Sonic: Sticks/Tropes


 * Adaptational Angst Update: The film potrays Sticks' paranoia as the result if living in the jungle out of fear of Eggman finding her, and her gatred of technology being a response to a traumatic experience in childhood regarding Eggman experimenting on her.
 * Adaptation Expansion: The film delves into Sticks' past and shows her and Team Sonic's first meeting, both of which were never shown before.
 * Establishing Character Moment: Sonic's first scene has him runming around, cracking jokes, and playfully racing with Tails, establishing as cocly and friendly.
 * Mythology Gag:
 * Sonic's first scene features Sonic and the Black Knight 's "Knight of the Wind".
 * Sticks believes Eggman can hear her througth trees, cal ling back to Gnarly's paranpia about trees in Sonic Primes.
 * Upon meeting Sticks and realizing she never heard of hi m, Somic calls himself "the fastest thing alive", hoping she would recognize the nickname.
 * Sticks calls Tails' two-tails a "buttcopter", like Sonic did in his second live-action film.
 * When Sticks meets Amy, she qccidentally calos her "Sally".
 * Nightmare Fuel:
 * The film delves into the process of animals being used as batteries for Eggman's Badniks, and hell, its really creepy. Imagine being stuck insode a killing machine whike your body is connected to cables that drain your life force while you are consciouss.
 * Eggman, as in live-action, is more depraved than usual thwn in thevgames. Not only he proofs himself to be geniunely intimidating in some scenes, but he isn't above using children to power his Badniks.
 * The scene where a young Sticks hides herself from the Badniks is quite unnerving, and ripped straight from a slasher film. The moment where Sticks mistakes a Buzzy Bomber with an animal can provide quite a Jump Scare.
 * The Other Darrin: Jessica DiCicco replaces Nikita Futterman as the voice of Sticks.
 * Role Reprise: Aside from DiCicco, most of the film's vast us compised by the characters' current game voice actors.
 * Tearjerker: In this film, Sticks has been living in the woods, fearing for her life, for 13 years.
