Finished the show. it went from meh to ok (barely). the last two episodes kinda saved it. again, this is not Knuckles show, its Wades and he only became tolerable after episode 4. the humour was hit and miss (more misses to be honest) and some of the jokes overstayed their welcome way to fucking long. wades sister is a psychopath and i expected her being part of the FBI was just a huge larp but it was not? she did nothing in the serise other then being annoying (i would say shes even worse then wade). The mom is ok though. The jew episode was just really fucking weird. the villains were barely there and did almost nothing. I wanted to know more about the gun-dealer and his connections with GUN and Robotnik but that went nowhere. Wades dad was just a douche. thats it.

Honestly, its like they saw how everyone liked the human characters in the second movie and though they could get away with them being front and center. i wanted more Knuckles damn it. hell, I wanted to know more about the echidna tribe and the owl tribe on who started killing who first and the master emerald but we got none of that. Name drooping the flames of disaster was also weird if you know the hole lore about that.

4/10. Didint feel like a waste of time but was not very good either. im really hoping they steeping up in the movie.

They could’ve went with the meme and called it “Wade & Knuckles.” Featuring Dante, from the Devil May Cry series

Saw a commercial (several times) on normie TV and you don't even SEE Wade in any of them save maybe the closing shot of the commercial (I think, I haven't watched it yet and I forget who Wade is). I can see some feeling lied to by the ads.
 
One of the strangest parts of the show was that Knuckles seemed to enjoy his time in Reno. I felt that was a bit off-character, I know game Knuckles and movie Knuckles aren't the same but if you listen to some of the idle dialogue in the game you can hear about how much he dislikes casino areas.

Don't think I've ever heard these clips before. Not surprised that the writers haven't either, it seems pretty obscure.

The writers for the third movie are the same as the first two, I wouldn't worry too much.
 
Last i checked, he's the butt of every joke.
That was true for a long time after 06, but I feel like it's mellowed out since then. Granted, I haven't gone around and polled other Sonic fans on this since it would be similar to sticking your hand into a hornet's nest, but still. I'm not sure Silver will be next, since Iblis isn't from the future in the movie universe. Maybe Amy or Rouge. As for other characters, the Chaotix technically exist already since they were in the Pre-quill comic for the second film.

I'm curious about how this will go with the characters. Sega has a history of being really fucking weird when it comes to spin off things like this. Out of the main classic cast we are missing Amy and Metal Sonic. I wouldn't be surprised if those two are obligated to appear before anyone else.

Shadow is a cash cow in his own right, I can only assume he will be getting more. It could be his own mini-series, own movie, whatever. Rouge seems like the most likely choice to join his cast. She was in the new cartoon as a main character, and she already has a history with Shadow from the older games. Omega also feels likely. He's been mentioned and appeared in some recent stuff. I'm also wondering if animating a robot would be cheaper, that could be a big factor.

Another thing is that Sonic Heroes is getting a remake. Seeing the Chatoix in that comic up there is making me wonder if Sega will try to some kind of tie in thing. We have Team Sonic ready to go in the movies, Shadow is coming up, they might focus on putting in those 12 characters (13 for Metal Sonic) first as a sort of promotion.
 
I always assumed the plot of the 3rd movie was going to be Robotnik teaming up with Shadow, Shadow going rogue halfway through, then Robotnik building Metal Sonic as a replacement ("I built my own copy of Sonic! I don't need you anymore!") which the cast then have to work together to defeat.

Sounds like from the script leak and tone that they're going for a more direct Sonic Adventure 2 adaptation though, and Amy's a pretty big deal in that, so maybe she'll show up in this one.

Assuming they somehow find a way to write Amy out of Sonic 3, I can see your idea of Robotnik building his "own" Sonic to finally have the perfect enforcer alongside kidnapping Amy in an adaption of CD to be a hypothetical Sonic 4. It also has the bonus of scaling back from the grandiose plot of Sonic Adventure 2 while still being an exciting adventure in its own right.

Heck.... maybe have it take place in the world Sonic and friends came from so you can CG up all the psychedelic backgrounds of CD as a visual change of pace, to keep the series looking literally fresh, as well as explaining where Robotnik captured Amy in the first place.

>Cramming all that into a quick half-hour episode and on a TV budget, though, is another matter entirely. Plus, it’s also the installment that features the least on-screen time for Knuckles himself, and Taccone acknowledges that “the episode was primarily designed to sort of be able to save some money on the CG.” But, when asked if that aspect of the episode intimidated him, Taccone says he was drawn in by the challenge.

>“Oh no, that's how it was billed to me,” he says. “It was actually quite funny because it was the one where I was told, ‘You are doing the episode that is where we need to save a buck.’ But giving it those margins and being like, ‘We're going to figure all this stuff out creatively,’ it just made it all that much more fun, honestly.”

>both movies combined made almost a billion dollars back at the box office
>"we need to skimp on the CG for the TV show lol"

Hollywood does not make sense.

They did a good job, at least. The part where Knuckles' dad randomly turns into a puppet and dies is exactly the kind of weird humour that makes it endearing for me.
