----
{{tropelist}}
=== Provides examples of: ===
* [[Abnormal Ammo]]: Metal Robotnik's glue gun.
* [[Accidental Pervert]]: Sonic can apparently [[Psychic Link|see through Metal Sonic's eyes]] due to Metal being a copy of Sonic; this explains why Sonic was blushing when Metal [[Panty Shot|got a good look up Sera's skirt]]. The [[Getting Crap Past the Radar|radar also missed]] Tails grabbing hold of Sera after being scared and one of his hands mistakenly grabbing onto one of her breasts. Knuckles tells him off for it.
Line 31:
* [[Animation Bump]]: The fight scenes. The rest is largely [[Limited Animation|more limited]] despite the designs being (somewhat) similar to those from ''[[Sonic CD]]''
* [[As You Know]]: Lampshaded.
{{quote| '''Robotnik''': As you both well know, Planet Freedom is made up of two separate dimensions. The outer world, the one you live in, is known as the Land of the Sky!<br />
'''Sonic''': Tell us something we don't know! }}
* [[Bare Your Midriff]]: Sera during the first half of the movie shows off her middle, but not so much after she dons her dress later.
Line 48:
* [[Canon Discontinuity]]: While never outright stated, the movie seems to be doomed to this status, due to its lack of direct connection to the games, the fact that Sega never ''ever'' brings it up in the documentaries, and the current lack of re-releases (although this could be due to ADV Films, the company that dubbed it, going bankrupt after its 2004 re-release) and its obscure, generally unknown status as a whole. With that said, "Look-a-like" was released on the compilation album True Colors in 2009, so SEGA hasn't completely forgotten about it.
* [[Death Course]]: The path to Robotropolis, though Sonic and Tails make short work of it.
{{quote| '''Sonic''': I bet Robotnik purposefully picked the route with the most traps for us!}}
* [[Distressed Damsel in Distress]]: Sera...sort of. She plays the role of hostage when Sonic's around, but she treats Robotnik like a friend the rest of the time.
{{quote| (''Sera and Robotnik are playing a fighting videogame. Sera loses.'')<br />
'''Sera''' (''hysterical''): No no no no no it's not fair you always beat me every time! (''abruptly regains her composure'') Alright, one more!<br />
'''Robotnik''': Just give up! We've played a hundred times!<br />
'''Sera''' (''devious''): I'll stop being your hostage...<br />
'''Robotnik''': Alright, start it again. }}
* [[The Ditz]]: Old Man Hoot didn't even realize his ''rocket was on fire''!
Line 82:
* [[Lava Pit]]
* [[Makes Us Even]]:
{{quote| '''Sonic''': Thanks a lot, pal! I owe you one!<br />
'''Knuckles''': I think we're even. }}
<!-- %% Memetic Mutation belongs in the YMMV page. Do not post it here. -->
* [[Mood Whiplash]]: The scene where {{spoiler|Metal Sonic dies is really stuck in utter contrast to the previous scene, which was a comedic albeit intense action-packed battle. Heck, it sticks out in utter contrast with the rest of the film's tone and mood in general.}}
* [[Motivational Kiss]]: Sera gives one to Knuckles.
Line 91 ⟶ 90:
* [[Never Say "Die"]]: Averted. "When you awaken...KILL him!" (cue [[Evil Laugh]])
** Also averted when Robotnik meets Sonic at the Generator.
{{quote| '''Robotnik''': You fell for my trap! You came all the way here and now you'll die here. [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero|Good job, Sonic]]!}}
* [[Nice Hat]]: Knuckles has one. If just for the [[Rule of Cool]]. Used for a [[Crowning Moment of Funny]] later when it gets set on fire in the climax of the film.
{{quote| '''Knuckles''': '''MY HAT'S ON FIRE, HELP!'''}}
* [[Noble Demon]]: Hyper Metal Sonic.
* [[Ocular Gushers]]
Line 102 ⟶ 101:
* [[Our Presidents Are Different]]: He's both President Target and President Buffoon.
* [[Panty Shot]]: {{spoiler|In the climax of the movie, Metal Sonic's head gets knocked through the bottom of Robotnik's hovercraft, right underneath Sera. She accuses him of trying to look up her skirt and starts kicking him in the face.}}
{{quote| {{spoiler|'''Sera''': Back, no no no! Don't look there, you pervert!}}}}
* [[Personality Chip]]: Thanks to the wristwatch Tails recieved from Eggman that he managed to dismantle, he is able to {{spoiler|wirelessly mess with Metal's personality programming}}; this gives Sonic a crucial advantage in the fight.
* [[Pet the Dog]]: After winning his first fight against Sonic, Metal Sonic tracks down Old Man Hoot and...{{spoiler|gives him Sonic's favorite clothes}}.
Line 124 ⟶ 123:
* [[Story-Boarding the Apocalypse]]: Knuckles' explanation of how exactly {{spoiler|Metal Sonic is capable of destroying the planet}}.
* [[Stupid Statement Dance Mix]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9fHGdR1IyM Planet Freedom, Planet Freedom, they conquered Planet Freedom.]
* [[Surprisingly Good English]]: The ending song, "Look Alike", is sung (and spoken for a bit) in, for the most part, <ref><small>The singer pronounces memory as "memorai" in one verse, which itself isn't entirely grammatically sound.</refsmall></smallref> well-pronounced and grammatically correct English.
* [[Take My Hand]]: {{spoiler|Sonic to Metal when the latter is about to sink into lava. Metal declines, saying "There is only one Sonic..." and then dissolves.}}
* [[There Can Be Only One]]: This, rather than Robotnik's order, is Metal Sonic's real motivation for trying to kill Sonic. {{spoiler|And ultimately, his reason for declining his [[Last Second Chance]] after losing to Sonic.}}
