Super Mario Movie Thread

**Lock Jaw** · 11-30-2022, 10:08 AM

I'm torn with whether or not they should have gone with this "fish out of water" "origin story", or whether they should have just skipped it all. On one hand we all know who Mario is, and the stranger in a strange land learning how to be a hero story is played out..... on the other hand this is the first time we are seeing this world in this form so it is a way to easily introduce things....

But I think it would have been cool to take the approach of the later games, where everyone already knows Mario and kind of worships him as an amazing hero/adventurer/role model. The movie would then just be one of his adventures.
