For those not in the know, Sonic Fan Film is exactly that; a live-action fan film based on the Sonic the Hedgehog series. Brought to life by film maker Eddie Lebron and his Blue Core Studio, the film hopes to replicate the success of their very well received MegaMan fan film.
My main concern regarding such a project is the volatile Sonic fan community. Being a Sonic fan myself I know how we can be very defensive about the Sonic series, at least when we're not poking fun at it, and I wouldn't be surprised if this film is ripped to shreds once released. Personally I want to be impressed by what I see, but it's hard to do so. Sonic 2006 tried to bring Sonic to a realistic setting and failed miserably, so to make a live-action film featuring a CGI Sonic makes no sense to me.
This being said, it's an ambitious project and those involved should be commended for what they have already achieved in the trailers alone as well as managing to get Jaleel White involved, the original voice actor for Sonic's American, televised adventures.
We'll see how this goes for now. But have any of you out there been following this film? Have you seen the MegaMan film? Let us know what you think in the comments below!
