#baddmedicine# your reviews and reaction of this movie was awesome I hope you guys will please do a reaction of one of my favorite Arnold Schwarzenegger movie from 1994 its called JUNIOR
There's also the Starfox Arwing tv antenna on the tv in Mario's room, the Mario shape in the brick wall when Mario and Luigi crash into it in the sewers! The Dk Rap reference from Donkey Kong 64 which made me very happy! There's too many to count! I was trying so hard to keep an eye for them I didn't count because I heard there were a lot of easter eggs. And I agree Jack Black was perfect for Bowser!
Oh and there was the reference to Fix it Felix in there that I forgot to mention! And all the Punch-out references in the restaurant! This is easily a movie I could see watching again to find more easter eggs and references! I'm sure I missed plenty! And yes, that was 100% a Luigi's Mansion reference in the forest! That was my first thought too. Oh and they even included the cart selection music when they're making their carts! I thought that was neat! Toad's cart made me laugh! The smallest one with this huge truck, and the sunglasses! Haha! And they had the whole DK family in the front of the crowd! Diddy, Dixie, Chunky, Kiddy, and I think Lanky was in there, but I don't think I saw Funky which was sad and surprising, or Wrinkly. I'm guessing you heard recently that a sequel was announced! It's crazy how much money Nintendo made off this and all the records this movie broke! I think it's the made more money than any other animated movie or it was up there near the very top. Mario Maker is my favorite game hands down! I wanted a game like that for so many years as someone that grew up on Mario games and loves creativity! I spent so many hours making levels in Mario Maker on the Wii U!
Jack Black was certainly the only casting decision I wasn't completely bewildered by, but after actually watching the movie he ended up being one of my least favorite parts of it, so go figure. Lol
Fun fact, the King Penguin's voice actor, Khary Payton, said that Chris Pratt and Charlie Day's first voices for the brothers were SUPER thick brooklyn italian accents, similar to something in goodfellas or the sopranos! After that, Nintendo basically told them to dial it back alot more. 😂
Seeing this in theaters was so much fun. I'm pretty sure the adults were loving it more than the kids lmao. I saw it with my bf and his brother and they got definitely got misty eyed at times lol. Been singing "Peaches" ever since. 🍄
I can imagine the people watching cheering at the end of this movie in theaters! I'm not a big movie fan and don't go to the theaters, but I kind of wish I had seen this in theaters. And I can totally see this movie being more enjoyable for adults than kids with all the throwbacks to the classic Mario games and other games such as Punch-out and some that may not be as well known to kids.
Respect for the killer intro, turned out really amazing. Jack Black is definitely the breakout performance but the rest of the movie was also super enjoyable.
This movie touched my heart in a way I couldn't imagine. My brother that is also my best friend is going through a bad depressive moment, and while I was watching the movie and seeing Mario and Luigi always being there for each other, or Mario saying to Luigi "nothing bad will happen as long as we are together" ... ughhh, I cried tons. I texted my brother and he found it funny how Mario movie made me cry. But it's just my heart that felt that way because of him.
I was having a "meh" day and this video arrived right on time. I can't wait to see Answer being ready willing and able and Oak dispense to us his 80s/90s philosophical take, while Mason just enjoys his time. Thanks guys, you're awesome. Keep doing you.
This movie is such a love letter to Mario fans. Power-ups and mechanics from games like Mario 3, 3D World, and NSMB, places from or reminiscent of 64, Donkey Kong Country, Luigi’s Mansion, Odyssey, music originally composed from 1, World, Galaxy 1 and 2, Bowser’s Fury, Mario Kart 8, and so on. And of course, the other Nintendo references like Punch-Out and Kid Icarus. It’s all so good to catch and hear on subsequent watches
How can you not think Bowser is a bad bad guy? He tortures both Luigi and Toad! The second Peach rejects him during the wedding he actively tries to kill her! I was honestly surprised how villaneous they made him. He's alot more sympathetic in a lot of the games and even joins your party in some of the RPGs.
That star moment had EVERY gamer I know hum starman. I was so blown away by this version. We waited 30 years to get a film of THIS caliber(after the flawed first attempt)
One Easter egg that I really like that I didn't even notice when I first watched it was that when Mario and Luigi first break through the wall into the area with the pipe, the hole they make is in the shape of 8-bit Mario's head.
