Sonic The Hedgehog Movie Version Might Have Been Revealed In Leaked Images

Ever since the first poster for the upcoming Sonic The Hedgehog movie was released back in December, there has been much speculation about what the iconic character will look like on the big screen. While everyone knows how the video game version appears, the posters so far suggest that Sonic will have a more humanoid appearance than we are used to. Now images of what could be the full movie Sonic have leaked.

The images were reportedly posted by advertising agency Hamagami/Carroll, and appear to be part of a branding guide for the movie. The pictures show Sonic in various action-packed poses, and while his legs are a little less muscular than the early pictures suggested, there are a couple of noticeable changes to his appearance.

Sonic’s iconic white gloves have now become furry hands, and his sneakers aren’t the red-and-white-striped design we’re used to seeing him in. The images have now been removed from the agency site, and there has been no comment from Paramount about whether they are legit or not. Nevertheless, they still exist in other places–check out the image below, and the rest over at Polygon.

Sonic the Hedgehog releases on November 8. It’s set to star Westworld’s James Marsden, with comedian Ben Schwartz as the voice of Sonic and Jim Carrey as the evil Dr. Robotnik. It’s directed by Jeff Fowler, who is making his feature debut, but won an Oscar in 2005 for his animated short Gopher Broke. It’s produced by Deadpool director Tim Miller.

2016 marked the 25th anniversary of the Sonic franchise. The latest instalments in the series were Sonic Mania and Sonic Forces, both of which were released in 2017. A new Sonic racing game, Team Sonic Racing, is due out this year.

Why IDW Is Rebooting the Transformers Franchise

The Transformers comic book universe as you know it is gone. Last year’s Transformers: Unicron didn’t just bring an end to a 13-year saga of Transformers comics at IDW Publishing, it also marked the end of the entire Hasbro Comic Book Universe. But that doesn’t mean IDW is finished with this license.

Instead, the company is using 2019 to reboot Transformers and start fresh. Their newest series, simply titled Transformers, reboots continuity from square one and travels back all the way to the beginning of the rivalry between Optimus Prime and Megatron.

We had an opportunity to interview both IDW Editor-in-Chief John Barber and Hasbro’s VP of Global Publishing Michael Kelly to learn more about the new series and why starting from scratch was the right move for this long-running franchise. They also shed light on a brand new character that is a franchise-first and some unexpected ways in which the new series is exploring the humanity behind the Robots in Disguise.

The Weirdest Disney Movie Sequels You Probably Forgot Existed

No one wished upon a star for these Disney sequels.

There’s a dark period in Disney animated history, near the end of Michael Eisner’s tenure as Chairman and CEO and after the company had run out of animated classics to release on VHS, that the studio began to cannibalize itself by making direct-to-video sequels to its films.

The first movie to take this approach was The Return of Jafar, a sequel to Aladdin. And it was financially successful enough that Disney did the same to their other contemporary movies. We got The Lion King II: Simba’s Pride, starring Simba’s daughter Kiara. We got The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea, starring Ariel’s daughter Melody. And eventually, Disney started going even back further into the archives. They made Cinderella II: Dreams Come True. They made Bambi II, and they were even in the process of making a Pinocchio II before upper management put a stop to it.

John Lasseter (formerly of Pixar) became the chief creative officer of Disney Animation in 2006, and he saw the sequels as detrimental to the company’s brand. And Steve Jobs, who founded Pixar and at one point was Disney’s biggest shareholder, said in a 2003 conference call, “We feel sick about Disney doing sequels. If you look at the quality of their sequels…it’s pretty embarrassing.”

Today, we’re looking at these oddities in Disney’s animated canon. To clarify: Movies like The Little Mermaid II and Mulan II are not that weird; it makes perfect sense that Disney would attempt them. The movies on this list are more in the “WTF” category; they’re bizarre for even existing in the first place.

Here are the 7 weirdest Disney animated sequels. And if you liked this gallery, check out the weirdest live-action Disney movies too.

10 Best Legendary Pokemon

The world of Pokemon features a class of Pokemon so rare and powerful they’re in a category all their own called Legendary Pokemon. Dozens have debuted over the many generations of the franchise, but IGN’s biggest Pokemon fans got in a room and battled it out to decide which were the best of the best.

Now, this is not a list of Legendary Pokemon ranked by power alone, although being a strong battler in the game and how they made a mark on the competitive scene was a key factor in our criteria. We also analyzed each Pokemon based on how well they were designed — how cool they look and how their appearance reflects their powers and personality. And we took into account the Pokemon’s lore and how it affects the greater world of Pokemon. We vetted these Pokemon not only based on their appearances in the core games but various spin-offs, the Trading Card Game, and the anime and movies to decide the best Legendaries overall.

Game of Thrones Trailer Confirms 3 Missing Characters’ Fates

The fates of three MIA Game of Thrones characters were confirmed in the new trailer for Season 8.

This article contains spoilers only of what was released in the new trailer for Season 8, but those who want to enter the final season with no knowledge of what’s ahead should read on at their own risk.

After Tormund Giantsbane, Beric Dondarrion and Edd Tollett were left missing in action when the Night King and his ice dragon attacked Eastwatch-by-the-Sea at the end of Game of Thrones: Season 7, fans were left speculating whether the three characters survived to make it into Season 8. Fortunately the trailer for the final season answered the question pretty decisively.

Deal Alert: PlayStation Classic Is Back On Sale for $39.99

If you buy something through this post, IGN may get a share of the sale. For more, read our Terms of Use.

The PlayStation Classic started dropping in price not long after it came out. The mini console hit the market with a $99 price tag, and didn’t exactly fly off store shelves. Its $99 list price soon gave way to a $59 semi-permanent sale price, and once again, Walmart is clearing them out at $39.99.

The initial PS Classic announcement was met with a lot of excitement, but that excitement began to fade as more details on the PlayStation mini console began to trickle out. Sony held off releasing the full list of games, which seemed suspect in the eyes of many. But the 20 included games run the gamut from must-have classics to sort-of-overlooked to “why would I want to play that?”

Nintendo Switch’s Daemon X Machina Demo Is Leaving The Eshop This Week

Nintendo Switch’s upcoming mech action game, Dameon X Machina, received a free demo last month following February’s big Nintendo Direct presentation, but you won’t be able to download it for much longer. Nintendo has confirmed the demo is leaving the Eshop on March 10.

The Protoype Missions demo, as it’s dubbed, gives players a chance to test out the game’s controls and mech customization options. It features four separate missions followed by a boss battle. Afterward, select players will receive a survey to provide their feedback directly to the development team.

If you’ve yet to, you can grab the Daemon X Machina: Prototype Missions demo either from the Switch Eshop or Nintendo’s website. The full game is still slated to release this summer and is directed by Kenichiro Tsukuda, who previously worked on the Armored Core series.

In Daemon X Machina, players pilot high-powered mech suits called Arsenals, which can be outfitted with a variety of different weapons. Players will need to use their Arsenals to take on missions and defend humanity against armies of rouge AI-controlled robots. Nintendo says the game will also support local and online multiplayer.

Daemon X Machina wasn’t the only Switch game to receive a free demo following last month’s Nintendo Direct; a demo of Yoshi’s Crafted World is also available to download from the Eshop. The full game is scheduled to launch on March 29.
