I hope some parents tell Little Jimmy they can't see Mario because they don't like the voice actor playing Mario.

The weirdest thing about them not using Martinet to voice Mario is that he is in the movie voicing another role...

Hes in the movie out of respect. Also the idea that this is for adults is absurd

I want to hate it. I really want to because fuck Illumination; but, damn it, this is the kind of shit that would've blown my stupid little 10-year old mind back in the day. Plus, they included the tanooki suit, so you can see the bind I'm in.

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. |

This is the thing in films now, and has been for a long time. People need an origin story nowadays, or they feel "confused" or "robbed" or something dumb. I think it's weird they worked in the "levels", but it'll be interesting to see how that works out. Thoughts: * Mushroom Kingdom under threat (unknowingly at first) by Bowser * Bowser starts Bowser Games, or some shit (this is where the game levels, and go karts come in). * Last minute victory * Ending spoiled last minute (or post-credits) to set up Doki Doki |

Getting strong “Marvel vibes” from these trailers. The first one had scenes very reminiscent of the opening scene of Infinity War. I think this looks fun. Can I get my 4-year-old daughter in to Mario in time for release?

Maybe the movie will be the thing that gets her into Mario.

See, that's a clever way of working in the gameplay and a nice middle finger to naysayers who like to point out that you can't incorporate elements from a game because it doesn't work in another medium. Yes, doing a whole movie with nothing but platforming would have been a recipe for disaster, but tweaking the concept into something like this isn't as eye-rolling.

It was OK for what it was. The only other two properties from Nintendo that could work as films, mainly because there's a bit more meat to their stories, is The Legend of Zelda and Metroid. Of course, with Zelda you'd have to delve into the moral dilemma of whether or not Link speaks.

Took my 4-year-old daughter to see it. I really enjoyed it. It was a bit flimsy in places but you’ve got to “leave stuff on the table” for a sequel. The 90 minute runtime is great for the younger viewers.
