10:50 "The only difference between this and the fast and the furious movies is, one is full of cartoon characters, and the other one is a Sonic movie" 💀💀💀
Keanu has turned down Star Wars and Marvel, but did Sonic. Keanu knows where the future is heading and it’s video game adaptions. Don’t let Borderlands and Halo’s failure.
It feels like yesterday, the entire Internet made fun of Sonic's hideous original character design in the teaser trailer of the first movie. Now, the third film is becoming one of the most anticipated movies of the year with Shadow's introduction.
I’m glad this adaptation is cutting to the chase and having Sonic and co assist G.U.N. I never understood why they thought Sonic was shadow in adventure 2 and arrested Sonic for crimes shadow committed.
If they go there... I mean, the trailer seems to imply they will definitely go there... But you never know how explicit and dark they'd be willing to go.
@@GLIEPNIRThe most I think will likely happen if this movie has a PG rating it would probably have a blaster sound and cut to a black screen where we can’t actually see Maria get shot.

@@dillonohlemiller401 It probably helps they’re slowing letting him have the Robotnik appearance with each progressing film. Carrey had said he was always up for wearing the fat suit, now we’ve finally got it.
@@dillonohlemiller401To be fair, Jim Carrey finally realized that his refusal to do sequels actually made him unreliable in Hollywood. Jim was also open to return as Count Olaf in A Series of Unfortunate Events for Netflix. This is the same Jim who turned down $10 million dollars to star in The Mask 2 and 3 back in the late 90’s.
Ok, so to give a bit more clarification about the game lore & Shadow's backstory: Gerald Robotnik was a researcher & scientist for GUN, and was tasked to develop various projects for GUN. At the same time, his granddaughter, Maria, had some kind of disease called NIDS that we don't fully understand but can deduce was neurological based. So he brings Maria onto this government space station called the ARK to try finding a cure for her, to which Project Shadow was born from. Shadow was created to be "the ultimate lifeform," where he was immune to all disease & is essentially immortal. However, the government either caught wind of Gerald's projects he kept hidden from them or simply wanted to keep people quiet, cause they sent GUN to the ARK to apprehend or wipe out everyone aboard. And as Shadow & Maria were trying to escape, Maria is gunned down by a soldier as she activates Shadow's escape pod & sent down to Earth. Causing him to become rageful against humanity & turn against them.
Let's not forget the other half of this story. Gerald received some extraterrestrial assistance for Project Shadow in the form of the Black Arms Alien Army, specifically their leader Black Doom. Shadow has some of Black Doom's DNA inside him. Gerald created Shadow to fight against the Black Arms once they eventually returned to Earth in an attempt to take it over. Oh, and Gerald is also Eggman Grandfather as well.
@@Rbutler835 Well, I purposely ommited that portion so people could learn that on their own, as I personally suspect that they may try adapting the Black Arms in the film franchise eventually.
As long as i hear "All of you ungrateful humans, who took everything away from me will feel my loss and dispair" on audio loop as a space colony comes huddling towards earth I'll be happy
I have alot of respect for the fans that voiced their complaints about Sonic's look and the studio wisely changed it. Then the ppl came to see the movie.
Here's a rundown for people confused on the animals the characters represent. Sonic, Shadow and Amy are Hedgehogs (Amy most likely isn't in this movie). Tails is a male fox, and I say male because a woman voices him traditionally so people often view him as Sonic's girlfriend when they don't know the lore. Knuckles is an Echidna. They're LIKE hedgehogs but weirder, and apparently highly toxic. Robotnik is a man. A fat, fat man. I only add that because from time to time the movies like to outright call him a robot when he isn't.
Speaking of egg man being referred to as a robot, wasn't he partly cybernetic back in the day? I hope they bring in the OG robotnik, the one that turns people into robots
@@TheEnigmaticBM39in one of the 90s cartoons he did have a robot arm and was dark as hell. This was back in the 90s where Japan and America had differing visions on things. Like the name itself, he was always Eggman in Japan, and America gave him Robotnik to sound more evil to audiences. Then the Dreamcast era and internet came and they just low key combined the names.
Probably bc I've played the games since childhood but I have not once heard someone refer to Tails as Sonic's girlfriend. Not to doubt you but that's insanely funny
@@Swaggernaut_X Robotnik is a real name, it's where the word "Robot" comes from actually and it translates to "Slave"...which is pretty fitting because considering his entire gig is enslaving the planet.
@arnold20139 You "hope" for that? Sonic 3 is going up a prequel no one asked for, and no one cares to see. From where I'm sitting Sonic 3's success is guaranteed.
