How Ugly Sonic Almost Cursed The Movie

Before we even made it to a third Sonic The Hedgehog movie, the character had a bit of a struggle getting off his feet when the first trailer for the movie was released. Receiving a tsunami of negative buzz from fans, the original design the character received was heavily criticized by fans all over the world.

Even Chip and Dale would make fun of Ugly Sonic in their own movie.

At least paramount brought back the ugly sonic 5 years later

Imagine how tails and knuckles and shadow would look like 😭🙏

[RomanSalazar-zr]

I remember seeing the trailer, and he looked very weird. I was questioning what type of research they were doing

[PhoenixForce]

Sonic has been a nice little surprise as a franchise ngl

[doodletheexpoodle]

The first design looks like he was fired from Sega and had to move in with his grandma or something but tries really hard to convince everyone he's still a cool guy but he can't finish a marathon because he lacks the true confidence

[sonicfangirl]

It was not a publicity stunt. you can find premade ugly Sonic merch and Mc Donald toys that would have been ready to release when the film was out.

[HlelolwenkosiMthethwa]

Imagined how the other characters would look if the kept this Sonic 💀

[HawkOfLight]

No. They had a stupid amount of faith in the original design. They spent a shit load of money to fix it as well.

Why is bro like a thousands years late to this topic?? 😭😭

[SonicGeneral]

What did we learn? Bullying a production team can help change a movie

[trevorsawyer]

There is not a single soul who didn’t know this

[Ssssssssonic]

The redesign is so perfect man hes way too cute i want him as a life sized plushie now 😢

[trapbubbles]

"hey you remember ugly sonic? yeaa? well thats the video

[numatruehome]

Dude they had merch, tshirts, toys, posters, the works, this was a desperate hail marry

[brdiebi]

A company that actually listened to the fans is actually a miracle, and I love it.

[Skibidiohio]

Bro… y dose he look like he is pulling off gojo’s infinity?

[FrightF]

I have my doubts Sonic was ever going to appear like that, it was just a viral stimulant.

[alexisnicole]

I didn't know about ugly sonic until the chip n dale rescue rangers movie came out and I couldn't even look at him

[rometherevenant]

Bros acting like nobody was there to see this

[SmoodGraphics]

I wonder how the world would be if we never got to sonic movie and it got canceled but I’m glad it didn’t get canceled and got fixed
