It’ll be fun to see if the trailer for this movie receives the kind of backlash that the Will Smith Genie reveal received. 

I’d laugh if it were something like TMNT 2014, where the bad word of mouth was shut the moment the first trailer dropped and the designs were revealed.

Someone who claims to have seen the test screening did a whole AMA on Reddit but deleted it later. Someone made a summary Thoughts? (I want Jim Carrey in a fatsuit and a game-accurate costume throughout the entire movie. I hope it's fake.)

 

Edit: Also, the summary didn't mention it, but Sonic apparently

. That will obviously be the litmus test for whether this guy delivered the goods.

Yep. That sounds decent.

 

Sounds like most of the buzz will go the way of TMNT, Emoji Movie, and She-Ra. “Fanboys” will be upset until the movie comes out and they’re reminded that they’re way too old and it’s far too embarrassing to get upset about stuff created for small children 30 years ago.

 

The people on that Reddit page even seem to like it.

That's because I linked you to the Sonic Movie subreddit

What a year this is going to be for video game movies!

[Boxofficerules]

If this movie sucks, are Sonic fans going to mace people that work at the theaters?

when I worked in a cinema, a gypsy once tried to fight me because I instructed him to stop disturbing other customers and stay quiet while the film was playing.

If Sonic fans aren’t used to disappointment in 2019 then something is very wrong.

[stealthyfrog]

Just learned that the director, Jeff Fowler, has never directed a theatrical film before now. What a way to start a career, huh?

[JGAR4LIFE]

Tails and Knuckles aren’t this??

 

Pfff $70M WW

It’s not as bad as I thought it was but I kind of like the rumored plot, it’s sounds like stupid fun.

Yeah. I won't mind if the Sonic movie turns out to be a "turn off your brain" kids movie like the rumor suggests. The redesign for Sonic is what bothers me. I wouldn't even mind if they

save Eggman's game-accurate design until the post-credits scene.

Don't get my hopes up for something that might not happen

[RaidensSword]

I didn't even know this was being made. I would have preferred a CGI movie in Wreck it Ralph style, the standard Sonic design works in that world. I'm intrigued to see the trailer for this... 

[stealthyfrog]

Dora comes out three months before Sonic, so Paramount definitely made the right call by debuting Dora tonight instead of Sonic, but man, I just want to see this monstrosity in motion.
