Sonic the Hedgehog Live-Action/CGI Movie Targeting 2020 Release Date - Page 49

So this is interesting. Apparently a famous Youtuber in Spain will be the voice of Movie Sonic in Latin America. He posted a video bragging about being the voice of Movie Sonic. Even showing what looks like a page from a script.

Any and every time a movie has been made with an off-world IP and Hollywood has tried to cram it on to Earth, it's been a disaster. Masters of the Universe. Mario Bros Earth-2 weirdness. Any other movie ever. ....

A live action Sonic probably should be on Sonic's world with one live action actor - Jim Carey as the crazy Doctor guy and that's it.

Have a nice day.

Looks like the leaked design was legit. Someone just posted this image of a theater standee on Twitter:

Wow I thought the shoes were the 1 thing that would not change being Pumas. I guess Puma could still make his traditional shoes in real life. They might have anyway since they have the license.

*Papenbrook* · 10-27-2019, 06:21 AM

What's with all the leaks lately?! Good grief!

Anyway, I'm sensing a delay ...

*Coola Yagami* · 10-27-2019, 08:58 AM

Honestly see no issue with the redesign. Sonic is just too cartoonish a design to work in real life. Despite their efforts to make him realistic, the first design still looked like a weird cartoon character co-existing with real world people. If he's gonna look like a weird 'he's not really there' cartoon character in s live action movie no matter what design you give him, you might as well give it up and just go with something closer to his actual design.

*Wildcat* · 10-27-2019, 11:41 PM

I wonder if there was some kind of small rewrite because in the first trailer we see he wore out a bunch of shoes and stuck with the red Pumas.

Now giving him his signature shoes that look custom made that would negate why he had the other ones.

Puma could have agreed to the change or just said stick our logo on and we’ll make them real but still how does he get them in the movie?

Really? Because I could've SWORE Alvin and the Chipmunks was some kind of CIA experiment to see if the government could get entire audiences to commit suicide en masse. True ****.

"Oh, AWESOME! They're doing a Sonic the Hedgehog movie and it doesn't look or feel like Sonic AT ALL! I can't wait to see it!"

Why would anyone do that?

I think the idea with something like a Sonic the Hedgehog movie is not to make a movie that will make hardcore Sonic the Hedgehog video game fans go, "WOW! That's 100% video game accurate to those Sega Genesis games 30 years ago!" but to take the idea of Sonic the Hedgehog, look at what the core appeal of the character was at a particular point in time, and try to grow a movie around that. In this case, in live action (for whatever reason) so some considerations need to happen design-wise to make that look believable. Because there isn't like millions of Sonic fans under the age of 30 that would be lining up to see a 100% Sega Genesis accurate Sonic movie. There just isn't. Nor would such a thing necessarily sell itself. Maybe if it came out in 1993. Maybe.

Which isn't to say I don't 100% expect it to be a flat, unfunny and soulless affair... because I do. I'm just saying I get it.

Here's what Tom Holkenborg had to say about this movie:

In summary:

Sure, Tom. Sure ...

EDIT: YET ANOTHER DESIGN HAS BEEN LEAKED!

Spoiler:

*TigerClaw* · 11-05-2019, 08:42 PM

Another possible leak of the redesign for Movie Sonic.

How many MORE designs must they leak?!

*TigerClaw* · 11-05-2019, 09:54 PM

Here's a wider version of the image. You can see Eggman in the background.

This definitely looks better. I'm still waiting on a trailer to see how it looks in motion.

Me too. People think its this week. But i highly doubt it. Because its not showing on that Alberta site as Classified. Only a trailer for this new Spongebob Squarepants movie.

*Wildcat* · 11-05-2019, 11:55 PM

I totally guessed the time frame of promotion. Wasn’t hard to figure out but if not this week trailer is definitely next and will probably play with Frozen 2.

I will admit even though I defended the first design (I still think it’s kinda cool) his redesign is perfect. He’s spot-on but not too cartoonish like some suggested having noodle limbs. He has shape and definition like an actual physical being.

I’m even thinking his arms should have always been blue. Does he have fur-less arms? In the context of being an animal limbs are typically the same.

Look at Garfield, Bugs Bunny, Felix the cat, Mickey Mouse and even Sonic’s friends. Only the face and/or stomach area are different colors to give them characteristics/tone.

It was this kind of thinking that gave rise to Hitler.

New design is serviceable, but not that special imo.

Say what you want about how horrific the 1st trailer's design was, but that Sonic was anything but forgettable.

Is that supposed to be some kind of compliment? Because people don't usually forget trauma, and that's not exactly something to be proud of.
