Sonic the hedgehog 2006 game on xbox was my favorite sonic game. As far as the whole franchise i would say shadow the hedgehog game that came out on ps2 i wish they would make another sonic and shadow story mode game instead of sonic go kart all the time.
The director actually said that slow motion scene in the bar was really inspired by Over the Hedge, where Hammy drinks caffeine and everything freezes lol
My 81 year old grandma and I used to play Sonic all the time back in the day. Sonic, Mario, & Bandicoot was her jams and she still plays them for fun and to help with her coordination. This is one of her all time favorite movies, having watched it countless times. I love it too and Jim Carrey's performance in this movie is one of my favorites by him. We can't wait for the sequel to come out it should be pretty good from what we seen in the trailer.
This movie was way better than it had any right to be. I went in expecting to hate-watch it, and by the 20 minute mark, I was laughing and having a good time. Looking forward to the sequel.
I'm a Proud owner of the original 2nd Sonic the Hedgehog on my rusty, trusty Sega Genesis that has been in my family since 1993! Sonic still races the hills at my home and even managed to survive a real-life water level by being in a 3-inch deep flooding that happened! The entire console and cartridge were both underwater for a significant period of time and yet after 2 months of drying off, it's back to Emerald Hills I go with Sonic and Tails gathering rings and fighting Robotnik as if nothing happened! To this day, I have never beat the game... I'm too slow for it! LOL! I'll get there someday though. I loved Jim Carrey's and Ben Schwartz' performances! They were fitting roles!
Remember the Trailer? 😅 This movie is so much more awesome. And I'm glad, they took their time to re-do the cg for Sonic. Although at the same time kind of angry that they had to close down that studio afterwards. Hope those artists all found new, better jobs. They definitely deserve a raise for their work here....
Its crazy that during the bar fight scene, Sonic appeared to go his usual speed while dancing with the sparklers on the one guy, as well as with the guy wrapped up in toilet paper. But I just realized that he was going at that speed while already going so fast that time stopped. That's insane
I loved this opening! Very rarely do sponsor-sketchs make me laugh & invested. And yes, Jim Carrey is a legend, & I'd like to request "I Love You Philip Morris" (2010) with him, Ewen McGregor & Leslie Mann.
I freaking love this Movie,I watch it before the Covid Disaster and it's by far the best Video Game Movie I've ever seen in my Life,I Hope and Pray that the Sequel is great.
Oh hell yeah bro! I'm am stoked.for this reaction. I love this movie. Literally just clicked in on the video so I'm gonna sit back and enjoy. Thanks for the video man
I honestly never realized till this video but the quicksilver scene has become the new bullet time for this generation as far as imitated influence goes.
Funnily enough, the human couple in Sonic are called Wachowski, which is the name of the creators of The Matrix. They also made the Speed Racer film in which they utilised bullet time to even greater effect.
Sonic Adventure DX. It has Great levels, decent story Insane replay and variety value. Not to mention the best side mechanic in a sonic game the Chao garden.
My first Sonic game was Heroes on the PS2. It was the first game I ever bought with my own money and I loved the cast of characters you got to play as. God only knows if this movie franchise reaches that point.
Sonic was probably the first video game I played as a kid and I was immediately hooked. Seeing the very first trailer I was like HELLL NAW lol as everyone else was I'm sure, but the finished product.......no question easily my favorite video game movie.
Land line telephone services use a different system than the power company so they usually work during outages (as long as the phone lines are still up). In fact, phone companies collect fees for the FCC to pay for disconnected and cancelled accounts to retain service so tenants can still call 911 if they need to as long as there's still a jack connected.
19:07 - The 'pushing people off of buildings' line could possibly be foreshadowing something in a later movie, depending on what direction Jeff Fowler takes these in.
Kind of makes you wonder how much other stuff Robotnik foreshadowed for later movies. I know Jim Carrey's probably going to trtire, but that doesn't mean he didn't already foreshadow other stuff.
3:17 - Well, before this movie came out, nobody else had ever seen her before either. They invented her for the movies to give Sonic a backstory, which in the games he sorely lacks.
So glad you’re checking this movie out! Can’t wait for the sequel! Also, my favorite Sonic game is Sonic Adventure 2 and my least favorite is Sonic Forces
Growing up I got to play sonic adventures on the Dreamcast and fell in love with a character then and still love the character sonic song sonic adventures will be my very first game and my least favorite would be Sonic boom rise of lyric.
Great reaction Mello! This film was the last movie that I saw in the theater before the "you know what". Jim Carrey made this movie good. And as a kid, I liked the 1st and 2nd Sonic The Hedgehog video games on Sega Genesis. Nice childhood memories.
My favorite Sonic games are Sonic 2 (Original for Sega Genesis) and Sonic Mania. I like that they name the town Green Hills like the first stage in the game. I enjoyed the reaction. Thanks.
