Reddroast Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 I think people don't know that the director Jeff Fowler worked on Sonic 06. He has seen how mad they can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But who is saying this will be the last film? The producers have made it clear they fully intend to keep going after this, and I doubt it's going to flop so bad to make them cancel everything. And how does one even do no Maria death? Studios have done implied, and even non-graphic on-screen deaths by gunshot wounds and explosions in other PG-rated films (Spider-Verse, Big Hero 6, even the first Sonic movie had the implied deaths of a near-entire echidna tribe and the owl mom). I'm certainly not trying to be rude or argumentative, but I think you're tremendously off-base on this. It's way riskier for the movie to veer into a wildly different direction with a character's origin story (Hell, the whole foundation of the character) than to just stick with it. Kids have played these games, they know the character, they know what's coming. The creatives might make some alterations, they might have it just be implied, but based on how they've been true to the source material so far, it's very likely going to happen.

WebSurfer Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Curious to know how they’ll handle Jim Carey after this film. This may indeed by his last one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They clearly like the character based on all the screaming they did in the theater at the end of the last one, so it’s fair to say that they probably know the backstory. I think my point still largely stands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WittyUsername Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 (edited) Shadow is definitely a bigger character than Tails and Knuckles. I don’t know how much his presence alone would move the needle, but if they’re banking on people’s nostalgia for Sonic Adventure 2, then that would be something to keep an eye on.

MightyDargon Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Shadow is a big deal even if the exact plot of Sonic Adventure 2 isn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
