Lucas

A Cinemascore as expected

oh that is a rough average rating

Since RT is gonna RT there's no way to see how many reviews have come in so far.

So far bottom 5 Illumination scores on MetaCritic.

down to 48 now.

keeps going

Let's say a very even start.

ouch

Looks fire

Fucking impossible to believe this by now until actual writers are announced and they're rolling the cameras. Also don't bother.

Since this is clearly staying in the 90s on RT that means Affleck's entire directorial filmography is up there... except Live by Night at 34% lol

Here's Mario's Critics' Choice score (so far) compared to most of the other Illumination movies.

I was definitely expecting more than this, curious. But judging by letterboxd it seems like a ton of the big critics haven't even seen it yet.

Germain Lussier seems to agree with everything I said, but he said it a lot more efficiently lol.

I was not a fan of the first Sonic movie, I thought it was absurdly generic and didn't get a laugh out of me once. But I got more out of the sequel, I don't know if I thought it was downright good, but it was very watchable and mostly pretty fun. In comparison to Mario I would put it along with the first, and that's based on what I remember since I haven't seen Sonic 1 since release and I can't claim it was particularly memorable for me. Though visually I like Mario way more, and while I don't like the Brooklyn backstory they go for, I prefer that over taking Sonic out of his own world and putting him in our reality.
