Just checked my suspicion and, yep, the 8-bit Master System version of Sonic from 1991 looks better than this one.

But don't just take my word for it, feel free to compare and contrast:

Critical support for Jim Carrey, anti-fascist.

His cartoons are somewhat terrifying, as they should be given the subject-matter. Too bad he's an anti-vaxxer.

bad news: were all helpless cogs doomed to ceaselessly perpetuate a machine
good news: the machine is a Sega and were all sonic the hegehog

That's Super Sonic, right?

2019 Sonic looks like Dr. Seth Brundle attempted to teleport a toilet brush without checking to make sure that a relatively-fresh (yet rapidly-moldering) corpse hadn't snuck into the first pod at the last moment. You always have to double check, Seth. This isn't a game.

Someone on Reddit calculated precisely how many babies Sonic kills in the trailer.

And that's not even counting the babies that thing almost certainly ate along the way.

a friend calculated that sonic's EMP blast requires output (over a few seconds) of c.20,084,610kW = 48,203 kWh storage

and that the same could be achieved (give or take the technology), with 183,112,560 lbs of potatoes

I live in the densest hospital district in the PNW, and our building still has power when it goes out in the rest of the city, bcz of backup routing for the medical facilities on every other block

try harder next time, blue dude

P sure it's canon that Sonic's powers overcome even backup systems in order to ensure 100% infanticide wherever he goes.

I don’t get either of those tweets, but I also had not seen the movie Sonic before and am now on the side of any incel manbaby triggered by their childhood being defiled

In a time so plagued with divisiveness, I'd like to think we can all overcome our differences and come together as one to declare Movie Sonic an abomination in the eyes of whatever deity one may claim (and also an affront to reason and basic sanity, for those of us on the secular train).

gang, can I just say that the Ready Player One thread got me through some rough patches last year and I'm really sensing promise from this one, so I'd just like to say "thanks ILE"

just spent a couple of minutes googling this movie's execs to see if there's anything there to back up my hunch that this entire enterprise is a producers-style box-office-suicide tax-dodge and somehow ended up on the imdb page for donnie yen's forthcoming enter the fat dragon which uhh

Whereas I was indulging a delightful tour through the world of terrible CGI last night and came across a videogame adaptation that had somehow passed me by completely:

Speaking of which, I'd like to see a CGI reconstruction of Christ's Passion in the style of the Ecce homo from the Sanctuary of Mercy church in Borja, Spain.

this was true for 2 decades but now sonic mania exists

man I was just thinking how great it would be if the movie used that ridiculous "GOTTA FOLLOW THAT RAINBOW" song instead of Gangster's Paradise

Tonight, the investors will sleep soundly, safe in the knowledge that they've put the fate of this film in the hands of someone who's demonstrated both consistently sound judgment and steadfast courage in his convictions.

Thank you for the support. And the criticism. The message is loud and clear... you aren't happy with the design & you want changes. It's going to happen. Everyone at Paramount & Sega are fully committed to making this character the BEST he can be... #sonicmovie #gottafixfast 🔧✌️

Like okay, if you start inadvisably installing a toilet on your own with zero plumbing knowledge, there are plenty of steps in the process where you can sober up and acknowledge that you're in way over your head and should never have even begun such a clearly disastrous undertaking in the first place. You absolutely do not and should not plow through regardless of your intense misgivings. But...what do you even do if you've been deeply involved in making a Sonic the Hedgehog movie and you eventually realize how deeply fucked you are? You can't just...run away and hide, can you?

Ce Ce Penistongs (Old Lunch), Thursday, 2 May 2019 23:08 (five years ago) link

At any rate, hope you enjoyed those nights and weekends while you had them, hundreds of people who will be redoing a ton of work that they probably already felt kind of sick about having done the first time.

i can't really get behind this, the early sonic games are stone cold classics w/ mostly great soundtracks

that said i wouldn't disagree if someone argued that sonic himself is kind of a bad character, he's pretty much the poochie of his era

fowler: "we've had the feedback. it's… not good news folks"
everyone at paramount & sega: *sighs, stays silent*
fowler: "they… they… they REALLY want to fuck the hedgehog"

mark s, Friday, 3 May 2019 07:49 (five years ago) link

that’s the thing, tho - we’re living in perhaps the most polymorphously perverse period in human history, where people take to twitter to express their longing to fuck pretty much anything imaginable, and NO-ONE wants to fuck this hedgehog despite there being a colossal pre-existing base of desperately horny deviantart posters whose desire for all kinds of sonic-based sex knows no bounds
