9:45 "The Kingdom relies on one man to function, and that man is a shortsighted moron." To be fair, that doesn't deviate very far from the source material.
Bowser actually doesn't do too badly for himself. He has managed to build a space program out of wood and masonry, and, while it's been tainted over the years, his original goal of capturing Peach had to do with her being the only person who can break his sorcery. Also, Bowser is a sorcerer. A sorcerer who can bench press his own castle.
@@SallinKari Game mechanics asides, when Mario isn't in the picture, there's hardly anyone else who can consistently keep Bowser at bay. Sure, there's a few others who could do it, but compared to the number of people across multiple Galaxies, it's a small number of people. Plus, given his army stole from Rosalina (twice, if you count both SMG1 & SMG2 seperately), who is from what we can tell a goddess, that's no small feat.
"Oppressor of the proletariat" - never thought I'd hear this line in a medium connected with Super Mario Bros. This film is a gift that keeps on giving.
i seem to remember some quasi communist propanda animation using Mario as a main character tho now i think about it was probably after this flim's release so nvm
@@ethericboy And "our" Gift and the English "gift" are derivations from the same proto-germanic word. The most common explanation is that the German nobles were so obsessed with poisened gifts for their assassination plots that "Gift" became an euphemistic word for "poison".

I know that arguably it is a bad movie, but… I don't think it is. Remove any nastalgia and pretend that Super Mario Bros. doesn't exist and it could actually hold up on it's own. At the very least, it's better than most of the video game adaptations that followed.
"In what universe is having dumber grunts better?" Pretty much every dictatorship. Dictators tend to appoint people less competent than themselves so that they don't have to worry about being outsmarted by their underlings. There's a term for it but I don't remember what it was.
Pretty much every democracy. In democracies, people tend to appoint people less competent than themselves so that they don't have to worry about being outsmarted by their underlings. Fixed.
Makes sense why G1 Megatron kept Starscream under his command...who ironically was a scientist that acted highly irrationally except sometimes and screwed up a lot. But at least no one would support him if he tried to overthrow Megatron.
I'd say they make a great candedate. For example, in district 12 the main (IE Only) industry is coal mining, which they do with manual tools, making it back breaking, high intensity work, which be nessessity requires a high calory diet, just to provide the fuel to do that kind of work and yet we are shown the people of District 12, as starving and desperate, to the point they are eating squirrels to survive. Surely, SOMEONE in the capitol, has the two braincells required, to realise this is not sustainable.
That sounds like a point, yup. I've only seen the first 2 Hunger games, but as soon as you mentioned it, I thought at the very least theirs is a system that guarantees rebellion, while ironically claiming they're preventing it. And I guess we can call them advanced because of the arena technology they use? Anyway, a re-watch is on the cards for me.
The Capitol displays advanced aircraft, holographic technlogy, genetic engineering, mag-lev train systems and the ability to make the most F**king ugly fashions known to mankind, not to mention the insane engineering that goes into the overly complex death traps, especially in the last movie. I'd say they qualify as being advanced technologically.
To add to this thread, the idea that Panem needs coal is kinda stupid. They produce electricity from the Hydro Dam in District 5, which is focused on power. Although district 12 is focused on mining so they may get other resources there such as copper, iron and so forth for other districts production. This idea of overlapping production is repeated with district 9 (Grain) and district 11 (agriculture).
How about the Cylons in the reimagined battlestar galactica? Their civilization has been a disaster waiting to happen. Destroy one ship and make the entire species extinct. Also: all cylons are one of twelve models.
the11382 Twelve?! And they want to kill all humans? I’d feel like I was in a non-living hell with only twelve other immortals to talk to at the end of war.
Schwarzer Ritter I know, but I didn’t want to spoil the final five. I stuck to what was shown in the web series and choose to be vague on everything else.
@@OsirisLord No, because in that universe non-avian dinosaurs didn't go extinct, so in that universe would be possible for some species of raptors or some other small theropods to evolve human level intelligence.
@@ExtremeMadnessX That's true but why would they turn into humans including evolving clearly mammalian features like mammary glands and hair. We've seen what the most intelligent dinosaurs evolved into after 65 million years in our universe and its birds and some birds are very intelligent.
