Stritix Posted December 7, 2013 Report Share Posted December 7, 2013 As reported by Anime News Network, several domains have been registered that should look particularly interesting to Sonic fans: sonicthehedgehog-movie.com, sonicthehedgehog-movie.net, and sonicthehedgehogmovie.net. There is currently nothing at the sites, but check out the Whois info – it looks like this could be the real deal, because “SPD Domain Names Inc.” is the official domain registrar of Sony Pictures. With nothing else to go on, here, let the endless speculation and tentative excitement commence! I’m personally excited, because Genndy Tartakovsky is part of Sony Pictures Animation. If he directs an animated Sonic movie, it would be amazing! Well, I can dream, can’t I? http://sonicunited.org/2013/12/07/possible-sonic-movie-from-sony-pictures-domain-names-registered/ Credit to Mercury for the article. Could we possibly be seeing a new Sonic movie next year? I hope so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MykonosFan Posted December 7, 2013 Report Share Posted December 7, 2013 Maybe this is that Marza Animation project that Yuji Naka mentioned on Facebook ages ago? Sony could just be distributing that here in the States. This could also be a Sonic Boom tie-in...which I can't judge or think about since we really don't know anything about the cartoon either. Hmm.

Abominal Taz Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 Oh wow.First Sonic Boom, now this? That came as a damn near surprise. Taking all bets, people, taking all bets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnOrdinarySonicFan Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 I'm betting 10 Internet Points that There will be a Sonic the Hedgehog movie, but it will be bad. There won't be a a Sonic the Hedgehog movie, and it's just a troll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo_Fire_Sonic Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 don't you remember what happened with that sonic adventure 3 website? this is obviously the same exact thing. -.- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 don't you remember what happened with that sonic adventure 3 website? this is obviously the same exact thing. -.- That is a good point. I have a feeling this is fake, but that doesn't mean it isn't possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clouder Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 don't you remember what happened with that sonic adventure 3 website? this is obviously the same exact thing. -.- But those domains weren't registered by Sega, were they?

Light The Hedgehog Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Sony's official registery huh? This one sounds pretty legit. Can wait actually! Hopefully its good. More speculation later. Posted on mobile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OverbounD Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 But those domains weren't registered by Sega, were they? If Sega licensed Sonic to Sony to make a movie it's more likely that Sony would register the domains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogilvie Posted December 19, 2013 Report Share Posted December 19, 2013 Sony is making (with partners, anyway) a Ratchet film, a Heavenly Sword film, and a Last of Us Film based on all sources. It isn't too farfetched that they would want to dominate the video game film niche, especially with the success of Wreck-It Ralph showing you CAN have video game themes and not be terrible. They also could simply just be in talks and the domains are registered just in case. Sony gets involved in all sorts of franchises, we must remember; consider how they have a lot of hold over Spiderman despite that technically being Marvel's. They HAVE done this before. My prediction is any film will most likely be based off Sonic Boom, and probably be released in late 2015, by which point Sonic Boom will have completed its run, and the movie could also ride Ratchet's coattails.

SonicWind Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/sonic-hedgehog-movie-works-at-710867 The official Facebook and Twitter accounts of the Sonic series shared/retweeted this news. It's real. And it's live action/CGI. Let the end times begin. Edited June 10, 2014 by SonicWind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abominal Taz Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 It's real. And it's live action/CGI. Let the end times begin. Oh my God...Did they not see the 18 min. "experiment" currently on youtube? The CGI/Live action formula does not go over well with almost any video game franchise, let alone Sonic. This would work so much better and take less heat from fanbases if it was done the way Sonic Boom is being done now. Edit: Or Night of the Werehog, I keep forgetting about that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSF Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 Live action + CGI AHAHAHAHAHAHAH GOD They should just scrap it and make a COLDSTEEL THE HEDGEHEG film. http://vocaroo.com/i/s0jxVSFZn0zd COMING THIS SUMMER! seriously give that recording a listen 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos-Fusion Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 The studio is teaming with Japan-based production company Marza Animation Planet, a division of the Sega Sammy Group, to make a hybrid computer-animated/live-action feature. A hybrid...of cgi and...live...action... live...action.... Sonic in live action A full CGI like night of the werehog would have been a MUCH better choice. The animation for that was fantastic but for this, well, just going to have to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There won't be a a Sonic the Hedgehog movie, and it's just a troll. Guys, remember when I said this? Considering that the Top People are choosing the movie to be like the Smurfs (CGI + Live-action), I'm leaning VERY CLOSELY towards 1. I'm betting 10 Internet Points that There will be a Sonic the Hedgehog movie, but it will be bad. There won't be a a Sonic the Hedgehog movie, and it's just a troll.

StarbucksHipsterSonic Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 Really curious about this, has the potential to be hilariously bad but I don't care either way, Sonic at the cinema? I'll take it haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rawr Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 They have me with Marza doing animation.They lose me with Live Action.Strange that's how I feel in general with the series lately - one good thing I find is usually offset with something super crappy. Of course seeing as I have nothing to go on besides those two things right now I can't know for sure if it is going to be shit or not yet sooooo...I'll be keeping an eye on this.

Serephim Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 action/CGI. You know what? That's just pure laziness. There's no way the developers of this movie can believe it's going to be well received. There just can't be. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo_Fire_Sonic Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 i'll say this once. fake. no sanic moveh sega could come to my door and say "we're making a gay sonic movie" and i would still not believe them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clouder Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 Oh yeah, these are the same people who are taking Hanna Barbera classics and putting them in a blender with CGI+Live Action. DON'T TRUST THEM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Light The Hedgehog Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 Welp, RIP Sonic Movie hopes. What could have at least made Sonic a little more respectable will now leave him in more smoldering flames the Shadow the- Sonic 200- you get the point. Of course, this could be good? If they try really hard? But Live action + Anything seems kinda bad... besides Space Jam. I wanna give this a chance but this is a long shot. Heck Dragon Ball Z features human's / people who look like humans, how hard was it to give them a proper costume? I just- my hopes won't be getting very high with this, sorry.
