I mean isn’t that why fans were saying Keanu Reeves should be Shadow for the last 2-3 Years? They planted that seen in our heads. They even stated 2 years ago they wanted a famous actor to voice him and were already contacting him.
I love how they built up Sonic and Dr. Robotnik's rivalry. And Dr. Robotnik is one of the most hilarious villains I've ever seen. Every single thing he does is just so extra. Jim Carrey's performance in incredible.
These movies are objectively great. They have just the right balance of cartoonish humor, slapstick, and actual story. I wasn't even a Sonic fan growing up and I still love them.
There's been many different voices of sonic over the years, all of which are all different but give off the same vibe, ben schwartz gives a very fun take on the character that i very much love
I'm sure this has been said but Tails is voiced by Colleen O'Shaughnessey who also voices him in the games. Her notable games include, Sonic Frontiers, Sonic Boom, Sonic Forces, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, Team Sonic Racing, and Sonic Dream Team. The fan response of her inclusion was massively overwhelming. From IMDb; "All the excitement and love I've received from the fans has been so gratifying, with all these tweets telling me they were hoping that I would get to play Tails in this film. They've had my back and have been so supportive since the beginning."
“There was like a chicken robot and. Remind me what the other robot was.” It was like a little green drill guy with treads for legs and drills for hands and a drill for a nose. ^^
Jim Carrey's inclusion in these films is truly the crown jewel! Everyone was good, but who else could possibly keep up with Sonic aside from the living toon that is Jim Carrey
See? This is exactly why I love Reel Rejects. it makes me feel the same magic as if I was watching the movie for the first time...! Right there with you, Andrewflash, nostalgia overload... SEEEE - GAAAA..! BTW Tara, that matching blue eyeshadow? Lovely. 💙
There are a lot of things people criticize about this movie. "It's not like the games, it's goofy, it's childish" etc. And yeah, I guess all those things are true, but it didn't stop me from enjoying it. It's not super deep, but it doesn't have to be. It's a fun adventure, and I had a good time with it.
@@Jason-..- lol just because most people like the movie doesn't mean it doesn't get these criticisms. You're not on the online sonic community enough if you haven't seen them
It's funny that you're reacting to sonic 1 after Greg and John reacted to Sonic 2. I recently watched these movies a few weeks ago. My brother joined me a few minutes into Sonic 1 and he surprisingly enjoyed both movies. We're gonna see Sonic 3 in theaters 🎉.
Best chili dog was at a fair in upstate New York. It literally caused my brain to melt because it had Fritos and bacon bits on top of the chili and it was life changing
At my favorite little restaurant in my hometown, if you order a chili dog, you get a hot dog bun with only chili in it lol so you specifically have to order a hot dog with chili. It’s the best.
Its great to see the 90s version of jim carrey aka the old school jim carrey that always brings laughter plus he was so great as the grinch in the live action movie
I love Tara coming in with the blue eye shadow. And I love that you guys loved this movie. But also, how could you not? it's so fun! And I already want to see your reaction to the second one, I won't spoil it but Tails is not the only new character in that.
For the year 2020, the pre-pandemic era and as an long-awaited movie adaptation of a classic video-game franchise; this was awesome. One of the producers of The Fast Saga, Neal Moritz is lead producer of this franchise. For the storyline they mix up elements from some of the franchise such as the original game (1991), the first Sonic Adventure game (1998) and the anime series Sonic X (early 2000s). Ben Schwartz as the voice of Sonic is great. Jim Carrey as Robotnik is totally perfect and harkens to his 1990s vibes. James Marsden as Mike the Sheriff was cool too. I saw this at AMC in the Dolby Cinema format. It was more than just a video-game movie. It had heart and humor, also the idea that for Sonic to be the hero he is, he needs to be encouraged by those close to him. That no one is ever really alone in the world. Those action sequences of Sonic doing what he does best are amazing and the nods to the games are perfect. This became the no.1 film adaptation of a video-game in U.S. release and broke the opening-weekend box offce record held by Pokémon:Detective Pikachu (2019). Your gonna like The 2022 sequel and the Knuckles original series.
