【Dear Utol: Catfish Episode 46】

The Dear Utol: Catfish Episode 46internet has won. The release date of the live-action Sonic the Hedgehogmovie has been pushed back to February 2020.

While normally the public doesn't really know what causes these kinds of delays, this time the public causedthis delay thanks to the barrage of complaints levied against the design of the titular hedgehog after the first trailer dropped in April.

Sonic the Hedgehogdirector Jeff Fowler announced the delay on Twitter Friday.

Fowler previously acknowledged the complaints about Sonic's design in early May, pledging that the studio was listening and was going to make changes to make it all better.

People (many of them artists) immediately took to Twitter to send their condolences to the artists working on the design of Sonic in the live-action movie, who undoubtedly would have had to work grueling hours to finish in time for the film's original release date of November.

With four extra months and the hashtag "#novfxartistswereharmedinthemakingofthismovie," Fowler and the studio seem to be acknowledging that this is no small feat and they want to give artists ample time to get it done without breaking their spirits.

Some people have already noted that a change has been made after noticing that Sonic's arm in Fowler's date announcement photo is wearing the signature white glove, which was absent in the trailer.

Other people have chimed in to send their condolences to the old design of Sonic, who will probably never see the light of day outside of that one trailer.

The internet is mostly celebrating its rare win, changing the course of history for the live action Sonic the Hedgehogmovie.

Does this mean the internet will be even more insistent that movie studios, game developers, and TV writers will bend to their whims? Probably.

Does this mean that the internet will again? I hope not.
