Shadow was created by Gerald Robotnic, because Maria had a rare decease. So he took some DNA from himself, a hedgehog and a chaos monster if I'm correct. Ivo and Maria are cousins. I don't think they ever talked about their parents anywhere.
I really wish there could be a animated serie where they just do all kind of origins story, where Sonic starts out as the brown hedgehog, turns blue when he reaches new speeds, Robotnic comes to their planet to steel the powers of all the anthropomorphic friends of Sonic, Sonic saves the day, meets Tails who gets bullied and become friends, Robotnic returns, Sonic and Tails learn about the chaos emeralds, Super Sonic defeats Robotnic, Robotnic studies the chaos emeralds and finds out about the master emerald, Robotnic recruits Knuckles, Knuckles finds out Robotnic is bad, they defeat him again, Sonic meets all kind of new friends like Amy, Espio, Vector, Big the Cat, Cream and Charmy, Robotnic made Metal-Sonic, they somehow go to the real world, they find out that for some reason there is another Hedgehog named Shadow who also joins the team eventually with Rouge doing her part in the story, Silver and Blaze show up, chaos monsters and I probably forgetting a lot of stuff.

Metal Sonic and Amy were introduced together in the same game, Sonic CD.
Granted, Amy back then was vastly different from the way she is now, and Metal Sonic's best stories are from other sources...
If I had to guess, they're going to pull best hits for inspiration and do something different with them rather than pulling from a specific storyline like this movie did for Sonic Adventure 2 Battle.

Sonic games you guys could react to is sonic 06 ( really terrible effects, but has the best story and villain from the franchise also introduces Silver) or Sonic heroes you could react to for Metal Sonic (also more shadow lore), and the Sonic Adventure fandubs by Snapcube which are absolutely hilarious I think it even got referenced in the movie( when sonic called shadow "Hot Topic".). I personally do not recommend reacting to Shadow the Hedgehog game, it gets really redundant at some point, but if you want shadow lore you could.

“Yes, Keanu! You are a National Treasure.” - Sonic in Sonic 2 watching Speed.Not much I can say that hasn’t already been said. When first watch this I was SO scared Sonic 3 was gonna have too much cringy kid humor like “Konichi-whaaaat” and the Detective Pikachu joke in the trailer. First, no kid that knows what a Pikachu is thinks it’s a fox. Second, the only difference between regular Pikachu and specifically Detective Pikachu is the hat, and Tails isn’t wearing one. I’d prefer if the joke only brought up Tails looking like a Pokémon without a forced pop culture reference (they made up for it with the Green Lantern one).HOWEVER, I was so happy we didn’t waste time on a B-Plot consisting entirely of characters no one cares about this time. They changed enough to make it a coherent movie, but not so much it was unfaithful to the source material. Live and Learn exists. It’s everything I wanted!

Something I really like is them incorporating the lore of eggman's family not giving a fuck about him because if maria's death. In one of the recent games he says something along the lines of "i never knew my cousin maria. All that love for someone who was gone when i was right there!" These movies have fun with the small details like sonic being the one who started calling him eggman but He embraced it and turned it into something iconic.

I never thought I would get so invested into the relationship between Robotnik and Stone. Ever since the first movie, I absolutely love that Stone isn't just one of these "adorably stupid and inept underling who's not really into it" trope that we see so much. He's competent, devoted and has a special attachment to Robotnik that really build his character above that of a simple comedy relief.
This movie definitely had more corny jokes than the first 2, but it didn't have a negative impact on the rest of the story. Definitely an enjoyable experience, and seeing Jim Carrey just having fun being as goofy as he wants and bringing life to Robotnik in a better way than anyone else could have is pure delight.
And that ending scene... THAT is how you build up hype for the next movie. Now the only character left that people would want to see is Rouge, and unless they're already planning to make a 5th movie, I think there's a good chance she might also appear in Sonic 4.

With how they want to make a full sonic cinematic universe? It would be so easy to introduce characters. Hell they can use silver or blaze alone as antagonists if they don't wanna use eggman for a while, the chaotix could be tricky since they're supposed to work as detectives.

Definitely gonna get Rouge in the next movie, either as an actual starring role or a cameo/mention. My gut says, though, Metal, Amy and Rouge (plus they gotta have Shadow again) are gonna be the 3 new feature characters for the next movie, with the stinger very probably being Silver in some capacity.

