@Prince R.
The second trailer (design issue aside) actually did make the movie look better, and funnier then the previous trailer.
Green Hill Zone looked beautiful especially.

Yeah… Some claim STC’s adaptations were more accurate then Archie’s, but I honestly disagree… (Especially, with Archie’s later issues which were pretty accurate.)
Archie’s Sonic Adventure adaptation, despite it’s problems at least had a more accurate Perfect Chaos, and such.
(It’s surprising Sega of Europe didn’t care about that.)

Yeah, in fact, STC was actually much more darker, and edgier then the Archie or SatA.M. series ever was. In fact, STC is basically considered the darkest official Sonic canon.
Some prefer it, because of that, but I think it just lacked the whimsy, the heart, and humor the other canons had.
I also wasn’t too big on most of STC’s OCs… Johnny Lightfoot, and Porker Lewis just didn’t seem as likeable, or amusing as Sally, the Freedom Fighters, or the game characters to me. Robotnik’s lacky Grimer was just a more Grinch-looking version of Snively, only not as amusing, and lacking the second-banana-with-motives Starscream-qualities that made Snively more interesting.
Plus some like the “Marxio Brothers” were kinda pure cringe. (They would’ve been ok for one gag issue, but they seriously made them recurring characters, and even had them part of the plotlines, and such. Archie at least usually ditched it’s lame gag characters, or made them more interesting.)
