Sonic had mute cockiness in the 90s Then he was openly loud and snide Then he was kind and quick at the quips Then he was just... Unfunny Then he got whiny and depressed Now hes acting like an 80s kids show
I think the NEXT Sonic Movie Sequel should be about The Echidna Tribe, I think it would be pretty cool to learn more about knuckles backstory as a setup
Unpopular opinion: I'd rather have the sequel(s) not introduce the comic characters, I understand the fans of the comics wanting that, but most sonic fans are either game only or barely know those comic, non canon characters. I think that the official characters fit the sonic world perfectly and make more sense with the cast
Tbh if this grows into a proper cinematic universe of its own, I wouldn't mind it if after the adventure storylines are done that they start introducing the comic characters
I wish I could co-write the Sonic scripts with Jeff. He seems to really like and understand the Sonic Characters- and I absolutely love him for bringing this cast together.
“In the game he’s just a blue hedgehog” is he not aware that there are modern games that have him talk and has a personality. Hell he still had personality in the first games, he was the first with idle animation that tapped his feet or fell asleep. The hell is this guy talking about.
Could be just refering the old games where there's none of that but if he dosent know about sonic adventure 1 & 2 then I have questions lol those are my favorite games !
That doesn't surprise me. When I was a kid I played the megadrive/genesis sonic the hedgehog but after that I dropped sonic and went to Nintendo before coming back to sonic many many years later. Sega's advertising was so poor here that I had no idea that there was a 3D sonic game in existence in the early days. I didn't even know the Dreamcast existed.^-^;;;; It was when the Gamecube came out I saw a few sonic games but didn't pick them up at the time so I didn't even know Sonic had more personality than the megadrive games. The sonic game that brought me back in was Sonic Rush and was shocked at him talking. lol Had to catch up on everything I missed. I can see how it's possible for the general public to not be aware of the 3D iterations or even his personality. I'm actually pleasantly surprised when children do know who sonic is when our advertising is still as horrible as ever. There was literally no advertising on TV here for sonic until Paramount started advertising the movie. So if you didn't catch the shows (that were very short lived here), you would never know sonic.
THETIMELORD1963 Lets not turn this into a fan war. It is a fact Sonic had a personality before the movie. Be it the cartoons/animes, but mostly the games. The classic expressions gave him a bit to work with and assume but games like with the Sonic Adventure series or even the spinoff like Riders gave Sonic and crew character. Don’t take this as an attack on the film. I understand why they may think this, but I personally disagree that he had no personality before the movie, espically in the games.
It's not really that he lacked character. It's that his recent portrayals have made him seem so much more grown up in the way he sounded and acted compared to his initial appearance. Sonic is a character who thinks he's cool and definitely has an attitude but the fact that he's cute too and has that Mickey Mouse quality especially makes him charming. This film did that for the first time in many years in my opinion.
EAT THIS YOU GRAVY SUCKING DOG are there seriously still people calling Gunn a pedophile. Dude they just a bunch of bad tweets from 12 years ago. Fucking get over it.
I think the 2nd movie should basically be sonic 2 and 3, with tails, knuckles, metal and maybe even amy. then the 3rd movie should have shadow and others, but that's just my opinion tbh.
You wrote Sonic as a character better than he’s been portrayed in over ten years. Thank you so, so much for listening to the fans and giving us a wonderful story and such a nice, fresh taste on the characters.
