You know there are certain shots in this trailer where Sonic doesn't look that bad like when he's making a face at whoever that guy is while he's talking to him in the car and when he's looking up at Doctor Eggman nee Robotnik while surrounded by drones. Basically when he's looking angry he looks fine it's when he tries to be funny and shows his human teeth that it all goes to hell

the trailer looks abysmal but i'm sure the kids will love it
dunno why everyone keeps flipping out about live-action adaptations of anthropomorphic animals having human teeth though. like yeah, it's a little creepy, but i remember when michael bay's tmnt came out and everyone cracked it over their teeth and cited them as a key reason the new turtles were inferior to the 1990 ones, but like it's not exactly a new thing |

Jim Carrey as Dr. Robtonik was great but everything else shown in the trailer wasn't good.
Like the inverse of the Detective Pikachu trailers in regards to not getting live-action right and should have just stuck to being an animated film instead. |

I tried to figure out what put me off about Sonic's design and then I figured it out they made him way too humanoid they should have exaggerated the proportions where they are normally exaggerated his hands and feet

i actually think that first one is a pretty good midway point. don't think it was realistic to ever expect them to go whole-hog vg version in a live setting

He looks exactly like a guy in a furry suit.
Which is perfect for the wrong reasons. |

It looks like a bag of wank.
I still want to go see Detective Pikachu, though. |

Robotnick is supposed to be a fat-fuck. Looks like he has cancer with Carrey.

If I was casting for Robotnic I doubt I could find better than John Ratzenberger CGI'd to be the width of a house.

According to the film's director, Paramount & Sega are currently working on a redesign for Sonic due to the negative backlash generated from the film's debut trailer.

Just make him look like the Photoshop done above that looks just like the fucking game. It's not that hard. Part of the detective Pikachu charm is that the Pokemon look just fucking like the anime, except 3d. They don't need to try and redesign/humanize sonic the hedgehog.

There is now backlash against the backlash because something something crunch time.

Well the poor CGI workers are gonna have to work 20 hours a day to get the movie out on time. Of course they could just ya know..delay it..but that'd be too much trouble

They could've saved time by just making him look like sonic to begin with

he looks more like robotnik by the end of the film (following whatever explosion makes him look like this - shot seems like a post-credits thing tbh but is probably close to the finish either way) looks like he's in mushroom hill zone there too tbh still pretty skinny though |

The fact that she's not in the trailer nor is an existing character wasn't clues enough?

Film got delayed till February 14, 2020 and official reason due to them needing more time to rework Sonic's design.

They'll give themselves a better shot if they, you know, make him look like Sonic.

It works out great for the makers of this movie because the amount of publicity it has received paired with the delay due to the fixture of the title character, will probably elicit even more ticket sales than it originally would have. Kinda brilliant, intentionally or not.

I enjoyed the second film for the most part. Nowhere near as good as the first, but I still had a big smile on my face for some of the fights.

I lost my smile when Colin Firth appeared on the billboards. What a stupid way to burn an audience.
It was a bad film with none of the disarming charm of the first. |
