Jim Carey started his career as an impersonator, and he says he's played the games, so it wouldn't shock me to discover that he's intentionally envoking Mike Pollock in those scenes.
The fact Jim came back for the third movie, when he was planning on retiring no less, proves just how much he loves being Eggman and being part of this wonderful franchise
I Can't believe that they actually managed to make a live action egg man not only work, but be the best part of the movie, Jim Carey is in his own class
Also, the grunt he makes in the first film while chasing Sonic before saying “That’s an illegal left, by the way” is pretty reminiscent of Mike Pollock as well.

I think that was their intention, to create an antagonist that would look more and more like the original Eggman over time, kind of an origin story. The whole series will probably end with Robotnik getting fat and ending up in Sonic's world, and we have the same old story.
Jim outright said he’s willing to wear a fat suit to play the character at some point so honestly if the next movie has him gain weight between movies I’d be down for it
honestly, as much as it pains me to hear that Jim Carryey's not gonna be doing this forever, I completely understand and wish him the best in his future career, cause live action has its own host of issues compared to simple voice acting, I just wonder if we'll ever get anyone with the same kind of Zany Eggman energy as Jim Carrey
There is only 1 Jim Carrey. The chance of finding a replacement with the same zangy energy as Carrey rates rights up there with replacing Michael J. Fox as Marty McFly in “Back to the Future,” or replacing Burt Reynolds or Jackie Gleason, 2 of the stars of “Smokey and the Bandit.”
@@gameoholic1994 They can always contact mike pollock and say that robotnik uploaded his mind to the mainframe or something, so we would have only his voice in the movie. If that being said, it's very unlikely that jim is actually quitting, well, filming the sonic movie at least
If this was truly to be Jim Carrey's final film performance, I can live with that. Because this is a performance that is MEMORABLE and impossible not to smile at. There's just so much energy in his performance in these two movies. So... this is a good sendoff for a stellar actor.
It was kind of a stroke of genius to not have Jim immediately try to be the Robotnik we'd expect. Instead we get to watch as he transforms before our eyes.
not only that he confirmed himself that he himself never even played sonic or even heard of the game he just acted eggman's personality and placed a little comedy in it which was actually quite good
@@danboru_bakooo1966 06 Eggman actually looked pretty Cool, I hope they take Some Inspiration from it for the third movie… Maybe without the Strange Egg-Tiddies though [If you don’t know what I’m talking about, just look up the design]
Pretty sure this was the point of how Eggman was written. And it's so much better that it didn't just start out as a bald man with a crazy mustache, but instead becomes that way out of a mixture of ego and survival planning.
The more the movie progress, the more Jim becomes like Eggman. In the first movie he starts off as Robotnik, with some traits of Eggman such as hunger for power, love for machines, zero respect for minions, and even tho he looks VERY different from traditional Eggman design, later he does starts to become look more like Eggman with the red suit and moustache. In the second movie he become MORE Eggman. New red suit, bald, glorios moustache, goofines, obvios psychological problems and ofcoruse - hatred for Sonic. Plus, he had a Death Egg robot, which leds a bit more into Eggman's ego and desire to put his face on everything. The third movie will probably be the culmination of Robotnik's decsent into madness, and he will finish his transition in Doctor Eggman.
@@reinierdash9020 that is what all actors say to get more money from the negotiations, that is why robert downey jr talked about retiring from being iron man for 10 years straight (until of course he finally did retire)
Something to note, comedy is actually *really* hard to act, waaaaaay more difficult than people give it credit for. There have been several instances of comedy acts transitioning into more serious roles and absolutely dominating it. Being good at comedy is one hell of a skillset and it makes other roles much easier. Carrey rocked this role, easily my favourite part of the films.
I love how always tried to pull fast ones and really gives off megamind vibes with his relationship to sonic. He wants him dead, but loves the chase. Even died sticking to his guns that "Later Hater!" Was perfetion
@@Excelsior1937Jim Carey I think would only do the line “IM PISSING ON THE MOOOOON” and that’s about it, and even then it’s a stretch, namely because it’s the most tame thing in that annnouncement
I remember when they first casted Jim Carey I wasn’t sold. Then I seen his performance and now I’m falling in love with the actor all over again. He is The E.G.G.M.A.N.
Jim Carrey is going more for the video game Robotnik, which is mostly Mike Pollock. The "PINGAS" line was voiced by Long John Baldry, and his rendition of Robotnik was very different.
Glad he came out of retirement to fufill his purpose as eggman again in sonic 3. He knew that no matter what, he is eggman. And he must fufill his purpose
I absolutely LOVE that Tom Holkenborg used Robotnik's theme from "The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog". The second that sound hit me in the theater the first time I was overwhelmed with pure nostalgia and happiness.
