BONUS: Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie OVA (1996)

To celebrate a year of Show Me The Movies, Justin and Nic decided to break open a memory solidified in amber and talk about 'Sonic The Hedgehog: The Movie' (not to be confused with 2020’s Sonic The Hedgehog). Throughout their conversation, they estimate just how many times they watched the library’s VHS copy as kids, discuss the very strange biology of echidnas, and explore a few of the deep dark corners of the Blue Blur’s fan culture.
