Sonic Movie

[peak dew]

shows up like twice and gets his ass beat

[sturdy token]

yeah I agree there completely

he was like eggman in the first movie

but far less involved plot wise

and far less interesting individually

[peak dew]

at least eggman has some actual scenes there, along with the obvs carrey stage presence

[sturdy token]

I think agents should've been the antagonists of Knuckles

[drifting mason]

I don't know if there's any saving grace for him, none of his character that we've seen is compelling at all.

He is a big bad guy and that's kind of it.

[peak dew]

mechanic spends like 90% of his time in his workshop sulking, then turns up in a mech and gets beaten up by some dork with bowling balls

[sturdy token]

yeah that's the weakest link of the Knuckles show for me

[peak dew]

100%, yup

if they had to have a big fancy showdown at the end, should've been them in the mech

fuck, bring in that big GUN stomper from SA2, why not

[sturdy token]

Mhm

they're far more compelling, they have clear motivations and they have a very good chemistry with eachother.

[dusty lotus]

so, those who've seen the movie

what's your (short, spoiler-free) opinion

[peak dew]

agreed, they're a lotta fun

meanwhile the mechanic's just sat goin "hrmmmmmm..... knuckles......." and thats it

get a room already smh

[dusty lotus]

On the same boat too

[fallen harness]

[sturdy token]

It's interesting to hear that Jim is an artistic consultant

and the reasons he returns as Eggman

[sturdy token]

Glad we can agree on this.

I will later watch the other series (adventures, satam and underground) to see where they would rank

[indigo vapor]

Ew ok nvm sonic movies is now mid

[drifting mason]

Does it become certified fresh with 90%?

[sturdy token]

75% minimum

[tacit apex]

If the rest of the reviews are positive, it could hit 90

[sturdy token]

after 80 reviews, including 5 of top critics

[tacit apex]

Certified Fresh is 75% or higher

[drifting mason]

I think I'm thinking of the wrong rating then.

[tacit apex]

I would love to see it reach 90% though

[slow maple]

It becomes certified tomato puree at 95%

[sturdy token]

As of now, it needs 13 positive reviews to reach 90%

[tacit apex]

Have any video game adaptations reach 90%?

[sturdy token]

there isn't a classification like this in the website

only certified fresh and that's with 75% or more after getting 80 or more reviews, including 5 of top critics

[tacit apex]

Fallout the TV show has a 94%

I went to watch Babylon last year (great movie btw) and there were some girls on the seat below me, seemed like the movie wasnt interesting enough for them cuz they just pulled their phone and started playing candy crush and the worst thing was that it was with the bright at max so it would hit lot more to me 💀

Was watching a review that was spoiler free for almost the entire run time until the end where they were about to spoil the post credits scene (granted they were a casual and didn’t know the significance)

I was able to click off in time lmao

the writers

genuinely think they wrote something good

or if they know it's shit for most people but might please kids

not all of us here have seen it yet

[indigo vapor]

Yea they have a point

[delicate galleon]

To put that into perspective, Sonic 3’s Thursday night gross was more than double the first film and about 3% higher than the second film.

That puts the worldwide box office gross right now at around $7.8 million USD.

That is incredible

I saw a spoiler in the results

To make it even better for us, the main competition is now tracking at an opening weekend of less than $50 million USD

Gotta go fast!!! @sonic_hedgehog 3 just hit theaters today. For all you longtime fans of the classic Sonic games, you’re in for a real treat. There’s more of an evolution this time around, the music in Sonic 3 aims to capture the speed, energy, and nostalgia we all know and love.

[tacit apex]

Does this mean, He used music from the games?

Besides Live and Learn

[slow maple]

Yes

I think there's probably a few motifs from the games that I missed

I have noticed at least like

7-8 instances of video game music playing

Ranging from a few seconds to a minute

[tacit apex]

is it the original game music, or orchestral versions?

[amber mortar]

prolly orchestrated

[slow maple]

Mix of both

[tacit apex]

So I would guess something like that little Green Hills bit from the opening credits?

like you hear a familiar melody

[slow maple]

Most of them are orchestrations

[tacit apex]

ah

[slow maple]

I'd say overall there's a decent amount of guitar use in this one

Just check if seats are still available for tomorrow at 10:45am, It seems like nobody want to see the movie at that time, There are a couple of seats taken, But Its possible those were reserved via the a-list, and they aren't going to show up.

