Oh man oh man... I don't usually make short random reaction blogs... but in this case how can I not?
I heard rumors of a live action Sonic movie for a while now. SEGA and Sony are teaming up for this one. As far as I can tell the plot will involve Sonic coming to our world and work alongside a cop (James Marsden) to stop Doctor Robotnik (Eggman), who will be played by Jim Carrey. Yikes.
To top it off, we finally get a look at Sonic's silhouette in the movie teaser poster.
Just... good god!! The more realistic body proportions make him look like a regular person with an oversized Sonic mask on. What were they thinking???
I imagine Sonic was going to be CGI, why not just use the classic design with more realistic fur detail or something. At this point I wonder if they'll even keep Sonic's bizzare eyeballs, I think it would go way too far if they gave him regular eyes.
It's too soon to say anything, as this movie won't come out til the end of next year, but so far this is looking like the thing of nightmares. I'll just let the picture speak for itself.
Let's hope the movie has a decent story at least to make it entertaining. I'm not expecting a masterpiece out of this (especially since the movie really should have taken place on Sonic's world and not ours), but let's hope it's at least somewhat enjoyable....
Edit- it sounds like the producers are a little too concerned with grounding the talking blue hedgehog. This includes him learning to increase his speed as the movie progresses but also changing the way his eyes look to make him more realistic. We have yet to see how they'll make his eyes look but it won't be the classic and weird one big eye with two pupils like in the games.
Second edit- I kinda don't want to make a second article on this. This poster has been seen in some theaters.
Some people might claim it's fake, mostly because we just can't believe the movie makers are really going with this, but those all-too realistic human legs do match up with the first poster....
