Sonic definitely looks better, but the movie will likely still be trash.

Some of the "humor" may still be cringey, but Sonic's design is a massive improvement.

Jim Sterling's new video on this was really good. IMO. I had a legit sustained laugh at a specific part.

Sonic looks better, but they still need to edit Jim Carrey out.

I love how everyone complained about Sonics design but Eggman who looks nothing like his original design got a pass. It's definitely hypocritical. Some of the greatest art designers have believed for years that character design should never dictate the overall reception of the character. As an artist myself, I couldn't agree more. Then, grown adults had the audacity to complain like infants. I sincerely hope this movie fails and hard. As long as everyone is happy that Sonic looks "like Sonic." As if no one could possibly see it at first.

They made jim carry look as much like egg man as they possibly could without making him look retarded. The human version of him looks great..... nothing more realistically could have been expexpected. .

So the entire black suited...mediocre black handle bar mustached...full head of of hair, thin bodied Jim Carrey was all they could possibly do? I couldn't care less but that's a very weak argument. No, he doesn't look like Eggman any less than the original Sonic design looks like Sonic. If both images were released individually before the trailer debuted, and people had to guess which characters they were based on one picture, the vast majority would recognize the original Sonic and practically no one would guess Carrey as Eggman. And even after all that it's beside the point. The movie doesn't "automatically get better," or worse for that matter. It's still gonna flop and it deserves to.
