Sonic Movie stuff because I need to get this off my chest!!
Final Battle talk!
---------------------------------------------
- Oh my God, okay. Shounen anime prepared me for Sonic falling unconscious, seemingly perished, and instantly regaining consciousness when Tom declared to all of Green Hills that Sonic was his friend.
- Sonic's power then overloaded and hit its full potential, and I thought that was cool enough at the time but I just remembered that Sonic's power is triggered by his emotions. Sonic realised he had finally made a real friend and it made his little heart swell to the point he turned to pure adrenaline and caused his power to overload. That's... So... EMOTIONAL.
- Sonic gets up and takes his power back from Robotnik. No he PHYSICALLY PULLS ELECTRICITY FROM ROBOTNIK'S MACHINE, FROM HIS STOLEN QUILL. SONIC WILLED THESE HUGE ELECTRICAL CURRENTS FROM THE MACHINE BACK TO HIM. THAT'S SO FREAKING COOL ARE YOU SERIOUS.
- Then oh my god... Oh man then he hits back. Sonic takes his mark when Robotnik takes aim and starts running, and uses the surrounding buildings as a springboard to hit the machine. The staple of all post-2000s Sonic battles in every single game has appeared and Sonic is emulating homing attacks on Robotnik. Its beautiful and so so cool!!
- Then Sonic delivers a typical one liner and Robotnik is spindash attacked through the ring and into another realm, just like how Eggman is often sent flying away in most games. It is... amazing. So cleverly crafted and I've been crying for an hour now.
Everything about it was pure Sonic and the fact that Sonic's power in the movie is electricity based instead of just speed it allowed room for cool extras like THIS, I can't stop thinking about it. It's just so on brand and so entertaining, I'm in love.
