    Never would of thought of Jim Carrey as Robotnik, but even with only a slight familiarity of the character from the games, he seems to understand the character deeper than anyone I've heard verbalize before.

      Jim greatly lacks the iconic physique and voice of Robotnik but to an extent understands the depths of his traits. The motherfucker is pure evil and not a big buffoon.

      @@VGMR I agree. I think he probably took note from the Sonic 1 manual which describes him as "Childish, no matter his I.Q.". Not to spoil too much during the short scene of him on the Mushroom World, he looks much more like him, even sporting a pot belly. And you can definitely hear a slight Mike Pollock impersonation in a couple of lines in that scene.

      @@ryantreadway9971 He'll need to pack more weight and deepen his voice with a massive side of sinister if he wants us to believe he's Robotnik. That buffoonery bullshit he did throughout the film made the character seem like a goddamn parody.

    What Carrey says about Dr. Robotnik/Eggman not having been nurtured or loved strikes home when you look up Eggman's backstory. His grandfather Gerald Robotnik was a genius who worked with the feds, and Gerald inspired little Eggman to become a scientist, but the man was executed for treason in front of the whole world. Robotnik's inspiration, his idol, his grandfather, the man he looked up to, was condemned and killed by the very same society that profited from the man's work. That's more than enough reasons to hate society even when the feds are paying you top dollar to solve their crap. Whether or not he realized it, Jim Carrey described Robotnik in the Sonic lore rather perfectly.

    “Who just is doing his life because there is fun to be had.
    That’s my philosophy about life in the first place.
    You have to find something to do in life, that not only serves people, but serves you, in your heart. Makes you feel like a child. Makes you go: ‘I get to wake up everyday and do what I love’.
    That’s the dream for everybody.”

      Because the Mario movie had absolutely nothing to do with the games. If it had been a cyberpunk dystopia movie with Dino-humans named anything other than " Mario Bros" that movie would've been a somewhat acceptable sci fi B movie. As it was trying to pass it off as Mario Bros was what made it suck.