🤔That's good thinking, smart to have Sonic a 13year old teenager who has nothing but old vintage stuff that the world disregarded. I love Sonic's inner child dynamic with Tom
What I want: Knuckles and Amy to appear with Tails Longclaw to serve a part as well Eggman to show up and Sonic's quill to be in there as well (perhaps to tease Shadow) And Crush 40 to make a new song
My theory is this. It’s long but here we go: basically, it’s well established that Robotnik hates people so that’s why he uses robots and machines. So in the sequel they could have him build orbot and cubot, or any robot companion for that matter (to replace agent stone). Since he’s lost his mind at this point he can also adapt and embrace the name “Eggman” from sonic. At first the villain can be knuckles and this can tie into the introduction of the chaos emeralds. Eggman can then build Metal Sonic to destroy sonic and anyone from his home world for that matter, i.e. Tails and Knuckles, so knuckles agrees to help sonic and tails to defeat Eggman. So when metal sonic is eventually defeated, the three become friends. The end credit scene can be that Eggman, unbeknownst to the three heroes, stole the green chaos emerald. In the third movie, Eggman realizing that maybe instead of robotics, he has to use a hedgehog of his own to understand how to take him down, and therefore clones sonic using the quill creating shadow. Shadow, unlike sonic, wasn’t fortunate enough to carry on his powers, so Eggman uses the quill to create his iconic skates that allow him to travel as fast or if not faster than sonic. He also gives shadow the chaos emerald, allowing him to use chaos control. Sonic and Shadow have their showdown, at first shadow completely overpowering sonic with chaos control. Eventually, the emerald falls into sonic’s hands, and knuckles gives him the rest in order to help defeat shadow. Sonic becomes super sonic and defeats shadow. Eggman comes with his biggest machine yet (one of them from the games, whether it be the Egg Dragoon or even something similar to the Nega Wisp Armor) to kill all of them, forcing shadow to continue to fight. It’s at this point that shadow has an identity crisis and decides to be his own person, fighting against Eggman to free him since he’s technically his “servant.” Eggman is defeated, and sonic offers to befriend shadow and let him join the group. Shadow declines, saying he works alone and is not his friend. However, he says they aren’t enemies either, and will probably cross paths again one day. They split and the group is at peace...for now. So yea that’s my idea
"In the games he's just a blue hedgehog" I'm assuming these people have only played the first two or three games. With all due respect, comments like that just make you sound ignorant. Sonic has had plenty of personality in the games. And if you want to only talk about the classic era, and avoid the 3D games, look at the comics and cartoons! I'm sorry if this is coming out wrong, all I'm trying to say is people should do more research on a topic before they conduct an interview.
Well clearly they are talking about the original games. Otherwise they could reference the original cartoons and actors like Jaleel White who first brought personality to the little blue iconic hog.
I mean... Isn't the problem that nobody played past those games... ya know... because the general consensus is that for the most part the latter games suck?
Andrew Pether What I meant is that this guy interviewing is clearly not even up to date on Sonic in the first place. It’s reaching to say there’s much “personality” in those old games though. You mean what, him tapping his foot when you didn’t play? If you want to get into the older cartoons with Jaleel White, then I’d understand. Bottom line though, most of Sonic and friends personalities came during the Adventure era.
"I remember myself playing the game when I was a teenager... You turned him into a proper character [first of all, how dare you], because in the games, he's just a blue hedgehog." Spoken like a true person who barely or never played the games.
I'm pretty sure they made more money than they should of, hell I bet they can rehire and fully pay back all the animators, if not double of what they should, so a sequel seems like a no brainier.
If only animators get treated that nicely in the industry. They definitely deserve it though, plowing through all the hate and backlash to create something amazing.
Unfortunately Paramount contracted MPC, so if MPC Vancouver already got paid. If the studio decides to open up its branch again, Paramount doesn’t have any say in that decision.
why do all these interviewers think theres only one game? sonic has had character development over the years aswell as eggman and all the other characters in the sonic franchise. they could have found inspiration from the comics shows and later games for the character development.
@@littenfire3563 i'm not a gamer but i love gamer culture (the passion and skill true gamers have...just awesome) and i know there's more to Sonic, Mario, Link than just the first game
@@GoddessOfWhim2003 Part of being an interviewer is research. im not saying watch the shows play the games or read the comics but atleast know how big the franchise is before you ask a stupid question. its not alot of work at all. you can lool up sonic franchise on wiki and its all on one page for you.
I think Fowler has a bright future as a Director. Parts with the sticky bomb, the two Quicksilver esque moments and the final battle with Robotnik were VERY well directed.
@@averyrosesilva Jeff confirmed in this interview that movie sonic is 13/14. This movie is a new origin story featuring a younger, alternative and more emotional version of sonic, which isn't canon to the OG sonic franchise at all. Plus, younger movie sonic is referred to as 'baby sonic' meaning he'd be like 3 years old, and since the timeskip said '10 years later', he'd be 13.
I know this guy didn't just say Sonic's just a blue hedgehog in the games. Like where have you been in the past few decades? Even in the classic games, Sonic has more personality then most video game characters starting out.
I think The Movie version of Sonic was adorable and relatable on so many dimensions... -and i'd have to buy my mom a box of a Maltesers if there isn't a sequel-
Chaos emeralds plot Sonic & Tails Eggman & Metal Sonic Death egg + Space fight + Super Sonic No more new characters or it gets diluted. Here you have plenty of quality material without shoving so much in a 90 min film. Heck i’d be happy if it went to 120 mins.
