I dunno, but that Knuckles show had a weird "Knuckles is basically Jewish" moment

There's a scene where Knuckles is having dinner with the human family (because there's always a human family) and talking about how the Echidna were oppressed and hated for being different and the Jewish mother goes "Our stories are not so different, you know"

Then the story continues

Wow, thats... definitely a script there. Just... wow.

Did they hire a fanfic author or something? Wow.

[–] MayoPete@hexbear.net 18 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

That entire mini series read like a fan fic from someone super into Sonic and 🎳

The astral plane tribal chieftain bowling alley SonicWorld lore dump is peak post-Zooniverse/Mardi Gras parade. Almost as fun as “Eels” IMHO.

When the past and the future come together to make something not quite as good as either chefs-kiss

2 years ago. It was pretty good.

really wish they'd gone fully animated for these movies. Guess they lacked confidence in the first one so they went with the generic "alien meets human" formula, but now the human characters (sans Eggman of course) feel like dead weight. Oh well, it'll probably be fine. Curious to see how far they'll go with Shadow's backstory.

I'm never watching these movies because I have no desire to see Sonic on Earth. one of the best things about the games is all the colorful imaginative environments! I don't need Sonic to be friends with James Marsden, fuck off. this live-action hybrid nonsense needs to stop, it's never good

I like Ben Schwarz and think he was a good choice for the character. it's a shame because they could have made a pretty decent animated Sonic movie, oh well

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 6 points 3 weeks ago

Why couldn't it be Moebius, the one with Princess Sally Acorn and all that? sicko-wistful

Shadow is gonna say the N word

Oh well, it'll probably be fine. Curious to see how far they'll go with Shadow's backstory.

Seems like theres no Rouge or Amy Rose, I wonder how they will make the whole Ark stuff without these characters. I saw some pictures and theres Maria and Gerald Robotnik there.

[–] GeorgeZBush@hexbear.net 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Yeah they show Maria in the trailer. I wonder if they'll stay true to SA2 and have a child get shot by ~~NATO~~ GUN.

[–] Redcuban1959@hexbear.net 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Asktually I believe it was never 100% said that they shot Maria in SA2. Only that she died in an accident. Gerald gets shot thought. In Shadow the Hedgehog they show Maria getting shot. Seems like this sonic movie is a mix of SA2, Sonic Heroes and Shadow.

[–] KhanCipher@hexbear.net 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

In the adaptation of SA2's story in Sonic X, they straight up say that Maria was shot and killed.

[–] Redcuban1959@hexbear.net 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Was that cut in the US/International version? I remember a bunch of weird changes in Sonic X besides Chris being there.

[–] KhanCipher@hexbear.net 2 points 2 weeks ago

The 4Kids dub hard cuts the shot out to the guy recollecting the memory, but the guy who shot her (who also has ptsd from it) says "She was so young, I'll never forget her face".

Genuinely surprised that we haven't seen a Sonic: The Movie: The Game yet.

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 3 points 3 weeks ago

Something like this?

[–] kleeon@hexbear.net 6 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

There's a second movie? puzzled

[–] Redcuban1959@hexbear.net 4 points 3 weeks ago

In 2022, we even watched it on Hextube lol

[–] peeonyou@hexbear.net 4 points 3 weeks ago

almost 20 years ago in 1997

You missed it! That’s too bad it was great. Eggman starts getting his iconic look and voice and I liked it more than I thought I would. I only got into sonic because of the snapcube dubs, but right around the time the movies came out I was transitioning from an ironic fan to a fan.

I still haven’t played most of the games but I really liked both movies. Copaganda elements were lame, but I don’t care.
