They had a really easy theme of parenting affecting their kids with Jr trying to destroy the world from Bowser’s bad parenting and the lumas rebuilding it from Rosalina’s good parenting yet they botched it.

The Mario Galaxy game genuinely had more of an ongoing plot than the movie and was more cinematic.
>Greater sense of scale and tension
>Bold, operatic soundtrack
>Rosalina is the guardian steering the mission, saves Mario after all hope seems lost at the start
>Rosalina's backstory was more detailed and she had more dialogue than the movie
>Encounters with Bowser and Bowser Jr. peppered throughout the game to raise the stakes
>Epic finale where a supernova explosion happens from a black hole singularity, resetting the universe and making Rosalina into a God
The movie is a fucking failure on every level

You're talking about games. MOVIES are supposed to have stories.

I didn't play the games and I'm still disappointed, movie is a spastic mess and a huge downgrade from the first one in every respect.
Feels like there were two sides trying to push two different concepts (dunno, the French and the Japanese?), and then corporate Nintendo meddled with it and pushed it through with unfinished script because they had to by certain date or something.

>we need star fox leading the charge into every battle
>we need filler plotline with yoshi and babies for reference
>we need mario and peach to do a shallow mario maker reference
the movie mainly fucking blows because there is no actual focus on a theme. They do not use the Galaxy games thematic setting in the slightest except for 10 second long animations of gurlboss peach flying past a few planetoids. Every single time they enter a new planet / setting its always through crash landing with a piloted ship. Movie should have been a far more direct adaptation of the first mario galaxy, with peach getting kidnapped along with bowser by jr. then have mario luigi yoshi meet rosalina and have them collect power stars, you know, the main mcguffin from the first film to add some continuity to the universe. Have them split up during the hunt, there you can throw in the back to back scenes of references with them doing things from the Galaxy games.

you're a retarded shill.
basically every mario game has more story than the mario galaxy movie. which is fucking pathetic for a movie to have worse and far more shallow writing than video games.

every character in the movie is treated better in the games media:
Rosalina is a no brainier with her actually being a real character in the game. with writing that has real substance and captures the human condition. WHICH THEY REMOVED in the movie.
another example ROB:
in the Mario Galaxy movie: a substanceless, key jingly reference with a horrible cringe voice, bad attempts at humor and bad writing.
in Subspace Emissary: Has an actual character arc, grows as a character, experiences loss, Has defining moments that actually make you feel something.. all done through 'show don't tell' instead of cringey exposition. Not even a single line of dialogue is needed.

This one fucking irrelevant character in Smash bros has better writing and better treatment than ANY character in the mario movie. None of them even have a fucking character arc let alone competent writing that isn't completely devoid of intelligence and heart.

Sorry faggot but that's way more substance than the trash movie got. Your movie is shit.
Instead of slochy cringe corpo trash they could have done something human with Rosalina if they had anyone with a brain and soul working for that dogshit company.
even the sonic movie had "a light that shines even after the star is gone" before the fucked it up with a cringe joke.

Saw it today, pretty entertaining. I feel like they should have explained how Bowser Jr. managed to create that entire fleet and planet though, even if it's through a joke scene. It was a little much to just accept that

Of the numerous things wrong with this movie, the one that pissed me off the most was that the pace was so ADHD, they couldn't even linger on a musical theme for long enough to appreciate it. You get like 4 bars of an orchestral version of a theme from the game, and your mouth muscles just barely begin to actuate a smirk in recognition, and then the music changes, because the scene changed, because this movie can't allow your eyeballs to rest for even a fraction of a second. This is peak tiktok generation media. If anything on the screen stagnates for a moment, the audience will whip out their phones and start scrolling vertical format video feeds, so you have to absolutely assault them with incongruent flashes of color and noise, and not let up until the credits roll.

Think of an average critic who's never played a Nintendo game outside of maybe SMB 1 as a kid. You think they're going to give two fucks about seeing Fox, Birdo, Wart, and all the other people? Imagine you went to see a movie and every other scene is shit like "and then they went to see Blongus! Then they went to the Poople dimension! Oh look it's Princess Pumbo!! You wouldn't give a shit. Like >>736402271 said it's basically a movie for the tiktok generation, but even worse because if you don't get the references then the movie isn't even a movie. It's like a worse version of Rise of the Skywalker.

