Looks pretty bad.

This is the correct response. We don't live in a legal vacuum people.

"The depth is there. You want to ignore it because it fits your shallow view."

No, I'm just willing to stand up and say the emperor has no clothes, unlike you who actually believes the movie is "hopeful" purely because it has Jor-El say the word "hope".
The movie ends with untold death and destruction and with Superman…

It still eludes me how anyone actually liked MOS, but the last trailer for it was absolutely incredible. Everything is so pitch perfect. The visuals look amazing, Jor-el's monologue about the ideal of hope hits all the right notes, the new Superman theme sounds so unlike John Williams and yet so quintessentially…

"How is a general tasked with protecting his planet and obsessing over it to the point that he becomes a zealot not work? No one has ever been obsessed with racial purity in real life? No general ever attempted a coup to take over a government? Be specific. If you want to charge that its stupid then get detailed."
The…

Don't give me that crap. Of course he's the villain but its obvious that the movie is going out of its way to try and portray him as a more sympathic and tragic character.
The problem is that the "ground floor of his emotion" is founded in such stupid goddamn writting and nonsensical motivation that completely dodges…

No, it makes him a monumental idiot and completely removes whatever sympathy the audience was ever meant to feel for him. Man of Steel is one of the dumbest, loudest, and straight up pretentious films ever created and my feelings from nearly a year ago when I wrote that post above have only gotten stronger.

Dangit...now I wanna see this in a green arrow movie.

No one said it doesn't look like sonic. Just that it's no where near as defined or iconic as the others. Its much weaker from a design standpoint.

All seriousness; while this is obviously never going to happen, I can't decide if this would be awesomely jingoistic given how guddamn American Guile is, or stupidly ironic since he's meant to be a stereotypical american caricature created by Japanese developers.

Troll harder.

"I understood you perfectly, thank you. My point is that his design doesn't really matter when it is attached to something bad."

I don't know about all of Pikachu's redesigns. I just remember the one where he basically went from being very rounded to somewhat more angular. Good adjustment IMO.

Edit: Frankly I considered tracing over the image from screenshot but I figured someone would point that out. Besides, I actually think his body shape in the rendered image is worse.

....you have so effectively missed the point of my post that I'm honestly not sure I should bother replying....but what the hell:

The point of my post was that damn near every single thing about the character sucks at this point.....except for his character design. Sonic the Hedgehog is practically the Garfield of…

Ok, fine, you caught me. It's not technically classic sonic, it's just the best picture I could find when I put "sonic silhouette" into a searchbar. To be fair though, its much more reminiscent of classic sonic then most of the dreamcast era illustrations which were more like this:

Here's something to illustrate the point that this is not just sonic fans crying because they can't deal with things being different. See how much weaker the new silhouette is? I prefer Classic sonic but even the dreamcast era was much stronger.

Pikachu did not have "one of the greatest character designs of all time". The redesigns he went through made his silhouette much stronger and were much much better. The same is true of Bugs Bunny....up to a certain point.

What do you call what they're doing here?

For the record, I do not claim to know how to fix the Sonic franchise. I'm not sure anyone does. I just know that a character redesign isn't it.
