In Defense of the Sonic Movie’s CGI

[@NormieDudeReal]

I recorded the intro before knuckles was out so I take back what I said about me liking the human plots

[@cannonbyrd1755]

bro knuckles had the best human plot

[@kingbash6466]

But Wade peak Sonic character though.

[@JabariMore]

I have the exact same opinion. I liked the human plots in the movies but FUCKKK the Knuckles show made me hate a human plot lol

[@PandaSlothProductions]

TH FLAMES OF DISASTER :OO

14:49 Knuckles nodding his head after he said that💀

[@Tails_and_Luigi101]

he was at gunpoint

[@crater159_YT]

ARE WE GONNA TALK ABOUT SONIC 3'S CGI, HOLY SHIT IT SMOKES ALL OF THESE

[@Irelynn-vv8fu]

YES, OH MY GOD THAT trailer was GORGEOUS

[@sonicultimateyt1090]

Two months too late

[@sonicultimateyt1090]

Or too early The trailer wasn't a thing yet

[@juliorodriguez9746]

​@@sonicultimateyt1090dude, thid comment is 5 days old 💀💀💀💀

[@Thomasscoopbobsonic]

I’d like to add something,tails’s model was also redone for sonic 2, his model in sonic 1’s post credit scene is rly different to his sonic 2 rig(this is for people who probably don’t know this by the way not to normie)

[@samueld8413]

I’ve heard that Tails’s model in the first movie was a HEAVY retool of Sonic’s model, similar to how Shadow was a retexture of Super Sonic in the second

[@Thomasscoopbobsonic]

@@samueld8413 really? I honestly didn’t know that, now that I think about it, his face in the first movie did look a bit like Sonic’s.

[@HAMOUDSPILLED]

No im pretty sure tails design yet wasnt complete it was only a block placeholder that was finished at the time

[@Thomasscoopbobsonic]

Where are you all you coming from?! Thanks for almost 50 likes bros.

[@SonicTheBlueFastBoi]

Tails in Sonic 1 was colorful as hell, in Sonic 2 onward, he’s less vibrant, which is more realistic

[@kingbash6466]

I thought that the CGI for the Sonic Movieverse was probably the most praised part. Even the people that absolutely hated the Knuckles show thought the VFX characters looked pretty good, especially for a TV show.

[@CrazyCappy22]

The vfx may not be perfect but I’ll still love these movies.

[@BigBootyDuty]

The VFX is great after they fixed it, I bet you never even realized the times in the movie where they used a doll.

[@BIGpanini]

I'll just say that in knuckles, when he is sitting at wade's family dinner table, his feet look like PS2 models for the way they're lit, but yeah everything else was crisp as far as I could tell

[@spiderzilla7o7]

I like sonic changing his appearance in sonic 2 cause he did in the OG games

[@maipeikko3151]

OHH i looooved this video 1- really good to know that my own observations of the cgi and like colorgrading shit on the sonic movies werent just me being crazy. 2- YES THANK YOU, KNUCKLES had realy nice cgi and vfx! knuckles looks great :D Im super interested in movie producion and things alike, i want to work in the industry and this video helped fuel the fire in me to pursue this dream. keep it up!!!

[@ChaoticCooper]

Another thing I'd like to add. People say that the scenes in the trailer were the only finished ones, but that seems to only be mostly true. Pat Casey in an interview did say the baseball scene was made with the original design, so I'm gonna assume that was also finished.

[@S8ers]

0:24 I feel like paddington is on the same universe of movie sonic so maybe that’s why they’re taking so long for a third paddington..?

[@TobyNo1Awesomeness]

It releases earlier in the UK

[@z.ngaming2681]

1:25 lol 1 11:26 lol 2 11:36 dp meaning 12:26 lol 3 13:43 yeah 14:01 vfx companies

[@trashboat4759]

💀

[@FatTundra64]

I never got why people hate the movie Sonic design and it’s cgi Hell the visuals are like my favorite parts of the films aside from the plot . They look real nice, especially when they try to recreate existing sonic areas like labyrinth zone .

[@braydeuce3353]

DP??? DUDE PERFECT MADE SONIC????

[@kaobunn]

i do think what tyson hesse said holds weight, as naturally he would know how production went i never felt movie 2 had bad CG but im also not a professional animator so take for that what you will

[@Strelitxia]

Rip movie sonic he would’ve loved the heromeal

[@NormieDudeReal]

[@kadino9285]

I thought you made the "Fatbelly VFX" name up for the sake of a joke, but I looked them up and they're actually real...

Comments on the new movie CGI?

