thinking about how if revenge guac was in one of the trailers the fandom would’ve had a meltdown about how they ruined shadow before it came out

[sturdy token]

the scene with shadow's capsule being painted by maria

to make him a look like a rabbid

if that visual was revealed without context, the fandom would had lost their minds

[analog trout]

They're ruining the integrity of this profound character!!

[indigo vapor]

And yet Sonic’s the fake

satam fans when the divorce papers are filed (it ended on a cliffhanger just like the show)

also watched Flow tonight and holy shit

holy shit what a movie

[boreal hornet]

It's just their parents divorce papers

You expect them to get married?

[peak dew]

the marriage comes first, then the interest in satam leading to their descent into madness

[indigo vapor]

please spill that movie looks so fucking good

[peak dew]

like Kafka's Metamorphosis but instead of waking up as a giant bug they wake up thinking "I would like to make out and have many children with Sally Acorn"

arguably a worse fate

[indigo vapor]

that’s a sentence

Oh yeah he played Tombstone in spectacular spider-man

only for one episode but yeah if he gave the right tone I could see it.

[peak dew]

rewatching the supers fight and only just clocked on that the backlash from this blastoff literally splits along a fault line through sheer power

literally just tearing the earth apart in a scuffle over james marsden man what a film

already confirmed worst Amy through the sheer power of being a landlord

[tacit apex]

That Super fight would've had a devastating affect in a crowded area

See Man of Steel on why super powered beings shouldn't fight in the middle of a city

[peak dew]

truly shocking that the PG movie did not include the protagonist committing accidental genocide

oh oh oh shit just clocked on too

[tacit apex]

You know, when the TV spots showed the GUN building being destroyed, I thought they were actually gonna shoot at the Earth, But it was just a hypothetical situation

[peak dew]

kinda a corn cob moment but didn't realise til now the complete difference in texture for shadow's gloves

instead of wool or fabric or whatever soft material like sonics he's got more like, sewn leather

god I love the details they put into the movie designs, incredibly cool stuff

[mossy imp]

Y'all ran out of things to talk about😭😭😭

Anyways yeah that's a really cool detail

[tacit apex]

We will talk about every minor detail

[peak dew]

if someone went thru the effort of making it I'm gonna go thru the effort of talking about it!!

[peak dew]

nvm changed my mind six rounds to the back of the skull please

[mossy imp]

I'd love it if they had an in-depth montage of all the details they added, I couldn't really tell since I had a slots overlay blocking 40% of the screen

[tacit apex]

There will be videos that will more then likely do a very deep dive into the movie since its out now digitally, So stuff people miss, they will be able to just find it

[peak dew]

hope there's one which actually goes indepth instead of just like, face value stuff

tried watching one for the new wallace & gromit and it was unbearable cos it was absolutely just plain obvious shit lmao

"in this scene wallace says cracking toast gromit, this is a reference to the other times he has said cracking toast gromit" yeah cheers mate not like its a catchphrase or anything

[mossy imp]

"Gotta Crack Toast☝️"

[peak dew]

"ummm acktually its Cracking Toast's Monster, not Cracking Toast"

[sick coyote]

crazy to think that the movie having one ok rock can be considered game accurate

now that I think about it, that song's in the same album as vandalize I'm pretty sure

[delicate galleon]

It is

[sturdy token]

Oh

also my mom liked Amy

she thinks she's adorable

[indigo vapor]

what can I say except you’re welcome Sonic really loves Tom

Anny Mation (@MationMiss) on X

I’m gonna need them to bring attention to Sonic’s love of lil animals again in Sonic 4, like, Sonic’s connection to nature vs Metal’s hatred towards it is something very important in Sonic CD

Also I just think Amy would think Sonic is cute for being nice to lil critters

X · Jan 24, 2025, 2:12 AM

Honestly I'll be happy if they went with nature vs. machine for sonic 4 movie

[vast inlet]

Probably one of the best showcases of how strong Super Sonic can be

[red field]

i cant take movie sonic seriously for this reason alone

it's too petty i cant

[vast inlet]

Nah, this is dope as hell

I love when losing your friend/parental figure can lead the main hero to the wrong path to the point of severe destruction‼️

[ember talon]

I just love how sonic 3 movie finally demostrate how terrifying super forms can be

[indigo vapor]

Agreed tbh

like they can be a symbol of hope or they can destroy entire civilizations at a time

[peak dew]

Only feels too petty in irl terms imo, in-universe it completely tracks

the notion of having James marsden as a father figure really do be a terrifying fictional creation

[fallen harness]

Jeff Fowler shopping at my work?!

[tacit apex]

The movies never explored Robotnik's obsession with turning animals into robots, That is something they could do in Sonic Movie 4.

[boreal hornet]

He has never done that in the films

[indigo vapor]

how do we tell him

[boreal hornet]

All his drones are remotely operated without utilizing animals. They're definitely avoiding it because it can lead to very weird moral ground especially with how the drone destruction is portrayed

[indigo vapor]

Yea true, cause Sonic lasered a couple ten of them in 2 during the slow mo scene, imagine if there were animals inside of them

[boreal hornet]

Game Eggman's usage of animals in badniks works fine because as soon as you break one, they just poof away and the animal goes free.

Film Robotnik's drones explode on destruction and are always elevated in the air

And they really want you to like Robotnik in the films so if they portray him as an animal abuser they basically puts them in the drones

Yea that's not gonna really look good. Would be funny to see what PETA says tho

[indigo vapor]

After that one tweet (you know the one) I’m keeping my expectations open

[boreal hornet]

I don't think I know the one, I don't look at or remember dumb tweets

[indigo vapor]

Makes sense, and I know what it is but I don’t think I can say it because it’s extremely fucked up

[high anvil]

Lets not forget in the adventure games when you free an animal they are in a green floating force feild for abit, i guess game eggman does think about their safety.

If we don't count sky chase zone from sonic 2 and the opening cutscene from lost world.

[analog trout]

Can’t have working badniks if they’re dead

Sorry for bringing these folks up a couple times already

But shiiiiit, I like Sally as much as the next guy, but goddamn

[amber mortar]

Tvose two comics have ABSOLUTELY nothing in common

[indigo vapor]

“Hmmm how could I make this about Sally”

[ember talon]

Sally fans 💀

I swear why they keep doing this to themselves?

[indigo vapor]

“Because one day Sally will return in Sonic games and comics, as well as the movies”, he said sarcastically

[next wedge]

Oof

[ember talon]

💀

Yeah stay coping sally fans lmao

[mossy imp]

The comic itself makes no sense cuz Movie Sonic's seen a woman before😭

[peak dew]

something very incredibly funny about the thing they consider as a reference to sally being "primary-school level sexism"

[analog trout]

your typical 90s "ew girl!!" vibe

[analog trout]

I guess the gag is more that he never met an animal girl or somethin

[dusky garnet]

Everyone who finds it the “omg girl” joke funny up your standards

[twin shoal]

I could share the same thing with you tho... How long this madness ever stop...

