuckles will be playable. That style fits him like a glove. I am curious about the actual platforming though, but rail grinding is back and that's some Sonic ass Sonic mechanics.

You really outdid yourself on this one, I love the lighting.
Thanks a lot, I tried to emulate the game's coloring style a bit.
I gotta try that shading style sometime.
Yeah, I normally do two tone cel-shading. Or two tone cel-shading with Black. But Skullgirls has I think 3 or 4 tone cel-shading.
That man also worked for GF om PLA, he really gets around

I love this
Thanks a lot.
