This is how you play to Knuckles’ ignorance towards modern conventions without just making him the dope of the group. He’s not dumb, he’s just not as socially or technologically inclined as others.
@@skellington8090 True, true. I still don't know why they made him a brown cat, though, considering they kept the lyric of "Macavity's a *ginger* cat" in his song.

The fact that he’s voiced by Idris Elba is really epic. He just made the character so likable. I really love what they did with knuckles in this movie. Let’s just hope he stays in the third movie. It be a very interesting dynamic between him and shadow. These movies are fun. 💙💛🧡❤️

My favorite thing about Movie Knuckles is that he has a smooth voice, stands for the ways of the Echidna, and could destroy a truck with just his fist, then out of all things his favorite food is grapes.
Movie Knuckles is more of modern portrayal of Knuckles in the early games. Grapes were also his favorite food in the games it just wasn’t explicitly mentioned as much
Ben Schwartz, Coleen O’Shaugnesssy and Idris Elba could not have been better cast. I cannot wait until they cast Shadow. Whoever it is, am sure they will nail it too.

I seriously can’t wait for the knuckles show although I’m not sure why they decided to have him sorter with wade but knuckles is definitely gonna have us fall in love with the show and who knows maybe wade will evolve

Knuckles is only funny because his voice actor is taking it seriously, rather than trying to be funny.
as well as the way he speaks
that's his personality
Because he was directed to give that performance. The reason this knuckles is funny is because he as a stoic and completely seriously written and performed character clashes with the vibrant and colorful characters who exist in a zanier reality.
