When I was watching the new Sonic movie I had to ask myself, "MatPat, why is Sonic on a road trip?" We all know that Sonic's big thing is running. He can move way faster than a car, which makes the choice of making his big theatrical release a road trip movie SUPER weird. Theorist, today I am peeling back the layers of this "plot hole" to figure out if it was a MISTAKE or, perhaps, proof that it really is about the friends you make along the way.

@@YoungAlienBoy what the, WHAT IS YOUR MEANING? WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!
lol exactly
I appreciate how MatPat calculated Sonic’s run to the Pacific Ocean and back, but it looks like there are some mountains there too, so I think he would have to calculate the height of the mountains that Sonic would have run up and back down again as well
Hi
TRUE
The rockies wre brutal imma be honest. Tho there are roads and passes that don't detour too kuch
I mean it seems to me that you can just tell sonic to go to the Pacific ocean, and then run down the coast until he hits San Francisco.
He is afraid of water

"That manipulative little hedgehog, Seems like speed isn't his ONLY super ability" Should be one of the villan's lines for the sequel.

And it does
lolziz sadly there wont be a sequel due to the studio basically bankrupting
@@rei1sba315 Sony? Sony isn't that far gone yet. At least I hope not, my girlfriend works under them :/
Youv'e gotta still consider in the movieverse he is still a kid, he feels a need for a parental figure like tom (donut lord) He also does not want to leave earth so he clings to the last times he has there, and for once does not gotta go fast
As I stated before I will again. You and your crew will always be number 1 in the movie business. No matter what people say about your theorist, you have always proved that the movie and television biz pay attention to what y'all produce. So keep up the great work you all. I'm on a personal mission to see all videos on all 4 of your channels by the end of the year.

I feel like Sonic just stayed with Donutlord because at heart, he’s a kid. He doesn’t want to be alone. And really, he doesn’t want to leave Earth. So he’s purposefully dragging his feet on leaving and spending as much time as possible trying to stay here. And he stays in the car with him because this is person he feels closest with, even at the beginning of the movie, this is his dad in his mind.
This is how I took it...only way for it to make sense
You have brought me back to why I love thulis movie. Its a story about sonic's character, his growth, and finding his place in the world.
I must have Alzheimer’s because I don’t remember asking
Thank you! I don't see why so many people don't get that? He's been alone for so long and loves earth, he wanted to spend time and travel with the donut lord.
He doesn't want to go, he needs a family like Dory from Find Nemo..."Just keep running, just keep running..."
Hey matpat I doubt to see this comment but did you know the sign on the board (1981) is a reference to when sega first bought the rights to frogger 10 years before Sonic first came out
Wow really? That’s pretty cool
I don’t know if I’m the first to notice this but this video was uploaded on February 29th, 2020, if you’re confused, 2020 was a leap year and leap year’s only come every 4 years (next one is next year, 2024), so how does UA-cam count this video as 2 years old but February 29th only comes every 4 years? (I should clarify this comment is sorta a joke but I just wanted to make this fact aware bc idk if anyone noticed this in the comments👍)
Sonic: DODGES OVER 100 MISSILES
Also Sonic: CAN’T DODGE A SINGLE TRANQUILIZER DART
well his brain was focused on screaming therefore he was distracted
I suppose the speed is something he has to turn on and off. When he’s using it, he can dodge. But if he doesn’t know the dart is coming, he can’t dodge.
Ha
MidnightMining Spider you mean AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
He was.....too slow.
If Tom just added in "and go south when you get to the coast" then the entire movie would've been over. The entire plot only happens because he's horrible at giving directions.
Ok

Can you be sure Sonic can run that fast continuously?
I have another take: Sonic seems to have the attention span of a squirrel. Maybe he wanted him to come along to keep him on track

Where did you get your profile picture from?

