Now that the smoke, I mean dust has cleared this past weekend with the chaos of the Endgame and also GoT, we have a lot to look forward to this year. With the hype of the Pokemon’ movie and the next and hopefully not the last Star Wars movie ever to be made, we wonder, what has happened to the real classic video game movies? Yes we can talk about Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, and even Mario Brothers.
But now it is Segas turn to take the big screen. Released today is the latest film from Paramount Pictures Sonic The Hedgehog. What I thought was going to be an animated film proved me wrong. This will be done just like the style of Pokemon Detective Pikachu and will feature one of my all time favorite rubber faced comedians Jim Carey as Dr. Ivo Robotnik.
Yes, it’s a kids movie, but with technology these days, even kids movies look awesome. I’m still waiting to see the Pokemon movie. But see the trailer for yourself. Sonic The Hedgehog is in theaters in November.
Brad has been a die hard arcade fan ever since he can remember. From the first time he played Space Invaders, to the first time he played Pacman, Brad has always had a love for video games. Hanging out at either the Great American Fun Factory in the mall, or spending the night in front of the glowing games at the local roller rink, he was always thinking about when he can spend the next quarter. He also worked at Babbages, which is now GameStop, for over six years. Mostly because they had a really sweet checkout policy on new products and great discounts. But since he had the Atari 2600, he has never looked back and owned some of the greatest home machines, NES, SNES, GENESIS, Turbo Graphix 16, GameBoy, Game Gear, Lynx, Playsation 1,2,3,4 and Vita, XBOX, Gamecube, and N64...just to name a few. Brad is also a reviewer for Mobile Beat Magazine as well as a freelance videographer, part time disc jockey, performing artist and photographer. But has a true love is for video games and Star Wars, as he is a member of the 501st Central Garrison. His ultimate dream is to own a fully working pinball machine and arcade machine. Difficult to say which one, but a Star Wars one would be nice start.