[ember talon]

Let them cope

[fallen harness]

I still don’t get how it’s funny

Only Goku made that sort of Joke work in early dragon ball

(albeit it came with it's fair share of problems)

[ember talon]

Considering Goku kept looking at panties and doesn't understand, not surprise

back then obv lmao

[sturdy token]

Yeah, the joke was funny because of his particular ignorance/unawareness of what a woman is

and his little running act to identify them

The worst "omg girl" is the lorax one

💀

[peak dew]

If they do this I’m gonna burn all reels of Sonic 4 and force the Paramount team to rewrite that shit

Would have made Movie Amy one of my least favorite portrayal if they do this move ngl 💀

Sorry I just never like having a char only existing for shipping

[indigo vapor]

Nah, it’s understandable, I do too

[ember talon]

based

[tacit apex]

If they do it, its probably not gonna be forced, But I do think the Wachowskis have some idea of hooking those two together somehow

[peak dew]

what the fuck do you mean by that

[dusky garnet]

Why

[indigo vapor]

Tiger what the fuck is this entailing

[dusky garnet]

What is the point

[ember talon]

Sometimes I wish you stay quiet tiger

[tacit apex]

Giving Sonic a little advice on how to talk to girls

[ember talon]

?????????

BRO HE TALKED JUST FINE!

He'll be sudden that Sonic didn't expect a female hedgheog, but he is not going to go all shy over it

[peak dew]

oh right okay thats, not as severe as I thought thankfully sadgvhbsdjh

[ember talon]

Nah I'm sorry but I know where is going with it, but nah

I already seen enough romance movies as it is 💀

[peak dew]

the way you worded it sounded like literal organised forced romance and that would be extremely not okay in this I'll be real lmao

[ember talon]

Just only do small little tease for like erm....... one or two scenes that's fine

Just not the entire part of the movie

[peak dew]

anyways I don't think they should or would do it cos movie sonic has minus levels of rizz

[indigo vapor]

Yea I’m fine with the teasing but absolutely DO NOT have these two become a thing

[peak dew]

the most unromantic sonic in any branch of this series by any stretch

[indigo vapor]

“Whoa, I haven’t seen something this chaotic since Skibidi Toilet part 80!”
I’m fucking kms

[peak dew]

he would just talk about watchmojo countdowns

[dusky garnet]

Man, one aromantic sonic is all i ask

Movie sonic has been the most of them all

[indigo vapor]

BASED AF

[dusky garnet]

Are they really just gonna introduce amy for the sake of wow girl for sonic to fall for

That would be ofc, expected cuz people have no taste

But it would suck

[ember talon]

Worst case scenario honestly, but I can't see them do that

[peak dew]

they should introduce her wife Trip too

[indigo vapor]

yea me neither, but all I’m saying is that if they do it, I’m gonna be on the news

[indigo vapor]

now we’re getting somewhere

[dusky garnet]

But also i am being a broken record at this point

But sadly thats gonna be the drill

[peak dew]

at least we had a trilogy of old man yaoi before the straights could ruin things

[ember talon]

I mean tbh straight shipping can be fine

[dusky garnet]

If sonic and amy just be friends in the movie then ill be happy but not with how people demand for it

[peak dew]

(or like, medium man yaoi, how old is eggman in these again like middle-aged right)

[ember talon]

I just don't think Amy should exist mainly for shipping since she is essentially the first female sonic char. It'll be such an asspull for her to just exist

[indigo vapor]

Probably around mid 30’s

[dusky garnet]

Nah no way

[ember talon]

should be younger than in game series I guess, but not too much

[dusky garnet]

Hes 50s

[peak dew]

yeah I was thinking 50s, and stones in his 30s somewhere ig?

[indigo vapor]

Was just about to say, if he was a child by the time Maria died, then yea he’d prob be 50’s or 60’s

[peak dew]

man what an age gap stone you have a TYPE

he yearns for the dilf

[dusky garnet]

it would be a 10 year gap i think

[indigo vapor]

he likes his men aged like fine wine

[dusky garnet]

Anyways
Sonic 4 is gonna be rough for a gay bitter man thats also a fan of amy rose- me

[indigo vapor]

let’s just pray the heads at paramount have them just be friends

[dusky garnet]

Ye

[tacit apex]

Sonic 4 could probably be some terminator like story

and they do love the pop culture references

[indigo vapor]

I do kinda hope they tone down the pop culture references a bit

Like I don’t dislike it but I do think the films could do without them

[tacit apex]

Oh you know they will double down on it

[ivory loom]

actually i dont know i forgot the conversation i was gonna start :|

neo metal sonic plz 🙏

[mossy imp]

Bitch don't you got a man already?😭

[indigo vapor]

😭

[dusky garnet]

Dkekskskkskskskss

What DOES THAT MEAN IEKSKSK

[tacit apex]

We could have a Neo Metal Sonic in 4, But I bet they could save that for a post credits scene, After Metal Sonic was defeated, Robotnik recovers him, and rebuilts into Neo Metal Sonic

Hopefully he won't be a one and done, But something we could see expanded on the other movies

[peak dew]

by movie 4 u will have bf 🫵

[ivory loom]

idk what the point of that is when you can just have neo metal in the 4th movie

[tacit apex]

You could have all 3 stages of Metal Sonic in one movie

[indigo vapor]

it means you’re lucky

[tacit apex]

Regular, Neo, and Overlord

[dusky garnet]

Not sure if i do want that

[peak dew]

fair fair

by movie 4 u will have whoever/whatever your heart desires plus a million dollars 🫵🫵

[indigo vapor]

if u think about it you should up it to a billion

[peak dew]

don't push it buster

[dusky garnet]

Yea its too much

[indigo vapor]

oh okey

[ember talon]

I would agreed but.......

We have multiple metals

I feel like it makes more sense for Neo Metal Sonic being in sonic 4 movie as the de facto leader

[tacit apex]

Something that did happen in the comics too

[ember talon]

Right and even then they aren't going to like complete 1:1 to the comics obviously

They'll take some inspiration of course while managed to do their own thing

Which again is one of the main point of the movie series

Their "own" direction while staying true to the chars

[tacit apex]

These movies references things from other media, So I think the comics are on the table.