What is ever more sad is that after getting rid of Kopa and the old king getting power back he did not then decide to attempt to integrate back to our world as Daisy implying a sequel at the end would mean they were still in their world where there was no water and little food.
I wonder how much better the Mushroom Kingdom Civilization from the games are, Peach is probably one of the most powerful characters in the games she can take out King Koopa in one wave of her hand if she wanted to. But hold her self back to give the hero something to do well Koopa takes over her bases. I guess Koopa Kingdom isn't much better,
Punctuating every sentence with a quote from Voyager or Jurassic Park gets a bit distracting and makes it hard to follow the main line of thought. Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.
I had that Jurassic Park quote all lined up, couldn't squeeze it in :p. And to be honest I did think it could be used to describe my editing. I know I went overboard this time. I can't not put a quote in when I find a place for it. However, I will try to reserve the interuptions for the end of each idea going forward, hopefully that will flow better.
To be honest i was mainly making this post so i could also squeeze in a JP quote. And what is genuine about my complaint probably comes mostly from my attention span which is worthy of my avatar (which, yes, is a squirrel doing cocaine)
Threeshades thanks for making that clear, but I still think you have a point. I had thought the same myself, but because I am so familiar with the script, it's impossible for me to analyse it objectively. In this case, once I'd found those great JP quotes, I just couldn't help myself. But I was planning on slightly pulling back on quotes going forward, or at least space them out a bit more. I'm guessing a quote after every line is a bit too much. This episode was kind of an experiment in that regard, I wanted to see how many interruptions people will tolerate. I'm not going to drastically change the formula whatever the case may be, but I need feedback so I can make a few tweaks.
I never understood this movie when we saw it in the theater...and there were less than ten of us watching it. I was even waiting for someone say "Sorry Mario but the princess is in another castle".
Don't forget that all the cars in this movie don't have brakes. Thats right. An entire civilization that has cars but not brakes. They even use aircraft carrier arresting hooks to stop the cars.
All you need to theoretically do to stop the Koopa threat is to use or weaponize cold. They need heat more than anything to survive being cold blooded creatures and all.
I can't believe you didn't mention the most improbably part - why would dinosaurs evolve to look human? Granted, we only have human actors to fill the roles, but remember that dinosaur sitcom tv show? Even that would would be more realistic.

The CGI was actually really good for 1993. This was like the first movie to use such a massive amount of CGI. We definitely take it for granted that animators can conjure up anything nowadays.
What about the First Order? Technically not a civilization but a top contender for your series, given how badly organized they are and how ridiculous it is that they manage to create their own high tech equipment including a death star clone several years after the fall of the Imperial Empire without anybody noticing. Somehow able to seize planets and have a big enough army to do it all.
Half-way (give or take) through this video I had something of an epiphany that I had never considered... What if the King's civilization was, actually, pretty decent? You present that this world is nigh-impossible to live in, but when you start to present the problems behind Koopa's management, there's no consideration that, really, Koopa has only been running things for the last 20 years or so. It doesn't change the bulk message that Koopa (and the civilization under his watch) really just doesn't work, but is it at least plausible that prior to Koopa overthrowing the former king that things weren't all that bad? If the city, itself, is Koopa's doing, then in 20 years perhaps he has strip-mined everything surrounding the city for metal to build the bastard homage to New York, thus destroying vegetation within a reasonable travel distance. Also, thinking about it now, the pipes make some sense as well. If water was a scarce resource under the old king, plumbing (stone or metal) to deliver water from underground sources would be very important. I think I like this movie more now.
'Good' in this context is a tricky thing. Hopper as Koopa was good in the same way Raul Julia as M Bison was good in Street Fighter (though I think for very different reasons.) Hopper was always a bit over the top and campy, which does just work well for the movie. I wouldn't say his acting elevated the role though, just that his style fit what was needed to be 'right'. That said, it's a great case of 'I can't think of anyone that would do better', too.
To imply that CG from that era should have all been great and believable just because Jurassic Park existed is like saying all practical effects from the '80s should have been on the level of John Carpenter's The Thing. CG effects are not done by computer algorithms alone (at least not yet). They need talented human artists to create them, just like practical effects need talented people. Hopefully, that remains true for a long time to come CG requires artistic talent, time, and budget, just the same as practical effects. A guy in a rubber mask can look just as fake and unconvincing as a CG character if it's done in an unreasonable time frame by people of limited talent and budget.