Okay. I've taken down a lot of notes because I wanna talk about as much as I can without leaving a ton of comments. So I will go in order by what notes I took during the movie.●Yes, prison Island is a place in the sonic games. It's the island where sonic was sent to jail and the island Eggman, rouge, and shadow destroy in SA2
●The movie takes some liberties with shadow, but his power is derived from the Black Alien DNA and the chaos emeralds energy in game. In the movie they have him naturally have this power, but the meteorite he crashed to earth in does look like the black comet
● In Shadows Early concept he looked exactly like sonic but with black fur, even when changing his design they kept up the act that everyone in SA2 confused shadow for sonic, here in the movie they have that one line lf dialog even though they don't actually look alike at all
● i found it funny that Walter's probably died from the explosions despite nobody else, even the people on stage, being harmed
●Rockwell was weird, probably just an excuse to keep GUN as the villains for both sonic and shadow, she even disappears at the end of the movie.
● Jim carrey got his wish, he got to be fat eggman
● Maria and shadows relationship is the most important part of shadows story. In the games she was in the space colony while shadow was created, she gave him his name while gerald was trying to use shadows DNA to cure her disease. She always wanted to visit earth with shadow but of course in the movie they're already on earth.
● The old movie we see shadow and Maria watch features the Biolizard, this was the prototype version of shadow that gerald created before gaining the Black Doom DNA.
● Yes, knuckles does have a canonical fear of ghosts in the games and comics
● Gerald in the movie is wildly different from the Gerald in the games. In the games he is a kind and dedicated scientist who only wanted to cure maria by whatever means, even having to deal with GUN and Black Doom. When Maria was killed he snapped. He erased part of shadows memory and instilled a desire to destroy the earth. He was then killed by firing squad as a prison death sentence.
● in the games, the eclipse cannon was just a small part of the ARK that gerald had built as a precaution to destroy alien threats to earth, of course in the game SA2 eggman wants to use the cannon to destroy part of the earth and build his eggman empire, shadow never tells him that the cannon will destroy all of earth
●Gerald robotnik had 2 sons in the sonic canon, Maria and Ivo/Eggman are cousins, however, Eggman is under 50 years old as he was not born until after Maria and gerald had been killed in game. We do not see the other family members.
● Jim carrey said he would come back out of retirement for a script written in gold ink. That dance scene was gold.
● not important, but eggmans ring tone was the E.G.G.M.A.N. theme from SA2
●of course they couldn't actually show a 12 year old girl getting shot and killed, but at least they actually had the guys to kill a child on screen
● Gerald's statement "you're no Maria" is heartbreaking even for someone evil like eggman. And it's tough to believe that this entire movie Gerald was acting goofy and ridiculous to keep Ivo on his side
Shadow is far stronger than every other character in sonics world apart from sonic himself and even then sonic only has a speed advantage. Shadow is constantly wearing limiter rings on his wrists to make himself weaker and keep his power from destroying himself and others. In the games his DNA is linked to the chaos emeralds which allows him his powers to teleport, shoot lightning spears, control time, and more. These powers are made stronger if he has even one emerald, but of course in the movie they don't talk about the chaos emeralds.
● Live and learn. That is all
● They were so confident in this movie that they announced sonic 4 was being made before the movie even hit theaters. And Jim carrey already confirmed he is willing to come back for the 4th. Now they just have to explain how he survived a literal nuke
● Metal sonic and Amy were both introduced in the same game, Sonic CD, so of course a movie with both of them makes sense. Metal sonic looks 1 for 1 exactly like his game counterpart except that there's now more than 1 of him. This leaves the question of who built him? Is GUN gonna built them in the movie universe or is Eggman? For Amy I really hope they treat her right, in the first half of the games she was a young teen girl with a massive crush for sonic that she's willing to let the world die if sonic lived. In later games she still has those feelings but she's matured and more casual about it, and of course they gave her more personality than crazed stalker. Just please don't let her be voiced by awkwafina or some other horrible actress
● Yeah shadow lives, but I doubt the movies will give him amnesia like the games did

I really, really hope yall see this but a couple things, Maria and Ivo are cousins.
Shadow is a little older than sonic (people headcanon sonic to be 15/16 so Shadow is 16-18) he's been frozen for 50 years so he never grew up.
Metal sonic doesn't talk since its Eggman that made him. It's supposed to reflect what Eggman wants out of sonic whenever he talks about controlling him. Taking away his ability to talk and quip back. BUT I've also seen people say they want metal sonic to talk so he'd be similar to prime metal sonic.
People are really hoping for sonic to have a crush on Amy rather than usual. I don't really ship them but I'd love to see Sonic have like a cute little puppy crush and trip over himself for Amy while Amy be this cool cute girl boss.

