I swear to God every time I see one of those "JAPAN REALLY IS LIVING IN 2050" videos, it's just showing technology that's existed and been available to the public since the 80s and 90s, something that actually commonly exists and you can do outside of Japan, or some novelty invention that not even the general Japanese public regularly uses in their daily lives because it's actually more of an inconvenience to use it.

I can't blame Chris for wanting to get out of that empty mansion as much as possible, and wanting a bunch of primary colored furries to live with him forever, when the mansion has some of the worst aspects of the "Beige Mom" aesthetic. The place looks depressing to live in, man.

There's a mixed feeling I get of being blown away, but confused, whenever I stumble upon some obscure licensed game and then turn out for it to have some legit bangers. Even more so when they go hard despite hardware limitations. Like these two examples, both composed by Alberto Jose Gonzalez.

I don't know about everyone else, but I think "Hit or Miss" is the best way to describe Dreamworks' library of animated feature films.

I can't believe there's now someone officially worse than Ken Penders, in terms of people who've been involved with the Sonic franchise. But even with Penders, his "crimes" were mostly bad writing and art, having an ego, and saying really embarrassing and cringeworthy shit online. Not knowingly abetting a pedophile who used to work at Nickelodeon by pleeing to a judge to significantly reduce his sentence, and going so as far as to blame the victim while doing so; unlike James Marsden.

It's infuriates me how I keep seeing people repeating the same response, "It was over 20 years ago, and he might have changed his views about it since then!" Treating the act of enabling a pedophile after they were convicted(so he and the others who defended Brian Peck weren't blissfully unaware) like it's the same thing as someone who used to say a bunch of slurs on Call of Duty when they were younger because they thought they were being edgy. Yeah no, begging leniency for something like that isn't just a simple oopsie when you were well aware of what the person was on trial for,and when it has long lasting consequences on current and future victims.
Even if James Marsden was ignorant of it at the time, and regrets it and feels bad about it, saying something only after it all came out- when he had 20 years to do so- is just going to feel disingenuous and only doing it to save his reputation. It's a really bad look no matter what he does.
This is one of those cases where I can't really blame someone for having a really hard time separating a character from their creator or actor. With most animated characters you can just recast their voice actor, because they're appearance and identity usually isn't so strongly tied to their voice actors, and when they are based off of someone they're a caricature of them(a lot of Hannah Barb characters were exactly that). It's not as simple with a lot of live-action characters that don't involve heavy prosthetics and make-up or CGI, when just about everything to the character design, voice, and cadence, is the actor portraying them. Tom is pretty much James Marsden playing himself, just like the movie version of Robotnik is Jim Carrey doing his usual schtick. If they were to recast either character with another actor you will immediately notice it. That's the rub with live-action, compared to animation as a medium: The actions of an actor can indirectly taint how people can view the characters they portray, or what they've worked on, going forward.
Every Sonic movie so far seems to have had some significant uphill battle.
1st movie: Sonic's original butt ugly design.
2nd movie: COVID.
3rd movie: A writer's strike, and now James Marsden being exposed for defending a pedophile who formerly worked at Nickelodeon.

This is something I always liked about Sonic Underground, and I think adds to the show when it comes to world building. It makes sense for Robotnik to be getting funding from outside sources and to leave the supporting parties in question alone in order to continue receiving it, instead of just indiscriminately roboticize everyone. If anything, the threat of robotiscization in this show seems to be used as more of a way to deter people from rebelling or associating with anyone trying to take him down. Meanwhile, the people on the bottom of the social class system created from his conquest end up being the ones who are fucked over by it.
Sounds a bit familiar to what goes on in real life....

I'm glad to hear that! Now it makes me wish the show had gotten an actual proper conclusion, seeing how they were likely planning on eventually further going into what happened to Sonic and his sibling's adoptive family.
Full disclosure, I haven't gotten around to fully watching Sonic Underground, yet. Thank you streaming services, official Youtube uploads, and Kimcartoon, for having the episodes out of order or not properly titled.

Something that kind of always bothered me in, Sonic Underground, was Sonic, Manic, and Sonia's guardians being seemingly forgotten after the first episode and never addressed again for the rest of the series. Manic and Sonia were raised by their adoptive parents since they were infants, Sonic lost his before Chuck took him in so he experienced loosing parental figures twice. You think the idea of eventually rescuing and de-roboticizing them would be a subject that would come up often- like Uncle Chuck was in SatAm- while the three searched for their biological mother.
Maybe they did have plans to eventually address it. But the show never got a proper conclusion, and unfortunately never will from the looks of it at this point.

Hearing what's come to light about James Marsden, Tom's role in an AU I'm working on, Gilded Cage, is now gonna age like milk left outside in the summer Nevada heat. I'll just say that it involves a very similar dark subject matter.
Man, what a way for an actor to indirectly taint how people can view a character they're portraying.

This is why the fan theory/headcanon exists of the Oracle of Delphius really being the true villain of Sonic Underground after all.
It's hard to believe someone would be stupid enough to outright inform the bad dude about his future demise, and tell him who would be responsible for it, unless their trying to sabotage the whole prophecy thing or they just want to dick everyone around. Better to believe that then the whole usual plot contrivance thing.

Uuuuuh, they really should have reconsidered putting in the last part with what Manic said to his brother.