I think the point is that they don't want to use the later 3D games. At least, not yet. This was an origins movie for both Sonic and Dr. Robotnik, so chronologically Sonic the Hedgehog 1, 2, 3 & Knuckles (if they use these source materials for the future sequels) have not yet happened. If they are using the source material, it would most likely be the Genesis games and the comic strips, if not the others, as they are what started it all.
I don't know if it's possible but please for a sequel bring in Sally Acorn and the other mobians! This is a perfect opportunity to do it! There might not be a high chance but it's worth a shot! They deserve it!
Due to the complex stuff that caused the comics to end, I wouldn't get your hopes up on seeing anything with Sally Acorn and friends anytime soon, especially the movie!verse.
I hope the new movie actually takes place within sonics world, I liked the whole 'coming to our world' thing for this movie but I think if it just stays that way it will get a bit dull.. It might be cool to see sonic have to go back to his homeworld to deal with a problem involving knuckles?
from Warcraft, Detective Pikachu, Sonic the Hedgehog and you can even include the success of Netflix's Castlevania there seems to be an upswing of really entertaining Video Game Adaptations to film and seems the trend could continue.
He's totally right about this film being like 'Sonic Origins' and yes I really hope there will be a sequel. But I think they are just letting the success and outcome of the movie to pass first.
This sonic movie was the TRUTH!Dr. Robotnik gotta gain weight like the suit Martin lawrence used in the big mama movies but made into an egg shape and meet knuckles in the Mushroom hill zone laid back jamming to music baby sitting animals and trick him him into thinking sonic his enemy so he can steal the giant emerald from his floating island and put Knuckles through a lot of speed test cause he have the speed power similar to Sonic's to try and steal his power and help him get back to earth from the Mushroom hill zone and create a speed warping machine with Knuckles powering it from his speed,from there he gets knuckles to help him bully and try to capture Sonic on Earth.I hope they make him like the original Knuckles that was able to run as fast as sonic does instead of how they made him on the newer sonic game.Knuckles should be the missing character from the clan that came searching for sonic in the beginning of the movie making him born with the fast running ability like sonic that suppose to be the god like blood line hero for his tribe, but knuckles runs away with it and falls in love with a floating paradise island and finds a huge beautiful Gem that becomes his treasure and trying to steal it makes the island descend so he feels the need to become his most prized possession and protector and don't want it to fall to earth so people won't steal his Emerald or paradise.Just wanted to throw some ideas in there since i know a little bit about sonic and was fan growing up off the video games
please let there be a sequel with metal sonic as the badguy or have it be like sonic 2 where there's a metal sonic but he's not like THE metal sonic we all know from CD until he's perfected, I can't wait to see Tails either he looked amazing in the post credits scene
The Mushroom Planet Robotnik ended up in is a reference to Mushroom Hill Zone from Sonic & Knuckles. Also, at the beginning of the movie, Sonic’s home planet is invaded by echidnas and this is emphasized even more when Tails goes looking for him. So, I believe that not only is Tails going to be a central character but also Knuckles. I just wonder if they will follow the story from the games and introduce the Chaos Emeralds and the Death Egg? It’s a origins movie so following along the Genesis games first would make sense.
I have an idea on how the sequel could be made and what additional elements could be introduced. At least one other sonic character could be introduced (and that's enough for them to make a whole movie on), such as one of the (sonic) girls who would be a love interest and could play a princess role.
I would love to see a sequel and I know LOTS of others would too. You can search on RUclips for "Sonic movie audience reaction tails" and there is a list of FORTY FIVE videos where Tails is revealed at the end and the entire audiences scream to the tops of their lungs with excitement.
I hope he does the sequel..many times a sequel does happen but the studio changes directors...we need this guy back since he listen to the fans that didn't like Sonic's original look
Next movie should be a Knuckles movie where they fight Eggman, and then a Tails movie acting as a quasi sequel to the first movie with Eggman resurfacing. Then an Avengers style movie with Sonic Tails and Knuckles facing off against Chaos!!! 😁😆🤣
Imma be honest, I wasn’t about this movie at first but after watching it, I reaaaaaaally want a sequel. It wasn’t perfect but it was so fun and amazing, really loved the take on Sonic this time around.
I seriously think Devs and Studio execs were that stupid in "making sonic more realistic in a human world". After Pikachu's success they would've liked to do it more like that. Lucky that the fans stepped in or Baby Sonic could've been a Kronan baby. Im so keen for a sequel. "ROCK-CONNAISSANCE!!"
