The ‘Sonic the Hedgehog’ Trailer Is a 200-Mph Traumatic Experience

The trailer for the upcoming Sonic the Hedgehog movie dropped today and, boy, is it a doozy. Fans of the classic Sega character have waited a long time to see their favourite blue furball on the big screen and now they are getting the chance. Unfortunately, the reaction online has turned sour faster than a spin dash, with many saying that the titular character (voiced by Ben Schwartz) looks creepy. Which maybe is an understatement (WHY ARE HIS TEETH SO HUMAN?).

The majority of the trailer is also soundtracked by Coolio’s “Gansta’s Paradise,” because we guess Paramount couldn’t obtain the rights to, uh, any song about speed?

The trailer also features Jim Carrey as Sonic’s enemy Dr. Robotnik, sporting a ridiculous piece of facial hair and looking more like a rejected Devo member.

Sonic the Hedgehog blazes into theatres November 8. Hide your kids, hide your wife.