[ember talon]

I mean obviously yeah

[mossy imp]

I say just

Wait until you introduce Neo

I probably would think it'd be too fast of a recovery if they made him the antagonist of the very next movie

[ember talon]

Yeah there is that

[tacit apex]

There is something I wanna see happen, Heroes establishes that Neo Metal Sonic can morph into anybody, So we could see him do some T-1000 things, Such as morphing into Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Shadow or Amy.

"If Robotnik comes back in Sonic 4, what was the point of this scene?"
That's the thing, it's not an ending for his character. It's an ending for Robotnik's particular character arc he has in this movie. Just like how he has a character arc in all the movies.

if this is how they bring back Eggman in Sonic 4 Movie I am perfectly okay with it

[sturdy token]

Honestly they cooked

and it would be ironically be accurate to game Eggman with Frontiers

One of the prequel comics shows that Eggman was frustrated with his current machines (Orbot and Cubot) because they were inefficient

and wished that one of his creations makes him proud for a change

[ember talon]

Yeah it seems like they are actually trying to make Eggman feel more "human". Helps that Eggman's char is completely different over the movie series

So the direction is going to be a lot more interesting over him while pushing more over Stone's development towards him

[tacit apex]

With Metal Sonic, Its more then his ultimate creation, I could see that as being a Son of sorts

https://x.com/scurvypiratehog/status/1883075564405449053

Scurvy (@scurvypiratehog) on X

Maybe this is exactly why Metal Sonic exists now? With Ivo's new sense of family, it's not enough to just have machines that are "Obedient" but also one that can be sentient? Something he can be truly "proud of"?

X · Jan 25, 2025, 8:52 AM

[ember talon]

In terms of future for sure

But in sonic 4 movie, I don't think as much

Since it's hard to say whether they'll utilize time travel or not if we get an alternative version of eggman

[tacit apex]

Who knows, Maybe they go the Eggman Nega route

[ember talon]

Probably without using the name obviously

💀

[boreal hornet]

Eggman Nega just sucks as an alternate variant

But Robotnik should just stay dead and have Jim's return be via new flashbacks or something like video/audio recordings

Metal being a creation of GUN works far better anyways

The more I think about it. You think the next movie is going to be a chaos emerald hunt considering we have no idea what happened to them as of now?

[tacit apex]

I dont know if they will do the time stones in the next one, they are too much like the chaos emeralds, So I think there's gonna be something where one of the pieces deals with time.

Also we don't know where the master emerald went

[sweet river]

Wouldn’t be surprised if they just have it just cause

Doesn’t seem like they’re that bothered to keep track of details like that

[analog trout]

yeah, details like those aren't exaaaaaaaaactly important, since that's not usually the point of the scenes

though if I had to be fair, on the other hand, the movies tend to have a habit of just sweeping things under the rug once all's said and done

like,
"Oh, I guess the government just decided to erase Robotnik despite him being hired"
and
"Oh, I guess the Chaos Emeralds are back in the Master Emerald"
etc etc

Ok but consider this. I want Amy to just match movie Sonic's dweeb. I want her to understand, love, and respond to his pop culture references.

She's the manga (Sailor Moon) to his comic (Flash). I want him to do something extremely goofy, and she's just as insane.

X · Jan 26, 2025, 7:36 AM

Nah he cooked with this one

[sweet river]

Matching his corny freak would be the move

[sturdy token]

I kinda want them to have Ranma and Akane energy

https://tenor.com/view/ranma-akane-armwrestling-gif-11186773767983999781

Basically these two like eachother but they are also on eachother's ass

which adds a very good dynamic

Akane annoys Ranma on some form, Ranma annoys her back

or in reverse

That, combined with their pop-culture stuff, would make them very entertaining

"Eh those sailor girls aren't as cool as the speed force"

"How dare you?! Flash would not be able to defeat any of them!"

"Retract yourself!"

[analog trout]

Ranma mention

I don't care what it is, I agree full heartedly

[analog trout]

not to mention,
Akane is someone that enjoys being girly and elegant, cooking and baking (even if she's terrible at it), but just can't help but smash something if you poke her long enough (with Ranma, just one second)

definitely Amy vibes though less bubbly as she's usually seen as

[dusky garnet]

Can that be built naturally then

[sturdy token]

And Ranma has this Sonic vibe of just being a guy doing his own way and be relatively chill but he does poke Akane's nerves from time to time deliberarily

[dusky garnet]

If i have to deal with that

Can they just have a developing kind of relationship

Instead of what people are asking for

Where they is no connection or chemstry at all its just oh its a girl for sonic to go awooga for

[sturdy token]

Yeah. In the context of Ranma, Akane and him were arranged married by their parents but they both hated the idea so they are at odds with eachother for it at first

But as the series goes, both of them slowly see what the other has going for

[analog trout]

mind you, those who want that are usually shippers, who already have the "chemistry" built in their little brains

while films are obligated to make it gradual

[dusky garnet]

No they dont

[sturdy token]

Mhm the movies cannot just state things out of the sudden

[dusky garnet]

All they need to do is to make sonic go immediately gaga for amy and then have girl issues and they will be satisfied lol

The only way id accept something like sonic and amy as sort of a romantic thing is if they are together through the whole movie and have really good chemistry from the get go

[sturdy token]

Ranma-Akane coded dynamic would do a lot for them

[dusky garnet]

So this is the best way to do it

But please

None of this sonic needs to be a simp bs

Let them fight together and have interactions without no one saying omg sonic is into this girl

[analog trout]

true, that's the easiest route to take, given the lighthearted angles these movies have

but I have faith in them to at least make things legitimate, but I'mma wait and see what they do

[dusky garnet]

Let the cast accept amy as a new friend without assuming thinngs

I beg you

[analog trout]

if anything, assuming Amy is from a shite future,

she should get into baking cookies, only to get the most horrible results according to Sonic

||A KOALAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA||

[dusky garnet]

If you are gonna have this happen, at least make it not hetnorm

And thats where i stop at this
If i see another fanart of sonic being a simp for movie amy ill just dropkick the nearest pole

[sturdy token]

I can see Sonic laughing at this and then that gets Amy annoyed

and then she hunts him down to hit for the cookies while Sonic continues to tease her about the cookies

[indigo vapor]

actually can you dropkick me instead so I don’t have to see it anymore

[night anvil]

This would actually be a really clever way to incorporate that Zillow reference

Amy’s just been on earth the entire time, but she’s been living independently unlike Sonic

[indigo vapor]

Actually yea that would be be really nice

essentially doing what sonic should be doing

Doesn’t pre production start next month

[ember talon]

Yeah

This is just misinfo

[tawdry flume]

i wouldn’t be super surprised

[sturdy token]

I assume they already have some small ideas, but the actual pre production hasn't even started

so this shouldn't be taken as legitimate info anyway

[mossy imp]

I mean
It wouldn't be all that surprising anyway given it's adapting CD, which has time travel baked into its gameplay

[amber mortar]

"Sonic movie 4 will feature sonic" type of shit

[mossy imp]

I keep thinking you're some other dude now, bruh😭

[worldly patio]

Same

[tacit apex]

Thought this was interesting, If the movie deals with time travel. https://fixupx.com/ken10drawsstuff/status/1883625419477487673

[agile dragon]

Oo that’s interesting to think about

[tacit apex]

I would assume that saving LongClaw is going to have some really bad consequence in the timeline

[amber mortar]

[kind cedar]

I mean we don't even know if she's dead

cause tails knew longclaw right?

