Guys! It's time! It's here! Gangster's Paradise and all!
This is gonna be something else, that's for sure
As a standalone movie, it's whatever. As a Sonic movie, it's whatever.

Seeing it in motion, I'm not digging the design after all.

Will I go see it? Maybe. I don't really think it looks bad. Just mediocre. If it wasn't for all of the memes, I just would forget about it/

Hmm

Hoping that it's sufficiently memeable

I mean. This is a Nintendo forum... maybe you just like Pokémon more than Sonic.
Uh, how about..no?

Like, sure, I played more Pokemon games than Sonic games, but I know ALOT of stuff about the Sonic franchise and it's long history. Even then, I think Detective Pikachu just look overall to be a better film, the humor, the design for the Pokemon, the references to the games, etc...I just don't get alot of those positif vibe from the Sonic movie and everything around it, and it's a shame honestly, 'cuz with the right peoples & movie company, aswell as Sega putting better quality control, I feel a Sonic movie could work really well in movie format, but alas, it's just looking to be...mediocre, not horribly bad, but not that good either, just, eh.

In his defense, I'm a man puppeting a 'chu avi and I'd have a hard time choosing between Pokemon and Sonic.

But I'm not having a hard time choosing between the movies. Looks like Detective Pikachu's got this one beat all up and down.

Well.

This is certainly a thing.
OK, the joke with the child at the end make me laugh, I give them that and the fact Jim Carrey look like he is having fun and his design at the end look great.

But otherwise...

Eh?
That Child in the Bag joke made me laugh, too. I'll admit it.

Sonic's introduction ("...Meow?") was good too. His personality is on point which is a good first step.

This might actually end up being a somewhat decent, even good, movie if the trailer is indicative of it's quality.

Of course, trailers are designed to make movies look better so... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thanks, while I dont dig the designs, I dont hate it. Might be worth watching it in Netflix with a bunch of witty people.

Heh heh! Wanna know something funny? I also think this looks mediocre. Not bad, it is, but still..

This reminds me of a story from Sonic the Comic.

One of the villains of the Comic manages to get Sonic in a trap which uses his own Speed against him (like, it's powered by his Kinetic Energy or something, the faster he goes the more powerful the trap gets).

After many failed attempts to escape, Sonic decides to... do nothing.

The idea of Sonic not moving is so inconceivable the machine breaks down.

That comic story must suck, because if Sonic do nothing after a while, he get a game over before the machine explode!

Like, If it ain't exactly 100% like the classic games, then why bother?:mybodyisreggie:

It's funny that the Western Sonic franchises paint Sonic as a hyperactive go-getter.

And then one of the first things we see Sonic doing after Sonic Adventures' prologue is sunbathing.

Honestly, seems like the guy is rationalizing the current picks and trying too hard to make it look like the DLC is something to focus a specific group which is the core audience when a pick like Joker doesnt give an idea about it and is so far removed from what the core audience wants.

Mate is probably underage :b
His legs actually make me sick

Sonic has no ass, seems weird.

Oh god Sonic somehow looks worse in the final product than he did in the leaked promo materials.

The shot of Eggman at the end was nice though.

On this day, my hatred towards Nintendo grew 3 sizes.

They get every advantage.

Everyone loves everything they do, even when it’s terrible.

I wish someone would finally put their arrogant asses in their place and make them scramble to reclaim what little fan base they had to begin with. They ****ing deserve a decade of nothing but failure after failure.

I honestly can't tell if I legitimately enjoyed the Sonic trailer because it was fun or if I was only enjoying it ironically because it was awful. It's hard for me to tell when I'm this tired. I think it was a weird mix of both.

Either way though that Sonic design was in uncanny valley territory though. Yikes.

An unrelated studio failing to make a video game movie look good has nothing to do with Nintendo but go off I guess.

Is this supposed to be bait or did you forget the Wii U was a thing?

So you're declaring how much you hate Nintendo... on a forum that's Nintendo related...

Why are you even here, then? I'm kinda curious.

Peoples give you reasonable argument as to why they won't watch a movie over another one and your response is this?

It just gets so frustrating when you like one thing (Sonic/WB/DC etc) and don’t like it’s primary rival (Mario/Disney/Marvel etc) and everyone wont shut up about how the thing you like is trash compared to the thing you hate, and that it would be better if it was more like the thing you hate, but doing that would take away the identity of the franchise that attracted it to you in the first place. It’s like people are actively trying to kill what I like.

You shouldn't form your identity out of only the things you enjoy. Taking people's opinions on media franchises as personal attacks is incredibly unhealthy.

I’m mad at the culture surrounding the companies.

When the Wii U was a thing people scrambled to defend it. Saying that it was actually amazing and people just needed to give it a chance. Heck, The Completionist still does!

I’m here because I like Smash and Smash has lots of third party franchises I adore in it.
Plus I also like the world of Pokémon and adore DKC.

They’re not just doing that though. They’re specifically saying how much better Detective Pikachu is. That’s what makes me mad.

Look, I love Sonic. It's my first ever serious video game franchise. It kills a part of me whenever people call the parts of the series I enjoy as the worst thing ever. I want to talk about good parts of Sonic with people, not just the games made before I started playing video games. I'd like this movie to be at least decent.

I want to enjoy talking about Sonic with other people, not to bash the series or talk about how it should've been died or whatever. I hate the current state of Sonic fandom.

Still has nothing to do with Nintendo.

It does though. Because people aren’t just saying “Sonic movie is bad” they’re saying “Detective Pikachu is so much better than Sonic, it should be more like that”. That’s where the problem is IMO.