I had NO faith in this casting when I first heard they got Jim Carrey of all people to play Eggman, but man...he does such a surprisingly accurate impression of Eggman from the games. It's kinda scary. He definitely proved me wrong with how good of a job he's doing playing this character. Lol
I honestly like his slow transformation over the movies as he looks more and more like Robotnik from the comics and such. Next movie he definitely has to develop an eating disorder to gain weight.
I was really skeptical of this casting choice before the first movie came out but by the time I saw that end credits scene I have to say this is probably the best we could've hoped for in a live-action adaptation
When the first announced Carrey as Ivo I was a little unsure. But he nailed it. He's got that eccentric personality that reflects the comedic side of Dr. Robotnik but has just enough of the dramatic talent to give him that evil, threatening edge. He's done WONDERFUL with this series. And the two movies have been absolute love letters to Sonic fans.
The thing about Jim Carrey's Eggman is sometimes he says or does something that makes me go "That's Eggman!", but it's mostly overshadowed by random wacky hijinks that make me go "Oh, hi Jim Carrey..." Part of me wants to see him come back for Sonic 3, because they say they're not going to recast him and you can't really do Sonic without Eggman, but I'm afraid he's just going to dial up the craziness to the point he might as well be an original character to the franchise.
They been saying for a while each progression of the sequels he would get even closer to Game Eggman. It's just evolution. Jim also been craving for Fat Eggman (which it was teased in the Mean Bean Coffee Shop), technology evolution, and his ego.
He’s been growing into eggman more as the movies progress as noticed, in the first he was like a standard guy whos in love with machines, but of course has a bit of eggman wackiness, then in 3 he’s a lot more like eggman, especially with his ego, also I’m pretty sure it was stated somewhere that jim’s robotnik would “evolve” into the actual eggman, instead of just starting as him
@thrashingputz5163 it's not the *only* thing. The characterization of Sonic and especially Knuckles are much better than how they were portrayed in the games in the 2010s. (can't really comment on Tails since he doesn't have enough screen time to be fully fleshed out)
@@annoying_HK_guy I still think that a superhero movie about Plastic Man with Jim Carrey in the role of Plas would have been possibly one of the most memorable superhero movies of all times.
Feel like some scenes on the first movie when he speaks rapidly also feel like the Eggman's brilliance Yet, Jim did _amazing_ at portraying the actual Eggman on the second movie and that's just facts
Like many others, I also think he was the best part of the movies. Jim Carrey really fitted as Eggman. Despite generally being a comedic or emotional actor, he managed to make Eggman menacing as well, as he should be. What I like too is that his Eggman role is not as crazy as Ace Ventura, so it probably really makes it easier on him given his age.
Jim Carrey has always been like the more loony version of Eggman, I mean if any of ya'll seen the movie The Mask you'll see what I mean. But regardless, yeah he really did started to lose his marbles the more Robotnik tried to get Sonic.
@@Twilight17Petkoton I, never read any of the Archie comics, so I don't really know what's happenin over there; all I know is that the leadup to its current version was pretty wild and that the current Eggman got knocked out and lost his memories for a little while and was a pretty upstanding guy while in that alter ego. And if I'm allowed to say this, the Eggman I'm more familiar with is the one from Sonic X, that was a fun show. =)
@Tommy Fox Yeah oddly enough I have Sonic X on Netflix and Hulu difference is that Sonic X season 3 is only on Hulu and Netflix getting the short end of the stick on 2 Seasons that it.
@@Twilight17Petkoton I always saw it in the On Demand section on Cable and I think there's more than 3 seasons, but I don't remember, it's been a while. Um, whaddia think of the show?
Jim Carrey as Eggman is one of those things that sounds like the textbook example of miscast.......yet it wasn',t he didnt just nailed Eggman he BECAME Eggman, hell this is now one of my favorite versions of the character
I think it helped that they let Jim ease into becoming Eggman and through that helped the audience get eased into his version of Eggman. Look at him in the first movie, he’s barely Eggman. He’s not fat, he’s got hair, he doesn’t hate Sonic and he doesn’t even have a witty repartee with the blue blur, he has more lines with Tom. But he was still a compelling and interesting villain so people didn’t care, in addition they had that tease of a more accurate Eggman in the trailer so people knew he was going to eventually become him. They didn’t just dump Jim on us with a goofy moustache and fat suit, saying “here’s your Robotnik” they gave the audience time to accept him as Robotnik and show Jim become him
Kudos to Jim Carrey and the writing, it really allowed him to take a normal bad guy and have him slowly become Eggman. Seeing the scenes back to back like this highlights the progression. Great stuff.