[tacit apex]

Time travel is a very complicated topic, Because if you change something in the past, There's always the possibility that there will be some unforseen consequence as a result of the change in the timeline

[fallen harness]

Prequill comic basically confirmed she died

[kind cedar]

damn

[sturdy token]

Time travel as a narrative element is very tricky to nail, so if they wish to use it, they better make sure to have concrete rules and limits

so it doesn't backfire

[tacit apex]

There are different rules, depending on how they aproach it, They could go the easy route, and do the back to the future rules, Some of the other time travel rules usually result in a different branch of the timeline, which results in a multiversal scenerio.

[sturdy token]

The easier ones, and the ones CD works with for the most part, are back to the future ones

You travel to the past and change an element of it? It alters the future in small or big ways

[tacit apex]

Its gonna be more BTTF then anything due to speed being the result

[sturdy token]

Yeah. I remember Ohshima used back to the future as a base for the time travel in CD

At the very least, the time travel mechanic in CD works just like the DeLorean does

[tacit apex]

We also have to deal with the idea of the bad future, Something that is the result of a change in the past, Like for example, Should Sonic save Longclaw in the past, It could cause a Bad Future, Because certain people weren't involve to prevent, Say Robotnik from taking over.

[sturdy token]

Yeah. Back to the future 1 worked with that

Marty saved his father and he nearly self erased himself of existance

[kind cedar]

and BTTF 2's 'biff timeline'

[tacit apex]

Yeah, That's very Bad Future ish

[sturdy token]

Yeah that's a more literal bad timeline

With Biff ruling over Hill Valley and making it a hell for everyone

[tacit apex]

Maybe during the last race, Sonic was running so fast, He traveled forward in time without realizing

[sturdy token]

Powerpuff girls moment

[tacit apex]

Because literally, that post credit scene is Sonic and Amy's first meeting

[sturdy token]

It doesn't seem like he time traveled forward in time and more so just arrived to New York by accident but could be wrong and he could be in the future without realizing it

[kind cedar]

if that's the case then it'd be fun if the place signs all had egg pun names

[tacit apex]

Also I wonder if that's the same race from the end of the movie, Because it was night time by the time Sonic arrived in that area from New York

It was daytime when they raced at the end

and he somehow ended up some place while its night time

[kind cedar]

orrrrr timezones maybe? not sure how it works over in murica though

Like montana and new york are on opposite ends of the US

[tacit apex]

Green Hills is in Montana, and that would be Mountain Time

NY is EST

Eastern time is about 2 hours ahead of mountain time

[indigo vapor]

seeing the username not surprised

[tacit apex]

Depending on the change in daylight savings, It could be dark at EST time, but still some daylight at MT

[ember talon]

I get the feeling if longclaw does appear we may see a smal glimpse of what happened after being seperated from sonic

please no

he should’ve moved on by now

[indigo vapor]

Agreed

[night anvil]

well uh, wrong words but

[indigo vapor]

he learned that even though she’s gone, she will always be with him in his heart?

[night anvil]

yeah

[sturdy token]

I think it can work if they pull a Meet the Robinsons

almost at the end, Willburg takes Lewis to the past, more specifically, to the day where his mother left him at the orphanage

Lewis approaches but ultimately doesn't stop that woman and returns to the future

because he accepted that he has, and will have, good things so there was no need

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFHvL6fVyzQ

Not saying they have to do this. I just say that, if they do, this route would be the most natural for movie Sonic to have

it's bittersweet that he could save his first mom but he knows that she wouldn't have liked him to alter the natural course of things even if it is for her hence he doesn't (that or that his new family made him who he is hence there is no need to alter such event. After all, as strange as it sounds, sometimes you need darkness to see the light)

Like the yuri/yaoi stuff is still cool, but never the main focus to my eyes outside of romance shows/games imho

I am just hope for Sonic 4 Movie just at least more focusing over Amy being an actual char, that's all really

Bit a pain that the first impression you get over her is being Sonic's girlfriend

Silver is still on the table for the movies

[ember talon]

Silver himself is always fine enough

[ivory loom]

i mean...

Plus doesn't help over with how Iblis is treated to so that shit is going to be completely different

[ivory loom]

Iblis is already in the movie universe

so like

Silver could exist possibly?

[tacit apex]

I be surprise if we get Silver, Before Rouge, Big, or the Chaotix.

[ivory loom]

in a very different context

[ember talon]

tbf we gotten Shadow before Amy lmao

[ivory loom]

but its not like reputation is an issue

[night anvil]

I need them to keep pushing Silver back it’d be soooo funny

[ivory loom]

i dont

i like silver :c

[ember talon]

Fair of course wint

I doubt

I am cool with Silver

But expecting him before Amy and Metal Sonic?

[night anvil]

I do too

[ember talon]

That's expecting too much

[night anvil]

What I dont like are silver fans

[tacit apex]

With Silver's connection to time travel, they aren't going to do 06, He'll be there from a different context, but still time travel being somehow involved.

[ivory loom]

actually you know what fair enough, i dont like wearing this thing because of fans so

to add onto this thread, what i think would be a fun take on amy in this universe is the fact that sonic is such a jokester with bad puns that everyone groans, but you could have amy be the only one who laughs with him.

We upgraded from "almost all" to "all"

[amber mortar]

W

The movie will end up very close to 500M

Below or above

[peak dew]

Oh yeah they’re 100% getting shadow back at some point

like, at this point its a case of when rather than if surely

the box office for 2 was enough to justify getting the knux show off the ground, can’t imagine they’d waste time here either

[amber mortar]

He's litteraly teased to be alive at the end of movie 3

He's 100% in movie 4

He might even get his own series

[peak dew]

hooooonestly I could see him skipping movie 4 in favour of headlining a spinoff tbh

(I’d prefer a movie for him but if they go for another P+ series I’d take that too)

[amber mortar]

But jane

The money

[peak dew]

Two movies
Two sets of profits

[amber mortar]

A movie is too much of a risk

[vast inlet]

With Shadow????