*SPOILERS* In the Pre-Credits Robotnik says he will be back at Christmas and the Emd Credits scene Tails would appear so ther is quite a high chance for a sequel
The 3rd movie should be about knuckles imo. Or it should show all of Sonic's classic friends (Tails, Knuckles, and maybe Amy?) going on an adventure to battle Robotnik.
I haven't seen the movie... But it would be a funny idea if at the end Robotnik gets stressed so he begins eating and losing hair, so he ends up like in the games
5% of the comments:THANK YOU FOR THE REDESIGN 15% of the comments: Ooh yass sequel! It should have (x) character(s)! 80% of the comments: hE's JuSt A bLuE hEDgEhOg?!?!?! 😤😤😤
I know that the second movie is gonna come out before Christmas because at the end of the movie,doctor eggman said that he will return to earth before Christmas
Sonic 2 can be sonic adventure dx made in the year 2,022 or 2,023. Sonic 3 can be sonic adventure 2 battle made in the year 2,025 or 2,026. Sonic 4 can be sonic heros all with Jim Carrey as Dr Robotnik. Dr Robotnik should create metal sonic along w scratch & grounder. Knuckles & others need to have good hip hop songs like this movie gave us. Wiz khalifa speed me up is awesome as hell. Sonic 2,020 is awesome as hell.
"Before he didn't really have character. In the game he was just a blue hedgehog basically."
Bitch Sonic has always been about having character.
Sonic is the corniest and sassiest mofo around, his personality is 90s and I will fight people who say he has no character >U

I hope they keep introducing new elements if the games stories as the movies go on.
Considering how they listened to the fans and have writers that are fans of the games , they probably will
The original 3 games & Knuckles give them a perfect road map to use.
I want Tails and Sonic in action, the 7 chaos emeralds, and Super Sonic.

Maybe with metal sonic and tails
The quill that Eggman has can either go to a quill powered Metal Sonic or a cloned Shadow route. Tails and Knuckles are sure givens.

This interview is so wholesome and the questions were amazing. I’m so glad I got to hear these answers straight from Jeff Fowler himself.
I really hope there is a sequel!
I know this guy didn't just say Sonic's just a blue hedgehog in the games. Like where have you been in the past few decades? Even in the classic games, Sonic has more personality then most video game characters starting out.
I think The Movie version of Sonic was adorable and relatable on so many dimensions... -and i'd have to buy my mom a box of a Maltesers if there isn't a sequel-
Chaos emeralds plot
Sonic & Tails
Eggman & Metal Sonic
Death egg + Space fight + Super Sonic
No more new characters or it gets diluted. Here you have plenty of quality material without shoving so much in a 90 min film. Heck i’d be happy if it went to 120 mins.
Sonic: doesn’t have any modern technology in his cave
Also Sonic: **flosses**
I bet he saw some kids doing it
@@JohnDoe-hk5ec I mean, it's possible.
RonJon Ugh.
Bro Sonic has always had character. Nonetheless I love the movie’s incarnation of him and really hope they make a sequel!
Everyone who worked on the movie are ready to take the wheel to make the sequel. They just need to wait and have the keys to it :'>
I love Sonic I saw the movie yesterday. It's so cool. 😍
Mess with the blue you get the quills
Jeff is a real man! Bravo on an excellent film!
I rather wait 3 years for a good movie then 2 years for a...mehhh movie.
Same
Who knows. Spiderman 2 came two years after the first movie and look what happened.
@@precieux6303 yeah so thats why we will wait for 3 years instead of 2 :)
@@ThatGioGuy The movie will objectively fail if we wait 3 years for a sequel. Just like it took 3 years for Spiderman 3 after Spiderman 2.🍑👅
i mean we kinda waited 7 years for an okay movie
The Sonic more movie success reminds me of the Venom movie success.
After the successful first opening weekend for this movie I can see a sequel for sure!!!
Do these people not know the existance of other Sonic games beyond the Genesis era?
Exactly!
The interviewer? Because I'm 90% sure that Sonic going to San Francisco is a reference to Central City/City Escape from Sonic Adventure 2.
@@chocov1233 yes, every interviewer in fact
@@hyruleguy9569 You're correct then.
