Okay let's clarify some things! Overall, I think the movie was really really good! And of course I did miss things on the first watch - big one: There IS a 2nd post-credits scene which I didn't see. Shadow lives. Unfortunately, I was told there wasn't one so didn't get to see it. (Does make me wonder how they'll work with that in future movies now but we'll see.) The Shadow-General grudge was moreso about being frozen into stasis which I just forgot, fair enough. And if I DID mishear the final hit as a fart (specifially the 'poke' not the disintergrating bit) then maybe that's on the noisy cinema I watched this in. Sometimes mistakes happen. But also it WAS still a quill-up-the-butt-instant-kill finale. Which is kinda meh to me. Despite the negatively worded title, I still think this Sonic Movie is great! And is more a Paramount thing than a Sonic thing itself. It's definitely been a steady increase in quality, and I'm super hyped for Sonic 4. And I would absolutely recommend this movie to be watched to others!
Personally I saw it as giving Jim Carrey 2 deaths and 2 send offs for what I hope is his last move in this series. The first he goes out in the most Jim Carrey way possible with a stupid gag. With the other he goes out with all the respect he as an actor and Eggman as a character deserve. When I look at it like that I really like it.
Honestly, I would’ve preferred if this was the last Sonic movie as it would’ve made a nice ending to the trilogy. I am hyped for Sonic 4 but, am kinda disappointed that they decided to keep going instead of ending it with this one.
Things he missed: 1. It wasn't a fart sound that played during Geralds death, it was a "bzzt" electric sound. 2. Eggman striking the moon wasn't a snapcube reference as the moon was blown up by Eggman in the events of SA2. 3. Shadow saw the General as he was being lowered in the pool.
Shadow isn't dead. The post, POST credit scene, reveals he survived. Also, Walters didn't cause the explosion, Shadow was pissed at him because he ordered Shadow be put in stasis for 50 years.
This dude literally never gives anything a chance, even if he enjoys it at first, he’ll find something to whine endlessly about, only thing he likes is the first SpongeBob movie, he didn’t even see the Plankton Movie yet (when it leaked) and already hates it, unless it is the first SB movie, he will only rant, not REVIEW like it says in his name
I didnt have an issue with Geralds death, me and my mum laughed when he popped like a bug in a zapper. I didnt even hear that there was a fart noise? Why is the moon being attacked always a snapcube reference? It happens in the game, half the moon is sliced off instead of being exploded, whats the issue? Let the snapcube joke die off already please.
It is an issue because it treats the character as a complete joke. In SA2, Gerald died executed by a firing squad, after delivering a chilling speech of revenge. In the movie, by having him alive in modern days, they make him too farcical to be involved with the tragedy of Maria's loss. And it creates long term issues when adapting a ShTH spin-off, since one of the redeeming parts of that game was giving Gerald a silver lining, having built the Eclipse Cannon to fight off the Black Arms originally.
@@yrooxrksvi7142 That's why the game and movie versions are not compatible, they are two different characters, with similar goals but are written in different ways; where one was a good person with a desire to help, but was driven mad by the death of his family, while the other has no redeemabile qualities, aside from his desire to "avenge" for Maria's death. You are thinking in the context of both the game and movie, when they have shouldn't be.
@@truemetalsonic I come to this as someone who didn’t know anything before watching the movies, so I have no idea what “snapcube” or “pissing on the moon” means. 😂
It not a snap cube reference, it's taken directly from SA2 where the eclipse Canon destroyed part of the moon. Also, the machine is called the eclipse Canon right in the movie.
Funny enough your exactly right, imo I feel some scenes and fights should have been longer especially sonic vs shadow since that was the main marketing and we only got like 2 min of them fighting (it was a beautiful 2 minutes) though I believe we should have had longer imo we really need an epic definitive battle for th3se 2 and I feel the fight was cut pretty short even the fight scenes we did get were weakened cause a lot of them were used in the trailers (I still cried at the moon scene though) the rest was peak
Actually they did reveal after all the credits they reveal that shadow is alive but as for shadow's beef with walters they do show that HE did seal him and even suggested it
I am so thankful that Amy and Rouge were not added into the plot. Oh my goodness, they would’ve taken away so much of the development that the trio really needed and delivered.
I just feel like Amy should’ve been introduced before shadow, because she’s moreso a part of the main cast, and shadow and maybe rouge should’ve been in 4
My only complaint was that Dr Eggman got too much screen time. I wanted to see more of Shadow and Marie flashbacks. I wanted more of a conversation between Sonic and Shadow.