[peak dew]

yeah like, is the new guy from the second highest-grossing gaming movie of all time that much of a “risk” lmao

[next wedge]

If it's cheap, it shouldn't. I'm sure they could do a spin off like movie 1 but with shadow

[peak dew]

(combine that with the sales from shadow gens and it’s clear, the people crave the hedgehog)

think the main thing it hinges on is if Keanu’s got time free for it tbh

[elder bear]

if they keep good budget (they did this well with all the movies) i can see shadow movie to do well

ofc its not gonna make billions but i feel like it can make the same amount as the first one

[sweet river]

I rather have a Shadow series cause I need to see some downtime and things to settle for once

[elder bear]

i feel like they dont announce shadow movie because the looking for good director rn

[obtuse lynx]

i know this is like a late response, but sonic 3 really one of the best cg movies out there huh

[sturdy token]

Mhm. What a great production schedule and such do to a movie

they didn't rush, they had everyone working properly and healthy

it allowed the CGI to go as cool as it could be

without giving it drawbacks

Plus it also helps that it relies on clear sets wherever is possible

and only leans on CG to enhance them of a way it cannot do with physical

rather than fully going on it making the tool harder for everyone

[mossy imp]

Also helps that they aren't working on multiple projects at once

[sturdy token]

They probably are but they are 1 or 2

and not like 6 or so

That gives more time to breathe

at least based in that the Knuckles series and movie 3 were worked in similar times

(but even then Knuckles went for practical as far as it could, with only ep6 being the CG heavy episode)

[sturdy token]

MCU by comparison has 2-3 movies in a year WITH 2 or 3 series (not counting the marvel television ones such as X-Men 97 or the new Spider-man one cause they are another group so their work process is different)

[tacit apex]

https://fixupx.com/LeeMajdoub/status/1883938716315705543

[sturdy token]

Yeah I can see that

in this era of films, the sonic movies resonate with plenty of people because they're focused on nailing their themes and are focused in the movie at hand

Like yes they do set-up stuff for future movies and yara yara

but you never feel like a movie or so is done for sequel sake or for a grander direction

they are just another chapter in the life of these characters

With new obstacles and challenges but still focused with each installment

In a sense, the sonic movies are akin to 80's movies like back to the future or indiana jones

just movies focused on the character and the new problem at hand, movies that may set up for later but ultimately the focus is on the current issue

At least in my opinion

[tacit apex]

I can see the 80s and 90s formula in the movie, Especially with the references.

[sturdy token]

Yeah, yeah. Which works as a breath of fresh air compared to other current franchises who feel like in a hurry of creating the next MCU

[tacit apex]

Those era of movies were not overly complex, they were easy to follow

[sturdy token]

Yeah, they were because they didn't have a mayor plan at large

just 'hey let's see how we can make these characters deal with new situations'

[tacit apex]

The movies arent setting up the next one, They have a plot they stick through to the end, And when we get to a post credit, Its to setup who shows up in the next one, But don't reveal what the plot of the next one could be, Just the, Here's whose gonna be in the next movie, and that's pretty much it

[sturdy token]

That's pretty much it, yeah.

There is no grander direction like Thanos or anything

[tacit apex]

We can only speculate what the next one could be, Just because of the characters that will be in it

[sturdy token]

Exactly

heck it is less indulgent than back to the future

the 'post credits' of back to the future already gave you an idea of what the next installment will do

back to the future 1 - they'll go to 2015 and marty's kids are in trouble

back to the future 2 - doc brown ended in 1885 and you must save him

[tacit apex]

It took a couple of years for us to get to BTTF part 2

[sturdy token]

I mean more how the first movie of back to the future spells more of the plot of the sequel than sonic movie 1 with it's post credits.

[tacit apex]

It makes me wonder if there will be a time jump in the next one, The way it ended, Seemed like it was the conclusion of the race at the end of the movie. But that's for us to find out in the next one, Because Movie 4 will have a version of this very scene.

[sturdy token]

It seemed to be

yeah

[tacit apex]

It could be at the begining or in the middle, who knows

[sturdy token]

Who knows? Only in two years we will know

[tacit apex]

We have to play the waiting game

He is not wrong 💀

[sturdy token]

https://fxtwitter.com/SilverFan101/status/1883915773967749580

[willow forge]

If anything, Silver didn't deserve to be shown as such a bad first impression.

06....while rightfully deserving of all the venom and disgust it has garnered since its release, really should've been pushed back to a later date.

[ember talon]

Not wrong but honestly if they wanted to introduce Silver it should be barely anything to do with 06

Especially with Iblis

[willow forge]

oh yeah.

[ember talon]

I feel like for Silver when it comes to 06 related is only just time travel and that's it while being his complete own char

Which basically.... is him recently

[willow forge]

06....had a lot going against it. The fact it even made it onto shelves is a thermodynamic miracle.

-The cancellation of the Dreamcast the same year Adventure 2 launched

-Learning and adapting to several major console platforms outside of their own, in Sonic Team's case.

-Two major leads cutting ties to SEGA with half the team having to work on Secret Rings.

Sonic's 15th Anniversary

Like I said. Thermodynamic Miracle it made it out at all

[ember talon]

It's why to me when it comes to adaptations I feel like could work out well for general audience are: Heroes (not fully confirmed yet), SA1, Unleashed, and Colors

I would say Frontiers but that one is a complete different case lmao

[willow forge]

---

Silver is arguably the only saving grace of the game. With an actual reason behind his appearance here. Well saving grace or spiteful curse.

Though mercifully enough, 06 is, by it's nature, a self-contained story. A story that, for all intents and purposes, never really happened

[boreal hornet]

You can't say that when he's genuinely one of the worst aspects

[ember talon]

06 is just unfortunately an infamous sonic game and most of the time the general audience bring it up is "Elise kissing Sonic" 💀

[willow forge]

Also, let's not kid ourselves. 06 was supposed to be Adventure 3.

[boreal hornet]

He is not a saving grace when he is a rooted magnet for some of the worst bugs and moments the game has to offer

[willow forge]

Oh....now I remember.

[ember talon]

Also yeah I wouldn't say that either. Silver left a VERY bad first impression

His reputation gotten way better later on but his debut is just awful

[boreal hornet]

the sonic heroes on the table:

[ember talon]

It's why to me he isn't like Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Metal Sonic, or Shadow where they all managed to leave a good first impression

Shadow especially considering his debut

[willow forge]

Shadow was one of intrigue and mystery back then, which spiked his popularity....but a serious misunderstanding of his character arc and his backstory paved the way for a lot cringe from newcomers.

