If the original design had stuck, there would be no sequel or trilogy for the love action Sonic movie franchise.

2022: The Fitness Gram Pacer Test Is A Multi-Stage Aerobic Capacity Test That Progressively Gets More Difficult As It Continues

[@charcoal_coffee]

2030: In the physical plane of existence, our universe has many 'forces' (an interaction that will change the motion of on object when unopposed). As your serve a physical presence in this universe then one can easily conclude that forces will impose an action upon the carbon based life form we will now refer to as 'you' (a multi-cell organism, notable for being a spiny mammal in the subfamily of "Erinaceinae" and of a shade of blue - most unusual for an organism belonging to this family). As such, perhaps you have already come to the same conclusion as I. For you see, we must not resist these forces. Rather, we must use them to our advantage! You may not be aware but you are in possession of a weight-bearing and locomotive anatomical structure we refer to as "legs". Truly a blessing, a miracle of life, one must pause to appreciate such wonders, and how we we came to be, but I digress - your "legs" are capable of converting energy from your organisms energy storages to direct force. This results in momentum, through the 'inverted pendulum' gait in which you as a carbon based life form is capable of propelling yourself with! But this is not enough! We must exert as much force as possible, converting all available energy sources and pushing yourself with as much forces as possible! You will ache! You will be sore! But there is an age-old saying among creatures such as yourself - "No pain, no gain". This statement is likely a jest taking the physical pain set off by your incredible momentum which ultimately results in a benefit for yourself - for with progress comes pain! There is no alternative, but this is your goal in life. But why must we as a physical being be travelling over the surface of this planet at such velocity? We hold a title that is significant to other creatures, a meaningless self-esteem boosting which without we are nothing! It is unfortunate but this is the way of life. We are imperfect creatures and we crave attention! There are those who claim otherwise but they are wrong. But this is what our meaning in life is. To be swift and claim our title of the being in this planet capable of moving at what is currently greater than any other creature, of the billions of creatures in this universe, we are able to hurtle through this planet's atmosphere at a greater velocity! Oh what a title! Oh what a claim! With this achievement we will truly be remembered forever, and our life may have some meaning.

Respect, Making a movie is obviously no easy task, And yet they managed to listen and change up the design drastically, Even the colors slightly and the fur. Took them another year, but they managed. It was a great movie, too!
