So it probably kickstarts off the heels of episode 3.
#Wade (Formerly KNUCKLES)
vital eagle
wise hazel
That's where we see Knuckle's flaming gloves
finite onyx
The signs are pointing to hallucination 
vital eagle
Then we see Knuckles flaming gloves in episode 6.
finite onyx
If Neon Nights is a location they visit and fight in in episode 1, but the Pachamac scene occurs in the same place in episode 4, yeah
wise hazel
Also the rest of the Whipple family members just there casually with Knuckles, Wade probably told them about him
I think by this series, The whole world knows about Sonic, Tails and Knuckles, Because since Sonic 2, There probably been a ton of news reports about a giant robot at Green Hills at the time.
finite onyx
Isn't Pete their rival
Twitter
In spite of being a whipple as well
also there's barely anything on episodes 2 and 3
Twitter
wise hazel
The most interesting part about this, Is he's wearing clothing with the union jack flag, Does that mean The whipples are british decent?
Wade having relatives who are english.
vital eagle
Episode 2 is gonna be that ski lodge we saw during the set photos.
No doubt in mind.
We saw it sparingly in the trailer as well.
wise hazel
yeah, they do some road trip type of thing
they end in some area, Where Wade gets on Knuckles and he glides.
wise hazel
episodes are 1 hour each which is crazy, There is so much they can add.
finite onyx
which then becomes
so again it really seems like they spend a lot of time in green hills lol
vital eagle
Episode 1 starts in green hills and more than likely ends with departing from green hills.
Episode 2 onward, it's just a steady approach to Reno, with some stops along the way (The Ski Lodge, and Wade's family/childhood home).
last episode, ig we'd circle back to coming back to Green Hills.
vital eagle
different bowling alley
wise hazel
Episode 6 will be that bowling championship match, which ends with the setup for Sonic 3 and a post credit scene.
wise hazel
I could see somebody try to get to Shadow for his quills.
wise hazel
the badguy in this show has Knuckle's quills, So somebody will discover Shadow, and try to get his quills too
wise hazel
The thing about that image is, The guy in the middle is kind of dressed like an Owl aka LongClaw.
vital eagle
Yeah that's the (potential) dream/hallucination sequence, so I think it's bound to be the same place with whatever causes it ig.
Cause if that were the case, they should probably be meeting pachacamac in episode 1 then.
Unless he was just chilling in the back or 'off his shift' or somthn lol.
spark wind
👀
vital eagle
Yeah then it's probably the same place, just in different wavelengths (reality & hallucination)
spark wind
Nights, you say?
finite onyx
vital eagle
so there's really only two bowling places, the (maaybe) green hill one (neon nights) , and the Reno one ( champinoship bowling stadium ).
finite onyx
so far yeah
they could be travelling to and from green hills to visit the bowling alley though
All we know is Knuckles is still in the wachowski house in episode 3 at least
vital eagle
Just realized this meant that Knuckles just blasted another hole in someone's house.
finite onyx
vital eagle
This dude got a problem man.
finite onyx
The abuse that that house receives on a daily basis is cartoonish in nature
From Sonic's antics mowing the rugs to Knuckles demolishing any wall in his way
And now a gladiator pit
vital eagle
Well, I don't think it's the wachowski household.
cause Knuckles punches the dude through wade's childhood room lol
finite onyx
It's wades?
vital eagle
(Ninja turtles bed)
and massive 'WHIPPLE' poster on the wall.
which is more than likely, pistol pete.
vital eagle
Since it's also labeled under the episode number that is the Shabat dinner, we can probably assume that episode is wade family centric.
finite onyx
Unless it's not their house
vital eagle
then why is there a hole in the wachowski house
There isn't, it's being patched up.
from the last movie I mean at least.
vital eagle
We tend to get stupid 
finite onyx
ok so Knuckles is free to travel outside of green hills from the drop at least
vital eagle
Looks like it.
There's somthn chaotic abt Agent Mason.
He got somthn he want to prove.
wise hazel
The interesting thing about that nametag, Is its using those lables that you print stuff on, So somebody or him put that on a nametag, and it says manager on it for some reason.
finite onyx
now THAT is a gun
civic marlin
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GF1ChDfXEAAeJvb?format=png&name=900x900
that is a gun
vital eagle
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GF1ChDfXEAAeJvb?format=png&name=900x900
I have a feeling fans are gonna like these two more than they think atm.
the sonic films tend to surprise with the human cast at times (Agent Stone, even Tom & Maddie, Rachel, and the Olive Garden guy)
if played right, they could be pretty fun.
wise hazel
The only way Knuckles could have dreamed of him at the Bowling alley, Would be if he was there with Wade at some point, And he has memory of being inside a bowling alley, When he started dreaming, His subconscious projected the bowling alley to his dream, and a projection of Pachacamac, Somebody he used to know when he was a kid.
vital eagle
I just don't think we're gonna reach chaos council levels (even though I'm a bit partial to them)
vital eagle
The only way Knuckles could have dreamed of him at the Bowling alley, Would be i...
The alternate path (which I hope ISN'T the case man) is that it's wade hallucination
wise hazel
The alternate path (which I hope ISN'T the case man) is that it's wade hallucina...
But how could a projection of Pachacamac show up in Wade's dream.
finite onyx
vital eagle
And the only evidence that I think could make that slightly plausible is that he knows abt the 'Flames of Disaster' because of that storyboard a bit ago.
But even then, Knuckles could've just shared that information with him ig.
wise hazel
Maybe, Or they both have the same dream together.
Remember there are supernatural stuff going on, If they were near the master emerald
finite onyx
lmao he stepped in a trap laid out for him
wise hazel
The master emerald show Knuckles a projection of the past
proven oriole
lmao he stepped in a trap laid out for him
Me when I want to drink a coffee cup and now my life is at risk
finite onyx
I thought for sure the whip sound effect meant the biker was whipping and pulling him
But no
That's a looped cord and everything
😭
wise hazel
lmao he stepped in a trap laid out for him
They know he's an idiot, and they predicted where he would stand, He probably does this every morning.

