Dont forget Robotnik's character development when he realized, he wasnt alone all this time. He finally recognized Agent Stone's loyalty as a true friend. That final scene was really emotionally amazing.
I'm not one to get choked up at a movie typically, no less breaking into tears. And as someone who hadn't really seen the first 2 movies in a long while, from what I loosely remembered, Stone was loyal but overeager about it to a comical degree. Like a version of Starscream worth keeping around to Megatron. So the fact that the character development for the literal villain was enough he wanted to save the world and more importantly Stone, that managed to get the waterworks going. And it speaks to how well everyone was characterized in the film overall. Everybody did a mighty fine job and it shows.
"Where are your fans? I thought you were a beloved brand? They tried to stop you, didn't they? But you did it anyway, your greed was too much. What kind of legendary studio abandons their creativity to pursue soulless remakes?" "Don't you dare talk about my brand!" "And here I thought you cared for them. Especially that one lion, what was his name again? Mufasa?"
@@noctis2255ironic, title should be flipped, mufasa, a mid movie is outperforming sonic 3 by over 100 mil. Mufasa is making the sonic fanbase look like clowns, especially with this video
Transformers One, The Wild Robot, and Sonic the Hedgehog 3 are passionately made kids films. Kung Fu Panda 4, Moana 2, and Mufasa: The Lion King are bottom of the barrel low effort kids films.
This! I went with my brother to see Sonic 3 and every 5 seconds, we were laughing so hard. Jim Carrey is an absolute legend and though he deserves to retire when he's ready, I'm SO glad he came back for this one and even played TWO characters! 🥰
Kid's movies used to have some really heavy themes in them when I was a kid. Littlefoot's mother dying in "The Land Before time" hit my entire generation hard. Even disney wasn't afraid to back then, I remember how emotional it was when Bambi's Mother died. Disney is took afraid to take risk anymore because they think its better to rest on their laurels which will cost them in the long run. Also I hate how they totally changed Scar's backstory. In the Lion King, Scar was angry because he was the oldest yet Mufasa was the king. Scar felt that he had been robbed of his birthright. But Scar being mad about not getting the girl? That's basically a footnote in every person's life and it doesn't make him seem like the powerful villian who sucessfuly overthrown Mufasa and claimed his throne by force.
Dealing with heavy themes with wisdom is a good way to get adults to enjoy the story. There's even a phrase i heard that seems to be from C.S Lewis, dunno if is from him tough but i agree: "If a children story can only teach and entertain children, it is a bad children story"
Land Before Time was done by Don Bluth, not Disney. In fact, Bluth's leaving Disney and making stuff like Land Before Time and American Tail was one of the things that pushed Disney out of their dark age and into their Renaissance in the 1990's and early 2000s.
It wasn't just animated children's movies, but live action children's movies as well. I remember that ending for the film my girl where (spoiler alert) Macaulay Culkin's character dies being attacked from hornets.
Fixing Mufasa in 3 easy steps: 1. Make king a good, loving king to his people but an absolute monster to his mate for her failure to produce an heir for him. Then, finally, after years she begins raising a son who begins showing the traits of his father. In a moment tramatic flash back that overlays the king's face with her son's she attacks her son and gives him the classic "scar" 2. The queen is then banished for attacking the heir, but not before they discover she is with child. Alone, she gives birth and raises him, Mufasa, to have the traits she beleives a king should have. 3. Mufasa's heritige is revealed to him and he returns just in time to foil the plot of his older brother, Scar. The king, seeing Scar for what he truely is, crowns Mufasa. Mufasa, being kind, does not banish Scar like the old king banished their mother, but Scar sees not mercy, but weakness in his younger brother, thus setting up the events of Lion King.
Detective Pikachu proved videogame movies work. Mario proved they’re profitable. But Sonic, proved they can be worth the investment, maybe even whole cinematic universe/franchise, if you respect the source material and listen to the fans. When “Live and Learn” came on, I was on the edge of my sight with joy.
They’re profitable because the fans would watch anything lmao. Let’s not pretend they’re all good. The first two sonic movies were mid at best. Detective pikachu was weird, and didn’t make much. Mario was a hit, but the movie itself was ok. Sonic 3 is an anomaly, and even with all the fanboys backing it, mufasa is still outperforming it.
@@UltraEpicVidsNo Mufasa isn’t outperforming it. Mufasa is currently the #1 movie worldwide, but that’s only because sonic hasn’t even RELEASED worldwide yet. And disney is straight up LYING to people about being the #1 movie in america, because sonic 3 made almost DOUBLE of what mufasa grossed on the first day of release. Mario did well because let’s face it- its simply just more popular than sonic. But sonic was able to innovate. Mario wasn’t able to make another 2 movies because they didnt even plan for that. Sonic 4 is gonna be sick, wether you want to believe it or not
@ what are you talking about lmao, sonic 3 is international, and it grossed 336 million worldwide. Mufasa has grossed 476 million. It’s not even close. How tf do you know how good sonic 4 will be? We literally know nothing about it. The fanboy d riding is real
Sonic 3: The best film adaptation of a video game ever made! Mufasa: A boring prequel nobody asked for that should have been a straight to DVD release like the Disney prequels/sequels made in the early 2000s. As a kid, I used to think that Scar was a cool villain, but after seeing his backstory that I never asked for, I realize he's a whiny delusional simp like Anakin Skywalker! Thanks a lot Disney for ruining another one of my favorite characters. /:
Here's a solution: Let's forget Mufasa ever existed and pretend that it's just one big nightmare That was, it won't ruin the cool ass villian Scar was made to be in the beginning
Releasing it straight to DVD is too kind.......The movie, and its script, should have been dropped straight in the trash the moment it was conceived.......