And of course SPOILERS Him dying in the end of the movie. I hope it’s not permanent, or at least find a way to make his assistant a new eggman. Idk, it’s just that, at least to me that is, it wouldn’t feel like a Sonic franchise without eggman.
The only thing that I disliked was the entire Gerald Ivo fight. The two Robotnik's fighting could have been really well done, but instead it was so...Bad. Everything else tho, amazingly well done! Tails and Knuckles knowing stuff early is easily explainable. Tails has his tech. They probably saw them fight and then got ready to help. Or even, Eggman seemed to know they were there. So they probably were there for a while, we just could not see them as we saw it from Gerald's perspective. Everyone also knew that Shadow turned good cause...He was outside the damn window. They could see him help Sonic! And Chaos Control isn't a catchphrase. It is a technique he can only use with Chaos Emeralds. Something he didn't have throughout most of the movie, meaning he could not use it
Yeah regarding the Eggman fight thing, it was jarring to go from "this is a suicide mission" and "you're no maria" to Gerald spanking Eggman with a giant glove.
@@supersonicbro Or from Sonic and Shadow turning Super with Live and Learn blasting as amazingly as ever, into the bug fighting...If I could remove this one scene from the movie, and have them have a verbal argument before Gerald slaps him down with the giant hand, I'd argue the film was flawless. And it does pain me to say this, but Jim Carrey was the weakest part of the entire film. Most scenes were still really good, and especially Gerald he played amazingly, but compared to the rest, he really was the weak link (Which does pain me to say)
7:12 gotta disagree man sonic unleashed would need to set up the fact that their are two gods in the earth the emeralds have sacred temples built into the earth defying all lore and also ya know The were hog
emeralds having temples would still be fine if it's written off by being there before the echidnas formed the master emerald. Some liberties need to be taken but they can certainly find a way to get them in there. Same with the ancients. Honestly? I just wanna see Sage ngl, my favorite character tbh.
i feel your pain, in my packed theater i had to sit next to a kid who was trying so hard to be funny talking and whispering to his brother even during the emotional and serious scenes, i tried politely shushing him to be quiet but he kept chatting. my add had a hard time concentrating on the movie and he even spilled pickle juice on the floor even though his mum strictly said "no pickles". i'm never going to a theater for a movie that might even remotely be for kids ever again even if its animated.
Bro I saw the movie today and there were 2 teenagers behind me talking and in the big emotional scene he just goes “Womp womp” and was randomly saying things like “Check tuesday check tuesday” or some bs like that
@@ueeee_ray not saying it was, I'll just stream or wait for home release next time. I If i'm gonna see and enjoy a movie i can't have anyone making distractions or ruining a scene where i'm supposed to feel something and connect with the characters.
No I like the whole series. I like the knuckles show and the first two movies. I think they all have different charm. The sonic fanbase is pretty toxic alot of time 😅 they never agree on what's good . This was by far my favorite movie in the series :)
shadow survived the explosion. we know this becuase there was a second end credits scene that showed shadow puicking the things he dropped earlier back up.
11:07 but eggman knows shadow switches sides. Gerald sees shadow flying with Sonic towards him, that's why the gun robos are released and makes a big thing about it with eggman right next to him. Shadow knowing eggman is "good" is a lot flimsier, but eggman has repeatedly let it known to shadow that he doesn't want the earth destroyed, he wants to rule it, so that could be how shadow knows eggman is good now
I am still confused how they missed the opportunity to give Eggman and Gerald the mechas that they use in Sonic Adventure 2 to fight each other and instead made it some middle school level fight, I think so many of these weird moments and missed opportunities all come from the fact that this movie is a pg when the story it wanted to adapt fitted a movie with a 12 rating instead. But still it’s just so weird because PG movies don’t have to be goofy, like Puss in Boots 2 was acclaimed and praised all round and it was a PG movie, and it was also much darker than this movie
I’m confused if this guy actually watched the movie. “There’s no ARK, it’s all set in London”???? The first part is like HALF true because the eclipse cannon is basically like the ARK but smaller but I am surprised that ANYONE could say that it’s ALL in London, which it absolutely is not. This is such a weird video 😭
I don’t understand what you mean at 12:37. They did include live and learn, and had city escape as a ringtone, I don’t know a song that could be more popular than those 2
Oh, man, I didn't hear the ringtone. ALSO, Sonic does the whole " What!? No in-flight food or movies? Talk about low-budget flights, I'm outta here! " line when they're getting ready to jump from the aircraft
Shadow isn’t dead. They immediately reveal that he’s alive in the second post credit scene, which I thought was actually a bad decision because it kind of kills what we thought was the consequence of this movie, should have been revealed that he’s not gone in either the next movie or the one after that
@spectorjz4447 That doesn’t mean they needed to reveal that he’s not dead literally right after his “death”. Kills the impact of his sacrifice. And in SA2 they never revealed he was alive until later games
@@1234_Flux Apparently, a lot of people didn’t. I was the only one who did at my screening. Since Sonic can teleport, it seemed a no-brainer to me that he could have gotten himself and Robotnik out of danger. I think the producers have left themselves an opening depending on whether or not Jim Carrey decides to come back. After all, he could easily have “died” in Sonic 2.
