>The footage opened with Sonic zooming by James Marsden‘s cop character, who clocks the blue speedster at around 700mph on his radar gun. From there, we learn a bit about the mythology of the movie: the rings that were all over the game serve as teleportation devices here. Sonic is in our world, asking Marsden to help him save his planet (so…I guess Sonic is an alien here?). Oh, and I should mention that we see Sonic speeding down the highway listening to the song “Gangsta’s Paradise”, because of course that happens in this movie.
>Meanwhile, the evil Dr. Robotnik – played by Jim Carrey in a mustache – is also on the prowl. Carrey’s scenes are incredibly over-the-top, and painfully unfunny. The look of Carrey’s character starts off odd, but slowly transforms into something similar to the way Robotnik looked in the games. Speaking of the games, the footage packed in several visual elements pulled right from them – but is that enough to bring in fans?
>but is that enough to bring in fans? No. Don't bother, let the gaijin movie die and be forgotten like Dragon Ball Evolution and The Last Airbender. Video game movies always suck so who cares.
>Oh, and I should mention that we see Sonic speeding down the highway listening to the song “Gangsta’s Paradise”, because of course that happens in this movie. wat
>Oh, and I should mention that we see Sonic speeding down the highway listening to the song “Gangsta’s Paradise”, because of course that happens in this movie. Excuse but why the fuck is this happening? I’m not even a sonic fan but this sounds like it shouldn’t exsist.
You mean the future predators from primeval only with dumbo ears attached now? Yeah that movie sucked. I hate all these gimmick “2 deep 4 u woke” pg-13 horror films that aren’t bloody or scary.
also that same reddit dude said the movie was very kiddish and kinda safe but that breastfed line that was leaked and makes me feel otherwise
Brody Watson
>sonic is hear And you're dumb enough to think this is real?
Nicholas Gray
It was written by deadline. They corrected it afterwards. Tails channel is legit as well. You gonna believe a redditor over an actual movie source that was there?
Aiden Diaz
nondisney kid movies have lots more gross jokes now
Landon Adams
What will be worse, this or the Pokemon movie? At least Pikachu can be translated into an animal properly.
reports like this with typos happen all the time cause they have to go fast. remember with joker io9 said "going crazing"
James Stewart
Imagine being a Sonic fan in 2019
Kayden Sanders
>sonic is listing gangsta paradise
Are you sure that these idiots aren't doing a shadow film?
Jose Martinez
why is Sonic so seemingly incapable of escaping his moniker as a pop culture punching bag
what did he do to deserve this
Henry Jones
Modern Sonic fags you mean. Classic Sonic is perfectly safe from this shit. Glad Modern era Sonic is dead, so Mania can save the series, just like Crash/Spyro Remastered is doing
Kayden James

Nicholas Watson
Nintendo will one day buy Sega.
Caleb Ward
>one major car chase/battle. >I'm Sonic the ROAD-Hog!
Hunter Hughes
I think you underestimate just how devoted Sonic fans are to being one with every god awful piece of media that the franchise produces.
Grayson Phillips
Nintendo isn't Disney. They're perfectly capable of collaboration without buying out. HAL Laboratories and Gamefreak are examples.
Landon Watson
At this point, it couldn't happen sooner.
Oliver Martin
>Ominous Star Wars theme playing through a Sega Genesis soundchip
>James Marsden's cop character He WOULD be in this, wouldn't he
Ethan Brooks
I'm so excited
It's gonna be Last Airbender and Fant4stic all over again. Those movies united Yea Forums in hate.
Zachary Flores
This is going to be so terrible and I can't wait to see it.
Grayson Green
Sonic the Hedgehog fans like bad video games so who’s to say that they won’t like bad movies?
David Lee
Modern fans likely.
Charles Brooks
Detective Pikachu is going to be the kind of cute-dumb movie that you can enjoy for being a cute-dumb movie. I plan on seeing it simply for the novelty of Ryan Reynolds playing a talking Pikachu. But this? This is going to be a garbage fire, which also means it might be significantly more entertaining.
Michael Brown
This is amazing
Josiah Evans
>Gangsta's Paradise Isn't that a little down-tempo for Sonic? He should be speeding down to Rap God or some Busta Rhymes shit, not a song about how the hood is a trap and kills dreams.
Evan Morgan
Never before have I been so excited to see an obviously terrible movie
>Carrey’s scenes are incredibly over-the-top, and painfully unfunny So like everything Carrey in the last decade or so
Sebastian Lopez
Oh God yes. Please, please, please be a complete trainwreck. I want this to be so ridiculously bad that it's hilarious. There's nothing like seeing a shitty blockbuster being thrown up into theatres. It's like a kind of schadenfreude.
Brandon Jenkins
Imagine being a Sonic fan at all.
Xavier Parker
I don't. Dude made an average and super safe song that will pay his royalties till the fucking end of time cause radio stations won't stop playing it.
Grayson Hughes
>implying he took a chance making a gangsta nigga shit song that doesn't sound completely retarded when clean (unlike cube or dre)
I just don't see how any Sonic fan would like this, given how completely different it is from everything else except that's par for the course for Sonic, so I guarantee there will be people who unironically become fans of the movie.
Robert Lewis
>fortnite dance There's no such thing. All of Fortnite's dances were stolen from other sources.
Bad Religion's Supersonic would be a better choice.
Ryder Cook

