Description
From Cool ape. Lost the most recent file so I had to redo some stuff. Immediatly fixed up a few sketches that didn't work well and added a bonus joke. Thanks to ultra for the suggestions.Part 2:
A knuckles production: Nothing to do with SATam but little jab at Sonic triple trouble. Hey, it's still 90's Sonic. Can't believe I didn't make this observation back when I did the full Triple trouble parody.
Sonic's solution to problems: I know what you're saying. Roger, the sketch was really boring and predictable. Well yeah, that's the point. That's exactly how it feels to watch these "action scenes" in Season 1. This is a typical cartoon issue, most episodes only have room for one real action scene, at the climax. Every other problem the heroes encounter is just a pointless encounter to set up a commercial cliffhanger.
As a result, they spent a full 1 minute showing us how desperate and scary the situation is , and after the commercial is over, we see the hero deal with the problem in 10 seconds.
You might not notice it when you watch only one episode a week, with the commercials included, but watch several episodes in one sitting without interuptions, and you notice how often we get a "Oh no! A MONSTER!!" sequence, ending with Sonic just shrugging and running off. Sure, running is Sonic's thing, and the strategy always works, so I can't blame him.
But why Robotnik always designs deathtraps that can only be beaten by running really fast really baffles me. I think there's 2 episodes where Robotnik specifically designed a trap that only works when Sonic runs, including a rocketlauncher that always hits Sonic as soon as he runs. Of course he never used it after it worked perfectly for one episode. And now, right up at the big final confrontation in the final episode, Robontik always has traps that Sonic can defeat by running fast. Urghh..
The big epic showdown of Robotnik I've been looking forward since episode 1, and it ends up being a stupid tube where Sonic just runs away from.
Rotor is awesome: He is.
The other freedom fighters: Hey, remember when I said season 1 had great use of red shirts? Well, Season 2 doesn't.
I really HATE the final episode of SAT am. And I'm not referring to the cliffhanger. The whole episode sucks. After building the other freedom fighters like Arie and the wolves up for several episodes, they're immediatly arrested, powerhouse characters like Bunny barely have a cameo, Robotnik's final showdown is laughable, the climax with the powerstone is confusing, not to mention painfull deus ex machina ish. Ghah. But hey, at least there's plenty of WACKY and HILARIOUS Antoine antics. Cause we didn't get enough of that.
Oh no, Swatbots!: Our friends the swatbots again. This one confused me as hell when I was 10 years old. Which was back in season 1, let alone how painfull this trope is in season 2.
One moment we see Sonic destroy 500 swatbots with one lame pun, the next moment they're all " OMG SWATBOTS WE MUST RUN!!!!"
Why? I just saw Sonic destroy 50 swatbots by just holding up a mirror. Do it again! In season 2, Sonic can turn into a giant tornado to take out entire armies of the damn things. And I'm still supposed to be on the edge of my seat if a single Swatbot politely asks Sonic to surrender himself for 10 minutes straight?

Both.
Mainly due to

B.) The terrible re-design
C.) THE CATCHPHRASE AIN'T FUNNY. :-|

Why not? Sally's pretty much the american Amy.
On the SATam DVD box set, on the early storyboards they practically drew Sally as Amy. And she had pink fur in her early cameo at the previous Sonic series.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I suppose your correct.;o I count sally as the unofficial amy.I just love the crazed fangirl rants "AWMGAWWD Sallyxsonic forevar they ar so official 1111111"
"Actually,amy has been confirmed as the official love interest for sonic by sega and sally is not an official character of the sonic franchi..."
"DHGBJKCHJFKDHBFHUKFK GO DIE IN A HOLE!"
"..........."
I've actually had AWESOME conversations with people about this.It brings me much happiness and fun.

Err, they're both from seperate contuity's, so they aren't comparable, or "official" or "onofficial".
Ah well, shipping fights. Pointless in trying to be right or wrong in that.
The only thing that bothers me is when Amy's counted as one of Sonic's newer side characters, even tough she's older then Knuckles, and arguably Tails.
And Sally.