I bet we'll get another Knuckles trailer by next month, as we get closer to the premiere.

QUESTION FOR CHAT: What character do you guys think will be in the post-credits scene in the show's finale?
open vigil
Eggman
vital eagle
Agent stone.
wise hazel
I think the post credit scene will be something Shadow related, Since it has to lead up to Sonic 3
shut locust
i doubt it'll be Shadow again tbh
i think it'll be whoever they're planning to introduce in 3 alongside Shadow, either Rouge or Amy
probably Amy
vital eagle
How would yall feel if the trio and shadow are the only CG characters in 3?
as an hypothetical.
finite onyx
neutral
vital eagle
I think if that were the case, I personally think it could def lead to ig..a more "safe bet" tight story. Because it'd essentially just be working off of what already is, with the only new factor being Shadow against the established team.
Not to say that if they added Amy or Rouge, or both, that it'd fall apart. But you'd definetly need to adjust, and get a bit tedious with some things with adding another co. CG star, ig.
wise hazel
I just think there's gonna be some scenes with agents going to that secret facility, Who knows who it could be, Maybe Agent Stone is involved
Agent Stone goes to that place and finds that chamber with Shadow in it, and be like, "Doctor, I think you need to see this."
And we get a shot of Agent Stone standing next to the chamber with Shadow inside.
And it'll be a full shot of Shadow's new design.

amy and rouge are not bringing in money for a movie like this

This is why silver is.coming bros

to be honest, a part of me really does feel like theyre gonna cap off at three

Specially cuz
Jim Carrey is a bit part of this movie series

Its probably for the best

shadow is like big big hype money money
this is the peak of the popularity the sonic movies will get. there are no other characters that have that legacy or hype so subsequent sequels wont bring in as much
civic marlin
This is probably his last movie ever
obtuse owl
and jim carrey wants to go
civic marlin
Yep
A movie with amy as the big deal is not gonna be nearly there as exciting
Yes the lack of female characters is a shame
But if they just dont need em theyw ont use em

literally the only thing they could do if they wanted to make another sonic movie
is make a shadow the hedgehog spinoff. they could easily make a storyline about him that doesnt involve eggman and still bring in cash cause its fucking shadow lol

