The first 20 minutes were the worst part of the movie because it ripped off too many jokes from social media and had too many pop culture references, and then it settled down into a much better movie when the rest stopped shoehorning those in. Except for the opening scene where Sonic was testing his speed using the cop's speed camera radar, the cop could've been any other occupation, like a home repairman (in keeping with the "town's fix-it-man and go-for guy" role), but Hollywood can't help but make every movie have a cop for a major character.

Buddykins : What's the premise of this thread?

George Costanza : I think I can sum up the thread for you in one word. Nothing.

Foo Diddley : Well, as I was saying, I would post as myself, as a former pizza cook, and I would make comments about stuff and talk about yardwork I've done, which is all true.

George Costanza : Yeah, but nothing happens in the thread. You see, it's just like life. You know, you eat, you go shopping, you read, you eat, you read, you go shopping.

Buddykins : All right, tell me about the stories. What kind of stories?

George Costanza : Oh, no. No stories.

Buddykins: No stories? So what is it?

George Costanza : What did you do today?

Buddykins : I got up and I snorted cocaine.

George Costanza : There's a thread. That's a thread.

Buddykins : How is that a thread?

Foo Diddley : Well, maybe something happens to you on the way to your dealer.

George Costanza : No, no, no! Nothing happens!

Buddykins : Well, why am I reading it?

George Costanza : Because it's on C-SPAM.

Cops can make great movie characters since they're walking contradictions (e.g. Mad Max, 48 Hrs) but the Sonic movie doesn't really do anything with it bc the setting is so idyllic

I worked at dominos

all of the veggies come cut up in little baggies and all of the dough comes preportioned on plastic trays but that's probably pretty standard
