    What a fantastic milestone! I can't express enough gratitude for the chance I had to connect with Reeves just last week via Radiant Reservation. His genuine engagement with his fans left me in awe; his down-to-earth demeanor is truly remarkable.

      Back in 2023, I caught an interview on E-news where Reeves discussed his encounters with dedicated fans. Captivated by the conversation, I delved into some research and discovered an exclusive fan club through Radiant Reservation. As a member, there's an opportunity to meet him as Reeves dedicates time at the end of each month to connect with active club members.

It's Shadow's big-screen debut and they're clearly not messing around if they're gunning for someone as high-profile as Keanu Reeves.

    This early on, it's certainly difficult to guess how much of SA2's story will be adapted into the film. But I'd wager it's got a better chance of being more faithful to SA2 than the previous films were to previous games simply because of the more "realistic" setting of SA2.
    What's more, I think it's entirely possible we could see the Space Colony ARK despite the fact that the last film didn't feature locations like the Death Egg. Aside from the fact that the Death Egg is an obvious ripoff/homage to the Death Star from Star Wars and couldn't be taken seriously as a threat, having the Death Egg in Sonic 2 and then following it up with the ARK in Sonic 3 would be seen as insanely repetitive.
    Therefore, leaving the Death Egg out as a location makes sense if they were planning on adapting SA2's story this entire time. Only time will tell how close it is to the game though.

    My only real concern with this 3rd Sonic movie is the potential for it to get bogged down with too many characters and plotlines, especially if they include Amy and Rouge. This could work if they lessen the roles of the human side characters, (Donut Lord, etc.), but if they have to have them be a major focus, I feel Rouge, Amy, or even Tails might have less of a role in this movie if they go that route.

    geez, Keanu himself knows a feels of loss better than many, and also Keanu is a fan of motorcycles, i'm really had no doubt he is the best choice, especially since his natural voice is already grumpy, so he doesn't have to croak his voice, he'll already sound like a figurative combination of Shadow, a perfect combination, that's why i almost prayed for him to be Shadow, and i was very glad to know he IS Shadow

    See, the thing with Movie 2 was that it could get away with making major adjustments because those games aren't exactly story focused. Sonic 2 is just stop Eggman just with Tails with you, and Sonic 3 was just stop Eggman with Knuckles against you. Angel Island is a core area, but it doesn't contribute anything really story wise. Same with the Death Egg. We still got the Death Egg Robot.
    Maria getting shot would need to happen because that's what fuels his anger. The loss of his family. They don't need to show the bullet flying through her, but the event needs to happen. Rouge also needs to be there to help pull him back, and Amy needs to be there to snap him out of it. There's more overall story importance in SA2. You can get rid of Angel Island, but you can't remove the Ark.

    • @Cloud-dt6xb
      @Cloud-dt6xb 6 місяців тому +2

      He is correct in that this movie does'nt need to be a 1 to 1 adapation of Sonic Adventure 2, they can even move roles meant for Amy and Rouge onto other charachters so long as it makes sense. Honestly Tails could fill Amy's role of being the one to talk Shadow down and Rouge's when it comes to finding out the background of Shadow and the colony. There's going to be alot of charachters in this movie already plus needing to introduce Shadow into the mix. Not to say this is for sure what will happen and it's very likely they decided to take on that challenge to introduce one or both of those girls movie's already in post production after all.
      However Maria's death is not just a throwaway thing but the core reason for why Shadow hates humans so much that he set's the whole plan in motion to wipe them out. The impact of that NEEDS to be left intact and I'm sure the writers and Jeff Fowler will have understood that. The connection between him and Maria matters to his choices as a villian but also explains why he'd switch sides as well.

    People getting worried about him not being the right pick need to chill tf out.

Sonics VA isn’t like the current one, and he’s a bit corny at times, but the performance itself is good. Even the new characters they created for this series like Tom and Agent Stone are well-liked.

    I think the ARK is a true possibility because we do have Alyla Browne as Maria, which means we will see some version of Shadow's backstory in Sonic 3, and Shadow's backstory takes place over 50 years ago when he was living in that space colony with her and Gerald Robotnik. It doesn't bother me that Paramount chose Keanu Reeves, I was hoping that they could manage to bring back David Humphrey, but I do believe that Keanu Reeves is a good choice. I just really hope that Shadow will get justice in Sonic 3 by acting like the emotionally sympathetic antagonist that he was in SA2 instead of being an annoying gun shooting, and swearing edgeloard who can't have any friends! He's been mistaken to be that for too many years, and I 'm fed-up with it, so may the Ultimate Lifeform get justice by being shown hating guns in that movie because one of them was used to kill Maria and use his unique Chaos abilities in battle scenes instead of doing bullet shooting!!!! The G.U.N. military agents should be the characters who will use loaded guns in Sonic 3, NOT Shadow!

    I agree with what you said about Knuckles. Despite being shafted in some games with his dialogue reducing him to a meathead with no brains, he’s my favourite character. Of course, with a professional A list actor and real film screenwriters, it was going to be pretty hard to NOT make this the best interpretation of Knuckles, and imo thats exactly what happened. his tone, personality, flaws and strengths were all so well done.

