@phbz: they can easily make sonic work in live actiob, without making him partly human(which sonic isnt, just no). Plenty of fan creations from real sonic fans on twitter. The higher ups were full of themselves as usual, and probably ignored criticism during production. I refuse to believe that it was just now they realize that they screwed up the design. Sonic is not part human, shouldnt resemble a human. Period
Did they believe that making him more humanoid would make him more relatable/acceptable???? I feel bad for sonic fans. Marvel made freaking rocket racoon work, without sacrificing the design. Why not just translate the game sonic design(preferably the early chubby/original version) and put to live action, kinda like what wb does with pokemon. Changing how the main character looks would just piss people off
My problem is, they made sonic way too humanoid. It could be a good movie, who knows, but when you fail to get the actual main character right(that has decades of material, to base its design on) then all hope vanishes. WB did it right with the pokemon movie. The pokemon actually look like their game/anime counterpart, just with added live action detail that is acceptable and belivable(fluffy fur for pikachu, scales for charizard etc) this movie? Why the hell give sonic an almost humanoid face, legs and arms? Also big fail for not putting his iconic gloves. They literally had one job, any hardcore sonic fan with decent photoshop skills would create a better live action version of sonic, that actually looks like sonic
Nintendo doesnt need answers for generic titles like Days Gone. Seriously its literally the combination of TLOU and usual open world tropes(with a sprinkle of dying light)
By my surprise, I open up twitter and my feed is full of Sonic memes, I then stumble upon the Sonic the Hedgehog live action trailer......
Who the hell approved that design? He looks too humanoid wtf? Also what is with the speedforce electricity stuff? How can sega manage to screw up their main Mascot so many times, in a consistent manner? Compared it to the live action pokemon movie, its like night and day. Does Sega actually have their hands on this as well? The open credit says sega does, but I refuse to believe that
yet again MS influence the industry in a bad way, first paid online now this bullshit. I don't want an always online future(inb4 herp derp blablabla..... don't kid yourself, its the beginning of always online future with all this service and microtransaction talk). If it happens, then good bye gaming hobby
Yeah it feels more like a natural revolution to banjo kazooie than sm64. Still it's official
This is the greatest game of all time, the sheer variety is insane, not to mention controls that rival the best of sm64 in a 3D platformer. This is literally my dream game and true successor to not only sm64, but banjo kazooie as well(sry yooka laylee)
