I think the reason why Jim Carrey was chosen for the role of Doctor Robotnik was because his daughter said that he would make a great Sonic villain due to him trying to play Sonic games only to not be very good at them which gave him the inspiration for such a role to begin with.

While you don't have to listen to everything people say it's important to be willing to listen and see what they have to say otherwise you can miss something important. while not quite the same as here the guy who makes dilber once just made a cat show up for a few jokes about cats and keyboards and he got hundreds of emails from people saying they love and want more catbert. the thing was he hadn't named the character or meant for him to be a character, but decided if hundreds of your fans give your character the same name at the same time it's probably a good idea to keep the character.

Right when the redesign came out, one of the former CGI animators said that Paramount pushed for the realistic Sonic, knowing fans wouldn't like it, but figured the public audiences wouldn't care, comparing it to TMNT live action movie in 2014, the original vision and concept art for the movie shows that the director and teams vision was a traditional Sonic. The artist even quoted a tweet with the trailer of the redesign saying "yeah, pretty much what we wanted to do in the first place"

@tcrpgfan
@tcrpgfan 2 года назад
As I always say, that was Paramount's biggist misstep regarding the movie since the Sonic franchise hits tens of millions of people right in the most important spot a movie like Sonic would need to draw from, nostalgic childhood memories. More importantly, Paramount forgot that Sonic's popularity was so large at one point that he was competing with Mario for awhile and was popular enough to the point where the genesis games are considered treasured childhood memories for many a person who grew up in the 80s and 90s, so even people who grew up with the Sonic games from that era who are casual fans would take one look at the redesign and say 'Not. My. Sonic.' And those are just casual fans. The hardcore Sonic fans would have said easily the worst thing (and redesign, depending on how you feel about the continuity) since Sonic Boom.

Movie execs baffle me. If public audiences wouldn't care, why wouldn't you just go with the design people already like??? Like, there's no way that people who weren't complete and utter weirdos were going to be impressed by the design for its "realism" or find any appeal in them making a blue, bipedal hedgehog look more like a mutant ape. I think whoever made that call should be studied by scientists.

@@goojo173 True. And weirdly enough, they originally planned to have lizards tribe before Echidna tribe to search for Sonic's powers. That's very, very early development though, since the farthest that got into it was just artworks, no process of animating lizard tribe. Good thing they end up choosing Echidna tribe since it's more faithful to the Sonic games lore and forshadows Knuckles in the sequel. And it's also a good thing they redesign Sonic and Echidna tribe as well.

I think the moral of this story is, if you take risks & don’t get defensive when dealing with criticism, the results could lead to something great. Paramount & Jeff Fowler could’ve handled Sonic’s design the same way the Ghostbusters reboot & Netflix’s Cowboy Bebop handled their criticism by saying something like “everyone who’s upset are pathetic neckbeards & man-children who need to grow up,” causing the movie to turn into an overblown culture war. But instead, they took the response seriously and tried to be respectful to the fans and the source, leading it to be the start of Sonic’a renaissance

Hopefully whoever mandated that first design was fired because in hindsight it could've wrecked Paramount so bad.

I remember my reaction towards the Blue Blur's first trailer. I believe I was either in my final year of Middle School or my Freshman Year of High School. The trailer had dropped sometime in the morning, around 8, maybe 9:00. I saw the thumbnail, thought it had to be clickbait or a prank, but no. It was official. Curious, I saw the trailer and it instantly colonized my brain. That day I was replaying it, I sent it to my parents, showed it to anyone who would put up with my newly developed hyperfixation. I didn't care if Sonic looked like something from under your bed or hidden deep within your closet, I just saw the end where it reveals the release date, glitches a bit, then the glitching escalates to reveal Jim Carrey wearing a game accurate Dr. Robotnik/Eggman costume, beautiful mustache and all. That was when I knew that this movie was gonna be GOOOOOD. Fast forward to 2021-ish. One day I was minding my business, working on schoolwork during a free period while looking at RU-vid and stuff when I get a notification from Twitter that Idris Elba posted two words and a Sonic 2 poster: "Knock Knock". It took me 5 seconds to drink in the whiplash, and about 10 minutes of me squealing like a little girl for me to tell EVERYONE I KNOW about this.

Hollywood is constantly giving us things we didn't exactly ask for, just showing us trailers and acting like we'll just accept anything in a movie because we 'don't understand how they're made'. But we do know how movies are made, and we know what we want. This was the first sign of the audience actually having a voice in the producer's room and I hope it continues so the industry doesn't waste money on movies we won't watch.

So you saw the sequel? I didn't care much for the first one as I thought that basically "nothing happened" in it, but the second one was soooo so so much better! Also, "the audience having a voice in the producer's room"... that's a good one.

THIS is what happens when you actually listen to and cater to fans. Sonic not only is gonna' get an entire cinematic universe thanks to the re-design, but on top of that the success of the Sonic movie got SEGA to finally get their heads out of their asses and take Sonic seriously again. It's like Paramount literally breathed new life into sonic. And how did they do that? By ACTUALLY catering to what fans wanted, they wanted to see sonic, and they actually GOT sonic. It's truly an awe-inspiring thing to see a franchise fall so low, only to climb and rise back to the absolute top of the mountain with it's glimmering sword held high to the heavens. I can't wait to see this movie on Saturday. I haven't been this genuinely excited for a movie in years.