@DemonicRemption why do people say the term "no one ask for", like that's a bad thing lol. More than 95% of EVERY movie no one ask for. I never ask for Matrix, Starwars, GOT, The Wire, and every childhood 80's movie in my life, lol. I'm happy for them all, but who was asking for any of this entertainment, and who do we ask that will listen if we had that choice? lol it's just an weird thing to say imo
@@DemonicRemption Sonic 2 ended on a cliffhanger hinting at shadow. It's not some random movie they decided to pump out for cash grabs there was always going to be a trilogy
Bit of lore from a sonic fan: - shadow is technically a ninja turtle situation. More of a science experiment rather then a hedgehog from another world - Shadow learned to use chaos emeralds to teleport. Sonic tried it in the game after watching him and pulled it off too. - Gerald robotnik is his grand father and is dead in the game
If I had a dime for every video game property that had both idris elba and keanu reeves I'd have two dimes which isn't much but its still weird that its happened twice.
In sonic lore shadow is created to help cure Gerald robotnicks granddaughter. In the trailer that appears to be her on the other side of the glass and it seems like she dies in that rubble we see.
@@michaelstrong5383 Yeah that should have been the biggest giveaway on who was gonna voice Shadow when those rumors about Hayden Christiansen and Keanu Reeves voicing Shadow were circulating.
Btw he’s effortlessly kicking their asses while having power dampeners. He literally has shackles on. Those rings on his wrists and ankles aren’t jewelry they’re nerfing him… also messed up they got the black one in shackles
Yes actually. Because even if the movie isn’t the best, the fans will still be happy to have moments, and characters they like getting screen time. Like the Mario movie, that not good but tons of fanservice and everybody was happy with it
Idk if this counts but I remember even in sonic x they interviewed the guy who shot her and you even get to see the horror/regret on his face as he recalls what happened 50 years after
Gerald Robotnik is the grandfather of Dr. Ivo Robotnik a.k.a. Dr. Eggman and Maria Robotnik. The latter ends up dying by saving Shadow from being misused by G.U.N. w/ him supposed to be the source of immortality.
Sonic is like Goku or Quicksilver. Tails is Krillin or War Machine. Knuckles is like the Hulk, Piccolo or Roronoa Zoro from One Piece. Shadow is like The Punisher and Vegeta.
I mean at the end of his debut game he redeemed himself and following appearances have him as on the side of good, he just doesn't really like most of the cast
I feel like one of three things will happen in this movie: 1) Eggman helps the Sonic team defeat Shadow. 2) Eggman betrays the Sonic team and Shadow helps them defeat him. 3) Gerald Robotnik betrays everybody and the Sonic team, Eggman, and Shadow have to defeat him.
Used to watch sonic x back in the day this movie trailer feels like just how he is in the show ❤❤ shadow is awesome sometimes he's a villain sometimes he's an anti hero depending on the concept
I'm so excited to see Sonic Adventure 2 adapted into a movie. I wonder how far they're going to go with it. I can see them bringing in Chaos from the first Sonic Adventure game as the big villain of the next movie. Just thinking about how the final boss battles from these games went, the scale of the final boss of the first one would work really well with the movie universe they've created. Metal Sonic can come in for Sonic 5 and 6 to finish the anthology. I never thought we'd go from Ugly Sonic to this, I'm here for it.
Fun fact about Maria's death. The anime had the soldier racked with guilt and orginally didnt want to shoot her. In the games, the gun agent tracked them down and shot her in the back with no hesitation.
Aftermath of watching that trailer, I’m so super hyped to watch that movie but unfortunately, I have to work around Christmastime. Sometime soon, I’ll be able to see it.
I’m so glad Jim Carrey came back to play Dr. Ivo Robotnik aka Dr Eggman again. He said he was going to retire, but he obviously loves playing Dr Eggman. Since this movie is based on Sonic Adventure 2, I can’t wait to see Sonic and Shadow go Super in the movie!😊👊🏾🔥💛🌟
Jim Carrey must also like working with the makers of these films as well. I don't think he would've came back if he wasn't on good terms with the production crew. Having a good working environment on set makes a world of difference.
My hope is that with essentially two Robotnik's on screen we get a silly evil version being Eggman, and an EVIL evil version being Gerald. In the games (at least according to Adventure 2), he is also driven mad due to you know who's death, and where Sonic is keeping Shadow on his toes, Gerald is festering on his hatred of the people who wronged him.
