We weren’t sure if the new Sonic movie – Sega’s legendary video game character – was a good idea, but the result has surprised more than one. We can finally see the trailer for Sonic: The Movie , a preview that leaves us several clues about this feature film directed by Jeff Fowler . The film is the typical adventure comedy for the whole family, according to Paramount Pictures.
The trailer has not left anyone indifferent and, above all, has generated a lot of controversy . Sonic’s appearance has not reached the expectations of his fans, and the reactions have not been long in coming.
controversy and controversies
Ever since the live-action Sonic character design was released, many fans have been horrified. The most jarring aspect of Sonic’s original design is the eyes. In the trailer we can see that Sonic has small, dull eyes. However, in the game Sonic only has one eyeball, the eyes are large and alert looking.
Another of the criticized characteristics of the hedgehog in its live action version are the legs, with a humanoid appearance, the design of the slippers, the human teeth and the short spikes.
Getting Sonic to look more in keeping with the video game character would not have been difficult, as confirmed by the numerous images edited by his fans ., which have kept the “realistic” aspect of the movie but giving Sonic bigger eyes and more appropriate for the character, as well as more stylized legs. In the images that their fans have edited by themselves, we can see how the appearance of the hedgehog improves a lot.
