It's still being made. If you google sonic fan film, you should be able to find 3 different trailers. One of them is voiced by Jaleel White, or "Urkel" as you know him.

I totally agree Mr. Bekkler. I would like to get this jump started somehow and if it gets blocked, it gets blocked. Nevertheless, I would like to get official backing for the event if that was possible. Let's not play devil's advocate on this issue though. There are authorized fan films. If anybody have connections or solid contact info, I'm interested in knowing more. No more on negative implications please.
Preliminary script for the movie is about 1/3 finish, but would like to form a crew. Haven't had any PMs for volunteers yet, but I'm interested in voice acting and machinima animators for now.

A fan film would be ambitious, hence why starting earlier the better. I doubt Mr. Toriyama himself would even care for several reasons. On the top of my head, he's retired (not 100% confirmed), Japanese authors practically endorse this stuff (look up doujinshi), and using a particular art style isn't patented (see Fairy Tail vs One Piece).
That aside, fan films are stepping on a gray area. However, I mentioned in my earlier post, are legal in several angles. We aren't making a rival game that is piggybacking off the success of CT. I'm interested in making a film promoting the sales of CT (this might be enough for SE to either not care, or even support it). I don't see Capcom trying to shut down megamanfilm dot com even though the movie is available for free since 2010 (they are even selling DVDs lol). Sega isn't trying too hard to block the Sonic film coming out. Heck, the original voice actor signed up to be Sonic...
I am looking for talented individuals that would humor me on this anniversary project (again it could not be a fan film, that's just my idea which I favor greatly). In particular: scenario writers, musicians, and machinima experts.

Okay, so maybe it's almost 3 years too early to celebrate this (March 11th, 2015), but it is the right time to think about starting a large scale awareness tribute. Something that would help immortalize the franchise. With the help of everyone here, maybe we can change the fate of this game. From a cult favorite, to a timeless classic recognized by all.
Obviously ROM hacking is out of the question as it'll get shut down, but I'm open to suggestions. My personal idea is to make a full length animated fan film on the main plot. I believe fan films have some legal protection if it is non-profit, under the guise of free advertisement for SE's product (can't sue for damages if it promotes sales, unlike a knockoff game).
Ideally, a way to contact SE to see if this could be official event would be nice, but that is unlikely unless someone can find an interested SE sponsor. I have some ideas for the film if there is enough interest, but would like to hear what the community thinks.
