According to Variety a sequel to the Sonic Movie is in the works at Paramount. This is great news since I been waiting for this for some time.

What are the odds of having someone talk about how the film is going to be bad during the entire existence of said film's production?

Was my most wanted movie...now my most wanted sequel. Not a surprise but glad to see it confirmed.

I just saw it again the other day when my Blu-ray came in. It’s better a second time. I think I was too excited before. It seemed to fly by.

Tails is confirmed and probably safe to assume Knuckles. Robotnik must meet someone along the way.

Biggest thing I want is Super Sonic. Show the special zone on his map. Some have suggested they might need to rework the chaos emeralds since requiring 7 could be complicated in a movie. Perfectly fine.

I mean, if they were smart they could do a whole trilogy about collecting all seven Chaos Emeralds. That's what I'd do. Maybe they could combine elements of Sonic CD and Sonic Adventure, and make one or two of the Emeralds really hard to get, to the point where he has to travel through time to get them. They could do a whole movie about that sh*t by itself. If you have one main plotline - the Seven Emeralds - and you plan it out properly, you can incorporate elements from a bunch of different sources and get three solid movies worth of material, easily. You can get a bunch of different characters and elements in there while keeping everything geared in line with one main "basic" story. Chaos would make a great villain for that kind of arc, if you think about it. They could easily do a "remixed" version of Sonic Adventure over three movies if they did it right. That'd be awesome. Screw it, they already got Sonic messing around with humans, might as well lean into the game that got the most out of that, and also had the best villain of the 3D Sonic games.

See, they should let me book this sh*t. That's what I'd do. I don't chirp about it but I know my Sonic horseshit. :trazz:

Ya that sounds pretty cool. The emeralds themselves already have the ability to time travel don’t they? I feel like that should be one of the reasons Robotnik wants them. Unless they say you don’t need all of them and certain colored ones can give certain abilities.

I was thinking something like the special zone, being a mysterious void, required special access before a ring could take you there. A place that required moving fast or it would zap you out. It could be a mix of the tilting grid, half pipe and spheres.

Like its accessible to anyone who knows the secret to opening it but everyone who’s tried has failed to defeat its obstacles. Obviously Sonic would be the one going in. That’s still only 3.

I’ll have to think it over some more.

Hogwash. Sonic Hogwash:)

Finally some good news.

Great.

I wonder if this one will have the same production issues as the first movie.

That doesn't flout the shittiness of the chickenshit swear filter.

I'm goin' for BINGO! :lol::lol::lol:

And it's begun

Maybe Robotnik can build himself an Eggfinity Gauntlet.

Hope the next movie has higher stakes than the first one. And hopefully spend less time on Earth.

The first one was much better than I thought it could have been, but these are two pretty valid opportunities, I'd say.

Hopefully the sequel deals with the Chaos Emeralds. They are like the Infinity Stones in the Sonic universe. Also Knuckles is the sole guardian of the Master Emerald on Angel Island.

And Sonic is blue.

As long as they don't go completely overboard and keep the more fantastical elements somewhat grounded in reality, I'm all for it. I think a big part of the success of the Sonic movie was that it downplayed the inherent ridiculousness of the franchise extremely well.

I think you'll start losing people when you introduce characters like Shadow and Silver, or tack on things that aren't justified/explained well enough in-universe. Basically, good writing, which is a tall order for the majority of movies these days.

It's currently scheduled to arrive on ^*April 8^th, 2022.

^*It'll probably be subject(ed) to change, though.

They realize this, which is why it wasn't an animated movie and instead live action and taking place on Earth. Sequel will likely have Tails as a main character along Sonic and I'm sure we'll see more of Sonic's world but only briefly since the movie will take place mostly on Earth. Now I'm sure if they keep making movies by Movie 4 we will see Shadow and others and it'll be aimed mainly at little kids by then so who cares.

Two updates:

Storyboard artist, Fill Marc, has announced that he will be storyboarding the sequel.

Knuckles may be set to appear in said sequel.

I don't know.

Either way, I think that the sequel will bomb.
