Why? What is this movie even about?

I like Mario cause he's an Italian plumber and fixes leaky pipes. This movie is long overdue. Walmart right now is selling Video Game Rocker chairs store has like 40 if them with Bowzer and Mario variants.

I am sure that the plot of the movie will be that Mario has to stop Bowser, just like in the games.

What I liked specifically from the trailer was just how they have brought the characters of Mario and Bowser to life. Bowser totally has a DBZ Frieza feel to him which is exactly the way I pictured Bowser behaving all of these years. With Mario, they definitely based his personality and animation style off of Fix-It Felix from Disney's Wreck-It Ralph (who, to be fair, was basically an homage to Mario in the first place, but Felix was a very successful adaptation of Mario to film which is actually a pretty difficult thing to do right). Both of what I saw from these characters in the teaser really works without betraying gamer's imaginations of how the characters might act and their personalities. I was wondering how they would do Mario, as this will be the hardest hurdle to jump for the movie, and I wasn't thrilled when I heard that Chris Pratt would be voicing the part (at the beginning, I was imagining more of a Jurassic World bad-boy type and it just didn't fit in my mind). I am liking what I am seeing so far though.

Yeah, the trailer got me hyped too. Jack Black nailed the Bowser voice, and its rumored there might be a musical bit involving Bowser in the movie (which would be great).

Luckily enough I've got a 7 year old who's pumped for the movie too (so I won't look like a big creeper when I go to see it on opening night).

So from the sounds of it this won't be the Mario Movie 2 sequel that was teased at the end of the 1993 movie? I get recasting Mario's original actor since he's passed away, but why replace Dennis Hopper's Bowser? He was brilliant in the first one and is still available for acting.

Dude, Dennis hopper died in 2010, unless there is another actor with same name.

Well, that's a downer; I knew Hoskins passed away but wasn't aware of Hopper passing away as well. :-(

Nice, Pratt has given the modding a community a new loophole to get around Nintendo Legal's draconian Cease and Desist orders. It's Mario but not Mario.

Looks fun 😀

If there ever was an actor you SHOULD have assumed! Thanks for the laugh though bruh