It was way too soon for Silver, would have been a Jump The Shark moment for sure.
But I feel he'll be in one of the stingers after the next movie, since it looks like (and has been teased by the director) that the next trilogy is really gonna ramp up and expand the Sonic universe for the movies. So we're prolly not gonna have to wait long for Rouge, Silver, Blaze, Ream Chaotix, and hell I wouldn't be surprised to see them utilized underrated characters like Fang and the Babylon Rogues, too.

But I would love for you guys to check out fanmade stuff like Nazo Unleashed(It's so peak), dubs of the IDW Comics for Sonic(Which are canon to the game universe), or finally check out a sonic timeline or things on the lore of the world and the possibilties they could do for this franchise.
Here's to see Metal and Amy in Sonic 4 in March of 27, I'm so hyped for it cause Metal is my favorite character.

You were confused when Shadow removed his bracelets so there is a very important detail that you should know. Those rings are limiter/inhibitor rings designed to restrain Shadow's powers because he is so powerful he could injure or kill himself without them.
Shadow punched the chaos emeralds out of Super Sonic whilst restrained in his base form. Shadow is HIM.

Amy and Metal Sonic originally debuted in Sonic CD. Great Sonic game that isn't well known since it was on the ill fated Sega Saturn. And it had time travel in it, which gives a hint on how Eggman can return in the next film. My guess is Amy is going to be a time traveler, coming from a time line where Eggman won.

Metal Sonic and Amy both debut in Sonic CD, one of the classic games that was being worked on alongside Sonic the Hedgehog 2. That game's whole plot AND gameplay revolved around time travel. In the game's story, a mysterious planet with strange time travel anomolies called Little Planet suddenly appears and gets chained down to Earth(?) by Dr Robotnik. Sonic, of course, intends to stop Eggman but gets followed by fangirl Amy Rose. Eggman debuts a robot that to this day in Sonic lore, is one of his most powerful, and is so far the only one to truly rival Sonic himself. That robot being Metal Sonic. Metal Sonic kidnaps Amy and now Sonic has to rescue both the planet, and Amy. In gameplay there are FOUR variations of each zone. Present, Past, Bad Future, and Good Future. You pass a sign post, similar to a checkpoint, that says Past or Future, then maintain a high speed to travel to the past or future of a level. If you travel to the future straight away, it will always be a Bad Future, ravaged by Dr Robotnik. To get a good future, you have to travel to the past to destroy Metal Sonic holograms and other Robotnik machines you have to find in the level. Then after traveling to the present, then to the future again, you will end up in the good future of that zone. An alternative way to obtain the good future, is by collecting all of the Time Stones (Sonic CD's equivalent of the Chaos Emeralds) in each of the special stages. Very very good game though it isn't quite as beloved as Sonic 2 is. Sonic 2 had a much greater emphasis on speed in its level design after Sonic 1 felt a bit too sluggish. Sonic CD opts to instead make very large and open levels that can be easy to get lost in. The levels are essentially just, "What if Sonic 1 levels were larger and had more room for exploration?".
Definitely recommend checking it out. It being an older Sonic game it doesn't have too much of a story. But the lore of Little Planet is really neat and it's a bit of a shame it hasn't been brought up again in future games. The ongoing theory for the fourth Sonic movie, is that we're going to end up with a time travel story with the events of the movie being loosely based on Sonic CD, just as Sonic movie 3 was based on Sonic Adventure 2.