>>736402271
The first movie had the fire flower field scene where Peach talked about how she became a princess and wondered why she doesn't have a family, the Galaxy movie not being able to do the same for Rosalina or any of the other characters in the movie is a damn shame.

>>736402249
Because even the galaxy game had a plot and that's a fucking game.
the game functions better as a more respectable movie than the movie does. Try rubbing 2 brain cells together and thinking.

Listen, if a female character solves all her problems with violence, is inexplicitly stronger than all the male characters around her, and only "loses" in the fact of cheap tricks or deception, she's probably a girlboss.

Huge plot hole, if she could still use her powers why did she job so hard and why did she wait so long to break free.
They destroyed her actual role as a magical cosmic entity that helps you, and instead ruined her character by making her way overpowered only to then back peddle on that immediately like a bunch of skitzo niggers who don't know what the fuck they're doing.
She's a fucking jobber like Aqua in KH3. terrible writing.

and a well written scene would have something actually interesting happen like maybe peach could do a cool wager (cause it was y'know a casino), maybe reincorporate some gambling skill she demonstrated or picked up earlier in the movie from another character, but no it's just "and then the protagonist hit everyone in the room"

The problem with this "theme" is that it's only present at the very beginning and very end with little substance in between those points, it doesn't feel particularly fleshed out in the slightest and isn't reinforced in the gameplay either.
The worst thing about movie being mediocre was it bringing out the retards who try to act like Galaxy had a profound plot that wasn't just Bowser kidnapped peach and also Rosalina is there digging in her butt at the observatory for 99% of the runtime.

But at least you'll get rule 34 of her getting raped by purple goo or whatever out of it so hope that's worth a shit movie.

He stopped her ship in mid-flight and sucked away all of the Stars that powered it, and that was before he went down to the planet to abduct Peach, and Rosalina couldn't do shit. In the second game his Galaxy Generator is actively sucking every ounce of power from her ship and she's unable to do anything or escape.

I want to buy a refurbished Wii U from Walmart so I can experience Star Fox Zero for myself.

Eh, I think if they gave a shit they coulda done something for Yoshi in the movie. Have him trying to return home to his island (first movie established multiple yoshis already) or something? Have him get homesick but find comfort in his new Mario family? Fucking anything. They set up tension between him and Toad and it goes nowhere.

Looks like you retards didn't play the game (or weren't paying attention). There's a subplot about Rosalina and here relationship with the Lumas told along side the main story. You can even buy that story separately as it's own story book.
>Isn't reinforced in the gameplay either.
The entire game you constantly force feed Lumas or ask Lumas to turn into various things to help you along your journey such as power ups, warp stars or even different planete to go to. It reinforces the theme all throughout the game.
Even the main story talks about the life cycle of lumas and Rosalina, you can't miss it. Its ridiculous that retards like you parroting these talking points still exist.

Are you going to give an actual argument? Or admit you were wrong? The game constantly reinforces the theme through the lumas transforming into various different things and you would know that if you actually played it.

>>muh storybook
Also, like I said, the main story very much twiddles it's thumb for most of the mid-point. The "cycle" does NOT play into any of the main objectives that you actually play through, and the biggest impact it has is the Lumas becoming the galaxies you explore which is basically flavor text that loosely justifies the main progression cycle. The game does barely anything with it's themes besides merely presenting them and asking the player to fill in the blanks, which is fine because it's a Mario platformer, and being disappointed the movie did little with them is valid, but I'm not going to sit here and pretend it's some life-changing profound narrative never before seen in the medium of video games.

Every galaxy you visit is powered by or tied to Lumas. You feed them Star Bits to grow or transform them into launch stars, planets, or even entire galaxies. Some Lumas explicitly sacrifice or evolve during missions. Collecting Power Stars (pieces of the broken cosmos) to power the Observatory and reach the center literally rebuilds order from chaos.

That's the gameplay directly playing into the story's themes, and yet you're trying to sit here and pretend that it doesn't at all?

Cool. Would've been nice if it informed any meaningful action of hers during 99% of the game rather than her standing there while Mario does all the work like the proper princess she is. The Lumas play more of an active role than her.
>That's why it's a game, it does what it can when gameplay is the main focus

Fair complaint also, and one I never brought up because I also agree. Being disappointed the movie didn't expand upon Galaxy's themes and trying to gas up Galaxy itself as some grand narrative experience are two different thing and I was plainly criticizing the latter.

