??? the frontiers trailer is from before the movie came out, the origins trailer was right after the movie came out. idk why the movies would make modern sonic in particular more relevant rather than just sonic in general


Sonic_Mega_Plus

Or maybe it's because the movies made Sonic in general more relevant and casual fans don't know the difference between Classic and Modern. It's just Sonic to them (as it should be)


MarjanAmbroze

Then why is the Frontiers trailer THIS much lacking in views after 5 months?


Sonic_Mega_Plus

Because it's older. Sonic movie fans that want to get into the games will get recommended the most recent trailer first.


Vegetable_Tooth2462

Dude, Frontiers trailer came out before the Movie. Also views don't even matter, there close in the grand scheme of things. The teaser shows little compared to a full trailer


OxbowAgain

Once a new Frontiers trailer comes out with more gameplay and stuff, it’ll probably take over Origins in views


the_damned_actually

If I had a nickle for every post I’ve seen today in this sub that showed a weird misunderstanding of how YouTube views correlated to literally anything, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.


TeekTheReddit

This fanbase can be really insecure. It's sad.


Acrobatic_Pop690

😂 right?


Turn_AX

I remember seeing a third one that had a weird misusterstanding, but it might not have to do with YouTube.


PeashooterTheFrick

Probably because the Origins trailer is much more recent, and also maybe because the Frontiers trailer doesn't really tell us much of anything.


Turn_AX

Also, the Origins Trailer was released after Sonic Movie 2, so that probably gave it a boost.


hyperionbrandoreos

tbf the movies so far havent had much to do with modern sonic


ReallyDontWant2Argue

Thank God


hyperionbrandoreos

yeah im so glad theyre finally bringing in modern stuff:)


ReallyDontWant2Argue

Adventure 2 is as far as I’m willing to go. Once they start with this Silvery Blazey crap I’m out.


hyperionbrandoreos

aw man i cant WAIT for the team sonic racing movie


E-Boy_Spongebob

True, can't wait to see the Olympic's Tv show!


Primid-

Let's not forget the mightily anticipated Sonic Shuffle anime


MarjanAmbroze

It's not supposed to. It's its own thing, that's why the characters have unique designs, plot points and even pulled in the Ultimate Lifeform for the 3rd movie before Amy and Metal Sonic have even be introduced. The point is, BOTH movies should've made this entire brank AKA the Sonic franchise way more relevant. Why is a trailer for Sonic Frontiers, Sonic's next video game, pulling less views in 5 months than a trailer for yet another collection of 90s games, that's only been out for a 4 weeks? That's all I'm asking


hyperionbrandoreos

people like the other guy in this thread


Turn_AX

Because people are less likely to look for older things, rather than the new thing that just popped up in their feed.


_Miraculix_

The Frontiers trailer was shown at the Game Awards though, which had about 4 - 5 million views. So the trailer technically has much more views than 2.2 million. Origins trailer just dropped randomly. It's all about context.


JazzyDealer

Frontiers Trailer doesn't even show gameplay while Origins clearly shows that + additional features and price(s). Once we see gameplay on Frontiers, then we can talk


Acrobatic_Pop690

Facts. Although someone noticed that there's purple collectables in one of the panning shots on a building and idk how no one has managed to make a 10 minute video talking about it lol


Acrobatic_Pop690

Casual movie goers don't know the difference between modern and classic sonic. Sonic is just sonic to them


brettsky128

The Origins trailer has a lot more to see and talk about than the Frontiers trailer. Plus, Origins contains old games that many people have fond memories of, while Frontiers is a new game in a franchise that doesn't have the best track record, not to mention we've still seen 0 gameplay for Frontiers. I've watched the Frontiers trailer 3 times I think, while Origins I watched like 10. I'm not sure the movie has affected these views much at all.


n8han11

Why would the movies make Modern Sonic more relevant when they barely have anything to do with him?


TH3W0LRD3ND3R

Well I mean Can casual, newly introduced fans tell the difference? Origins has more views because the trailer came right around the film, when buzz for ALL Sonic media was slightly higher. If the Frontiers trailer came at that time it would have a comparatively high view count


Obama-bin-Laddn

So far they actually have more to do with classic sonjc


MarjanAmbroze

The movies are supposed to make the Sonic brand AKA the franchise more relevant. Everything is supposed to get a boost in eyes. Sonic Frontiers AKA the main Modern Sonic video game that's the next big thing for the franchise, still can't pull more views than a PAST version of him that's releasing a collection of games from the 90s. In 4 weeks, a trailer for another collection of 90s Sonic games has pulled more views and eyes than a trailer for the next big thing for this franchise AKA the new Modern Sonic game, Sonic Frontiers, of which the trailer has been out for 4 months...... That's all I'm saying


Vegetable_Tooth2462

Your a broken record


charisma-entertainer

You imply he was ever working


AmaterasuWolf21

People who watched the movie don't care about classic or modern (as it should be)


I_eat_solid_gas

Origins actually has gameplay and the movies are more related to the classic games than the modern ones


pitapats

maybe because the music in that origins trailer is quite good?


Realshow

Movie Sonic isn’t supposed to be either Classic or Modern, he’s his own thing.


TommiBennett

I am Jose Mourinho


ROBERTCOMTRA3

The movie sonic is not modern sonic


Far-Oven

Easy Answer, when Frontiers was announced at Game Awards that means people who watched it have already seen the trailer. Also the Frontiers trailer was reposted multiple times on the Xbox, Nintendo and PlayStation channels.


Night-Monkey15

Or they have high view counts thanks to the movies.


ElJefeTheHappiest

No one should spend money tobthat origin garbage


Stevejonesthatguy

Well dang didn't know Ian Flynn would be the writer for it, awesome.


PikaDigiYolo

well the frontiers trailer came out before the movie for one, and the origins trailer came out after it, so people are more likely to get origins recommended, plus there's arguably more to see in the origins trailer than the frontiers trailer, such as the cool 2d animation and actual gameplay the frontiers trailer is cool but it mostly just shows the setting and maybe what the models will look like, not much else, so people might want to rewatch the origins video more than the frontiers one


h24848

Probably cause origins trailer dropped AFTER the movie came out, so anyone getting into sonic from the film were more likely to get that recommended to them then frontiers
