That's something I've been wondering for about a decade now as well.

It's kinda strange when you think about it. Sonic was the only video game character who could rival Mario in popularity and notoriety at some point in time, and a lot of people who grew up gaming in the early-mid 90s still prefer the classic Sonic games to Mario games in general. Yet, nowadays Sonic is basically viewed as a former shell of himself and as kind of a joke alongside having a fanbase with a lot of furries and other weirdos. Granted most properties have lousy fandoms, but Sonic is among the ones with infamous fanbases. No one really talks smack about, let's say, the Mario or Zelda fandoms much, do they?

There's several factors to why Sonic fell so much since 1995 or so, but Sonic's fandom doesn't help the image of the property much either.

Probably his friends. Their existence gives them reasons to create their own fan-fictions with them.

I always thought Sonic was cute (in a non-romantic way), but I never wanted to MARRY him.

Anyways, I hope that this film flops (fails). I need a good Christmas present.

At most stores you can obtain a modest-sized George Foreman Grill for under $30.

*Papenbrook* · 02-27-2019, 04:41 PM

Aw, look! Ben Schwartz still thinks that this film will be as good as the upcoming Detective Pikachu flick.

Nice try, bro! It ain't happenin'!

Spoiler:

Apparently, Dj2 Entertainment will assist with the film's production.

Guess what image they used to promote this film?

Yep, there will be no legs for this tiny heinie.

Sonic's Movie Design for the Sonic The Hedgehog movie might have been leaked.

*Papenbrook* · 03-04-2019, 05:07 PM

Oh dear GOD ...

*snake* · 03-04-2019, 05:08 PM

It looks so f*cking weird. Like they couldn’t figure out whether or not they wanted to comit to realistic or cartoon aesthetics. This thing is going to be interacting with real people in the film.

Nah, but seriously, there's not much wrong with this. I feared it would look way more terrifying. It's still a little creepy that he seems to have white hands rather than gloves though.

Word.

It's actually not as bad as I feared, but yeah. And the hands are weird, and why are his arms even blue? I know it's already been done in some cartoon show, but seriously, his arms aren't blue.

Could be worse, could be better. Still getting an "Alvin and the Chipmunks" vibe.

*TurtleTitan97* · 03-04-2019, 05:43 PM

Bwhahahaha!!! It's even worse than we imagined!

*TigerClaw* · 03-04-2019, 06:09 PM

Here's a description of Sonic's personality. Note that there's a typo on there.

~~Leo656~~ · 03-04-2019, 06:12 PM

If one of his fans from Tumblr wrote it, then no, it's not a typo.

*TigerClaw* · 03-04-2019, 06:34 PM

Another image has been revealed. Here's a full body shot of Sonic.

*oldmanwinters* · 03-04-2019, 07:14 PM

Lol, it's spot on!

**Jester** · 03-04-2019, 07:21 PM

I wonder how many Sonic fans are gonna burn their Nikes.

*RaphaelinSTL* · 03-04-2019, 07:34 PM

hahahahahahahaha. Oh boy, here we go.

I actually don't hate it. I wonder how it'll look in motion though. I don't mind the eyes as much, but I guess I am a little weirded out that they switched the white gloves to be fur.

Still ... this is a million times better than what Michael Bay's team came up with for those horrible first two Platinum Dunes TMNT films.

Nah, it's on par. They look like they could crossover in the MCU. The Molested Cinematic Universe.

~~Leo656~~ · 03-04-2019, 07:42 PM

Were gloves REALLY that hard to animate in CGI? That's the only thing I can think of for such an odd choice. Like how every time they do a Superman movie, they swear they can't put the yellow S Shield on his cape anymore because "It's impossible to animate properly in CGI" (to which I reply, "It's a CAPE, how hard can your job possibly be you pissant", but that's a whole other story).

I mean, if they can go to the trouble of animating every single spine on his body, they can give homeboy some gloves.
