  1. The sonic film franchise already hit the roof after the over hyped third entry, meanwhile that garbage minecraft movie already kicked sonic at the box office.

    1. Someone’s mad their bing bing woke-hoo got beat by a chicken jockey.
      Of course Minecraft was going to sell gangbusters, you’re just mad it meant the quality vs quantity argument means little in terms of sales.

      1. what the FUCK does “bing bing woke hoo” even mean? Seriously, when we talk about the “woke mind virus” it’s you mother fuckers using it every two seconds to describe ANYTHING, literally fucking A N Y T H I N G not inside you’re weird little conservative hell hole, but I can’t even parse what the hell you’re talking about, because it could be anything from a woman having a leading role to a black guy showing up for two seconds to deliver a line. Are we racist or sexist today buddy, just SAY IT because I can’t keep up anymore.

        1. Have never played a 3d sonic but I thought I heard good things about this shadow X game, just not good performance on Switch so I haven’t played yet.

  2. Then rehire Shiro Maekawa! Fire Flynn and Webber. Bring back Sonic Riders, the 4Kids voice cast, remake Adventure 1 and 2, make Adventure 3, buy Platinum or hire them to make Shadow 2 and a Silver game, and hire CyberConnect2 to make Sonic Battle 2.