We'll get to see the sonic girls in the sequels?
Evan Price
Does Chris or Sonichu have a cameo in the Sonic movie?
Mason Green
I unironically would love to watch that
Chase Baker
this is some Zack Snyder shit, what the fuckkkkkkk LOL
Andrew Evans
Are the people behind this movie competent and familiar with the highs and lows of the video games?
Josiah Howard
Will this be better than Sonichu, writing wise?
Jaxon Price
Will the trailer be worth the wait?
Camden Moore
Sega has arcade floor space that got turned into pachinkos years ago but thats it.
Sega pretty much died after the dreamcast, floundered around for a bit as a 3rd party, then got bought out to turn their arcades to gambling rooms and become sonic/yakuza whores.
Charles Butler
Aw fuck. Aw shit. I'm scared, bros. What kind of evil is about to be unleashed upon us?
Andrew Gomez
>Oh, and I should mention that we see Sonic speeding down the highway listening to the song “Gangsta’s Paradise”, because of course that happens in this movie. Holy fucking shit
Evening Star takes full control over it. At best maybe go farther with art direction like Rayman Legends did with more characters and new stages, and I think it can work well.
Eli Ward
>6 DAMN YOU GOTTA DO IT NOW, FOO.
Cooper Lee
should I wait for the new generation of VR headsets?
Wyatt Gomez
This movie will be the final nail of the Sonic fandom's coffin, isn't it?
What if Detective Pikachu flops and this is a success?
Daniel Howard
It survived 06, it'll survive a spinoff movie. Granted, the general public will snark it up, but Sega will probably just bury it the moment they get the chance.
Zachary Lopez
will I die alone in extreme pain and terrified?
Matthew Anderson

Mason Flores
will giant piloted robot fiction ever become popular in the usa?
Asher Murphy
If people are retarded enough to pay to watch it like the people who ironically watched the Death Note movie just for the laughs and gave it enough publicity to consider a sequel, then it could happen.
Tyler Rodriguez
Wow, damn.
Jose Anderson
Shit
Daniel Bailey
Hes so famous as a furry pioneer to many fan mediums. He generates attention by existing alongside his lame ass fans.
And worst thing is, Shadow is such a gay fag meme he gets the fan base called out for being a creepy shit compared to to other fandoms.
Henry Allen
What if the cameo is two people arguing over whether the hedgehog's arms were blue or beige after he zoomed past them? One of the guys could be based on Chris.
Classic Sonic is just as dead as Modern. SEGA is beating a dead horse because it's one of the only working IPs they have left. If Modern dies, so will Classic because the same modern developers, staff, and SEGA JP will bring Classic to 3D or 2.5d and ruin it forever.
Think Sonic Forces but Classic Sonic only. That's the inevitable.
>so will Classic because the same modern developers, staff, and SEGA JP will bring Classic to 3D or 2.5d and ruin it forever. It wouldn't be bad because even with Sonic 4 gameplay, without cringe like Shadow, Rouge, Infinite or the Bowser rippoff, it would still be far better presented to the media than the cringefest that was Shadow's game or Sonic 06 at the time.
Asher Wilson
How the hell have I never noticed that CwcVille is “Quickville”
Hunter Walker
The sheer autism blinded you
Jaxon Morales
Is a bad video game really worse than a bad movie?
Liam Lee
>Sonic 4 >removing Team Dark There's a middle ground and the answer to both fans is Sonic Advance. Plus the other classic characters have boring gameplay. Fight me.
>Cut Mean Bean Machine gag >Add in extremely obscure details like rings being able to warp people and the owl from the US lore bible. Now I'm just getting mixed signals from this movie.
Jack Cooper
What owl? The one from the OVA?
Adam Carter
No. The post I quoted showed that the American backstory stated that Sonic was raised by an owl. As far as I'm aware, that's the only thing to have that detail (unless Sonic the Comic used it, since it seems to follow that backstory more closely than stuff like SATAm or Archie did).
>pre-roll segment before the actual movie >it's a Sonic Sez bit PSAing about oral hygiene >Sonic literally using dental floss at one point >end of the skit has all the live action characters doing popular dances, with Sonic also doing the Flossing dance >the great cost you ask of?: >All of this is used to advertise Sonic in Fortnite for a limited time

