  • Was it something I said?
In this week's edition of "Hollywood bullshit nobody wants:"  60's Hanna Barbera children's variety show The Banana Splits is being rebooted into a Five Nights at Freddy's ripoff slasher flick.

Archer season 10 :
Wait, that was the season finale (and series finale) ? Again ? Are they really trying to leave it with an open end like that and say nothing ?
(It still is the series finale this time, right ? They didn't renew it again, yes ?)

Edit - well there really is a season 11 coming apparently. Okay, this is so confusing. I've no idea what they're doing.
If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.

Fair's fair, this does look loads better than the previous trailer.  Not sure if the movie itself looks any better, but at least now Sonic's design doesn't immediately spark revulsion.

Yeah, that's a lot better, but I'm still horrified at what Jim Carrey is doing and I don't know why he's doing it.
edit - I thought this deserved some extra emphasize : this is actual real nice CG work, both Sonic himself and the lightning ball stuff he does (and the personality from the voice acting is spot on too). It's really surprising how they turned that around.

By the gods, you look at the two designs side by side and it's night and day.  Really makes you wonder why in the hell they signed off on the first one when they were perfectly capable of doing it right.

So wait, I don't recall if this was a thing established in the previous trailer, but if they're doing the whole "He's from Mobius and he's reality hopping to our world, video game comes to life" plotline, then why is Dr. Robotnik in it as a real person, unfamiliar with Sonic?  Eggman's kinda what set off the whole freedom fighter thing with Sonic and friends, so it would be weird that him going to the real world for some R&R from fighting Robotnik is also where he first meets sorta-him?

It's going to be its own thing, I know, and I plan to take it as such, just....confusing.

Yeah, apparently Robotnik is from this Earth. Sonic does mention that there are people on his world trying to take his powers or whatever, but that's probably some other villains that will never be mentioned again. That's just how they're going with it, whatever. The first trailer ended with Jim Carrey getting a case of explosion baldness and apparently finding his way to Sonic's world, so it looks like Sonic brought the menace to his world this time.
By the gods, you look at the two designs side by side and it's night and day.
That shot is where you see the most relevant differences (every single facial feature, the hands...) but the comparison between the two versions' close-ups of his face is the stuff of nightmares. V1 was the reason people always immediately assume that video game movies are garbage - because the people making them aren't actually making a thing that remotely looks like the game, they're trying to appeal to the people who played the game, but then they also say "it's not realistic enough, we need to also appeal to people who never heard of the video game" and they end up appealing to neither target. V2 actually looks like a very watchable video game movie.

I still don't have anything more than a "lazy sunday afternoon with nothing else on" interest in the movie, but at least Sonic is toyetic

That whole trailer is just...boring.Do you want to see a movie that exists solely to be damage control for one of its own trailers? because that's the vibe I get from it.

I might have seen a movie with that God-forsaken, uncanny valley Soynic if only because of morbid curiosity. Without that abomination on screen at all times this is doomed to be another mediocre and forgettable videogame adaptation.

I'm as much of a cynic as the next guy but yeah, if you think Paramount blew millions of dollars and a potential shoe licensing deal to reveal that their movie was actually just an inoffensive and generic kids movie I've got a bridge in Brooklyn for sale if you're interested

New trailer for the new animated Spongebob movie

I think I'll just watch this movie instead of Sonic. His design may be fixed but the rest of the movie may as well be either boring or just outright crap for all we know.
