I'm actually kind of hoping for that outcome.
From what I've seen of the trailers and how his plot could possibly work given this setup, the best this movie can hope for is to be a solid origin story for Dr Robotnik.
30 minutes of Sonic backed up by the remainder being that sounds like it could actually work, and would be better than a solid hour of buddy comedy with the hedgehog.
... while typing that last sentence I remembered the crime that occurred as the final spoken segment of the trailer, which instead of showing the Sonic model had a room full of humans making an event that sounds like it might have been intended as a joke. Which gives the much worse possibility that this is the random cop story, featuring Sonic and Dr Robotnik. Given how I cannot even express how bad that dialogue exchange was to watch, that is the worst possible outcome, and as this is a piece of bad Sonic media probably also the most likely.
