BlueCoreStudio's Sonic The Hedgehog(Fan Film)
 

Sonic fans, rejoice!!! Everyone's favorite Speed Demon is getting the Live Action/ CGI treatment by none other than Eddie Lebron, the man who created the hit fan film, Mega Man. But that's not all! The voice of Sonic has been announced, and it's none other than... JALEEL WHITE!!! That's right, the guy who voiced Sonic in the hit 90's cartoon Sonic SATAM returns to voice in the new film! :D The film is suppose to be based off the early STH games and have a dark tone similar to SATAM.

Here's an early teaser trailer, which features a more detailed Sonic compared to the one in the games:

I will continue to post updates on the film. Here's the facebook page for the film: http://www.facebook.com/sonicfanfilm

I've been following this on and off for a while now. I'm hoping that it turns out to be decent enough.

Alright some news! Acording to Lebron, the film is set to premire this May. A new and final trailer is going to appear in April.

I am absolutely shocked Jaleel is involved! He sounds so much different than he did in the 90s!

Surprisingly, this is the first I've heard of this!

When I first saw the Sonic model in the early trailer, I thought he had a bit of the "Sonic the Werehog" resemblance. I'm glad they made him bluer. I'm still gonna have to get used to the "fuzzy"-ness though.

Knowing Sega these days, I'm surprised they haven't already tried to shut this down though. Anybody remember the fiasco that followed the release of the Streets of Rage (SorR) fan-project?

It sounds vaguely familiar. Care to fill me in?

To cut a long story short, someone made a free "requel" (remake and a sequel of sorts) of Streets of Rage, it could be ported over and played on things like PC and X-Box. Sega caight wind of it's momentum and banhammered it.

Interesting.....

I just thought I would share some details with you guys:

1) The movie will act as a prequel to the first STH video game from 1991.
2) Sonic's allies like Tails and Knuckles will not appear in the film since this takes place before Sonic meets them.
3)Eggman's robots from the early Sonic games will return as CGI characters.
4) The millitary group G.U.N. will be in the film also.
5) The film will have CGI backgrounds that will also include Green Hill Zone.
6) The Egg Carrier will also be in the film.

And no money was ever involved in the SorR project, as far as I know.

There is clearly some money changing hands on this Sonic film project, even if it is only in the form of "donations."

I wish em all the best though, in spite of the potential legal spin dash from Sega.

Just thought I share some concept art from the movie: http://sonicfanfilm.com/blog/?more=10

Somebody tell the band to cue up "I am the Eggman!"



The dialogue in this trailer is pretty terrible, IMO, but the voice acting is pretty good!

Here's a two part interview with the director,Eddie Lebron:

Also, here's a post-production Blog for the film that was released last month,http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ox5ul...GyECOsbJfAPGV1

Check out this way past cool poster for the film:

I am looking forward to this! So far, it looks really promising!:tgrin:

Since this is a prequel, I hope they refer to aspects of the Fleetway comics origin (Robotniks' dialouge referring to himself as once being a "kinder man" could be a hint we'll see him as Kintobor), but yeah, it does seem like there going in a fresh direction with it.

I didn't care for their Megaman film, but I still gave it a shot. I'll humor this too. Seems more promising, at least.

Never really gave much thought to that before, but that's an interesting observation. I like the Fleetway comics, so I wouldn't be against them using that material.

If I recall, that was actually the "official" origin story provided by Sega of America in 1991. There was a 16-page comic that appeared in gaming magazines that detailed Sonic's evolution as brown fully-quilled assistant of Dr. Kintobar to the righteously stylish blue blur of the first Genesis game.

Perhaps Fleetway just adapted the story into their continuity?

Very interesting. I wouldn't mind if a flashback of this event was in the movie. Anyway, here's this other poster I found for the movie:

"Kintobor" as a name was the West's original name for Robotnik.

Fleetway: Ovi Kintobor, benevolent scientist.

Sonic AM cartoon/ Archie: Warlord Julian Kintobor of the House of Ivo.

The depictions differed greatly, but the name was kept.
