The thing is, a giant, upright, talking blue hedgehog isn't realistic. It would have to be cartoonish anyhow. Right now it just "realistically" looks like some underpaid guy dressing up in a bad costume at an amusement park.
That's what's so awesome about it.

Am I the only one who is kind of looking forward to this film, because of how bad it looks?
It almost looks like a parody of itself! I mean just look at Sonic! Surely most of the team working on the movie saw how bad that looked, yet continued working on it anyway. Either the team realizes this is going to be terrible, and are rolling with it, or the stars have aligned in such a way that bad corporate decisions are making the best bad movie in existence!
It's like Sega saw the old Mario movie, and thought "Hey! We could make ours even less relevant to the game!"

And casting Jim Carrey as (let's face it) Jim Carrey, just adds to that self-parodying look it has going for it.

I hope they keep the terrible looking Sonic! I'm glad they brought in Jim Carrey and made him look nothing like Robotnik (or Eggman if you prefer).
I want this film to be up there with The Room, as a legendary bad film, that people put on to watch on April fools day or something.
If they try to fix anything now, they're just going to make it bland, boring, and forgettable. Like every single video game movie out there. At least this way, they have a chance to make something memorable.
No, you are definitely not!  I love it!  I hope it turns out to be gloriously bad as well.  That's the best way that it can be good.

I find the more realistic looking Sonic to be a good take on the character.

The fan versions are just the cartoonish version with realistic rendering.  I don't think that works.  The cartoonish proportions are good for a cartoon, but look weird in a realistic setting.  Redesigning the character a bit is a good move in my opinion.  Not doing so would be like having this Mario in a Mario movie:

It may be better than Captain Lou Albano, but I'd prefer Bob Hoskins.  Or, even better, this:

I love Jim Carrey, and do not find him to be a douche.  I find him to be someone who just doesn't care what other people think and is enjoying his life in his own way.

I really wish they didn't decide to change the look of Sonic.  It would have been more fun the way it was.

It looks like it will be a dumb popcorn movie, but it could be fun, and I think Jim Carrey will do a great job.

I've seen a lot of complaints about the darkness.  I didn't have that issue.  It looked great, and the darkness was fitting for the story.  Then again, I watched it in complete darkness in the middle of the night.  The previous episode I watched in the daytime and it reminded me that I need to get more blackout curtains.

Great episode, though.  One of my favorites of the entire series.

I recently completed Kathy Rain and it was a fantastic experience.  My fiancé loved following along and helping out.  I really hope that this game will allow us a similar experience, and as far as I can tell from the trailer, it will.

Very excited.  Best of luck!

The Cell was pretty weird.

What Dreams May Come was trippy, but it's so sad.