Ok so talking about Shadow’s past. According to the Sonic game lore Shadow was created by Gerald Robotnik who in the games is Dr. Eggman’s grandfather and Shadow was created as the ultimate life form. And the only reason why he was created was because Gerald’s grandaughter Maria who is Dr. Eggman’s cousin, had a disease that was incurable and Gerald Robotnik created Shadow through genetic mutation in order to help cure Maria from that disease. And throughout there time together Shadow & Maria formed a strong bond. Unfortunately, the government deemed Shadow a threat & the military organization GUN (Guardians of United Nations) were seizing the project involving Shadow being created and unfortunately throughout the raid Shadow tried to protect Maria but instead Maria protects Shadow by helping him escape from Space Colony ARK which is where Shadow was created & Maria sacrificed herself saving Shadow. And throughout that whole ordeal Shadow made a promise to Maria to protect the world & the humans because Shadow & Maria were both raised in space on the Space Colony ARK and Maria has always wanted to visit the planet Earth and wants to give a chance to be happy and at peace. And that’s the promise they both made to each other. Despite escaping Shadow has stayed in suspended animation for 50 years which leads to his debut into the Sonic franchise with the game Sonic Adventure 2. Throughout the franchise Shadow has been considered to be an antihero & while he has good intentions, he will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, sometimes putting him at odds with Sonic. And Shadow is definitely one of my favorite anti hero characters of all time. And it’s a crazy coincidence because 4 years ago in the first movie we saw the couple watching Speed and now here we are 4 years later the star of Speed Keanu Reeves voicing Shadow The Hedgehog. I hope that this movie is as good as the previous ones or probably even better. Let’s see what happens. Oh and in the 2005 self titled Shadow The Hedgehog game while it’s not a good game it’s a very interesting one because it goes deeper into Shadow’s past and main threat in that game was somehow involved with Project Shadow. So yeah, let’s see what happens.
I like Sonic lore so much. It's complex yet really simple. It's deep and deals with a lot of complex topics and issues, yet it's also cartoony and simple to explain. It's this contrast of what at first seems like just a silly guy doing silly things, but then when you learn why he's like that its like "woah, I didn't know it was so deep and meaningful".
I gotta be real.. Keanu as Shadow is absolutley flawless casting. A bit of the valley-boy 2edgey cornyness he brings to the VO is perfect. I haven't seen any of these movies but just hearing him do his thing is nice. It works.
Also only 3 enemies become allies. Knuckles becomes a friend. Shadow becomes an anti-hero. Silver becomes a friend but you don't see him a whole lot. There's Blaze. But she was never a villain. Actually, neither was Knuckles. But Blaze specifically was more like a rival. Most of his friends are just friends.
I still think the "original design" the studio went with was one of the best marketing strategies I've seen in a while. I have a feeling it was a setup to get people to rally and united to see the film.
Sonic and Mario are all fine and dandy. But, really want to see a live-action Metroid movie. And, if at all possible, a feature length, traditional, 2D animated Legend of Zelda movie.
It’s great to see the moviemakers giving Dr. Robotnik a redemption arc because everybody knows Jim Carrey is outspoken about gun control in the United States. This may be Jim Carrey’s final movie appearance.
I love that Sonic Adventure 2 makes it's original impact all over again. Everyone on the internet is super excited to get this movie to gross a billion dollars, Jim Carrey ended his retirement for this movie and THE Keanu Reeves actually signed on to do a "real" animated movie role instead of the tenth iteration of John Wick or something.
The less Tom the better. He only existed because they wanted to put Sonic in the real world and give Sonic someone to talk to as he adjusts to the real world Real reason anybody comes for these movies are for Sonic characters
I really like both of them the second one was dope asl and the knuckles series is well made. I’m glad they pivoted and listened to the fans with Sonic’s design

It was the cinematic equivalent of switching out Joe with Kamala. Just an immensely good decision, which is shocking in Hollywood today.

Unfortunately, the government deemed Shadow a threat & the military organization GUN (Guardians of United Nations) were seizing the project involving Shadow being created and unfortunately throughout the raid Shadow tried to protect Maria but instead Maria protects Shadow by helping him escape from Space Colony ARK which is where Shadow was created & Maria sacrificed herself saving Shadow. And throughout that whole ordeal Shadow made a promise to Maria to protect the world & the humans because Shadow & Maria were both raised in space on the Space Colony ARK and Maria has always wanted to visit the planet Earth and wants to give a chance to be happy and at peace. And that’s the promise they both made to each other. Despite escaping Shadow has stayed in suspended animation for 50 years which leads to his debut into the Sonic franchise with the game Sonic Adventure 2. Throughout the franchise Shadow has been considered to be an antihero & while he has good intentions, he will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, sometimes putting him at odds with Sonic. And Shadow is definitely one of my favorite anti hero characters of all time. And it’s a crazy coincidence because 4 years ago in the first movie we saw the couple watching Speed and now here we are 4 years later the star of Speed Keanu Reeves voicing Shadow The Hedgehog. I hope that this movie is as good as the previous ones or probably even better. Let’s see what happens. Oh and in the 2005 self titled Shadow The Hedgehog game while it’s not a good game it’s a very interesting one because it goes deeper into Shadow’s past and main threat in that game was somehow involved with Project Shadow. So yeah, let’s see what happens.