obtuse owl
metal sonic has not been relevant in public/general audience eye for long ass time
open vigil
True ig
civic marlin
Has he ever been???
civic marlin
He starred on a sega cd game
obtuse owl
After that, Metal Sonic has been completely forgotten
civic marlin
Was on some arcade games
obtuse owl
Metal Sonic used to be extremely popular in the 90s
civic marlin
Then in heroes hes the final final boss
obtuse owl
Now after heroes? He is just.... gone
civic marlin
.... was he????
civic marlin
No he wasnt
obtuse owl
Metal Sonic never existed after heroes
civic marlin
He wasnt even on any tv show in the 90s
He was just on obscure games
A sega cd game, a 32x game. 3 game gear games....
He was NEVER that popular.
open vigil
I wouldn't say he was absent but he's clearly not as relevent as shadow

It's like asking "what would be the story" for an sa2 movie

Thats the thing
The story about sa1 is the story about chaos
A ridiculously less popular character than shadow

tails there because he has to be. he aint even actually do nothing except be like "only sonic the hedgehog could do something like this" and be his hype man 😭
And that:s the problem
open vigil
The story about sa1 is the story about chaos
What if they talk about it in the knuckles series
civic marlin
It really feels like tails is just there for sonic to talk to
open vigil
Like okay
obtuse owl
Shadow's overwhelming popularity
And we already gotten both Tails and Knuckles in the movie
tails there cause he part of the legacy trio that is sonic, tails and knuckles. if it werent for that, tails would be nonexistent in the movies too

IF they were to do a 4th movie "gngngn why?" Idgaf, what game would y'all think they would take inspiration from

Its a shame but thats how it is

genuinely whether Sonic 4 happens rests solely on if they get Carrey back
I doubt they will, and i feel they will cap off on sonic 3 for that as well
The perfect ending for his story

Weither or not they don't do a 4th movie a shadow's series is pretty much a garantee
obtuse owl
general audiences dont give a fuck about silver and metal sonic aint been relevant since heroes, the fall off after movie 3 will be horrendous

if they don't get carrey, tho? 100% reboot within the next five years

Look I'm sorry but people expect way too much over Silver

nor does the chaotix, people really fooling themselves into thinking they'd be in the knux show like ????
civic marlin
They are never getting that money back
obtuse owl
It doesn't have to.be an 06 adaptation, they can use stuff from it tho but like
davih i dont think you understand. its not about the story or what its adapting, it's whatever new sonic character they can use to pull in people to make more money. shadow is the peak of that. there are no other sonic characters that will pull in casual matthews than shadow the hedgehog because he has relevancy that expands past just gaming communities

And I can't really fault them for that
They can reference 06 all they want, but the game's reputation still remains
haughty lava
surprised they haven't done metal at all tbh
high goblet
silver has an audience, but absolutely not a shadow-scale audience lol
Ofc not like shadow but I don't think it'll be a bad idea knowing how much you can do with him bc.of his powers

like, the quill power setup from 1 feels purpose-built for him??
civic marlin
Metal is just
haughty lava
chuck the quill in a robot that looks like sonic as a power source, bam
civic marlin
Not worth the cg power lmaoooo
obtuse owl
maybe if they made the 3rd movie about metal and amy and kept holding people out for shadow, a fourth movie would be more plausible, but they went straight to teasing the money maker at the end of movie 2
they know what we're here for

2000s nostalgia is in rn

@obtuse owl has earned the Sonic Adventurer role!
vital eagle
I don't think a studio takes the shot of multiple times of calling the films so far a sonic universe, and trademarking it as such, just to conclude at 3.
Now maybe, 3 could be Jeff's final film, in the directors chair if they're still focusing on expanding as far as they want atm. Getting different heads out for..idk how ever many they wanna make.
open vigil
Nah i'm still dead set on a shadow series
vital eagle
I wouldn't mind a James gunn directed sonic film. If he wanted to I mean.