Kinda bummed we didnt get Big The Cat, Cream, or Rouge but I suppose their setting up for Team Caotix in the future probably. So we'll probably see the rest of the cast appear in Sonic 4 Id imagine.
With how they want to make a full sonic cinematic universe? It would be so easy to introduce characters. Hell they can use silver or blaze alone as antagonists if they don't wanna use eggman for a while, the chaotix could be tricky since they're supposed to work as detectives.
Definitely gonna get Rouge in the next movie, either as an actual starring role or a cameo/mention. My gut says, though, Metal, Amy and Rouge (plus they gotta have Shadow again) are gonna be the 3 new feature characters for the next movie, with the stinger very probably being Silver in some capacity.
Gotta tackle the whole cartoon franchise at this point. In order all the way through!
The best of the trilogy!
Okay. I've taken down a lot of notes because I wanna talk about as much as I can without leaving a ton of comments. So I will go in order by what notes I took during the movie.●Yes, prison Island is a place in the sonic games. It's the island where sonic was sent to jail and the island Eggman, rouge, and shadow destroy in SA2
●The movie takes some liberties with shadow, but his power is derived from the Black Alien DNA and the chaos emeralds energy in game. In the movie they have him naturally have this power, but the meteorite he crashed to earth in does look like the black comet
● In Shadows Early concept he looked exactly like sonic but with black fur, even when changing his design they kept up the act that everyone in SA2 confused shadow for sonic, here in the movie they have that one line lf dialog even though they don't actually look alike at all
● i found it funny that Walter's probably died from the explosions despite nobody else, even the people on stage, being harmed
●Rockwell was weird, probably just an excuse to keep GUN as the villains for both sonic and shadow, she even disappears at the end of the movie.
● Jim carrey got his wish, he got to be fat eggman
● Maria and shadows relationship is the most important part of shadows story. In the games she was in the space colony while shadow was created, she gave him his name while gerald was trying to use shadows DNA to cure her disease. She always wanted to visit earth with shadow but of course in the movie they're already on earth.
● The old movie we see shadow and Maria watch features the Biolizard, this was the prototype version of shadow that gerald created before gaining the Black Doom DNA.
● Yes, knuckles does have a canonical fear of ghosts in the games and comics
● Gerald in the movie is wildly different from the Gerald in the games. In the games he is a kind and dedicated scientist who only wanted to cure maria by whatever means, even having to deal with GUN and Black Doom. When Maria was killed he snapped. He erased part of shadows memory and instilled a desire to destroy the earth. He was then killed by firing squad as a prison death sentence.
● in the games, the eclipse cannon was just a small part of the ARK that gerald had built as a precaution to destroy alien threats to earth, of course in the game SA2 eggman wants to use the cannon to destroy part of the earth and build his eggman empire, shadow never tells him that the cannon will destroy all of earth
●Gerald robotnik had 2 sons in the sonic canon, Maria and Ivo/Eggman are cousins, however, Eggman is under 50 years old as he was not born until after Maria and gerald had been killed in game. We do not see the other family members.
● Jim carrey said he would come back out of retirement for a script written in gold ink. That dance scene was gold.
● not important, but eggmans ring tone was the E.G.G.M.A.N. theme from SA2
●of course they couldn't actually show a 12 year old girl getting shot and killed, but at least they actually had the guys to kill a child on screen
● Gerald's statement "you're no Maria" is heartbreaking even for someone evil like eggman. And it's tough to believe that this entire movie Gerald was acting goofy and ridiculous to keep Ivo on his side
Shadow is far stronger than every other character in sonics world apart from sonic himself and even then sonic only has a speed advantage. Shadow is constantly wearing limiter rings on his wrists to make himself weaker and keep his power from destroying himself and others. In the games his DNA is linked to the chaos emeralds which allows him his powers to teleport, shoot lightning spears, control time, and more. These powers are made stronger if he has even one emerald, but of course in the movie they don't talk about the chaos emeralds.
● Live and learn. That is all
● They were so confident in this movie that they announced sonic 4 was being made before the movie even hit theaters. And Jim carrey already confirmed he is willing to come back for the 4th. Now they just have to explain how he survived a literal nuke