Nobody was fucking saying this you fucking retard. You're just a Mario Disneyfanboy tard that's strawmanning because you can't stand any critique of your mediocre shite movie. You're sitting here and acting aloof, pretending as though you're coming from a place of bi-partisanship when it's obvious it's anything but. The fact the games stories' are simple should make them harder to miss, yet I've seen dozens of people giving the strong impression that they're too vapid to spot a story when it's put in front of them.

Making Rosalina Peach's older sister is going to make the doujins even hotter.

Nintendo will have the next 3D Mario establish the next generation of the Mario formula with Mario's daughter being saved by, I'm guessing a new male Mario-looking character, who teams up with Mario in the next 3D Mario for the Switch 2.
Mario is still the main character, says my personal leaker.
My gut tells me that he will team up with Bananza Pauline's boyfriend crush to save her from a new enemy who isn't Bowser, nor Wart, and probably isn't Bowser Jr. either because he teamed up with Mario in Bowser's Fury.

The galaxies being powered by the Lumas is an example of the theme which is why I brought it up, but none of the actions you take while in them reinforce this. None of the missions really pertain to it, none of the bosses do, Bowser's plot isn't really tied to it either. My main complaint, which I'll now reiterate, is that the game PRESENTS these themes but does nothing profound with them over the course of it's runtime. This is why I said the Lumas becoming the galaxies is the bare minimum. Maybe if the game mandated that we stopped and got to know which Lumas were turned into Galaxies, or see more Lumas excited of the kind of life they could harbor, or maybe even spend some time with a Luma who understands the importance of the cycle but is still ultimately scared of losing it's "self", I'd be singing a different tune. But nah, we got the storybook and then Rosalina waffling about life and death at the two ass ends of the game instead. Themes and such.

Nobody was saying this.

The weirdest part about the movie to me was that it couldn't even be nostalgia reference slop for the game it's supposed to be based on. They don't visit a single level or extensively feature any enemies or characters from Mario Galaxy in the fucking *Mario Galaxy Movie*. Rosalina is only in the first and last 5 minutes of the movie and anything else from Mario Galaxy is just insanely minor shit in the background almost all relegated to that scene where they're at the airport or whatever. Even when they're on the bee planet or wherever they were when they visit the queen bee for like 2 minutes, it looked nothing like the planet from the game and they couldn't even bother to make mario get the bee power up or something. The movie had more direct references to Odyssey than Galaxy. You also don't even really get the impression it's a space journey either, all the locations they visit look visually identical to the ones from the first movie that's just in the Mushroom Kingdom. And much as I got a kick out of seeing Star Fox in the movie, his inclusion felt random and unnecessary and like they only did it for reddit karma.

I really don't even care that it's a bad movie, if it just wants to be reference slop then fine whatever but it really couldn't even get that part right so in my eyes it was a complete and utter failure through and through.

>Being disappointed the movie didn't expand upon Galaxy's themes
It's not just not expanding them, they didn't even touch them. The first movie is more galaxy themed than this one because it has a suicidal luma and a bunch of characters scared of dying because Bowser is going to kill them with lava.
Here nothing happens. None of the lumas care about becoming a Galaxy, nobody fears dead. Rosalina's backstory is a cliffhanger for the next movie. No Bowser final moment where he realizes he is losing his empire. Nintendo sold me a product about X and the product has nothing to do with X so I am mad

You actively engage with Lumas' transformative nature constantly. Hungry Lumas eat Star Bits and grow into new galaxies or launch structures you then explore. Colored Lumas turn into Pull Stars, Launch Stars, or power-ups right in front of you during mission. That's not just "Surface level". Your progression literally depends on the Lumas, which helps reinforce the game's themes. Continue ignoring this like the dishonest autist you are, it's really hilarious.

There not making a direct adaptation of the games only using them as a basis to make a story around them. The third movie will be loosely based on the Mario Land games since Daisy will be introduced. The 4th movie if they make one will probably be around the Paper Mario/RPG series. They'll continue making the movies as long they keep making a shit ton of money at the movies. Also, merch and game sales.

