Saturn has twin rings? I don't know what method they use for their space trips, but its not something I need to think about here.
Whats ambitious about a sudden scene switch of the Earth in view? There are no explanations I can think of to cover for this, because there is no legit reason for these cuts, using the this segment as any kind of timeframe is unquantifiable.
Far as I recall it's the only gas giant on our Solar System with rings, unless that fight took place on a different star system.
The animation in the scene right before the Earth was in view that shows the flight from a first person perspective apparently being interpreted as time / distance skips is fairly ambiguos it seems... I mean to even lead someone to make such assumptions in the first place.
The feat is not unquantifiable if there's a cinematic timeframe to work with, which is something only the narration or word of god could dispute.

Sonic and megaman ftw. Overall better, just better.
I'm withholding an opinion on the outcome of this thread until I know what's in play.
Mario is not multiversal >:[
@stargun: I'm not really getting why its hard to believe that chunks are being skipped when we can see it happening, several times in the vid the POV skips forward and when we see normal forward motion approaching Earth the POV is not advancing at anything close to lightspeed.
It is unless theres a reason for the skips despite showing forward motion when not skipping.
Upon approaching the Earth they also seemed to be moving a lot slower than when they flew away from that gas giant, it's far more simplistic to just conclude they were accelerating at first and then progressively slowing down during the trip for whatever reason.
Sorry but to say the scene was jumping ahead in time sounds like a blatantly unfair and unecessary assumption, there's no way I'd consider going that path, ever. So with that in mind I rest my case.
This whole discussion is sorta off topic anyways.
Giving it one last shot just to leave my points better explained;

And both of those weren't close to lightspeed either.
Originally posted by stargunI only said faster than when arriving on Earth, top speeds got to be achieved when they crossed all that distance in seconds. Say when that peculiar animation shows up.

Its not an assumption when nothings being assumed; the scene is cutting parts out so we cant use it as a timeframe.
Originally posted by stargunStuff like subtitles or a voice telling us what's happening.
In cases like this the only way an accelerated passage of time could be verified is through narrator's input, otherwise cinematic time is the default.
Cept that it makes little sense that they would slow to those speeds from light-speed, less if it was actually a short time. That and how they'd accelerate from the speed they were at up to light-speed when they were both unconscious (Not sure about Blue, but Evilguy was out before Earths atmosphere burnt him up).
We dont need someone to tell us what we can see. Maybe something could confirm one way or another, but a lack of means nothing. If the scene needs further evidence to say whats happening, what we have now would in fact be unquantifiable. And I don't think we've ever just used a default 'why not' in these situations.

Provided Link was backed with the Master Sword, and some other key gear, I believe he'd smite Sonic after a few boughts, charges and spin attacks.Mario Versus Megaman though.. That would be a fight to remember.
You pathetic harlot, mewling like a whore.
Bend over, I'm here to sling some dick.