@@SteamPunkLinken7 Oh ok, thanks
nevo dahari it has 3 seasons 12 episode each it’s a good series
Matpat:"I'm the weird single guy"
I thought he was married with a kid, What happened? Did I miss something?
single guy meaning he is 1 Person watching the movie.
I think he was referring to the fact he was by himself in the movie theater rather then with a family
I think Stephanie left him after he sold off his own son in a previous video
This.
They divorced a few months ago.
My guess is that Sonic knows he could *maybe* get to San Francisco on his own in a much quicker way, but if he did he could be taking the risk of Eggman or someone else finding him much faster if they read his speed level or something like that
So he sticks by Tom’s side with the fake excuse that he doesn’t know where SF is because traveling by car wouldn’t raise awareness
With the added bonus that he gets to spend time with his father figure
But hey! That’s just a theory, a comment theory!

Sonic 2 and Tails
WOAH THATS DEEP

Yes...
Alternative Theory: Sonic wanted a road trip. The fish on his head would have dropped off if he hadn’t kept it there or put it there so, quite plausible
From our puny view of physics, this is accurate to a degree.
It may have stayed their. With the speed he was going his head could’ve kept it up their
There are plenty of things that I can do myself and I decide not to because I don't feel like it, so yeah.
Sonic has Quills like a porcupine the Fish was impaled like velcro and was unable to fall off on its own
thank you for this comment I honestly just think that sonic wanted to go on a road trip with someone he liked so he can be part of a family considering his personality and how lonely he was
Kalispell native here: how did I miss this episode till now XD I always assumed it was just a reference to old Kalispell - that is the one longtime native remember before blowing up. Good ol days.
Tumbnail ---> 6:56
Sonic 'could' have found his rings on his own but:
1. Everyone tends to think and do irrational things when they are scared. This is probably magnified because Sonic has no one.
2. He wanted to make a friend and took this chance to road trip with Donut Lord to do just that.
3. He wasn't in full control of all of his powers. In fact, he just learned to Time Stop and Spin Attack from the film.
4. This Sonic isn't the seasoned hero from the games, and this is his origin story.
I think bowling ball hedgehog was the only thing he'd learned.
I thought those scenes were just sonics super fast reaction time and him moving in accordance to that speed. Never knew it was him just stopping time.
👏👏👏
Did everyone just forget about the scene where he explains that he doesn't know how to get there? That's literally all it is. There's no big theory behind it
@@diegobrando3409 im pretty sure you're right about that. sonic obviously doesn't literally have time powers but people just simplify it to stopping time even though it's just the super fast reaction time.
Tom also could've just told him "Go west, turn left at the ocean, follow it south".
Or like, make it to the coast and run along it until you make it to San Francisco. But plot, apparently.
Literally this
@@donutchan8114 "Ah, the planet sized plot hole. We didn't think you'd notice that...."
Think about it too, he would have had 0% chance of failing to find it fast with those directions. They would put him right in front of the golden gate bridge, which he would recognize.
My mum gives more instructions than that to find the nachos
Sonic:Dodges over 100 missiles easily
Me:can’t dodge a nerf dart
Yea, Matpat posted his final video today. Hopefully he makes a cameo in Sonic 3
When Robotnik just used Sonic's power for his own machines I just thought: "So it's the same type of stand as Star Platinum"
9 seconds have passed
Is Sonic a Jojo reference?????
When Sonic stopped time I was thinking “4 seconds have passed”
I still wonder how there are JoJo fans in each and every comment section on UA-cam
Yare yare daze
Matpat: The CIA themself miscalculated the roadways in the world on their own website. What idiots.
*The CIA forgetting that people don't know about the classified roads:* Oh, haha. You got me good!
lmaoo!! nice!
*laughs in hidden *
classified roads?
how on earth can you make an entire road and keep it secret?
@@videakias3000 Think of it like Area 51. You can see it, you know it's there, you can even go outside it; but you are not allowed in.
Yeah, it feels like one person is more likely to make a mistake than the CIA. He should have gone by the official numbers.
🦔He's like a little kid at a theme park. Dragging their feet and taking as much time as possible. I would know from experience.🌀
you can really tell how late they edited the numbers on the speedometer based on the sloppy editing on the numbers showing this isnt most likely a film theory fan but rather a person who just heard about this through social media etc

