The writer of that IGN article is completely unenthusiastic about the teaser footage and barely restraining their attitude for the sake of politeness, but apparently "Nah it all sounds fine".

Lol. Well, I would say their opinions aren't wrong. I think they're interpreting the descriptions of the footage and not necessarily the tone of the writer. But I definitely don't agree with them.

This sounds like every other "bring this cartoon character to the real world" movie. Which is not ideal when we know how those have turned out in the past. The descriptions didn't give me a flattering impression. At the same time, I'm looking forward to it for all the wrong reasons. Feel kinda bad about it because I do like some Sonic stuff. But it is what it is.

We might as well change the title of the topic from “Make it so” to “Oh Dear God the Humanity”

Is this really what Paramount thinks kids, let alone Sonic fans, want to see?

Eggman actually looks okay. Wonder if this is gonna be like the Deadpool films, where the first one tried to be psudo-realistic while the sequel embraced the unrealistic side.

Well, if that's legit, definitely looks nothing like Eggman. Not that I ever expected him to in the least.

Looks like a live action Robotnik to me.

His original image is fairly exaggerated to get an exact translation for live action. Could have made his moustache wider maybe.

I've heard they're definitely going with the name Robotnik as well instead of Eggman.

At first I didn’t like it, but after absorbing the design more, I can honestly see a great deal of charm in a modern portrayal of Eggman/Robotnik. I’m also pretty interested to see how Jim Carrey’s wacky antics will translate into Robotnik’s supposed,“transformation”, later in the movie.

For a live action Sonic movie, I personally didn’t need for Eggman to literally be an egg-shaped human being. This here looks like a real person whilst still adhering to many of the philosophies of the character, as far as the design goes. He works well enough for me, and it’ll ultimately come down what kind of personality Carrey brings to this Robotnik.

Sonic looks good when going fast and curled up in a ball, but then they showed his facial movements and the creepily realistic teeth...

Welp, we’re neck deep in this gargantuan load, might as well strap in and see where it takes us. At least the teaser poster looks sweet.

One minor complaint that I have (out of the myriad of problems that this movie looks to have), is that Sonic's speed has always been associated with the wind. He's a free spirit, goes wherever the road takes him and is smooth and fluid. The electricity isn't even inherently bad, but I just thought I'd point that out.

My guess is that they're just trying to copy The Flash