I didn't think watching you guys watching this movie would give me JUST as much happiness as it did when I watched it in the theaters. Brilliant movie, delivering on everything I hoped for. This is a movie for EVERY generation. As a 90s kid, growing up with parents who played videogames (Mom played Super Mario 64, and my dad played so many racing games), this hit hard.
damn that was a nice intro editing. Altough, it feels like a "simple, generic" movie, plot wise, but I believe the purpose was about having a good time, and fun, catching the references and whatnot. I love it! I remember the estatic joy I had when I heard the Mario Kart 8 menu theme
i was so shocked at the amount of detail in the animation tho like the scene where donkey kong flicks mario out his hand and you can see all the lines on donkey kongs finger or like all the scales on bowsers skin it was so amazing and seeing all the characters from all different games was so good seriously it’s such a good film
In theater was a ridiculous experience. It was multi-generation from kids all the way to 60's laughing. Packed with people cosplaying, kids dressed-up with toys and everyone signing Peaches on the way out. Crazy energy. FYI this is the first time Illumination had to partner for a movie as Nintendo refused to just hand the rights over again like in 1993. The creator of Mario was heavily involved and Nintendo also funded part of it. Illumination said it was a great experience. Nintendo bought an animation studio last year and turned it into Nintendo Pictures with the sole purpose of bringing Nintendo IP's to video so they are serious. Zelda is already rumored in development and hopefully many other IP's
Glad you guys caught the in-game Mario voice actor cameo. What you guys might not have caught during your first viewing is that he also voices Mario’s dad.
There was quite a few Easter eggs in here. When mario and Luigi crashed into the bricks in the sewer, the imprint in the bricks is shaped like a mario 8 bit head. Luigis ring tone is the Nintendo game cube theme. When the dimensions convergence, they end up like construction site in Brooklyn just like in the 93 mario movie. Great reaction fellows!
I literally just watched this movie yesterday and loved it and now I get to enjoy it with one of the best group reaction channels here on TH-cam. This movie was just childhood nostalgia and fun injected straight into my veins and you can tell that the people that created this really wanted to capture that feeling of excitement and kudos to them.
There's nothing like watching three grown men mark out hard for an animated film.... with me right there with you along the whole way. I saw it in the theatre with my 5 year old daughter, she adored it and loved Peach, but I think I loved it more than she did being a hard-core Mario kid when I was little. Dream come true.
Ive been a Mario fan for a long time. Ever since I was 4 years old (1989) I played Mario and loved it. Ive played a lot of the games throughout my life. And when the 1993 movie came out I was very disappointed. So when I heard this was going to be released I was very skeptical. But I was pleasantly surprised when I went to see this in the theater with my sister. It had so many easter eggs and things that a lot of players would see and love. So it is awesome and Im glad you guys liked it too!
I need folks to start giving Keegan Michael Key some love. He crushed it as Toad! A lot of reactors bypass him in their discussions which is wild to me. You couldnt even tell it was him. He was great! Awesome reaction. I clicked so hard. I saw this in the theaters. We got the biggest screen in MI at Emagine Theater. It was awesome. The sound, clarity was awesome. Everyone was laughing and cheering when Luigi protected Mario. The ending with Yoshi had everyone going nuts, including me 😂😂
Rainbow Road was the one course I always did well in. Something about the music, colors, and finality of it got me super focused. (LOL not sure why I called it Star Road)
Another thing that I appreciated it is they made Bowser far more 3-dimensional...and gave him a real reason as to why he went for conquering. He believed the princess would make him happy, meaning he's not happy with himself.
this is the type of animation that even grown ups above 40 years old can relate to...just watching you guys is even funnier because i can see that you have the nostalgic feeling like you are playing the game again...hahaha 3 big guys being kids again is so refreshing to see... awesome that you loved it!
