What we do in the shadows? wow. Nice. Great movie imo. I hope they also react to the show which is even funnier imo
I love Inception & ATSV! I can’t wait for those!
I can’t help but notice you guys never reacted to Puss in Boots: The Last Wish. You’re missing out! The writing gets pretty deep & heartwarming and the animation is absolutely stunning!
That film along with Spider-Verse & Arcane have redefined animations. TMNT: Mutant Mayhem is another great story that utilizes this art style well. I was blown away watching it in 3D.
Kamek is voice by Kevin Michael Richardson
React to Hocus Pocus movie next
I tried signing up for Beyond TWICE and the website charged me twice and it keeps telling me I don’t have a subscription… I don’t know what to do
Considering that the Lumas are fated to transform into new planets/galaxies, seeing one that's just embraced the inevitability of its demise is a pretty good in-joke.
That planet is gonna be some Mustafar/Malakor level shit
@addictedtochocolate920 Now that's a place I'd like to live
I imagine the place it turns into is ghostly and haunted, like you'll just get lost and face weird depressing ghosts in there.
@@addictedtochocolate920Melty Molten Galaxy then
@@abaddonarts1129sounds wonderful lmao
😅
One tidbit I like is the reason why Brooklyn suddenly got flood is probably because Bowser smelt all the ice in Penguin land which lead it all leaking to the pipe somewhere.
Personally, I believed that the flooding was caused by Wario and Waluigi.
@@OptmiusPrime114i see them beimg petty and causing that just cuz they could😂😂😂😂
@@OptmiusPrime114why would u think that
@@gualacheesesteakwah why wouldn’t they
@@sbp1763 why would Waluigi & Wario have access to a bunch of water and why would they flood Brooklyn for no reason? If it was them then they would’ve been shown in the post credits, not Yoshi
Jack Black gave such an incredible performance as Bowser. Equal parts menacing, hilarious, and just a little pathetic. And of course there's his banger song, "Peaches". Seriously, that will live rent free in my head forever.
His live action music video of it is glorious as well.
When Charles Martinet retired from voice acting, I thought we wouldn’t hear from him again. Now the guy is the ambassador of the whole franchise. He totally deserves it!
Martinez haha. It's Martinet.
@@Nekotaku_TV Oops. Auto correct 😅
@@donovan802 Haha glad it was that.
@Nekotaku_TV But what if it wasnt?
@@ivankawnartist Then it'd be embarassing.
Jack Black is great as bowser. You Either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villian
Aaron Taylor Johnson has now done BOTH. First as Quicksilver then as Kraven the Hunter.
Troy Baker played both Batman and Joker in the Batman vs TMNT animated movie.
@@cinemaclips6074 oh that’s a great example
@@tristanmilner9511 that’s a even better example tbh. List could go on 🤜🤛
I agree with you
We hope see jack black again as bowser in super mario bros 2 movie
a-Ha's "Take On Me" was the Number 1 song on the Billboard charts when the NES first launched in New York.
I have a funny feeling that the reason they went with that song for that scene was because it can sound like they're saying "Ta - *Kong* - me".
The music in general may be the "worst" part of the movie. Not because any of it is a bad fit or anything. But the music Brian Tyler composed is so great. Consider how great everybody thinks the super star theme was at the end, and then you find out he had to fight for that and Nintendo was instead going to use... Jump by Van Halen. And *that* choice is clearly just because of the name.
@@thewolfman6460 Agreed on the music. It actually brought the movie down significantly for me. They had such amazing Mario music to choose from.
@@ImAlsoMerobiba they had special tracks for all those scenes, look in the movie's soundtrack, they all go unused :(
17:30 everyone’s PTSD. Dread it. Run from it. The Blue Shell arrives all the same.
That Blue Shell in the Mario Kart game is just evil.
@@joeldean2706 it’s like Wreck It Ralph. It’s just doing it’s job but everyone hates it
@@thethundernado6670 yeah pretty much. 😄
Unless you have a mega horn.
I remember hearing that instead of 'Take On Me' when traveling to the Monkey kingdom, they had one of the songs from the Donkey Kong games. Illumination decided to use the final song instead, despite the scene apparently having been animated to the beats of the game's music.
The studio influence in the music department was as obvious as you could make it. Like we really thought there would be a need for pop songs when… I don’t know… this is the MARIO series? And the DONKEY KONG series???
