Jim Carrey confirms he's gonna play Eggman in Sonic the Hedgehog movie. No CGI.

[Megalan]

In terms of Carrey’s next movie, it’s Paramount’s feature take on Sega’s Sonic the Hedgehog. He plays the villain Dr. Ivo ‘Eggman’ Robotnik.

“It will be live-action,” says Carrey about the character.

How will the stand-up-of-a-thousand-faces create him?

“Magic!” shouted Carrey to the TCA crowd, “mixed with desperation.”

Oh man this is gonna be so good

[Borealis]

Oh lord. Taking all bets whether it'll have hedgehog/human romance. Robotnik will be a Doc Brown type local inventor

[jimbobjoe1234]

Why, why couldn't they have just done a CGI film instead? For once just copy Nintendo.

[Physalis]

Oh man this is going to be such a train wreak. Going to have to find a theater with all the gimmicks for maximum ocular trash absorption.

INFINITE RUBBISH!

[proboardslol]

This is going to be 1000x better

[-Rusty-]

Nah but what I really meant was.. LIMITLESS REFUSE!!!

[Megalan]

I see they have got Jason Statham as cameraman. Good choice.

Holy shit im dead

[kylel999]

Who the fuck is the one actually fronting all the money for this

[Nidhogg]

This feels like it's gonna' be like The Smurfs all over again.

[Steel]

It's 100% hearsay, but I've heard there's a chance that SEGA has backing from the Yakuza. Could be true, but you never know.

[Karmah]

They're copying nintendo like when they okay'ed the Super Mario Bros movie

[Del91]

Fucking live action? What the hell

[Burro]

Whoever managed to successfully pitch this movie has powers of persuasion far in advance of all of mankind and are far too dangerous to remain alive.

[Unclejimmema]

I can't wait for the Chrischan review personally.

[zizzleplix]

Finally we're getting a high budget version of that Sonic fan film from like 5 or 6 years back (the one with the terrible CGI, Doug Walker cameo, etc.) :V

But in all seriousness, Sega should've partnered with the studio that did the Sonic Unleashed CGI cutscenes (along with that short) to do a Sonic film. None of this live-action bullshit with likely uncanny valley as hell CGI Sonic characters (i.e. the live action/CG Yogi Bear film, the first two live-action/CG Smurfs movies, etc.).

Why in the ever loving fuck is it not Barry Corbin