Remember what Mario's father said at the end "These are my boys!" because the original voice for Mario (who voiced Mario and Luigi's father) it's now retired and that was his last proudly Mario Bros line. :')
You guys have such an amazing reaction to this movie and it made my day! This movie was so nostalgic and I think it's great for all ages from older people who played the Nintendo 64 and Game Boy to Gen Z'ers today playing the switch and the newer Mario games like Odyssey, Smash Ultimate, and Mario Kart Deluxe. The soundtrack was good, the animation was good, the characters/voice acting was good but the plot was meh. I wish they had other characters though such as Daisy or Wario. Bowser and Lumalee were the best characters in my opinion. Some moments that made me laugh my ass off; When DK is flexing his pecs and showing off, Toad and his sunglasses in his big kart and when he screams I'm too young to die!, Bowser and his obsession with Peach-When he sings Peaches and get's interrupted(both times), him practicing his vows with Kamek dressed up as Peach, and lot's more. Keep up the great content guys. 👍
I like that they used all the years of Mario when going for references. Both going for nostalgia but also things from the most recent games like Odyssey and Mario Kart 8. Few things I wasn't a fan of, I think they went a biiiit too simple when it came to worldbuilding "Here, these are power ups, now we go do the plot" and they overused slow motions a LOT. But after being super worried when of all studios it would be Illumination doing Mario, they really proved that they were a great choice. The squishyness of their style works really well for Mario. We went to watch the movie in the theater, as a group of late 20s who grew up with those games and we were probably the loudest laughing group there. Constantly felt like I wanted to point at the screen for details and we looked at each other at every sound queue we recognise. In the end what the movie got 100% right, it's simply FUN.
When I first watched this movie and saw the Yoshis, I was so hyped! The reason was the pink Yoshi that stops looks at them and voices "Mario", indicating that Yoshi had actually met Mario before this! Made me so hyped for the possibilities!
Enjoyed your review of the movie! Talk about a walk down Memory Lane! I used to have a bootleg 5 1/2 in floppy of Donkey Kong and later a bootleg of Mario Bros that I and my friends would play on an Apple 2e with a color monitor in the 80s. We had such a good time with it even then. So much fun!
That intro felt so perfect they could have put that in the movie! An interesting story regarding "Peaches." From what I know, Jack Black said he was asked, halfway through production, if he could sing in the movie, something he doesn't immediately say yes to since he has a band and all, and they sent him a short 30-second song. When he listened to it, he got it, Bowser tickling the ivories. He worked on it, turned it into a full song, sent it back and said he'll only say yes if he sings it exactly like this. And they said "YESS!!!"
Seeing this movie in theater with my family and fiancè was a fantastically fun experience. Even my dad, why didn't play one bit of a Mario game, enjoyed it.
The one shot where Mario is playing NES, you pointed out the Pro Wrestling poster. Starman Vs. The Amazon. Within that game Amazon is regarded as a monster heel, whereas Starman is the babyface luchador. Amazon wearing a lizard like mask, and Starman also doubling as the name of the powerup in the Mario series. It's a blink or you'll miss it foreshadowing for the climax. Also, a-Ha's Take on Me was selected to be in the film due to it being the #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 the day the Nintendo Entertainment System made its debut in New York City for a trial run (October 18th, 1985)
Nope, KAMEK is Kevin Michael Richardson, whereas the leader of the penguins is CYBORG from Teen Titans. Though I have NO idea who plays Diddy. Yes, I did see it and I took NINE people to the theater and you can see the proof in my third episode of my Super Smash Bros. Cinematic Universe Box Office Records series.
I also love the fact that the movie knows when to add terror and suspense despite it mostly being fun and upbeat. I also like the message that movie gives to not only children but to us as adults as well. Bowser was both funny and scary as hell!
The advertisement in their plumbing, the one who voiced the woman tha looms similar to princess peach was the orignal actress from the 90s tv series, also the number that was showed in that ad really works during its release and part ofvtheir marketing strategy with charlie day's voice as luigi in a voice mail...also i think they still have the website about their plumbing services active...😂😂
14:22 I loved the part where he spreads his arms out as he’s running towards those bomber torpedos 17:51 loved when Mario puts his hands behind his back and does that little swing thing with his feet, it’s just so cute 😊😊 20:41 I can’t be the only one who thinks that it looks like Donkey Kong is bitch slapping Mario. 😂😂 21:30 🤣🤣 At 29:19, it’s not really a raccoon suit, it’s technically a Tanooki suit. It’s like a raccoon except it’s actually a japanese raccoon dog in Japan 30:45 I’ll never get tired of listening to Mario say Mamma Mia in slow mo 😂😂
Im going to say the movie met my expectations, I enjoyed every single moment of the movie. It brought me back to my childhood from playing the Super Nintendo to playing the Game Cube , Nintendo DS and also Wii. I can’t wait to see if they can introduce the rest of the characters from the Mario franchise! 😍😍😍🤣
I had it when i was growing up on Atari 2600 when it was just MARIO BROS.... then had it in original Nintendo and i played that thing forever, had the old nintendo game informer magazine with all the secret levels, etc...