My favorite sonic game is sonic 3. I remember one year for my birthday my mom bought me a new sega & sonic 3. When I got older I learned that combining it with sonic & knuckles makes what was supposed to be the full sonic 3 game. So, "sonic 3 & knuckles" is definitely my favorite game 🤘
20:39 - Part of the reason these movies are so good is because Jeff Fowler, the director, is someone who personally worked on some of the Sonic games, and is a huge fan of the franchise. So yeah, get the right person and you'll get something good.
It's definitely up there for contender for best movie based on a video game. I think Mortal Kombat is still number one for me. Not the new one but the old one from the 90's.
18:08 hype-st shot in the movie for me I saw this movie the day before the pandemic lockdown and I was the only one in the theater. So yeah, no one could hear me groan at the cringy parts, or get emotional during the wholesome moments
My all time favorite sonic game has to go to Sonic Heroes, it’s an amazing game that always reminds me of the summer Saturday mornings when I used to get up and play that and watch the cartoon block on Nickelodeon…. Good times
I've been watching your videos for a good long while now, and been loving it. So I'm gonna make my first recommendation. To keep on the theme of good video game movies I'm gonna say Silent Hill. Really great atmosphere, monster design, and music!
A friend of mine who is working on Sonic 2 says the film is building up to a trilogy with Super Sonic in the third movie facing off against Metal Sonic
My only game was Sonic Adventure DX (I still have CD) and back in my school days I played a lot and managed to end all character's stories except for the last Sonic's battle. It was crazy hard. And about the movie, I was prepared for a disappointment, like it was with Pokemon: detective Pikachu but surprisingly that was good!
Was a Sonic fan in my tweens, and this was the game that made me a gamer. Played the original STH on Genesis, but my favorite Sonic game of the era was SONIC CD. The first game to introduce Amy, but what really made me call it my favorite was the time travel mechanic... yes that is right... TIME TRAVEL.
Hey Mello, in case you didn't catch it, the "mushroom world" was a bit of an Easter egg. Back in the day, Sega and Nintendo had a big rivalry with Sonic and Mario. So the mushroom world is a reference to Mario haha.
@9:15 Though it is merely an hypothesis. That nightmare one was never the original design. They needed a bit more attention, get some eye balls, make the news, and it was a hush hush secret amongst like the 5-10 people to make it work. Actually quite brilliant when you think about it. Put something SO bad up people look at it, act like it's a big deal, 'delay' the movie to fix it, while knowing it was a troll all along. Like I said, theory.
Even though the new current design of Sonic in the movie was better, the film company was in a way "Cyber bullied" by fan editors to use the current Sonic design instead of the "human teeth" version of sonic.
To this day, I refuse to watch the original trailer. Funny story, that design was Paramount's call because they thought it would generate enough buzz on the internet to turn a profit and get publicity. They knew it would get negative press, but they didn't know it was going to be as bad as it was, and that's why they changed their time and ordered the almost finished film to be completely reanimated.
I was wondering about that because they said it took them six months to redo the movie in the current character design. That seems like a short amount of time...
back in the day the power would go out but the phone lines wouldnt go down so if you had a corded phone that didint need to be plugged in it still worked
Because of quarantine it was, literally, the best movie I saw in theaters that year. Can't believe my local theater reopened. Gonna watch the sequel in the same theater this spring.
Jim carry was born to play this role, like high Jack man was born to be wolverine, and sonic love this kid(in the film he’s a kid I’d say preteen? Don’t now how it works for his particular species.
I love that the Sonic The Hedgehog film was Jim Carrey's comeback. He is and always will be my favorite comedian and actor even though sometimes he can be a jerk. I kinda relate to him though. I’ll admit I kinda am a jerk sometimes but it happened because of how the world is. A big hell hole.
As I Looking Forward To The Sequel This movie Got Me Back To Sonic My First Sonic Game Was Sonic Unleashed I played That Game When I Was 3 Or 4 Years Old & They Add The Great Wall Of China Reference Which Was My Favourite Gives Nostalgia
I've Only Ever Played One Sonic Game And That Was "Sonic Heroes" For The PS2. My Mom Got It For Me For Christmas When I Was A Kid.
Sonic the hedgehog 2006 game on xbox was my favorite sonic game. As far as the whole franchise i would say shadow the hedgehog game that came out on ps2 i wish they would make another sonic and shadow story mode game instead of sonic go kart all the time.
And that sonic is God tier. Thats my fav too
Not sure how far you made it with each team, but Metal Sonic is the true final boss. My personal favorite is Sonic Adventure 2: Battle
One of my favorite Sonic games was sonic adventures on the dreamcast
That's the worst version of that game btw.
The director actually said that slow motion scene in the bar was really inspired by Over the Hedge, where Hammy drinks caffeine and everything freezes lol
That scene also inspired X-men and their speed scenes
I love that movie so much... It's part of my childhood...
Hammy: "Hey look everyone look! I found my nuts!" *Runs into camera*
(🤣🤣🤣)
The way this man went from Euphoria to Sonic The Hedgehog is a move I fully respect and admire
Euphoria is too heavy for me lol

