Sonic the Hedgehog Live-Action/CGI Movie Targeting 2018 Release Date

If done correctly this could be amazing.

Hrmmm sounds terrible. But good luck either way.

What an awful idea...

or the best thing ever.

Satam or no money

Terrible idea to mix live action into this.

Michael Bay should direct.

Think i'll skip this movie.

I thought you said Satan or no money. :tlol:

The only way they can make a live action/CGI movie of Sonic the Hedgehog, is if they adapt the stories from Sonic Adventures 1 and 2, those games had Sonic and his friends being on Earth with the humans.

This is gonna blow so hard.

I honestly don't want to play the Devil's advocate considering the lackluster reputation of Sonic, but after Wreck-It Ralph I say Sonic might have a shot if not prominent. His prominence may be among the worst and I still feel he deserves a break; despite this, we do have a Ratchet and Clank movie this year, no?

I'd say Sonic might have a shot, but overall: meh.

My thoughts are the same, although I doubt it'll ever happen. There was a fan-made CGI Sonic movie that came out some years ago that also had human actors in it, and I think that movie pretty much bombed.

Also I'm curious to see who gets to voice Bunnie Rabbot should it become a SatAM based movie since the original VA that voiced the character passed away.

Mad dumb. They should just go the Pixar/Dreamworks route with this. That, I would watch.

I'm a sucker for Sonic the Hedgehog.

The last "live-action" attempt didn't go so well though... even with Jaleel White trying to recapture his voice-acting magic.

Live-Action/CGI equals Sonic travels to "our world" to save some budget.

It's gonna be Masters of the Universe, Beastmaster II and The Smurfs redux.

I will not judge it until I see a preview or at least several screenshots.

This was really good for a fan video.

That aside, I could maybe see a live action/CGI thing working....if they did stick with elements from the Adventure games.

Maybe it could be real live action scenery and locations to be realistic and pretty, with cg characters mixed together. example:

Is Roger Craig Smith still going to voice Sonic?

Love Sonic so him finally getting a legitimate movie in live-action is exactly what I wanted. I don't care what people think about live-action/cgi hybrids.

Extremely unlikely they'd adapt SatAM/Comics but the Sonic universe already has enough characters in the video games alone to make a movie out of.

I'm assuming Sonic and friends will visit earth. Highly doubt they'd show Mobius or a "home" planet unless it's briefly through space or a flashback.

Lol at people comparing that fan project to this. It wasn't even an hour. It was ok for a concept but it wasn't supposed to be a serious movie.

Big Sonic fan, so yeah I'm game! :tlove:

Sonic the Hedgehog and Chris Pine reluctantly team up to stop either Kevin James or Mike Myers from taking over New York City or San Francisco. Cue Who Let the Dogs Out... Summer 2018.

This is going to be the next Alvin and the Chipmunks.

I really digged Sonic Unleashed's style as it had humans but in a Pixar/Dreamworks quality. If "The Night of the Werehog" short was anything to by, an all CGI movie would have been the best way to go. Ratchet and Clank should have 'showned them the light' of how to do a movie based on a beloved property.


Some would think it is not so much the format that would ruin the film but the story. Well as long as the visuals don’t suck. Even if Sonic is CGI, he still needs to run around a world that is full of landscapes and civilization just like always. Whether it’s CGI, if there are humans in his world, they will be there physically or animated just like all the buildings and clouds. Sonic will be animated like always. As baffling as the idea is, Sega is full of them.

And I really do NOT want another attempt at adapting the Sonic Adventure games. If Sonic X was enough to go by, I'd rather have a completely new storyline rather than 'rinse and repeat' a story that we already know. I can already enjoy it in from their original source material.

Folks, I have an important question to ask:

You call that an important question? :roll:

You're gonna be condemned now i dare say because apparently you have to have the same opinion as other people :lol:

Ha, yup but I don't care.

People complain about these kinds of movies but the big difference is Sonic is based on action. Most other live-action/cgi cartoon movies were based on being cute or funny.

Alvin and Chipmunks
Smurfs
Scooby Doo
Garfield
Yogi Bear

Which I don't even hate. I haven't seen all of them and I liked the first 2 chipmunks but they were what they were meant to be...cute and lighthearted. I know people will bring up Tmnt and regardless of personal opinion they are still action movies so even that stayed in its element.

Oh my....
This is going to make fans sad.

This would've been huge news... in 1993.

I mean the technology wasn't there yet and now it is, but... that's the last time anyone at all would have cared about this. And I could reasonably be called a big Sonic fan. I just don't think it matters anymore.

That's what I read.




And I have no real opinion on this. Sonic is alright, I'm not a huge fan.

Deadpool Director Tim Miller will be the executive producer for Sony's Sonic The Hedgehog Movie.

I think it makes sense, since he was from Blur Studio, Which produced a lot of high quality CGI for video games, the movie will be a Live Action/CGI hybrid.

You had me at "Tim Miller".

This is just.... why? Just make a cool high budget animated movie. Why does everyone insist on making everything live action anymore? Chipmunks, Surfside, now Sonic. Just stop.

Because Sega...:trolleye:

I agree, they should have made this fully animated.

Err, sounds like a bad idea. Reminds me of Sonic X.

Live action? Like Sonic Adventure?

I'm turned on right now.

I wouldn't mind if the movie is an adaption of Sonic Adventure 1 and 2, Those two games had Sonic and his friends on Earth.

The Sonic X cartoon even adapted those two games.