It's actually a mash up of a bunch of music from the Donkey Kong Country games. It sounds fantastic, you can find it on the official soundtrack. All the 80s tracks had great Mario music scores made for them but they were replaced with crappy 80s tracks.
Sonic, Pokemon, The Last of Us and now Mario, finally after so much time we live in an era where adaptations of video games to movies and series in animation or live action work and have quality, how I would like a Metroid movie, F Zero or Kirby
Kirby would either be very cute or very horrific
Just think, people said this about comics in the early 2000s. About twenty or thirty years we'll get Smash Bros Infinity War
Right? They're all so, so good. Then you have Halo coming out of nowhere and squandering the IP
Mario wasn't bad, but it certainly wasn't good either.
And an animated Star Fox film.
I like how peach just murders King Bob-Omb, he wasn't even attacking anyone
“God i love when that thing says its own name” made me laugh so hard
Nintendo / Illumination wrote a song for Jack Black and asked for his input and his thoughts, and he wrote the Peaches song instead, performed it and sent it back to them and they loved it. So he kind of took it on himself to write the song for it probably without it even being in his contract.
Also, a funny note, in the song he says, "Peach, you're so cool!"
and it reminded me of when Miyamoto introduced the cast of characters for the movie in the Nintendo Direct when he said about Chris Pratt "He's so cool!" I wonder if Miyamoto was referencing the song in a subtle way since it certainly would have been written and most likely done by that point.
Not even true
Jack didn’t wanna sing and didn’t plan to
The director came to Jack and said we want u to sing
And he was like I don’t know I don’t really feel like it
And they showed him the song and he was like this is funny I’m in
I always thought he said “ Peach your so cruel” 😂Lmao
14:02 Rick: That’s just theft… aaaand murder. Manslaughter.
Calvin: They weren’t intending to kill him!
Eric: They don’t follow those laws here.
😂😂😂😂
If you see the body roll out of the way, so it just damage to property
I love the idea that Bowser took Ludwig's piano and most likely had him write a wholeass song for Peach, and Ludwig was like "...ok?".
what
Yeah from what my mom told me, they used to play Take On Me all the time during the 80s which is why they used it for the DK driving scene lol
I think the reason they used the real life songs was just to play it safe. I think they wanted to make sure they made a good movie, so they played a lot of things safe including the music. A lot of those songs are ones that have been used over and over. They know they work, so they did it.
Well it made it worse so that didn't work... playing it safe would have been to only use Nintendo music.
I thought the music's were great choices. I don't understand what the issue was with it
@@Nekotaku_TV I loved the mix of Nintendo music and pop culture music.
@@Nekotaku_TVCompletely subjective.
@@galonski64 The issue people had was that members of the crew admitted that they had a score made for the scenes that used mario music mixed and synced to the movement of the animation, but they went with jarring pop music instead because of studio intervention. The kart scene in particular could have felt like it fit more instead of feeling like a weird music video in the middle of the movie.
"your dads right!" has to be the best line in this movie
This movie wasn’t perfect. But as someone who grew up playing Mario, this was definitely the most fun I had in theaters. It was great to see “the Mickey Mouse of video games” getting a more respectful movie.
Also, I know this is wishful thinking, but I wished we had this scene 😂:
Masahiro Sakurai: “the Super Mario brothers”. You think your the only heroes in the universe. Mr. Mario, you just became part of an even bigger universe than you could ever imagine.
Mario: Who are you?
Masahiro Sakurai: Masahiro Sakurai. Director of Nintendo.
Mario: Oh.
Masahiro Sakurai: I’m here to talk to you about the super smash bros initiative.
“DO PRINCESSES FIND HIM ATTRACTIVE!?”
“THEY DO IF THEY HAVE GOOD TASTE!”
The Superstars scene got us all hyped in the theater 🤩
To think we were so close to losing that scene with that soundtrack.
The studio execs wanted to use another popular song instead, but Brian Tyler fought against it and insisted on using his song "Superstars" for that scene. And it was the right call.
@@ThatLaloBoy I didn’t mind the pop songs too much but for a scene like that, it was great Tyler fought back.
"They do move in herds" made me spit a little bit of dinner in surprise and laughter 😂
The nostalgia is real! I’m so glad you guys are finally reacting to this! You absolutely NEED to check out:
- Puss in Boots: The Last Wish
- Across the Spider-Verse
- TMNT: Mutant Mayhem
Just absolute gorgeous animations & heartfelt storytelling! 🔥
So about that second one ;)
Surprised they haven't done the Puss In Boots movies. It's surely right up their street visually stunning, humour, lore etc.