I hate when people critique jokes as if they were serious. There was no fart sound (not that I heard at least) and him getting zapped like a bug is the joke 😭 the joke is that it's anticlimactic
If Sonic gets a 4th Sonic movie I feel like the main villain would be Chaos the water monster🌊also of all these video game movies a Super Smash Bros movie might be possible⭐
@@TheSupaman98 Metal Sonic in that credits sequence definitely isn't "big bad" material, considering a certain someone took out a dozen of them in seconds...
I figured the scorpion and mantis fight was likely to reference/easter egg Scorpius (Badnik in the shape of a scorpion with Eggman's face) from Sonic Spinball and the Mantis badnik that has different iterations in Sonic games and shows. I predicted at least one fart joke when that's seen as funny from kids. This has a 2nd post-credits scene after all the credits roll revealing Shadow picking up one of his inhibitor rings (He will likely come back in the 4th film). As for Robotnik, he'll come back if Jim Carrey still needs money (He revealed coming out of retirement for the money). I loved this film and thought it was the best out of the trilogy. Although you made some valid points, I wasn't expecting perfection either but at least enjoyed how this adaptation gives us a new iteration of the Sonic universe while being faithful to the games.
Someone can find the cure to all cancers and this dude will be like: "its brilliant that cancer is solved but erm it doesnt come in different flavors so it sucks"
I can tell you with absolute confidence the 'bug fight' was just Jim Carrey doing improv on set and they CGI'd over whatever he made up. He was just dancing around (by himself mind, since he's both characters) swatting at the air and making sound effects. Since they believe Jim is their main draw they just shipped it off to the VFX team.
I loved Sonic 3 as well… But… (Minor Spoiler Warning for those who haven’t seen the movie) The scene where Shadow knocks out Sonic in the base felt kinda… oddly edited in my opinion. I don’t know, how it cut to and from Shadow’s punch felt like it was edited for commercials/trailers and not a full movie. It felt kinda off. Maybe it’s because that clip of Shadow punching was used so much in trailers that I can’t unsee it being a trailer clip.
I love that there are literally 3 comments on this video: 1: “Erm akchually the moon cannon wasn’t a snap cube reference it was from SA2!” 2: “Erm akchually Shadow survived!” 3: “ERM AKCHUALYYYYY that wasn’t a fart noise”
Isn't it weird how they haven't released any movies on June 23rd yet? Not only because Summer Blockbusters make a lot of money but also because that is literally Sonic's birthday and also kids don't have school.
Robotniks knew Shadow changes his mind because they saw him going super with Sonic from the Moon but I agree with Knuckles and Tails deus ex machina to space part also shadow cant say chaos control and do time-space warp because he did that when he had an emerald in SA2 and they changed how those work in the movie, maybe he will say and do it in his own movie
Bro is too picky on some of of this, and he nitpicks the fart joke in the 3rd movie but doesn’t seem have much of a problem with it in the beginning of the second movie
The only problems that i have with are 1.amy was the reason shadow changed to good so why isnt she here 2.why didnt maria die because of being shot that would be perfect for him realizing what maria was saying 3. It would be amazing for tom’s dad to be the man that shot maria the timeline makes sense 4.why the fart joke!!!!!
