The trailer, as seen above, gives us a complete look at what to expect from this movie. There was an outcry from the community over the unsettling look of Sonic. Because of this, director Jeff Fowler vows to change the design of Sonic.

He released a tweet today stating that he has heard the criticisms and concerns from the community, and changes are “going to happen.”

With the backing of both Paramount and Sega, it seems that changes are all but certain. Members of the community have taken it upon themselves to redesign Sonic. One issue was the blue hedgehog’s human-like teeth. Another inconsistency are his eyes, which are normally more cartoonish and larger.
