Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Sonic is an 18-minute long Fan Film based on the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. It was written and directed by Eddie Lebron, and released by Blue Core Studios, the same company that released the fanmade Mega Man (Eddie Lebron) film. The film was developed to see how Sonic would look in a live action environment, and faced the high expectations of the Sonic fanbase.On the peaceful Planet Mobius, the evil Dr. Robotnik, formerly acclaimed roboticist Julian Kintobor, declares war on the world. He begins his path of destruction by wiping out all intelligent animal life on South Island. Three months later, the Robotnik Empire now occupies Station Square, often taking over the city's television networks to spread propaganda. Robotnik faces opposition from G.U.N. units, who are vastly overwhelmed by his robotic forces; however, an unknown hero dubbed the "Blue Blur" allies himself with the underdog and rescues a number of units in the fight against Robotnik. Three weeks on, Robotnik and four G.U.N. soldiers discover the identity of the freedom fighter — a surviving South Islander who's a wisecracking, laidback, blue hedgehog called Sonic that can run at supersonic speeds.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The film gained a lot of attention, particularly when it was announced that Jaleel White was reprising his role as Sonic after voicing the character in Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM) and Sonic Underground.It was originally first released at MAGFest 2013. On January 10, 2013, it was uploaded to YouTube by the filmmaker.This is not to be confused with the official film adaptation from Paramount or the OVA Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie.

comment
Darker and Edgier: Much like the Mega Man fan film before it, Sonic puts a significantly darker spin on the normally lighthearted franchise. Robotnik is a foul, sinister antagonist (going so far as to even electrocute a G.U.N. soldier prisoner and attempt to have a forest G.U.N. soldier executed in cold blood), and some elements of racial inequality have been added in as well (represented by a G.U.N. soldier despising Sonic as a South Islander). Robotnik also seems to be on a much more active head-hunt in regards to Sonic, explicitly ordering his robots to "kill it".

Mythology Gag
 Sonic (Web Video) / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: The basis of the plot is taken from Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM), with Robotnik having basically already made his conquest and facing rebels. Dr. Julian Kintobor comes from Dr. Ivo Robotnik's former name in Archie Comics, Julian Kintobor of the House of Ivo. Sonic's catch phrases like "Way past cool!" and the concept of roboticisation are taken from western media, too. The seven Chaos Emeralds emerge from a giant Gold Ring. The planet of Mobius (from Sonic the Comic, Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM), and Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie Comics)) is the main setting, along with South Island and Station Square. Robotnik's fleet consists of about half a dozen Egg Carriers. The fleet flies over Station Square in a scene directly inspired from a similar one in Sonic Adventure. The E-100 battle droids are based on E-102 Gamma. During President Bushnell's speech, the date given is futuristic, and he implies that Mobius arose from a unity of nations. This may be a reference to Archie Comics, where Mobius was depicted as a future version of Earth. Sonic mocks Robotnik by calling him "Eggman" and "Robuttnik" at one point. G.U.N. was introduced in Sonic Adventure 2. Additionally, the Commander is briefly mentioned. Buzz Bombers and Moto Bugs — The Goombas first seen in the original game — make appearances. There is a subtle Take That! to the controversial Interspecies Romance of Sonic the Hedgehog (2006). Sonic rides a missile to redirect it back at its owner, just like in Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie. Sonic comes across the Green Hill Zone at the end of the film, and is viewed from afar by Knuckles.

Take That!: A joke about the Interspecies Romance plot of Sonic the Hedgehog (2006). Sonic "flirts" with a human woman, but then says that the two are incompatible since she's a human and he's a hedgehog (though in the recording session, there was a deleted version of this scene where Sonic flirts with the brunette GUN soldier, saying "You never hooked up with a hedgehog before.''").
