smash was what finally got me to play all of the console KH's and kept me sane during a rough time in my life so uh, yeah in hindsight it did turn out to be a big moment in my life lol
thankyou nomura for doing immense things to my gender with your funny disney series and PS1 game remake

Got to that cutscene with his herbal teas yesterday and fuck, hit me harder than I thought it would

Nah that's fair lmao
"Smart" chars tends to be one of my favorite tropes
But it comes down to excecution
Taion is just great

I don’t mind smart chars, I think it’s moreso how he takes the longest of the lot to ease up around the teamup

yeah that I understand
A lot weren't fond of him during first impression
I just warm up to him pretty quickly

meanwhile lanz and sena immediately go “ok fusion dance time we’re bezzies now” lmao

Sena is just..........

Probably the weakest char of the main 6
Lanz at least has his moments even though the game keeps showing the same fucking scene from Joran multiple times LMAO

I just didnt vibe with the game as much as i wished to
Maybe expectations were insanely high but i didnt really feel anything so far

I find XB3 solid, but I still prefer XB1's story and chars far more so

It's not just a Sonic thing
Halo had a similar problem with Megablocks, when they put out toys related to Halo Infinite before the game was even announced

I guess not everything can be ordered for pickup, but can still be purchase at the store?
Its better to go directly to the store and find them, There's always the likelihood that you order something for pickup, and then its suddenly out of stock.
Because somebody at the store will have to find it and put it aside, If they don't, it means they ran out of stock, because somebody else came and bought the last one.

Gamescom aint all that

Only reason I think a slight chance, is because I know Geoff likes his celeb appearances. And he’s established at least some good ground with paramount come sonic 2’s drop at the game awards, the fallout show with Amazon, etc.
Though ofc, that was the game awards
unique osprey
yeah i dont think there's a real chance
SGF is waaaay bigger than gamescom, if they wanted to do the game/movie duo trailer reveal thing, they couldve just done it there

Though idk, Sega and paramount could be going for the same thing they did with Sonic 2 and frontiers, with sxs generations and movie 3.
But that’s the slimmest/tiny of chances

I doubt it, He could pull a fast one on us again

again i think with how theyre pushing tf1 it makes more sense to pair it with the sonic trailer

By showing new footage from Sonic x Shadow Generations, And then saying, Shadow is going appear in the next Sonic movie in December.

then again i only recently remembered that sonic 2's trailer announcement was, like, the DAY before and not a longer notice

Geoff really needs to shake up his events at this point
Especially SGF

That went nowhere

Geoff trying to be a hypeman but failing

The way he reacted over SXSG is fucking hilarious LMAO

@steep sequoia bro no joke

Well, i guess the chances of sonic 3 raised
quaint mountain
He went to an instant frown everytime he went off camera
He's always like this lmao
The bigger problem would've been if he was frowning on camera
Like during VGX

Feels like he only cares about "cinema" when it comes to gaming

Like why take up the mantle if ur ass doesn’t want to be there
We all know it’s prob the bank he makes for this
quaint mountain
I mean, if he didn't, he wouldn't have been making those in the first place
north vault
I think he should fuck off into a bin and stay there forever
also for all of his events to cease permanently

Ngl I find Geoff’s events funny
Cuz it can either be some of the greatest shit
Or some of the worst things I’ve ever seen
quaint mountain
I'd still rather them exist than have literally nothing
olive vortex
^^^
quaint mountain
Since seemingly nobody else wants to actually do these
north vault
I’ll take the nothing over the highest-bidder-wins method of his shows
ideal solution would just be E3 back again but like
with someone more competent at running events than the previous E3 lot lol
quaint mountain
Reedpop was supposed to do one
olive vortex
That’s what I thought Geoff was gonna do 😭
quaint mountain
And they seemed more competent supposedly, but that fell through
olive vortex
I will admit
north vault
the bar is at “not doxxing all the press via an excel doc again” surely someone can clear that right
olive vortex
Geoff’s whole “highest price gets a 20 second trailer” to then having only influencers play the games behind the scenes
Ngl kinda felt shitty
quaint mountain
Also the "highest-bidder" shit is still much cheaper than having E3 booths for companies, so why should they bother with that
olive vortex
True
quaint mountain
When just posting on the internet brings enough attention anyway
olive vortex
I do feel like the play days should’ve at LEAST been semi public
quaint mountain
Big companies are cheap as hell and for indies E3 would still be unattainable anyway
wind sparrow
Anyone else notice the button on Sonic for the new toy pack?
quaint mountain
ideal solution would just be E3 back again but like

snow tangle
He didn't post anything else about that

Maybe you can still buy them after all
wind sparrow
I get off in 2 hours so we’ll find out then
snow tangle
Its probably that Target is being stupid
It could be that this particular Target have lazy employees, and won't even bother checking if the items are on sale today.
And stuff like this happens, you check on the app that an item you want is in stock at the store, you go to store and can't find it, you ask an employee to check if you have any in stock on the back, and they won't even bother to do it.
and usually they do have the thing in stock, they just too lazy to go back there and give it to you.

When I go I’ll go through self check out

I honestly don’t think they will.
In terms of dropping it somewhere important.
They honestly don’t need to wait up until transformers week, or the week before to warrant the response that they want.

Also if we did get a trailer the playlist would be updated right?
lone lantern
The time for “important events” runs up after gamescom, and long passed after comic con in terms of all eyes events to look too.
That and most studios don’t make you go watch a movie to see a trailer linked up with it as a debut/grip tactic these days I feel.
But I might be wrong

This movie has been fairly described to be..the BIG leap if you will.
To kick off into this cinematic universe idea they have (which, the correct term is a franchise, but I digress).
So I think there’s anticipation on where this film will take them, and by turn us come the next few years.

unique osprey
you could argue they’ve been slacking with the movie 3 marketing but if paramount shows sonic 3 during the movie they’ve been pushing for most of the year then that’ll definitely give it some momentum
lone lantern
That and he probably shouldn’t come back imo, in the films. I think a trilogy with him as the start off point villain is great, in a story that’s probably gonna keep progressing and doesn’t need to adhere to the status quo that the games need to have.
glacial cliff
I mean I feel again that’s what the tf1 trailer showcase is for
I really don't see the correlation tbh. They are different teams and the movies are 3 months apart. They will not cannibalize each other
That happens with video games because they are way more expensive
And people have to pick and choose

it’s pretty apparent that they constructed the show to keep the budget in mind, I don’t think it would’ve had a major effect on the sonic 3 production scale aside from being a basis for the pipeline
lone lantern
Also Sonic 2 had ONE leading man as the cg head for character animation. MPC, with an animation team composed of freelancer and junior animators. So I don’t think that helped with things, aside from Covid restrictions as well

Sonic 3 has like..8 VFX companies attached. Partial of most being from the Knuckles show as well in translation, hence why tobey Ascher said that they’re going to look about the same in quality

Sonic 3 they were filming with the actors prior to the strike, But when it happened, they continue on with just the VFX, and by the time the strike ended, they were able to get the actors back, That can cause a delay in post production.

I’d assume that around this time, a few trailer shots have probably been done. Considering most VFX for trailers aren’t even complete beforehand, up until the coming weeks or even the day prior of premiere.
It ain’t like it was during may where a vast majority thought a trailer would drop after cinemacon, when it was a few weeks out after they just finished wrapping up filming at least.
We’re a few months out and down into that prime proximity for a trailer drop. So anytime from August to September I feel