About amy being replaced, It actually works thematically to have movie sonic deliver the speech instead as he’s been through the exact same arc as shadow and can relate. It’s great to focus solely on shadow and Sonic’s dynamic, rather than shoe-horning Amy, Rouge, her relationship with Knux, Amy’s relationship with Sonic, and Amy’s relation with Shadow and the other characters and make it feel fulfilling
@@Geekking0 Adding an extra character in a movie SPECIFICALLY about shadow's origins would screw it up. The focus is Shadow, throwing Amy in there shakes it up too much. Just wait for the next movie lol
The two actors that were the wedding scene in part 2 unfortunately made their way into the third movie WHYYY WHO IS CALLING THOSE SHOTS AND SCENES!!!!!!!!!!!!
The biggest thing I don't like about the live action movies was the decision to take Sonic from a nebulous teenager to a nebulous child. They were too scared to rely solely on older fans, so they made the movies more childish. It sucks they sacrificed more combat and cool moments for silliness, but as long as we get more, I'll deal with it.
The problem is that I saw that during the first act of the film the story progresses well, but from the second act onwards it seems like it goes fast, it goes in a hurry. There are some things that happen that aren't even explained or vaguely hinted at, but overall it's a good movie. 7 out of 10.
Shadow should been like don’t tell me you have a catchphrase then Sonic responds yea I do then shadow should’ve said his well here’s mine CHAOS CONTROL
The movie feels like a watered-down version of Sonic Adventure 2, especially when handling Shadow's sacrifice, which is very unsatisfying and not impactful. A questionable choice was made with the death of Dr. Eggman. While I'm not saying Eggman should be an ultra-serious character, they should find a balance between him being a comedy character and him being an actual threat; this undermines the character of Eggman as a villain. Additionally, Shadow's redemption arc is rushed and lacks depth. What makes SA2 work is Amy Rose's heartfelt attempts to connect with Shadow, urging him to see the good in humanity and unlock his true memories about Maria and how she wishes Shadow to save humanity and give humanity a chance. Finally, I have mixed feelings about the introduction of Metal Sonic clones; because the whole point of Metal Sonic is that he's one of a kind, and he believes he is a better version or is the real Sonic, but I'll wait and see how they will do with the next movie.
@@VibeBrush4162 there’s been a lot of people complaining that amy should have delivered the speech to shadow but in all seriousness, it’s better that the one character whose best friend is a human and has actually been living among humans for the last 2 movies, who can relate to shadow and his pain of loss, to deliver the speech that shadow needs to change his mind than rushing amy rose for an even more watered down scene
@@VibeBrush4162 also I’m pretty sure, idk if it’s SA1 or SA2 but there is a moment that shows that there are multiple versions of METAL SONIC that go all the way back from Sonic 2-CD-3&KNUCKLES-the game gear games.
@@BrooksTaevon I am not saying they should add Amy in the movie, I'm saying those types of moments of Maria telling Shadow to give humanity a chance really give Shadow a good developing redemption arc plus add more depth onto these characters.
Jim Carrey could return because Metal Sonic can shapeshift as Neo Metal Metal who I think will be the next big bad in the fourth movie. So Neo Metal could shapeshift into Eggman like in Sonic Heros to fool Sonic and his friends
I know this has nothing to do with the video, but here’s my top 5 best and worst movies of 2024 Top 5 WORST: 5. The Garfield Movie (4.3/10) 4. Despicable Me 4 (4.1/10) 3. Joker: Foule A Deux (3/10) 2. Madame Web (1.5/10) 1. Megamind 2 (-1/10) Top 5 BEST: 5. Transformers One (8.9/10) 4. Deadpool And Wolverine (9.2/10) 3. The Wild Robot (9.7/10) 2. Sonic The Hedgehog 3 (9.9/10) 1. Dune: Part Two (10/10)
A decent loose adaptation of SA2....still cringy kids humor, but decent...but some of the changes have opened a can of worms for newer entries. Making Gerald unredeemably evil is going to influence whatever adaptation of ShTH's storyline (and they WILL adapt it, mark my words) they're going to do, as the Eclipse Cannon was meant for the Black Comet. At this point, a Sonic 4 movie could either be a Heroes or an SA1 adaptation. With Heroes, they can have Neo Metal Sonic being the one controlling the Metal Sonics and possibly introduce Rouge, Omega and/or the Chaotix (I'd rather have the first two). With SA1, it means another big bombastic plot with Eggman trying to control Chaos, and the Metal Sonics just being incidental in the bigger picture, while keeping Shadow away for his own story, likely based off ShTH, even if Black Doom is going be redesigned to be less nightmare-inducing for the kiddies, ughhhh.