I think the point is that they don't want to use the later 3D games. At least, not yet. This was an origins movie for both Sonic and Dr. Robotnik, so chronologically Sonic the Hedgehog 1, 2, 3 & Knuckles (if they use these source materials for the future sequels) have not yet happened.
If they are using the source material, it would most likely be the Genesis games and the comic strips, if not the others, as they are what started it all.
I don't know if it's possible but please for a sequel bring in Sally Acorn and the other mobians! This is a perfect opportunity to do it! There might not be a high chance but it's worth a shot! They deserve it!
Due to the complex stuff that caused the comics to end, I wouldn't get your hopes up on seeing anything with Sally Acorn and friends anytime soon, especially the movie!verse.
@@Wolf-Chalk well ya never know, also that stuff has been debunked with stuff so I wouldn't worry about that, I can see them coming back
I hope the new movie actually takes place within sonics world, I liked the whole 'coming to our world' thing for this movie but I think if it just stays that way it will get a bit dull.. It might be cool to see sonic have to go back to his homeworld to deal with a problem involving knuckles?
from Warcraft, Detective Pikachu, Sonic the Hedgehog and you can even include the success of Netflix's Castlevania there seems to be an upswing of really entertaining Video Game Adaptations to film and seems the trend could continue.
He's totally right about this film being like 'Sonic Origins' and yes I really hope there will be a sequel. But I think they are just letting the success and outcome of the movie to pass first.
Please, Jeff Fowler! Please make the sequel happen! Please! We want to see what happens next!😍
"In the game he's just a blue hedgehog"
Did this guy play like Sonic 1 and then pretended the rest didn't exist?
I hope it will be Jason Griffith voice role as Shadow the Hedgehog.
SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 3 (DECEMBER 20, 2024) WILL BE STUPENDOUS!!
This sonic movie was the TRUTH!Dr. Robotnik gotta gain weight like the suit Martin lawrence used in the big mama movies but made into an egg shape and meet knuckles in the Mushroom hill zone laid back jamming to music baby sitting animals and trick him him into thinking sonic his enemy so he can steal the giant emerald from his floating island and put Knuckles through a lot of speed test cause he have the speed power similar to Sonic's to try and steal his power and help him get back to earth from the Mushroom hill zone and create a speed warping machine with Knuckles powering it from his speed,from there he gets knuckles to help him bully and try to capture Sonic on Earth.I hope they make him like the original Knuckles that was able to run as fast as sonic does instead of how they made him on the newer sonic game.Knuckles should be the missing character from the clan that came searching for sonic in the beginning of the movie making him born with the fast running ability like sonic that suppose to be the god like blood line hero for his tribe, but knuckles runs away with it and falls in love with a floating paradise island and finds a huge beautiful Gem that becomes his treasure and trying to steal it makes the island descend so he feels the need to become his most prized possession and protector and don't want it to fall to earth so people won't steal his Emerald or paradise.Just wanted to throw some ideas in there since i know a little bit about sonic and was fan growing up off the video games
They left it open with the end credit scene
There are at least 200,000,000 reasons for there to be a sequel right now.
Can't wait for that sequal! Already seen the movie twice and loved it both times.
IT'S ONLY BEEN OUT A WEEK AND WE ALREADY GOT I SEQUEL COMING OUR WAY!
Well I don't want them to rush. I want the sequel to be good and maybe even better than the first.
Flow Plex definitely better than the first
Jeff Fowler , not the hero we deserve but the one we need
This is a short but awesome little interview!
Great Great job on SONIC!!
Please Jeff, give us the sonic cinematic universe
Luis Medina better idea: sega universe (we did get the new sega intro so)
@@saiishot I like it
Metal Sonic for the sequel!!!
please let there be a sequel with metal sonic as the badguy or have it be like sonic 2 where there's a metal sonic but he's not like THE metal sonic we all know from CD until he's perfected, I can't wait to see Tails either he looked amazing in the post credits scene
The Mushroom Planet Robotnik ended up in is a reference to Mushroom Hill Zone from Sonic & Knuckles. Also, at the beginning of the movie, Sonic’s home planet is invaded by echidnas and this is emphasized even more when Tails goes looking for him. So, I believe that not only is Tails going to be a central character but also Knuckles. I just wonder if they will follow the story from the games and introduce the Chaos Emeralds and the Death Egg? It’s a origins movie so following along the Genesis games first would make sense.
Erick Suarez imagine putting so much effort into a comment just to get it lost in comments
sai. It’s not so lost in comments when you replied.
