I hope illumination takes notes

"Stone, you were more than a sycophant to me. You were... a syco-friend."

”somehow dr robotnik returned”

"So imagine this scene from Sonic 3... But it's between Bowser & Bowser Jr."

dr eggman villan arc was so peak in sonic 3

The starting frame reminds me of Sonic adventure intro.

People hating on Mario Movie 1 in 2025.

Who said anything about hating

This whole part was beautiful I swear

The things I’ve heard of what the Mario movie 2 will be and it being better than the first with it’s story I very much have hope

Agent Stone on my feed

I love Sonic 3. And I think the greatest charm is found in the end of the movie, it just great!

Illumination: "Emotional depth, character development? What's that?"

None of these are the best video game adaptation.

Yeah, the one thing illumination needs to do is just put a lot more meat on the bone when it comes to the plot, because the movie was paper thin like paper mario, sure, the movie made a billion dollars but like you're not gonna see people talk about the movie's story years later

STOBOTNIK MENTION 🗣🥚❤️🪨

They did the right thing... For a reason.🫡🫡🫡(I didn't know Robotnik said "It's been a real drag" tho.😐)

For what?

For... Basically everything this movie succeeds at

@daggerbark97 Let’s slow down, it took them three movies to finally go all in with their source material music. Sure Mario also suffers this, but they at least have them be more frequent and apparent than just a small note or two

@JoshuaTookes @daggerbark97 Bro music doesn’t make up the entire movie both Sonic 2 and 3 is way better in almost every aspect than the Mario movie

@Cosmicstars345 @JoshuaTookes Disagree. The Mario movie way better then all three Sonic movies.

@AnimeKid_247 @Cosmicstars345 Let's all just agree that they're both better than

@AnimeKid_247 @Cosmicstars345 No :3

Illumination :

Sonic 3, despite its faults, is a perfect movie

No way! Do this, Disney Bike Riding looks good then Skateboarding on sports!

They cooked so hard it got me into Sonic

if the mario galaxy movie even attempts to be half as emotional as the sonic 3, i'll be satisfied, but i'm not sure if illumination can pull it off

This was genuinely the best scene out of all 3 sonic movies imo

I love those three so much

FUCK this scene is good

I really hope that Nintendo is still on their asses making sure they don’t try to put generic schlock in the next one. I mean, did you hear what they tried to add to the first one?!

Maybe they can learn in 2 movies what took Sonic 3 movies to realize STOP. HITTING. FAST. FORWARD. ON. THE. BACKSTORIES. AND. CHARACTER. MOTIVATION.

Agreed

Not gonna lie; this scene got me teary-eyed!

Unfortunately I think Mario movies are just gonna be more “fun focused” so the only real advantage it has is being a superior adaptation

I'm sure they will. We'll see.
