Mog Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 More plumber propaganda picking on a loving single dad raising 8(?) kids and successfully leading a loyal, dedicated, and DIVERSE group of troops and soldiers. Mario’s clearly the evil one here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seto Kaiba Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 (edited) Wow, so Chris Pratt's Mario voice is just... regular-ass Chris Pratt voice. Having seen Super Mario Bros. in theaters as a kid my hopes were not high to begin with, but it's weirdly disappointing to hear Mario not sounding like the outrageous (but not entirely unrealistic) Italian stereotype Charles Martinet has been voicing since 1992. EDIT: In a way, it's even weirder to hear Mario having actual dialogue instead of just various reaction sounds.

How can we call a guy who murders countless soldiers, hordes and steals coins from the very kingdom he’s suppose to be helping, outright abuses Yoshi’s left and right, walks into other people’s castles and airships uninvited and goes all John Wick on folks, stomps on turtles repeatedly in his narcissistic quest for immortality (extra lives), possesses all sorts of creatures and forces them to do things against their will (and then leaves them in a confused state OR DEAD once he’s used them up), ditches his brother and traps the Princess in a hot air balloon, constantly cock-blocks single-dad Bowser even though uniting the Koopa and Mushroom Kingdoms would be politically advantageous for both, and we call him a hero?

PREACH! 1 hour ago, Seto Kaiba said: Considering how many questionable mushrooms he ingests, it's possible he's just having a REALLY bad trip. That would explain SMB2: the one time Jerkface allowed his bro, Toad, and Peach to share equally in the spotlight. Of course, he winds up constantly pulling up another kingdom’s food supply to utilize as weapons, and uses Birdo’s future children as WMD’s against that poor mother. . . . Even in his dreams, he can’t escape his jerkface nature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The movie is really about a plumber that was offered some pizza at one of his customers homes that had been using the wrong kinda shrooms as a topping. Now he thinks every pipe is a warp gate that leads to early retirement. along the way he’s fighting with dead turtles children had flushed while believing he was responsible for their deaths and their all led by his boss who in his mind is now some messed up cross between a turtle and a dragon and thinks his hot wife needs to be rescued from him and somehow his brother is trying to help him in his adventures. The whole time his brother is really trying to get him clean and it’s really a redemption story dealing with heavy addiction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seto Kaiba Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 If nothing else, I have every confidence Jack Black's performance as Bowser will leave no piece of scenery free of toothmarks... which is 100% on-brand for Bowser. I am just NEVER going to get over the idea of Mario actually having dialog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