The only two good things about this movie is how good the relationship was between Mario and Luigi's actors as they ended up as good friends and the t-rex design of Koopa, Jesus it was scary
Wouldn't it make sense for a future installment of this series to go all the way back, to the very first dumb sci-fi race, from which all other (at least the invading ones) spring: the martians from H.G. Wells War of the Worlds?
taln0reich in the Martians defense, the only real stupid mistake they made was failing to take into account earth's pathogens (which apparently they never really had to worry about on their homeworld). If it wasn't for that, they would of won.
The question is : do you mean the original martians from the novel written in the 19th century, or the martians from the tom cruise movie? The original was written at a time before the motor car was common, leave alone the concept of flying into space. The thought of needing to analyse the air for microbes wouldn't have been a major thinking point, in fact, in his other work 'first man in the moon' they barely used any resources for a crackpot professor to build a spaceship in his conservatory! So, were the original martians stupid in not researching the atmosphere for pathogens? yes, but only in retrospect. Now, if we are talking the tom cruise movie martians, where even man has been in space(and on the moon? Lets not have that debate here. lol), we(from the authors point of view) understand the need to fully analyse the atmosphere of an alien environment before removing our own air supply, so it would be logical to assume alien species would too. Were the tom cruise martians stupid in not researching the atmosphere for pathogens? definitely.
Anyone who thinks "Super Mario Bros." is the worst video game to film adaptation ever made is clearly unfamiliar with the filmography of Uwe Boll... and I envy their ignorance.
3:10 the first point itself had me laughing to tears lmao XD you know this movie is TERRIBLE just from saying the civilisations existence is entirely stupid
2:27 The Supermario Bros movie sets look like they were made at the same abandoned factory in North Carolina where the original TMNT was filmed. Why go over a flick that came out over twenty five years ago!? Not even SCI-FI, more of a fantasy action adventure! Who even remembers this film anyway?
Why do you torment us with this curse? We were trying to forget that it exists. I actually remember taking this back to the video shop because I was ten or twelve years old and I watched the first five minutes of it and I thought "This can't be the movie."
At least the new Mario Movie that's coming out next year looks way better and looks like it's going to be more faithful to Mario than this movie ever will
Suggestions for future videos The Shroobs from Mario and Luigi Partners in time- Flawed ships and one of there weakness is baby tears The Timelords from Doctor Who- Up tight up class idiots with a flawed court system. The Cybermen from Doctor Who- Inspiration for the Borgs stupidity The Weeping angles from Doctor Who- For monsters that turn to stone when looked at, hunting in big populated cities during daylight and having a hunting ground in New York city is the dumbest thing to do. Also the continuity for them is fucked up because there creator is so fucking indulge in his own ego. The council of Ricks- a society of multiple versions of a sociopath and multiple versions of a sociopath insecure grandson is not going to be so successful The galactic government from Rick and Morty- Don't want to spoil why but they qualify for this series The gems from Steven Universe- Don't want to spoil why but they qualify for this series
I definitely have to say it's a pleasure to see this show , I have a suggestion have you considered using the Planet Trade Organization from the Dragon Ball Z series for an episode. It might be worth looking into since it's essentially an entire collection of alien species ruled over by an species with a small handful of beings ruling it with a mercenary army .
"Became"? Bob Hoskins, Dennis Hopper and Lance Henrikson had all already established their legacies by the time of this movie (and their star power was why they were cast here in the first place). The only one without a previously established star resume who jumped off from this to bigger things was Leguizamo.

That's debatable. Tron was about a video game, but there was no game for it to be based on.
What about the First Order? Technically not a civilization but a top contender for your series, given how badly organized they are and how ridiculous it is that they manage to create their own high tech equipment including a death star clone several years after the fall of the Imperial Empire without anybody noticing. Somehow able to seize planets and have a big enough army to do it all.
Half-way (give or take) through this video I had something of an epiphany that I had never considered...
What if the King's civilization was, actually, pretty decent? You present that this world is nigh-impossible to live in, but when you start to present the problems behind Koopa's management, there's no consideration that, really, Koopa has only been running things for the last 20 years or so. It doesn't change the bulk message that Koopa (and the civilization under his watch) really just doesn't work, but is it at least plausible that prior to Koopa overthrowing the former king that things weren't all that bad?
