Sonic the Hedgehog Cinematic Universe Thread (& Knuckles)

I can't say I disagree with those saying they should leave it at a trilogy. SA2 is a super climactic story, so a good place to leave it off. Nice and clean.

I feel like that's not gonna happen, though. LOL

Let me put my wild guess in so I'm a genius if I get it right: Movie 3 is gonna end with Silver seeing the world broken apart with purple Dark Gaia energy everywhere and he's going to be seeing visions of the Warehog destroying the planet.

That's right. Movie 4 is 06 + Unleashed. The Flames of Disaster is replaced with Dark Gaia and there's no Soleanna or Elise, Sonic is racing around the world turning into a warewolf, and Silver is chasing him trying to save the future. Professor Pickle is there, too. Chip is a "maybe".

 

A Sonic Frontiers-inspired movie actually would go fucking hard if done right.

 

How long until we get the Chaotix spinoff?

Just reminded myself of a piece of fanart of a movie-ified Chaotix with Brenda from Sonic Unleashed, but I can't for the life of me remember who drew it

 

I can't wait to have this dialogue in the movie, guys.

 

WTFF did I just see and...hear...? XD

 

Are you talking about this?


This was made by a guy named JoeAdok. I think his art is neat.

 

Yup

 

I really hope they end this film series with this one but I have a feeling that as long as they make money, they'll keep cranking them out regardless of quality.

They'll probably split the fourth film into two parts. Sonic 4 Episode I will release in 2025, Episode II will release in 2026 with a tease for a potential episode III. Then they'll forget about the series altogether and reboot it with the fully animated film that people wanted all along.

 

What exactly is the metric for cultural relevance of a Sonic game? I'm not about to ask for a Sonic 06 storyline (...though given the movies' real-human-world setting, it would weirdly fit), but surely there's material of note between Heroes and Frontiers, of all things. Maybe Blaze (what's one more dimension in that multiverse?) or a Phantom Ruby appearance (that's a twofer, Mania and Forces fans), I dunno. But do people who don't follow this series even know who Sage is yet? I genuinely have no idea.

 

My prediction: this will conclude the current series and they'll reboot or do a standalone sequel that doesn't rely on you knowing about previous movies a few years later. Some actors may return.

 

I think it would be wise for this to be the last movie if Jim Carrey is returning, since he supposedly is retiring. But I haven't seen any indication one way or the other yet. If he isn't coming back for Sonic 3 then they would already be doing it without him and might as well carry (ha) on with as many as they want to do.

 

I want every game and character adapted into this live action universe...I’ll settle for the most relevant ones *cough-and SatAm-cough* just keep them going.

I really hope Jim Carrey returns though.

 

They're going to split this movie into two parts and tease a Jim Carry return at the end for part two.

 

If a 4th movie was planned "from start" than I can respect that. But after that, I hope we'll start having animated movies by Marza.

 

Just like Fast & Furious 10

 

Jim Carrey announced he was retiring after Movie 2, but we haven't heard anything from anyone involved in Movie 3 saying that he will or won't be in the film, correct?

Like, if they're going to start shooting with actors soon, they have to know if Jim Carrey is in or out. Not sure why they'd keep it a secret if he was involved. This isn't a Spider-Man: No Way Home kinda situation.

Luckily, from a narrative standpoint, Shadow can fill the villain role on his own, probably with some help from Agent Stone, but it will be weird having a Sonic movie without Robotnik.

 

I need to know what the knuckles tv show is before I say whether I want another live action movie. If the Knuckles show is an adaption of SA1 involving chaos then I’m good with Sonic 3 being the end. If not, I’d LOVE a live action SA1 adaption with live action filming at the locations the SA1 team visited and based SA1 off of.

 

To be honest, I bet 3 will have Super Sonic and Super Shadow fighting Perfect Chaos just to merge the stories, especially to avoid the whole child death part of Shadow's ingame story. Also, Perfect Chaos is just more iconic than the Biolizard.

Either Robotnik or Stone find Shadow, use him for their own purposes, and accidentally release Perfect Chaos, all the while Shadow questions his allegiance.

 

We need the Knuckles series to warm up the audience for more Sonic characters (Amy, Rouge, Big).

I mean it.

 

I think there's a chance they'll use Chaos as a replacement for the Biolizard... but I'll be quite disappointed if they fully ditch Maria's back story. It's so ridiculously edgy, and that's what makes it so fun.