This is one movie where they listened to the fans, and the fans responded positively. The original footage had a really weird looking Sonic, and the fans REVOLTED. They listened, and redid all of the Sonic animations. It is SO much better.
Not a huge Sonic fan but gosh Iove this film it shows that the people who made this most definitely grew up playing the games or in the director's case apparently worked on one in the past and if they didn't grow up playing Sonic Games then wow they must get an award for best actor considering if the films are any indication then they grew up on the games and other Sonic related stuff. Carrey as Eggman is one of those castings where when I heard it I went" Wait what? Huh?" Yet in execution it's pure gold especially the evil grows scene. When I first watched it not too long before the 2nd one came out I basically laughed at any funny Jim Carry says. Gosh I love that man
i was a sega kid i didnt have a nintendo console until the gamecube i never got the snes or n64 so i played a lot of sonic 2 and sonic 3 and sonic and knuckles street fighter 2 vectorman just to name a few i was a big sega kid
@@Southern_Fatheryes it is, I kinda disappointed not gonna lie, in my opinion I give the show 5/10 not great or not bad either, the only positive thing from the show for me that Wade is funny just that.
When Roxy and Tara get to Curse Of Chucky and Cult Of Chucky, Greg better make sure they watch the unrated cuts for those movies since the theatrical cuts don't have the post credit scenes that set up the next installment because Greg keeps skipping the unrated versions like he did with The Descent, Jennifer's Body and the Saw movies
The language Robotnik speaks is Japanese, a reference to the fact that Sonic is a Japanese franchise (despite Sega being an American company). Also yes, the breakers were an Easter egg. "Badniks" are the name of Robotnik's robots. Also, they used a life sized statue of Sonic to stand in for the real Sonic whenever the characters or environment needed to interact with Sonic.
7:20 - The washing machine is a reference to the Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog PSAs, and one of the most infamous ones which was about washing machine safety.
Fun fact, that last general in that meeting room you posted a fact about is Garry Chalk, who voiced Eggman in sonic underground and was optimus primal in beast wars and beast machines and then voiced optimus prime in armada, energon, and cybertron. I was so excited when I saw him when I saw him as a big nerd.
Loved this reaction. Great team ups as always reject nation. BTW that horrible sonic look is still "around" they show up in chip and dale rescue rangers movie from disney lol. You gotta see that cameo.
Just wanted to point out that 'Dr. Eggman' is Robotnik's second official name. It's actually his original name from the Japanese version of the games, and it was later made canon in the English version, as Sonic's nickname for Robotnik, because his body is egg-shaped. In most modern games, he is usually called Eggman instead of Robotnik.
One of the generals sitting at the table actually voiced Eggman in Sonic Underground And in the behind the scenes they showed Concept art that shows Chris Evans when he was one of the options to play as Tom
I'm really glad the producers took the time to redesign Sonic from the monstrosity they had before. I also really love the casting of Jim Carrey as Dr. Robotnik.
I don’t know if you’ll read this, but I’m gonna give some brief info. Ifif you do read this, please give me a shout out next Sonic reaction not for clout but just confirmation. LOL -1st Cartoon you described was “SatAM”, with Jim Cummings as Robotnik. This was a more dramatic show. -“Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog” is another cartoon by the same studio airing at the same time. Similar art style, same voice of Sonic for both. Robotnik has a taller head and goofier design with a tall chicken robot and drill nose robot henchmen named Scratch and Grounder. This was a more comedic show. -“badniks” are Robotnik’s robots. Specifically ones based on animals. -Eggman is Robotnik’s name in Japan. In 1998-onward, they made both names official by saying Robotnik is his real name and Eggman is his alias that Sonic gave time while mocking his egg-shaped body. (His head is a normal bald head in the games with a big mustache.) -There are a lot of Easter eggs, too many to point out and some you’d have to see the comparison to understand. -Fun fact: Sonic’s world at the beginning of the movie is based on the first stage of the first game, called Green Hill Zone. But they gave the name to Tom’s town. -Sonic loses his ring when taking damage in the games and has to collect them quickly before they disappear. They visually reference this when Sonic lands on the sidewalk after falling from the skyscraper. I think that’s good enough based on my evaluation of you 2. If you read it, hope it wasn’t too long and it helps.
