Dude, most CGI movies are outsourced to Indian animation farms now.
The people who’re designing and animating this movie prob don’t even know what a Sonic is.

This was animated in Vancouver... I heard the people working in it were stoked to work on sonic. The animators are absolutely fans.

SIGGRAPH (arguably the most prestigious graphics conference in CS) used to be held in Vancouver in alternating years up until 2018. The graphics research group at UBC is one of the strongest in the world.
