Sonic X really follows so many anime cliches that it's painful to watch...granted, anything related to 4Kids is eminently painful, but it sucks worse when you know that there's so much better that can be done with Sonic. X really just is a show that's very much directed at a REALLY young crowd, and also has the added detriment of including much of what makes the newer Sonic games suck, such as a confusing, bungled mess of side characters.
SU...as a rule, almost any action cartoon with songs sung in the middle of each episode is bound to suck. I give them points for actually trying a couple cool things with the premise, though, such as having Robotnik appeal to the aristocratic class, or introducing Knuckles and Athair.
I loved Adventures as a kid, though; always watched it before I got up to get ready for school. No, it doesn't hold up 100%, but Long John Baldry ruled, and the episodes now make for GREAT YouTube Poops.

I've watched 3 episodes of SatAM in the years since it got canned (all last week actually) so I don't have much to compare the others to. I've watched about one episode of Sonic X and it just seemed like the plot seemed like a conversion of a game level, not surprisingly. Never seen AoSTH. Do you get the impression that I'm not one for watching lots of cartoons?
Now I have actually seen the movie, a few times actually, since I have it on VHS. Not very impressive. I have to agree with a much earlier comment that Tails has a shocking cold throughout the movie. Oh and there's Sara and her mindless father. Why? Please tell me this is the only occurance of those two. The Old Man was pathetic, so pathetic that I didn't mind him because he was kind of funny Then there is the inconsistency with the summary on the back of the case which says Sara promises to marry Sonic if he saves them. I don't remember her saying that (thank goodness, I never though he'd stoop that low ).
