Sonic Movie Thread - From a Disastrous Teaser/Trailer to Not That Bad a Movie; Got a Sequel

[Vyse Inglebard]

I was genuinely sad we didn't get any Crush40 in the 2nd movie. I was honestly expecting to hear a little of the instrumental of 'City Escape' during the snowboarding part.

Sonic Adventure is sometimes pointed at as the inception of cock rock in the Sonic series but Sega really knew how and when to apply the brass in this game with Eggman's theme, Hot Shelter, Casinopolis, the Chao theme, Red Mountain and probably another bunch that I don't remember off the top of my head. There was so much more to the music in this game than Crush 40

Dude, that song comes out of nowhere but man is it da shit.

Sucks how underrated it is tho, would personally be happier if the song was actually in the snowboard movie scene, probably even more than Ice Cap Zone but that's just me tbh.

If City Escape was going to be anywhere in these movies it should have been at the end of the first movie during the chase

I watched both movies on Paramount Plus.

I didn't hate them. Generally speaking, they are entertaining kids movies with enough references to keep the fans happy. No damage was done, and if you're a kid or a fan, you'll enjoy it.

Idris Elba as Knuckles was probably my favorite part to come out of the films.

I'm kind of surprised Sega didn't turn their new Sonic Frontiers game into a movie tie-in or changed Sonic's design for it. I thought they would've wanted to cash in on that shit. Good on them for sticking to their vision and not giving Sonic human step-parents. Too bad the game looks pretty meh.

Apparently he’s not actually Peter Pan, just a character called Dirty Dan who dressed like him.

Looks like he is Pan, and to add further insult to injury, they also made his life a parody of his real life voice actor from the Disney film. Pretty damn tasteless if you ask me.

Barrie and Driscoll's remains must be rolling in their graves.

Well, things didn't work out too well when they made his arms blue.

Would've been funny to see another spergout from furries though, that much would've been nice at least.

Spoiler: talking about Shadow

Something I find interesting about Shadow’s movie design is how he seems to be lacking his inhibitor rings.

He very much could still have them as it’s hard to tell or not but I like the idea of Robotnik or Agent Stone putting them on him after they witnesses his power or something.

Mainly because it would be cool if we seen abit of that power but got to see the full thing near the end of the film maybe after Robotnik is out in danger, always liked the relationship between the two with Shadow having having strong level of respect for him because of his blood ties to his creator.

Don’t think Shadow will become a good guy in the end because we’ve already done that with Knuckles but maybe rather being slightly swayed into being one or dying fighting against a bigger threat like Chaos or Metal Sonic.

Choose those two because they both could show a level of pain and chaos that ties back into Shadow.

That’s not to say Biolizard couldn’t work, it’s a unstable mess that’s driven on revenge and following orders but I personally would really like to see how Shadow would react to Chaos’ similar pain and loss and Metal’s lack of identity with the desire to become the real Sonic so bad that he becomes the very antithesis.

One so blinded by pain that it would inadvertently kill those similar to the ones it lost and one so driven by purpose that it would end up losing it just to reach it.

Also with the inhibitor rings I feel like those were added in the game’s canon to stop Shadow from becoming like the Biolizard so I don’t know how that would work out if he didn’t have them at the start, maybe could be hinting at him being unfinished and therefore not really the ultimate life form.

Anyways that’s enough of me spitballing ideas, really hope if Chaos or Metal don’t show up in the film then either of them will be the baddie for the Knuckles series, if only because they have pretty great villain stories.

Too bad they didn't save Knuckles for the third movie. They could have called it Sonic 3 & Knuckles.

The Japanese dub is coming out in two months, and apparently a Hololive Vtuber named Korone is going to be a voice in it. Most likely a background character, but hey. Random Sonic news.

I know Sonic isn't very popular in Japan, but does Sega really need to use stupid anime-girl streaming bullshit to promote it?

Probably not, but every little helps. Would be cool if it manages to pass 500mil overall.

So far so good.

Chances are that at least it will walk away 450mil since it seems to be doing better in the East. Its doing pretty damn good in S. Korea and Australia too.

Resident Evil fans, Tomb Raider fans, Mortal Kombat fans and Pokeshills on suicide watch right now. We did it, Sonichads!

Without Sonic, this forum probably wouldn't even exist. Plus autism.

 

[Banana Hammock]

Holy shit, I just realized something. They announced that the third movie got greenlit and that Knuckles would be getting his own show at the same time. They literally announced the release of both Sonic 3 & Knuckles.

She does stuff with the official brand every now and then so it's not surprising at all.
