Super Sonic vs Super Shadow nearly made me out of my chair and spill my drink. Sonic comboing Shadow across continents, the POV shot of their fight from space, Sonic punching Shadow to the FREAKING MOON and nearly killing him? It was just so…cathartic to see Sonic become so serious and menacing, and this might be major recency bias, but Super Sonic felt the most powerful he’s ever been in those scenes. Also, Shadow knocking the emeralds out of Sonic, Knuckles-style, Sonic actually winning the fight for the most part, everything about it was just breathtaking. And it wasn’t even a curb stomp battle from either side, they felt equally matched. Oh yeah, and the mid credit scene made me lose my voice for a bit. It was AWESOME(although, I didn’t know there was a second post credits scene)😭 I just…LOVED IT!

[@Maviuna]

I get what u mean...but man i wish u knew the lore..its complex and super good Am I the only one deeply disappointed by this movie? I'd give it a 3/10 review tbh, I thought they would make shadow's story as the original They altered it so much that I started to wonder about the people who don't know Sonic, like, they wouldn't know shadow's story.. the film watered it down and altered alot For starters, why make shadow come from a meteor?? Professor Gerald made Shadow yall, he made the ultimate life form There were alot of prototypes, one of them was shadow and he and another prototype, a lizard, survived But the lizard was out of control and was kept locked forever Gerald took the dna of black doom, an alien, evil one, This was never mentioned Gerald was working with the government to make this top secret project, and he had his granddaughter Maria with him on the space colony ark María, they made her normal and even got her older than she is supposed to be María is aged 12-13 years old In the movie she looks 15 man ... Also she suffered from an illness which made her too weak and unable to live normally, she wouldn't sirvive going down to earth, She wished she would go down to earth and see what's it like, she would always talk with shadow on that The government later comes and tries to steal project Shadow, while holding all scientists on the ark at gun point including Gerald María wanted to save Shadow from them, so she took shadow and together they ran, until she put shadow in a capsule and wanted to send him down to earth, a man with along rifle gun or whatever it's called, threatened Maria to let go of shadow and not to send him, she refused, so the man shot Maria in front of shadow, and shadow was sent to earth María, the 12 year old, was shot , by a man simply bc she didn't want to hand shadow over Why the haaaay did they not do the story correctly??? Another thing, María's wish María told shadow he was created to help people on earth and be their friend, she asked him to fulfill this wish and help everyone on earth, but then she died While Gerald was held prisoner, he said that his ultimate weapon is shadow, and that because they took María from him, his granddaughter, he will make shadow get revenge on the whole planet, Gerald spent alot of time in prison, and he had a master plan, he had a timer on the ark, ehen the government gets shadow and tries to make him theirs, shadow will start the plan and finally fire the weapon on earth destroying it Gerald was then recorded by the government, they told him to say his last words, before taking his life He told them that he will win, and that there will be revenge, and that they will pay, they then shot him and killed him The gov took shadow and put him in the freezer thingie or whatever it's called, freezing him for 50 years Then dr.Ivo robotnik(Egg man) went and awakened shadow When he was awakened He started directing robotnik towards the revenge plan Till finally robotnik went on the ark and found out about his grandfather And he tried to stop the weapon but it was irreversible So shadow teamed up with sonic to repell the canon attack In the process, Shadow released his two ring inhibitors on his hands, for him to unlock his full power And successfully they stopped earth from being destroyed Shadow however, fell unconscious down to earth, not sonic, Something they didn't mention as well is, shadow is full of chaos energy, too powerful that he himself can't control, which is why he has the inhibitor rings on him. There is just so much but i would type forever man.. Why? Why would they ruin such a powerful story ...a masterpiece...my god i was super angry and upset..

I think why Keanu sounded so underwhelming in the Gens dlc is because of both awkward direction and also the fact that he was ultimately voicing the same Shadow from the games, who as a character acts kind of differently than his Shadow in the actual movie which he was probably more used to playing since the dlc was so short. I can’t really blame him on that front, it’s a pretty difficult task.

Something that I feel would be a good move for Eggman if they bring him back and change his actor would be to maybe lean more on the actual villain Eggman has been in game/comics. These 3 movies has been the more usual goofy evil Eggman we know and a great way to distinguish a new Eggman from the Jim Carrey Eggman would be to lean more on The unexplored Robotnick era where he is just straight up a vile evil genius who ravages the land and breaks everyone who gets in his way.