The thing is, almost all of the works Disney is known for are taken from existing stories, meaning that Disney's expertise has been in *adapting* stories, not creating them. In particular, they took stories that were very dark and adapted them to be family friendly, while altering bits to give them a happy end; any existing themes were likely from the work they borrowed from. I think this and Wish tell you all you need to know about their ability to create a story from scratch.
To be fair, they did the same to Sonic. They took something existing and made up a new story. The did the same thing with Mufasa and Wicked. Moana is actually new and creative in its own way.
I remember walking out of the theaters the day after Sonic 3 came out, and I saw one dude with his younger brother coming out of the theater, and the little brother was just beaming with joy and just extatic about the movie while his older brother was talking well about it too, and seemed to enjoy it quite a bit. I can't say the same about Mufasa.
To be fair, McD always collaborated with movies as cross-advertising. They had happy meal toys for Sonic 2 so them doing Sonic 3 isn't that far off. I worked at McDonald’s when they promoted Sonic 2 and I still have all the toys plus the display.
Spoiler alert!!🚨 Sonic 3 was very good. The moment shadow punched Tom at the GUN HQ and seeing Shadow made a huge mistake for misidentity because Tom was in disguise. Shadow realized at that moment his anger and rage was clouding him. When Sonic appeared and saw what Shadow did to Tom. I've never seen Sonic so angry. You could almost feel Sonic's motions boiling up. That felt very real. That scene was very good writing.
Warning plz But yeah. You can even hear how pained Sonic feels in that moment as Tom is practically left hospitalized. I can only imagine how he’ll react to seeing a remorseful Shadow finding his way into Green Hill and apologizing for the things he almost did.
So much for a spoiler warning lmao. Jokes aside, I swear that scene with Sonic being so angry was honestly the scariest thing I've ever seen. And I've seen the original movie Sonic design.
I'll put it this way: Me and my friend, who's not a Sonic fan but knows how much of a fan I am, went to see Sonic 3 on release date. We had a blast throughout the whole movie, with her even reacting to Live and Learn before I did and she got GOOSEBUMPS on that one scene on the 3rd act (IYKYK). Her veredict? "So, when are watching this again? Because we ARE gonna watch it again, right? Just give me a call and we're game" That's what you want: An accessible and entertaining movie regardless of age and audience. Her verdict on Mufasa tho? "Girl, that sh*t was REALLY BAD" At this point, I don't even care if Mufasa earns billions on the international box office, but they'll never live out the fact they were caught blatantly LYING 2 weekends in a row due to Sonic 3's success on the domestic box.
You know what's the worst thing? That you can appeal to nostalgia and have deepness at the same time, and it being a success either monetary or by the appreciation from the fandom. Transformers One did it, and it gave everyone an insane amount of red flags when the trailer was released.
Part of the reason why transformers one was good was because everyone thought it was going to be shit. The marketing team did a bad job showing what kind of movie it was, but at the same time, if they did any more, it would kinda spoil the story.
My favourite part of sonic 3 was the reference to the first cutscene of sa2 that I was not expecting. That was enough for me to know that is was a good movie.
I watched Sonic 3 and mufasa on the same day. And obviously, Sonic 3 took the cake. Not only was it FULL of amazing references, the movie had heart. I laughed, I genuinely cried, and I was happy watching this. The emotion and the story in the movie was delivered so beautifully. The entire time I was watching mufasa, I didn’t smile, I didn’t laugh, I didn’t even come close to having my eyes water, I just sat there emotionless waiting for the movie to be over so I could leave the theaters. That’s what happens when you actually put your heart and soul in your films Disney, you should take some notes from the fastest creature in the universe.
As a massive Shadow the Hedgehog fan defending the sonic the hedgehog 3 movie, I'm sick and tired of Disney dirty tactics, for them to bully theatres compelling them to put up more screens for mufasa was evil beyond measure and for them to just Lie, boast and brag, about their soulless piece trash film being number one just made things worse on themselves, I've already seen mufasa once in the UK last year and i did NOT like the film not one bit, it was boring, colourless and Lifeless. I went to see sonic movie 3 to root for my boi Shadow the hedgehog as i seen the film 3 times even in 4DX which was an amazing experience...
If Sonic 3 can handle Shadow this well then I can’t wait to see how they handle Metal Sonic in Sonic 4. And honestly the fact that we see that Metal Sonic is a mass produced badnick in the movie’s world can easily make Metal Sonic’s story even better than it was in Heroes
Having just watched the film in the cinema, Sonic 3 was absolutely filled with references, and despite its child friendly nature, it was absolutely great.
Imagine if they were able to get away with showing the original way she died...since avoiding higher age ratings is probably the main reason they changed it.
@SansJustSans Well just so you know, SEGA originally gave Sony the contract to make the Sonic movies but somehow Sony quickly gave-up on being the company that would make any of those movies and passed the contract over to Paramount.
Mickey and Disney: "Mufasa: The Lion King" is now the #1 movie in the-- Me: *SIKE, that's the wrong answer!* [Suddenly the metal music starts] Mickey: What the wishing star is that music?!

Like sonic 3 isn’t? Lmao, it’s literally based off an old video game. Mufasa was an original story. Concept wise mufasa clears, they just did a terrible job.
"Despite being a movie about a blue, fast hedgehog," is a similar energy to, "despite being a movie about a spider person in red and blue spandex," or, "despite being about talking lions"
I prefer talking heads than talking lions. :P "And you may find yourself living in a thousands merch And you may find yourself in another giant attraction park And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large trains And you may find yourself in a beautiful hat, with a beautiful princess And you may ask yourself, "Well, how did I get here?"