I mean official as in Sega.I always find shipping fights hilariously overdramatic.It's like people practically go to war.Amy is a super old character.OwO

Gotta juice like a spruce moose on the loose.
Antione was WAY too overplayed in the 2nd season, which honestly wouldn't have been too bad if he had some characterization out of being a pussy. The ending of the final ep was upon retrospect pretty silly, though I always felt that the list of freedom fighters was supposed to be expanded upon, despite that ep being considered their most important mission. After all, they would have more to accomplish even AFTER Robotniks defeat.
I'd like to see another cartoon series. Not an anime one, a cartoon one.

Well, I guess I should give the final episode a bit of slack since it wasn't meant to be the finale, but it's STILL a big game changing episode.
From episode 1, it's a show about teamwork, learning about responsility and the bond between people in desperate times.
Having such a key episode that'd bring a whole new dynamic to the series if it continued to be entirely about a random deus ex machina item introduced 3 episodes in advance is still lame.
Reminds me of the Harry Potter finale, after many books of carefully creating a vast universe filled with interesting characters and themes, all of them are either dropped, randomly killed off or get a brief cameo and a pat on the head, while I'm suddenly supposed to care about some deadly hallow mc guffins introduced halfway trough the last book to save the day.

Once again that Triple Trouble movie I made you do comes back again.lol Who knew it'd be such a clever thing to do.XD
Great observations. I love the exaggerated models you used especially for Sonic. Also there was not enough annoying Ant montage, it needs more. I never watched past Season 1 so I only noticed that to me it was better there without the addition of all these useless characters.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, I don't like making jokes about the obvious.
Besides, I hate Antoine for being an attention hog already, no need to give him more spotlight.
You already hated him in season 1? There, he was at least....well, just a cowardly and unhelpfull team member.
In season 2 he's practically the freedom fighter's main messenger/soldier/ Secret agent, constantly getting every confidental and ultra important mission, despite being twice as useless as in season 1.
It's the most infuriating and stupid thing imaginable, I can't make a single analogy for that that comes even close to comparison.
Even the American army joined by Superman, Duke Nukem and Chuck Norris sending out Charmy the bee out to stop an incoming nuclear bomb is more sensable.

It reminds me of some of those games where the playable character does everything, even though they have a team with them!

You mean Metal Gear Solid, or worse, the rare times Zelda does a pathetic job in trying to be more large scaled?

Well we have the LOTR the Return of the King game on Pc and even though you have allies with you, you alone have to kill all the orcs!

Ah, Return of the King.
All I remember is me and my pal laughing for hours when the game opened with movie footage and then morphed into the in-game engine.
usually I don't care for good graphics at all, but that was a hilariously bad decision.
But yeah, I remember what you're talking about.

Lol! Yeah!
Cool animation by the way!

Swatbots I suppose are vulnerable to the inverted ninja theory. The more Swatbots there are, the weaker they become, thus how Sonic can pwn several at once, but ONE swatbot will cause a disaster!
...
That or lazy writing.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Lazy writing because I've seen the inverse hapen as well, Sonic fighting one swatbot or being scared of a group of them.
The main problem is that Sonic destroys swatbots too easely.
if only most of these fights were animated with a bit more OOMPH, Sonic needing more then one hit to destroy a swatbot and having more close calls in getting hit, I'd buy the more tense scenes.
But the fact remains that whenever Sonic destroys these guys, it's with barely any effort at all.

Suddenly I have the urge to see a Sonic arcade game held in the SatAm canon. o.0 I dunno why but I can't stop thinking of Sonic being in an arcade beat em up against swatbots!

should be an easy game then.

the same thing happens in most of the comics. The freedom fighters get a whole bunch of backround characters and it ends with Sonic doing most of the work anyway.

Pff, maybe from this day forward I refuse to call him Sonic, but call him Gary Stue the hedgehog instead.

I just noticed that the music sounds very simmilar to the Back to the Future theme.
And there was a bit where I thought the animation was looping but it was just for an alternate ending.
I probably haven't seen this cartoon since I was a kid so probably saying "Gotta Juice" as slang for running away probably wont work today.As a sexual innuendo however......
Man, if Sonic can take down Robots that easily maybe he could be of help taking down SKYNET XD.
And when I hear Bunnie talking I would hear Chuckie from Rugrats.
Good job mate.

Huh, I guess the Sonic SATAM soudntrack sounds close to Back to the future theme.