You're literally just reiterating what you said before. You constantly INTERACT with this shit, but the prescence of a theme doesn't inherently make it meaningful, and I'm saying just SEEING the Lumas do the same thing over and over without actually exploring the particular implications or even their thoughts on it in a direct way that player are forced to engage with during the main story progression makes it bare minimum. It boils them down to a gameplay function and almost entirely strips any sort of impact seeing them transform into shit just to aid Mario could have, which is, of course, typical for a Mario platformer, but if you're actually going to sit here and espouse the effectiveness of the themes I'm going to examine it like I would any other game that tries to present a message and forms itself around said message.

Same as point 1-The Comet Observatory's main function of hub world is almost entirely divorced from her narratively and thematically and I doubt much would've changed if she hadn't given her express consent for him to use it.

Seeing Lumas transform over and over isn't isolated gameplay filler. The repetition builds familiarity with their childlike eagerness and helpful nature, which makes the climax hit harder. Their earlier transformations were small acts of growth and creation; the ending is the ultimate one.

You think they'd make Daisy Peach/Rosalina's a sibling too? I think they're doing the star child thing but only with the Princesses.

Trying to act smug and aloof is probably one of the most annoying and smarmy things you can do an internet debate to try and appear like you're winning. It's blatant how obvious it is, and it's honestly pathetic.
>Bowser did that by virtue of kidnapping Peach. Rosalina is a framing device, not the catalyst.
He literally cannot travel through space with Rosalina's help. If she doesn't help, the plot doesn't happen.
>The Comet Observatory's main function of hub world is almost entirely divorced from her narratively and thematically and I doubt much would've changed if she hadn't given her express consent for him to use it.
The comet observatory is the culmination of all of her backstory and themes. Did you not play the fucking game, you retard?
>No, that's Bowser, again.
No, it's Rosalina, because without her, he can't even save Peach at all.

You see, I'd be willing to buy into this is they'd actually bothered to flesh out Lumas as characters outside of the two (kinda) exceptions. Luma's eager willingness to help is borderline presented as a species trait that individuals very rarely deviate from, so I think seeing more of them express doubt, worry, wonder, curiosity, confusion, etc. would've gone a long way in making the fact that so many of them unerringly threw themselves into effective death and rebirth hit more. Seeming just do what they've always been doing but on a grander scale serves to reinforce their behavior, but I'd argue it doesn't particularly expand upon it in a meaningful way.

>>736384218
Third best opening of all time for an animated film. Cry about it.

>>736405772
They're not flawed little humans wrestling with existential dread; they're innocent, childlike star children whose entire existence is defined by joyful transformation and found family under Rosalina's maternal care. Their "species trait" of helpful selflessness makes the mass sacrifice at the black hole more powerful,

What's with the characters making no sense? Feels like they got alzheimer like the AI wrote their lines

Mario was going to find a way to do it anyways because it's Mario, and he's going to save Peach no matter what it takes. The idea that he "couldn't" have done it without her is borderline antithetical to the little character this guy has-you'd be far better served trying to argue that her backstory justified her complete willingness to help him when he's little more than a stranger to her at the start even divorced from the dire situation.
>The comet observatory is the culmination of all of her backstory and themes.
And it ends up amounting to a place you barely have to interact with at all. It's ground down to it's bare essentials a video-gamey hub world because they didn't feel like maybe locking more of the main plot behind actually exploring it and interacting with the Lumas in an meaningful capacity. You really don't seem to get that my complaints with what the game present are the fact that it makes no effort to actually make the player think about what they represent for the vast majority of it's runtime.

No, the actual problem here is that you're a moronic, strawmanning fucking retard with sense of what you're talking about. You're a retarded Nintendo fanboy that's desperate to downplay any criticisms of the movie that you're looking to try and tear down the thing it's based on to make it look better. You continously have acted as though fans of Galaxy are acting as if the game is one of the most amazing stories in video games ever, when nobody has said this in the entire thread. You're all bark and stuffed with dogshit. Your brain is little more than a cumsock for Nintendo, and every time you take another load in through your mouth it splashes upwards into your brain cavity.

