I remember getting the Shadow The Hedgehog game when I was 7 and thinking it was the coolest fucking shit ever. I'll pre-order tickets to whenever Paramount gets around to making that, pull a Joker with it.

Shadow and Sonic Unleashed were two of my most played games on my PS2. I even bought Sonic Unleashed again on the Wii and was my favourite game ever for a long time (until I played Super Mario Galaxy 2 which is still one of my favourites).

I had an unhealthy Sonic obsession as a child, my first ever email address was Sonic-related too lol. Used to play Sonic Riders, Sonic Heroes, Sonic Rivals 1/2, Shadow, and Sonic Battle religiously, and even had some of Sonic X on DVD

I played a lot of Sonic Adventures 1 and 2 and Sonic Heroes on an emulator on my PC after I started to really love the character. I also played a lot of Sonic Colors on my Wii (still probably my favourite Sonic game). The last few 3d Sonic games really killed my excitement for anything Sonic related (Sonic Mania was fun too but it was made for more old school Sonic fans than me).

I watched Sonic X and loved Sonic Colors on my DS as a kid.

From the tracking thread it seems like this is gonna beak out, I think sonic is a lot more popular then some people think.

They’ll probably be surprised by the possibility of how high it’ll breakout.

That is probably because they fear spoilers.

They should've just used this song for the movie instead of that awful song they got rn:

 

 

Edit: The video just reminded me of all the really awesome levels in the game. I guess it's time I play the game again.

I hope paramount is seriously lowballing because they expect a breakout. After BoP fiasco, officially setting a lower goal is better and then claim exceeded expectations.

I don’t know. I’ve listened to Speed Me Up a few times and it’s gotten more memorable for me to sing. It’s much better than Shell Shocked.

There's no competition between the two. Successful video game movies are a win for all and the genre.

It's certainly better than Akon's track for Sonic 06 (no really, that happened)

If it opens at the $60m-$70m that pre-sales are pointing in, it will have a strong shot at crossing $200m DOM.

 

Considering both Ownard and Mulan are locked for it, we may have 4 movies crossing the $200m mark in just 3 months, incredible!

presales are pointing to a 60 m 4 day. A 45-50m 3 day OW.