Seriously appreciate all the feedback! Very kind of you! I would shout you out on Sonic 2 but we filmed it weeks ago. If we do Knuckles I will be sure to shout you out though :) thanks again for the info!
@@andrewgordon7662 weeee!! Or the Sonic Movie 3 someday. But heads up: it’s primarily going to be inspired by a certain Sonic game known to have a darker backstory. In case the movie gets heavier than expected but who knows. :)
Tara, Jury Duty was FANTASTIC. It is so damn funny. Marsdan was so so good in it. He really displayed his improv chops and his acting skills. The whole thing was so damn funny.
I just noticed during this watch that when sonic is running down the building and San Francisco and catches the ring with a straw, it makes "ding" collection noise from the games
With the perfect combination of Sonic and Jim Carrey, any 90’s kid would agree it’s impossible not to have fun with this movie. Also I freaking love how Sonic acts just like me and my friends did when we were kids, running around everywhere, never shutting up, and always trying to have fun with friends.🤣🤣🤣
Loving the review 🥰❤️🔥🥰. Sonic 3D was my favorite game. The fact you could go back in time was awesome. The detail on the fire tracks on the ground when you ran fast enough was the “Back to The Future” cherry on top.
When she mentioned how she liked how Sonic looked like he did in the game, I wonder if she knew what they were going to have him look like at first. I went to see this movie just out of respect for the film crew going back and changing it. Made all the difference. I don't know why anyone would try and do what they were going to in the first place, but respect for them listening to the fans.
loved seeing this one, you two were as hilarious as the movie itself.. heheheh So glad to see and hear Andrew's comments about suspending his belief and just to go with it.. so many times i keep seeing everyone trying to place reality into these animated and fictional stories it drives me up the wall.. they have already broken reality from the start, quit tying to make it come back, and just enjoy the ride.. ;) hehehehehe You HAVE to do the second one as well, it just continues this fun ride, and you'll have another ball with it.. :)
It seems James Marsden has a penchant for animated animal sidekicks. In Enchanted, he had a chipmunk called Pip. Hop, it was EB the Easter Bunny. Now Sonic the Hedgehog!
To answer Andrews question, the term Badniks is indeed an Easter Egg, it's the group name for what Robotnik's animal robots from the Sonic games are called. Some of the other Easter Eggs in the movie are the name of the town, Green Hills, is a reference to the first levels of the Sonic games called Green Hill Zone. Tails in the credits scene is voiced by Colleen O'Shaughnessy, the lady that voices him in the games. Sonic talking about chili dogs is an Easter Egg in itself, as Sonic's favorite food is often said to be chili dogs. the "Blue Devil" drawing that the guy has in the movie is a reference to a Sonic "meme" where Sonic is poorly drawn like that and referred to as Sanic. the editors seemed to have picked up on it, but Sonic not liking the Mushroom World is very likely a reference to his rivalry with Mario and the Mushroom Kingdom from back in the day. Glad to hear you guys loved the movie, I grew up with Nintendo, but I also played a lot of Sega and Sonic cause my buddies had Sega, so Sonic is just as much of my childhood as Mario and the other Nintendo characters are, so I loved this movie as well. You guys should absolutely watch the sequel, it has a lot of Sonic references in that as well and is just as amazing. They are also releasing a 3rd movie in December I believe, and they just recently started airing a Knuckles show that takes place in the same Universe as these movies. Video game movies have definitely been having a Renaissance recently, and this movie has been a big part in that.
I cried like a baby, when I saw this at the theater for the first time. I’ve been a Sonic fan since I was a kid 🥰 his personality and energy is kinda like me 😁 I’m still in awe that we finally got this movie 🥹 Sonic 2 literally exceeded my expectation and I had a scream of joy in the theater and my family looked at me like I went psycho 😂 I love Sonic The Hedgehog 💙🩵
This is truly one of the best, if not the best, movies based on a video game, ever. It honors the game, with lots of easter eggs, and it is just a great movie!
