Sounds about right. Puppets are actually more helpful than empty air. It also makes animating the characters and the effects more realistic

[@SpaceJawa]

Which probably helps save on production costs since there's a firm reference to work from for the final scene.

[@liljakethesnake536]

I love it helps the Actors/Actresses learn and that they are not alone and that they get to talk to sonic and the character’s without them being real

[@martinheredia5076]

They did with the live action Tom and jerry movie and space jam a new legacy back in 2021 I hope Jeff Fowler makes the pink Panther reboot movie with Eddie Murphy with the pink Panther white man the ant and the aardvark

[@reenachauriya4931]

Removing the puppets and puppet masters from the shot is a pain but if it helps with acting and movie quality then it's worth it

[@philipenglish4926]

Would make it better if the actors playing characters should use the puppets of their respective characters if possible.

[@olamideakinola7297]

It is indeed wholesome watching the family dynamic of Sonic, his chosen parents, brothers and pet. Can’t wait to see more of it in the future.

[@mayracordero382]

Me too

[@leonelfacundobarriosibanez1967]

Now! He's on his way to Get a girlfriend

[@everythinggirly916]

"We can create this big spectacle, but it doesn't really mean anything if you don't care about the characters." Thank you, Jeff Fowler!

[@litlit12345678]

The best movie in the world! OMG I love Tom and Maddie so much! This family that was created is without a doubt the most amazing and adorable thing that could have happened! The family dynamic is perfect, especially the relationship between Sonic and Tom! Please Paramount more screen time for Tom and Sonic together, their father and son relationship melts my heart every time. Great job, I can't wait for the next projects and Sonic movies!

[@omokoyejoakinfenwa4453]

It would be nice if we got some heart to heart moment of Tom and Maddie with Tails and Knuckles and possibly Amy as well.

[@ACinemafanatic]

@@omokoyejoakinfenwa4453I feel Maddie doesn’t get enough shine as the mom

[@Dante-k4c]

@@ACinemafanatic Kinda did in the Knuckles series

[@TheMeganism-d9j]

Paramount, the people who have made the Fast & Furious movies. Fast & Furious: is about family Sonic: is about family I see what you did there😉.

[@al.109]

Universal does Fast and Furious

Original Film Made It Too

I really love seeing the behind the scenes for these movies, ESPECIALLY when they have puppets like that.. ya know whenever you guys finish making these films I'll gladly take these puppets off your hands.. just letting ya know

[@PeterGrffin204]

Hi mason

[@Bluespeedmouse820]

Yooo wassup Mason

[@portalwake9762]

Um... Are you sure that's the right poster? 5:29 😂

[@toeknee52305]

Maybe it's the 5th anniversary edition

[@GottaGoFast91]

All the build-up... For a Sonic 1 poster LMAO!

[@toeknee52305]

@portalwake9762 My guess is that Paramount wants to do a 3D re-release of Sonic the hedgehog 2020 to honor its 5 year anniversary

[@santitovargasp]

Yes what happend?

[@paramountpictureofficial]

That poster was NOT an appropriate choice...

[@wesleythompson2481]

I love Sonic the Hedgehog 3 so much, one of my favorite movies ever. I love the Sonic movies so much, they’re amazing, funny, entertaining, etc. I’m so looking forward for Sonic the Hedgehog 4 coming in 2027

[@liamphibia]

In the words of a Robotnik: "So nice when this W lives up to the hype."

[@PreartistJacob]

ive been seein u huh u cant escape me LIAM.

Amazing Movie! I Loved Sonic 3 And Made Beautiful Memories Watching All 3 Movies With My Family, Thank You Jeff And The Paramount Team For Bringing This Dream To Life ❤🎉

[@WaqarStudiosTV]

we now need a puppet cut of sonic 3

[@kineticmediahub-enlightenment]

2:12 It's confirmed! Sonic, Tails & Knuckles are (at least in the movies) brothers in all but blood.

[@Jeff_doors16]

I loved this movie! Thanks paramount, jeff fowler, and everyone who helped with film, for the hard work on these movies! We all can't wait for the 4th one! ❤🌀🎉

[@bowmaj8666]

I pretty much grew up playing Sonic games, and for years I've constantly heard people criticising "Sonic's stupid friends" and complaining "nobody plays Sonic games for the stories!" Yet here we are with 3 live action movies that have all become popular hits. Listening to the people who worked on these movies talk about this franchise and it's characters and how much they mean to their fans is so refreshing.

[@JediMasterBricks]

Going from the sanic design to this is absolutely insane

[@COSun25]

Sanic is better than Ugly Sonic.

[@BumblingFool912]

Just read that Fowler worked on the CGI prerendered cutscenes from the original Shadow the Hedgehog - no wonder that this has so much love poured into it!

[@leiagelwasser2168]

Release the puppet cut

[@WaterMeLoan64]

😂

[@SpaceJawa]

At least as a trailer!

[@joaovitorpatrocinio1773]

These is one of the best movies I watched at 2024, that one showed how sucesso it’s the franchise Sonic at theaters, so let’s just congrats Jeff Fowler and all cast members for making these masterpiece and keep going forward! ❤😊

[@IronMan-dt2le]

"I feel just like Vin Diesel! It's all about family, Tom."

[@LarryHayward-v7p]

l love this franchise so much. Can't wait for Sonic 4 in 2027.

