BLUUUUURG, cgi/live action.
Sonic already doesn't have an overall plot for any of his media. Seriously, like each one of his everything takes place in its own universe.
I still don't get why Sonic has a fanbase, but then again I wasn't a fan of his original games either. The only thing I can see that really makes him stand out is the art style, nothing else looks like sonic. Probably the reason people come up with so many fan characters set in that style.

I still can't believe Sony is entertaining the idea of a Sonic movie. After Pixels and GmC: Ghostbuster May Cry you'd think they would try to be a littler smarter with the films their funding. This is just way past dumb.
I'll see myself out.

Well, it's a good thing I never cared about a Sonic Movie, because this sounds disastrous.

Family Movie That Mixes CGI with Live Action And Is Based On A Video Game: how much acid did the studio execs have to do in order to greenlight this?

I don't give a mouse fart in a hurricane about a Sonic movie, one way or another (and didn't Sony learn anything after Ratchet & Clank...?), but I'm not liking the sound of creative disconnect on Deadpool 2. I know the word is that Reynolds provided a significant amount of the impetus behind the thing getting made in the first place, but that doesn't make his being at cross purposes with his director a good sign.
Okay, would someone mind telling me what was actually wrong with Pixels? Outside of Josh Gad's character, I quite liked the film.ShakerSilver said:
A movie by Sony Pictures based on a video game franchise (one with a mascot that's the laughingstock of the internet, no less) that's both CGI-animated AND live action?!
I'm almost looking forward to it now, just to see how badly they fuck this up.

Jesus, how bad were the creative differences that Tim thought THIS movie idea was better? Holy crap, what's more terrifying the direction Deadpool 2 seems to be aimed at, or this coming train disaster?
So quick to rage or dislike the idea. I believe this can work. After all, perhaps he can make Shadow likable to anew audience? =D
It was a Adam Sandler film. I mean, thats why people say its bad. I too liked it. Was no masterpiece of film, but it felt like Sandler actually tried something interesting, if a bit silly.Transdude1996 said:
Though I dont want a Sonic film that is actually Sonic as a video game character. This might have worked in the 90's with Sonic and his cast ending up in the real world with some kid...
...it hit me I basically described Sonic X.
As a former member of the Sonic fandom from a time before said fandom was filled with nothing but artists on Deviant Art and FurAffinity drawing recolors that screw each others brains out, there is still some part of me that hopes the franchise can be redeemed. It is quite sad when the best Sonic can do now is "this one doesn't suck!"
I have a suspicion that this movie won't fall into that category, or any better category for that matter. Live-action combined with CG? I'm sorry, but the Sonic characters are just way too colorful for something like that.
