10 Recent Movie Trailers That Totally Lied To You
2. Sonic the Hedgehog 3
The trailers for Sonic the Hedgehog 3 showed off a whole hell of a lot, though Paramount did manage to restrain themselves when it came to the final battle between Sonic (Ben Schwartz) and Shadow (Keanu Reeves).
The final trailer showed Shadow telling Sonic in the midst of their climactic fight, "You were right about one thing. This ends now," but the filmmakers opted to digitally alter the shot to only show Shadow in his usual form.
But as it turns out, Shadow actually says this line while in Super Shadow form in the movie itself.
Granted, it's hardly a shocker that we ended up seeing Sonic and Shadow in their Super forms during the final battle, but it's still nice to save something for when fans are sat down and watching the full movie for themselves, right?
Yet Sonic 3 is hardly the first film to digitally alter shots to throw audiences off the spoiler trail - the Marvel Cinematic Universe has basically mastered the art of this over the years, even cooking up shots specifically for the Avengers: Infinity War trailer that were never part of the movie.