● Metal sonic and Amy were both introduced in the same game, Sonic CD, so of course a movie with both of them makes sense. Metal sonic looks 1 for 1 exactly like his game counterpart except that there's now more than 1 of him. This leaves the question of who built him? Is GUN gonna built them in the movie universe or is Eggman? For Amy I really hope they treat her right, in the first half of the games she was a young teen girl with a massive crush for sonic that she's willing to let the world die if sonic lived. In later games she still has those feelings but she's matured and more casual about it, and of course they gave her more personality than crazed stalker. Just please don't let her be voiced by awkwafina or some other horrible actress
● Yeah shadow lives, but I doubt the movies will give him amnesia like the games did
"she's willing to let the world die if sonic lived" my guy what, amy was never a "crazed stalker" , why do so many people exaggerate Amy so much, shes super simple to understand 😭, Amy is a bubbly, passionate person, who who admires sonic for being a free spirit , and a helpful person, she loves to be part of the adventure
I'm sorry was this a reference to RWBY? Anyone? 1:46:00
I really, really hope yall see this but a couple things, Maria and Ivo are cousins.
Shadow is a little older than sonic (people headcanon sonic to be 15/16 so Shadow is 16-18) he's been frozen for 50 years so he never grew up.
Metal sonic doesn't talk since its Eggman that made him. It's supposed to reflect what Eggman wants out of sonic whenever he talks about controlling him. Taking away his ability to talk and quip back. BUT I've also seen people say they want metal sonic to talk so he'd be similar to prime metal sonic.
People are really hoping for sonic to have a crush on Amy rather than usual. I don't really ship them but I'd love to see Sonic have like a cute little puppy crush and trip over himself for Amy while Amy be this cool cute girl boss.
Anyways, love the reaction
Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers (the movie) would be a great follow up to this.
sonic 95 ova reaction? that has metal sonic
I need silver to show up now. Shadow and silver are my favorite
Play Sonic Frontiers please! I would love to see your reaction!
PLEASE watch the cutscenes for "Sonic Heroes" and "Sonic The Hedgehog(2006)"
you should know going in that in the story for Sonic Heroes they kinda flanderised Amy for the sake of plot
I'm so glad Sean said "Futbol is life" when Christo Fernandez showed up on screen. My friend and I were cracking up when he showed up on screen in the theater
Maria is eggman's cousin
We probably shouldn't expect them to remember stuff they saw in the past.
Personally I was hoping for silver for the end credits but I ok with amy
It was way too soon for Silver, would have been a Jump The Shark moment for sure.
But I feel he'll be in one of the stingers after the next movie, since it looks like (and has been teased by the director) that the next trilogy is really gonna ramp up and expand the Sonic universe for the movies. So we're prolly not gonna have to wait long for Rouge, Silver, Blaze, Ream Chaotix, and hell I wouldn't be surprised to see them utilized underrated characters like Fang and the Babylon Rogues, too.
Watch Sonic Heroes Videothat has Metal Sonic and watch Metal Sonic Theories
you Guys should react to Sonic Droid Home and Sonic The Hedgehog 2 Comic Dubthe comics is Tie-in to Sonic Movie 2
and Sonic Droid Home is not a Tie-In
also watch Sonic Christmas Video too
If you want more Shadow Content you could always watch the fan film "Project Shadow". If you want to see more about Metal Sonic watch "Sonic The Hedgehog: The Movie(1996)"
I love that this game early, I was so excited to see you guys react to this once I watched it. For more peak metal sonic I would recommend the Sonic Ova, it's all about him(but no amy). Amy doesn't exactly have much stuff on her own outside of the adventure games and frontiers where she's prominent. But I would love for you guys to check out fanmade stuff like Nazo Unleashed(It's so peak), dubs of the IDW Comics for Sonic(Which are canon to the game universe), or finally check out a sonic timeline or things on the lore of the world and the possibilties they could do for this franchise.
Here's to see Metal and Amy in Sonic 4 in March of 27, I'm so hyped for it cause Metal is my favorite character.
Stone sees robotnik as a dad to be honest
omgggggg the ending is insaneeeeeeeee
shadow truly loves latinas
This kind of cool it being released a day early so what are we doing tomorrow I'm so excited for you guys to see this when I was in theater seeing this my soul jumped out of my body in excitement.
i havent even watched it yet and i'm so excited billy's to watch with u guys and i know everybody has been waiting for this , lets gooooo
I loved this movie, and much of Sonic Adventures 2 was in it. That end credit with Metal Sonic and Amy was so good, because they both appear in Sonic CD. One of my favorite games.
You were confused when Shadow removed his bracelets so there is a very important detail that you should know. Those rings are limiter/inhibitor rings designed to restrain Shadow's powers because he is so powerful he could injure or kill himself without them.
Shadow punched the chaos emeralds out of Super Sonic whilst restrained in his base form. Shadow is HIM.