Especially when it came to OC's.....we don't talk about that.

But I digress....

[willow forge]

Looks at it: Oh yeah, I forgot you existed.

[boreal hornet]

I will never forget Heroes

https://tenor.com/view/neo-metal-sonic-metal-overlord-sonic-the-hedgehog-metal-sonic-sonic-heroes-gif-4565637431832002167

[ember talon]

pretty much leaving a huge impact after your first impression holds a lot

[willow forge]

It's been said you never get a second first impression.

Fumble at the finish line? Good luck keeping up.

Nail it from start to finish? Enjoy the fame

[ember talon]

essentially yeah

Only time that managed to do this well back to back is Metal Sonic

Metal Sonic having a very good first impression with CD, then you get with OVA and then you get Heroes despite having such low amount of appearances in main series

[amber mortar]

I mean... who would argue otherwise ?

And technically so was unleashed

not even technically, it was actually adventure 3 up until the werehog came in

[willow forge]

Everyone when I was younger kept holding onto hope it would come. But by this point, I hope many realize that it is just never gonna happen. Just never gonna exist. Especially with expectations being shot beyond the atmosphere at this point.

[ember talon]

06 is like the closest thing you can say is SA3

Heroes does exist but the team mechanic made it stand out well enough

[willow forge]

Same with unleashed. Though, I can definitely understand an argument for why. At least for the PS3 and Xbox. I had the Wii version of Unleashed.

[ember talon]

Unleashed is... a hard maybe

[sturdy token]

Hard maybe, yeah

It's a more linear story

rather than one told from different points of views

[willow forge]

Fair enough.

[ember talon]

Main thing that feels like an SA3 is not only the multiple playable chars but also the gameplay

06 is essentially what could have been SA3

Too bad 06 feels too loose compared to SA1 and SA2 at least story wise

💀

[sturdy token]

I feel 06 kinda didn't get what made sa1 particularily work

storywise

[ember talon]

Story wise I feel like it tries way too different for the wrong reason

[sturdy token]

Like at it's core, it has a similar base to that of sa1 but it fumbles them because it doesn't get that all stories of sa1 have 1 single core around them: Chaos (character)

all of them have chaos as a focal point which allows them to mesh together thematically and chronologically

while 06 is just 3 stories that are eating eachother

[willow forge]

Each one of those iterations brought up something the other never considered or wanted to implement.

CD played up the role of the Silent Copy

OVA hinted to him being more than just a robotic mockery

Heroes became a composite of these two....utilizing the look of a silent robot, but slowly proving it is more than we believed as it can use the BioData of its targets to evolve and empower itself

Let alone be able to shapeshift into the Doctor

[ember talon]

pretty much. Those 3 alone just excel what made metal popular, which silver severely lacked

Closest you can say over him is the comics and at the same time? Not much

[willow forge]

In fact, Shadow Generations Reminds us he was delusional enough to believe he was a god.

Though, with all that power and information, it's kinda hard to disagree.

[amber mortar]

And even if it happens, this fanbase (at least a significant part of it) holds way too much expectations over a potential sa3

[willow forge]

Precisely my point

[amber mortar]

GOTY material type of game while the ogs weren't even close to be that

[ember talon]

Yeah I feel like when it comes to SA3 is just going to remain a pipe dream unless they manage to reach that point

[boreal hornet]

oh yea that reminds me i gotta write down all the lines Metal Overlord had in Heroes and redub it to sound like his new voice for a fun lil experiment or maybe mod project if I knew anyone capable of that

[sturdy token]

I feel in general, Silver lacked a lot of the aura that made Shadow stand out in 06

compared to Shadow in sa2, he is played way too directly and with barely any flare

You may say 'oh it makes sense, he's a time traveler of an apocalyptic future, he would go directly' but Trunks had more aura in his introduction

[ember talon]

I don't think he needs to be like having "aura"

Silver can still be an interesting char enough without that. Just that the problem is 06 did a poor job handling him

[sturdy token]

We don't know who even Trunks is and the bozo stylzed on King Cold and Frieza

It took a while for him to reveal his intents but in the meantime

he did things that are very cool and in a way that is unique to him

[sturdy token]

it's more so that he lacked a lot of flare in 06

like think Shadow in sa2

and how theathical he is in spite of being a tragic character

[ember talon]

Yeah that I get

[sturdy token]

Silver is more played out by comparison, which is fine in a vacuum

but when you have both sonic and shadow be more stylish

then you are the one lacking

(and even literally. Shadow was so extra by kicking Silver's back using Chaos control)

[willow forge]

If anything, he really didn't need to do that.

[sturdy token]

Definetely, and that's why it is very cool

Shadow was so extra for something as mundane as that

He could do it by skill alone

but Shadow decided to add insult to injury

Silver needed more of that 'it's not practical but fuck it' type of moments

like I talked with Deleter about it

imagine this

Sonic and Elise arrive at the docks. Suddenly, the waters raise dramatically and they slice in half a la Moises; and from that division, Silver comes. The water raising and being sliced were done by Silver's psychokinesis

[ember talon]

That's Shadow for you lmao

Doesn't need to do it, but continues to steal the show

[ivory loom]

gameplay wise, yes

character wise, not really

[sturdy token]

https://fxtwitter.com/ClosingEpic/status/1883427426417717547

he would run off more often

Tom probably may say that Sonic is a bit reckless at times but that's about it

Heck he would probably invite Sonic to fish or something

even if the third act of sonic 3 was the greatest thing ive ever seen in any piece of sonic media outside of giganto maybe

[obtuse lynx]

hey

sonic movie nerds

does anyone the name of the song that plays when suepr shadow is throwing sonic into the mountains in the soundtrack? i cant find it for some reason

i really like the live and learn rendition there

[amber mortar]

Can't find it

[paper cradle]

yeah its not on the OST for some reason

a few tracks in the movie aren't on there

[amber mortar]

It should be in this song
https://youtu.be/pTyPkwgQp6M?si=G6t9VPh-7tgjRO37

Around the 2:37 min mark

[paper cradle]

i think this is the same part but this OST version has the guitars that play in the movie turned way down for some reason?

iirc the 06 eggman theme part is just straight up missing?

[amber mortar]

Mf really was like "ewww sonic music"

[obtuse lynx]

THANK YOU

ily

[obtuse lynx]

also yea i noticed

that live and learn guitar riff was so good i was hoping i could isolate it from all that sfx but its even more blurred 😭

[paper cradle]

i think if you get the actual file of the digital release of the movie you could isolate the OST from the rest of the audio channels to get that version?