Spoiler discussion: That scene where Sonic fucking MOON PUNCHED SHADOW WITH THE CHAOS EMERALDS, my jaw dropped. You could feel the anger he did in the theater, who wouldnt feel anger over seeing someone they love being hurt? Shadow was so overtaken by his own grief that he couldnt feel anything for Sonic, not until they have their talk on the moon Also the dance scene with both robotniks is peak, i love Galvanize.
Transformers One had horrible marketing. I had no interest in it. When it came out on Paramount my kid insisted we watch it. I was dreading it. Turns out it was one of the best movies I’ve seen this year.
What's crazy is that my parents wanted to watch this movie. They are middle aged, never once showed an interest in the sonic universe, and they don't even really like Jim Carey too much, while Mufasa should be up their alley, theyd rather watch Sonic with me. They were invested and not too lost in many scenes despite not knowing anything in the lore. It is such a great movie and I'm already anticipating the fourth one!!
If you have ever played a sonic game, you know they are going in the direction of the games, darker stories. This is amazing, I recommend playing games like SA2, because it gets even deeper than what the movie touches on. Next movie, I hope, touches on the technology v nature of maybe sonic CD or Heroes.
One thing I hated about mufasa is the movie quite literally destroys the original lion king lore from the 1st movie and even the 2nd movie. They say scar was in love with Sarabi , a character who scar only knew for a day or so and became evil in 2 seconds because she didn’t like him. In the original movie there is literally no indication that Scar has feelings for Sarabi in fact he literally bitch slaps her in the original movie. The lion king 2 actually introduced scars love interest Zira. Scar even adopted her cubs as his own. In the lion king 2019 they introduced the idea of scar hating mufasa because Sarabi chose him over scar and decided to make that literally the entire reason for scar becoming evil in the 2024 film. Instead they should have made scar in love with Zira a lioness who they meet and mufasa does something bad to her that makes Scar go nuts. The conversation mufasa has with simba is also ruined. You may remember the great kings of the past conversation mufasa had with his son about what his father told him about the kings in the stars watching over him. That also got ruined in this new movie because mufassas father is NOT a king and literally dies within 10 minutes of the movie starting. So why did mufasa tell simba about the kings in the 2019 remake then?
Lion King CGI and Original Lion King Cartoons are separated universe. So for Original TLK counts The Lion Guard Series backstory, thats pretty much the only "good thing" of TLK 2019 and Mufasa
Mufasa wasn't even that great of a character in The Lion King. He was there to be dad, to be Simba's motivation. We knew what happened to him, there were no unanswered questions - he DIES, and Scar takes over, it's that easy. One of the things people were scared of with Sonic 3 was that Maria wouldn't die. The most emotional, most important part of Shadow's character... isn't exactly family friendly. Would they cut it out? Water it down? If they had done that, I think the series would have fallen apart on the spot.
It was still watered down, but to acceptable levels (in my opinion). They were selective for the films telling, for one reason or another, but they did still manage to tell the story.
@aaronlo9651 I mean in general shooting a child on screen would probably bump the age rating of the film up a few levels by it's self so it's understandable WHY they had to change that bit specifically.
There’s a difference between the two: Sega: somic 2 and sonic 3 was planned the entire time , like a way to continue the story Mufasa: unplanned , I don’t think the creators of the lion king EVER planned for this
The best part of the sonic movie franchise is that even though there will be many movies (most movie franchises like kung fu panda get worse the more movies are), each game has a good base for their own sequel, and the more movies come out, the more hype the audience gets if they want characters like charmy, cream, ect.
4:24 I actually see why they put shadow in the sonic movies much ealier.Because its a perfect parrarel of sonic losing long claw and shadow losing maria.Goodness this is almost the perfect sonic adventure 2 adaption i seen!
Yes. I think Disney, and other animation studios as well, have been stepping away from it because they’re more expensive and more time consuming. But that’s one of the best ways to show that a movie was made with love. Especially since in the CGI Lion King movies have absolutely no emotion in them.
Exactly. If people want to see a movie about Mufasa, I’m sure they’d also want it to look like the 90s lion king movie we all know and love, not soulless hyperrealistic garbage where they don’t express emotion at all.
@@auxvii Not to mention we have aslan, a cgi lion from a freaking 2005 movie, that is far more magestic and expressive than these souless "lion king" live actions
@ I am aware animation doesn’t make the whole movie (hoodwinked would be an example of that) but Disney witnessed the kind of backlash their 2019 TLK remake got, so I found it weird that they decided to make another in the same style anyway
As someone that is suffering from PTSD, I can really feel Shadow's pain. Him re-experiencing the traumatic event with Maria hit me hard that no other movie character has ever done. I actually almost felt like crying because it's a character I can empathize with.
To be clear this is not how you build a lasting franchise in 2024, it's simply how you build any lasting franchise. Respecting your product and creating something you care about and not just a corporate cash grab has always been a thing we just have seen it be ignored (mostly) for the last 10+ years.
We shouldnt bother crtiticizing disney, if they dont learn, they wont live, and maybe some of their better franchises will find new life in the hands of creatives eager to use them well or properly.
I mean…they’re making a series based off their Twisted Wonderland game, so maybe after that comes out, they may make a Kingdom Hearts movie based on how Twisted is received
A while back, that would've been awesome! Now, I'd find myself uncontrollably thinking "I wonder what stupid things they will do to a Kingdom Hearts Movie to f-k it up?"
