Why You Should Watch It: Sonic the Hedgehog "finally" gets his "long-awaited" live-action movie debut. Uh, it could be good, OK? Stranger things have happened.

Why You'll Actually Watch It: Morbid curiosity is very much the order of the day here. Pretty much everything we know about the movie is bizarre and eyebrow-raising, and honestly, Sonic the Hedgehog could end up being a so-bad-it's-good delight on the level of the 1993 Super Mario Bros. movie.

As if having a CGI Sonic interact with actual humans isn't odd enough, Parks and Rec's Ben Schwartz will voice the titular gaming icon, and Jim freaking Carrey will star as a live-action version of Dr. Robotnik. Yup.

If Sonic ends up a major box office success, it goes without saying that much of that money will come from ironic audiences who signed up for the weirdest blockbuster disaster of 2019.
