Give it to me straight. Is the new Mario Bros movie going to be any good? Shigeru is a producer but who knows how little he’s involved
Give it to me straight. Is the new Mario Bros movie going to be any good...

not some sort of 10/10 movie of the year but its probably gonna follow in the footsteps of Detective pikachu, so a comfy 6-7/10 movie. Fun to watch, but people will go on and off about "m-muh deepest lore"
still not falling for the videogame curse tho
Carter Davis
Ok , someone post the greentext of the movie trailer made in Yea Forums. Thank you
Luke Martin
it's french so there might be a sexy Peach moment.

No. Mario games are fun as fuck but they're complete nonsense. It's one of the worst Nintendo franchises to make a movie for

Miyamoto cant make a good game to save his life, let alone direct a movie
Jacob Bell
Was the Grinch really the best movie by that studio? Fuck, I thought this had hope.
Christopher Young
I’m one of the writers and it’s gonna be good. Mario sand Bowser have to team up to beat a new villain - Gonald Gump, an evil businessman who buys the mushroom kingdom and wants to turn it into a giant casino for his rich friends - the Thuglicans.
Lots of little references to real world events. Like Peach’s castle is renamed Fart-a-Lotto.

All of illumination creative team is French, it's merely based in the USA because they know your country don't buy foreign products.

Producers tend to be very involved. Executive Producers are the "We just wanted their name to be on it" position.
Michael Hughes
>Shigeru is a producer
Shigeru hasn't done anything good with mario since the 64 era so that isn't really a plus
he's just went NO NEW IDEA BAD U MAKE MARIO TOO HARD
Henry Morales
Reminder that no matter how bad it is it will still be better than Sonic's movie

This. Trusting a man who stripped Paper Mario of all it's good qualities, namely the story and character, with a movie about Mario, which is a narrative endeavour, is foolhardy at best. He's just going to make a generic plot with Mario rescuing Peach from Bowser and Illumination will fill the runtime with their cringe humor. Obviously Nintendo cheaped out by specifically settling for Illumination because they're a cheapo animation studio that churns out normie schlock for cheap, they don't want to tell a good story for the fans they just want to expand the IP. Time will tell if it will bite them in the ass, but it's looking pretty likely.

As vivid as ever.
Christian Jones
Nah, Despicable Me is their best movie, which is not much of an improvement.
Jonathan Cox
Please leave, you're not funny
Kevin Green
Thanks

IS was the one that stopped trying, look at Odyssey where they introduce more new species and inhabitants than they do existing enemies. Even Odyssey Toads have personalities, and hell, they have hats too.
David Diaz
The first Despicable Me movie was good.
Mostly because they kept the Minions to a minimum and focused more on other characters.
Justin Jackson
Miyamoto had a hand-offs approach to Odyssey.
Before 2017 he was sticking his hand in everything and bossing people around. He specifically told IS to make SS the way it was. There is no misinterpreting here. And since he had no say in Odyssey and Koizumi took over then of course it will be more original.
Dominic Cooper
He said "stick to the mario cast" not change everything to toads, which is Miyamoto's least favorite mario character. Likely because the designs for Super Paper Mario were atrocious and he wanted something more traditional.
You can blame tanabe for that.
Kayden Martinez
Nah, but expect Wario (maybe Luigi, as a reference of that comic) dressed as Peach.

Given his views on telling stories in the Mario games, I fail to see how this is supposed to be a point in the movie's favor.