[indigo vapor]

Yea that could work

[paper cradle]

maybe someone already did that idk

X · Jan 29, 2025, 12:14 PM

[sturdy token]

I can see this idea working IF they show that Longclaw was a 'barrier' between both

One of the points of the first movie is how Longclaw told Sonic that he had to remain hidden or not be seen

due to the risks of someone figuring out his powers

if they are childhood friends, they should have longclaw taking Sonic home like an overprotective mother

saying that it is too risky to be with Amy because his powers can put her in danger

Which would contrast very well with current Sonic who is more than enough confident and capable to use his powers to protect her

[kind cedar]

I like it

[analog trout]

I dunno why, but with this in mind, I can’t help but imagine a more comedic take on their reunion

Sonic wondering who Amy was and Amy getting upset he doesn’t remember his own childhood friend (no thanks to his overprotective owl mom)

Kinda like how ChiChi got angry Goku just forgot about her

[indigo vapor]

I’ve come to make an announcement, all five belows should be burned due to the fact that I tried looking for a shadow poster and they didn’t have it in stock, and when I found its color it was just a Minecraft image, therefore all five belows must be burned

[fleet shadow]

Has enough time passed to have an indeoth discussion about film shadow
I find him fascinating

[sturdy token]

Really?

[fleet shadow]

He is different than his game counter part in a way that impresses me. They could have easily taken a pretentious/jaded approach when engaging with the character but they chose a homestly pretty ernest and genuine take on the character

I think i like the games more overall. It leans more into the weird and allegories than the films do. But film shadow is pretty engaging. Film shadow...made me like idw less? Which seems unrelated but i promise you, its not

[dusky garnet]

No i agree

[sturdy token]

What do you mean pretentious/jaded?

[dusky garnet]

Idw shadow is just very unlikable

[fleet shadow]

Not just shadow, film shadow made me key in on one my larger issues with idw in general. By being...a good character

[dusky garnet]

Yea exactly

Is like Shadow in IDW and such has to always be saying NO ONE TELLS ME WHAT TO DO or IM NOT INTERESTED

I just hate seeing shadow in idw cuz hes not fun

Hes just an angry powerful guy that doesnt accept anything or like anything

And thats all there is to him

[fleet shadow]

Im a fan of shadow, ive also done art professionally. I see a lot of takes or redesigns that take the oomph out because they do not wish to engage with his edgyness in earnest.

Idw actually suffers from this in general with multiple characters. I think sometimes in a bit too deep can blind you from the basic functions of a character and it could have been litteral hot topic emo shadow rather than a hurt kid

[ember talon]

Movie Shadow honestly shows so much over why I have hard time liking shadow during post 06. IDW Shadow...... is just even worse

[fleet shadow]

That i dont agree, or rather agree fully i think you missed the actual issue

[dusky garnet]

I get why shadow is the way he is and the way sega wants him to be

But thay doesnt make him a good character

Like it feels like theu are eo insecure in making him a character

[fleet shadow]

Idw is simple because the the people writing the book in the beginning got too meta and wrote themselves in a corner.

[dusky garnet]

Like he has to always say

How much superior he is

[fleet shadow]

The movie works because it just...explains him

[dusky garnet]

How much people dont matter to him

[spice ember]

did shadow the hedgehog in the idw series of sonic the hedgehog comics really say that

[fleet shadow]

He doesnt say that often at all though is the thing.

[sturdy token]

The superior hands thing of the 900th adventure is close to that

[dusky garnet]

Yea

How was that accepted

[spice ember]

he might actually have superior hands though

[ember talon]

Only time he wasn't like that was just urban arc. Anything else before that IDW Shadow has that behavior

[fleet shadow]

This is what i mean by "meta" the idw comics suffer from getting in too deep in the series

The movies do not do that

[fleet shadow]

He isnt like that often

[sturdy token]

Huh? What does that have of meta?

That's just a dumb thing to say but meta it doesn't have anything

[fleet shadow]

He doesnt claim superiority hes just...angry and unexplained

[spice ember]

thats how I’d describe it

I’ve been slowly catching up to idw, i got done with surge’s rampage with the wisps and I haven’t read any further

[ember talon]

900th adventure was....... quite a comic

[spice ember]

from my memory shadow appeared a grand total oooooof two times or maybe three idk 😭

and he was angry and brooding and he was gone

[fleet shadow]

Ill connect back to my point. Film shadow is just a character being introduced to you and explained to you.

Shadow in idw, is a character never actually introduced they operate under the presumption you know and write him like that. They also write him like they know only to be met with rules but thats kinda a different discussion

[spice ember]

isn’t there a shadow one shot coming

[fleet shadow]

Shadow as a character needs to be explained to a degree anf he never is

But heres the thing , a lot of idw is like that!

And i dont know if thats good

[ember talon]

There is yeah

[dusky garnet]

Shadow one shot will be interesting to see post movie shadow

[sturdy token]

He's introduced in IDW with a simple element: a day in the life narrative element

[peak dew]

this feels like it'd work better if shadow looked more smug and honestly I'm wondering if he was only for editorial to put the kibosh on it

[dusky garnet]

Pfft you wish

Ideally he would be smug saying this shit

But he cant be too smug no more ig

[analog trout]

I say that's what happens when you make a comic that takes place directly after a specific game late in the series' run

[fleet shadow]

It doesnt really reflect a day in his life and his stories never really give you an understanding of what hes doing or why

Prime does, the movies do, the games do

Idw never bothers

[spice ember]

btw is this just about idw shadow or like, the game version of shadow in general

[ember talon]

IDW Shadow

[sturdy token]

It does

issue 6 is all about that

Shadow has been hunting down eggman, he believes he is dangerous and wants to take him down before something else happens

[peak dew]

also yeah, gotta say that's def something IDW struggled with early on - it's a terrible first introduction to sonic's world cos it explains jack shit lol

[fleet shadow]

For me it isnt even about idw shadow specifically i think film shadow made me rethink things and made see issues with idw in general

[peak dew]

if you're already a fan its a walk in the park but the immediate first arc is neo metal and angel island and practically none of it is ever explained

[fleet shadow]

Hold on you got something there

Follow me here

Shadow is described to be someone who hounds on something untill its done

So eggman is eggman again, why isnt he killing eggman

Hes dangerous no?

