mario is a veteran of many wars, a combat medic with a cool demeanor.

sometimes that cool turns ice cold, calculating even, with the beady eyes of a snake flitting and unreadable. an enigma to be respected but also feared, especially when his brother luigi “the butcher of gadd springs” mario is by his side.

I think it's because Chris Pratt sucks real bad. I can think of probably a hundred characters more imbecilic than Mario, like every other character around Mario.

they should’ve just used ryan reynolds as the voice for pikachu, sonic, and mario. same exact voice. and link for the inevitable zelda movie, and so on, continuing the trend for centuries with a deepfake when reynolds is gone.

If the penguin forces are so outclassed by the turtles, then why is this conflict only happening now? Unless this imbalance is a very recent development, they should have been conquered long ago. I hope the full film addresses the politics of these various world powers.

Mario is able to find this world of pipes and mushrooms that was not accessible to him before. Bowser probably arrived into these realms in a similar way.

I think at the end of the day, what I'm getting to, is that this is a secret Hellraiser movie and Luigi is going to become Pinhead.

Most people seem to love Charles Martinet, or his voice acting anyway. I see people mostly opposed by the decision to use Chris Pratt instead. It makes sense in a capitalistic point of view to use known actors, but I'm thinking in Mario's case, this works against their supposed benefit.

Anyway, my anger has grown more and more for the last few days, and I've been contemplating suing Nintendo for BILLIONS for emotionally traumatizing me..

Since his appearance in Mario Tennis, Waluigi has received mixed reception. Gamervision editor Jonathan Cooper wrote an article entitled the "top ten reasons why Waluigi is awesome", listing such qualities as his developed personality, his role in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and his role in Mario sports games.[11] In the book "Icons of Horror and the Supernatural: An Encyclopedia of Our Worst Nightmares, Volume 1", author S. T. Joshi cites both Waluigi and Wario as examples of alter egos, also as evidence of how popular it is to feature such character archetypes.[12] IGN editor Matt Casamassina described him as a recognizable mascot to many, but also as a beloved one to Nintendo fans.[13] Hiroyuki Takahashi, a developer for Mario Power Tennis listed him, along with his companion Wario, as his favourite character in Power Tennis, describing them both as detestable heels, adding that he likes characters with more personality.[14] gamingillustrated.com's writer Greg Johnson, during his article about the upcoming Mario Kart 8, described Waluigi's return as one of the game's bright-sides. The article called "Waluigi: Unwrapping The Enigma" in Gameranx.com dwells in Waluigi's self-pity and ambiguous origins, describing him as one of the most misunderstood characters in videogames, and more than capable of holding his own game.[15] In addition, Steve Haske, from Unwinnable.com wrote an article called " Waa! In Defense Of Waluigi" that discussed Waluigi's partly negative reception, claiming Waluigi to be an even more interesting character than Wario, praising Waluigi for the comic relief he provides and mentioning his absence in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as an sad disrespect to his fans.[16] Evilgeeks.com, a website dedicated towards villains, claimed Waluigi to be Nintendo's most evil character, because of his hatred, greed and power, and wrote that Waluigi should have his own game simply so that we could see what he is capable of.[17] In addition to those articles, venturebeat.com's writer Chris Hoadley wrote an article called "The Greatness Of Waluigi", describing him as the most cynical Mario franchise character, and the greatest one of the last decade. Chris wrote about how, despite Waluigi being constantly ridiculed for his lack of importance, has one of the strongest and most developed personalities of the cast.[18]

“ He [Waluigi] is seen as less than legitimate by Nintendo internally. His first appearances were in the sports games made by Camelot, who thrust the half-baked villain on the world. [...] He has yet to appear in a core Mario game, and also never appears in his brother Wario's titles, perhaps because Nintendo thinks he’s not good enough for them. Here's hoping this silly creation will continue to be relegated to the side projects where he belongs.[19] ”

—GamesRadar

Waluigi also receives negative reception. GameDaily listed him as one of the characters they wanted to kill, but couldn't, describing him, "One of the most unimportant characters in video game history".[20] Kotaku editor Mike Fahey commented that Waluigi was his personal most annoying video game character.[21] GamesRadar described Waluigi as a "lame-o villain" in an otherwise great game, referencing Mario Tennis.[22] Editor Henry Gilbert titled his section "Waluigi: The worst character ever", suggesting that the creation process involved the developers of Mario Tennis having no one to fill the final character slot, and conceiving him as an "evil Luigi". He describes such an act as "plunging to the bottom of the intellectual barrel". He also calls Waluigi "disgustingly tall and thin" as opposed to Wario, who he calls a "fatass". He later states that the staff of GamesRadar feels that Waluigi is seen as "less than legitimate" by Nintendo, who he feels may not find him good enough to appear in a main Mario or Wario title.[19] IGN editor Lucas M. Thomas discussed him as a possible, yet unlikely, candidate for a "second banana" character to be playable in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, commenting that Waluigi, amongst other sidekick characters, are not well-liked.[23] IGN staff, while praising Bowser as one of the most memorable video game villains, criticized both Waluigi and Wario as being "evil twin knockoffs".[24] In 2013, Complex included him among the ten video game characters who look like sex offenders.[25]

Okay this is why we can't take Wikipedia for granted. Waluigi is loving awesome, and everyone knows it. I hope Nintendo doesn't take this information seriously. I'm surprised there hasn't been at least one spinoff for Waluigi.

Wry and wise,
but also very sexual.

The movie better have a twenty minute monologue from a scientist to explain why blocks are frozen in the air and can contain coins that you can get if you smash your head into them which somehow doesn’t kill you. And why short people are inferior to tall people, I think that’s an important lesson to get out there.

The most shocking thing about the 90s movie was that Nintendo didn't OK a digitzed version of the game using the movie assets, ala the Street Fighter movie video game.

Honestly, the mandela effect for me is swearing I saw screenshots for it in a gaming magazine back then.

But in the 90s it was something of a thud and the thing that got the BEST reception in the movie was Yoshi.

I'm also thinking Bob Hoskins got cast as Mario because someone saw him in like 5 minutes of Brazil.