>>736405897
How does their self-sacrifice make the black hole moment more powerful when it's what they're inclined to do anyways, though? I'm thinking we're just fundamentally disagreeing with their portrayal because I don't find a whole species being defined by a few traits that they completely, uncritically ascribe to from the beginning of the game to the end particularly interesting. I think it also would've been interesting if the game had gone out of it's way to analyze the existence of a species who's main purpose seems to be propagation of life that is NOT it's own, but it doesn't really do that either.
I'm using a lot of words here but it really wouldn't have taken much from the game itself to sway my opinion honestly, I just think the Lumas being more of a set of characters that you engage with while progressing the main plot rather than a large homogenous "character" that by and large serve as a gameplay mechanic would've helped the theme even if the game was still dialogue-light.

>>736406446
The Lumas' self-sacrifice hits harder precisely because it's what they're inclined to do, not despite it.

>>736406439
>You refused to call a bad movie bad
First it was dogshit, now it's just bad? Make up your mind pal.

>Just because that's what Mario's character is about doesn't mean he automatically has all the skills and experience necessary to do anything he wants.
Mario's character is literally defined by flexibility, if he doesn't have the requisite skills for something he'll improvise from his existing ones or learn how to do it. Even from the way the story is framed with her IN IT, Rosalina was not a necessity for the plot to occur.
>Her storybook backstory justifies all of this.
Okay?
>Every return to the hub shows the Observatory visibly recovering and evolving as you restore its Power Stars
This is a visual touch that, while nice, really only serves as a marker of the player's progress rather than a showcase of it's meaning to either Rosalina or the greater themes presented by the narrative. You literally just said a thing that it does

Yeah, which is why he does so after getting the abilities from Rosalina. Otherwise, the plot never would have happened.
>Okay?
You're wrong.
>This is a visual touch that, while nice, really only serves as a marker of the player's progress rather than a showcase of it's meaning to either Rosalina or the greater themes presented by the narrative. You literally just said a thing that it does.
It's showcasing its meaning while also showing progress. You're arguing nothing here.

>>736384218
Super Mario Galaxy is a watered down game for faggots and didn't deserve to have its own movie to begin with. Galaxy is packed with gimmick stages that ask you to do the most asinine shit with the Wii remote, and you only ever do each one once or twice. The power ups are fucking dogshit, either making the game slower than it already is like the Boo, Bee, or Spring Mushrooms, or are used basically like a lock and key and are on a set timer specifically to gate the next area like the lame timed Fire and Ice flowers. Galaxy has ONE good power up and you use it for only the one terrible mission where you fly in a circle collecting filler coins and then it's restricted to the starless hub area for the rest of the game. It's a 3D Mario game built like a 2D Mario game but not even in a good way like 3D Land/World, and it also was right at the start of the Mario mandate sterilization the series suffered for years. Galaxy is the fucking Anti-3D Mario and I have always hated it. Nothing brings me more joy than seeing all these Wii zoomers who think Super Mario Waggleshit is "peak" because of the orchestral soundtrack and doesn't make them think get so excited over the Galaxy movie on reveal, only to have it be a completely unfocused mishmash of a bunch of different mario games with Galaxy's actual plot largely gutted and ignored just as Father Miyamoto intended. Every Galaxyfag got exactly what they deserved in Mario & Fox McCloud's Wacky Reference Reel. I'm sure the movie is fine enough and as unfocused as the first one
Enough to make the kids happy. But the fact it's bringing disappointment to Galaxyfags is the icing on the cake. I'm gonna see it soon and revel in how not-Galaxy it is.

>I got a kick out of seeing Star Fox in the movie, his inclusion felt random and unnecessary and like they only did it for reddit karma.
C'mon anon, think for a moment.
Animating 5 seconds of this cost like $10,000.
Where have you seen this before? I mean Cameos, post-credits, haphazard writing to keep things moving without any substance?
They are clearly telegraphing that they want to do an Avengers type movie with Smash Bros reason the movie is so hasty because MCUslop at its peak was a series of mediocre rushed movies teasing the next movie.