[@lukestarford7608]

I feel the film is a solid 7-8 out of ten. Because while I was engage for most of the film, with alot of the jokes during the first and second half often being nailed more then the last two film. With there being no bad performance. With the film absolutely nailing Sonic, Knuckles and Shadow character and all there scene. While with Tails, I had to get used to them now being even high pitch which took a second but was really good in the film. I feel what stops this from being an even better film was Jim Carrey portrayal of Eggman and Gerald Robotnic because while there are many scene that he stole the show due to the comedy but also the more human and emotional moments as well. The conflict between Eggman and Gerald in the 3rd half took me out of the story more then last film did in a more damaging way since the Sonic and Shadow stuff was bloody brilliant as well as the build up to when we see the conflict between the Eggman and Gerald was really good. We actively see Gerald manipulation of Shadow, pushing him to destroy everything which makes Gerald a compelling, interesting and yet comedic antagonist. We knew Eggman both in games and film would never destroy the Earth and would oppose Gerald plans so there is this build up towards this moment for when they actually fight. But when the fight between the two finally happen and it just one bad jokes after another that actively hampers the amazing 3rd act and it damagers Gerald character for me, especially since I was hoping for a fight similar to Tails vs Eggman in the arc. That we see Eggman a character who whilst can be a funny man be deadly serious and is trying to kill Gerald in attempt to achieve his own goal. But also see how insane Gerald has become in the final moments and seeing Gerald die in such a underwhelming and unfunny way sucks If they didn't have these jokes in the 3rd act of the film. I feel the film would ended up being one of the best gaming film of all time but because it doesn't know when to stop having jokes. I feel parts of the film will either age brilliantly like Shadow whole character whilst other parts won't like Gerald and Jim Carrey. I feel people will criticise the jokes in the 3rd act in a few year because of how it damages the tension of what currently taking place. It ultimately goes back to the idea that a storyteller, a movie maker, etc needs to know when to make a joke and when to takes things seriously no matter if it a kids film or not. Children are not dumb, they may be stupid at times, everyone is but they will pick up on a when a film is thinking a child will not be engage in a story if they are not laughing.

He was still Super by the end with full release of the inhibitor rings...... maybe once the movie comes for DVD, people can really study that end scene. See if maybe we get a "the animals escaped Zebes" from Super Metroid moment.

I know that feeling: literally born weeks apart from the first game being released (May 28th) and my first game was Sonic 2 at a Daycare. And I remember doing dumb stuff as a Sonic fan like while listening to Sonic X's theme, I would run full blast on a treadmill to feel that speed. And I'm riding and dying with these movies. It is the perfect trilogy for a video game movie and just really great on their own!

[@RoyalAspects]

They should totally bring back Keanu to voice Cream the rabbit if she’s introduced, he’s such a great actor!😎

[@chub7405]

imagine if eggman said "ive come to make an announcement" at the end...

[@curlyq1305]

Saw it yesterday with the family, it was a lot of fun! I really liked it! Shadow is my favorite character and he was awesome! Easily, this movie will be on my top 5 best video game adaptations!

Sonic Movie 3 is OFFICIALLY my Movie of the Year! It is HANDS DOWN THE BEST MOVIE I've seen this year! The Nostalgia, Sonic Movie 3 hits SO HARD in bringing me back to my favorite Sonic Game, and the first Sonic Game I ever played, Sonic Adventure 2! I have A LOT of history with Sonic as I've been a Sonic fan since the early 2000s after playing Sonic Adventure 2: Battle on the GameCube. Now a lifelong dream has FINALLY been achieved after 20+ years! I have wanted a movie on Sonic Adventure 2 since the first time I completed it over 20 years ago! I always said if they ever made a Sonic Movie the plot should be based around Sonic Adventure 2! Everything about it just screamed movie to me! ESPECIALLY since all the cutscenes combined add up to about 70 minutes. So, you could make a movie on cutscenes alone! When Sonic FINALLY got his first movie in 2020 that was awesome enough on its own but as the movies went on we FINALLY arrived here at Sonic Movie 3, which is BASICALLY just Sonic Adventure 2: the Movie! Which like I said, I've been waiting for a Sonic Adventure 2 movie for over 20 years! Sonic 3 Filmmakers worked great with the source material while still making it unique. Even though some things were changed/omitted from the game in this movie, it still had all the essential building needed for a Sonic Adventure 2 Movie. (Shadow, Maria, Gerald Robotnik, The Eclipse Cannon, G.U.N, Chao, and numerous other things I WON'T DARE spoil.) But I don't think ANY of us were expecting it to be EXACTLY the same as the game, otherwise what's the point of making it? This stands out as its own unique thing while STILL keeping elements of Sonic Adventure 2, and even a few elements of the Shadow the Hedgehog 2005 video game. The fact that Sonic Movie 3 managed to take from existing source material while still making it feel fresh and new is quite the accomplishment that shouldn't be overlooked, but praised. Bottom line, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is the best movie of 2024 IMO, go see it! ESPECIALLY if you're a Sonic Fan! Even if you're NOT a Sonic fan, I think even non-Sonic fans will enjoy this movie! It's so much fun, and you don't even really need to have played SA2 to enjoy it since the story is told in a way where you don't have to be familiar with Sonic Adventure 2, but it certainly doesn't hurt. All I can say after this long post is..."Gotta Go Fast!"

[@timlyons3420]

You HAD to put fire ass music on the the background the distract me the whole video didn't you? Lol joking aside, love the review, love the channel, keep it up my guy!!

[@logantaggart4069]

I believe this movie was a love letter to all for hard Sonic fans

[@GamerBoy.1761]

Dude ngl, love the references that mostly were from Sonic Adventure 2 and The Shadow the Hedgehog game, love it!

[@PhilipAJones]

I don't think Knuckles is dumb in Sonic 2, he's just not familiar with Earth culture or tech...and hanging with Robotnik is not doing him any favors.

