Games don't have to be shit just because they're kids games.
But not before Sonic learns thatIn before Sonic has to dig a bomb out of Amy Rose's body.
I once started writing such a script. It was horrible so I stopped.
Wow, someone actually thinks Sonic Adventure 2 was the last good Sonic game.
dark, edgy version skewed towards older audiences
Why do people care about this franchise? It hasn't been good since 2001 at the latest.
I believe there are correct ways to do things. Sometimes you can go crazy with rebooted interpretations, but sometimes there are good ways tackle a franchise or project. A Sonic the Hedgehog fully animated children's film with no humans(other than Eggman) IS the best way to do it. That's how the Sonic world SHOULD be represented(still never cared for the other human characters in the series, IMO, they never felt right). It's like the Double Dragon movie(yeah, that one) or the Super Mario movie. Double Dragon could've been done good(but might've been better if it was made in the 80s), a pure martial arts movie that takes cues from Bruce Lee's kung fu flicks, as well as movies like The Warriors(even The Last Dragon, as far as 80s-look is concerned). Super Mario, while I'll always have nostalgia for it(even though it's a bad SMB movie), it's something that can't be done live action. Animated is the way to go(and now, how the CG looking SMB games look, it could be done like that in a similar Pixar/Dreamworks style). I do think there are PROPER ways to approach a project(ways that are true to the frachise as well as styles that best fit it). Sometimes you just need to kick the people with bad ideas to the curb. Not a game movie, but Dragon Ball Evolution... great example of now NOT to tackle a franchise in movie form.Brad bird and Phil Johston... Hahahahahahahaha
Don't make me laugh, they will never do a project like this and even if they did by some divine grace, they would change any gritty realistic script into a children animation movie with no humans at all, and because SEGA will say no to that (because they are idiots) the would leave the project as fast as they could.
I have barely touched upon this franchise aside from Sonic the Hedgehog 1 - 3 and Sonic and Knuckles, but the darkest moment I remember is in Sonic and Knuckles when Knuckles gets electrocuted by Dr. Robotnik near the chaos emeralds. I truly felt sorry for the guy. Man, sonic was so much better then. I can't imagine a film adaptation will be any good.
Obviously not. But the games are mostly mediocre to good, some pretty good. And kids love them. Same as with Sonic's friends, only adults think they're lame. My younger brothers for like Shadow and such.
they really making a movie about Sonic?

Everything.

It probably wasn't dark nor edgy enough
Is Sonic going to hunt down smack dealers?
Obama chuckled. "You mean the Chaos Emeralds?"
Sounds so bad it'll be good. And on a tangent looks like video games might be the next Hollywood trend: there's that SEGA vs Nintendo movie, an Adam Sandler pixel movie, and now this.
I was just about to point out how we already have a dark and edgy Sonic film with live-action.
Btw here's the film, for those lucky souls who haven't seen it yet.
You ever heard of the illuminati?
They need to just put Sonic out of his misery. Hasn't been good since Sonic Adventure 2.
Sometimes I wonder if there is a secret committee of people specifically dedicated to making Sonic shit.
I'm so sick of hearing people say this.
Haven't played Sonic Colors? Sonic Generations?

And look how that turned out

Just kill the damn IP already. Anybody with sense has moved on. Its clear they don't give a shit about the gameplay and just use him as a patch on Sega's sinking ship. All that effort on Generations and they go back to shit after.
I'm so sick of hearing people say this.
Haven't played Sonic Colors? Sonic Generations?
This is the only Sonic the Hedgehog movie.
Yeah he's wrong
there hasn't been a good game since Sonic 2
Half of Generations being decent doesn't make it a good game
I'm seeing a lot of people here voicing their lousy opinions about the Sonic games they have never played. I mean I get that bandwagons are fun, but you know what else is fun? Knowledge! So go on and play those games that you *claim* are bad only because you were too much of a broke-ass to actually buy them
In the grimdarkness and edginess of Sonic, there is only gorilla warfare.4chan must be pleased with these news.
Yeah he's wrong
there hasn't been a good game since Sonic 2
Half of Generations being decent doesn't make it a good game
The Classic half of Generations wasn't quite as solid as the Modern stages, but the only part of the game that was less than "decent" was the last fourth or so.
Which, amusingly enough, also applies to Sonic 2.
Yeah, Doug Walker was in the fanfilm.Is that nostalgia critic?
Edgy huh? So does that mean we might see something like this in the movie?:
