StormSurge Posted April 30, 2019 Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 I really want to like this. Sonic! Jim Carrey (90's style), Ben Schwartz, that awesome ring sound effect, etc. Plus, I generally tend to not look at things negatively. And yet... 😬 jmjustin6, Atari Creep and Justin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Creep Posted April 30, 2019 Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 This look like a total goof. Might just be crazy enough to be fun to watch. STRONG LANGUAGE Justin and StormSurge 2 Quote Don't just watch TV, PLAY IT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD Posted April 30, 2019 Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 I just saw the preview for this. I'm just shaking my head. It does have a decent cast, though. Justin and Atari Creep 2 Quote 🖖 Going to the final frontier, gaming... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched it a few more times and I have to say the tone is 100% spot on!!! I am still 50/50 on it but will go see it regardless. Looks like a fun flick to make a quick cash grab with merchandise and then said away just as fast as it came. Justin 1 Quote Don't just watch TV, PLAY IT!

nosweargamer Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 They definitely got the 90's vibe going with the music and making Jim Carrey look younger. Hey, remember with he was miscast as a villain in the 90's? (Riddler) Maybe they're doing that to! That being said, I'll give it a shot when it hits Netflix or Prime.

atarifan95 Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 This is kind of interesting. I always imagined Robotnik being more menacing, so Jim Carrey's performance just doesn't do it for me in this trailer. I also kind for wish they'd just make an animated movie that's completely CGI. But I can't really judge a movie based on a trailer, so I'll wait for it to actually be released.

Atari 5200 Guy Posted May 2, 2019 Report Share Posted May 2, 2019 I'm excited about this. Did anyone else catch the metaphor point to the Sega Genesis? "Every Hero ... Has A Genesis." Yep. They did that. For what it's worth, Sonic looks amazing. At least he isn't voiced by Jaleel White. That annoyed me in the Sonic cartoon series. I mean it was the same annoying voice as his Family Matters character. Personally, I felt he missed Sonic's attitude that I was expecting. At least with this the voice is better. Almost sounds like the person who voiced him for the Western release of Sonic Adventure. I'd watch it just for the hell of it. We've already had movies based on video games but not a single video game character unless I missed it/them. Super Mario Bros. counts as two...not one. And that didn't go over well. I really hope the Fast & Furious and Sega crew know what they are doing. I hope we get to see Sonic's origin in this. CGI would have been better but live action works for me as long as it's done professionally. I'm still not certain who the hell Carrey is suppose to be. At the end of the trailer you see a glimpse of I assume Eggman but him and Carrey's character don't really look the same.

TrekMD Posted May 3, 2019 Report Share Posted May 3, 2019 That looks much better. I wonder if they already had the design made and decided to use it given the feedback. Quote 🖖 Going to the final frontier, gaming... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari 5200 Guy Posted May 3, 2019 Report Share Posted May 3, 2019 Now THAT is the Sonic I know and love. Makes me want to drag out my Dreamcast and play some Sonic Adventure. I still hope the movie will give backgrounds of both Sonic and Eggman. Would be nice to finally know how each came about and how they managed to become each other's rival. Please...no Tails. Not yet anyway. TrekMD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari 5200 Guy Posted May 4, 2019 Report Share Posted May 4, 2019 I got a feeling that the Sonic, or first Sonic, in this movie is going to get picked on for years to come lol. Maybe Sega should do the movie's CGI Sonic??? No one would know the character better than them, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're truly committed to getting Sonic right we can wait a little longer. A Jim Carrey Sonic movie is something that should've come out in 1994.

Atari Creep Posted May 24, 2019 Report Share Posted May 24, 2019 Ya, the delay is fine with me. It's not like I have been waiting for this to come out. If they use that time to fix things, great!!! Honestly though, the only thing about how Sonic looked that bothered me was his teeth. Weirded me out. lol Atari 5200 Guy and StormSurge 2 Quote Don't just watch TV, PLAY IT!