[@juabenrodriguez9113]

Its crazy that Sonic Adventure 2 Battle came out on December 20th, 2001. And then this film came out on December 20th, 2024.

[@PaulW_ftPAULK]

Absolutely loved it, it was an amazing experience!!

Lol honestly I woke up pissed this morning so but excited to see the review 😂

[@tyriquesmith8850]

lol that shirt you posted the other day was hilarious, and I can’t wait to see the movie

[@Muv22HD]

Literally my second favourite movie, it was perfect

[@Chaos-X-editz]

One thing that i was sad about was sonic passing out and shadow not using chaos control to teleport the ark away, i really felt lik instead of pushing it he should've teleported because it would've been cooler and more accurate + i get why sonic passed out, he'd already exhausted himself by fighting shadow, taking out the robots then trying to stop the cannon head on but honestly i wanted a scene where they both used chaos control and i wanted to see shadow push sonic away and save him from the explosion directly because it would've added so much more emotional impact

[@819slayer]

This is absolutely the movie fans of the game have been waiting for. I wasn't at a theater full of fans, so I had to reserve my reactions, but OH MY GOD ALL THE MUSIC FROM THE GAME! E.G.G.M.A.N, City Escape (apparently, never heard it but it was in the credits), Live and Learn, the Eggman villain theme from Unleashed-present, oh my god. I was having trouble steeling myself.

[@tx.tumbleweed]

the room he's in looks to have the same layout as the Gumball house

[@Choctopus]

I’ve never actually seen Gumball but might have to check it out now.

[@Cobaltios]

I think the one thing that actually caught me off guard... they actually spoiled a shocking amount in the trailers, but because of how it was edited, you'd never realize it until you actually watch the movie. Hell, some voice lines are used in entirely different contexts. As for the movie itself, I had fun. I wouldn't say it's absolutely amazing, but it was definitely much better than the first 2. And Keanu as Shadow was a very good pick.

Feels like the perfect time for them to put Amy on screen, pull just a little bit from the Archie run, and have her intro be "I'm Amy the Hedgehog, leader of the Freedom Fighters"

[@Sonicdxunleashed]

Na the restoration is better because sega doesn't want Archie being mentioned at all

[@nick_JOYBOY]

Guys I have a theory for Sonic 4, so what if Sonic 4 is inspired by Sonic CD? Metal Sonic and Amy was introduced in the same game, but not Sliver or anything related to Sonic ‘06. The plot for Sonic CD is Eggman using a time machine to ruin the future and has Metal Sonic with him to occupy sonic for being in his way (idk if eggman is still alive but it’s him or a different villain, maybe agent stone) and amy is with team sonic and get kidnapped by metal sonic, so he has to repair the timeline AND save Amy just like the game. Sonic and Metal Sonic with either fight or race (like the game) and Metal Sonic loses and gets Amy back. Then stops Eggman (or the villain of Sonic 4) and makes the timeline back to normal. BUT, this is where it sets up Sonic ‘06, aka Sonic 5. I Do Know Nothing mentioned that in one of his recent Sonic 3 video about the post credit scenes, and says that mephiles is a sonic 06 villain and told sliver that sonic is going to cause this other villain that’s worse, iblis, to trigger and come alive so has to go back in time and tries to stop sonic. that sets up the next two movies of Sonic right there.

[@john_tgb4457]

The movie was fantastic. I do have a theory for Sonic 4. SPOILERS FOR SONIC 3 The main villain of 4 will be Neo Metal Sonic. With Eggman (presumably) dead and Metal shown to exist, it just makes sense!

[@gabe4031]

Ngl was waiting to hear from choc on this

[@Al0neStillAlive]

I think if they had brought out the GUN mechs earlier as a response to Shadow it would have benefited the movie in two important ways. 1: Make GUN seem like a more formidable organization as it should be and 2: have given Shadow more room to show off his power before Sonic team shows up, as Shadow can't exactly be shown on screen tearing soldiers apart.

[@instinctive3066]

It’s so good, seriously anyone who’s a Sonic fan should see it

[@StormyDoesVR]

The only thing I really wished was different in Movie 3 was actually having Maria and Shadow be up in the Ark, other than that, it was as good of a translation of Adventure 2 into the Movie Universe as I think we could ever get. Yes, I am going to see it in theaters three times. Two down already

[@MichelangeloVA]

Eggman can return in 4, to explain the creation of metal sonic via flashback

[@PandaWithAnASharp]

I can't wait to watch it on Christmas eve!!

[@IanTho1]

NO WAY IT'S THE SONIC CHANNEL GUY

[@Deepseashark]

I 100% believe that Stone's going to be the new eggman probably blaming sonic for eggmans death. I also dont know much about sonic lore but the explosion of the ark kinda looks like a new galaxy was formed from said explosion so have no idea if that could mean anything. Then last thing are they going to acknowledge that the moon was split in half ever or is it just going to be glossed over lol.

[@MrMichaelisaacs1]

Super Sonic vs Super Shadow was fire.

The movie is starting to DOOM kickin in the moment Shadow enter Super State.
