OKAY SONIC FANS HARD QUESTION FOR YOU!
This is a movie that is making a lot of money. It operates on the original human world concept that Sonic operated on (mostly humans all animal people are major characters) and no one complains, no one questions anything.
But for Sonic which is less story focused people kept wondering why there were not constantly animal people as NPCs. Why was this a problem for Sonic and not what is becoming a major Hollywood franchise?
