With all the Sonic threads in the past week let's have a proper one.

Consider Sonic Prime. How would you reboot the Sonic franchise?

You may search in the archive, there's some pretty good ideas in there especially from the constant fancomic storytiming we've had that beats the dogshit out of Archie/IDW/Flynn.

Id serialize the original sonic movie

I'd turn it into Megaman X + Zero. Prime was such a borefest beyond the initial city world.

I wanna preface that I fundamentally dislike remakes and reboots, but I do think that Sonic as a franchise is a mess and probably could use a hard reset.
>Remake Sonic Adventure 1 and 2. Keep the same general stories but clean them up, maybe even interconnect them slightly more (2 already does this by having the chaos enemies and Biolizard looking like perfect chaos). The original genesis games still happened but dont need to be remade, they can just acknowledge a version of them happened before.
They can just jump off from there, if they are smart they'd do a proper SA3 using whatever engine they use to remake the first 2 and print some money.
I also think they either need to fully commit to the ide of interweaving the comics (which would require another restart of them), or drop the comic thing all together.

I enjoyed Prime for what it was, but also didn't like the multiverse premise which meant Sonic was the only member of the main cast that actually went on the adventure. And the climax was just "and then everything went back to normal", which felt kinda lame after everything that had happened

That thread was funny.

If I was serious about making a good video game adaption then it would have to be a long-ass music video like Interstella 5555, it's the only way to tell a mute story while making people FEEL. And even then people still wouldn't GET_IT

Sonic is similar to Pokemon in that you expect some things out of it (Beyblades, Rayman) and you get jackshit out of the cartoon/japanese cartoon. I'd put the Europeans in charge of it, namely the French. I think they'd do a great job with it. Rayman's cartoon also sucked because it refused to follow the video games. FOLLOW THE GODDAMN VIDEO GAMES and just MAKE A SPORTS CARTOON ABOUT IT. Imagine putting some retard TV Show writer in charge of making a cartoon about Magic The Gathering and instead of it being like YuGiOh and Kaijudo it's instead about the real world and all the monsters are just human stand ins for said monsters, that's the level of bad we're working with on Sonic, that's how bad SEGA treats Sonic.

I was so disappointed when it wasn't 2D and it wasn't Chemical Plant Zone?
Can we talk about how Rayman has been misused too?

Doesn't feel unique enough. Feels like any generic cartoon, namely Astroboy and Megaman, which still kicks Sonic's Felix The Cat ass. That's where the joke comes from that Sonic is a cat. For fucks sake Rouge is basically Cat Woman if she stole Bruce's theme.

>Evil yandere Tails
All they needed was to turn him into a woman and done.
>>
Brown Sonic turning Blue was a pretty good origin comic.

>Sonic and Tails are the main stars of each episode/issue/whatever. Buddy adventures!
>use some of Fleetway's Laputa-vibes for Angel Island, have Knux portrayed not as a total dolt but still rather naive
>have Shadow be portrayed more in line with how he is in the games, rather than IDW or Archie. Not cuddly and friendly, not a dimwitted jobber, just a gruff anti-hero. A few hints of his softer side, but nothing extreme.
>Amy has some of her fangirl personality back, but isn't a crazy stalker
>Rouge, Silver, The Chaotix, etc. all portrayed as they are in games
>no more Classic/Modern divide
>maybe have Sally and the Acorn Kingdom show up as a setting for Sonic to save, with the Freedom Fighters as Sally's Royal Guard or something, and Nicole as the AI running Castle Acorn's computers. Use them sparingly though, no having Sonic hang out in the Acorn Kingdom all the time.
>More villains other than Eggman. Black Doom and Fang, maybe Metamorphia and Brutus from Fleetway, Surge/Kit/Starline from IDW, ONE echidna villain like Zachary or Finitevus, maybe bird-Erazor Djinn (pic related) as an evil figure from Babylon's past
>no real limit on drawing characters/inspiration from Sonic X, Archie, IDW, Fleetway, etc. so long as the writing is good.
>if Whisper shows up, she is not allowed to have crying panic attacks every single appearance.
>focus is on adventure and defeating villains. All the boring Archie relationship drama and stupid heccin' wholesome IDW bullshit like picnics and beach volleyball will be left out.