And its the small room

[sick coyote]

most people generally don;t wanna go to the theater in the morning or early afternoon lol

which makes it a great time to go

[tacit apex]

Look how insane the times for tomorrow is for my theater.

I don't know why they are only showing it in English 4 times, but way more times with English with Spanish subtitles

why does AMC chose to show the movie more times with spanish titles

Yeah, Don't have to deal with a large crowd, Its just you, and maybe just a few people that might show up

But the reason why I go to the movies early, Is to save on time, So when its done at some point in the afternoon, There still plenty of time left to do whatever.

so

those who've seen the movie

idk if it's the right channel

is it really clearly better than the first two? an opinion from someone who isn't like super fan of the movies would be greatly appreciated

even in dms if it's forbidden here

cause i'm getting hopeful after seeing the scores lmao

[spice ember]

I think they did the best they could with this type of adaptation while also keeping it restrained in the movieverse

But besides minor gripes they did a satisfactory job

[dusty lotus]

hmmm okay so they kinda reached the glass ceiling

[spice ember]

Can’t really elaborate much without going in depth so just see the movie

But if you think your expectations are too high, it’s fine to temper them

[fallen harness]

Oh that’s

That’s the movie instagram account sharing AI fan art

[dusty lotus]

they're not like too high

but i'm starting to expect a really good movie

well all things considered ofc

a really good family movie

Movie 1 is okay

Movie 2 is nice

(to me)

[spice ember]

If the others are just okay or nice to you, I feel confident you’ll think this one is good

Or maybe more, idk

[dusty lotus]

done deal

in case it's not good

ig to give a different perspective as someone who never fw the movies, 3 leaves me conflicted cause its telling an sa2 like story but made a lot of changes that i dont really think were for the better imo but it has cool fights but i didnt really felt emotionally connected to anything i was seeing

[dusty lotus]

Hmmm interesting

I think I'll have the same opinion

Just shy of my guess

Hopefully it still makes it to $70 mil

This isn't the final number for friday could still go up or down a little

Might be heading for less than Sonic 2's weekend, but it will outpace it quickly by the 25th

yeah. It still isn't in various countries so it'll pick up the pace

[paper cradle]

from that video on the paramount channel with the "only watch if you need more convincing to see sonic 3" disclaimer

i just sharpened it for that translated pic though, i think its basically the same quality originally

watched it, mine better lol

[tawdry trellis]

ok so I'm thinking they're gonna do something with her related to the new lore team

[paper cradle]

idk it seems to me like she was more likely originated from the japanese side of the IP

[tawdry trellis]

like we just learned Evan Stanley is an "official lore artist" I think they're gonna do some like lore guidebook

like Encyclo-speed-ia but less focused on the games and more focused on the Sonic world itself

[sturdy token]

It would be cool

to have a book format of Tailstube

or something that explains the world of Sonic

Though it could be some sort of online thing, like a website

still hope for $80M opening

Wish I had image perms lol

[slow maple]

$80 mil domestic is unlikely unless it somehow goes viral viral tomorrow

[sturdy token]

Unrelated but my sister loved 'Run it' lmao

[elder bear]

tbf opening day still can be a little higher and beat $27M of second movie

and yeah i think tomorrow is gonna eb better

like omg bro please i need this movie to have a higher opening than fucking fnaf movie

[slow maple]

It's a marathon not a sprint

Fnaf released outside of christmas time

Fnaf fell like a rock after release and did worse than Sonic 1 which stopped because of covid

[elder bear]

thats true yea

[delicate galleon]

not to mention that FNAF also released day one on Peacock

gonna be honest

im someone that vouches for metacritic over rotten tomatoes cause its more accurate to how critics actually feel

however, sonic 3's critic score is higher than the first two by 10 points on that site (59 compared to sonic 2's 47) so is still worth celebrating i think :)

Let's just say it's between 10-30 Million for now.

Considering Kraven checked out of the theaters early...Mufasa needs to prove to Disney this unnecessary expansion is still profitable.

But Sonic's audience isn't getting any smaller. Disney's on the other hand....is.

