Re: It's Official: The Sonic The Hedgehog Movie Is Getting A Sequel

Alpha-2002

Hope it's a weird-as-hell, fun-as-hell, multi-planet road trip which doubles as a hunt for the Chaos Emeralds by Sonic & Tails. (Knux too, of course.) A big-budget, Sega-blue-sky-perfect representation of the whole of the Mobius Galaxy, from Green Hill... Planet (?) to the mighty Death Egg. Badniks, echindas, blue spheres... you name it, I want it there.

First one, as good as it was, still felt kinda... safe. Almost like the execs were holding it back on purpose. This time around I hope Paramount gives them a stupid amount of cash and lets Fowler and Co. do whatever they like - as if anyone's earned the right to do so, it's them. Best cast scenario, it builds upon and outclasses the first one in a way not seen since Aliens way back when. Worst case scenario, it'll be the most entertaining train wreck in years. There's no way it winds up in between - and, either way, I'm there day 1.

The foundations are established. The audience is pumped. So Paramount, I have one simple request: Go. All. Out.

(And keep Collen Villard as Tails. Tom Holland need not apply.)

Re: Tech Journalist Teases "Revolutionary" Scoop In Next Week's Famitsu, Possibly Concerning Sega

Alpha-2002

Probably one of their bigger upcoming projects. If it ain't that... um... Microsoft finally sealed the deal, I guess? They're the only tech mega-corp that knows what to do in gaming - and, crucially, the only one who knows how strong proper revivals can be for their brand.

If the latter's true, I hope they keep Sega multi-platform like they did with Minecraft - but I don't think they will because, well, they have a box to sell. Still, a Sonic developed with MS money sounds tempting - and, if they make it good, then the Blue Blur might finally be saved.
