The success of Sonic The Hedgehog after the disasterous first trailer could tell Hollywood that listening to fan feedback can turnaround a sure flop. How could this impact the industry?

With a $60M+ opening all but assured, Sonic The Hedgehog has gone from a punchline to an actual hit - entirely due to a last-minute delay and total character redesign. It's an incredible redemption, and a huge win for the power of fan feedback.

And as with all Hollywood success stories, it's very likely the move motivates other studios to do the same - as well as galvanizing fans the next time a movie makes a less-than-perfect first impression.

How do you see this impacting moviemaking going forward? Should studios be more reliant on fan feedback? Or is this a one time miracle?