It could have been great if Sonic was killed off
@@azazello1784 no
@@azazello1784 bruh
Thankfully they changed their original idea of how Sonic’s eyes were supposed to look 😳
Nah, Sonic got the respect he needed. Honestly I knew it would be really good coming into it.
*Skillsharia made me laugh so much* Mell back at it with the great promos!
Also agree I didn't expect this to be so good!
I don't think anyone expected this to be good lmao
You can see why Jim Carrey wanted to return for the sequel...and he very rarely agrees to do sequel movies
You can definitely tell he was having a lot of fun with this one.

Omg yes I remember that.

At his top speed he's faster than the speed of light.
@@richardfitzwell4618 He's pretty much as fast as The Flash. And that's not an exaggeration. He just typically needs an assist to get to those speeds.
As someone who has not really played the games or watched the shows, aside from clips of the Sonic Boom show, I can safely say I enjoyed this movie.
I loved this opening! Very rarely do sponsor-sketchs make me laugh & invested. And yes, Jim Carrey is a legend, & I'd like to request "I Love You Philip Morris" (2010) with him, Ewen McGregor & Leslie Mann.

A landline with a cord phone works during power outages 😉
Used to play Sonic 2 and 3 as a kid on Sega

Funnily enough, the human couple in Sonic are called Wachowski, which is the name of the creators of The Matrix. They also made the Speed Racer film in which they utilised bullet time to even greater effect.
I was introduced to Sonic by the Dreamcast game Sonic Adventures. Still play it from time from time from my Xbox.
I think over the hedge was actually the first film to do the high speed character scene with Hammy
Sonic Adventure DX. It has Great levels, decent story Insane replay and variety value. Not to mention the best side mechanic in a sonic game the Chao garden.
My first Sonic game was Heroes on the PS2. It was the first game I ever bought with my own money and I loved the cast of characters you got to play as. God only knows if this movie franchise reaches that point.
Sonic 2 on the sega genesis is my favorite
My favorite Sonic is definitely the Sonic 3 catridge inserted into the Sonic and Knuckles cartridge.
Sonic was probably the first video game I played as a kid and I was immediately hooked. Seeing the very first trailer I was like HELLL NAW lol as everyone else was I'm sure, but the finished product.......no question easily my favorite video game movie.
I can't wait to see the sequel next month.

19:07 - The 'pushing people off of buildings' line could possibly be foreshadowing something in a later movie, depending on what direction Jeff Fowler takes these in.
4:22 Most of that stuff is stuff he found that people didn’t want or were throwing out. He doesn’t steal new things, just collects unwanted stuff.
Getting ready for Sonic 2 I see.
Dude your thumbnails are SO FIREEEEEE
You know how Robotnik was walking like a robot at the end?
Well, believe it or not, that was foreshadowing the death egg robot.
Kind of makes you wonder how much other stuff Robotnik foreshadowed for later movies. I know Jim Carrey's probably going to trtire, but that doesn't mean he didn't already foreshadow other stuff.
15:19 he doesn’t run up the wall because he doesn’t want to leave earth yet, he is trying to delay so he can stay longer
To answer sonics age. Based of his canon age of 15 he must've been five when the longclsw thing happened since the movie takes place a decade later
3:17 - Well, before this movie came out, nobody else had ever seen her before either. They invented her for the movies to give Sonic a backstory, which in the games he sorely lacks.
So glad you’re checking this movie out! Can’t wait for the sequel! Also, my favorite Sonic game is Sonic Adventure 2 and my least favorite is Sonic Forces
Least fav is sonic 06
SA2 is so good
@@skld-xm yeah it is
When you mentioned about getting the shoes from Robotnik, that is how he got them in the UK comics before Robotnik went evil.
Mell: “Who hasn’t been to Olive Garden?”
Me: 😑
Rewatching this now, I just realized that Sonic being a Keanu Reeves fan and Shadow is played by him is such an Easter egg
as someone who worked in government, that $50 olive garden card is pretty generous for them - I'd of expected $20
Donut Lord is also famous for playing Cyclops in the X-Men Movie.
I don't know if anyone else said it but landlines still work when the power is out. Now I'm curious to know your age LOL
"what top 5 sonic games you smokin on"
"HEROES, HEROES, HEROES, HEROES, HEROES!"