I wonder if the Bug Cyborgs was a really badly executed call to the original Badniks. Totally agree with the Tails and Knuckles moment. I want to know what the GUN Lady who really wanted the two key cards really wanted it for. There was clearly an alt motive they left out probably last minute.
Pretty much they only adapted small parts of SA2 and made changes to shadows origin and how maria died also Gerald robotnik is the villan of the movie which doesn't make sense since gerald robotnik is way older then eggman so he should be dead by the time the events of the film starts Also prison island is now a oil tanker like prison instead of well you an actual prison on an island you know a prison island
I'm a little confused about the "snap cube reference" critique...? Destroying a portion of the moon was always a major plot point of SA2, I think they just wanted to honour that in a different way. That plot point isn't inherent to snap cube's videos, it's literally just something that happens in SA2...
Okay let's clarify some things! Overall, I think the movie was really really good! And of course I did miss things on the first watch - big one: There IS a 2nd post-credits scene which I didn't see.

bro what thats not even the movies fault 😭
Bro I saw the movie today and there were 2 teenagers behind me talking and in the big emotional scene he just goes “Womp womp” and was randomly saying things like “Check tuesday check tuesday” or some bs like that
@@ueeee_ray not saying it was, I'll just stream or wait for home release next time. I If i'm gonna see and enjoy a movie i can't have anyone making distractions or ruining a scene where i'm supposed to feel something and connect with the characters.
I'm not the only one who likes the first movie too, right?
No I like the whole series. I like the knuckles show and the first two movies. I think they all have different charm. The sonic fanbase is pretty toxic alot of time 😅 they never agree on what's good . This was by far my favorite movie in the series :)
I like the first movie, including the whole trilogy
@@grimmick9446that's true. Unfortunately most fan bases have toxic people, and I wish they didn't.
All of your complaints and praise and you forget the fact that LIVE AND LEARN IS IN THE FINAL BATTLE!?
I thought it was perfect and had all I wanted in a Sonic movie
Shadow isn’t dead there was an after credits scene that showed he survived.
shadow survived the explosion. we know this becuase there was a second end credits scene that showed shadow puicking the things he dropped earlier back up.
11:07 but eggman knows shadow switches sides. Gerald sees shadow flying with Sonic towards him, that's why the gun robos are released and makes a big thing about it with eggman right next to him. Shadow knowing eggman is "good" is a lot flimsier, but eggman has repeatedly let it known to shadow that he doesn't want the earth destroyed, he wants to rule it, so that could be how shadow knows eggman is good now
I am still confused how they missed the opportunity to give Eggman and Gerald the mechas that they use in Sonic Adventure 2 to fight each other and instead made it some middle school level fight, I think so many of these weird moments and missed opportunities all come from the fact that this movie is a pg when the story it wanted to adapt fitted a movie with a 12 rating instead.
But still it’s just so weird because PG movies don’t have to be goofy, like Puss in Boots 2 was acclaimed and praised all round and it was a PG movie, and it was also much darker than this movie
Oh! That's an awesome idea! That would have been very cool
An easter egg in the movie is that when Tails is divising a plan you see the Sonic Mania loading screen
I’m confused if this guy actually watched the movie. “There’s no ARK, it’s all set in London”???? The first part is like HALF true because the eclipse cannon is basically like the ARK but smaller but I am surprised that ANYONE could say that it’s ALL in London, which it absolutely is not. This is such a weird video 😭
The theater I was in was filled with adults and the "zap" scene had us all laughing. It was just so silly and ridiculous and fun.
15:12 you missed the detail of shadow seeeing the commander before being put stasis.
I don’t understand what you mean at 12:37. They did include live and learn, and had city escape as a ringtone, I don’t know a song that could be more popular than those 2
Oh, man, I didn't hear the ringtone. ALSO, Sonic does the whole " What!? No in-flight food or movies? Talk about low-budget flights, I'm outta here! " line when they're getting ready to jump from the aircraft
Shadow isn’t dead. They immediately reveal that he’s alive in the second post credit scene, which I thought was actually a bad decision because it kind of kills what we thought was the consequence of this movie, should have been revealed that he’s not gone in either the next movie or the one after that
shadow being the character he is wouldnt be killed off
I agree even though I bet if they didn't show that Shadow is alive, audiences would've screamed and begged to bring shadow back.
