our theater for sonic 3 was exclusively children except for me and my brothers and, inexplicably, one solo 70 year old man. i cannot stop thinking about him so i drew him with shadow the hedgehog. i hope he liked the movie #sonic - ThreadSky

Hopefully, the man sees this amazing art, people 70+ are always on borrowed time, so they should be granted all the happiness they can get.

I should draw my great grandfather as a mobian now

I love this for him

I saw Sonic Night of the Werehog at Joypolis several years ago. It was me and a bunch of parents with their children. Several of the parents kept giving me weird looks.

How did you know he was 70

Love the art

retquits.bsky.social•52 days ago

thank you!

the boring answer is that he looked older than my 60+ year old parents 😌👍

retquits.bsky.social•48 days ago

That man is an icon and I love him

my theater was mostly empty save for 2 families and a lone adult. I screamed when I saw the post credits and they were sitting behind us and later said it was okay. They were so friendly I wish I could talk to them again

junopom.bsky.social•52 days ago

oh my god the movie was incredible though. might go back Friday tbh

retquits.bsky.social•52 days ago

it was SO good, i wanna see it again too. i don’t see many movies in theater but this one was reaaaally nice on a big screen 🥹!

This is so cute!

lavenderberrybee.bsky.social•52 days ago

It’s adorbs!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻💕💕

kubiparfait.bsky.social•52 days ago

That is amazing. Love that for him.

kittixy.bsky.social•52 days ago

It's so cute lol 🥺 I hope you like movie too

mahzes.bsky.social•52 days ago

Was he even there with any kids or clearly just there by himself?

retquits.bsky.social•51 days ago

he was there 100% by himself. walked in alone, sat alone in a fully empty row, and walked out alone. he’s my hero

mahzes.bsky.social•51 days ago

Wow, that’s amazing

We need to find him and invite him into various social circles like now

mahzes.bsky.social•51 days ago

Unless he’s already among us and we just don’t know

I went to see Sonic 3 on Boxing day, noticed there was only one other person booked in the front row, was asked if I minded, said not at all as I figured it was for the OG fans. 1/2

esk8jaimes.bsky.social•49 days ago

Get this, the other person beside me was a guy in their 70's! Like me they were struggling to stay awake, but wasn't sure if they were genuinely interested in this film or just wanted somewhere to go. Either way, it was good to see us share that moment. 😌 2/2

osha.tgirl.gay•52 days ago

I like the idea of him not having any clue what Sonic actually is but his grandkids keep talking about how cool it is and he decided to just go check what the hype is all about himself.

sherlockwithoutabs.bsky.social•52 days ago

Having worked in a theater there's a very good chance this is spot on.

retquits.bsky.social•52 days ago

🥹💛 that’s such a cute thought

rightturnonly.bsky.social•51 days ago

I have a friend who is 93 and has seen every single movie released in the movie theater she owns since 1959. She is fascinating and wonderful

afternoonkittea.bsky.social•52 days ago

That's so wholesome!

savagefrog.bsky.social•52 days ago

Wonder what his story is.

retquits.bsky.social•52 days ago

my personal hope is that he was just a really big sonic fan 🥹

savagefrog.bsky.social•51 days ago

Could be!

thejestercrow.bsky.social•52 days ago

Elder Furry with over 760 sonic fanfiction stories and 268 commissioned pieces of fan art on Furaffinity. He & three buds were originally scheduled to attend but one had a sudden medical appointment, the second had a family obligation, and Bob? he just no-showed cuz that's how he is; always has been

savagefrog.bsky.social•51 days ago

That would be crazy

zfireart.bsky.social•52 days ago

Man..

antigoneinthebes.bsky.social•52 days ago

It was cold outside, and all the kids seemed to have fun. Never had any kids myself - Margaret couldn't, and we found happiness by ourselves. Of course now that she's gone, only Sonic the Hedgehog movies remain.

mattheww1991.bsky.social•52 days ago

I want to believe this guy played Sonic in the early 90's when was 40 and it just really struck a chord.

foxhack.bsky.social•51 days ago

But... the game isn't that old...

when I went to see the first sonic movie in theaters there was only one other couple and they had to be in their 70s-80s. When we left the theater at the end one turned to the other and said excitedly "did you see how cute tails was" it was the cutest thing iv ever seen

tytofi.bsky.social•52 days ago

People may become elderly, but their love for Sonic never goes away💙

retquits.bsky.social•52 days ago

omg this is going to make me cry, like yeah!! they’re right!! tails was SO cute…!!! 😭😭😭

spacedinosaur2000.bsky.social•52 days ago

I hope he knows how cool shadow is

retquits.bsky.social•51 days ago

idk how anyone could walk out of that movie and not think shadow is the coolest

esk8jaimes.bsky.social•49 days ago

Agreed!
