Well f*ck. That means instead of being discouraged, all parties involved will wanna double down, as the crew behind those utterly horrible Sonic CG+live-action movies have been doing. I was hoping the way things would turn out for all these companies would stop them from doing this kind of nonsense again, but instead their success means we will probably see more bullsh1t in the future. Fantastic.

My 28 year old son saw the movie and said it was a lot of fun. Encouraged me to go see it.