Brayden King
I'm going to hate the wife character I can tell already.
Liam Martin
They have to do the basic gender juxtaposition with the woman being nice and caring while the guy does more serious shit, but of course fucks everything up.
Christian Carter
Is this going to be the worst film of 2019?
Thomas Campbell
Isn't The Secret Life of Pets 2 coming out this year?
Connor Sanders
>. Oh, and I should mention that we see Sonic speeding down the highway listening to the song “Gangsta’s Paradise”, because of course that happens in this movie. ??? Why that song? Why not the parody of it, Amish Paradise? It's at least a joke song, so we'd know it's supposed to be funny.
Did nobody learn anything from the Mario Movie on what not to do with a video game franchise and making it into a movie? Did nobody apart of this project think that it wasn't going to bomb and become a complete laughing stock? Don't they have test audiences? Don't they keep their ears to the ground on what people might think of this sort of thing? I don't get it. I don't understand you, Hollywood. This should be an obvious failure, but no, it's going to complete production, and it's going to go into theaters. Do they think they're going to make their money back because enough people will pay to see it bomb or something?
I mean, they could have gotten the Sonic Boom! staff, threw money at them, and told them to make a movie, and it'd probably be pretty fucking funny. Instead....this? I don't understand it.
Blame the relative success of the Transformers and TMNT live action movies. Paramount hit paydirt with those films and doesn't know how to make it work a second time.
Colton Jenkins
So how did they see the trailer where was it shown
Angel Ross
Dubs don't lie.
James James
God, why couldn't we have another season of Sonic Boom instead of this shit?
Adam Ross
Hope is the first step to disappointment.
Nolan Walker
From Sonic Mania to Sonic Forces. From Sonic Boom TV series to Sonic the Movie
Asher Thompson
>modern Jim Carrey >in a comedic role >his depressed as fuck post-modern phase >playing a gag character

Logan Young
>Ctrl+F >"leak" not found The Sonic in the CinemaCon footage resembles the one from the style guide leaks, according to some literal who entertainment reporter
Liam Walker
It's actually going to happen. The Mario movie from years back will actually be more enjoyable than the Sonic movie if these leaks are true.
Grayson Garcia
>sonic listening to rap im not even going to watch it for trainwreck purposes anymore, thats just fucking retarded and im not doing that to myself
Kayden Turner
is there any footage released?
Austin Cruz
This all unironically sounds great, looking forward to it.
Juan Bennett
Some Hip Pop songs would have kinda fit his character
Gangster Paradise doesn't since it's too angsty and somber and it's about Hood culture effecting people while Sonic is pretty much a White Skater Boy
Jonathan Jenkins
Yea but it'd be racist if they had, like, Shadow listen to it. Sonic is just giving himself the understanding of the black struggle.
Tyler Walker