So here is the good news.
You might live to see Star Fox and even Earthbound be adapted into movie form.
I mean weird they chose SF before Metroid and Zelda but let's say Mother counts too, definitively Kirby.
But as the monkey paw curls, the movies will be done in the same style.
So how bad do you think Illumination will handle things?
If they do get to Earthbound I expect them to drop the Charlie Brown style due to copyright reasons, and do the most generic kids movie imaginable. Maybe Ness gets bullied by Porky and Paula saves steps to defend him and shit like that.
They certainly are going to race swap Poo and change his name.
So let your nightmares run wild with this speculation.
Hell, are these movies really better than the mock up pitch /v/ did prior to the original movie, with Keisha's Tik Tok?

>>736407305
I literally didn't even read the thread before posting my 2 cents. I've hated Galaxy since long before the movie because it is a dog shit game. I couldn't give a fuck less about the movie or what people think about it because of its direct tie to a game I detest. It was never going to please me and I don't expect it to. The only level I appreciate it on is silly cameo moments and the fact that the "people" who wanted a true Galaxy movie didn't get one. That other post only backs up my own thinking about Galaxyfags. You look at this watered down shit and pretentiously call it art because you fart huffing retards think there's some deep meaning to the plot of a fucking Mario game. The game is slow as fucking molasses with dogshit powerups that neuter Mario, and an eyerolling "story" told through the biggest industry plant in the history of the term industry plant. Fuck Galaxy the game AND the movie. Galaxyfags are back of the bell curve, short bus riding, intellectually disabled mongoloids and they deserve a slop movie for their slop game. If anything the movie is accurate to the game because Galaxy the game dumbed down 3D Mario gameplay for the lowest common denominator and this movie seems to target the same demographic. I haven't even watched it LMAO

>>736408390
>We got an almost faithful adaption of Sonic Adventure 2 (OF ALL THINGS) with Jim Carey and Keanu Reaves before a Zelda movie or a decent Halo production.
Wild.

Halo is such a no brainer it is incredible all the effort that went towards fucking that up. The Mario movies are merely ads.
And here is the best part.
Mortal Kombat is still the king of adaptations.
The MK animated movies are great.

>>736408540
>The Mario movies are merely ads.
And very poorly-made ads at that, lol.
Never watched any of the Halo stuff but did hear how horrifically botched it was.
Haven't seen the Mortal Kombat adaptations either, but I'm mildly curious about it.

>>736408691
The first movie is fantastic but you could say it was heavily inspired by Big Trouble in Little China. I think it is even better because the pacing is very snappy.
The sequel was terrible and there is a ton of MK media from the 90s to the present. Comics, live action, web shows, the works.
Noteworthy are all the animated movies. All of them are good with Cage match being the weakest and Snowblind is based on Kano's ladder ending in MK11, it just works.

The last live action movie got 15 minutes of watchable scenes and the rest is Dragon Ball Evolution. The upcoming one is a fuck up but no one expected it to be good.

>>736384218
Movie would be better if they kidnapped Peach instead of Rosalina, so Rosalina could get some character development in her own film.
Instead, they introduced Rosalina just to be a jobber and do nothing the whole film, just to re-establish Peach as a girlboss AGAIN, as if that wasn't hammered into your head for over an hour in the original film.
It's baffling that they went so hard on feminist propaganda, only to take an almighty goddess who was never kindnapped in the games and turn her into a damsel in distress.

I've seen the very first Mortal Kombat movie. It was years ago but the only thing I remember from it is how Reptile looked. I've got a soft spot for the early 3D animation like this and other shit from my childhood like Veggietales but it's so goofy and out of place. It's just strange that they felt the need to include this in a movie about a game that scanned real actors and was largely pre-rendered to look as "realistic" as possible.

It's the Star Festival that happens every 100 years. Bowser kidnaps Princess Peach and her castle using a spaceship, and Mario is left stranded in space where he meets Rosalina, who gives him the power of the stars with Luma. Rosalina lives in the Comet Observatory which is currently underpowered and immobile due to Bowser stealing the Grand Stars that power it. Mario must go from galaxy to galaxy, collecting Power Stars so the ship can fly and confront Bowser at his reactor. Mario defeats Bowser and his reactor implodes, creating a black hole, which Rosalina and the Lumas sacrifice themselves to stop as everyone is teleported back to the Mushroom Kingdom. Mario looks up all the new galaxies created by the reborn Lumas and welcomes them.

