    The best part about the character design changes is Robotnik's slow and gradual transformation into Eggman throughout the entire trilogy.

    • @ulv6760
      @ulv6760 5 днів тому +25

      Carrey had undoubtedly read endless amounts of comics, watched the TV series and studied the games to understand what kind of man Eggman was, what kind of personality existed in the mad scientist in order to form how to make him a reality in the live-action movies. With his personal twist, humor and ingenuity, Carrey has created a new Eggman out of a normal human being with certain... flaws, you could say - and he crowned this with a masterpiece because his alter ego, Gerald Robotnik, was necessary to show Robotnik at his deepest. It took three movies, but the transformation from the mercenary scientist Robotnik to the mad supervillain Eggman has been completed. The work was finished.
      So Carrey can go his way, because Eggman has been fully developed and I don't think he is willing to stay in a fixed personality, which other potential actors (they must then have a strong resemblance in appearance) can take over. I think a new Eggman will come, who could possibly not only take over the role of the original, but also bring back memories of him - including the boundless hatred for Sonic.
      What remains is "the big boss" the imperialist ruler that Eggman had been so many times in the comics, the TV series, the games - and that could only happen if the Sonicverse expands from just Earth and humans. It's time for non-humans like mobians, black arms, babylons and others to step forward. Eggman will then partly fade into the background.

    I don't think people realized just how close we came to disaster. The Sonic movie came out February 14, 2020 - just a month before Covid lockdowns started. If the redesign had taken just a little longer, the Sonic movie would've either been delayed by a year, or released to empty theaters, and the big studios would've taken away the lesson of "never listen to the fans, just shove it out even if everyone hates it".

      to be fair unlike with sonic's model being the only thing that needed to be changed, the Minecraft movie is mainly 75% CGI and would take a lot of money and time to change. plus even if they do change the models that doesn't change the script so its doom to fail

    I would also honestly point to movies like Ratchet & Clank and Detective Pikachu, movies that - while, yes, they did toy around with the established lore and story beats from the source material - had enough sense to respect the source material for fans of their respective series. Movies like that walked so that Sonic - eventually - could sprint at supersonic speeds.

    With Sonic breaking the video game movie curse, the live action adaptations of anime could be done. 2008’s Speed Racer is regarded as the best one out of the bunch, even though it was critically panned when it came out, but with people now seeing it what it is, especially with the Actors like Emile Hirsch telling praises of it, I think it is time to see if someone can dip their toes to try and break that curse as well

  • @victormaze7650

    Plot Twist: It wasn't that fan broke the curse. It just that the animator made a bad design on purpose so everyone can talk about how bad it is even more so that the movie would sell even more after they fix the design. Harder to trust someone then it is to break someone trust, that in a negative sense as in that's what they did with the movie. 9,000 IQ move right there. JK, lol XD
    There are talks about that but that probably not what happened, I just said that as a joke is all. Lol XD
