The only real thought process that I have is ‘If it doesn’t make me laugh, it won’t make anyone laugh.’” In short order, her YTPs started garnering attention.

“I will normally just throw a bunch of Sonic episodes into my video-editing software and then just see where it takes me. “When it comes to creating a video, I don’t really plan anything ahead,” Mari says. “Someone had vandalized a Wikipedia article to say something along the lines of ‘Check out the video Robotnik on the Toilet,’ and of course me being a curious teenager I decided to do exactly that,” she recalled. Mari’s introduction to the format is a tale as old as time. Her work almost always uses the Sonic series, which is a potent source of material thanks to its “over-the-top” voice acting and “great and incredibly lazy animation.” The YouTube Poop artist Stegblob, otherwise known as Mari, describes her videos this way: “An episode of Sonic but every time something happens, something else happens instead.” Clips often stutter or repeat, swapping between video sources with little internal logic, and often recontextualizing cheaply produced childrens’ entertainment in confusing or profane ways.

Many YouTube Poop videos have common sources: old cartoons or commercials, among them, the mid-’90s animated TV series Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. They can often be disconcerting and aggressively alienating (the use of intentionally harsh-sounding audio in YTP is known as “ear rape”). The videos often lack plot or story arcs, and instead are more like freestyle video remixing - creating a work that evokes a feeling more than a coherent narrative or thought.
YTP videos are difficult to define, but the general mode is to take existing media and distort it, editing clips so that it appears that characters are saying things that they did not or altering the meaning of scenes. In the mid-aughts, one of the most popular types of video on YouTube, alongside vloggers and makeup tutorials and comedy skits, was known as YouTube Poop. Nowadays, YouTube is a meme’s last stop before the graveyard. It is one of the best-known Sonic memes and a genuine YouTube-born phenomenon, from back in the days when YouTube could launch a meme. Pingas is the end result of a more ancient internet-content cycle, one that chewed up pop culture and mashed it into something unrecognizable and inexplicable.

Will the movie be any good? Will the newly redesigned Sonic, which forced the film to be delayed for a couple of months, be worth the wait? Are we going to get to see iconic sidekick Tails? Perhaps most crucially, fans are wondering: Will Jim Carrey, as the evil Doctor Robotnik, say the word “pingas”? Making a sonic movie with no backing from a major studio backing must have been a logistical nightmare and yes there are better fan films (batman city of scars the first to come to mind) but i still think this film is worth you're time the film mixes plot lines from sonic sat-am and the sonic adventure games and while most video game movies do this to their disadvantage this movie feels a lot more natural and it immerses you in it's world pretty well Jaleel white does a pretty good job reprising his role of sonic and his acting is still on par with the video game voices the cast are pretty decent even though they don't get much time to appear and i wouldn't be upset with a sequel to see these guys in further detail and the cameos of James Rolfe ,doug walker and other internet celebrities while random did feel apt and wen't too forced most of the negative comments centre around the c.g.i which does leave a lot to be desired especially in the last act but i liked the c.g.i on the e-102 gammas and egg carriers and sonic is pretty good and lets face it c.g.i in Hollywood looks rubbish these days anyway and with the resources put to them makes an at least decent looking sonic sonic is one of my favourite games but even i can admit his games have fallen on hard times but i wouldn't include this film in the mix.When the Sonic the Hedgehog movie lands in theaters this Friday, longtime fans will have many questions on their mind.
