With April 8th rapidly approaching, Paramount has released their "Final Trailer" for Sonic 2, featuring loads of previously unseen footage, a super-powered Jim Carrey, and lots of Sonic vs. Knuckles action.
The trailer links the previously shown scenes of Tom at the wedding in Hawaii, and Sonic snowboarding during an avalanche and robot attack. It's also the first major interaction we've seen between the speedy and headstrong Sonic and the serious and... astoundingly physically strong Knuckles. Tails still has minimal appearance, no dialog, and spends most of the trailer unconscious, so we don't yet have a sense of how the movie portrays his dynamic with Sonic. There's also slightly more pop culture references that will assuredly not age well, and a simple and direct game reference early on that will pique fans' interests.
At the same time, a new movie poster has surfaced, featuring a recreation of the famous Sonic 2 North American and European box art (you'll notice Knuckles' reflection in the 2 itself).
Leading up to this reveal, Paramount released two short trailers, including a March Madness-centered trailer titled "Madness," and a gag trailer they've pitched as the "Sonic Cut."
And yeah, the "Sonic Cut" trailer is actually a series of one-frame shots with several gag images thrown in, including...
With this new trailer, we finally have a stronger sense of what the movie will actually be about, a more thorough look at the owl temple that possibly links Sonic, Knuckles, and Long Claw, and further confirmation that the Master Emerald will play a central role. All that's left is the slightly-less-than-one-month wait until its release date!
