and/or something not originally planned for movie 3

indigo shuttle
#

Many ScreenX films are like that

#

A lot of films are shot normally

#

And all the shit is added in post

#

So this stuff isnt always planned out and just kinda slap dashed into the cinema

#

Does the film being mostly CG mean they’re gonna make use of the IMAX aspect ratio throughout the whole movie or are there still gonna be a few scenes not in IMAX

#

Considering the producer went to IMAX execs for this movie I assume they want to make use of the aspect ratio

distant lion
#

fowler might've gotten the budget for IMAX cameras?

#

not sure yet

#

yeah

Sonic the Hedgehog, joined by new hero named Amy, faces a new technological nemesis known as Metal Sonic. Directed by Jeff Fowler, starring Jim Carrey, Kristen Bell, Keanu Reeves, Ben Schwartz, James Marsden, and Idris Elba

#

Nothing we didn't know already but the first official synopsis it seems

#

so take that for what it is worth

median sequoia
#

That shit was a whole breakdown

amber mortar
#

😭

#

Omg yeah i remember

indigo shuttle
#

I do stand by tho that 4DX is a miserable way to watch a movie

#

Watched Sonic 2 in it

#

SUUUUCKS

#

Your back will hurt

dusky garnet
#

Wait really?? Why does it hurt the back?

#

Also wow i completely skipped that Craaaazy synopsis wow how unexpected lol

peak dew
#

heard nightmarish things about the batman in 4dx lol

indigo shuttle
# dusky garnet Wait really?? Why does it hurt the back?

Well 4DX involves a moving chair, water raining down on you and strobe lights.

But also it has motors where your shoulder blades are.

And it repeatedly punches your back at any action scene.

It also has air jets next to your ears so whenever Sonic starts running, hurtful blasts of air graze by your ear.

#

DBox is good tho

wicked hearth
#

I think the one thing it says it makes clear Metal is the villain

#

Robotnik is a character

ember talon
#

I prefer it that way honestly

wicked hearth
#

Yeah same

ember talon
#

I feel like they can easily move on with robotnik being more as a char than being a villain yet again

wicked hearth
#

There may be a different timeline Robotnik but if he survived the main one will not be villainous as before

#

I think more timelines and variations is the key here for the plot

ember talon
#

That's what I expect too

wicked hearth
#

I am fucking tired of Robotnik as the main villain, 2 movies is enough, the solution was either to let Jim Carrey go or do new things with the character

#

Game purists will defend that Eggman needs to be the villain in every movie

vagrant zinc
#

I dont think its about that, I think the movies are worried about not having that Jim Carrey factor to help get parents in seats

wicked hearth
#

I am just saying I am okay with Robotnik being developed or having different roles, vs people who want him as the big bad in 4 or 5 movies

indigo shuttle
#

Agreed yeye

wicked hearth
#

They are doing the best thing by keeping Jim Carrey

#

We do want these movies to be a success

vagrant zinc
#

We could use a movie structured more like a 2000s game, having Eggman take backseat to a bigger bad. Though technically movie 3 did do this, it just didnt feel like it cause Jim Carrey played both characters vecort

agile dragon
#

I hope they don’t mess up Metal though

dusky garnet
#

And as like people who wanna See the movie the whole interactive experience stuff might be too much for the senses lmao

ember talon
#

This movie they need to capitalize metal hard honestly

wicked hearth

#

Lmfaooooooooo oh whats that thing in the front of your torture chair, oh yea the movie

indigo shuttle
#

yup

#

DBox is much better

#

The chair just kinda sways

#

Its calming

#

And you can set the levels so you can lower the intensity at any time during the movie

dusky garnet
#

Oh thats quite nice

indigo shuttle
#

Yup

median sequoia
#

I will say that I’m surprised that they didn’t throw eggman into the synopsis.

#

like they could’ve thrown in an ‘eggman’s newest creation’ label in regards to metal sonic, but nah,

#

just straight up metal.

indigo shuttle
#

its krang and this is all setup for a crossover with the new live action ninja turtles

dusky garnet
#

Thats a matter of when for a tmnt crossover

#

But yea i am hoping eggman is not the main villain, i kinda want metal sonic to do stuff by himself

median sequoia
#

I gotta see how movie eggman would feel being betrayed by one of his creations

#

I just gotta.

About as much weight as air

#

TO BE FAIR the screening was like 4 bucks

#

So i tried it

#

And it's so weird

#

Like dgmw

#

It was fun

#

Certainly a one time thing tho

sturdy token
#

I hate 4dx bup

amber mortar
#

That one sequence with the pursuit under the rain

#

Holy shit

indigo shuttle
#

lets hate it together

#

daps up

indigo shuttle
#

i hate getting wet

amber mortar
#

I kept it on cuz i was like "might as well"

#
  • as i said, it was a one time thing
indigo shuttle
#

Yeah

#

I have a very specific criteria for deciding how i watch a movie

#

"Is it filmed for IMAX?" > Go for IMAX
"If not, does it have a ScreenX release?" > ScreenX is second choice
"If not, does it have a Premium Large Format release?" > PFL for third
"Is the movie animated or not? And are 3D shows early in the day?" > Determines if I should see it in 3D
"If none of the above, is it in DBox?" > DBox for Fourth
If none of the above, regular screen. NO 4DX.