[wanton forum]

Just got out of my showing -obviously need to collect my thoughts and I’m conscious of recency bias

But I enjoyed it a lot and I would say it’s the best one so far

Also the room was literally full and nearly everyone had either one of the popcorn buckets or the novelty cups, they must be making an absolute fortune on those

thanks rachel wagner from rachel’s reviews

[peak dew]

first reviewer that actually likes sonic in the sonic movies

[slow maple]

Nostalgia Critic liked the second movie 2

And for some reason he's been playing Shadow Gens

[spice ember]

okay buddy

[slow maple]

This movie's heart is only in its posters I feel

[night anvil]

these two lions look the exact same

[slow maple]

😭

As lions do

On National Geographic

The funny part is that this movie isn't nearly as photorealistic as the remake movie

But it's still so much that people don't notice unless you put them side to side

[peak dew]

yeah, there's an attempt at a style beyond just purely "is realism"

not a very good one!! but an attempt all the same

barry jenkins, man, what are you doin on this thing

absolutely deserves better than directing rent is due: the movie

[worldly patio]

I really dont understand why they didn't make Scar more brown-ish or hell just give him a black mane, that kind of lion actually exists!

[amber mortar]

The attempt in question :

POV how it feels to avoid spoilers for sonic 3 when it has a different released in your country and it released to everyone first:

[sturdy token]

If my calculations aren't wrong, if sonic movie 3 gets 4 more positive reviews minimum, it'll become the videogame movie with the highest percentage rating in rotten tomatoes

[analog trout]

Just so many elements that just don’t do the movie favors

[sturdy token]

It's already one of it's own, one of the highest rated videogame movies ever

right now shares #1 spot with Werewolves within

That's one way to get out of a theater.

Seriously, hope that man is alright.

Wow. I'd be lying if I said it's success wasn't derserved

I saw the film myself earlier today....Like I felt watching Transformers One....it is Wonderous.

No spoilers from me, don't worry.

It’s funny how all of Blumhouse’s promo for Fnaf 2 so far has just been antagonising Fnaf fans for complaining about how long the first movie took😭

Except for the poster I guess

[sturdy token]

A lot of companies lately have this adversion towards the fanaticade

like Spider-man

the people behind the writing just do whatever it's in their power to not have Peter and MJ together (in the comics)

and it's so bizarre

like they know about the backlash and yet they remain still in position

[ivory loom]

I do genuinely feel bad for Zeb Wells

His spider man run may have sucked, but he does not deserve the mass amount of hatred

Some people need to learn that the people that make things are actual people

So unless they’re a piece of shit in real life, people need to control their emotions

[sturdy token]

I do think the way is communicated is important, sure but also they have to make sure to not do things that the fans will absolutely hate

the whole Ms. Marvel debacle being proof of this

[ivory loom]

I think most of the time, it’s the fault of executives

Either way, I don’t care since I’m kind of in the “Sonic Pre 2022” mood for spider man

As in I don’t want anything to do with him right now

[sturdy token]

Fair enough

I was more interested in the nature behind that type of scenarios

rather than Spider-man's specific scenario

there is an interesting point that dunkey brought up where ign reviews can be a gamble

you can get so many different people with so many different opinions

at the end of the day, i dont think ign is bad or anything, its just the unfortunate nature when having a system like this

[willow forge]

This is advice that often goes unheeded by the majority of movie makers

[willow forge]

IGN was never known to be sensical at times.

There was a time when they had some sort of pedigree and decorum. But that has since long passed.

[dusty lotus]

IGN will always be like that so it's no surprising

Their ranking system makes 0 sense

[delicate galleon]

Compared to the previous films, it is about 7% higher than the first film, and 14% lower than the second.

[elder bear]

$300-350M domestically is guaranteed considering WOM

[delicate galleon]

Nonetheless, I consider beating Disney domestically a…

W! 🎉

[elder bear]

mufasa probably gonna do $170M

[delicate galleon]

Overtake a DC film - ✅
Overtake a Marvel film - ✅
Beat a Disney film - ✅

When they say it’s yet to open overseas

Do they just wait til it opens everywhere and pool it together as one combined overseas number?

[elder bear]

sonic opens 25th in most markets and everywhere in january

[wicked hearth]

Wait don't they consider sunday opening weekend too?

I thought numbers were out only for up to saturday

[delicate galleon]

Sunday is considered as opening weekend, yes.

The numbers being used now are projections. Could be higher or lower depending on turnout

Of course we won’t know the total total until around Monday afternoon at best