If I ever meet the guy who did the music for this I’m going to confess my undying love. Love how many references he got in there!
Brian Tyler composed the music. Pretty sure he consulted Koji Kondo on the score as well
Brian Tyler is phenomenal.
Funny enough, he had/wanted to put more thematically made scores but a lot of them were vetoed in favor of putting in cameo songs.
Rumor that Chris Hemsworth is going to voice Starfox in an animated Starfox movie. If true looks like they are doing a super smash bros multiverse
I just hope they go full 80's dark fantasy movie with a Zelda movie
I can't believe Chris Hemsworth is going to be voicing the entire Star Fox team. That's some incredible range.
Jack Black did an amazing on Bowzer. Hope Wario comes in the next or third movie.
Shoutout to Luigi for being the ultimate wingman, upping his bro even at risk of his own life.
I said "they do move in heards!" about the Yoshis too. lol.
I really enjoyed your reaction to this movie.🔥🔥🔥 Mr.Calvin looked like he was about to pass out around 20:52.😂
Man was fighting to stay awake throughout the whole thing 😂 I know that feeling when trying watch something
5:46 their mouths open when Francis went out the window😦🤣
Luigi's Mandion, Sunshine, and Super Mario Galaxy are probably my favorite mario games out there. Paper mario is up there as well. All very much worth playing.
Yes! You guys read my mind. I was about to binge some Super Mario Bros. reactions, now that I saw it, and was hoping you guys had one!
1:16 That pain!!! 🤣
Is no one else gonna talk about how Rick accidentally cosplayed as Spike? 😂 I mean, no joke, the resemblance is uncanny.
So here’s the thing. There was an entirely original score but illumination wanted the licensed music. Every scene that had licensed music had a Mario themed original song, and they are all part of the official OST if you look it up.
The Yoshi end credit scene gave me 1998 Godzilla vibes haha.
OH NO NOT THE BLUE SHELL!!!!!!!!!!!!
My favorite small part is cat Mario being cheered for and him making biscuits
My 4 year old is still singing the Peaches song months later
When I saw the movie in theaters, it was amazing
I wish this movie had fully original score without licensed music. But other than that, this movie was close to perfection.
Still don't understand why they cut an original song in favor of Take on Me of all things.
@@qrowingthe score was recorded after the film was complete, the licensed music was intended to be in the film, as they're suggesting it takes place in the 80s. No Sleep Til Brooklyn = the Mario Bros live in Brooklyn, I Need A Hero = self explanatory, Take On Me = number 1 song on the Billboard charts when the NES launched in New York City on October 18th, 1985 (notice how Blondie Kong is dressed like Sonny from Miami Vice in that scene, 80s reference. Again, this film was complete before the score was composed) Thunderstruck = they should've went with something else here, either unused score or an actual 80s song, like Heading Out to the Highway or Freewheel Burning (both Judas Priest songs)
1:17 My exact reaction Eric. The Lord of the Rings is my favorite movie.
I will never understand Rick's tastes
This movie made me cry!
only because we made a smash bros live action parody xD
i was so happy they made a new mario movie! went to the theater in costume! was so worth the wait
The funny thing is, those music choices WERE a "we can, so why not" thing. They actually already made music for those scenes, but then opted to change to the other songs
The only music use that I felt was too much was the beginning Kill Bill penguin. I just love Take Me On and I need a hero so I'm always happy to hear it.
The music isn't as egregious as other illumination movies. The Addam's family music was terrible.
The "Gasmask shyguys" are actily called Snifits they are my favorite mario charicters.
1:16 Eric just org**m'ed to Rick's answer. Hahahaha
I think it’s cool they got the original Mario & Luigi voice to play their dad. I saw that he retired from voice acting after this. Did you guys look at the pictures on the wall at the diner? There were Mike Tyson Punchout photos and Duck Hunt photos. 5:03 it’s Dug from “Up”. 11:47 I love how Jack Black wrote/co-wrote most of the songs in the movie. The song “Peaches” just sounds like something he would write.
it is a fitting way for charles martinet's last voice acting role would be mario and luigi's father
Idk if they confirmed this completely but there’s a time line of a Nintendo cinematic universe with Kirby, legend of Zelda, etc. Besides that I’ve been waiting a long time for this reaction and it did not disappoint 😂
ONE OF THE BEST ANIMATED MOVIES THIS YEAR!