As a KH fan, no. Please, never let Disney any closer to KH than they already are. They can send animators to help on the games, but trust me you don't want them at the helm.
My review of this review: I haven't seen Mufasa but judging from your description I can only say "yeah that sure does sound like Disney". And I don't doubt Sonic 3 is better, I do have a grip with your review regarding Sonic 3. The way you say that Sonic 3 respects it's audience is a bit wrong. The movie (spoiler I guess) keeps stating how characters feel and has to explain moments instead of having the moments speak for themselves. Best example is when Sonic is about to deliver the final attack on Shadow, it flashes back to the beginning of the movie with the police dude I can't remember the name of. If the movie respected the audience it would have let Sonics facial expressions speak for itself. Imo, that was Sonic 3 biggest weakness was telling the audience how to feel and laying on everything so thin when it could have used a lot more subtlety
If you ask, you should see Mufasa but in stream ... I suffer the disgrace to see it at cinema. I came out completely disappointed, maybe Disney fans love the development between Mufasa and the female lion (about how Scar help Mufasa to date with her) but not me. That was boring to me because was predictable, Scar's entire development is only to learn how to do a self-victimisation . That kind of characters made me feel ill.
And all Sonic great movies started from the director listening to the fans feedbacks That should tell you how listening to your fans can do wonders for you
I have seen sonic 3 today and i can all agree what you said in this video i love what they doing with the bond between shadow and Maria and sonic and Tom they have done this good ❤❤
Right? Never have I ever seen someone say “I would really like a live action (CGI) prequel movie of Simba’s dad and his brother and why Scar became evil in the first place even though it was made pretty damn clear in The Lion King”
If nobody asked for it then maybe you can explain why it’s outperforming sonic 3 by over 100 million. Sonic 3 is the better movie but the d riding by fanboys is embarrassing
@@katylepetsos7512concept wise that sounds much more appealing than “let’s just remake an old video game into a movie”. The execution was just poor. Sonic 3 was the opposite, generic video game adaptation, but they actually did a good job
Jeff Fowler, director of Sonic 3, stated multiple times how this movie was basically a passion project, since one of his first projects as a professional animator was the Shadow the Hedgehog cinematic, it really shows how much he wanted to make the character justice. Meanwhile Barry Jenkins, director of Mufasa, while being a competent director, acknowledged that Mufasa was simply a work for hire which he may regretted working for. He later said working on a CGI film like Mufasa wasn't really his thing and he wouldn't really be interested in directing a film like that again. That really puts into perspective about which studio respected their viewers the most
Disney: i feel to lazy and run out of ideas so let's dig in the recycle bin and become clout chasers Paramount pictures: *actually tries to make a good movie and made the best movie in the world called sonic 3*
Thanks for the review! I have not watched the Sonic trilogy before. But after watching this, now I feel I should watch them. On a side note, I doubt if The Lion King is even Disney's original story. I was shared by a friend that there was already an old hand-drawn animation of the 'Lion King' from Japan way before Disney adapted it into their animation movie. If that's true, the Mufasa movie probably proves the mouse's studio actual talent - or lack thereof.
The Japanese one you're talking about is "Kimba the White Lion" which was supposedly used as inspiration. The Lion King is also based on Shakespeare's Hamlet. Every story has an origin tho tbh. Creativity doesn't exist in a vacuum.
The next movie probably gonna be about Sonic CD. So after i would suggest 2 others, Sonic 4 talking about Chaos (sonic adventure 1) and Shadow the Hedgehog talking about the Shadow game, and these 2 happen simultaneously, as Shadow in sonic adventure 1 don't seen to work for me
Honestly, considering every factor, I am not surprised that Disney keep getting beaten to the ground by everyone these days, and those who defend them also joined the sinking ship. It really does show, that when you care for your fans, they will care for you back, Paramount and SEGA proved so, and I’m up for it!
Sega: you want another Sonic movie?

This! I went with my brother to see Sonic 3 and every 5 seconds, we were laughing so hard. Jim Carrey is an absolute legend and though he deserves to retire when he's ready, I'm SO glad he came back for this one and even played TWO characters! 🥰
Kid's movies used to have some really heavy themes in them when I was a kid. Littlefoot's mother dying in "The Land Before time" hit my entire generation hard. Even disney wasn't afraid to back then, I remember how emotional it was when Bambi's Mother died. Disney is took afraid to take risk anymore because they think its better to rest on their laurels which will cost them in the long run. Also I hate how they totally changed Scar's backstory. In the Lion King, Scar was angry because he was the oldest yet Mufasa was the king. Scar felt that he had been robbed of his birthright. But Scar being mad about not getting the girl? That's basically a footnote in every person's life and it doesn't make him seem like the powerful villian who sucessfuly overthrown Mufasa and claimed his throne by force.
And DreamWorks isn't Afraid to take risk like Puss in Boots 2 for example it tackles Death and Depicts a panic attack perfectly
@@comadoof184 Children should learn that life is not sunshine and rainbows every day of their lives. I learned that the hard way growing up.
Dealing with heavy themes with wisdom is a good way to get adults to enjoy the story.
There's even a phrase i heard that seems to be from C.S Lewis, dunno if is from him tough but i agree: "If a children story can only teach and entertain children, it is a bad children story"
Land Before Time was done by Don Bluth, not Disney. In fact, Bluth's leaving Disney and making stuff like Land Before Time and American Tail was one of the things that pushed Disney out of their dark age and into their Renaissance in the 1990's and early 2000s.
It wasn't just animated children's movies, but live action children's movies as well. I remember that ending for the film my girl where (spoiler alert) Macaulay Culkin's character dies being attacked from hornets.