Apparently no one bothered to stay long enough to see the after credits scene. Such a shame.
@spectorjz4447 That doesn’t mean they needed to reveal that he’s not dead literally right after his “death”. Kills the impact of his sacrifice. And in SA2 they never revealed he was alive until later games
@@1234_Flux Apparently, a lot of people didn’t. I was the only one who did at my screening. Since Sonic can teleport, it seemed a no-brainer to me that he could have gotten himself and Robotnik out of danger. I think the producers have left themselves an opening depending on whether or not Jim Carrey decides to come back. After all, he could easily have “died” in Sonic 2.
Oh come on make up you mind bro 😤
Lil bro doesn’t know what a good movie is 💀😭
Bro get over it
11:59 city escape was actually in the movie somewhere in london, it was just very hard to notice when first hearing it
I hate when people critique jokes as if they were serious.
There was no fart sound (not that I heard at least) and him getting zapped like a bug is the joke 😭 the joke is that it's anticlimactic
Why did you say there's no Ark wallnut in the sky when... there is?
Maybe Knuckles and Tails knew Eggman switched sides because they saw Gerald knock him into fucking space
6:59 yeah at that moment in the movie they did still have a couple of rings left
How is Gerald not as Jim Carrey when he is just an older version of Robotnik 😂
1:58
Not trying to be funny here but the reason its in London is because they can't really try and blow up two towers in new york..
"The moon being destroyed is a SnapCube reference" Brother what are you talking about
Oh you didn’t watch the post credits
If Sonic gets a 4th Sonic movie I feel like the main villain would be Chaos the water monster🌊also of all these video game movies a Super Smash Bros movie might be possible⭐
The villain for the next movie will be Metal Sonic. Did you even watch the movie?
Dude, Sonic 4 has been confirmed for 2027!🤩🌀🎨☄
@@TheSupaman98 Metal Sonic in that credits sequence definitely isn't "big bad" material, considering a certain someone took out a dozen of them in seconds...
@@TheSupaman98 Definitely not. Metal Sonic got whooped easily. Definitely a product of a greater evil
@TheSupaman98 Metal Sonic's too obvious why can't it be one of Sonic's underrated villains like Mephiles The Dark remember that Sonic villain💎
I kinda liked the 1000 years of death with the super sonic quil lol😂
I figured the scorpion and mantis fight was likely to reference/easter egg Scorpius (Badnik in the shape of a scorpion with Eggman's face) from Sonic Spinball and the Mantis badnik that has different iterations in Sonic games and shows. I predicted at least one fart joke when that's seen as funny from kids. This has a 2nd post-credits scene after all the credits roll revealing Shadow picking up one of his inhibitor rings (He will likely come back in the 4th film). As for Robotnik, he'll come back if Jim Carrey still needs money (He revealed coming out of retirement for the money). I loved this film and thought it was the best out of the trilogy. Although you made some valid points, I wasn't expecting perfection either but at least enjoyed how this adaptation gives us a new iteration of the Sonic universe while being faithful to the games.
Someone can find the cure to all cancers and this dude will be like: "its brilliant that cancer is solved but erm it doesnt come in different flavors so it sucks"
I can tell you with absolute confidence the 'bug fight' was just Jim Carrey doing improv on set and they CGI'd over whatever he made up. He was just dancing around (by himself mind, since he's both characters) swatting at the air and making sound effects. Since they believe Jim is their main draw they just shipped it off to the VFX team.
I loved Sonic 3 as well… But… (Minor Spoiler Warning for those who haven’t seen the movie)
The scene where Shadow knocks out Sonic in the base felt kinda… oddly edited in my opinion. I don’t know, how it cut to and from Shadow’s punch felt like it was edited for commercials/trailers and not a full movie. It felt kinda off. Maybe it’s because that clip of Shadow punching was used so much in trailers that I can’t unsee it being a trailer clip.
I love that there are literally 3 comments on this video:
1: “Erm akchually the moon cannon wasn’t a snap cube reference it was from SA2!”
2: “Erm akchually Shadow survived!”
3: “ERM AKCHUALYYYYY that wasn’t a fart noise”
Because those are legitimate criticisms of this review?
Everyone in the theater died of laughter at that scene, including me, so I see no problem
The only problem is that horrible dance scene with the robotniks
Isn't it weird how they haven't released any movies on June 23rd yet? Not only because Summer Blockbusters make a lot of money but also because that is literally Sonic's birthday and also kids don't have school.
