Recently reairing in the UK on the POP channel

How many things did they completly rehash from Sonic SATAM?

You've got to appreicate Archie for remembering this when they referenced Manic and Sonia...

[DrSpengler]

Ugh.

It was the first time I'd ever seen Knuckles in animated-form, and they made him a total wuss (especially his voice). The cheesy fake rock music didn't help, either.

But no, I think the worst part of the show was that they got Jaleel White to do the voices for Sonic, Manic AND Sonia. Made the scenes between Sonia and Dingo really creepy.

This show made my stomach turn like I had eaten rancid meatballs.

[ZariusTwo]

It still surprises me that Sean Connery was a guest voice on this. DIC clearly could'nt afford s*it on that budget, but they managed to afford Connery?

PUNCH THE KEYS, FOR GOD'S SAKE!

[DrSpengler]

Yet the best James Bond Jr. could do was Roger Moore? :lol:

[Brodie]

This show made me think that the people who made it saw those Chronic The Hemphog shirts and thought it was a good idea.

I liked Sonic Underground when it first came out, but looking back on it now...not so much.

[DrSpengler]

I suppose Sonic Underground succeeded in its goal; reminding people that Sonic existed during a time when Sonic games were few and far between and he was still making that transition into the Adventure series.

Though it might've achieved that goal better had Sonic Underground been good.

Actually, I felt it was the only thing actually INTERRESTING about the whole thing. I got this stupid Sonic X-mas special for god knows what stupid reason (Worst X-mas special ever! aside from Star Wars and TMNT live action, of course) and I tried... very hard... tried to watch the episodes. It had the potnetial of being decent, but they turned it into multiple horrid things, including some sort of knock off of the Animaniacs (I'm convinced they are). The worst part are those GOD awful musical numbers. Are they trying to go back to 1970's style cartoons where all the characters had to be in some sort of bubble gum pop band? And the singing sounds like off key bad impersonations of the Animaniacs.

Shell, this series make the wonky, rubbery Adventures of Sonic seem less campy. Gotta admit, I did like the cheesy AOS Robotnik and the 2 dumbots, though.

Still, I would like to see that Knuckles one.

WIshj I got that Japanese Sonic movie... that any good?

[DrSpengler]

Sonic the Hedgehog the Movie is pretty badass.

It's actually two OVAs run side-by-side (so it's not really a "movie"). The animation is the best Sonic has ever had, at least the old school pre-SA Sonic.

The DVD is relatively cheap (seen it for under $10 bucks) and it comes with optional English or Japanese audio, so you can choose whichever one you want.

[Drtooth]

Yeah... I was gonna buy it at Best buy, since it was like 8 bucks, but I never got around to it, and I never saw it since early 2004. I'm gonna try to get it online, or special order it somewhere.