*Jack Black's casting as Bowser is one of my favorites in a movie inspired by a video game franchise. Right up there with Ryan Reynolds as Detective Pikachu and Ben Schwartz as Sonic The Hedgehog.*
i still remember the time everyone laugh at the cast especially on chris pratt till he did the italian accent was a big slap to the one who doubted him and hated him being casted as mario😂😂😂😂 good times men
the only thing i wish is that kranky used a couple old man "back in my day" quips, cause that was his whole thing in the game also mario kart crossed with mad max road battle lol
The end is a nod to the Super Mario RPG where the brothers just moved in and lived in the Mushroom Kingdom. And the Yoshi Egg scene is right out of the Godzilla movie. The one with the big chin.
You know what this movie was? It was fun and that's ok. When it came out a lot of critics complained that the plot was so simple but guess what, the Mario games are simple too. You also have to consider that Nintendo is super protective of their properties, specially Mario so they had a big say on it. They kept it safe but its ok. It made the money and can't wait for sequels and spin off
You know it took an entire generation or two of people growing up with Super Mario for a proper Super Mario movie to be made, because the writers, directors, animators.... I mean common who hasn't played Super Mario? Definitely the ones geek enough to do animation.
Here are the cast that I hope to appear in Super Mario Bros 2: Chris Pratt- Mario Anya Taylor-Joy- Princess Peach Charlie Day- Luigi Emma Stone or Zendaya- Princess Daisy Jack Black- Bowsler Walker Scobell- Bowsler Jr/ Diddy Kong Keegan Michael-Key- Toad Seth Rogen- Donkey Kong Fred Armisen- Cranky Kong with Bill Hader as Waluigi and Pedro Pascal as Wario (I also heard Jack Black, who voice Bowsler, wanted Pedro to voice Wario) Wish that the sequel could get a 2hrs run-time this time
This was a lot of fun. Jack Black was superb as Bowser. Tons of easter eggs and more. What was your reaction? Do you still play any Mario game today?

Over 100 musical cues. Over 150 Yoshi eggs(😉🙃). Nothing short of SPECTACULAR
#baddmedicine# your reviews and reaction of this movie was awesome I hope you guys will please do a reaction of one of my favorite Arnold Schwarzenegger movie from 1994 its called JUNIOR
There's also the Starfox Arwing tv antenna on the tv in Mario's room, the Mario shape in the brick wall when Mario and Luigi crash into it in the sewers! The Dk Rap reference from Donkey Kong 64 which made me very happy! There's too many to count! I was trying so hard to keep an eye for them I didn't count because I heard there were a lot of easter eggs. And I agree Jack Black was perfect for Bowser!
Oh and there was the reference to Fix it Felix in there that I forgot to mention! And all the Punch-out references in the restaurant! This is easily a movie I could see watching again to find more easter eggs and references! I'm sure I missed plenty! And yes, that was 100% a Luigi's Mansion reference in the forest! That was my first thought too. Oh and they even included the cart selection music when they're making their carts! I thought that was neat! Toad's cart made me laugh! The smallest one with this huge truck, and the sunglasses! Haha! And they had the whole DK family in the front of the crowd! Diddy, Dixie, Chunky, Kiddy, and I think Lanky was in there, but I don't think I saw Funky which was sad and surprising, or Wrinkly. I'm guessing you heard recently that a sequel was announced!
It's crazy how much money Nintendo made off this and all the records this movie broke! I think it's the made more money than any other animated movie or it was up there near the very top.