That and I legit think we've barely scratched the surface of this new universe a...
If it were up to me, and we're going beyond 3 films. I'd wrap up this trilogy as a kind of swan song to earth's stories, and then going into the next installments with more sonic world centric stuff.
civic marlin
They would have to significantly change things up
A sonic movie without jim carrey would have to be like
Toned down somehow
near prism
A sonic movie without jim carrey would have to be like
He was the best part of the movies (that wasnt knuckles), i have no clue how they can write robotnik out of the 4th movie, even if they got a new one to be robotnik, it wouldnt be the same
vital eagle
Agent stone could still stick around maybe, idk graduating to his status/level.
That or..Metal Sonic taking the main villain spot, and his arc concluding in essentially neo over the course of some films.
Agent stone can stick around as long as you don't try to make Jim Carrey, at least.
vital eagle
Anything can be done with the right writing imo.
obtuse owl
i mean they could just actually do that and make it mid as fuck
civic marlin
And or lose money
obtuse owl
and they just keep shelving them out as bottom of the barrel movies that only get remembered for the first 3
for minimal cash
wouldnt be the first time
vital eagle
Though I also think that's why the knuckles show holds some importance, in wanting to see if a project connected to the films can stand without him to.
And sonic himself.
civic marlin
Id wish they would be smarter i know companies just want money
But to me, if they ended this whole thing with sonic 3, beautiful
But i know they wont
vital eagle
I just hope they still touch on the owl and echidna stuff in sonic 3.
obtuse owl
Same
vital eagle
Intertwine it in some way. We really don't know where sonic still came from initially, and or where his chaos energy originated from.
obtuse owl
My biggest worry in Sonic 3 is being way too focused over Shadow's story
I get it's Shadow but I won't like the movie if it's just only to one char alone
As a movie I wanted to care more about the entire cast instead
vital eagle
And because of the factor of the master emerald being surfaced under the ocean, and the chaos emeralds being stuck within. I think shadow had to have gotten his in some other fashion.
civic marlin
Sonic 3 is not gonna be about just shadow
obtuse owl
technically gerald and maria counts as additional game series characters besides shadow
civic marlin
It will be about eggman as well. Sonics development, and such
near prism
I get it's Shadow but I won't like the movie if it's just only to one char alone
Its still the sonic movie 3, itd be pretty stupid to relegate mfing sonic to a side char
civic marlin
He wont lol
civic marlin
Idk why you guys are worried about that
haughty lava
Reckon with 3 they’re gonna have shadow as the big bad and lean on “Sonic and Eggman… working together??” as the big hook
vital eagle
I'd be worried abt if like..Amy and Rouge were announced to be in it. Because you also got Tom, Maddie, Eggman, Stone, and the new human cast additions.
haughty lava
usual next big step with big film baddies and shadow’s the perfect setup for it
civic marlin
And do something to humanize eggman and his family
Frontiers kinda touched on the subject of Marias passing basically leaving him to be rejected by everyone
vital eagle
Movie robotnik is an orphan, so I'm not sure how emotionally resonate he is of his og family.

It doesnt ahve to be with him ending as a villain

Thats what i mean

The.storyboards are interesting
haughty lava
From TDK joker to 60s tv joker lol
high goblet
But we don't know much, we only see shadow using time.travelling it seems
vital eagle
Yeah Eggman's arc is gonna have to wrap here.
civic marlin
If thats the end of jim carrey as an actor, they could just not have eggman again
And cap off his storyline with the whole sa2 thing
vital eagle
Whether that be like..a sacrifice, change of heart, or straight up prison or somthn. I don't think letting his story linger is the best bet.
civic marlin
Yea
Honestly i just like the idea of him being like, questioning everything. And we dont see more of him at the end
He just disappears
Ambiguous ending
vital eagle
Like goob.
civic marlin
Is he back to being evil and preparing his next plan?
high goblet
He dead
near prism
Like goob.
Omfg yes like goob, perfect example

An ambiguous ending for eggman's story
Goob clearly was regretting everything though

Wonder if we'll see Tails get his own spark of electricity in 3. Maybe that could align with his arc..of most likely, becoming his own hero or somthn.
But at the same time, he already was that in sonic 2. So ig independence.
civic marlin
Not have his emotional like, things could have been different, more so just like him having perspective of things that happend
vital eagle
Idk what Tails position is abt to be lol
civic marlin
No one knows
I feel if tails is still this like
Take him out of the story and it would end the same kind of deal
Imagine a character like amy
vital eagle
Not sure if it'd end the same tbf, Tails was the only reason sonic didn't get his head caved in, and went exposition mode on what was going on.
He had his place in the narrative, he was just kind of..accurate to a fault.
civic marlin
Yea cuz he came in a game that had zero story kinda
vital eagle
Like yep. That's Tails. Beginning of their bromance, kinda thing. Bare essentials.
civic marlin
It would be far more interesting if we had a better arc going on
Like him before getting to earth, maybe stalking sonic around, that kind of stuff
vital eagle
Which ig worked, sonic and tails connection isn't to deep to begin with. There was no..split up between the two because of an misunderstanding, they just kind of get off on a good foot in every media.

don't even explain why he's there, he just is.

