I have to agree with OP for two likely reasons.

Most Marvel and DC movies are unique to the canon comics. Spiderman movies restarted it's cinematic universe after Tobey Mcaguire passed the mask to Sam Raimi, plus other DC movies seperate from the Spider-man series until proven other wise. I think Marvel has been consistant with their cinematic universe since 2000.

Another bit is that Sega already had a cinematic universe for Sonic (or to be more prcise a "video universe" or something). The movie takes place on Planet Freedom which consists of an overworld of continents and floating islands known as the Land of the Sky which shadows the ground and seas beneith the continents known as the Land of Darkness.

I highly doubt Sega will make a reboot of Sonic the Movie with Planet Freedom, but it does seem more likely they'll introduce a brand new cinematic universe specially made for Sonic and his friends.
