The Mario Movie
2 years ago
I saw it last Friday.
I haven't had that much fun watching a movie in many years. But this movie has done more than just be damn good. It has become a cultural touchstone, and has become the standard by which all future entertainment in the animated movie industry will be measured. It has crushed Disney into the ground. Toppled the monolithic mouse. And it did so with one simple word: Verisimilitude. Nintendo, was unwilling to bend to the industry standards, and instead used their trademark iron grip to keep the Mario Brand pure, and free of sociopolitical corruption. It pandered not to the critical establishment, and went straight to the fans. The true judge of quality. Thus, by their judgement the movie was found to be an exemplar of quality among the teeming cesspool of mediocre, politically correct, saccharine, drivel that has plagued the animated movie scene now for nearly two decades.
Nintendo. You did it again.
By the way, Jack Black is Bowser. Forever.

Sure it's an abomination of the actual games, and is absolute cheese. But i rather like bob hoskins and it's a fun way to kill time every once in a while
*shrugs* can be fun times having an eclectic taste in various movies XD
