It's been a while, but I've got lots of updates to make up for it, okay?

• The Specials section now has a main page and description.
• The 3/25/92 Early Draft Script is DONE and online. Link. Forum page.
• Detailed descriptions of the two scripts we have on the Early Draft Scripts page is up, as well as my personal mini-review for the 3/25/92 script.
• The Interviews section also has its own page, housing completed versions of my interviews with Mark McCoy and Jeff Goodwin.
• The Storyboards page has been updated with one new page for a new piece provided by Mark McCoy.
• More good stuff from our forum members. Zack has made a custom SMB shirt, and UE5000 made some cool artwork.
• Oh yeah, and UE5000 also made an amazing animated "deleted scene" from the movie. Really impressive. I'll have to put that in the Fan Art section when I get a chance.

Stay tuned. More to come.

Less than a month between updates--I think that's pretty good, right? Okay, I know it's not, but still...

• Part III of the 3/25/92 Early Draft Script is now online. Check it out!
• The forums are still going strong; check out the new SMB Merchandise thread and some new fan-fiction here and here.
• And finally (I always save the best for last), my interview with SMB Key Makeup Artist Jeff Goodwin is now up on the forums. He was super nice and he did a wonderful interview. It's a really good read and there are some VERY interesting things in it that I'm sure everyone will like.

Until next time...

Shew.

We have had a LOT, and I mean a LOT of developments over the past month or so. Here's the rundown:

• Marioblaster from the forums has completed some very convincing Bob-Ombs;
• Part II of the 3/25/92 Early Draft Script;
• Thanks to our new forum moderator, Corey, who tracked this down, you can now have in your hands (or on your monitor) the fantasy-based, even earlier script of the movie, dated 7/17/91. Written by Tom S. Parker and Jim Jennewein, the same dudes who wrote the screenplays for the live-action Flintstones and Richie Rich films. This version is completely different in content and in tone. Even though I personally prefer the film we got, this version is certainly an interesting read and is a lot more like the actual games.
• And finally, I'm proud to say that the SMB Archive will soon have another EXCLUSIVE interview--this time with Jeff Goodwin, the film's key makeup artist. The interview is forthcoming and (for now), there is still time to post a question you'd like to be asked, so head on over to the forums for more info.

What else does the future hold? Time can only tell. Hopefully, some more content on the pages woule be nice, right? : P

Wow, I hate how time flies by. Sounds familiar, huh? Well, as ridiculously bare as the main page as been as of late (a fact that I'm very, very sorry about), the forums have been booming with a wealth of exciting SMB Movie art, news, interviews, and tidbits. Here are some of the best stuff that I'll divert your attention to:

• Some amazing Fan Art by marioblaster and ultimateemail5000;
• The first few parts of the Early Draft Script;
• and a SMB Archive EXCLUSIVE interview with Mark McCoy--a self-deemed "fungineer" who worked on the movie itself!

Now I'm sure that's enough to chew on for a while. More will come, seriously. You just gotta believe : )

Wow, I hate how time flies by. Believe me though, the site is NOT dead. I just have a full college load and a 32 hour-a-week job to tend to first. However, I have a couple of updates. First of all, I want to thank everyone that's stuck with me here. Very much appreciated. The most hot topic of interest here seems to be my fabled Early Draft Script of the movie, so once things get to where I can actually work on the site, that'll be the first thing I get to. I'm also thinking about doing a complete website redesign, but that'll come a bit later, probably not until the summer (I get out of school in early May).

So, having said all that, I actually DO have something of an actual update here. I've converted and uploaded yet another rare behind-the-scenes video about SMB's Yoshi and the animatronics involved. You can view that here. I also added a little text blurb/information to The Making of Super Mario Bros. in the Behind the Scenes section. More to come.

There's an extra-special treat for you fans today. I've tracked down a ridiculously rare video, The Making of Super Mario Bros. It was in PAL format, so I got it converted and now it's here for you to see in all its glory! Check it out.

The second content page of the website is live--the Storyboards part of the Pre-Production section!

Today, the forums really are working now! Be sure to visit the Forum Info/Rules page first, or you probably won't know the forum info. Or rules. Or how to register.

May 20, 2007

Well, after a mini-hiatus, I've began to make the basic parts of the website, such as the About the SMB Movie and About this website pages. Basically everything in the General section.

March 25, 2007

What's up, all of you Super Mario Bros. Movie fans? It's finally here; a website just for us! I suppose I'll introduce myself. I'm Phlibbit; you may have heard of me/seen me in various Mario websites over the years, but I'm primarily known for my series of videogames, Billy Bob the Cactus Blob. There isn't much on here yet; I'm getting everything worked out and I hope that I can get everything I want on the site during the summer (which isn't too far away for me). I'm just glad to finally make this website a reality because I've wanted to make it for a long time, and hopefully, it will be here for a long time.

Oh, and the forums ARE working! Sign up and start posting now!
