Anyway to celebrate the chinese new year I decided to watch some movies (Just seen Drunken Master 1 and 2) and now watching The Monkey King. I'm bringing this up because like Casshern it is more live-action over CGI with limited, little use of full live action scenes.

This movie looks really awesome and I can imagine the Sonic movie like this. Especially Mount Huaguo where Monkey comes from which reminds me a lot of Green Hill Zone, but set above clouds than the sea.

Not saying Sonic should be played by a live actor under prosphetics like Sun wukong was... that be wierd. Just the whole movie developed the same way. Good point of the Sonic Underground aspect. I used to watch kung-fu movies with my dad as a kid, I remember Drunken Master 1&2, many more, just seen The Monkey King, but I think it should be a combination of asian and western. It could be fair enough for a wide audience becuase it goes both ways, it works...it had even worked for franchises like Fast & Furious and Kung Fu Panda, but it still doesn't matter if it goes that way. It could. What if it didn't?