Adam Pally is amazing in Band-Aid a musical film with Zoe Lister Jones and Fred Armisen as his band mates, Zoe being his wife and Fred the wacky neighbor
My only criticism of Jim carrys robotnik, is the lack of chubbyness. But that's not an important enough detail to care. Otherwise, this was a great movie. I like flash in reactions, but taras reactions just make me happy and smile.
Ahh, Genesis was the first console I remember getting. Atari and Nintendo were already there because I had an older brother, but I can vividly remember getting my Sega on Christmas morning. Played the hell out of some Sonic 2 and 3 and Knuckles.
❤😊 well thanks to you too. I’m gonna have to go back and watch the originals sonics after I’m done watching your reaction. Good job guys. This is what I love about your channel. It makes you want to go back and watch the movies after watching the reactions.
Convertible trucks kind of already exist, or did. The Chevy Avalanche could be converted from a pick up to an SUV, so it's technically a convertible(in a way).
I am ABSOLUTELY an avid fan of this video game character, and became an even BIGGER one seeing him in 2 live action adaptations so far!!!! As a kid, I remember going to my godbrother's house, playing the game on Sega Genesis. Then in my teenage years, I had Sonic Adventure 2 Battle on GameCube(beat the whole thing)!!!! Now, I'm a proud owner of Sonic Forces, my 4th game for the Nintendo Switch, with Sonic Colors Ultimate as my, I would say 12th for the system as well!!!! LOVE IT!!!!! 😉

Speaking of easter eggs: Green Hills was the first level in the Sonic game.
Honestly, I think the biggest challenge is keeping a straight face around Jim Carrey. 😄
i'm convinced he was just playing himself in this film

Tara, Jury Duty was FANTASTIC. It is so damn funny. Marsdan was so so good in it. He really displayed his improv chops and his acting skills. The whole thing was so damn funny.
I love how well Sonic knows Speed. He shot the hostage! Or threw them off the roof in this case.
Love your video and keep up the great work you are awesome
I just noticed during this watch that when sonic is running down the building and San Francisco and catches the ring with a straw, it makes "ding" collection noise from the games
Andrew got all those people in the conference room scene with the military guys, but missed Colonel Tigh from Battlestar Galactica
With the perfect combination of Sonic and Jim Carrey, any 90’s kid would agree it’s impossible not to have fun with this movie.
Also I freaking love how Sonic acts just like me and my friends did when we were kids, running around everywhere, never shutting up, and always trying to have fun with friends.🤣🤣🤣
Loving the review 🥰❤️🔥🥰. Sonic 3D was my favorite game. The fact you could go back in time was awesome. The detail on the fire tracks on the ground when you ran fast enough was the “Back to The Future” cherry on top.
When she mentioned how she liked how Sonic looked like he did in the game, I wonder if she knew what they were going to have him look like at first. I went to see this movie just out of respect for the film crew going back and changing it. Made all the difference. I don't know why anyone would try and do what they were going to in the first place, but respect for them listening to the fans.
Literally put this movie on last night because I hadn’t seen it in a while, then u guys upload watching it today. 😂
loved seeing this one, you two were as hilarious as the movie itself.. heheheh So glad to see and hear Andrew's comments about suspending his belief and just to go with it.. so many times i keep seeing everyone trying to place reality into these animated and fictional stories it drives me up the wall.. they have already broken reality from the start, quit tying to make it come back, and just enjoy the ride.. ;) hehehehehe You HAVE to do the second one as well, it just continues this fun ride, and you'll have another ball with it.. :)
It seems James Marsden has a penchant for animated animal sidekicks.
In Enchanted, he had a chipmunk called Pip.
Hop, it was EB the Easter Bunny.
Now Sonic the Hedgehog!
To answer Andrews question, the term Badniks is indeed an Easter Egg, it's the group name for what Robotnik's animal robots from the Sonic games are called.