For people who loved the Chao Garden, check out the Poglings. It's a game in development by Chadtronic from Normal Boots and it's based on the raising of the Chao creatures.
You guys HAVE to do Sonic Boom now
If youre gonna look at any other game id say Sonic Heroes, Metal is a big part of that game.
there are deleted scenes explaining how Eggman survived the 2nd movie, and why he said "my final livestream" and some that just shouldnt have been cut
I really hope they watch Sonic X one day
Yes and no. I tried to rewatch it last year and it's kinda hard to get back into. But maybe it'll be easier to watch it with the guys
I would totally recommend watching the Sonic OVA movie! There's a remastered version of it free on YouTube. It shows some of Metal Sonic's lore so you can learn a little more about his character for when the next movie comes out. I love the reactions, keep up the awesome work!!
second this!!
third
Amy and Metal Sonic originally debuted in Sonic CD. Great Sonic game that isn't well known since it was on the ill fated Sega Saturn. And it had time travel in it, which gives a hint on how Eggman can return in the next film. My guess is Amy is going to be a time traveler, coming from a time line where Eggman won.
Sonic Cd is very well known wdym? Sonic CD wasn't on the Sega Saturn you're confusing it for another sonic game
I absolutely love that they included the Chao Garden reference in this. I wish we could see real Chaos but I'm glad they brought it in at all. You guys should check out how the Chao Garden looks in the games its so cute!
Chaoes not Chaos like Chaos emerals lol
Metal Sonic and Amy are from the future in Sonic CD if I remember correctly. Also the bracelets on shadow are power limiters. So he took them off to be strong enough to push the ship.
I live for when they all go OOOOOOOH at the same time
I didn't realize how much of a sonic nerd i am until my friends pointed out how much I was raving and spitting out lore after we came out the theatre. I havent played a game since generations but all through childhood I played them all and watched all the shows available on tv. I went nuts seeing amy...although my major critique is sonic needs to stfu, they try way too hard to make him funny but tbf this is also appealing to kids so my non-kid ass needs to shut up...and keanu needs voice acting lessons, zero emoting in his voice
Also knuckles has a bunch of halloween levels and fights ghosts in the games....so many goldmine level references in this movie
Congrats, you have witnessed peak fiction
This movie is so fun. Cant wait for more.
Metal Sonic and Amy both debut in Sonic CD, one of the classic games that was being worked on alongside Sonic the Hedgehog 2. That game's whole plot AND gameplay revolved around time travel. In the game's story, a mysterious planet with strange time travel anomolies called Little Planet suddenly appears and gets chained down to Earth(?) by Dr Robotnik. Sonic, of course, intends to stop Eggman but gets followed by fangirl Amy Rose. Eggman debuts a robot that to this day in Sonic lore, is one of his most powerful, and is so far the only one to truly rival Sonic himself. That robot being Metal Sonic. Metal Sonic kidnaps Amy and now Sonic has to rescue both the planet, and Amy. In gameplay there are FOUR variations of each zone. Present, Past, Bad Future, and Good Future. You pass a sign post, similar to a checkpoint, that says Past or Future, then maintain a high speed to travel to the past or future of a level. If you travel to the future straight away, it will always be a Bad Future, ravaged by Dr Robotnik. To get a good future, you have to travel to the past to destroy Metal Sonic holograms and other Robotnik machines you have to find in the level. Then after traveling to the present, then to the future again, you will end up in the good future of that zone. An alternative way to obtain the good future, is by collecting all of the Time Stones (Sonic CD's equivalent of the Chaos Emeralds) in each of the special stages. Very very good game though it isn't quite as beloved as Sonic 2 is. Sonic 2 had a much greater emphasis on speed in its level design after Sonic 1 felt a bit too sluggish. Sonic CD opts to instead make very large and open levels that can be easy to get lost in. The levels are essentially just, "What if Sonic 1 levels were larger and had more room for exploration?".
Definitely recommend checking it out. It being an older Sonic game it doesn't have too much of a story. But the lore of Little Planet is really neat and it's a bit of a shame it hasn't been brought up again in future games. The ongoing theory for the fourth Sonic movie, is that we're going to end up with a time travel story with the events of the movie being loosely based on Sonic CD, just as Sonic movie 3 was based on Sonic Adventure 2.
I’m was blown away by the 3rd Act Fuck Peck Cinema!!! It’s like watching a Dragonball Fight.
Or Mark vs Omni-Man and angstrom levy, MAWS Clark Vs Kara, and of coarse Superman vs Zod.
And of course, Neo vs Smith
Except it's actually good
let's go!!!!!!!
Get your special sock out, Billys and Sega Nerds.This one’s gonna cooooooooook!