Mario Maker is my favorite game hands down! I wanted a game like that for so many years as someone that grew up on Mario games and loves creativity! I spent so many hours making levels in Mario Maker on the Wii U!
When the cast was announced for this movie I was sure of one thing, that Jack Black would nail his role as Bowser.
Jack Black was certainly the only casting decision I wasn't completely bewildered by, but after actually watching the movie he ended up being one of my least favorite parts of it, so go figure. Lol
Certainty better then School Of Rock. Which isn't saying much. But he was almost as good here as Cable Guy.
heard they had the idea for a movie just because they wanted to cast Jack Black as a main character
I was sceptical at first but when I heard Jack Black's Bowser voice in the first teaser I fell in love.
@@WoahLookAtThatFreak does that mean he did a bad job or does that mean everything else in the movie was just that good??
Fun fact, the King Penguin's voice actor, Khary Payton, said that Chris Pratt and Charlie Day's first voices for the brothers were SUPER thick brooklyn italian accents, similar to something in goodfellas or the sopranos!
After that, Nintendo basically told them to dial it back alot more. 😂
Ahhhh that was Khary Payton. That is awesome!
would have loved to hear that
Isn't that drebin
@@BaddMedicine Kevin Michael Richardson IS in the movie as well, he plays Kamek (the wizard koopa)
@@BaddMedicineDidn’t he also voiced Cyclops from Teen Titans GO!
Bowser on the piano was the best part of that movie😂😂
that was awesome!
Do you mean when he was singing Peaches? Or when he and Kamek played the underground music? At the end when he was on the little piano?
Seeing this in theaters was so much fun. I'm pretty sure the adults were loving it more than the kids lmao. I saw it with my bf and his brother and they got definitely got misty eyed at times lol. Been singing "Peaches" ever since. 🍄
It's so catchy
for me it was seeing the brothers I’ve been playing as come to life, caring for each other like I’d always imagined they would. its a tear-jerker!
I can imagine the people watching cheering at the end of this movie in theaters! I'm not a big movie fan and don't go to the theaters, but I kind of wish I had seen this in theaters.

Same
Well, except for Seth Rogan. Easily the worst part.
I see what you did there! "super enjoyable."
For what it is, this movie was fabulous. My kids adored it, my husband and I had a blast and the nostalgia was awesome.
It felt a little rushed ngl
The star from mario galaxy broke the theater we were laughing soo hard!😂😂😂
The whole theater also sang the dk rap when donkey kong came out!🎉
The star was the best thing ever!
Oh my goodness that's amazing! I wish I could have been there for that! The DK Rap part made me so happy! I played that game so much!

The Duck Hunt references are super fun when you notice them! I'll leave them to you to find. :-)
42 years of Nintendo's legacy
I liked how the "real Mario voice" Mario had a blue shirt and red overalls, the original color scheme
I'm just gonna be honest here,
"Browser" cracked me the fuck up. Best misspelling I've seen in a while
That fast typing will get you!😂
How can you not think Bowser is a bad bad guy? He tortures both Luigi and Toad! The second Peach rejects him during the wedding he actively tries to kill her! I was honestly surprised how villaneous they made him. He's alot more sympathetic in a lot of the games and even joins your party in some of the RPGs.
It is for the sake of the movie. They want a clear cut villain for people to root against. The movie is NOT the game.

Nah. He's easily the worst part.
Glad you guys caught the in-game Mario voice actor cameo.
What you guys might not have caught during your first viewing is that he also voices Mario’s dad.
After watching this, Peaches was stuck in my head for months 😂
Now, whenever I summon a student to my desk, I say, “Sit, jam with me.”🤘🏻
😂😂

My favorite characters:

I love how they’re reacting as if it’s live action with heavy stakes like they think the characters are in actual danger hahaha
The amount of people i saw that cosplayed in super mario characters at the movies was insane. never seen my local theater packed like that.
Rainbow Road was the one course I always did well in. Something about the music, colors, and finality of it got me super focused. (LOL not sure why I called it Star Road)

Constantly felt like I wanted to point at the screen for details and we looked at each other at every sound queue we recognise. In the end what the movie got 100% right, it's simply FUN.
When I first watched this movie and saw the Yoshis, I was so hyped! The reason was the pink Yoshi that stops looks at them and voices "Mario", indicating that Yoshi had actually met Mario before this! Made me so hyped for the possibilities!
