swole Sonic was already on the Internet as an obscure meme in 2014. Better hedgehogs:

This has been floating around my Twitter lately.

Not sure if it's real, but supposedly, this is before they changed the cast last year.

Are you seriously bitching that his shoes are different when it's been almost two decades since he started rocking Soap shoes and they've been redesigned with every new iteration since. This is like when the Tron Legacy trailer dropped and people were complaining that the light cycles weren't making 90 degree turns when that was something straight from the original movie, people who don't actually have any knowledge of or familiarity with the thing being updated are the ones crying loudest out of some weird reflexive outrage at change.
Speaking as somebody who does have knowledge and familiarity with the thing being updated, I just have to :goonsay: that Sonic's shoes actually haven't really changed. They used the Soap Shoe design for Adventure 2 and immediately went back to the Adventure design (which was basically the classic design with a white sole) from then onward - probably in no small part due to Soap Shoes going out of business.

Only the dead can know peace from these hats.
I'm all about TRON Legacy's soundtrack and general aesthetic, so it's a shame it's so boring story-wise. I was kinda disappointed the first time I watched it and literally nearly fell asleep the second time. At least it looked nice?

Also saw Into The Spiderverse yesterday and I found it hugely enjoyable. A treat to watch and listen to, and I say this as someone who otherwise doesn't really care all that much about comic books. I think my only gripe with it is they seemed to be setting something up with Miles' dad thinking that Spiderman was responsible for his brother's death, but nothing really comes of it. I'm kind of glad they didn't though after that scene with Prowler. :( Speaking of him, I loved the way they incorporated those creepy sounds he made into the music when he's chasing Miles.

If this is real then that actually doesn't look bad. And if that's how he looks goddamn do the two posters do a poo poo job of showing that.

But if that's the real design then I'm okay with it, as someone who praises Sonic's normal character design as being one of the best around, this doesn't butcher it as much as the other two posters make it seem

I wasn't even defending it, I called it an abomination in the text, but I guess I wrote it a bit more verbosely, I was trying to mimick a snobbish art critic, but like I said, not a big deal, the joke didn't catch so I moved on.

I could see it as being an early mock-up as a proof of concept early in production, especially since Sonic appears to have three legs in that poster. I wouldn't hold out hopes for it though, since the proportions seem significantly different from the other posters.

So Tails isn't going to show up until like the third movie when Blaze the Cat tricks Sonic into drinking poison causing him to vomit Tails back up along with Amy Rose, Shadow the Hedgehog, Rouge the Bat, Knuckles the Echidna, and Cream the Rabbit whom Sonic had also eaten so that they would not be a threat to his eternal cosmic reign?

Spider-verse was a bit stuffed, but pretty dang good! I was really shocked that they flat out PG-kill Miles' Peter onscreen. Was really expecting them to timeskip to a take on what happened in the comics or something.

500 Zeus a body.


And unlike Peter Parker from the MCU who has sequels lined-up despite getting dusted, Mile's Peter Parker is unambiguously dead. And then he meet's up with Alt-Peter-Parker who's 38, living like a slob, out-of-shape, and divorced. Alt-Peter gets better but Mile's Peter is gone. Maybe in a sequel his Aunt May and MJ will get closure because this movie is packed enough.

Tap "A" to drink!!!

Spider Verse was pretty good. I might argue it could've been a smidge longer. It picks up steam really fast and just steamrolls to the end without a second to breathe or really reflect. Which is fine, it works, but some major events happen and they just gloss over real quick.

I wonder for a sequel if they'll stick to the multi-verse kick and maybe bring in some other Spider-People not shown in this movie.

Post credit scene question:

Who voiced Spider Man 2099? Sounded again like Chris Pine, but wasn't sure.

What are you talking about? Eggman is already sympathetic: he really wants to build theme parks and blowup up a smartass hedgehog, how is that not relatable?