  • @DangerousArmyGuy

    I'm hoping we get Amy and Rouge too, especially Amy. I don't want her replaced again in redeeming Shadow at all. And it's feeling like a "boys only club" RN without Amy too. Plus, if they wanna do Shadow justice for real, they need him to be like Game Shadow where no human can redeem Shadow at all. Only someone specifically NOT human but like Maria can do that. And Amy fits Maria to a T while specifically being NOT human at all. And Amy could have grown up in Japan like Sonic did in America. Both as a parallel to Sonic, and help bring the Sonic series' Japanese side to us in the west. Besides, Amy's very character is full of Japanese tropes, she's a Genki girl full of the eastern kind of love tropes after all. And she could copy Japanese magical girls like Sonic copied western superheroes. Amy was based off Sailor Moon and Cardcaptor Sakura after all. So if we can get the west to see how Amy's based off Japanese tropes, I think that could really help her in the Sonic fandom. We got Knuckles done justice, so Amy can be done justice alongside Shadow too.

    I didn't have any major preference for who should play Shadow, but Keanu and the rumored actors were good picks.
    I've heard people say a legacy actor like Jason Griffith should play him, but while I like the legacy actors, I feel like it's just weird to have legacy actors in an adaptation that isn't majorly legacy actors. Colleen being Tails, while a great performance, did feel somewhat distracting to me given she was the only actor to be in both the games and the movie. It'd be like if in the Mario movie, rather than Charles Martinet cameoing as the brothers' dad, he played Luigi while everyone else is new actors.

    1. shadows growth cycle was probably accelerated as is common with experimentation of this nature. I would be super surprised if it wasn't
    2. More importantly he was UNCONSIOUS for those 50 years. Oh sure his body is 50+ but every one seems to forget that his mind isn't!

    I presonally think, that this will be a actually dangerous shadow. A shadow that would destroy humanity over a loss. A shadow that might be scarier then robotnik. Definitely, more intense then robotnik.A shadow ready to destroy everything and everyone sonic loves to avenge Maria.
    I wonder if he'll give shadow this type of intensity with Maria.

    I need to hear it through paramount if keanu is really going to be shadow. Because I can't picture him has shadow. I just looked up some of the stuff he played in voice acting, the closet I can possiby hear shadow is "Duke" from toy story 4, when he was talking about his back story. I need to see the trailer however, so I'm just giving my speculation

    I believe the film goers are going to make it similar to Scott Pilgrim takes off even though that had similar adaptations, they pacifically wanted to remove expectations. They wanted to go in the opposite direction and with the leak animatic. That I believe is probably real. This is going to be a time travel plot. And I'm gonna leave it at that.

    I never understood why people wanted hayden christensen as shadow. He's not even a good choice.
    Robert patterson or literally any batman actor would've done a great job.
    But there's one actor who's been fancasted for the role for a pretty long time ever since shadow appeared in the end credits of sonic 2. The most popular choice for the character. And that's keanu reeves! The reason they went with keanu is because they're not trying to get a voice for shadow that sounds exactly like shadow in the games. You can't expect for movie shadow to sound exactly like previous versions of shadow because this is most likely gonna be a different version of the character. Sonic and knuckles were greatly changed for the movies, from their voices to their personalities. And I've heard some people complain that keanu's voice is too raspy and too deep. But if you ask me, it's just perfect for this version of shadow. I don't think the point was for them to get a voice actor that sounds like previous versions of shadow. That's why keanu is perfect.

    I actually always thought that Hayden was the weakest choice or at least where I'm the most mixed at. His voice is too flat for me too carry Shadow's more broodier and deeper voice even for David's standard. Cause David still manage to pull off the deeper voice. So far, all the performance from Hayden is either too softspoken or too growly but still on the higher registry tone. Essentially made his sound too young. And similar to Keanu Reeves, he's only a popular choice cause of his recent comeback as a Shadow's adjacent role as well with Darth Vader. Robert though, he's definitely my favourite choice cause of his range as an actor and a voice actor. He definitely has the voice inflexion to be able to pull off crazy voices like his performance in Boy and the Heron. But that's not a necessity for Shadow's voice. Keanu is my second choice, cause he's the closest thing to a real life Shadow himself.

    I'm happy you also had hayden christensen as a top pick and for a lot of the same reasons. Love how you describe David Humphrey's voice as a "Prepy school boy brat" I 10000% see the vision. When I was describing Humphrey's SA2 performance to a friend I used similar language. "Theater kid who's trying VERY hard to get the lead roll of Hamlet." And hayden christensen from starwars is absolutely got that Shakespeare tragedy wannabe. (In a good way)
    Shadow is just a little too theatrical in SA2 to be robert pattinson who has a bit too much "sad boy" energy.
    Not the biggest fan of Keanu, definitely my least favorite pick. But the memes will be crazy funny once we get to hear him and make an informed decision on his direction.

      But Shadow's voice isn't exactly known for having much emotional range. It's usually either a soft-spoken, mildly raspy, brooding monotone or just pure rage. That's right in Keanu's ballpark.

    I agree that people might be setting themselves up for disappointment. ARK, Rouge, Amy, Maria getting shot? Chances are NONE of these will be in the movie. And Paramount might be popping themselves in the foot by framing it as the SA:2 movie if that's not what they're delivering.
