I'll also have to come to terms with Zavok being in there too. He'll look great, but alas, it takes way more than that to make me change my thoughts in the slightest.

Why did I need to see this during a phone call?  I just started laughing randomly!

Glad to hear I had a bit of a fever 2 days ago, strong headaches and sore throat, but I'm fine now 😊

Good to see you're in good physical health and that that stubborn cold is finally behind you.

Also lad that your fever didn't stick around @Jango.

I probably don't have enough info to say anything myself but I always found SXSW to always be as much multimedia fun as it is a videogame show and the Sonic panels have always leaned more into the fun side of it. The only reason I'm staying optimistic myself for something more is because this year the panel is actually being live streamed by the SXSW organizers so that tells me there should be a little more than their usually playing around with some info sprinkled in. Hopefully we'll get something surprising that well surpasses our expectations.

I think it's about time, expectations are high. Or we gonna get a new cartoon or a new game, and both sound fantastic tbh.

I expect from this conference is that they show the substancial TSR footage that should've shown a while ago, and maybe pull the curtain on a new cartoon.

I'm not counting on it showing, but I certainly want them to debut the movie, be it a trailer, clip or a image that offically reveals Sonic's design. 

To me, he looks like an uncanny valley abomination. Like a bootleg teddy bear based on the movie given life.

At this point I just think the design is too inconsistent to even work. We've see the fuzzy body builder, the gremlin with the Disney princess eyes and Muppet mouth, and now the blue generic plush with the weird black hole mouth. 

I kind of can't wait to see the trailer just to see if they actually have a consistent design in use in the movie or if it has even more inconsistencies.

Maybe get a LAN adapter or a router of your own?

Interesting idea. I guess we need to pick an appropriate provider and test the waters, first. I wasn't aware that they are other produces that can help with the problem, so that's reassuring.

Sometimes I panic way too soon. Well....most of the time, actually. 

Well hopefully your internet speed concerns will be a short lived thing and you can otherwise enjoy your new place.

I mean of course.

If this is re: movie Sonic, there's a chance that he'll be a lot easier to digest once animated and seen in-context.  Promo renders can be a bit overly photoshopped sometimes.  I can't remember them off the top of my head, but I'm sure there are existing renders of Modern Sonic etc which I feel look lifeless or weird but obviously modern Sonic animates fine (in the right hands).  Even in the movie renders, I find the Smash Bros pose render to be uncanny and piercing to look at, but the 2006 pose render looks softer and more pleasant.

*cough* Seizure Sonic from Unleashed anyone?

^ To be fair, that one looked bad in and out of motion, hence why it was changed in the final game lol

Almost impossibly, that one absolutely looks even worse in motion.

Uh oh. Something wrong IRL man?

Maybe you should talk to someone. Suppressing it and staying quiet isn’t the best or healthiest thing to do. 

That said I’m here if you want to talk. 

Whatever’s going on I hope things and you will be okay. 

With you on that, buddy.

But you can always reach out to me.

@Failinhearts and @DanJ86  I'm always here for you

Yep, if you need to talk we're here, even if it's just to take your mind off things for a bit so you can recharge and have the strength to face things again.

Well given the new render, it might beeee....