Mario: Until next time, everybody….
Everybody: …Do the Mario!
Seeing this in theaters was such a treat 😁
10:25 Good question, you have now been promoted to immortality.
I just want to see more Mario characters to appear in the sequel, this movie is a surprise masterpiece!!
10:55 B.S., you spent the whole day trying to train him!
I love this movie SO MUCH! It was so much fun and it looked amazing
I was hoping for Mutant Mayhem but this is good too
mutant mayhem is objectively better
I loved this movie.. seen it 3 times in theaters not one empty seat either time..us non TH-camrs love needle drops like this movie had...8/10 for me
seeing any movie more than once is a waste of time
LOL Erics reaction to Ricks comment about LOTR 😂
Superstar Music: (plays)
Everyone: (head nod)
Spike is the boss of the game Wrecking Crew that had Mario in it, which is the business Spike runs in this movie
if you guys can, donkey kong 64 is super fun. You get to play as multiple Kongs and overall it is a very well done game. so many fond memories growing up playing that game.
I cannot wait for the inevitable Morbius and Flash reactions for the same exact reasons😂
I believe the toad Royal guards were designed based on the Swiss Guards
This movie was a blast. Though I will admit that the licensed music took me out of it every time. It also stings because the official soundtrack has songs that were supposed to play in those sections. Hoping someone makes a fan edit that changes the music out where possible.
This got me so excited for Mario Wonder
Was just making my lunch and suddenly remembered I could watch this today and it’s made my day hahah so excited
I remember when this movie came out. Yall really reacted the old school one 😂
I think the reason Mario didn't get the fire flower is because he'll learn psychokinesis in the future.
42:25 Calvin that was Mario Maker lvl 1 by Aaron "Humble Begginings" 😂 you did not finish it so you tried it again at the end of the stream
The movie was really fun!
The Shades make Rick look like Steven Segal to me.😂😂
Must be hard being in your group and mostly not being able to go to the movies or watch shows you want because you have to wait for the group reaction.
Not really, cause they can. Plenty of movies some of them saw in theaters cause they just couldn't wait. Like take Spider-Verse. Most of the crew was fine waiting to do a reaction, but Aaron really wanted to see it, so him and Melanie saw it with their family. And plenty of shows they watch on their own too. They can watch whatever they want, but are just fine waiting for most things (also its their job, so imagine you'd find it easier to wait for things knowing you make a living off it)
10:49-11:08 reminds me of DBZ Abridged with that one dude that says "Yeah, fuck Goku/this city!" 😂😂
If you want to see and listen to one of Brian Tyler's early masterpieces, you absolutely have to watch _Six-String Samurai_ (1998), one of his first jobs as a film composer.
21:24 Hahahhaa! Nice Shout out!
Damn it was the exact same experience for me too with fellowship of the ring as Rick … took me a few months before I have it a proper watch ….
Fun fact Chris Pratt was mario in this movie and he played 2 roles in the same year and the same song no sleep till Brooklyn started playing in both the movies Chris Pratt was in this year
I didn't know it was Jack Black until he sang peaches lmao
Rick whiffing on Geno’s name. Then Aaron say he’s never played it. Remake is coming out in a couple months boys!
2:48 we all thought the exact same thing when we first saw the penguins
been waiting for this one!!
In terms of a sequel I hope they don't go straight to Wario and Waluigi, I'd like to see King Wart from Mario 2 make an appearance since Shy Guys first came from Mario 2 (obv doki doki panic but...)
I loved Luma😂
10:44 older twin brother.
holyshit a “Warriors of Virtue” reference
My number one thought every time I watch this (which is once a day thanks to my toddler) all I can think about is how much the music rights cost hahahaha
Chris Pratt did good as Mario and he should the normal Mario voice during there commercial and it sounded great
15:06 Seth Rogen laughs
This is a movie that makes me extremely happy
calvin was trying so hard to stay awake lol
There are 2 things a dog can have in this world, his bone and his dignity, when you take one of those things, there will be problems not even you can get out of! 5:00 - 5:07 - 5:16 - 5:20 - 5:23 - 5:42 and 5:44
17:53 it’s the eel from 64

@@bemasaberwyn55 that’s that bastards name? Thank you now I can curse them by name!!!
If I had to compare this movie to another, it have to be "Ratchet & Clank." (Not just because both were made by Universal.)