Keep in mind this is from the Hamilton Musical.
Dude when sonic was taking a “road trip” his legs were considered “feelin like spaghetti”
Yes, and after that he ran out to see the rubber band ball.
jebblottin92 it was poorly acted out dialogue. The exact same words could do as long as the actor sounded a bit fearful.
Yes, but in one of the shown clips, he ran to the Atlantic ocean, before he had started the trip. This proves that his legs were completely healed at the point in which he is expected to have left.
jebblottin92 very true
Gaming for Gaming because the tranquilizer gun numbed his legs

"Did sonic waste our time"
Kid part of me : *nooo! Never*
Mom: youre wasting your time on the genesis/mega drive (i dont know which countrie you are frkm
Sonic is able to find his way back to the truck after going to the sea easily, in this case he must be good at navigating or have a good memory so as long as he saw a map he’d be able to make it to San Francisco
Ok I just wanna say what I think:
1. Remember, sonic had no idea where San Francisco was. That’s why the road trip.
2. He didn’t run up the wall because he prefers to be a secret.
Sonic isolating himself was just him hiding from the corona earlier than everyone else
Sonic went so fast he warped into the future and saw stuff about the virus and went back to the past and isolated himself. Or I t was just his home.
Do creatures that look like humanoid dogs from different dimensions catch the COVID-19?
Lol
Lol
HA! Sonic has nothing on us introverts! We were hiding from Corona since begining! XD
°Spoilers°
When Tails appeared in the movie a kid behind me in the theater yelled "YeLLoW SoNiC!"
Oh no...poor child...
Omg 😂😂
🤣🤣
Ha
When I saw it I started laughing and my brother said "It's freaking Tails"
Tom could have just gave sonic a map and highlight the route to San Francisco and BOOM he would have been there
You know what, I wonder, why didn't Donut Lord just give sonic his phone with google maps? As long as sonic respected how long the voice takes to speak, he wouldn't need to read the map, he could listen for where to turn.
That is, of course, unless getting google's permission to use their product in this movie would have been affordable, pff.
My headcannon why Sonic wanted John to bring him was because he was scared and uncertain.
And we know Sonic isnt a thinker.
So he bropably didnt think about just going all imperial measuring by simply running.
So in his paniced, cornered and scared state he just asked John to bring him there, not realizing he could have done it himself and alone.
Ethribin his name is Tom, but his dentist calls him Tim. But it’s gone on so long that it’d be weird to correct it now.
His name be Tom
his name is donut lord get it right
*Counter Theory:*
What if Sonic knows he could get to San Francisco really fast but chose not to because he didnt want to be lonely anymore, hence traveling with Tom.
Zanarkand this is true though( your counter theory)
This is what I believe to be true, though Matpat's theory isn't incorrect in my opinion. I think it comes down to the fact that in this movie, Sonic is much more of a kid and as such might have simply not been confident enough to explore such a distant place on his own.
Montana is his home, and he hasn't really left it from what we're shown. So going to some unknown place far away would not only be scary, but he would also have to find a way back home (if we're assuming he's using his rings only in emergencies and doesn't use the rings to get back to Montana).
While he probably knows that he's faster than Tom's truck, he sees this as an opportunity to fill the empty place in his heart. He's basically getting the father he never had AND that father is making sure that he gets to San Fran and back safely.
Thank you for listening to my insane ramblings.
Y’all it’s a good theory but not as good as this endless pasta bowl from Olive Garden
That is the best counter theory ever
Also didnt sonic get tranquilized
As a proud citizen of not Powell county, I can confirm that the prison is a castle

When running as fast as he does, how much calories is he burning?
How often would he need to stop and eat running every street in the US?
Maybe riding in the car is faster over all because he doesn't have to stop every hour and nap for three hours after eating 10k calories of food.
Plus he's only ever shown to run at top speeds for what in real time would be about 2 minutes max, so we don't know how long he can keep up the sonic speeds.
I was thinking about that too
He said it took seven hours. He has more than twice that time to beat the car bc of how long it takes for the car to get there. He still has soooo much time
I would love a theory like that