If the city, itself, is Koopa's doing, then in 20 years perhaps he has strip-mined everything surrounding the city for metal to build the bastard homage to New York, thus destroying vegetation within a reasonable travel distance. Also, thinking about it now, the pipes make some sense as well. If water was a scarce resource under the old king, plumbing (stone or metal) to deliver water from underground sources would be very important.
I think I like this movie more now.
"Pipes are the veins of this mighty erection!"
JuryRigged Dennis Hopper was good in this, may he rest in peace.
'Good' in this context is a tricky thing. Hopper as Koopa was good in the same way Raul Julia as M Bison was good in Street Fighter (though I think for very different reasons.) Hopper was always a bit over the top and campy, which does just work well for the movie. I wouldn't say his acting elevated the role though, just that his style fit what was needed to be 'right'. That said, it's a great case of 'I can't think of anyone that would do better', too.
Well, allow a self-centered idiot to take power, but that would never happen...
but the whole planet is shown to be deserted
To imply that CG from that era should have all been great and believable just because Jurassic Park existed is like saying all practical effects from the '80s should have been on the level of John Carpenter's The Thing. CG effects are not done by computer algorithms alone (at least not yet). They need talented human artists to create them, just like practical effects need talented people. Hopefully, that remains true for a long time to come CG requires artistic talent, time, and budget, just the same as practical effects. A guy in a rubber mask can look just as fake and unconvincing as a CG character if it's done in an unreasonable time frame by people of limited talent and budget.
I asked for more Tuvak and more Tuvak was what I got. 👍
Awesome.
I had forgotten about this thing existing and I think it should go back to that state of being forgotten by most people
Just realized he was the big bad in Waterworld and a few others too. This guy really got around as bein the evil villain for stupid societies lol
All this proves that Super Mario Bros. Is the best movie ever.
Dennis Hopper really helps, hamming it up as Koopa.
15:52 Maybe call them the Koopa Troopas, as well? Have THAT be your elite force!
Given the population of Dinohattan Koopa's plan would sort of backfire in spectacular fashion
Your depth in your voyager cutaways are impressive.
"A loud bizarre Brazil inspired Blade Runner on meth" and I love it.
Your over familiarity with Voyager is put to hilarious use here! Love this series of yours
Mama mia Luigi, I'm not feeling too well.
1:08 Mario Bros. did it before Infinity War
This came out two years after Infinity Gauntlet (1991)
Do the Paklehds (the ones that say “we look for things things that make us go”)
+Disappointed Optimist
Why? They already did themselves.
I love all the Tuvok remarks in-between.
Some of the best content, I've seen on TH-cam. Great stuff!!
Their de-evolving machine also evolves...so if they take a group of people and "evolve" them and use these "evolved" people to be a super think tank
"Loud and obnoxious, Brazil inspired Blade Runner on Meth"
Perfect description
"To achieve his doomed plan"! LMAO
The only two good things about this movie is how good the relationship was between Mario and Luigi's actors as they ended up as good friends and the t-rex design of Koopa, Jesus it was scary
i enjoyed the movie.
if you can ignore the flimsy SuperMario adaptations, it's actually not that bad of a movie
Wouldn't it make sense for a future installment of this series to go all the way back, to the very first dumb sci-fi race, from which all other (at least the invading ones) spring: the martians from H.G. Wells War of the Worlds?
taln0reich in the Martians defense, the only real stupid mistake they made was failing to take into account earth's pathogens (which apparently they never really had to worry about on their homeworld). If it wasn't for that, they would of won.
The question is : do you mean the original martians from the novel written in the 19th century, or the martians from the tom cruise movie? The original was written at a time before the motor car was common, leave alone the concept of flying into space. The thought of needing to analyse the air for microbes wouldn't have been a major thinking point, in fact, in his other work 'first man in the moon' they barely used any resources for a crackpot professor to build a spaceship in his conservatory! So, were the original martians stupid in not researching the atmosphere for pathogens? yes, but only in retrospect.