When I was little I used to play with my brother with sonic plushies, we used to discuss that Jim Carry would be perfect as Dr eggman, and that did actually happen
I thought Jim Carrey was just gonna be silly the entire movies, and I was pleasantly surprised he was more sinister while being funny about it.
I liked him as Eggman
He is a very good actor
He was funny and sinister at the same time I loved it he killed it he did such a great job hope he returns for Sonic 3

I love how he sounds aggressive to Agent Stone but compliments him
I absolutely LOVE that Tom Holkenborg used Robotnik's theme from "The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog".
The second that sound hit me in the theater the first time I was overwhelmed with pure nostalgia and happiness.
I just love watching Jim Carry cut loose. You can see his inner Grinch come through every now and then in these films and I’m here for it
0:03 unless there's microsoft software running in it... then it does whatever tf it feels like.
Foreshadowing of Skynet from Terminator… Damn machines do whatever they please.
And he finally reached peak Eggman in Sonic The Hedgehog 3 with the fat belly!!
2:25 you cut it off just a second before he went full eggman voice.
Now it’s just him saying “coming”
I love how during certain parts of his performance, Jim Carrey actually begins to sound like Mike Pollock. 0:44 2:35 2:25
0:45 its actually crazy how much he sounds like him too here
That “YOU can’t beat me!” Sounds so real and straight from the games.
Jim Carrey is the best Eggman. you can tell he is having the most fun playing this brilliant maniacal genius
I had NO faith in this casting when I first heard they got Jim Carrey of all people to play Eggman, but man...he does such a surprisingly accurate impression of Eggman from the games. It's kinda scary. He definitely proved me wrong with how good of a job he's doing playing this character. Lol
Him saying “Cmon, that’s hilarious!” On the mushroom planet, sounds scarily similar to how eggman sounds in the games.
0:14 when your at school and you see there is more work on the back of the paper
0:35
He looks like Robert Downey Jr with that frame 😂
😂
So the laugh of dr. Eggman in sonic movie 3 announcement came from 1:00 meeting sonic again?
Nice
I honestly like his slow transformation over the movies as he looks more and more like Robotnik from the comics and such. Next movie he definitely has to develop an eating disorder to gain weight.
Or fat suit
I was really skeptical of this casting choice before the first movie came out but by the time I saw that end credits scene I have to say this is probably the best we could've hoped for in a live-action adaptation
"I did some things, you did some things, _there are good people on both sides..."_
*SHADE HAS BEEN THROWN.*
He just did what he had to: he studied the character well, his attitude, his way of doing things and he replicated it as best he wanted
When the first announced Carrey as Ivo I was a little unsure. But he nailed it. He's got that eccentric personality that reflects the comedic side of Dr. Robotnik but has just enough of the dramatic talent to give him that evil, threatening edge. He's done WONDERFUL with this series. And the two movies have been absolute love letters to Sonic fans.
The thing about Jim Carrey's Eggman is sometimes he says or does something that makes me go "That's Eggman!", but it's mostly overshadowed by random wacky hijinks that make me go "Oh, hi Jim Carrey..." Part of me wants to see him come back for Sonic 3, because they say they're not going to recast him and you can't really do Sonic without Eggman, but I'm afraid he's just going to dial up the craziness to the point he might as well be an original character to the franchise.
They been saying for a while each progression of the sequels he would get even closer to Game Eggman. It's just evolution. Jim also been craving for Fat Eggman (which it was teased in the Mean Bean Coffee Shop), technology evolution, and his ego.
He’s been growing into eggman more as the movies progress as noticed, in the first he was like a standard guy whos in love with machines, but of course has a bit of eggman wackiness, then in 3 he’s a lot more like eggman, especially with his ego, also I’m pretty sure it was stated somewhere that jim’s robotnik would “evolve” into the actual eggman, instead of just starting as him
@thrashingputz5163 it's not the *only* thing. The characterization of Sonic and especially Knuckles are much better than how they were portrayed in the games in the 2010s.
(can't really comment on Tails since he doesn't have enough screen time to be fully fleshed out)
Jim Carrey manages to be the most cartoony character in movies where the main heroes are *literally* cartoon characters.
And in live action which is very difficult to pull that in for most
But that again, HE IS THE MASK!
@@annoying_HK_guy I still think that a superhero movie about Plastic Man with Jim Carrey in the role of Plas would have been possibly one of the most memorable superhero movies of all times.
I wasnt sure about him in the role at first, but he did great. Looking forward to the 3rd one.
