I can’t believe that was ever real. I saw the movie and there’s just no way they animated all of that with such a horrible design, and then went back and redid everything.
He’s in almost every shot of the film.

I mean, it’s not like they manually sculpted him every scene. They probably referenced a 3D model file. Swap that out and do some touch ups and you’re golden

I still like to believe that was a marketing gimmick to get people to spread the word about the movie and that they never actually intended to use that design because all publicity is good publicity. But knowing the fact it’s Paramount, I wouldn’t be surprised in the slightest if they actually thought that was a good design.

I’ll say, after a decade or more of the Sonic property languishing in bad game after bad game…
Fuck, thank goodness these guys got their hands on the property so at least we got some fun movies out of it and people freaking out over the reveal of Shadow with a gun. Possibly the only time you might ever be happy seeing “He has a gun” trending online.

I wonder if we are going to get Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie: The Game.
If we ever do, then someone needs to mod in first trailer Sonic in.

I wonder if the franchise would’ve survived with ugly sonic. Also, does this count as “a good video game movie”? I thought those didn’t exist.

Oh wow, I totally forgot about ugly sonic!

I’m pretty confident that was clever viral marketing.