Fixing Mufasa in 3 easy steps:
1. Make king a good, loving king to his people but an absolute monster to his mate for her failure to produce an heir for him. Then, finally, after years she begins raising a son who begins showing the traits of his father. In a moment tramatic flash back that overlays the king's face with her son's she attacks her son and gives him the classic "scar"
2. The queen is then banished for attacking the heir, but not before they discover she is with child. Alone, she gives birth and raises him, Mufasa, to have the traits she beleives a king should have.
3. Mufasa's heritige is revealed to him and he returns just in time to foil the plot of his older brother, Scar. The king, seeing Scar for what he truely is, crowns Mufasa. Mufasa, being kind, does not banish Scar like the old king banished their mother, but Scar sees not mercy, but weakness in his younger brother, thus setting up the events of Lion King.
The quote that broke Mufasa's back was said by Shadow: "A light still shines even though the star is gone" IYKYK😢

THIS
Detective Pikachu proved videogame movies work. Mario proved they’re profitable. But Sonic, proved they can be worth the investment, maybe even whole cinematic universe/franchise, if you respect the source material and listen to the fans. When “Live and Learn” came on, I was on the edge of my sight with joy.
heheh, edge.
*"HANGING ON THE E D G E OF TO TOMORROW!"*
I was REALLY hoping we'd get some All Hail Shadow but maybe it's too early for that.
They’re profitable because the fans would watch anything lmao. Let’s not pretend they’re all good. The first two sonic movies were mid at best. Detective pikachu was weird, and didn’t make much. Mario was a hit, but the movie itself was ok.
Sonic 3 is an anomaly, and even with all the fanboys backing it, mufasa is still outperforming it.
@@UltraEpicVidsNo Mufasa isn’t outperforming it. Mufasa is currently the #1 movie worldwide, but that’s only because sonic hasn’t even RELEASED worldwide yet. And disney is straight up LYING to people about being the #1 movie in america, because sonic 3 made almost DOUBLE of what mufasa grossed on the first day of release. Mario did well because let’s face it- its simply just more popular than sonic. But sonic was able to innovate. Mario wasn’t able to make another 2 movies because they didnt even plan for that. Sonic 4 is gonna be sick, wether you want to believe it or not
@ what are you talking about lmao, sonic 3 is international, and it grossed 336 million worldwide. Mufasa has grossed 476 million. It’s not even close.
How tf do you know how good sonic 4 will be? We literally know nothing about it. The fanboy d riding is real

Sonic 3: The best film adaptation of a video game ever made!
Mufasa: A boring prequel nobody asked for that should have been a straight to DVD release like the Disney prequels/sequels made in the early 2000s.
As a kid, I used to think that Scar was a cool villain, but after seeing his backstory that I never asked for, I realize he's a whiny delusional simp like Anakin Skywalker! Thanks a lot Disney for ruining another one of my favorite characters. /:
Redirect:
Anakin was made into that before Disney ever entered the chat
Here's a solution: Let's forget Mufasa ever existed and pretend that it's just one big nightmare
That was, it won't ruin the cool ass villian Scar was made to be in the beginning
Okay first off, a lot of TLK fans asked for a prequel for 30 years! Second, they finally got it and they loved it! You guys hating for nonrwson
@@DisneyGirl2004here comes the Disney adult preaching
Releasing it straight to DVD is too kind.......The movie, and its script, should have been dropped straight in the trash the moment it was conceived.......
The thing is, almost all of the works Disney is known for are taken from existing stories, meaning that Disney's expertise has been in *adapting* stories, not creating them. In particular, they took stories that were very dark and adapted them to be family friendly, while altering bits to give them a happy end; any existing themes were likely from the work they borrowed from. I think this and Wish tell you all you need to know about their ability to create a story from scratch.
It tells me that they should go back to "things that actually worked" lol. But Ik they won't, so I've been just peachy not sending them my money
To be fair, they did the same to Sonic. They took something existing and made up a new story.
The did the same thing with Mufasa and Wicked.
Moana is actually new and creative in its own way.
I remember walking out of the theaters the day after Sonic 3 came out, and I saw one dude with his younger brother coming out of the theater, and the little brother was just beaming with joy and just extatic about the movie while his older brother was talking well about it too, and seemed to enjoy it quite a bit. I can't say the same about Mufasa.
Taking your kids to see Mufasa is a message to say "I hate you as my child"
taking your kid to see Sonic 3 is a message to say "I love you as my child"
@@JustYourAverageCrazyy Pretty much
@ my family hates the sonic movies but I'm the only one who actually wants to see it
Sonic 3 is so goated now they have McDonald’s happy meals based on the movie, loving it ❤
love that too
To be fair, McD always collaborated with movies as cross-advertising. They had happy meal toys for Sonic 2 so them doing Sonic 3 isn't that far off. I worked at McDonald’s when they promoted Sonic 2 and I still have all the toys plus the display.
No shit? Doesn’t every McDonald’s collab get happy meal toys?
the funniest thing is that the video game sonic 3 also had a mcdonald’s promotion
Spoiler alert!!🚨 Sonic 3 was very good. The moment shadow punched Tom at the GUN HQ and seeing Shadow made a huge mistake for misidentity because Tom was in disguise. Shadow realized at that moment his anger and rage was clouding him. When Sonic appeared and saw what Shadow did to Tom. I've never seen Sonic so angry. You could almost feel Sonic's motions boiling up. That felt very real. That scene was very good writing.
ADD IN A SPOILER WARNING MAN.
yeah i saw the movie but you should probably put a warning
edit: thanks
Warning plz
But yeah. You can even hear how pained Sonic feels in that moment as Tom is practically left hospitalized. I can only imagine how he’ll react to seeing a remorseful Shadow finding his way into Green Hill and apologizing for the things he almost did.