Enjoyed your review of the movie! Talk about a walk down Memory Lane! I used to have a bootleg 5 1/2 in floppy of Donkey Kong and later a bootleg of Mario Bros that I and my friends would play on an Apple 2e with a color monitor in the 80s. We had such a good time with it even then. So much fun!
Absolutely love your reactions with all my heart, it just brightens my day
🤜🤛😁 appreciate you watching with us🤙
I love this movie. It has everything. Bowser's song Peaches is funny.😂
Nostalgia ❤
I love your reactions to this movie. I had a blast 😃👍
That intro felt so perfect they could have put that in the movie!
An interesting story regarding "Peaches." From what I know, Jack Black said he was asked, halfway through production, if he could sing in the movie, something he doesn't immediately say yes to since he has a band and all, and they sent him a short 30-second song. When he listened to it, he got it, Bowser tickling the ivories. He worked on it, turned it into a full song, sent it back and said he'll only say yes if he sings it exactly like this. And they said "YESS!!!"
Seeing this movie in theater with my family and fiancè was a fantastically fun experience. Even my dad, why didn't play one bit of a Mario game, enjoyed it.
The walking Koopa skeletons are called Dry Bones.
IDC what anybody says "peaches" was a slap 😂😂
The one shot where Mario is playing NES, you pointed out the Pro Wrestling poster. Starman Vs. The Amazon. Within that game Amazon is regarded as a monster heel, whereas Starman is the babyface luchador. Amazon wearing a lizard like mask, and Starman also doubling as the name of the powerup in the Mario series. It's a blink or you'll miss it foreshadowing for the climax.
Also, a-Ha's Take on Me was selected to be in the film due to it being the #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 the day the Nintendo Entertainment System made its debut in New York City for a trial run (October 18th, 1985)
Nope, KAMEK is Kevin Michael Richardson, whereas the leader of the penguins is CYBORG from Teen Titans. Though I have NO idea who plays Diddy. Yes, I did see it and I took NINE people to the theater and you can see the proof in my third episode of my Super Smash Bros. Cinematic Universe Box Office Records series.
Wow a five star from everyone, was a pretty iconic movie
The answer calling out references was great!
Imagine watching this only knowing about Super Mario from the 90s movie and thinking it's a remake.
This is my favorite movie ever. I was fan boying the whole way through.
I had my doubts but I never doubted Jack Black
My first was Super Mario world , so the Yoshi eggs and easter eggs had me super excited
i love how they made mario hate mushrooms...
I went to see this in theatres multiple times, it was amazing every single time
I love that you said 'oh I saw the illuminations logo and knew it would be good', while I had the exact opposite reaction lol.
I also love the fact that the movie knows when to add terror and suspense despite it mostly being fun and upbeat.
I also like the message that movie gives to not only children but to us as adults as well. Bowser was both funny and scary as hell!
honestly when it ended and you said it was great for us in our 30s and 40s. It was. I've always wanted something like this and it was sooo good. 100%
Best intro for anyone watchin this movie! 🔥🔥🔥
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏🙏🤜🤛
The advertisement in their plumbing, the one who voiced the woman tha looms similar to princess peach was the orignal actress from the 90s tv series, also the number that was showed in that ad really works during its release and part ofvtheir marketing strategy with charlie day's voice as luigi in a voice mail...also i think they still have the website about their plumbing services active...😂😂
14:22 I loved the part where he spreads his arms out as he’s running towards those bomber torpedos
17:51 loved when Mario puts his hands behind his back and does that little swing thing with his feet, it’s just so cute
😊😊
20:41 I can’t be the only one who thinks that it looks like Donkey Kong is bitch slapping Mario. 😂😂
21:30 🤣🤣
At 29:19, it’s not really a raccoon suit, it’s technically a Tanooki suit. It’s like a raccoon except it’s actually a japanese raccoon dog in Japan
30:45 I’ll never get tired of listening to Mario say Mamma Mia in slow mo 😂😂
16:47 Love to see everybody dying of a laughter 😂
That blue star is awesome 😂
Im going to say the movie met my expectations, I enjoyed every single moment of the movie. It brought me back to my childhood from playing the Super Nintendo to playing the Game Cube , Nintendo DS and also Wii. I can’t wait to see if they can introduce the rest of the characters from the Mario franchise! 😍😍😍🤣
600+ audio and visual references . . . Completely insane.
