To recap,Sonic the Hedgehogis a 25-minute live-action short that uses CGI for the robots as well as Sonic. Most notably, Sonic is being voiced by Jaleel White, recapping his role from the three 90s cartoons. I only wish they hadn’t tried to render every individual hair on his body. Everything else looks delicious, though, right down to the amazing Robotnik casting.

The film was meant to release this past summer, but Blue Core is using the extra months for further polish. I know other guys weren’t too hot on theMega Manmovie, but I really enjoyed it and look forward toSonic. I honestly can’t wait to hear Jaleel spout groan-inducing one-liners again.