[@krististarosta6736]

These are really great behind the scenes of Sonic 3! The actors and crew laughing and having a good time! Tika really did laughed out loud there! Everyone is like family! So much heart!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰I wish I was a part of this.🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

[@crislunaverellen6563]

The entire trilogy of Sonic is just flawless and amazing! I loved the whole chemistry of Tom, Maddie, Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles. Sure CAN'T wait to hear about the fourth film.

[@slimgrim3607]

It's fantastic ..but not Flawless.

[@francesleones4973]

The Found Family of the Wachowskis is so precious! Protect this family at all costs!

[@jonmckane4672]

I love this Sonic family!! Thank you cast and all that take part in these great, great movies. We have something genuine here, and I'm very fortunate to be apart of it 😊

[@lorrieyoung1440]

I prefer Sonic The Hedgehog 3 than Despicable Me 4. Thanks a lot Paramount for making this movie!

[@-Marc06]

Ok

[@CHANIMATES]

I cant wait for amy to get her own creepy puppet

[@Ella_the_Goose]

REAL 😭😭

[@SpaceJawa]

They'll bring in the Metal Sonic puppet as an actual robot.

[@GhostlyK_Haze]

I actually auditioned for Amy rose for sonic movie 4 on my channel. God and Jesus have always, always been with you, even if you don’t see God and Jesus! John 3:16, Nehemiah 8:10 😄✝️😄✝️

l love all of them talking about the family dynamic. This is make this movie defidently better. And seeing sonic all alone in the first movie was really sad but now..he's have a dad, mom, siblings and ozzie!! There are gonna make me cry.. :'D

[@FloandKnuckles]

God I love how sonic tails knuckles tom and maddie formed this super wholsome family. As a sonic fan this movie is a dream come true. Thank you ❤

[@NACHO_XwX]

How nice and beautiful all the efforts you made thanks Paramount ;)

[@Themasktrooper]

Can’t wait for Sonic 4 Movie is Amy and Metal Sonic time

[@pixxel_fire]

This is peak. Watching these movies made me a big fan of Sonic, I really wasn’t expecting to like it this much.. now I’m playing Sonic 1 2, and 3 and knuckles 😂 I guess peak is made to be played as well

[@TheGeeee]

0:34 i need whatever this song is playing in the background asap

[@CoquetteDallasWinston]

i need THESE PUPPETS AND LITTLE TOM!❤ i absolutely love sonic and these films are amazing

[@bobcake8904]

I wanted more of the puppet stuff. Like how the actors tethered themselves into the world and worked with green screens, and not actually seeing who they talked to. I’m curious about that. Little bait and switch- but still heartwarming. Thanks for doing a good job with the franchise!

[@Cineor]

So amazing and enjoyable to watch this and their work for this movie! 😆🔥🙌💙💙🎥

[@CaioWiederYT4]

I Loved this Movie 10/10!

[@Unan1mouz]

Really love Sonic movie for the family values!!

[@AnshiBezawada]

dude everyone just looks so happy on the set, i want them to keep making these movies if nothing more than just to see them have fun

[@SorenAlba54]

I was surprised to see that Sonic 3 doesn’t have the Extras in their digital platform in their release this time but I’m glad I get to see them here.

[@Polandpotatoonionsign]

5:21 in the base, knuckles and tails were on the other sides. The only error in the movie and honestly really hard to notice

[@savannahbush1229]

Everyone who helped out with all three Sonic films, did such an amazing job and I in the future these people stick together for many more to come because it just wouldn't be the same without them. Especially Jim Carrey

[@angelasaunders3558]

Never did I ever think that I would love a movie franchise featuring a gaming character, which I am not a gamer so I had never played it, as much as I do Sonic. 😊❤

[@yuurishimura7049]

I LOVED THE MOVIE SOOOO MUCH, I WATCHED IT FOUR TIMES...❤

[@JayFoxFire]

Me 2! XD

[@GreenSpawnyHunter4]

I love this movie!

[@austin5019]

Amazing to see behind the scenes of how this incredible film was made!!!

I love this movie amazing job 😭👏🏻🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@Sicario2O156]

I wish they would sell copies of those puppets, But still this movie is great, and the behind this scenes is fun to see also!

[@blueblurgamer123]

Sonic has been my childhood and im glad and wont miss any sonic movie

[@DawnApon]

In the first movie they had them acting at dead-air right? This is a huge step up, love to see it

[@DawnApon]

This one felt the best in terms of consistency of the characters and scale, too.

[@WubloHub]

Shadow’s Ultimate Life Form Did Take Over As The Blue Blur!

[@tonyrodriguez2943]

Team Sonic will return in Sonic the Hedgehog 4.

[@Haziitunes]

Ah yes. Once again being reminded that I have terrible family dynamics and Sonic has more support from his parents than I do 😂

[@yurleyrincon-zg6nn]

La película estuvo increíble 1 millón de 1 millon

"This movie, at the heart, it's joy..." What movie were you watching lol?

[@HarryA27]

0:43 I have only seen that in the trailer tails runs around maddie but in the movie tails run through maddies legs

[@DinoCam1795]

Wrong title (the puppets aren't mentioned at all) and wrong poster. 5:29

[@PLUGGINGTON4PREZ]

What’s the name of that sonic show that would come on on the free antenna channels? Wild kratts cat n a hat knows a lot abt that was on there too.

[@bluestudios4734]

I see them as big toys for Sonic and friends for the live action movie

[@revelryinthedark]

I need to see puppet Shadow 😂, I know he has the little statue but where's puppet Shadow

[@YanPayag-GD]
