yes. and a dog he adopted was found emaciated and walking the streets after they moved away from the area and gave the dog away to someone (against the rules of their adoption) who evidently couldn't take care of it properly

I hope she tells Mario she's baked a cake for him and then squashes him with her enormous rear end while a popular song about girl power, thiccness, bad bitches etc plays. I hope she uses Toad as a shield and he gets his loving head blown off with a Bullet Bill. I hope she rejects Marios kiss by telling him his princess is in another castle. I hope we both die.

The epic orchestra Mario theme really pumps me up. The stakes have never been higher. Also digging the epic vocal fry on Peach, gives her a sultry side and I love Royksopp basslines.

I liked the Mario trailer. Peach going to gently caress poo poo up with a halberd was a pleasant surprise, I'm hoping that badass nature keeps through the film and she doesn't get kidnapped 3/4 of the way through. Pratt has said like three lines and two vocalizations throughout the course of these trailers so I don't really have an opinion on him, but the rest of the movie looks cool. I do like the 'gotta train this plumber guy to actually be the hero people know him as', seems like the thing that's going to set Mario apart is his tenacity and willingness to step up when needed, rather than being really drat good at saving the day right out the gate.

My guess based on the trailer is that Luigi is the one that gets captured, not Peach

100%, can't go too wrong at that price and if you like it, the expansion (sunbreak) is even better and has some really incredible fights.

It's the smoothest, most accessible Monster Hunter game in the entire franchise and absolute tons of fun. I'd say if $20 is an amount of money you can afford to gamble on, go for it. If you bounce off, at least you'll know. But if you bounce ON, there is a thousand hours of amazing games ahead of you. Rise is definitely the best entry point, too (IMO, some people make good arguments for World).

I mean he is just such a bad choice and giving gim injokes just makes it worse. 'Letsa go' said in a bland whisper is just so 'what?'

Peach becoming Generic Animated Female Lead 26 bothers me less because that is just her personality + extra sass and also it may mean we get a scene of her wrecking poo poo with a halberd which I'm good with

It looks great. I look forward to the cut where someone replaces all of Pratt's lines with Mario clips.

Looking forward to Dynasty Warriors: Mushroom Kingdom Edition.

So, I don't understand what's going on, but I also don't follow competitive smash, because :lol:

These people didn't get the blessing of Nintendo for their tournament? I don't understand why they can't have a video game tournament that primarily (or exclusively) features Smash and that's that. :shrug: Like ok, so it's not licensed. People can't organize a group to play a Nintendo game?

When money's involved, a lot of money at that? No. Not every multiplayer game needs a competitive scene. Especially a scene as bad as Smash.

Reusing the exact same trailer theme from last time was a bit strange. Last update they said Koji Kondo just started work on the soundtrack so maybe they didn’t have any other track they were happy with yet.

Oh boy I hope Kondo still gives it his A game and writes things that aren't entirely remixes.

He flies under the radar too often but he's got one of the strongest senses of composition in gaming.

I have rise on switch but I will definitely double dip for the PS5 version for those glorious frames

I'm glad Capcom is finally on board with milking their franchises on all the consoles in contrast to their console exclusivity they had going on with monster hunter. Sometimes it was portable, sometimes it was on Sony consoles, oh no wait now it's Nintendo only, wait let's split the difference and make separate ones for different consoles

Getting to choose between portability and graphical fidelity owns

Yeah I mean I consider Mario pretty capable and confident, so it's strange to see him as such a bumbling oaf in the trailer, doing pratfalls :haw: and getting his rear end kicked. I guess over the course of the movie he'll undergo the hero's journey and be triple jumping by the end. The clickbaits will be "I cried when Mario finally butt stomped a goomba"

Looks like they're embracing his plumber origin, I was mildly surprised since Miyamoto said he's an adventurer now instead.

Of course Mario is going to be weak, lacking confidence and in desperate need of guidance at the beginning of the film.

It wouldn't be a proper generic AAA Hollywood film without the hero's journey now would it

I don’t necessarily believe that account but I can believe that Capcom is working on a port to the current gen consoles. January release is a bit odd. What was the last thing Capcom released? RE8 DLC? I figured they’d want something for the holiday window.