Shadow 1*
So much for a spoiler warning lmao.
Jokes aside, I swear that scene with Sonic being so angry was honestly the scariest thing I've ever seen.
And I've seen the original movie Sonic design.
I'll put it this way: Me and my friend, who's not a Sonic fan but knows how much of a fan I am, went to see Sonic 3 on release date.
We had a blast throughout the whole movie, with her even reacting to Live and Learn before I did and she got GOOSEBUMPS on that one scene on the 3rd act (IYKYK).
Her veredict? "So, when are watching this again? Because we ARE gonna watch it again, right? Just give me a call and we're game"
That's what you want: An accessible and entertaining movie regardless of age and audience.
Her verdict on Mufasa tho?
"Girl, that sh*t was REALLY BAD"
At this point, I don't even care if Mufasa earns billions on the international box office, but they'll never live out the fact they were caught blatantly LYING 2 weekends in a row due to Sonic 3's success on the domestic box.
You know what's the worst thing? That you can appeal to nostalgia and have deepness at the same time, and it being a success either monetary or by the appreciation from the fandom.
Transformers One did it, and it gave everyone an insane amount of red flags when the trailer was released.
Part of the reason why transformers one was good was because everyone thought it was going to be shit. The marketing team did a bad job showing what kind of movie it was, but at the same time, if they did any more, it would kinda spoil the story.
Sega & Paramount Does what Disney don’t
I see what you did there.
My favourite part of sonic 3 was the reference to the first cutscene of sa2 that I was not expecting. That was enough for me to know that is was a good movie.
I saw it coming the moment he got in the helicopter, but it was great.
Sega really redeemed themselves over the 2020s
Even with sonic 1 and 2 and the knuckles series? Sonic 3 is an anomaly, other than that they’ve been doing just as bad as Disney
0:10 Funny that it transitioned to Sonic Superstars after he said "a soulless cash grab".
I watched Sonic 3 and mufasa on the same day. And obviously, Sonic 3 took the cake. Not only was it FULL of amazing references, the movie had heart. I laughed, I genuinely cried, and I was happy watching this. The emotion and the story in the movie was delivered so beautifully. The entire time I was watching mufasa, I didn’t smile, I didn’t laugh, I didn’t even come close to having my eyes water, I just sat there emotionless waiting for the movie to be over so I could leave the theaters. That’s what happens when you actually put your heart and soul in your films Disney, you should take some notes from the fastest creature in the universe.
Sonic 3 was also based on nostalgia but done absolutely right by sticking to the source material.
The question you need to ask is, "Will anyone be watching these movies in 30 years?"
Mufasa will be forgotten.
As a massive Shadow the Hedgehog fan defending the sonic the hedgehog 3 movie, I'm sick and tired of Disney dirty tactics, for them to bully theatres compelling them to put up more screens for mufasa was evil beyond measure and for them to just Lie, boast and brag, about their soulless piece trash film being number one just made things worse on themselves, I've already seen mufasa once in the UK last year and i did NOT like the film not one bit, it was boring, colourless and Lifeless. I went to see sonic movie 3 to root for my boi Shadow the hedgehog as i seen the film 3 times even in 4DX which was an amazing experience...
@ATAndreiThomas: 🙂 I am glad that you did enjoy the movie. 🙂 I, have watched Sonic 3 six times.
And now this month Sonic 3 will release internationally
@@abrahampena1263 just wait to Sonic 3 comes out on Blu-Ray. They'll be even more sales, while Mufasa will just be watched on Disney+ for free.
@@abrahampena1263: 🙂 I know. 🙂 Sonic 3, will be released on Wednesday, January 15th. 🙏 Hopefully the movie will be seen by millions of more people.
You got the with the last year part 😅
If Sonic 3 can handle Shadow this well then I can’t wait to see how they handle Metal Sonic in Sonic 4.
And honestly the fact that we see that Metal Sonic is a mass produced badnick in the movie’s world can easily make Metal Sonic’s story even better than it was in Heroes
Having just watched the film in the cinema, Sonic 3 was absolutely filled with references, and despite its child friendly nature, it was absolutely great.
I hoped on animating to beat Disney. Looks like I failed because I didn’t a contacts or a team to pay. - Nathan
I love how sonic 3 doesnt dumb down shadows back story for kids they actually show a child dying
Imagine if they were able to get away with showing the original way she died...since avoiding higher age ratings is probably the main reason they changed it.

You're right, Mufasa is nostalgia bait. Unfair.

I held back tears in Sonic 3
Never shed a tear watching Mufasa

That scene where Sonic fucking MOON PUNCHED SHADOW WITH THE CHAOS EMERALDS, my jaw dropped. You could feel the anger he did in the theater, who wouldnt feel anger over seeing someone they love being hurt? Shadow was so overtaken by his own grief that he couldnt feel anything for Sonic, not until they have their talk on the moon
Also the dance scene with both robotniks is peak, i love Galvanize.

Oh yes this movie is beyond perfect like Transformers One
Yeah I wish people watched TFONE more than it got
Transformers One had horrible marketing. I had no interest in it. When it came out on Paramount my kid insisted we watch it. I was dreading it. Turns out it was one of the best movies I’ve seen this year.
@@SpecialAgentEBunny yeah it really is a good movie that the 1st trailer absolutely messed it up
What's crazy is that my parents wanted to watch this movie. They are middle aged, never once showed an interest in the sonic universe, and they don't even really like Jim Carey too much, while Mufasa should be up their alley, theyd rather watch Sonic with me. They were invested and not too lost in many scenes despite not knowing anything in the lore. It is such a great movie and I'm already anticipating the fourth one!!