👀👀👀👀👀
After leaving the cinema, my family and I sang "peaches" nonstop. It was such a fun movie. 😂🍑
I had it when i was growing up on Atari 2600 when it was just MARIO BROS.... then had it in original Nintendo and i played that thing forever, had the old nintendo game informer magazine with all the secret levels, etc...
I still have my Nintendo from 1990 😂
@@BaddMedicine i did until my ex sold mine and all my games...
*Jack Black's casting as Bowser is one of my favorites in a movie inspired by a video game franchise. Right up there with Ryan Reynolds as Detective Pikachu and Ben Schwartz as Sonic The Hedgehog.*
i still remember the time everyone laugh at the cast especially on chris pratt till he did the italian accent was a big slap to the one who doubted him and hated him being casted as mario😂😂😂😂 good times men
There's a video of a 7-8 yr old leading his school into singing "Peaches"
You cant stop smiling while watching this movie
Loved this movie 100%. We had to bring out 10 year old to the theater for it, he was captivated the entire time.
Nintendo had their hands deep in the development of this movie as well, especially Miyamoto.
the only thing i wish is that kranky used a couple old man "back in my day" quips, cause that was his whole thing in the game
also mario kart crossed with mad max road battle lol
This movie was great. Growing up playing Mario then watching the movie made the memories come back. Sonic was a good movie also
listening to 3 grown men laugh with pure joy for 45mins is a delight!
I teared up when I saw Shigeru Miyamoto’s name on the screen
Fan Theory: Toad was Bowsers inside man. That’s how Bowser always knew what Princess and Mario were up to.
The end is a nod to the Super Mario RPG where the brothers just moved in and lived in the Mushroom Kingdom. And the Yoshi Egg scene is right out of the Godzilla movie. The one with the big chin.
10:25 They’re called shy guys
One Easter Egg I noticed from rewatches is Diddy Kong’s got a set of the bongo’s from the DK bongo games
jack black as bowser made me forget that we got the monstrosity that is chris pratt as mario
You know what this movie was? It was fun and that's ok. When it came out a lot of critics complained that the plot was so simple but guess what, the Mario games are simple too.
You also have to consider that Nintendo is super protective of their properties, specially Mario so they had a big say on it. They kept it safe but its ok. It made the money and can't wait for sequels and spin off
You know it took an entire generation or two of people growing up with Super Mario for a proper Super Mario movie to be made, because the writers, directors, animators.... I mean common who hasn't played Super Mario? Definitely the ones geek enough to do animation.
I loved it in theaters!! Watching it in the big screen it was just perfect. Felt like I was a kid 🥹🥰
I saw this movie in theaters and i loved it!!! The nostalgia makes me teary eyed 🥹
I finally watched the movie today, and it was a blast with all of the references! There are so many! Jack Black was perfect for Bowser!
That eventual Smash Bros movie is gonna be 🔥🔥🔥
Honestly, during that training sequence, the song that was playing reminded me of Shrek 2
2:43 The penguins are from Super Mario 64 🧊
Never played one of these games in my life but I’ve heard of Mario Brothers and DK. So my enjoyment came from the boys’ very obvious enjoyment.
Yoshi’s so popular he gets his own movie lol (at least that’s what they made it seem unless he’s just appearing in the sequel then hell yea)
Here are the cast that I hope to appear in Super Mario Bros 2:
Chris Pratt- Mario
Anya Taylor-Joy- Princess Peach
Charlie Day- Luigi
Emma Stone or Zendaya- Princess Daisy
Jack Black- Bowsler
Walker Scobell- Bowsler Jr/ Diddy Kong
Keegan Michael-Key- Toad
Seth Rogen- Donkey Kong
Fred Armisen- Cranky Kong
with Bill Hader as Waluigi
and Pedro Pascal as Wario (I also heard Jack Black, who voice Bowsler, wanted Pedro to voice Wario)
Wish that the sequel could get a 2hrs run-time this time