Mario and Ratchet are both small time wokers who dream of doing bigger things. Both of them also have "accidents" at the start of their movies. (Mr. Microns ship for Ratchet, and the plumbing problem for Mario.)
Mario and Ratchet also go through character development throughout their movies. (Both of them also want to help others and do good, and become heroes in their own rights.)
It took me some time to realize how similar both of these movies are. (If they haven't seen the Ratchet & Clank movie yet, I highly recommend they watch it.)
Super Sonic and Super Shadow 21:54
Another amazing video
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
Ke Huy Quan as Yoshi
and Pedro Pascal as Wario (I also heard Jack Black, who voice Bowsler, wanted Pedro to voice Wario)
yoshi shouldn't talk that would be a horrible idea.
I have a hard time believing the idea of adding the licensed music was either a case of "real mixed with fantasy" or the "this is for the parents watching" considering they made custom music for those moments in the movie that are only found on the OST and we don't have a cut that has the custom music in place. And while I'm not completely bothered by it, the story could have been better (as noted in Charriii5's rewrite), plus I was REALLY hoping they would go more for the idea of it being a single world rather than 2 separate dimensions, because I feel like that idea is a little overused when it comes to wanting to do video game story adaptations. And I'm fairly certain we've dropped the "they're from Brooklyn" plot a LONG time ago. Like, it would have made much more sense to me if it was New Donk City instead, plus they missed out on a perfect "Brickland" joke as a take on where the bros are from. Granted this may just also be a case of "the current Nintendo lore masters" at the company being very restrictive and in an "older mindset" considering the weird stance they currently have with NPCs like the Toads and not having any gender diversity or age differences (despite Toadette showing up on a poster in Toadtown and recently was featured in Odyssey, but then again Toadsworth hasn't been featured in anything for a long while despite recently learning via concept art for the movie that we actually could have gotten the different Toads INCLUDING TOADETTE AND TOADSWORTH), although that's just me speculating.
Explanations:
- Spike is from the Wrecking Crew game and he would tend to be a main obstacle/hazard in the game.
- A main reason why there weren't many Castlevania-isms in the Netflix show (especially when it got to the 3rd and 4th seasons) was because the main director came out and said he didn't like the games. It's a big reason why Grant never showed up despite being a key character in the story adaptation. So the game deviations (along with the "very bad for him" reason why the writer was taken off the project) have made me feel mixed about the show. Like there are interesting ideas and the plot was ok, but it felt a little too "edgy" for my taste. Early on it captured the aspect of tragedy the series is known for, but as it went on, it felt a little too "try hard", but apparently that tends to be what happens when that particular writer gets paired with a project.
- Honestly at this point, I would not want any of the current Mario RPG writers on a project any time soon as noted by previous "Nintendo Lore Masters" issue. That's actually been a big point of contention in recent years. Also, I don't really trust the current writers for the Paper Mario games yet, like granted, I've heard good stuff about Oragami King and its writing but its also a case of "there is still the very bad backwards thinking wrinkle that they think they HAVE to rely on paper as the main gimmick and are only ALLOWED to make changes to characters if it actively breaks the immersion" along with "Super Mario World (the game) characters ONLY". So unless they can fix their hypocritical stance of actual world building (because somehow now the Paper Mario games are the bland ones in terms of world while every other game is doing new and interesting expansions on it and featuring aspects like female Goombas and Toads which the Paper Mario games did first), I don't want them anywhere near something like this. Also, don;t expect ANYTHING from Super Mario RPG to make it into anything anytime soon, because literally until the recent remake announcement, Nintendo barely wanted ANYTHING to do with that game or anything tied to it. It was literally to the point that only Sakurai knew how beloved those characters and aspects were wanted back that he was the only one championing any sort of recognition for it, but could only manifest into a Mii costume of Geno. And the only other cameo Geno got in one of the Mario & Luigi games was later removed in its remake. So yeah until the remake was a thing, SMRPG had gotten the shortest end of the shortest stick in terms of everything. Like it's about around the F-Zero series level of neglect.
- They DID announce the future movie projects already, I forget exactly, but I DO know one of the movie projects that was announced was a Luigi's Mansion movie.
- That opening construction site parkour segment layout was based off level 1-1 from the first Super Mario game.
15:05 Seth Rogan's laugh fits DK so well
And I said a similar thing about Mini Mario is like Ant-Man
I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