[@NormieDudeReal]

the sonic 3 trailer looks really good and doesn’t look like a bad netflix action movie

[@petergriffinsbrother2499]

​@@NormieDudeRealThe colour grading is actually good this time

[@SnuggleBear_80s]

Will the sonic movie with ugly sonic ever get found?

[@KirbyFan4411]

This was a very enjoyable, informative, and funny video, thank you NormieDude.

[@sketchycat6223]

2:35 so true

[@Lime-enjoyer]

13:15 yknow that happens irl and in every other cartoon? How did you not know this??

[@ChargedTheHedgehog]

9:46 Missed an endless possibilities reference (sonic unleashed)

[@NormieDudeReal]

I don’t actually play or watch sonic I just see the trailers and stick my hand up my butt

[@ChargedTheHedgehog]

@@NormieDudeReal oh, well you did a really good job at critiquing it. You had me convinced that you actually play sonic lol

[@corruptedteka]

@@NormieDudeReal Wait.... you don't ? you had me fooled.

[@Evoflare133]

You shouldn’t tell people to kill themselves if they disagree with you. They might listen.

[@mario03216]

what's the song starting around 14:20? it sounds like something from the Sega 32X or CD, but i just cant place it awesome video btw, just subscribed

[@r_ound3406]

Looking this after Sonic 3's trailer, i hope we can see what you have too say about it! You make some nice vids!!

[@Lando_RBLX]

dude your so underated

[@amazingfilmuniverse105]

Sonic’s design got updated again in the third movie.

[@swr.nezumi]

the anount of silent hill in this is immense

[@khamanismith9487]

1:20 what’s the music in the background?

[@hiddenflare6169]

I think the video is mostly fine, some jokes are more annoying then funny (like telling the audience to uh 'go meet god' is an annoying joke and reminds me of how youtubers used to always mock the audience if they don't agree with them... Thats one thing from past KZbin I don't miss) and I do feel you assume a bit too much of your audience. What If I want to hear you talk all about the lighting in the Sonic movie, have you considered that :P? What if I find the details behind film making and what does and doesn't work interesting? Just a few things to consider.

[@Wiziliz]

Phil? Isn't his name Paul? Is that some weird localisation stuff?

[@shawnparmer5036]

Personally, I like how JosephFunEdits made him look

[@xandrietv6958]

ok, since we're bringing this back up all of a sudden, I'm going to say it. I honestly loved the trailer in 2019! Everyone flamed me for liking the shade of color and the details to his model. I even liked the Gantsa's paradise and him seemingly ready to save the planet. In due time, the backlash for his design was national news and at that point as a business decision you would be forced to change the design. I'm glad they did it and the franchise is now successful. I just wish people would not bring up the past and struggles paramount went through to make sure their investment thrived. Let's just enjoy the franchise now, ok?

[@AwesomeDrawer2017]

I didn’t agree with this, so I’m on my roof rn

[@MightyMarcusPlays]

10:30 its not that big of a difference

[@attackofthecopyrightbots]

silent hill music thumbs up

[@caguko]

Appreciate the SH music.

[@wallowlight]

good video twitter guy

[@cupatee9751]

Honestly, I like Sonic's look in the first movie more than the second

[@Thomasscoopbobsonic]

Honestly in some of the scenes of the first 2 movies the animation feels as robotic as early episodes of the first season of sonic boom.

[@______xxfunky_space_panda4183]

does anyone know what song is used on 14:18?

[@clarenceandgennymcneil251]

Dont bully old design Sonic

[@spiderzilla7o7]

hopefully he turns into 2017X

[@matheuspires2462]

He will make you play along in time

[@jakescartoons6045]

You say Sonic fans don't know how movies work, but I'm a Sonic fan, and I have filmmaking experience.

[@BentoHumengga]

It would be nice if they stick with the cute and marketable Sonic model throughout the sequel.

[@slurmpus]

wait can you turn the vocals down i cant hear the music

[@SurAuvers]

Name of the Music at 14:20 ?

[@noahthomas4246]

bro nobody noticed cause you lied to them. ITS NOT PHIL ITS PAUL!

[@SGPOOPS]

cool dog

[@CarlosBlanco-n1k]

I get it you stole it

[@fiblz5443]

you should maxlevel yourself

[@bucketttz]

Honestly, they should've just ported the modern game models and added all the HD textures n fur and such so it's still the same style as the game design yet fits the movie. That would've worked so much better

[@yucelonmaz2]

No it wouldn't

[@iampinball3669]

Heh. Funny ass vid… good job kid.