[peak dew]

def could've eased into it all better (the first 4 weekly issues helped but at the same time I think they're the only IDW issues to ever be released on schedule so 💀 )

[dusky garnet]

Game shadow is like what forces and shadow gens, not really tbh

The worst he gets is tsr i suppose

[spice ember]

I don’t think I like film shadow more than the one we already have in the games, I think both are very good at what they do

But if there’s one thing, I think the shadow we have currently could like, loosen up a bit 😭

[sturdy token]

the entire point of issue 6 is him trying to kill Eggman (and shadow 05 he kills him in a few alternative endings)

[dusky garnet]

And even then thats more so the western version

The jp version of tsr shadow is far more

[fleet shadow]

Introducing a character who's known to be about it. And set his goal up to kill the villian is setting him up for nothing

[spice ember]

which is weird because shadow was kind of a smug bitch at times in sa2 and heroes

[dusky garnet]

No nonsense

[spice ember]

idk where that went

[fleet shadow]

Those are fun what if's but his character historically isnt really hunting to kill eggman

[dusky garnet]

I also hate the new thing where sonic says shit like “u working for eggman this time???”

Like fuck off lmao

[fleet shadow]

Its terrible and makes sonic look like an ass

[dusky garnet]

Sonic has more trust in shadow than that

[ember talon]

I cannot fucking stand TSR writing at all. Doesn't help that it's after fucking Forces

[sturdy token]

https://tenor.com/view/meme-scary-movie-parody-true-gif-27456863

[fleet shadow]

Beyond trust he should know better. Thats what i meant by meta writing

Idw characters are frequently not written for themselves or the audience but to commicate the writers thoughts on the series itself

And...it sucks

It worked once, with surge and only kinda

[spice ember]

super sonic v super shadow compared to the movies is so fucking funny

[fleet shadow]

The film characters flaws in all are characters

[spice ember]

like yadayada different pipelines and workflows and whatever

but wow

[fleet shadow]

And i appreciate them for that

[sturdy token]

I don't think anything in early IDW was meta until Starline specifically, he's the only one who is hard-coded into being meta (and Surge and Kit but that's by reflect I suppose)

Other characters are just using the continuity to form new conflicts and ideas

[ember talon]

I am only hoping we get actual progress over the current game cast. Only time that is very noticeable are Chaotix, SIlver, and Amy

[sturdy token]

Not saying everything is of quality or well-done but nothing feels that pushing. It isn't like Gumball or even X

where a lot of it's plot beats and such are actually meta stuff on the Internet, memes, tendencies, etc in the case of the former, and the other pointing it's nature as a cartoon, the characters having specific traits, etc

[fleet shadow]

Ian admitted that shadows first issue was just explaining why they dont go after eggman. A thing that didnt need explaining. That to me is where the meta starts

Instead of writing a narrative that speaks to the characters or is about anything, its just maintenence as to why the audience shouldn't question why these cartoon characters dont murder a guy

This continues as well beyond just starline.

[indigo vapor]

I heard Starline, what’s going on

[fleet shadow]

Im not even saying you cant write that kind of stuff interesting, you can. But you need the chops.

[fleet shadow]

Hes cool

[sturdy token]

That isn't meta necessarily. You can have an in-world reason of why they don't go for him and that's it

Han Solo has a very dumb reason for getting his name in Solo: A star wars movie but that doesn't make it meta by any means

[indigo vapor]

valid and true

[fleet shadow]

Also i dont think he should be dead

[ember talon]

Have starline as a cyborg plz

[sturdy token]

Starline was nice

[spice ember]

https://youtu.be/ar98n5suZZY?si=P-rYvRzEbh9wOjFm i found it!

[sturdy token]

Strange

Why didn't they include it?

[spice ember]

too goated

[fleet shadow]

My claims of it being meta is more so in how it was used and why it was written not the concept of...explaining a concept. If you don't want to call it meta that's fine, but whatever you want to label it that sort of writing I think plagues the comics. I dont think it feels genuine it comes from expressing your understanding of the material in a way that is uninteresting to engage with at times and shadow in movie 3 is the opposite. Its a very different take on shadow and acts as if you never met him before all references are woven into his character so well you have to just be familiar to understand them. But they aren't needed. He's a character that stand son his own in a film that stands on its own. And I don't think chunks of idw does. And unfortunately those chunks are kinda large

But im way WAY off topic

i wanted to talk about how interestin I think film shadow is

He might litterally be the polar opposite to many aspects of what game shadow is and I find that facinating

[ember talon]

It's honestly one of the main reason why I love the movie chars. They have have their own different take while staying true to their main portrayal

[fleet shadow]

None of the other characters are like that even sonic. Shadow in the films is strait up a different character entirely

[night anvil]

I mean, the first 4 issues introduce you to Tails, Knuckles, Amy, and the new comic character, showcases their dynamics, explains that Sonic and Eggman are enemies, utilizes various game elements such as wisps/badniks to set the tone more

[fleet shadow]

I like those issues, they are good and then they just stop doing it

I would say 5 as well does this

litterally issue 6 they just stop even trying to like introduce concepts or people they just...go

[night anvil]

I mean by that logic wouldn’t 7 and 8 also count as introducing concepts/people

Neo, Silver and Whisper have pretty natural character introductions I feel

[fleet shadow]

Nah because 7 and 8 just kinda presents them. Whisper does and silver kinda but even i would make the argument that silver needed way more than kinda

but i'm not even gonna blame th ebook for that, thats forces fault

The book at a that time was a continuation of forces, he was just there then he's just there now

[sturdy token]

To me, meta is one step before of fourth wall breaking. In the context of issue 6, Sonic and Shadow simply have a disagreement on killing Mr. Tinker. Shadow, being the pragmatic he is (or aggresive), wants to terminate Mr. Tinker because Eggman is a potential threat to the world and he doesn't want to give any opportunity of Eggman returning to his usual anthics. Sonic, by his side, has seen that Mr. Tinker no longer poses a threat to anyone around him so he wishes to stop Shadow.

I won't tell you to like how they handled Shadow in there and what not, but nothing there is meta specifically

[fleet shadow]

Ah ok i see our problem

[sturdy token]

It's just in the context of what they've built with issue #5

[fleet shadow]

you are looking at meta as a concept being integrated into writing

I'm looking at it as also why a thing exists and why is it being written

The way you look at it isn't wrong, btw tbh its pretty reasonable

I just think there are cases where you have to look at why a story exists to make that decernment

[sturdy token]

Otherwise, I would consider 'meta' that Naruto tries to stop Gaara because Gaara is him if he didn't have Iruka, Kakashi, Sasuke, etc

[fleet shadow]

I think its that way different but this isn't a naruto discord so imma just say

Sasuke didnt nothing wrong

[sturdy token]

lol

I mean, I can see why he did the things he did

the Uchiha massacre is a whole can of worms

basically a Pandora Box

[fleet shadow]

Screw itachi all my homies hate itachi

[sturdy token]

Fair enough. My favorite akatsuki is Konan

then comes Hidan

[indigo vapor]

If they do i will praise Ian Flynn or Evan Stanley (depending on who writes his return) for the rest of my life
