Fuck yeah! I can finally watch this movie, and have avoided ALL spoilers.

Gonna watch it now. I hope Metal Sonic shows up. I’ve been predicting it since I saw the trailer with Sonic giving Robotnik the quill.

Okay, so for real, what the fuck was up with the stinger with the Metallix and Amy Rose?

Soooooo...

The first part of that is a reference to both the Sonic Fleetway Comics that had a villain called the Brotherhood of Metallix I believe, and to Sonic CD which featured both Metal and Amy.

The third movie's pacing is weird, so apparently Sonic ran at such a speed he ended up in a weird location at a different time of day despite ostensibly starting in the same time/place as his friends. We don't know why or how the Metal Sonics jumped him, or who built them. It's Schrodinger's Plot right now because if Carrey comes back they could have him create Metal Sonic as per game canon, but it could also be someone else if he doesn't.

My initial thought was that Amy has come back in time in order to Set Right What Once Went Wrong.

My wild mass guess right now is that Sonic accidentally pulled a Barry Allen (notice how it was darker outside than when he left) and accidentally ran into the future (which would track considering CD features trime travel We didn't see Sonic run past a sign post or anything, but I think there was one in that area during an earlier scene). Especially because Sonic didn't seem to know where he was either.

Alternatively, Sonic did an over-Flash Step into New York State Park, and Metal Sonic time travelled to Sonic's present to annihilate him. And the rest of your theory applies.

I personally thought Sonic ran so fast he ended up going to some bad future or even another world with hedgehogs.

Plus they have to pick up that subplot with GUN and Rockwell, so my guess is they captured one of Sonic's quills and started making robotic copies to deal with him and Shadow.

But then where does Amy factor into that?

Future hedgehog warrior princess from a future where her hero Sonic was slain during the Robotnik Metal Wars. Also, she figures into it by being from the games so we all know and love her instantly as a resistance fighter.

Amy has weird magical powers so she could be a time-traveler or a warrior from a Bad Future.

So hot take, I think it was a mistake to have Knuckles and Shadow as back to back rivals who turn to the good guys side since they have such similar beats for their turn.

I'm excited for Metal Sonic because at least he'll have a VERY different dynamic with Sonic.

[up][up][up]...oh yeah, that makes sense [lol]

[up]Even though I get why some fans are peeved that there is more than one Metal, I do think it would have felt redundant with Shadow otherwise. This also opens the door for other forms to appear like Neo Metal, maybe even Mecha.

Oh man, good thing it wasn't in the final film, it would have been too outlandish to show!

Dude, I'd love to see Jim Carrey Eggman actually be a dad to Metal Sonic and Sage after all the shit that happened to him in this movie.

I wish Wild Canyon (I assume?) made it into the film.

Well, there was the plot of it also going to take place in Mexico (where they found Eggy), so maybe that was part of the artifact for it?

(Spoilers for Sonic 3) Sega Hardlight released a new Sonic Forces: Speed Battle event that adds Super Movie Shadow, whose render is a bit more in-line with the game's version of Super Shadow, where he's more yellow rather than hot pink.