Erick Suarez then how did nobody else find it
sai. Well, you seem to have liked it because you’re so concerned about it.
Erick Suarez r/woosh
Big pros to the Director that will be awesome make a storyline based Sonic 3 and Knuckles 🤙🏼
I have an idea on how the sequel could be made and what additional elements could be introduced. At least one other sonic character could be introduced (and that's enough for them to make a whole movie on), such as one of the (sonic) girls who would be a love interest and could play a princess role.
I would love to see a sequel and I know LOTS of others would too. You can search on RUclips for "Sonic movie audience reaction tails" and there is a list of FORTY FIVE videos where Tails is revealed at the end and the entire audiences scream to the tops of their lungs with excitement.
If you respect the fans, the fans will respect you... And make your movie a massive success too
This is the best movie best on a game ever
Come on, of course it's getting a sequel!
I want some freaking love for my boy SHADOW! But I still Loved this movie
I hope he does the sequel..many times a sequel does happen but the studio changes directors...we need this guy back since he listen to the fans that didn't like Sonic's original look
Can't wait for the sequel 😍 Already watched #SonicMovie 4 times in Cinema! Might gone for the 5th this weekend.
😃🥰 definitely needs a sequel
Next movie should be a Knuckles movie where they fight Eggman, and then a Tails movie acting as a quasi sequel to the first movie with Eggman resurfacing. Then an Avengers style movie with Sonic Tails and Knuckles facing off against Chaos!!! 😁😆🤣
Imma be honest, I wasn’t about this movie at first but after watching it, I reaaaaaaally want a sequel. It wasn’t perfect but it was so fun and amazing, really loved the take on Sonic this time around.
This man didn't direct a film for 14 years and then dropped this on us... a legend
So way past cool I love how he embraces sonic and the movie hope he makes a sequel happen one day 😆😊😇😎👍💙🔵💨
It would be totally awesome if the sequel introduced Chaos and Metal Sonic.
Metal sonic villain would be dope in a film
Now if we can also get Crush 40 to make the theme song for the second movie!!
We did it!
I seriously think Devs and Studio execs were that stupid in "making sonic more realistic in a human world". After Pikachu's success they would've liked to do it more like that. Lucky that the fans stepped in or Baby Sonic could've been a Kronan baby.
Im so keen for a sequel.
"ROCK-CONNAISSANCE!!"
In the sequel don't forget to put more sonic theme and Easter egg
*SPOILERS*
In the Pre-Credits Robotnik says he will be back at Christmas and the Emd Credits scene Tails would appear so ther is quite a high chance for a sequel
Everyone is talking about the sequel, but i'm just here thinking about the 3rd movie.
-Ark
-Shadow
-Maria
-Gun
-I have an announcement to make-
The 3rd movie should be about knuckles imo. Or it should show all of Sonic's classic friends (Tails, Knuckles, and maybe Amy?) going on an adventure to battle Robotnik.
I got a sonic movie ad how cool
I hope Neal Mcdonough gets a chance to use his talents in the next one if he comes back, i got my hopes up after seeing him in the trailer
HEY JEFF! I SAW THE ENDING ARE YOU GONG TO MAKE A 2ND PART!IF YOU ARE ,ME AND MY SISTER WANT TO BE IN IT!!!
I haven't seen the movie... But it would be a funny idea if at the end Robotnik gets stressed so he begins eating and losing hair, so he ends up like in the games
5% of the comments:THANK YOU FOR THE REDESIGN
15% of the comments: Ooh yass sequel! It should have (x) character(s)!
80% of the comments: hE's JuSt A bLuE hEDgEhOg?!?!?! 😤😤😤
Yes, please.
Let’s hope
So that's THE guy
Tabitha St. Germaine to Voice Rouge the bat for Sonic 2: Return to Mobius, who’s with me?
I know that the second movie is gonna come out before Christmas because at the end of the movie,doctor eggman said that he will return to earth before Christmas
Shadow spinoff, thank you ♥️
Sonic 2 can be sonic adventure dx made in the year 2,022 or 2,023. Sonic 3 can be sonic adventure 2 battle made in the year 2,025 or 2,026. Sonic 4 can be sonic heros all with Jim Carrey as Dr Robotnik. Dr Robotnik should create metal sonic along w scratch & grounder. Knuckles & others need to have good hip hop songs like this movie gave us. Wiz khalifa speed me up is awesome as hell. Sonic 2,020 is awesome as hell.
