The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023)

Wait, this threads still getting posts?

I've known about this thing since 2018. My statements on the movie has since remained the same because all we know about the movie has largely remained the same.
 
Oh that's obvious, I don't mean just inject a game plot into the movie I just mean. Take inspiration. Don't spend the full movie on the same story-beats we know happens every Tuesday in the Mario world. Do something that Mario fans haven't seen before, in the same vein that some of the RPGs do. Subvert expectations, and not with random dance numbers, pop culture references and toilet jokes. Although given it's illumination, that may already be the expectation.

It's the first Mario big budget (as much as these movies are a big budget for this company) animated film. It's gonna more or less hit the beats you'd expect it to.

Even the Sonic movie despite setting it on earth was about Sonic defeating Eggman and saving the world.
 
I'm probably expecting the movie to change the Mario plot and, you know, give us something original.
I don't know about Illumination though...
Their movies....
They don't suck but, there pretty mediocre.

Their, they're....

I normally don't point out errors but the ones you made are genuinely a pothole for me.

First we had this banner on the left in the Los Angeles Tour of Mario Kart Tour at the end of July:

Now we have Foreman Spike in the movie… did Nintendo rediscover Wrecking Crew all of a sudden?

EDIT: In any case, it's always good when they bring up obscure characters in the universe, hopefully we'll have more surprises like this one.

I'm pretty hyped for this movie
It'll prolly be a basic film that will probably be really safe but it will also probably be a fine time
 
Another leak.
 
i do wonder what they'd make him look like however, either they'd modernize the old artwork or they'll give him a brand new design, which realistically speaking thatll probably happen