You are absolutely correct
I just love to see humans that arent just im a normal incapable human compared to these super powered creatures
And instead are able to bring in the action and be crazy and helpful

Also there's a kid with a bicycle helmet in the background, So I assume he borrows the kids bike.

More specifically the mom of this Susie girl (as you can see is blurry in the shot atm.)

Because susie appears in 4 episodes, along with her mom according to IMDB. So, those two hold some sort of importance to Wade & the bowling thing.

I still don't know why folks thought that the chaotix would appear in the show.
Other than one off-hand game, and a meaningful tie in the comics at times
If the entire show were announced to be like..fully animated, or on some 2d flash type of thing.
Then maybe that'd be more plausible, but I think the moment I took in the fact it was gonna be live action, I knew those three weren't likely.
That and the aspect that it was supposed to tie into or lightly transition into 3, I assumed it would be more 'grounded' (Sonic Movie 1 terms).
shut locust
ngl i think they'd be better in their own spin-off series
i feel the only new CGI character will see in the series outside of Phacamac (and maybe Tikal) is whoever will be the post credits tease in the series finale, my money's on Amy

saw a post on Reddit, and it had the best idea for putting Amy in the Knuckles series, now i am aware her chances are next to impossible, i know that, and i'm fully ready to accept her as just a post-credits tease in the finale, but i really like this idea, that being Amy having her own side-plot in the last 10-15 minutes of every episode, as it says "This way she wouldn't need as much of an introduction in the movies, and people who didn't watch the series wouldn't be missing much"

actually, now that i think about it, let her be silly AND mischievous, there's a thing not in any incarnation of Amy before i think, and it ties into an old name for her, Rosy The Rascal
obtuse owl
Yeah I prefer Amy be a silly girl instead
It fits her character perfectly
Her being a girl boss is a poor choice over her
vital eagle
Telling y’all man. That Christmas special with Amy during the mania animations is the blueprint
More specifically because of Tyson being a certified producer, I just gotta feeling

with Tyson being involved, i have no doubt in my mind that like with Knuckles, the Movies are gonna PERFECT Amy and make the best version of her
civic marlin
unwavering optimism and kindness, but with that energy of like ok this girl is a bit too much and she may lead people to messy situations
but is the thought that counts

Im sure with Tyson, Its the same for Shadow, Who needs a really good representation

she has her goals but she will stop em to help others even if they say no

I love the sound of these interviews honestly, they have been careful with the characters

If anything, after the trilogy they might just focus on other characters and stories
It might be Sonic going to different places and side character focused stories

Same brain cell moment.
civic marlin
This feels a lot more organized
fossil halo
Yeah Marvel has too much going on, has been since phase 4 with the shows but also movies
I think they will also change strategy soon
So this must mean there is a deeper idea for this Knuckles show, than just let's make a spinoff
I still think Knuckles and Wade are a fun combo but I would have added Tails as well for some brain power
civic marlin
Honestly it would feel kinda generic to have smart and dumb and dumber
At least wade and knuckles are intelligent in ways they lack
vital eagle
So I think this more or less confirms that the films with continue beyond 3.
Which, I think we all more or less knew would be a possibility.
Ig my mind just goes back to if Jeff will direct them all.
I know he's gonna have some amount of connection, but I wonder if there will be others in that creative seat (movies or spinoff)
Because in my mind, I doubt it, since that'd be mentally taxing for anybody lol.
But crazier things have happened.
wise hazel
So that seems to be the game plan in terms of the topics of spinoffs & the films...
It would be cool to see spinoffs featuring the other characters, Like what if they did a Choatix series, It can be a detective style show with those characters.