That scene of Gerald being zapped was hilarious!
day 44 of every time dazz uploads asking him to review "meet the robinsons"
The scorpion arms thing could easily be a reference to the first boss of Sonic Spinball, which is a giant scorpion robot with Eggman's face.
Nah, shadow and Eggman arent dead. there's no way they just kill both their money makers
The actor of Jim Carrey is retiring so they killed off eggman but shadow was alive confirmed in the credits
@@cassandrapollard3175 He said that last time but still came back for Sonic 3.
@1234_Flux yeah but he wouldn't return for the 4th, that's why they made metal sonic
Robotniks knew Shadow changes his mind because they saw him going super with Sonic from the Moon
but I agree with Knuckles and Tails deus ex machina to space part
also shadow cant say chaos control and do time-space warp because he did that when he had an emerald in SA2 and they changed how those work in the movie, maybe he will say and do it in his own movie
Bro is too picky on some of of this, and he nitpicks the fart joke in the 3rd movie but doesn’t seem have much of a problem with it in the beginning of the second movie
Shadow is actually alive there was another post credit scene
Sonic is my favorite movie including Mario?😊
Yeah, they’re both great
I know they’re so good
lol my man wasn’t there in the beginning 😂
The only problems that i have with are 1.amy was the reason shadow changed to good so why isnt she here
2.why didnt maria die because of being shot that would be perfect for him realizing what maria was saying
3. It would be amazing for tom’s dad to be the man that shot maria the timeline makes sense
4.why the fart joke!!!!!
About amy being replaced, It actually works thematically to have movie sonic deliver the speech instead as he’s been through the exact same arc as shadow and can relate.
It’s great to focus solely on shadow and Sonic’s dynamic, rather than shoe-horning Amy, Rouge, her relationship with Knux, Amy’s relationship with Sonic, and Amy’s relation with Shadow and the other characters and make it feel fulfilling
@ yeah i guess but still everyone was asking about where amy was it would give them money and please the fans
It uses elements based on sonic adventure 2 it’s not suppose to be a 1:1 sonic adventure 2 adaptation
@ fair point
@@Geekking0 Adding an extra character in a movie SPECIFICALLY about shadow's origins would screw it up. The focus is Shadow, throwing Amy in there shakes it up too much. Just wait for the next movie lol
The two actors that were the wedding scene in part 2 unfortunately made their way into the third movie WHYYY WHO IS CALLING THOSE SHOTS AND SCENES!!!!!!!!!!!!
To be honest the egg vs egg fight was just a genuine question of a joke (except for auto correct joke)
They just call it “the eclipse cannon” during the movie
If you trust what Walter's said shadow knows who Walter's is because he's the one who imprison Shadow in the tank.
My main gripe is that Crush 40's lead singer was really hyping up Live and Learn and all we got were 3 miniscule snippets of the song.
I think for the next sonic movie they should just bring in THE crush 40 to make an original sonic 4 soundtrack.
I don't think you saw the second posy credit scene
Its not a snap cube refrance its a sa2 refrance and a iconic moment in the sonic series
The biggest thing I don't like about the live action movies was the decision to take Sonic from a nebulous teenager to a nebulous child. They were too scared to rely solely on older fans, so they made the movies more childish. It sucks they sacrificed more combat and cool moments for silliness, but as long as we get more, I'll deal with it.
The moon being blown up is not a snap cube reference it happened in sonic adventure. Have you even watched dark beginnings?!
The problem is that I saw that during the first act of the film the story progresses well, but from the second act onwards it seems like it goes fast, it goes in a hurry. There are some things that happen that aren't even explained or vaguely hinted at, but overall it's a good movie.
7 out of 10.
I don't know man, my read was completely different for the end.
Shadow showing up on the ship was already after the ship turned away. It is not hard to imagine what happened if u were shadow imo
Shadow should been like don’t tell me you have a catchphrase then Sonic responds yea I do then shadow should’ve said his well here’s mine CHAOS CONTROL
I would love if Jakks Pacific made a 5 inch Metal Sonic figure with the Movie 3 articulation
The movie feels like a watered-down version of Sonic Adventure 2, especially when handling Shadow's sacrifice, which is very unsatisfying and not impactful. A questionable choice was made with the death of Dr. Eggman. While I'm not saying Eggman should be an ultra-serious character, they should find a balance between him being a comedy character and him being an actual threat; this undermines the character of Eggman as a villain. Additionally, Shadow's redemption arc is rushed and lacks depth. What makes SA2 work is Amy Rose's heartfelt attempts to connect with Shadow, urging him to see the good in humanity and unlock his true memories about Maria and how she wishes Shadow to save humanity and give humanity a chance. Finally, I have mixed feelings about the introduction of Metal Sonic clones; because the whole point of Metal Sonic is that he's one of a kind, and he believes he is a better version or is the real Sonic, but I'll wait and see how they will do with the next movie.
