Mog Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 More plumber propaganda picking on a loving single dad raising 8(?) kids and successfully leading a loyal, dedicated, and DIVERSE group of troops and soldiers. Mario’s clearly the evil one here! Quote
Seto Kaiba Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 (edited) Wow, so Chris Pratt's Mario voice is just... regular-ass Chris Pratt voice. Having seen Super Mario Bros. in theaters as a kid my hopes were not high to begin with, but it's weirdly disappointing to hear Mario not sounding like the outrageous (but not entirely unrealistic) Italian stereotype Charles Martinet has been voicing since 1992. EDIT: In a way, it's even weirder to hear Mario having actual dialogue instead of just various reaction sounds. Edited October 7, 2022 by Seto Kaiba Quote
mikeszekely Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 I'll leave it to the rest of you curmudgeons to pick this apart, I'm going to take my daughter to see it in the theater. Quote
Bolt Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 My 10 year old son will want to see this. I showed him the trailer and he was incredulous. I imagine it won't be any great masterpiece. But anyone who was hoping for more doesn't have their head in reality. Quote

Of course, he winds up constantly pulling up another kingdom’s food supply to utilize as weapons, and uses Birdo’s future children as WMD’s against that poor mother. . . . Even in his dreams, he can’t escape his jerkface nature. Quote

Expand The movie is really about a plumber that was offered some pizza at one of his customers homes that had been using the wrong kinda shrooms as a topping. Now he thinks every pipe is a warp gate that leads to early retirement. along the way he’s fighting with dead turtles children had flushed while believing he was responsible for their deaths and their all led by his boss who in his mind is now some messed up cross between a turtle and a dragon and thinks his hot wife needs to be rescued from him and somehow his brother is trying to help him in his adventures. The whole time his brother is really trying to get him clean and it’s really a redemption story dealing with heavy addiction Quote

Seto Kaiba Posted October 9, 2022 Posted October 9, 2022 If nothing else, I have every confidence Jack Black's performance as Bowser will leave no piece of scenery free of toothmarks... which is 100% on-brand for Bowser. I am just NEVER going to get over the idea of Mario actually having dialog. Quote

Seto Kaiba Posted November 29, 2022 Posted November 29, 2022 It's beautifully animated... but my brain is never going to stop saying that the characters sound wrong after 30 years of Charlet Martinet's Mario. Quote
Mog Posted November 30, 2022 Posted November 30, 2022 Nice to see DK beat the stuffing out of Jerkface. 😆 That’s for all the pain he put Junior and him through! And could have swore Toad could pluck veggies out of the ground like nobody’s business. They ain’t just pretty faces. Quote
TangledThorns Posted November 30, 2022 Posted November 30, 2022 Yeah, gonna be a family day at the theater for this movie! Gonna skip the snack bar to save money this time, lol. Quote