Matpat: rounds a tenth of a second before even solving the answer
Me after taking one physics class: *aRe YoU sUrE AbOuT ThAt?*
sIg FiGs
Agreed
aggreed
He's probably an engineer
He rounded up though, which means he final result would have Sonic going even slower in a calculation where he was already assuming a worst case scenario.
So keeping it at 3.9 would've just meant Sonic cleared the world even faster.
"sonic can turn his life around in 1 year so can you" i never felt so personally attacked. subbed
I know, right in the meow meow.
So… my question is…
1. Sonic accelerates so fast… how fast does he go and how much energy would his legs have to handle the acceleration?
2. If he went in … 3 speed stages where in stage 1 he just chill zoom 2 kinda zoom zoom and 3 full speed zoom zoom, considering his size if he were to… cover the whole earth instead of following a road how long would it take him to go from pole to pole?
3. If Sonic is his canonical weight, and he goes as fast as he goes, if he slams into an object how much destruction would it cause? (I know him moving at the speed already causes a massive shockwave every step.) but he IS made of… flesh right? Would his 30kg ball of fur disintegrate if he crashed into something big and heavy? 😮
i just now realized in sonic 2 he can run on water. RUN ON WATER! yet he crashes in to the cold dark waters of the pacific :(
MatPat: Adds up every single road in the western hemisphere
Also MatPat: Assumed Sonic doesn't cross the same road twice
He could run in circles in one state very easily
@@nataliaborys1554 exactly
I know how easily people can get lost in a shopping mall imagine trying to not get lost on a planet
I mean, he prob will only take a month even if he crosses each one 73 times or somthing
true but it would be slower than a 2 day road trip
but it's not like he will go over every road exactly once. This is the traveling salesman problem, but on a scale that's pretty incalculable
Yeah and does he never rest? how much can he run before needing rest, also route mapping gets exponential over intersections when you don't have a clue of your destination so no, even using only the biggest interstate roads I simulated an average of ~5 days using the clue of west using southwest it takes ~1.1 days
But he's also probably going to get to San Francisco before going to every single other road in the world. So it balances out.
@@ZachariahMBaird No it doesn't balance, I simulated the travel (see my comment)
But that's assuming his speed is the lowest possible... In reality he's just too fast... And sonic spends most of his time running we don't know how much he needs to rest. We would be assuming here...
It’s also unlikely that he’ll travel on every single road
Love ur vids
"huevos rancheros near the nazca lines" please tell me that joke was ironic about how mexico is so far away from peru and not you thinking huevos rancheros and the nazca lines are close to eachother
I just sat here in this theory and I thought, “I didn’t think of that”
So then I thought... maybe.. sonic didn’t think of that. It also could be that sonic wanted to spend time with the Donut Lord, and he guilted him into it or something. Idk. Those are just my first thoughts
I thought everyone caught that.
He's a kid who wanted to spend time with a person he thought was a cool dude. He had lots of things he wanted to do before he left Earth. He wanted to start a bar fight, he wanted to do a slam dunk, and he wanted to make a friend. He didn't want to be alone.
Also, we know from the movie that Sonic does get tired. Sonic couldn't have been running for 4 hours straight.
Margaret Lemon sonic isn’t a kid at the start he is..... it sounds like you really know nothing about him
Sonicgirl Playz It sounds like you didn't watch the movie.
But if Sonic did just run
Yes: he would get there faster
BUT he be would risk getting caught faster too
So tru
fair point and he'd probably cause more blackouts messing things up
And also loneliness and companionship
Also he would go back on roads he could be running in circles for hours
At least until the police caught him
I know I'm late but matpat should make a vid on who's faster sonic or flash and if you do plz mention me so I can brag to my friends 😅
I smile every time he uses a hamilton joke. 😀
"Did Sonic waste our time?"
Bro that's what happens when you don't invite Mat Pat to the movie premiere. Lol😂😂
True
Try this one out you won't waste your time 🤣🤣🤣 ua-cam.com/video/9K7Xcq563AE/v-deo.html
Matpat: talks trash about the CIA
His FBI agent: “I’m so proud of you”!!!
LOL
Next hes gonna be trash talking his FBI agent and both fbi agent and CIA agent will hate (I made the end make no sense on purpose)
pretty much whats happening
@@rustymarquis3997 And his KGB agent will go "comrade" and put down his hat in respect at pissing both guys off.
Hol up
Technically, it would be even less than 4 seconds because sonic would have to spend time realizing that he was in the ocean
You are so cool matpat
