Sonic Sat AM: Difference between revisions

(update links)
Line 26:
* [[Aliens Speaking English]]: Along with some instances of Antoine speaking French.
* [[And I Must Scream]]: Roboticized victims remain fully aware of everything they do while under Robotnik's control. As {{spoiler|Uncle Chuck states when restored}}: "we just can't ''do'' anything about it."
* [[Anti-Hero]]: [[Sliding Scale of Anti-Heroes|Type III]], Sonic is.
* [[Apocalypse How]]: Type 2, steadily progressing to type 4, with [[Ridiculously Cute Critter|Mobians]] replacing humans.
* [[Arc Words]]: At the end of "The Void", King Max tells Sonic "Take care of her" when he refers to Sally. In "Spyhog" Uncle Chuck tells Sally "Take care of him" when he refers to Sonic.
Line 63:
** Sally after she travels back in time and tries to convince her father than Julian is evil.
** A less serious example in "Spyhog". Antoine genuinely did rescue Sally during a mission, but he plays up the story so much as he's retelling it that it's no wonder Sonic didn't believe him.
* [[Catch Phrase]]:
** For Sonic, it's "Gotta juice!", "I'm waiiiiiiting!" and "[[Totally Radical|way past cool]]!"
** For Bunnie, it's "[[Gosh Dang It to Heck|Oh my stars!]]".
Line 81:
* [[Cyber Cyclops]]: The SWATbots.
* [[Cyberpunk]]: The world has become a industrial nightmare, and cybernetics has transformed society. Young streetwise punks flaunt the law, conducting guerrilla raids to overthrow a corrupt government. Coming off the heels of the 1980's, it's no surprise that this show would feature these themes.
** [[Post Cyber Punk]]: Despite how bad things have become, the heroes are trying to save the world. About as far as the anti-heroes of cyberpunk can be.
* [[Darker and Edgier]]: There were only two games, four counting the [[Game Gear]] ones, so there wasn't much to adapt. The writers took certain ideas from the games and ran with them.
** Watching the pilot episode makes the series ''itself'' seem like this. Much of the animation in the pilot (particularly Sally and Bunnie) had a much brighter, softer look than the actual show.
Line 92:
* [[Damsel in Distress]]: Though a competent Freedom Fighter, Sally falls under this role a few odd occasions (she ''is'' a princess after all). Antoine also plays a comical male variant on occasion.
* [[Distracted by the Sexy]]: Occasionally, Tails seems to be rather easily diverted. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrI6VQD-a0Y See link at 8:34...]
* [[Dodge the Bullet]]: Sonic throughout Season 1.
* [[Doomed Hometown]]: Mobotropolis.
* [[The Ditz]]: Dulcy. Bunnie to a lesser extent on occasion as well.
Line 181:
* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: Antoine has his moments.
* [[The Jimmy Hart Version]]: The orchestral background music [[Back to The Future|certainly sounds familiar]]...
** This extends even beyond the show's orchestral theme tune, to the point where the entire score is essentially one big riff on Alan Silvestri's style, complete with harmonies and dissonances based on octatonic scale patterns.
* [[Kid Appeal Character]]: Antoine has his moments of this.
* [[Killer Robot]]: Every robot built by Robotnik.
Line 240:
* [[Right-Hand-Cat]]: Cluck.
* [[Robo Cam]]: Stealth Pods.
* [[Robot Girl]] =/= [[FemBot]]: A ''mean'' one appears in "Sonic and Sally".
* [[Robot War]]: [[Emperor Scientist|Dr. Robotnik]] only uses [[Killer Robot|robots in his military.]]
* [[Royals Who Actually Do Something]]: Princess Sally.
Line 314:
* [[With Due Respect]]: Snively to Robotnik, often with [[Silence, You Fool|the same expected result]].
* [[Women Are Wiser]]: Sally, to Sonic and to an extent [[Only Sane Man|the rest of the Freedom Fighters]]. While balanced with occasional [[Not So Above It All]] moments in the First Season, it is played more or more gratingly straight later on, to the point of almost becoming [[Surrounded by Idiots]]. Bunnie and Dulcy are somewhat ditzier, though still carry the [[Idiot Ball]] a lot less often than [[The Load|Antoine]] or even [[Idiot Hero|Sonic]].
* [[You Have Failed Me...]]: Said by Robotnik to an ill fated Swatbot in "Hooked On Sonics".
** He arguably does this to Snively at the climax of ''The Doomsday Project'': Enraged at his defeat, he kicks his nephew out of the only escape pod and leaves him to die in the detonating base. {{spoiler|Snively had predicted this would happen and had created his own means of escape, while Robotnik's pod ironically got caught in the implosion of the base.}}
* [[Your Worst Nightmare]]: "Sonic's Nightmare".
