ARE YOU ACTUALLY GIVING POSITIVE CREDIT TO SONIC 06!?

But people just want to bash Sonic Fans as if we aren't the primary victims.

Well its just that, there are more weirdos lurking in the Sonic fandom then others fandoms. The same kind of weirdos that ruined Zootopia and My Little Pony Friendship is Magic.

And what do Sonic, MLP, and Zootopia have in common?

How was MLP or Zootopia ruined? Cause I'm not really seeing that.

Oh...your innocent soul you.

If you're talking about the fact there is porn of them, then there is nothing you can like since there is porn of everything. So, I would assume you realize that and your point is something else.

I think Sonic's design would be fine, had they just made his eyes bigger. Were they bigger he'd be a lot closer to his design from the games, which ultimately is the reason anyone bother with the movie adaptation.

I am reminded of the CGI Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie, were had their noses been more in line with the cartoon they'd look okay.

So someone has a big collection of something that makes him happy, so what?

I've got a friend who suffers from Clinical Depression and MLP:FIM helps get him out of the phase of thinking nothing is worth doing.

Really? A couple of self-absorbed fans with too much time on tumblr? That's waht bothers you? How about this? Ignore them. They are a vocal minority. Don't let them ruin the thing you like by not giving them any attention or acknowledging them.

That is only a short term solution for your friend with Clinical Depression though. He can only like MLP for so long.

But then again I am not too familiar with that mental issue so I don't know.

If someone found a long term solution for clinical depression then it wouldn't be around anymore.

What in the absolute, utter, blue blazes were they thinking? Whose idea was this? Who concocted that godawful design, was it somebody who has literally never seen Sonic before and just drew the best description somebody could give them in 30 seconds over a crackly walkie-talkie? It's "deliberate parody" levels of bad. It's Mega Man Box Art level bad. In the words of one Twitter commenter, it's actually impressive how they managed to make Sonic look like crappy CG and simultaneously like just a guy in a suit.

The trailer? Well, that dashes any hopes that nightmare-Sonic will at least be in a fantasy setting with a consistent aesthetic. Of course, it's set in a present day setting. Of course the US Army is a plot element (is Michael Bay directing this, or something?) And Dr Robotnik - Jim Carrey?! At least we can't accuse this film of not capitalising on the hottest, most popular, up and coming acting talent. In the words of Homer Simpson, that was sarcastic, by the way.

This is a god damn car wreck. Sonic has just had his Bob Hoskins moment, but this time they don't even have the excuse that it's the 90s and they don't know any better. Right now I'm still 10% convinced this is an elaborate April Fools joke, and 80% suspect that somebody is deliberately engineering the hugest flop ever to manipulate stock prices, like in The Producers. The remaining 10% is the slim chance this is a genuine attempt by a well-intentioned team to create what they believe will be a well received Sonic film, in which case God help us all.

Jim Carrey?s acting bothers me. The "nobody cares!" joke is more a Jim Carrey past characters' attitude (or internet troll's) than Dr. Eggman's. "I don't care!" would had been better, because it reinforces the character's self-centered sense of superiority (just like when he talks down the Mayor with technical words in fast manner). It's frustrating how in a single sketch he ping-pongs between Dr. Smarter-than-you and childish jerk with authority.

To be fair, that's nothing new for Robotnik/Eggman depending on which version you're talking about. The Robotnik from the first Sonic cartoon (the one with just Sonic and Tails as protagonists) gave him childish moments, and even certain games had briefly act like a man child. Now Sonic SatAM, Underground and most of the Archie brand comics, not so much.

I'm not a Sonic Fan, even having played like the first 2 games way back in the day when they were new and having some awareness of the various games and cartoons. That being said:

Is there anyone who wanted this? Is there a huge underground audience that's been begging for a live action Sonic Film? Are the Sonic fans out there holding their breath for this?

Especially since video game movies on average are pretty bad. There's apparently a Metal Gear Solid film in production right now, which I'm both looking forward to and dreading at the same time.

Live Action? No. Live Action sucks. Want to do a movie about a game? Make it animated, make it CG. MK11's story mode is what I would want a video game movie to look like.

I think Jim Carrey is the only thing that looks good about this movie tbh. There is no actor that I can think of that would make a 'good' Dr Robotnik. Also, they are apparently changing Sonic's design now because of the backlash.

How did nobody realize how horrible it looked? Did it have to get to the point where the world had to step in? You'd think among the hundreds of people involved in the making of this movie more than a few would speak up...

I would make a joke about corporate execs being chimps wearing suits, but honestly, that's insulting to chimps.

I'd say it might be a left-over instinct from the 90's, when videogames still looked like pixelated boxes, and the idea of Hollywood making a big budget "real" looking version of our favourite game would be the most awesome thing. But with the way games look now there just no point to them at all.

And I'm just dreading the Metal Gear Solid movie. Please dear God, let this project get permanently shelved, just like every other videogame movie.