If you have ever played a sonic game, you know they are going in the direction of the games, darker stories. This is amazing, I recommend playing games like SA2, because it gets even deeper than what the movie touches on. Next movie, I hope, touches on the technology v nature of maybe sonic CD or Heroes.
Even deeper? In what way?
@ in the game Gerald is executed by firing squad, Maria’s death is very intentional shot, and the biolizard is a thing which is its own can of worms
Ah yes, Souljen's Animated intro to Lythero's video.
Sega: What inspired you to make a prequel of The Lion King, that ended up being lazy as hell?
Disney: Money.
No. Disney should live and learn.
One thing I hated about mufasa is the movie quite literally destroys the original lion king lore from the 1st movie and even the 2nd movie. They say scar was in love with Sarabi , a character who scar only knew for a day or so and became evil in 2 seconds because she didn’t like him. In the original movie there is literally no indication that Scar has feelings for Sarabi in fact he literally bitch slaps her in the original movie. The lion king 2 actually introduced scars love interest Zira. Scar even adopted her cubs as his own. In the lion king 2019 they introduced the idea of scar hating mufasa because Sarabi chose him over scar and decided to make that literally the entire reason for scar becoming evil in the 2024 film. Instead they should have made scar in love with Zira a lioness who they meet and mufasa does something bad to her that makes Scar go nuts.
The conversation mufasa has with simba is also ruined. You may remember the great kings of the past conversation mufasa had with his son about what his father told him about the kings in the stars watching over him. That also got ruined in this new movie because mufassas father is NOT a king and literally dies within 10 minutes of the movie starting. So why did mufasa tell simba about the kings in the 2019 remake then?
Lion King CGI and Original Lion King Cartoons are separated universe. So for Original TLK counts The Lion Guard Series backstory, thats pretty much the only "good thing" of TLK 2019 and Mufasa
Mufasa wasn't even that great of a character in The Lion King. He was there to be dad, to be Simba's motivation. We knew what happened to him, there were no unanswered questions - he DIES, and Scar takes over, it's that easy.
One of the things people were scared of with Sonic 3 was that Maria wouldn't die. The most emotional, most important part of Shadow's character... isn't exactly family friendly. Would they cut it out? Water it down? If they had done that, I think the series would have fallen apart on the spot.
Maria still died but she didn't get shot instead died from an explosion.
It was still watered down, but to acceptable levels (in my opinion). They were selective for the films telling, for one reason or another, but they did still manage to tell the story.
They change how she died but they didnt change the emotional impact from her death. They didnt watered down shadow's immense grief and loss
@aaronlo9651 I mean in general shooting a child on screen would probably bump the age rating of the film up a few levels by it's self so it's understandable WHY they had to change that bit specifically.
It crazy how they’re not original anymore, because its “safe”
There’s a difference between the two:
Sega: somic 2 and sonic 3 was planned the entire time , like a way to continue the story
Mufasa: unplanned , I don’t think the creators of the lion king EVER planned for this
*"Rise of Gru annihilates Lightyear"*
*"Sonic 3 destroys Mufasa'*
The best part of the sonic movie franchise is that even though there will be many movies (most movie franchises like kung fu panda get worse the more movies are), each game has a good base for their own sequel, and the more movies come out, the more hype the audience gets if they want characters like charmy, cream, ect.
4:24 I actually see why they put shadow in the sonic movies much ealier.Because its a perfect parrarel of sonic losing long claw and shadow losing maria.Goodness this is almost the perfect sonic adventure 2 adaption i seen!
First step to making Mufasa work is to go back to the original hand drawn aesthetic
Yes. I think Disney, and other animation studios as well, have been stepping away from it because they’re more expensive and more time consuming. But that’s one of the best ways to show that a movie was made with love. Especially since in the CGI Lion King movies have absolutely no emotion in them.
Exactly. If people want to see a movie about Mufasa, I’m sure they’d also want it to look like the 90s lion king movie we all know and love, not soulless hyperrealistic garbage where they don’t express emotion at all.
@@auxvii Not to mention we have aslan, a cgi lion from a freaking 2005 movie, that is far more magestic and expressive than these souless "lion king" live actions
There are a lot of things wrong with mufasa but it being not 2d animated isn’t one of them
@ I am aware animation doesn’t make the whole movie (hoodwinked would be an example of that) but Disney witnessed the kind of backlash their 2019 TLK remake got, so I found it weird that they decided to make another in the same style anyway
The moral of this story:
-Never send a mouse to do a hedgehog's job.
Disney acting like a brain rot child and paramount being a chad
Ur brain rot bud
As someone that is suffering from PTSD, I can really feel Shadow's pain. Him re-experiencing the traumatic event with Maria hit me hard that no other movie character has ever done. I actually almost felt like crying because it's a character I can empathize with.

Disney: *Won't shut up, and endlessly complains.*

Sonic 3 is starting to make a profit. Mufasa still needs to make 500k to break even
To be clear this is not how you build a lasting franchise in 2024, it's simply how you build any lasting franchise. Respecting your product and creating something you care about and not just a corporate cash grab has always been a thing we just have seen it be ignored (mostly) for the last 10+ years.
Fr, any company that "subverts" all it's franchises for subversion's sake is allergic to money. This is just good business and serving your customers.
This deserves more views.
No it dosent it’s just the same video everyone is making and the editing is basic as shit
Disney has lived so long you thought that they would be able to learn something..
