Super Mario the Movie

[Chrispy_G]

They've moved the release out of December(Fear Avatar!) and into April for Easter Weekend, basically the same window Sonic did so well with recently.

Smart move.

^We can only hope this would lead to some re-writes.

IDK, how much can really change in only four months time?

Anyway... Take this with a grain of salt, but apparently the plot has gotten leaked.

Teaser drops tonight and the poster is out. At the very least it looks like Mario.

[Dyrakro]

Looks really interesting, flying islands remind me of Dragon Hunters, also nice to see some of the newer enemies (Biddybuds) in there. Art style looks a little strange (not bad!), as Mario looks like a stop-motion puppet

I've heard people say that Detective Pikachu, Sonic 1 & 2 and the Mario movie are part of a Smash Bros movie universe.

Or is this people just saying things because everything gets linked as a cinematic universe now?

I'm pretty sure they're joking, Jeff

[Jeff-Goldblum2]

Remember that Donkey Kong is supposed to show up in this.

Then again Donkey Kong is usually more connected to the Mario property than the others anyway.

I realize it was mostly just fan speculation.

[Gigantis]

That teaser we just got actully looks REALLY good!

[Cryptid_Liker]

Animation's great, Jack Black and Keegan Michael-Key are pretty good at their roles, but I'm definitely not getting used to literally just Chris Pratt Mario's voice any time soon.

[GigaBowserG]

Cute trailer. Bowser looks and acts wicked, love that.

[Jeff-Goldblum2]

Good trailer

[Jetty_Jags]

I was honestly pretty skeptical of the voice cast (as most people where), but I'm glad there seems to be a good deal of actual voice acting, rather than "Bowser" as read by Jack Black. Obviously this is a limited sample size, and Mario is the least distinct of those shown, but color me surprised. The animation also looks a great deal better than most of illumination's previous works.

[LSD Jellyfish]

Looks good. One thing that I'm very happy about is how visually striking and colorful the animation is. I'm glad that we can already see that the film will explore a wide of mario biomes, and not just stick to grassy landscapes.

Also excited about the penguins! It's a little weird, but I'm glad they show the Penguins from SM64 as a race, and some power-star! I wonder if the film will be about Mario and Co. collecting Stars like the games. That would be fun!

Who else already loves Kamek?

[Tyrant_Lizard_King]

New trailer today. Should hopefully hear more dialogue from most the major characters. Probably get a better idea of the direction Pratt is going with the role.

[Cryptid_Liker]

Trailer's out and honestly, Chris Pratt's Mario is kinda growing on me. Still wish they got Martinet back but as it is, he's pretty okay.

[StardustGenius]

Pretty good! I like the art direction way more than I hoped. It's literally the Nintendo models with Hollywood budgets for the facial sculpting. Fire Peach is a pretty cool visual.

[Jetty_Jags]

I was not expecting to be excited for this movie, but I kinda am now.

[LegendZilla]

^I would've saved Donkey Kong for the sequel, but for now I'll remain cautiously optimistic.
