stop being so goddamn cute /s
#Finally watched the second movie. The filmmakers did a really excellent job again.#I've hammered out and deleted several walls of text here and I'm going to try (and fail apparently) to be actually brief this time#the films really do the characters justice#and they benefit SO MUCH from allowing themselves to be an AU like the cartoons like the comics like the original games and like Sonic Boom#I love how they aged down Sonic so as to actually play out his backstory onscreen - he is very believably like 10 or 12#and the obligatory kid stuff in the film - the memes and references- largely came out of the characters believably being That Age#(and Robotnik being immature. I really like how they went the way of the cartoons/games split and made film!Robotnik his own thing#he's not having to live up to literal cartoons so he can kind of be his own brand of malicious and that was absolutely the right move)#The human characters have a tangible role in the story on multiple levels#and I think the family situation helps to differentiate this continuity from the others#Sonic Tails and Knuckles' relationships feel organic as they develop in the condensed runtime of the movie#The beats from the games and the cartoons and comics are either plot-relevant or worked in to where they don't seem out of place#also. SHADOWSHADOWSHADOWSHADOWSHADOW okay Sonic is such a delight in the films (and in general)#But Shadow is MY BOY okay? I'm probably going to see 3 pretty soon#depending on where it is between the normal theater and the late discount theater by now#Sonic#Sonic the Hedgehog#Miles Tails Prower#Sonic (Film)