I loved your review on mufasa and sonic 3 I think you explained it really well😊
Thank you
I guess you could say...👓...Disney should Live and Learn.
I actually got a Sonic 3 ad for the video, lol. Mufasa keeps getting roasted to oblivion
We shouldnt bother crtiticizing disney, if they dont learn, they wont live, and maybe some of their better franchises will find new life in the hands of creatives eager to use them well or properly.
Only in the public domain...
As long as Iger still lives, they'll never learn.
Even McDonald’s dissed Mufasa and instead started making sonic movie three toys
If Disney was not so stupid, they would make a Kingdom Hearts Movie
I mean…they’re making a series based off their Twisted Wonderland game, so maybe after that comes out, they may make a Kingdom Hearts movie based on how Twisted is received
Feels like these latest controversies are exactly why we’re not getting it.
Kingdom Hearts feels hard to make a film adaptation especially due to its lore.
A while back, that would've been awesome! Now, I'd find myself uncontrollably thinking "I wonder what stupid things they will do to a Kingdom Hearts Movie to f-k it up?"
As a KH fan, no. Please, never let Disney any closer to KH than they already are. They can send animators to help on the games, but trust me you don't want them at the helm.
My review of this review:
I haven't seen Mufasa but judging from your description I can only say "yeah that sure does sound like Disney".
And I don't doubt Sonic 3 is better, I do have a grip with your review regarding Sonic 3. The way you say that Sonic 3 respects it's audience is a bit wrong. The movie (spoiler I guess) keeps stating how characters feel and has to explain moments instead of having the moments speak for themselves. Best example is when Sonic is about to deliver the final attack on Shadow, it flashes back to the beginning of the movie with the police dude I can't remember the name of. If the movie respected the audience it would have let Sonics facial expressions speak for itself.
Imo, that was Sonic 3 biggest weakness was telling the audience how to feel and laying on everything so thin when it could have used a lot more subtlety
If you ask, you should see Mufasa but in stream ...
I suffer the disgrace to see it at cinema. I came out completely disappointed, maybe Disney fans love the development between Mufasa and the female lion (about how Scar help Mufasa to date with her) but not me. That was boring to me because was predictable, Scar's entire development is only to learn how to do a self-victimisation . That kind of characters made me feel ill.
And all Sonic great movies started from the director listening to the fans feedbacks
That should tell you how listening to your fans can do wonders for you
I have seen sonic 3 today and i can all agree what you said in this video i love what they doing with the bond between shadow and Maria and sonic and Tom they have done this good ❤❤
Im sorry, but what did Disney expect from a movie that ABSOLUTELY NOBODY ASKED FOR.
Right? Never have I ever seen someone say “I would really like a live action (CGI) prequel movie of Simba’s dad and his brother and why Scar became evil in the first place even though it was made pretty damn clear in The Lion King”
If nobody “asked” for it, then nobody would have went and watched it but they did.
If nobody asked for it then maybe you can explain why it’s outperforming sonic 3 by over 100 million. Sonic 3 is the better movie but the d riding by fanboys is embarrassing
@@katylepetsos7512concept wise that sounds much more appealing than “let’s just remake an old video game into a movie”. The execution was just poor. Sonic 3 was the opposite, generic video game adaptation, but they actually did a good job
Jeff Fowler, director of Sonic 3, stated multiple times how this movie was basically a passion project, since one of his first projects as a professional animator was the Shadow the Hedgehog cinematic, it really shows how much he wanted to make the character justice.
Meanwhile Barry Jenkins, director of Mufasa, while being a competent director, acknowledged that Mufasa was simply a work for hire which he may regretted working for. He later said working on a CGI film like Mufasa wasn't really his thing and he wouldn't really be interested in directing a film like that again.
That really puts into perspective about which studio respected their viewers the most
they've lived and never learned
Disney: i feel to lazy and run out of ideas so let's dig in the recycle bin and become clout chasers
Paramount pictures: *actually tries to make a good movie and made the best movie in the world called sonic 3*

Thanks for the review! I have not watched the Sonic trilogy before. But after watching this, now I feel I should watch them.
On a side note, I doubt if The Lion King is even Disney's original story. I was shared by a friend that there was already an old hand-drawn animation of the 'Lion King' from Japan way before Disney adapted it into their animation movie. If that's true, the Mufasa movie probably proves the mouse's studio actual talent - or lack thereof.
The Japanese one you're talking about is "Kimba the White Lion" which was supposedly used as inspiration. The Lion King is also based on Shakespeare's Hamlet.
Every story has an origin tho tbh. Creativity doesn't exist in a vacuum.
Paramount to disney:
Paramount: Wanna see a magic trick?
Disney: no....

2. Trust your creatives
3. Focus on telling good stories

The next movie probably gonna be about Sonic CD. So after i would suggest 2 others, Sonic 4 talking about Chaos (sonic adventure 1) and Shadow the Hedgehog talking about the Shadow game, and these 2 happen simultaneously, as Shadow in sonic adventure 1 don't seen to work for me
Sonic 3 is a great movie, 9/10, and the only reason it's not 10/10 is because Robotnic said "damn" and nit Shadow.
Disney just has to live and learn
Honestly, considering every factor, I am not surprised that Disney keep getting beaten to the ground by everyone these days, and those who defend them also joined the sinking ship.
It really does show, that when you care for your fans, they will care for you back, Paramount and SEGA proved so, and I’m up for it!
I feel like the random Disney+ ad I got in the middle feels like another desperate attempt from Disney to try and make me look away from Sonic xD
I really think Disney needs to keep on living because if they dont their gonna learn that no one care for their most of their movies
