Knuckles Trailer, My Thoughts

In 1994, Sega released the third game in the Sonic the Hedgehog series: Sonic the Hedgehog 3. This game saw the debut of a red anthropomorphic short-beaked echidna named Knuckles. In the game, Knuckles was an antagonist to Sonic and Miles "Tails" Prower. He wasn't really evil, just the victim of manipulation by the villainous Dr. Robotnik. The 1994 game Sonic & Knuckles would see his debut as a playable character, having the mechanics of gliding and climbing walls to differentiate himself from Sonic. 

Knuckles would go on to be a popular character in the franchise, and he would appear as one of Sonic's regular allies in various non-video game Sonic media, including cartoons and comics. He would make his live-action debut in the 2022 film Sonic the Hedgehog 2, voiced by British actor Idris Elba. Elba is set to reprise the role in a six-episode spinoff miniseries that will also help presumably set up his status quo in the upcoming film Sonic the Hedgehog 3. This series will see Knuckles help try and train Green Hills deputy sheriff Let's look at the trailer!

"No, I am not this 'Superman' person! What even is a Superman?!" 

He also likes to do a bit of revenge. Gotta change things up on occasion. 

Knucks is totally gonna punch that dude out at some point. 

FALCON PAWWWWWWWWNCH!

You know Knucks, Sonic has a point. Even the greatest warriors value rest and relaxation. Helps keep you happy and healthy.

Knuckles has good taste in chips. Doritos makes great chips. Cool Ranch and Nacho Cheese are the best! Mmm...Cool Ranch and Nacho Cheese Doritos chips...

Hee hee, dog in a Viking helmet.

Looks like Knuckles did find a hobby. I wouldn't expect it to be traumatizing mailmen, but to each their own, I guess.

Now that you think about it, Knuckles would make a killing in this world as a self-defense instructor. I mean, the novelty of being trained by an anthropomorphic red echidna alone would rake in the cash.

Hey, he got his hat!

And of course, we got a bad guy. 

Heh heh, call back.

Way to ruin the moment, lady.

Hey, Pachacamac!

Lamborghini Countaches look cool, but I have heard they aren't exactly the best cars to actually drive. 😕

More like punched by a flaming fist, but A for effort!

Well, I have to admit, I think this will be a fun watch. It's a shame I don't have Paramount+. Hopefully, it'll also get to stream somewhere else. Like Tubi. I love Tubi. I also have got to watch Sonic 2 sometime. Thanks for reading this blog entry! If you liked it, show it off! Take care of yourselves and each other! Stay safe, stay healthy, stay home, wash your hands often, wear a mask, and get your vaccine/booster!  See you next time!