>Shadow Honestly he is better off staying the fuck away from Hollywood, they would never understand his character
It's bad enough that Sonic Boom fucked up his portrayal, especially where he calls Sonic a "Disgrace to hedgehogs" DESPITE THE FACT THAT SHADOW IS NOT A FUCKING ACTUAL HEDGEHOG AND COULDN'T CARE LESS ABOUT THE HEDGEHOG RACE, HES NOT FUCKING VEGETA
Hunter Martin
Brap brap brap brap ba brap bra braaaaaaaap
Dylan Howard
>(so…I guess Sonic is an alien here?) ...wasn't that always the case?
Leo Brown
>Gangsta's Paradise >Not "Right Behind the Rain"
Grayson Taylor
Nah, they made it a point that there are aliens in Sonic's world and Shadow and the Babylon Rogues are the only characters in the series who are confirmed related to aliens.
Ryan Sanders
They'd propably ignore Team Dark alltogether and turn him into a sologuy.
John Perez
Early American Sonic media had the series take place on a planet named "Mobius" rather than Earth barring the comics which had the plot twist that Mobius was post-apocalyptic Earth. That was dropped around Sonic Adventure, only for Sonic X to use a similar idea with the show premise stemming from Sonic and Pals being warped to Earth. Izuka eventually revealed that the Sonic X take is now effectively canon and the series takes place across two worlds: Earth and Sonic's World. That's partially why Humans don't appear in Sonic Forces and vice-versa for Unleashed. tl;dr: Sega is a joke.
Wyatt Hernandez
Sega not only is a joke, but this contradicts established stuff from their more story focused era Sonic games.
Andrew Edwards
Iizuka wants Sonic to be more Nintendo lite, well its mostly Kishimoto pushing for it but Iizuka still supports it because of the backlash to 06
Post Sonic Colors sonic Franchise might as well be a Nintendo franchise, the two world retcon is meant to help further establish this
Liam Rogers
There’s a process to making Hollywood movies user, and it must be followed. Just allowing people proven to be able to make a decent TV show make a movie? Madness. How do you expect all the studio executives who don’t understand the property at all to personally profit from that?
Andrew Fisher
This is what happens when you're a gaming company by pachinko-toting old fogeys. Bollers' retcon (among other things) in the Archie Sonic comics was so bad that Flynn had to give it an cosmic enema.
Jose Ortiz
The proper execution is "I was spitting out formulas while you were still spitting up formula."
David Gonzalez
Boom Shadow is basically a parody of Shadow, from what I can tell.
Carter Thompson
He is, fully embracing the jokes people make about him being edgy.
Kayden Morris
This was pretty funny desu.
Andrew Gomez
>kid brother is an enormous sonicfag >he’ll probably go see this
Dominic Bailey
Maybe it's just me, but I don't get why this line is funny. I get Eggman's initial wordplay on formulas; that's alright.
But "I was breastfed"? What makes that such a funny zinger? It sounds like a lame comeback.
Owen Russell
This has got to be a social experiment to test the limits of sonic fans autism and just how much they can like it even though it's bad.
Landon Howard
>sonic floss >my sides
Cooper Davis
Yeezus
Luke Price
Will i get laid?
Adam Sanchez
Formula is breastmilk
Brayden Nguyen
That would fit in a childish battle rap, not movie dialogue.
Joseph Brown
>cop character, who clocks the blue speedster at around 700mph on his radar gun. just like sonic x. >we see Sonic speeding down the highway listening to the song “Gangsta’s Paradise”, because of course that happens in this movie. just like sonic x.
Adrian Davis
Good lord this is going to be a beautiful disaster to witness. Surreal as fuck though, it’s almost as if they intentionally made it this way on purpose given the reputation Sanic Hegehog has now.
The joke IS the lame comeback. It's meant to show the cop is a meathead where genuine wit is lost upon, so Eggman's outburst ends up falling with a thud at the face of an ignoramus.
Carson Morales
Remember when Knuckles skipping leg day was the worst thing that ever happened to the franchise?
im with these guys i might just take a load of acid and go watch this disaster in the theater. nothing like bad cheesy blockbusters and acid always a good time.
Jack Kelly
i want this too

>Dr. Robotnik – played by Jim Carrey in a mustache –
I don't care how bad this movie is, I've got to see it for this alone. holy fucking shit. Just say that out loud. Dr. Robotnik, played by Jim Carrey in a moustache.
Mania was made by the autistic sonic fandom zoomers, who consider including a reference to every fucking thing to be the height of art. It's why they decided to use every single one of the unused/removed graphics from the 16-bit games (hint: they were unused in those games because they looked like shit) - because it is a guaranteed way to woo the audience without putting any effort into it.
William Morgan
This. Even though Sonic Mania was good, I always thought that it never deserved the praise it got.
Colton Cox
Not gonna happen. Pokemon's always been more popular than Sonic by a considerable margin, and this is from a Sonicfag who doesn't give a shit about Pokemon.

Joshua Evans
Will I meet my waifu?
Ian Jackson
Imagine being this mad because fans got something they liked.
Carson Brown
A lot of the time jokes like this don't make it into the final cut of the movie. I think there was a dumb line or two in the Infinity Trailer that wasn't in the movie.
Samuel Phillips
At least they won't ruin Tails and Knuckles.
Sebastian Ward
Sonic Generations is constantly cheap on steam, add that with mod support you can have some fun with it. Sonic Mania is a fantastic game but huge part of your enjoyability will come from how much of a fan you are of the classic games, my dear user.
