Looks like an animorph who got stuck halfway

Are they not self-aware? Does no one pulling the strings realize how bad this looks?

This is going to be the Masters of the Universe / Super Mario Bros film of the 2010s isn’t it

Yes hello I'd like to return the madman's knowledge I picked up earlier. I've decided that seeing eldritch horrors everywhere just isn't for me. Hello? ...Hello?

Why does every Hollywood adaption of a cartoon have to make the characters so freakishly realistic? Seriously, was the official designs not good enough, you have to make them uglier for no reason? I'm not a huge fan of Detective Pikachu's designs, but they at least look faithful to the official art of the games. I would've been interested in this movie if it was just the official Sonic design, just rendered with the live action actors, now I just want to stay as far away as possible. Fuck Hollywood.

I think the suckiness of this has pretty much been a given since it was first announced as a live action film. This horrific reveal has given me hope that it will indeed cross over to "so bad it's good" territory.

I thought it was proven Jim Carrey being in was false?
The Pokemon movie looks funny, at least. Like, self-aware funny.
This though... Why is this being made? WHY!? Haven't they hurt Sonic enough, these fricken fricks?

So it's just gonna be this for 2 hours with Jim Carey yelling "I HATE THAT HEDGEHOG!"?

Serious question but do you think that given nearly everybody is united in this thing being awful looking (not just here but Twitter, other forums and even some newspapers lol) that they may just change his design? It’s happened before.
I mean all they had to do was do the same sort of look as he was I wreck it Ralph, but with a realistic texture if they had to. Hell im a classic>current guy but I would have took that over... this...

Actually Sony had the rights to this before Paramount, and while a Sony animated film might not sound too good given the Emoji Movie (they've done other animated films, some of which are better, but oof that one was BAD) but just look at the amount of style and unique look their Spider-man: Into the Spider-verse film has. Sonic getting an animated film with a slick look (not necessarily Spider-verse's look, but something interesting, but heck even a traditional 3D animation style would be fine) could have been awesome, but alas we're left with this abomination that not even Lovecraft could love.

Was kind of amazing, though.

Was this posted yet?
Looks awful.
EDIT: My bad, seems this is fanart, but it does give us an idea of how awful it could be, I guess!

Another poster has been found. Something about Sonic having human-ish proportions just looks so damn wrong. I'm watching Sonic Boom now and that Sonic looks perfectly fine as a 3d representation of him.
This film is going to be weird and bad, but maybe bad in a good way.
For some reason, all I can think about is that Sonic currently has his nuts on the Golden Gate bridge

The logo of the movie also looks like something from the 1990s.

Nice pastel colours. The art director sure got the tone right.

The real question is, will Knuckles get impregnated with Sonic's baby?

I think I figured it out! This movie is going to be an homage to the origin story comic.
Instead of Sonic being a green (light brown?) Hedgehog who turns blue because speed force or something, it's a human who turns into a blue nudist streaking faster than the speed of sound.

Seems like Beast's (X-Men) illegitimate child.
