Honestly, I would carefully put second and even a third consideration if I ever had the oppotunity to make Sonic for the theatres.

'cus let's face it, movies based on video games tend to bomb. It grossed enough money in it's income but it was panned with negative reviews and heavy critism. Most movies based on popular games rarely live up to the expectations of what they're based on.

So if I was to make the Sonic the Hedgehog movie, I would estimate how well it will be recieved from Sonic's reputation with his games and a suitable marketing stradegy that would assure the movie will at least gets average reviews and no less.

As for how I would like to make the movie. well my inspirations in styles would be such films as Casshern and The Monkey King which blends live-action over CGI. Sonic and his friends would be computer generated as well as the majority of the movie being rendered over blue-screen but all the human characters would be played by actors.

I do have a story in mind, it be about a group of scientist led by Dr. Robotnik who go on an expedition to explore a newly found island in the south that gives off mysterious energy readings. Their they found the mobo-sapians, or mobians, a species of hyper-evolved animals. They meet Sonic and finds his village (which looks like an edo period japanese village) and that they have a chaos emerald enshrined there. Dr. Robotnik enslaves the mobians to take the chaos emerald and Sonic, along with Dr. Madonna, one of the scientists in the expedition, must stop Robotnik and save the islanders.