Detective Pikachu = best recent video game movie
Love me some Skillshare
Can't wait for my man Knuckles!
Also, Sonic 2 OG!

I love watching comedies here 🥰😳

My favorite Sonic games are Sonic 2 (Original for Sega Genesis) and Sonic Mania. I like that they name the town Green Hills like the first stage in the game. I enjoyed the reaction. Thanks.
'Over the Hedge' Did the slowmotion Quick Silver scene first. You gotta watch it. :)
My favorite sonic game is sonic 3. I remember one year for my birthday my mom bought me a new sega & sonic 3. When I got older I learned that combining it with sonic & knuckles makes what was supposed to be the full sonic 3 game. So, "sonic 3 & knuckles" is definitely my favorite game 🤘

This was the last movie I saw before the lockdown which is crazy that 2020 was two years ago and it doesn’t feel like it.
10:56 Director Jeff Fowler said that Sonic's age is 13-14.
In the movie. When sonic has more emotions like sad or angry or happy. He'll gain more power
Speaking of video game movies, as a kid, I wanted to see a GTA San Andreas movie and an official Left 4 Dead movie
If you‘re gonna react to the sequel, you gotta wear a fancy Robotnik mustache! 👀✨
My all time favorite sonic game has to go to Sonic Heroes, it’s an amazing game that always reminds me of the summer Saturday mornings when I used to get up and play that and watch the cartoon block on Nickelodeon…. Good times

Happy belated 2nd Anniversary "SONIC THE HEDGEHOG MOVIE" (Valentine's Day, 2020)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yup and was the last movie to squeak by before all the theaters shutdown due to the rona.
My only game was Sonic Adventure DX (I still have CD) and back in my school days I played a lot and managed to end all character's stories except for the last Sonic's battle. It was crazy hard.
And about the movie, I was prepared for a disappointment, like it was with Pokemon: detective Pikachu but surprisingly that was good!
15:59 This is the pose he takes in the game when you've been idle too long. Complete with the tapping toes.

There was also a level called Mushroom Hill Zone in Sonic & Knuckles on the Genesis.
Ill always remember Sonic underground where he had a brother and sister and hed use his instruments for weapons
Once again, amazing advertising.

I mean it's plausable. They were only changing one aspect of the movie. If they were doing a total retake then there'd be no way.
That is literally an assumption.
back in the day the power would go out but the phone lines wouldnt go down so if you had a corded phone that didint need to be plugged in it still worked
That is my favourite movie in 2020!!!
Because of quarantine it was, literally, the best movie I saw in theaters that year. Can't believe my local theater reopened. Gonna watch the sequel in the same theater this spring.
Enjoyed the movie, just wish they had included the various music scores from the games, like the iconic one whenever you fight Robotnik.
They might put them in the sequel since this film did so well.
I enjoyed this movie...use to play It on SAGA... Ooo the gd old days lol...awaiting part 2
The 2nd one is definitely theater worthy. I actually wanna see it again.
Jim carry was born to play this role, like high Jack man was born to be wolverine, and sonic love this kid(in the film he’s a kid I’d say preteen? Don’t now how it works for his particular species.
Normally I hate skits for ads but that was funny.
I know I’m late, but I saw Sonic 2 last Saturday and I loved it and that’s how you do a franchise. Btw, my favorite Sonic game is Sonic Unleashed.
Sonic Allstars racers was surprisingly really fun if you want something that ain’t a classic
Such a fun movie!
The creatures at beginning are species which knuckles come from
Ok. So....the Quicksilver thing...Smallville walked that so they could run.
15:01 His shoes don’t make him faster it’s all in his DNA so he was born with it

Funny enough the tribe that you said look like Knuckles, are an Echidna tribe
