the movie feels like they're doing a kind of riff on this, except he's just always been kind of a dick, and it escalates to maniac over time. complete with, im pretty sure, his name going from Robotnik to Eggman, which is kinda fun actually

According to leaks his name is actually Robotnik Eggboy

Kind of, but I like the notion of Kintobor / Robotnik being the catalyst for Sonic's speed. I also like the quasi-environmentalist message of using the chaos emeralds to eradicate the evil and pollution of the world, although if you're setting a film in our world that becomes a lot more complex.

Maybe I just want the real Sonic movie where he's a radical anarchist enviro-terrorist.

In other news, I finally watched Into The Spiderverse and MY WORD that’s a style/plot that would have suited a Sonic movie beautifully.

How would Spiderverse’s plot work in a Sonic context? Game Sonic dies and now Silver has to learn how to be a hero from SatAM Sonic?

The real question is "who is the Miles Morales of the sonic cannon" and the obvious answer is Blaze as she comes from an alternate universe (fuk u sonic 06) and has similar but different powers.

Sonic Adventure Sonic dies and 2006 Sonic gets to be the washed up mentor.

You need wacky out there sonics for contrast I nominate Sonicman and Sonic Underground Sonic for the roles of Noir and Peter Porker. Sonic's already an anime so I don't know how to fill that role maybe just put classic sonic in there?

And ofc. The Spider Gwen role would be Amy Rose, specifically the cool version from the British comics.

Yes, definitely, but the Spiderham analogue is clearly AoStH Sonic.

Ok, I've been holding back, but since STC has been mentioned a couple of times this page:

I've just launched a fortnightly podcast about the British Sonic comics. The idea is not to be all "so as you know, in issue #84..." but to try and cover everything in the magazine (yes, including the Mark Millar Streets of Rage comics etc), and paint a picture of what it was like to be there and read them at the time. I reckon a few of you here will enjoy it, other people seem to be.

Here go!

Or here go if you don't like apples

Shaped like a friend

I have a question about the racing game- if me and a couple friends wanted to play online and team up do we have to use the pre-set teams? I don't want to play eggman and force a friend to suffer Zavok for example.

Would kind of suck if that was the case

If there’s going to be a Sonic movie multiverse then that means there’s now an alternate dimension Sonic that never even was allowed to exist because the reaction to his trailer was bad.

This will be Sonic Prime if this ends up being an Infinite Crisis thing.

Teams can be any combination of characters, I believe.

See, this I actually like. It doesn't throw out the conventions of 3D Sonic, it grows them, uses a model that's still distinct from behind instead of using classic for the sake of using classic, and it either puts friggin rails on the sides of the loops or makes them wide enough to avoid slipping out of them to make up for the lack of splines. This is a much better take than the likes of Sonic Utopia.

Lmao the loving stones on Iizuka to say this when his studio hasn't produced anything worth looking at that didn't have Whitehead there to do all the work in literally almost a full decade.

... What the hell? He's just saying that he and Sonic Team have no involvement with the movie and that it's all Paramount's responsibility to make it a success. Which is true. He has nothing to do with it. Seriously, why are people in this fandom so eager to twist his words into that of a supervillain's?

The "make something successful" thing is just a way of politely saying "I hope they can make something good" without giving his actual thoughts on it, whatever they may be.

Also, Mania's development team have had nothing but positive things to say about Iizuka's contributions and support of the team and he contributed a fair bit to the final product. They're REALLY not happy with the attitude that Mania was all them and an open defiance to Sonic Team and its management.
