Sonic the Hedgehog (OVA): Difference between revisions

Line 37:

* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: Knuckles' entrance.

* [[Big Damn Movie]]: The games were just stock "[[Excuse Plot|beat the bad guy to save the world and cute fuzzy animals]]" type games. This movie features intense action scenes, an {{spoiler|[[Adam and Eve Plot]], the potential destruction of the entire planet}}, and {{spoiler|the death of Metal Sonic at the end}}.

* [[Big Shut Up]]: '''SHUT UP, TAILS!'''

* [[Big "Shut Up!"]]: '''SHUT UP, TAILS!'''

* [[Bittersweet Ending]]: {{spoiler|The world is saved, but Metal Sonic (who had then formed a mental bond with Sonic) deliberately allows himself to perish in a glacial volcano. Why? Because "There is only one Sonic."}}

* [[Bond Villain Stupidity]]: Robotnik is clearly one of those grandiose super villains who doesn't want to simply kill his foe, but first defeat him in something resembling a fair fight. Hence the scene where Robotnik, taking advantage of Sonic's and Tails' distraction, whips out a handgun and shoots Tails' wrist-radar — even though [[Boom Headshot|Tails' head]] must have been an equally clear shot.

Line 60:

* [[The End of the World As We Know It]]: Two different schemes are mentioned. {{spoiler|Metal Robotnik's exploding generator turns out to be fake}}, but {{spoiler|Hyper Metal Sonic's attempt to shatter the continents is very real}}.

* [[Everybody Laughs Ending]]

* [[Everyone Calls Him Barkeep]]: The President.

* [[Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep"]]: The President.

* [[Evil Knockoff]]

* [[Expy]]: Sera is pretty much a human (except for an inexplicable tail) Amy Rose, presumably Amy herself didn't make an appearance becuase her being the president's daughter and Eggman's 'interest' didn't work quite as well, in the creator's minds anyway.

Line 72:

* [[Gadgeteer Genius]]: Tails. He builds a hover-surfboard in his spare time, disassembles one of Robotnik's radars, and later reassembles it as a device that can track Metal Sonic — {{spoiler|and wirelessly interfere with Metal's programming}}. This movie appears to be where Tails' mechanical tendencies come from, in fact.

* [[Gag Dub]]: [[Fireball 20 XL]]'s ''Sonic Bastardized'' is a redubbed adaptation in which <s>Robotnik</s> Eggman wants Sonic to go shut off a bomb he planted in [[Blizzard Entertainment]]'s mainframe (in retribution for his ''[[World of Warcraft]]'' losses), and Metal Sonic is a robot named Hyper Metal Jason (after [[Jason Griffith]]) that Eggman intends to use to replace Sonic's voice.

* [[Get a Hold of Yourself Man]]: Sonic attempts to knock some sense into Old Man Hoot by [[Jerk With a Heart of Gold|attaching a crab to his foot]], [[The Ditz|has limited success]].

* [[Get a Hold of Yourself, Man!]]: Sonic attempts to knock some sense into Old Man Hoot by [[Jerk With a Heart of Gold|attaching a crab to his foot]], [[The Ditz|has limited success]].

* [[Go Karting With Bowser]]: Dr. Eggman is seen playing around with the president and his daughter in several scenes.

* [[Groin Attack]]: Sonic lands crotch-first on the nose of Robotnik's aircraft. Robotnik then wonders why Sonic is grimacing.

Line 91:

* [[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]]!}}

{{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.

* [[Noble Demon]]: Hyper Metal Sonic.

* [[Ocular Gushers]]

* [[Off Model]]: Happens about as much as ''[[Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog]]''.

* [[Off-Model]]: Happens about as much as ''[[Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog]]''.

* [[Only One Name]]: Sera.

* [[Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping]]: Sonic will sometimes sound like a British woman when the voice acting gets particularly energetic.

Line 106:

* [[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}}.

* [[Pilot]]: The film was originally released as two separate half-hour pilots in Japan, [[Germans Love David Hasselhoff|but due to Sonic's lack of popularity there]] the potential anime series never got off the ground. When it was dubbed, the two specials were merged together and released in the US as what we call ''Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie''.

* [[Power Creep Power Seep]]: In ''[[Sonic 3 and Knuckles (Video Game)|S3&K]]'', Knuckles could glide through the air. Here, it gets upgraded to the ability to jump ridiculously high, hover in midair, and possibly fly outright.

* [[Power Creep, Power Seep]]: In ''[[Sonic 3 and Knuckles (Video Game)|S3&K]]'', Knuckles could glide through the air. Here, it gets upgraded to the ability to jump ridiculously high, hover in midair, and possibly fly outright.

** Like Tails' propensity for mechanical shenanigans, seems to be the start of a trend of non-game media to upgrade Knuckles' gliding to full-fledged flight.

* [[The ~~Presidents~~ Daughter]]: Sera.

* [[The President's Daughter]]: Sera.

* [[Psychic Link]]: Between Sonic and Metal Sonic.

* [[Real Men Wear Pink]]: Sonic's aforementioned "favorite clothes" are bright pink.

Line 119:

* [[Shattered World]]: Planet Freedom.

* [[Shout Out]]: One of the derelict aircraft on Sonic's island looks suspiciously like [[Star Trek|the USS Enterprise]]. Also, Sera's wedding dress is reminiscent of [[Sailor Moon|Neo-Queen Serenity]]'s outfit.

* [[Shut UP Hannibal]]: Robotnik gets a whack from an annoyed Sara when he gloats about how Sonic will face an even greater threat than his just-defeated Metal Robotnik.

* [[Shut UP, Hannibal]]: Robotnik gets a whack from an annoyed Sara when he gloats about how Sonic will face an even greater threat than his just-defeated Metal Robotnik.

* [[Spell My Name With an S]]: Her name is Sera in the original Japanese, and Sara in the English dub. "Sarah" is right out.

* [[Spell My Name With an "S"]]: Her name is Sera in the original Japanese, and Sara in the English dub. "Sarah" is right out.

* [[Spoiler Opening]]: The very first scene is Dr. Robotnik talking about acquiring Sonic's life data for Metal.

* [[Story Boarding the Apocalypse]]: Knuckles' explanation of how exactly {{spoiler|Metal Sonic is capable of destroying the planet}}.

Line 129:

* [[The Renaissance Age of Animation]]

* [[This Is Something He's Got to Do Himself]]: Sonic insists that he has to defeat Metal alone. Initially.

* [[The Ugly ~~Guys~~ Hot Daughter]]: Sera.

* [[The Ugly Guy's Hot Daughter]]: Sera.

* [[Translation Train Wreck]]: One DVD version of the movie has subtitles that, for example, call Knuckles "Knucklus," and call Eggman "Machine King."

* [[Unusual Euphemism]]: "Sonic will never again be a pain in my egg!"