amber mortar
#

Most "imax" theaters are kinda not is the problem, for example (iirc) there's only one or two theaters where there is an actual imax screen in france

#

And yet i'm sure dozens are adervtised as imax

indigo shuttle
#

Liemaxes suck

#

I have a really good one downtown

#

A full 70mm

#

So i get the real deal

amber mortar
#

Mine is like

#

Idk how far lmao

indigo shuttle
#

Awww

#

Well if you go see like

#

The Odyssey

#

Might be worth the trip lol

indigo shuttle
#

Looking at this dvd video i posted in lobby, man the sonic movies couldve used some fun gimmick box sets

#

That would be cute

#

Master Emerald box for all three films, idk

what if we kissed in the sonic 4 licensing expo lobby

sweet river
#

I’d kms

indigo shuttle
#

would it be any better if i said we'd be in table 8

wicked hearth
#

or in the movie....

indigo shuttle
#

to quote soni

#

I’d kms

#

jk

wicked hearth
#

oh okay

#

I would yell kitemmuort

indigo shuttle
#

think movie 4 will be at the TGAs

delicate galleon
#

First actual trailer will probably drop around late October - early November

Clip / another teaser might be slated for TGAs

indigo shuttle
#

Checks out

delicate galleon
#

I don’t know why, but I hope the TGA clip has a line that mocks them for snubbing Sonic 3

indigo shuttle
#

Lol

indigo shuttle
#

Come to think of it

#

Has the sonic movies ever done 3d

#

Would it be beneficial

#

4dx wasnt 3d for sonic 2

#

I think it's really possible for them to drop a trailer at TGA

#

it's 4 months before... Sonic 3 released its trailer 4 months before

#

but this time it looks much bigger, I'm not sure they will opt to release the trailer as later as possible

ember talon
#

I am getting this feeling we may get a back to back with frontiers 2 and sonic 4 movie during TGA

long fractal
#

some part of me believes they want to start the marketing cycle much earlier than the previous movies

#

combined with the fact that this movie has an even larger scale budget and shorter filming times than the previous 3 movies

distant lion
#

they'll be forced to start early

indigo shuttle
#

Imax forces early marketing?

fallen harness
#

Well there we go

#

No S2

indigo shuttle
#

thank god

ember talon
#

Bit sad to hear, but it’s fair it wanting to use different chars

slow maple
#

More importantly

#

WTF is his right leg doing

aww no more michael bolton

next wedge
#

I don't think they ever thought of a second season

indigo shuttle
#

Yeah

next wedge
#

Season one was fine but I don't see why it would need a second one

indigo shuttle
#

The show iirc was marketed as a limited series

#

Which is just streaming service talk for glorified movies split into episodes to maintain your subscription

next wedge
#

They might just do shows for multiple characters instead

sweet river
#

More pump and dump and less trying to make a long running series

#

It’s better this way

#

The sooner I can stop watching the better

who's the one on the right

median sequoia

Al Levine

#

Consistent editor on all the sonic films thus far

fallen harness
#

Oh lol

median sequoia
#

Can you believe the title reveal was 2 months ago

#

Felt shorter

drifting mason
#

Can't wait to see the first trailer/teaser tbh

#

lmfao

fallen harness
#

Colleen is officially recording the movie!

indigo shuttle
#

Ooooo

night anvil
#

They’re being very open about this

median sequoia
#

I was gonna say enhance on that paper but that shit is def unreadable

#

Also, a spider-man in the back’

cloud mist
#

I just questioned that

median sequoia
#

deadass feels like we’re getting a date by date basis with the process;

indigo shuttle
#

Plus its just cheap marketing

median sequoia
#

That to

#

Def gonna keep it in circulation for the public & fans.

indigo shuttle
#

Yup

median sequoia
#

can we get a daredevil born again level slip up and idris takes a selfie with some concept art in his booth.

#

I’m saying that like that’d be worse than having a leaked storyboard of your final act.

indigo shuttle
#

Lmao

long fractal
#

Can we get that but with Neo Metal Sonic’s VA

honest rover
#

hey guys i am gonna be voicing neo metal sonic in sonic 4

distant lion
#

they never did it with movie 3

next wedge
#

finally

fallen harness
agile dragon
#

I feel like they’re saying a lot more about this movie than 3?

indigo shuttle
#

Everything but plot

median sequoia
#

with the way things are going, that trailer might very well drop in september rather than my october or november guess

#

if the mjority of this film is animated, far more than the last 3, I think it’s not impossible for it to hit the internet sooner rather than closer to release.

ember talon
#

I think it alone shows how confident they really are with sonic movie from now on

fallen harness
median sequoia
#

oh yeah we’re in that realm for merch for the film to start popping up

fallen harness
#

Ya know been thinking about it today and… how did Johnny from Crush 40 not get in trouble with breaking NDA about Live and Learn in Sonic 3

#

Like he kept saying it was in the film before the film even released

Sometime next year?

eternal tapir

Right now

median sequoia
wicked hearth
#

wait

#

Ben Kingsley is voice cast or live action?

#

or both?

vast inlet
#

That kind of implies he's a live-action role

#

and that article maybe was misinfo

wicked hearth
#

do all actors have personal make up artists?

vast inlet
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

wicked hearth
#

it implies he has a... particular live action role to me
