Spoiler:

I'm sorry, I think I threw up in my mouth a little.

Nothing in that description sounds short of dreadful.

And just like that, I know exactly which side of the Deadpool team split were completely, 100%, unquestionably in the right.

No, not Tim Miller

My only thought when I saw this:

**General Annoyance**

Oh boy...

This can only go badly

Pick anything else. Like anything. Get talking to Insomniac and make another Ratchet and Clank movie that isn't just cutscenes ripped from the game. Sonic may have been alright 10 years ago, before it was butchered and made into a cringe fest. It sure as hell won't work as a good film premise now.

It could have been worse.

It could have been Mario Brother's II!

Miller has prove himself to be so insane, the Merc with the Mouth has refused him. Just all the 'no'.

Just even thinking about that as a premise makes me need some fresh air

i want to be horrified of this sonic concept, but also kind of want to see a movie using the really dark aspects of the old sonic cartoon, where all the robots were forcibly converted, borg style almost

If, and only if, they use that concept- Sonic leads a group of underground fighters trying to reverse the roboticization of the other animals, I'd be interested. None of the other 6 or 7 cartoons were remotely good.

Last time we got Sonic with real looking humans was Sonic '06.
Y'know, the one where he kisses a human girl at the end. And a thousand furries where instantly born
Can we please stop feeding the Sonic fandom? Let it die a semi-dignified death please.

Is GPO for it is literally the only live action human was Robotnik, probably paired by Ian McNeice. Marine give him a human assistant too - I see to remember a crazy evil Igor-like Mad Scientist guy that helped Robotnik out.

It also probably shouldn't be overly aimed at 30something nostalgic adults but now family focused.
