As the world barrels towards the November 2019 release of the new Sonic Hedgehog movie, we continue to get tiny tastes of exactly what Sonic will look like in the live-action world of the film. A film style guide from design firm Hamagami/Caroll, Inc. was recently leaked online, revealing many stills of Sonic's new image before it was inevitably removed.
Fans are...well, they're not too pleased about how their beloved speedy hedgehog looks in the movie.

Many fans have began posting their own subtle redesigns of the upcoming film's hedgehog.

The main difference between Sonic's new redesign and the "classic" Sonic seems to be their eyes: the old sonic had large, interconnected eyes, with elongated pupils.
Many Twitter users, however, don't know what's changed...they just know they don't like it.

Things got even worse for the new Sonic film when yet another image of its main character was leaked during the Kid's Choice Awards.

If that's what Sonic looks like, what can we expect for Tails?

In the meantime, however, we just have to wait and hope. And perhaps ask a crucial question:
Why does Sonic look like he should be hanging over the produce section at Walmart. https://t.co/sigZEiizvt— Cess! ♥️ (@Cess! ♥️)1551897309.0