Some of the other Easter Eggs in the movie are the name of the town, Green Hills, is a reference to the first levels of the Sonic games called Green Hill Zone. Tails in the credits scene is voiced by Colleen O'Shaughnessy, the lady that voices him in the games. Sonic talking about chili dogs is an Easter Egg in itself, as Sonic's favorite food is often said to be chili dogs. the "Blue Devil" drawing that the guy has in the movie is a reference to a Sonic "meme" where Sonic is poorly drawn like that and referred to as Sanic. the editors seemed to have picked up on it, but Sonic not liking the Mushroom World is very likely a reference to his rivalry with Mario and the Mushroom Kingdom from back in the day.
Glad to hear you guys loved the movie, I grew up with Nintendo, but I also played a lot of Sega and Sonic cause my buddies had Sega, so Sonic is just as much of my childhood as Mario and the other Nintendo characters are, so I loved this movie as well. You guys should absolutely watch the sequel, it has a lot of Sonic references in that as well and is just as amazing. They are also releasing a 3rd movie in December I believe, and they just recently started airing a Knuckles show that takes place in the same Universe as these movies. Video game movies have definitely been having a Renaissance recently, and this movie has been a big part in that.
Angels in the Outfield was a major childhood movie for me… Realizing Neal McDonough was in it hit me like a bolt of lightning…. Jose can you seeee!
I cried like a baby, when I saw this at the theater for the first time. I’ve been a Sonic fan since I was a kid 🥰 his personality and energy is kinda like me 😁 I’m still in awe that we finally got this movie 🥹 Sonic 2 literally exceeded my expectation and I had a scream of joy in the theater and my family looked at me like I went psycho 😂 I love Sonic The Hedgehog 💙🩵
This is truly one of the best, if not the best, movies based on a video game, ever. It honors the game, with lots of easter eggs, and it is just a great movie!
Adam Pally is amazing in Band-Aid a musical film with Zoe Lister Jones and Fred Armisen as his band mates, Zoe being his wife and Fred the wacky neighbor
Robotnik's song choice was Where Evil Grows by the Poppy Family from 1971
Watch him mix up the reference at 27:31 🤣 “Pop quiz, Hotshot” “Popshot, Hot Quiz”
My only criticism of Jim carrys robotnik, is the lack of chubbyness. But that's not an important enough detail to care.
Otherwise, this was a great movie. I like flash in reactions, but taras reactions just make me happy and smile.
I think he will be chubby in Sonic 3 for sure
I love this movie and watching you guys react to this makes me even love the movie more!
This movie is so much fun! Jim Carrey is so great and funny in this movie! 👍
Also in the military council scene four actors were in Stargate SG-1 series... whish was also shot in Canada. :))
8:07 that drawing wasn’t made for the movie, it is a meme drawing by a fan known as Sanic
45:31 Well, Robotnik has been more known as “Eggman” than Robotnik for the past two decades
the time when robotnik sees sonic for the first time is super funny 😄😅😂🤣
Sega does what Ninten-don'ts.
Unpopular opinion but I liked Knuckles more than this film & it’s sequel
Ahh, Genesis was the first console I remember getting. Atari and Nintendo were already there because I had an older brother, but I can vividly remember getting my Sega on Christmas morning. Played the hell out of some Sonic 2 and 3 and Knuckles.
❤😊 well thanks to you too. I’m gonna have to go back and watch the originals sonics after I’m done watching your reaction. Good job guys. This is what I love about your channel. It makes you want to go back and watch the movies after watching the reactions.
Can’t wait for you guys to see the sequel. Won’t give anything away.
Convertible trucks kind of already exist, or did. The Chevy Avalanche could be converted from a pick up to an SUV, so it's technically a convertible(in a way).
Ah Jim is magnificent as Dr Eggman can't wait for the new movie so glad Jim stayed.
WOOP WOOP
I really hope to see you guys watch the Knuckles series after the sequel
I am ABSOLUTELY an avid fan of this video game character, and became an even BIGGER one seeing him in 2 live action adaptations so far!!!! As a kid, I remember going to my godbrother's house, playing the game on Sega Genesis. Then in my teenage years, I had Sonic Adventure 2 Battle on
GameCube(beat the whole thing)!!!! Now, I'm a proud owner of Sonic Forces, my 4th game for the Nintendo Switch, with Sonic Colors Ultimate as my, I would say 12th for the system as well!!!! LOVE IT!!!!! 😉