The director's swift response to it was absolutely the right move, here. However, it was, itself, a bold and brave risk that could have just as easily backfired. There will *always* be criticism, and there will be those who, feeling they can make things happen if they're loud and in-your-face enough, will step up their criticism in the future to try to force this kind of response to anything they dislike. I like to think that the reason the director made this unusual but ultimately heroically correct choice was because he did a very careful study of the criticism, looked at it as objectively as he could, and also looked around for counterpoints. It's clear, from how the final design came out, that he had his team and probably was himself looking at specific criticisms, because the final design was much closer to the iconic look. I can't help but think there might've been some internal disagreement over the design even before it was released and panned; if internal criticisms were suddenly validated by unrelated fan criticism, that might explain it. But even that's something that usually would have to be ignored lest you allow internal disputes to leak into the broader world as people try to use public pressure to get their way. So I totally get why this is usually never going to happen. It's fascinating that it happened here _and_ it was, in fact, the right choice.
@Zeknif1

I recall shortly after the release of the redesign trailer that one of the members of the graphical design team said that the redesign had been closer to what they, the design team had wanted to do in the first place but had to shelve due to pressure from higher up. This statement coming out after Jim Carrey had criticized the decision on a redesign on the belief that fan criticism was stifling the artists. After the design team member’s comment came out revealing that the execs were the ones that had forced the artists to make the original design, Jim Carrey went largely quiet until the immense success on release and he began openly praising the redesign and the execs listening to the fans.

I also hated how tails was nerfed to a helpless sidekick as well, Tails is scary yes but he isn't a coward. He can fight when he knows he needs to, and shouldn't need sonic 24/7.

And I can assure that, having seen the movie (without giving you any spoilers, PS, its worth it A LOT and I LOVED IT 😍) both characters DO get the respect and love they deserve. In the movie they had their flaws, but they had it for a reason of its development, and I can tell you that it is a joy seeing them together next to Sonic. Totally recommended 👌🏻

I had always been more partial to Mario and Pokémon titles but after I saw the second Sonic I grabbed my switch and downloaded Sonic 2. I had heard great things about it and that it had quite the reputation and let me say, Sega nailed this one and now I know why there’s a huge following for older Sonic games

I remember 3 years ago seeing the design I though that, that was it this is their final moment and the sonic franchise is over, but to my surprise they actually listened to the fans and put effort to redesign it it’s rare to see this happen since most big companies don’t listen and just move on but seeing this happen with a new sonic movie released it’s just amazing to me

Ill never forget after the reception of that first trailer, people were feeling sorry for Jim Carrey. They said he had to carry the movie on his shoulders, and were making memes about his back going out. Im sure he wouldve still been the same as the animated actor he is, but that design wouldve been such a massive eyesore. Im so glad both the director and the studio redid the design. Now the correct portrayal of Sonic's appearance helped elevate just how great of a performance Jim Carrey's did as Dr Robotnik/Eggman.

Just finished Sonic 2 in theaters and I have to say, as a sonic fan, it was incredible. I love how when they introduced Tails and Knuckles, it wasn't super over the top with the shock factor of "OMG THIS CHARACTER IS IN THE MOVIE!" and that was it (if you get what I mean). The characters were phenomenal and I am so happy that Knuckles and Tails were just like how they are in the games personality and power wise. And (SPOILERS AHEAD) Super Sonic was INCREDIBLE. When Sonic became Super Sonic in the movie, I thought he was going to be super humorous and childish as he fought Robotnik but I'm REALLY happy that they made him more serious and badass with his representation. I was freaking out the entire time he was on screen and I loved every second of it. And the end credit scene with Shadow was so unexpected to me (I didn't know they were making a third one I thought this was gonna be the last one) and I am SO hyped for the next movie. The SMEU is gonna be great and I am so excited to see what more they do with it, because this is definitely one of my new favorite movie trilogies.

Another bit of trivia, apparently the original trailer featured several designs of sonic, since they haven’t quite finalised the design yet. Also, while the story boards were likely used with the original designs in mind, the only bits of finalised footage for the original sonic designs where the trailer itself and the baseball sequence, so unfortunately there is no “man-hog“ cut for the whole film.

Actually, your point on why they did the design is pretty spot-on, but where you know they fucked up is they assumed nobody would give a fuck about the changes, completely ignoring that there are people who have been fans of sonic since the early days who now _have kids_ and just how significant of an icon he is to video games. The ONLY video game characters that are considered even more iconic than Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Eggman are Mario and his cast of characters. THAT'S HOW BAD PARAMOUNT FUCKED UP! Also, having seen the second one recently. Sonic 2 is the better movie. The best way I can describe it is that Sonic 1 is a movie starring Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic 2 is a Sonic the Hedgehog movie.

@Fractorification

Excellent video! One important thing you forgot to mention was that, the design from the original first poster isn't exactly the same one from the first trailer. There was an interview with the Russian voice actor of Sonic where he mentioned that when the first poster dropped, Paramount was worried from the reactions and made some"tweaks". So, he might've ended looking worse than what we originally saw. That first poster had a strange green irirs bulging out of his skull with beefier legs that we got a better look on that other Golden Gate bridge poster. So, even back then he was being changed.