I’ll be watching this third Sonic movie for Shadow. Happy to see you reviewing this Sonic 3 trailer
Gerald created Shadow yes
I like Sonic lore so much. It's complex yet really simple. It's deep and deals with a lot of complex topics and issues, yet it's also cartoony and simple to explain. It's this contrast of what at first seems like just a silly guy doing silly things, but then when you learn why he's like that its like "woah, I didn't know it was so deep and meaningful".
Archie Sonic, Shadow, metal/mecha Sonic, Silver these are all very interesting characters.
The bloopers are really good from the first movie
Shadow packed up Knuckles also what is his Beef with Tails?
It don’t gotta be personal with Shadow, he whoop ass just because😂😂😂
I gotta be real..
Keanu as Shadow is absolutley flawless casting. A bit of the valley-boy 2edgey cornyness he brings to the VO is perfect. I haven't seen any of these movies but just hearing him do his thing is nice. It works.
Also only 3 enemies become allies.
Knuckles becomes a friend.
Shadow becomes an anti-hero.
Silver becomes a friend but you don't see him a whole lot.
There's Blaze. But she was never a villain. Actually, neither was Knuckles. But Blaze specifically was more like a rival.
Most of his friends are just friends.
Gerald is Robotnik’s grandfather not father
Sonic is getting "Dark" and is starting to become the best video game to big screen adaptation since the first Mortal Combat .
Kombat*
I’m ready for that 😂
Shadow looks so awesome
i really hope they do shadow justice in this movie, he is the most dark and complicated character in the sonic universe.
@0:36 The pose got me! 😂😂😂😂
Both Sonic and John Wick series are under Paramount so Keanu Reeves jumping from franchise to franchise. He’s gonna be on Yellowstone next lmao JK
John Wick is owned by Lionsgate
@@LARKXHIN you can stream all John Wick movies on paramount+ just like the Sonic movies.
I still think the "original design" the studio went with was one of the best marketing strategies I've seen in a while. I have a feeling it was a setup to get people to rally and united to see the film.
2 Jim Carreys is comedic genius!
once shadow hit that Vegeta kick it was a wrap, he's my favorite 😅
Vegeta kick and akira motorcycle slide
Sonic and Mario are all fine and dandy. But, really want to see a live-action Metroid movie. And, if at all possible, a feature length, traditional, 2D animated Legend of Zelda movie.
Gerald Robotnik is the creator of Shadow. I'm too hype for this movie
I love Keanu Reeves, hype for this masterpiece performance, 15 year old me is hype
Shits about to get deep. Sonic turning PG 13
The only way to top the Shadow hype is to have Sonic and friends go to the city of CWCVille and take down Sonichu.
Sonic Adventure 2 came out when I was 11 years old. I cannot WAIT for this movie.
1994: Sonic 3 & Knuckles
2024: Sonic 3 & Knuckles
I'm calling it now Sonic 3 will be the best out of the trilogy
“Shiiit I didn’t know they went THAT dark in this series” That barely even touches the surface buddy
Gerald is robotniks grandfather not father lol
The next movie is definitely gonna introduce Silver.
Slight correction: Gerald Robotnik is the grandfather of Ivo Robotnik (Eggman), not his father. He IS however, the technical father of Shadow
Yeah after the 2nd movie I'm stoked for this film. I love how much the creators clearly love the Sonic franchise.
15:46 not gonna lie I got triggered lol. Thank god that email came
Me to it's so frustrating watching them talk about these movies
Forget the MCU. Now we're in the Sonic Cinematic Universe.
jim carrey is a gift - even if he truly stops acting, i hope he continues to be a force
14:57 funny you say that . Vector after Shadow says i should have never been created. Vector goes "DON'T GO THERE!..... YET!"
It’s great to see the moviemakers giving Dr. Robotnik a redemption arc because everybody knows Jim Carrey is outspoken about gun control in the United States. This may be Jim Carrey’s final movie appearance.
We dont care about none of that. That was 10 yrs ago😂
Getting Keanu and Jim in your movie is the biggest flex ever
Two of my FAVORITE childhood LEGENDS!!! ❤
I love that Sonic Adventure 2 makes it's original impact all over again.
Everyone on the internet is super excited to get this movie to gross a billion dollars, Jim Carrey ended his retirement for this movie and THE Keanu Reeves actually signed on to do a "real" animated movie role instead of the tenth iteration of John Wick or something.
it probably wont get a billion. At most it will surpass the 2nd movie but thats not likely either
The less Tom the better. He only existed because they wanted to put Sonic in the real world and give Sonic someone to talk to as he adjusts to the real world
Real reason anybody comes for these movies are for Sonic characters
R.I.P. Mufasa...
He sounds just like John Wick 😂😂😂😂😂
I really like both of them the second one was dope asl and the knuckles series is well made. I’m glad they pivoted and listened to the fans with Sonic’s design
The knuckles series is 🗑️
Man Keanu sounds perfect to be honest. Judging by the trailer.
