I didn’t think I was going to like the first two but I did. Excited for the third

During Covid, Sonic 1 was the last major film release, which led it to being in the New Movie section of Redbox for like a year. Good movies.

There was a Sonic the Hedgehog 2?

[–] Moobythegoldensock@lemm.ee 14 points 9 months ago

Yes, with Idris Elba gleefully chewing the scenery as Knuckles.

Yep it had Knuckles and Tails. There was one popular meme format that came out of it that you've probably seen

Oh yeah:

Movies are fine and I'll absolutely watch the third but more than anything I hope Jim Carrey has fun with this role. I feel like I have more fun watching Jim Carrey when he's having more fun. Pretty much the sole reason the sonic movies work is because he steals every scene

Big?

No, that was a Tom Hanks movie.
