Not amazing, but much better considering what it was before.

don't know why they bothered, nobody's still gonna see the movie


Ironically the movie was originally scheduled to come out during the holidays and probably would have pulled in a decent number of parents taking their little kids who didn't know any better. Now to appease fans, they changed the design but pushed the movie out into late winter when it won't have the advantage of everybody having off and will probably do much worse.

People are allowed to make fun of things, but harassing film makers and forcing them to change their visions for the sake of a few disgruntled fans is not a good precedent to set.

Who the fuck cares about respecting them? They did a horrible job and rightly got called out for it. No one was forcing them to redesign Sonic after the backlash; they could have went ahead with their original plan, but they themselves chose to rework it because they wanted to win over fans.

You know damn well that had there not been tons of memes and had it not been all over the internet they would've have felt pressure to change the design.

Except it wasn't just a few fans; the Internet as a whole laughed at the first design and turned it into a meme. If your vision is widely agreed to suck ass, it's wise to change it, especially when it's for such a widely known character that you had no part inventing in the first place.

I agree!

Still pisses me off

You literally need to composite/render/lighting pretty much every frame with the new sonic character again

Do you know how much work needs to be done?

And for what? Because of gamers feelings were hurt???? Fuck that

Rumor has it the "artistic vision" of the original design was because if they changed it enough from the base they could keep all the toy sale profits and wouldn't owe any to SEGA.

So if a bunch of people dislike something you make and you decide to change it as a result, you were "forced" to change it? No, ultimately, you had the choice of changing it. It doesn't matter if you felt pressure to change it; you still didn't have to change it if you didn't want to. Whether or not you felt pressure has nothing to do with other people; they have the right to express their opinions, and it's only on you if you decide to listen to them.

Don't blame the fans for expressing their opinions; blame the director or executive who decided to listen to them.

Oh, stuff that. The movie is a product made to sell tickets. This isn't some passion project made by film students that first aired at Sundance. It's a corporate creation designed to squeeze money out of video game nerds and furries. You know how I know? If it were a passion project made by fans of Sonic, the first design wouldn't have been such a meme-making disaster.

They're not gonna change the shoes after getting them licensed. I also doubt they'd completely change the body type since that would force them to completely reanimate every scene he was in.

You guys act like people were sending death threats to individual vfx designers on the film.

The studio doing a sonic movie in part because of arguably one of the most obsessive and rabid fan bases. So don't put out your VERY different interpretation of the character to the world and expect zero criticism.

By your logic, movie makers should just do whatever the fuck they want without taking anyone else into consideration. That's a very dumb argument, especially when it involves a character as iconic as Sonic. This movie needs to make money, and it'll certainly need to win over fans to do that.

Sonic isn't complete. He still has blue hairy arms. They need to spend more to make the experience worthwhile. Jim Carey is sweating right now. He probably had to pig out and redo his scenes as well.

Who said it would be "objectively bad garbage"? The only thing that's getting changed are the dimensions of the CGI character -- the writing, voice acting, videography, etc. aren't being changed. It's one insignificant aspect of the film.

And if you're the kind of person who can't appreciate schlock or fun, then you probably don't have a foot to stand on when it comes to discussing art and you're taking yourself way too seriously.
ex. super mario bros. movie was a fun, post apocalyptic film that wasn't very accurate to its source material. garbage pail kids was unintentionally funny and had some awesome costuming and special effects.
I'm sure there'd be redeeming qualities to the film regardless, and changing the dimensions of the character isn't going to magically change everything else about the film.