Now, if we are talking the tom cruise movie martians, where even man has been in space(and on the moon? Lets not have that debate here. lol), we(from the authors point of view) understand the need to fully analyse the atmosphere of an alien environment before removing our own air supply, so it would be logical to assume alien species would too. Were the tom cruise martians stupid in not researching the atmosphere for pathogens? definitely.
Anyone who thinks "Super Mario Bros." is the worst video game to film adaptation ever made is clearly unfamiliar with the filmography of Uwe Boll... and I envy their ignorance.
i love how you've framed Tuvoc to be making shady side comments lol
3:10 the first point itself had me laughing to tears lmao XD you know this movie is TERRIBLE just from saying the civilisations existence is entirely stupid
Not sure how you could watch that film beginning to end, it looked so bad it hurt just to watch those clips.
Tuvok has definitely become the co-host of this channel! And he slays it!
I find it simply amazing that he has so much sass through the series that this channel can always pull something.
You have a Tuvok quote for everything and I love it
You're use of Tuvok clips on so fine. I feel like Tuvok has an answer to everything now.
Inadequate gun control? *loads fully semiautomatic assault rifle*
You took this movie more serious than anyone else, including the people who made it.
a great episode, always worth the wait
This was literally one of the most fun movies I've ever watched.
Finally, something. I'd almost given up checking your channel weekly.
The cars have to be electric. No fossils no oil my guy
2:27 The Supermario Bros movie sets look like they were made at the same abandoned factory in North Carolina where the original TMNT was filmed.
Why go over a flick that came out over twenty five years ago!? Not even SCI-FI, more of a fantasy action adventure!
Who even remembers this film anyway?
Because it's easy to poke fun at.
@@grahamcarpenter5135 Wasn't poking fun, just that movie: Super Mario Brothers, was a turdfest
Why do you torment us with this curse? We were trying to forget that it exists.
I actually remember taking this back to the video shop because I was ten or twelve years old and I watched the first five minutes of it and I thought "This can't be the movie."
At least the new Mario Movie that's coming out next year looks way better and looks like it's going to be more faithful to Mario than this movie ever will
Holy shit, that ending. Love your videos, man. You go all the way.
I love this movie for some reason I've watched it like 6 times in my life and it always puts a smile on my face
Suggestions for future videos
The Shroobs from Mario and Luigi Partners in time- Flawed ships and one of there weakness is baby tears
The Timelords from Doctor Who- Up tight up class idiots with a flawed court system.
The Cybermen from Doctor Who- Inspiration for the Borgs stupidity
The Weeping angles from Doctor Who- For monsters that turn to stone when looked at, hunting in big populated cities during daylight and having a hunting ground in New York city is the dumbest thing to do. Also the continuity for them is fucked up because there creator is so fucking indulge in his own ego.
The council of Ricks- a society of multiple versions of a sociopath and multiple versions of a sociopath insecure grandson is not going to be so successful
The galactic government from Rick and Morty- Don't want to spoil why but they qualify for this series
The gems from Steven Universe- Don't want to spoil why but they qualify for this series
I definitely have to say it's a pleasure to see this show , I have a suggestion have you considered using the Planet Trade Organization from the Dragon Ball Z series for an episode. It might be worth looking into since it's essentially an entire collection of alien species ruled over by an species with a small handful of beings ruling it with a mercenary army .
1:07 Avengers: Infinity War(2018)
@Inquisitor Shadowlord *feel
Mr. Koopa i don't feel so good.
I watches this movie on it's first showing, but I was high on slab, can't remember any of it
That was a good video on this strange, unpleasant yet somewhat interesting film.
At least a lot of these actors still became legends in their own rights. despite being in this shitfest.
"Became"? Bob Hoskins, Dennis Hopper and Lance Henrikson had all already established their legacies by the time of this movie (and their star power was why they were cast here in the first place). The only one without a previously established star resume who jumped off from this to bigger things was Leguizamo.
I forgot this movie existed. Now I remember watching it when it came out. However, I'm sure I'll forget it soon enough
I loved that damn ending.. Good job dude
1:21-1:37 is pure gold in cross-cut editing
This is the most I have ever seen of Super Mario Bros.
I won't be fooled again!
17:00 LOL THE ORIGIN!!!!
ooohhh boy do I miss these.
tuvok was killing it this episode
