Another Sonic Movie Render Has Leaked

Here we go again.

You may have noticed another image of Sonic in the upcoming movie floating around, supposedly our first look at him “in motion”. We have done some research to learn more, and it seems that a Paramount employee has allegedly verified the authenticity of this third render of Sonic on sites such as Instagram. The name of the Paramount employee is being withheld for now, but you can see the image for yourself down below.

This Paramount employee does not seem to be the leaker, just a verifier, and their verification posts seem to have since been deleted, with only screenshots available. As for the image’s source, they say it was “all over during promotional events”. There has been speculation that it came from the Kids Choice Awards, which is happening one week after SEGA’s Sonic SXSW panel. Others are saying that it is related to a Brazilian promotional teaser, which would fit with what the Paramount employee said. The most plausible one we’ve seen so far is that it comes from a preview teaser video from CCXP, which took place in December. It apparently lines up with a description of the footage, saying that Sonic is “on a highway, then running off screen”. We’ll have more information, if it comes.

I don’t know… For some reason I don’t think it looks terrible

I mean, not Sonic but… something mediocre at worst?

Lol. Sure. Fuck it. It is what it is. I can’t wait for this movie! (Not sarcasm)

So we’re going with the “Fan Movie Sonic but horribly mangled” design.

God Damn it.

Of course at this stage, I wouldn’t be surprised if we see something completely different to everything else at SXSW, because if how inconsistently this one critical aspect of this movie has been shown.

Kill it with fire. Please. Someone failed art school who created this. I can’t even begin to say how awful this is. I’ve seen 3D fan renders from mere teenagers that are better than this. Whoever created this should be ashamed and get counseling. To whoever approved of this, death by a thousand paper cuts for you.

After his masterfully detective pikachu transitioned the cartoony designs of pokemon to the real world while still making them look like their original counterparts this looks downright embarrassing.

I can’t understand the logic of going through a redesign process just to end with something as awful as this. It’s so dumb it feels on purpose.

Eddie Lebron’s Sonic model actually looked way better although the fur was eerily similar to the official one. I wonder if his fan film is what inspired the actual film?
