What the FUCK were they smoking when they made the old Super Mario Brothers movie?
>>222522378soul. we didn't know how good we had it.
>>222522378haha dude they ate the mushrooms you know like super duper mario does haha but they got really high on the mushroom hehe like drug
>the couple that made the Super Mario Bros Movie made the kino known as D.O.A.Absolute kino. They also did music videos and created Max Headroom.Also the Illumination Mario movies are absolute dog shit.
>>222522378Everyone knew it was a shit show, Hoskins and Leguizamo were even doing shots in between takes.
>>222522378its filled to the brim with wall to wall overt occult symbolism
>>222522378probably the smoking the same shit when they made dragonball evolution
>>222522378The script was written in 1991, and then continuously rewritten all throughout production. The last mainline Mario game released before the movie was super Mario world snes.The average zoomer cannot conceptualize just how little material and world building existed in the Mario games at this time. Mario didn't talk and there was still no story in the games other than "princess get kidnapped".Hindsight being 20/20 the steampunk movie did a pretty good job considering what little they had to work with. It's infinitely better than the retarded new cartoon movies
>>222523304>Mario didn't talkWe had the Super Mario Super Show for years prior to the movie, zoomzoom.
>>222523304>Mario didn't talk and there was still no story in the games other than "princess get kidnapped".Youre a zoom zoom retard that doesnt know that before this movie came out, there was a Super Mario tv show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkWYP95WbbY
>>222522810qrd?
>>222522378every screenshot from this movie looks great, is it worth watching?
>>222523983>DUDE CHECKERBOARD FLOORS>DUDE TRIANGLES>DUDE SPIRALS>DUUUUUUUDE
>>222522810>>222523983Just like Super Mario 3 huh?
MONKEY
>>222523836>>222523970Dumb zoomers, the movie was explicitly written not to have anything to do with the 80s cartoon which had nothing to do with games, fucking retards.
I mean, the game consists of a guy in overalls running left to right while jumping on the occasional turtle. Any sort of media adaption is going to have to take a lot of liberties.
>>222523304>>222524257This
this was back when adaptations could be made by arthouse directors and be incredibly fucking loose with the source material. it was a much better and creative time
>>222524228>I'm not the zoomer, you're the zoomer!But you didn't know about the live-action Mario played by Captain Lou?
>>222522810every entertainment property in existence has occult symbolism. Some are subtle some are in your face obvious.
>>222522378The GOOD shit
>>222523304>The average zoomer cannot conceptualize just how little material and world building existed in the Mario games at this time.Lmao this dumbfuck really said " just how little material and world building existed in the Mario games" for the early 90s
>>222524342The 1992 movie had nothing to do with the 80s show, (which Nintendo of Japan despised), lil z
>>222524490Yeah, there sure was a lot of lore and world building here....
Where's my pizza?
>>222524490Your favorite Mario games didn't exist in 1990, kiddo
>>222524305Jodorowsky wanted to have a thousand imperial soldier drop their pants before the emperor of the universe and simultaneously take a shit to show their submission or something. >it was a much better and creative timeFuck that retard.
>>222522594What a twist!
>>222524685sounds very much in line with the spirit of dune to me. completely fanatical, post-mythical and orientalist.
>>222522378oh FUCK you OPhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_3XC94yzeo
>>222522378I see those goombas everytime I look at Andrew Tate.
>>222523304There was a cartoon, comics, and lore in the manuals
>>222522378They weren't smoking anything. It was a fungus. That made that very clear multiple times throughout the movie.
>>222522378Gaming Historian on youtube has a nice in-depth video on how that movie came to be what it was. But basically it was a weird product of its time. A lot of the people involved had this idea that taking a kid's property and making a "gritty" movie out of it was the thing to do because of the success of the Batman movies. Nintendo gave the rights to a smaller production company because the bigger studios wouldn't give them full right to the merchandising. Also the directors were pretentious as fuck and created an unbearable working environment.
>>222524727Not a word of that is in any of the books. I think the only mention of feces is in moisture processing.
The idea of a parallel world of humans descended from dinos was supremely retarded but I will admit the set design was kino
>>222525692>The idea of a parallel world of humans descended from dinos was supremely retardedIt was pretty commonplace in kid's media at the time.
>>222522378DMT
>>222524305nu-wars 2 was done by an art house director and it was a disaster.
>>222525558i said that i thought it was in the spirit of the books, not that it was in the books. i already said that i am all for loose adaptation with lots of creative liberties as long as the director is truly a creative. even tarkovsky had similar thoughts on making a possible adaptation of the brothers karamazov but have it be a rather loose
>you know this movie that was garbage in every way and which everyone hates? yeah it actually had SOUL! now that it is OLD, it automatically became GOOD!so tired of this reddit revisionism
