I think Night of the Werehog was Sega's way of "testing the water" to see if Sega can cut it making a cinematic movie. NotW was met with possitive response and I guess they decide to go with it. I think that by that kind of animation used in Night of the Werehog could be perfect for the Sonic movie. Plus...it could also be a way to show off something new, marking Marza live-action debut for the very first time, hopefully forwarded toward more films, some companies have actually done the same, that being 20 Century, Blue Sky, Columbia, Dreamworks, and so on