@@VibeBrush4162 there’s been a lot of people complaining that amy should have delivered the speech to shadow but in all seriousness, it’s better that the one character whose best friend is a human and has actually been living among humans for the last 2 movies, who can relate to shadow and his pain of loss, to deliver the speech that shadow needs to change his mind than rushing amy rose for an even more watered down scene
@@VibeBrush4162 also I’m pretty sure, idk if it’s SA1 or SA2 but there is a moment that shows that there are multiple versions of METAL SONIC that go all the way back from Sonic 2-CD-3&KNUCKLES-the game gear games.
@@BrooksTaevon I am not saying they should add Amy in the movie, I'm saying those types of moments of Maria telling Shadow to give humanity a chance really give Shadow a good developing redemption arc plus add more depth onto these characters.
@@BrooksTaevon That's correct, but these are multiple versions of Robot Sonic, and these have no relation to Metal Sonic.
Just remember paramount will never let shadow be full edgy if he gets a movie
Cuz that was never his character. Just partial flanderization from his 2005 game that's been blown out of proportion with out of context clips.
Live and learn was there
Jim Carrey could return because Metal Sonic can shapeshift as Neo Metal Metal who I think will be the next big bad in the fourth movie. So Neo Metal could shapeshift into Eggman like in Sonic Heros to fool Sonic and his friends
The problem is that it ends
I know this has nothing to do with the video, but here’s my top 5 best and worst movies of 2024

I’m a ten year old and oh my god I agree that the knuckles show was a$$ 30 minutes for one episode that was trash
It’s your bed time little one
@@locopollo2042 lol
Shadow is alive. There was a mid credit and post credit scene. You silly billy.
shadow isnt dead the laser to the moon isnt a snapcube refrence
The problem is shadow not dual wielding AK-47.
A decent loose adaptation of SA2....still cringy kids humor, but decent...but some of the changes have opened a can of worms for newer entries. Making Gerald unredeemably evil is going to influence whatever adaptation of ShTH's storyline (and they WILL adapt it, mark my words) they're going to do, as the Eclipse Cannon was meant for the Black Comet.
At this point, a Sonic 4 movie could either be a Heroes or an SA1 adaptation. With Heroes, they can have Neo Metal Sonic being the one controlling the Metal Sonics and possibly introduce Rouge, Omega and/or the Chaotix (I'd rather have the first two). With SA1, it means another big bombastic plot with Eggman trying to control Chaos, and the Metal Sonics just being incidental in the bigger picture, while keeping Shadow away for his own story, likely based off ShTH, even if Black Doom is going be redesigned to be less nightmare-inducing for the kiddies, ughhhh.
Shadow ain't dead
I wonder if the Bug Cyborgs was a really badly executed call to the original Badniks.
Totally agree with the Tails and Knuckles moment.
I want to know what the GUN Lady who really wanted the two key cards really wanted it for. There was clearly an alt motive they left out probably last minute.
This movie ngl was my favorite movie of the year, even the liberties it took were interesting:]
I like how a big part of the movie happened where I live.
You didn't see the second post credit scene (let's just say it goes back on something you thought happened)
Pretty much they only adapted small parts of SA2 and made changes to shadows origin and how maria died also Gerald robotnik is the villan of the movie which doesn't make sense since gerald robotnik is way older then eggman so he should be dead by the time the events of the film starts
Also prison island is now a oil tanker like prison instead of well you an actual prison on an island you know a prison island
I'm reading these comments and there was a SECOND post credits scene?! Damn!
Stick around next time!!!
I'm a little confused about the "snap cube reference" critique...? Destroying a portion of the moon was always a major plot point of SA2, I think they just wanted to honour that in a different way. That plot point isn't inherent to snap cube's videos, it's literally just something that happens in SA2...
He clearly did not do research
Hell I’m even questioning if he even played SA2?
Buddy it happens in the game and it’s not just a snap cube reference