This is not a story. It's an opening act, a premise, followed by 30 hours of gameplay and bing bing wahooing, and then the final showdown. You can speak to NPCs and also learn Rosalina's backstory as you progress through the game and visit the library. Luigi shows up along with the Toad Brigade, but they exist to obtain stars. The "story" is more like all the experiences (You) personally have while playing the game, because obviously not every galaxy is mandatory, not everything in the game needs to be experienced to finish it.

Is the new Mario movie good? As a standalone movie? No, not really. But Galaxy doesn't really have much more of a story than the original Super Mario Bros. There's a premise/inciting incident, some characters, and that's all the fluff you need because the game is a game and whether or not the Toads are cursed to be blocks is irrelevant to anything. It's just a thing that exists. Do video games work as movies? Depends on the game. Mario is a world of levels to play around in, not a grand history or narrative. What's Peach's origin in the games? Does it matter? Mario and all the others are just "actors" playing the roles laid out for them in each game, it's like Osamu Tezuka and his characters.

Well anon think of it more as someone producing a really well produced FILLER episode or some non-canon OVA where nothing of real consequence happens. The way that the characters start out in the story come out the same towards the end of the story without any real developments to what they are/how the world has changed and shit like that
Like even the first film had that. It was mostly played for laughs but Mario was the typical nobody turned hero. I mean technically on Paper there was a big development with Peach but theres less then a minute dedicated to it and Peach doesnt even really get a minute to react to the development, so it basically feels like nothing of consequence happened
The character that has an actual story and arc is Bowser but again he is the comedic character so its not treated as seriously

>>736402720
This gif is funnier with the new canon in consideration

>>736409447
We got a better version of it that respected the characters enough to properly convey what it is people like about them, particularly Shadow.

I don't care about SA2 Shadow as an adult, the game just isn't written well, nor are his motivations. StH3 manages to capture how people remember feeling and write him as a decent character with THEMES.

>>736409624
Shadow being created by Gerald as the ultimate life form to save Maria and others but is turned into the ultimate weapon because of Gerald's grief and madness and then realizes he's more than just an instrument of destruction is FAR better than what they did in the movie. You want to obsess over themes so badly, this right here encapsulates the theme of Shadow's story.

Just came back from the theater.
I liked it, the reviews made it seem like it was barely a movie and it was just a nonstop cameo / easter egg fest. Definitely not the case. But the story felt from very random. First movie did too but it was more of a problem for this one. The structure is all over the place. You get even less room to breathe. I found the first one funnier too.

But if you ignore that, its great the amount of power ups, characters, and moments are great. Which make it very rewatchable. The weird structure will be easier to forgive on rewatches. I got what I wanted which was more Mario and Luigi together.

Its definitely not a smash introduction movie. But you wouldn’t blame me for thinking it was with revealing Fox. Its still a Mario movie. Think of it of a new Mario sports game that has some guest characters / Nintendo references. I guess they couldn’t resist dipping their toe even if they arent ready for a Smash movie. Or they want Mario movies to just have the ability to reference Nintendo in general, not necessarily building to anything.

Enjoyable movie but yeah I’d keep expectations in check. Its a fun Mario adventure in glorious animation

Well if interviews are anything to go by, this was probably due to Miyamoto and Nintendo meddling.
Like feel free to hate the directors of the film, but if you take the interviews that Miyamoto gave at face value, then the reality is that this film couldnt be an actual adaptation cause Miyamoto of all times had to open his fucking mouth and say "This is Rosalina's(and Peach I gues) backstory now"
Whatever original ideas and concepts Galaxy was touching basically CANT be touched cause Miyamoto wanted something explicitly different. And I dont care how much the directors suck, if Shiggy says Rosalina and Peach are sisters now, thats the end of it and they work with what theyre given

Bowser destroyed the Galaxy, the Lumas didn't sacrifice themselves, after everything got destroyed they simply did what they were born to do, become planets.
That only happened because Mario worlds in games hold no value, characters are simply there to facilitate certain game mechanics, there doesn't need to be any kind of cohesion because even the direct sequels use different iterations of the same worlds.
>death creates life, and life is a beautiful cycle that repeats with unexpected variations.
I never thought I would see someone praising the depth of Super Mario Galaxy out of any game, when 2 changed everything with no regard for the previous established lore.

will the zelda movie be more serious ? i can't imagine Nintendo going full ADHD mode with them