2:06 more like "jim carrey becoming more and more like Ace Ventura as the movies go on"
And The Grinch in there as well
You know it would be satisfying if Mike Pollock said some of Jim Carey’s voice lines as Robotnik.
Or if Mike makes a cameo in the third movie
honestly Jim Carey was the best part of the 2 films, also the reason why I watched it, lol
A genuine flair for showmanship all the while never not having a hint of sinister air about him, Carrey made a great Eggman
Jim Carey Eggman in opening scene: *Roasts Military General*
Jim Carey Eggman probably by the third movie: ‘I’ve come to make an announcement’
this is my favorite form of eggman
I also thought the line “Ah confidence, a fool’s substitute for intelligence..” from first movie was something Eggman would say.
Jim Carrey is one of few people on planet who could do this role.
Feel like some scenes on the first movie when he speaks rapidly also feel like the Eggman's brilliance
Yet, Jim did _amazing_ at portraying the actual Eggman on the second movie and that's just facts
And now, he’s completed his transformation in Sonic 3
Like many others, I also think he was the best part of the movies. Jim Carrey really fitted as Eggman. Despite generally being a comedic or emotional actor, he managed to make Eggman menacing as well, as he should be. What I like too is that his Eggman role is not as crazy as Ace Ventura, so it probably really makes it easier on him given his age.
I love Jim Carrey's energy in his performances. He was perfect for this.
1:24 that 100% Sounded like AOSTH Robotnik's scream
2:34 was legit peak eggman for me
Jim Carrey has always been like the more loony version of Eggman, I mean if any of ya'll seen the movie The Mask you'll see what I mean. But regardless, yeah he really did started to lose his marbles the more Robotnik tried to get Sonic.
Dr. Eggman not Robotnik and losing his maid yeah same with the Archie comic of Sonic the Hedgehog.
@@Twilight17Petkoton I, never read any of the Archie comics, so I don't really know what's happenin over there; all I know is that the leadup to its current version was pretty wild and that the current Eggman got knocked out and lost his memories for a little while and was a pretty upstanding guy while in that alter ego.
And if I'm allowed to say this, the Eggman I'm more familiar with is the one from Sonic X, that was a fun show. =)
@Tommy Fox Yeah oddly enough I have Sonic X on Netflix and Hulu difference is that Sonic X season 3 is only on Hulu and Netflix getting the short end of the stick on 2 Seasons that it.
@@Twilight17Petkoton I always saw it in the On Demand section on Cable and I think there's more than 3 seasons, but I don't remember, it's been a while.
Um, whaddia think of the show?
I love how there is a descent into madness with this version of Eggman, in the first movie he is Robotnik, but by 2 he is full on Eggman.
We finally have fat egg man now the sonic three trailer is officially out
Mad respect for him. A lot of villains turn coward when facing defeat. He was sneaky, sure, but he didnt back down or run. Such an amazing depection
Jim Carrey as Eggman is one of those things that sounds like the textbook example of miscast.......yet it wasn',t he didnt just nailed Eggman he BECAME Eggman, hell this is now one of my favorite versions of the character
I think it helped that they let Jim ease into becoming Eggman and through that helped the audience get eased into his version of Eggman.
Look at him in the first movie, he’s barely Eggman. He’s not fat, he’s got hair, he doesn’t hate Sonic and he doesn’t even have a witty repartee with the blue blur, he has more lines with Tom. But he was still a compelling and interesting villain so people didn’t care, in addition they had that tease of a more accurate Eggman in the trailer so people knew he was going to eventually become him.
They didn’t just dump Jim on us with a goofy moustache and fat suit, saying “here’s your Robotnik” they gave the audience time to accept him as Robotnik and show Jim become him
I REALLY hope we see Jim Carrey in a fat suit for the third film. THEN we’ll finally have the most accurate Eggman to date
Jim Carrey playing Dr. Robotnik gives me Robbie Rotten vibes, and I love it
Still waiting for him to say “I’M PISSING ON THE MOON!”
I love how we just see Robotnik going crazier and crazier as the movies go on
Kudos to Jim Carrey and the writing, it really allowed him to take a normal bad guy and have him slowly become Eggman. Seeing the scenes back to back like this highlights the progression. Great stuff.
Yeah, first movie he’s just a brash egotist, second he’s a flat out nut job
One of the greatest actors of all time.
When I was little I used to play with my brother with sonic plushies, we used to discuss that Jim Carry would be perfect as Dr eggman, and that did actually happen
I love how he starts to sound more like Mike Pollock in some scenes in Sonic 2.
Wait till the 3rd movie comes out, he's gonna be even more unhinged and more eggy
