Paramount has released the first trailer for the upcoming “Sonic The Hedgehog” movie.
Based on the video game series, the live action action movie follows Sonic the Hedgehog (voiced by Ben Schwartz, perhaps best known for playing Jean Ralphio on the TV show "Parks and Recreation") as cop Tom Wachowski (James Marsden) helps him escape capture from the government, which is being aided by supervillain Dr. Robotnik (Jim Carrey).
The trailer was released Tuesday morning and has drawn mixed reactions from fans on Twitter. Some tweeted that they’re not happy with Sonic’s appearance.
Literally the ONLY thing wrong in this is Sonic himself

As much I would rant about Sonic’s design.
