Re: The Bugman (Fanfic)

Oh dude. I immediately like the correlation to the alligators in the sewers. What a missed opportunity for the film!

Re: Nooblet From Noobington

Hello! When you worked at the video store did you ever put the film on the store's TV for people to watch? :mrgreen: More than once! :D Which was especially fun, 'cause it was a specialty video store and catered to the film elitists out here. Really fun to see people's reaction to my genuine enjoym...

Re: Missing items/Enemies that should have been in the film

I don't personally feel anything's missing from the movie, but it would've been easy to have Mario wield a sledge hammer or a mallet as a weapon at some point.

Re: Would the SMB games work with a serious tone?

I just think that the the franchise needs a overhaul like this, all the zelda games have been well done lately and the Mario games are turning into shit these days Wait. Hold on. Come again? Shit is the word we're using here? Mario Galaxy is what we're talking about, right? Shit? I was just about t...

Re: Another Castle - A Comic

There's no real difference between the portrayal of Bob-Ombs in the film compared to the games. As evidenced by the script, the film's Bob-Ombs are sentient, so it's really just the size. It should also be somewhat easy to integrate the de-evolution concept into your re-imagining with a more game-o...

Re: Another Castle - A Comic

Any influences from the film for this? One of the earlier drafts of the script has Mario owing money to the mob (Scapelli) and it's pretty funny. I actually just learned of that today! I was actually going to name the loan-shark in the story Scapelli in honor of the similarity to the film without e...

Re: Another Castle - A Comic

Brilliant comic, McGriffin. You see these "realistic" or "gritty" takes on the Super Mario Bros. mythos often, but this was the first time I felt it was respectful to what the source material was really about. The idea of there being another world, one with different "rules...

Nooblet From Noobington

Hey dudez. M'name's MC Griffin, I'm an artist, and huge Mario fan. I love the games, but am minorly obsessed with the film, sharing it universally with friends and fellow film lovers as a non-ironic showcase of the visual, graphic potential of film. I used to work at a video store and would frequent...

Another Castle - A Comic

This is my first post of what I'm sure will be many more. Thought you guys might dig this little comic I made a few months back. Kind of my own vision of what a live-action Mario thing could be. Enjoy. http://i52.tinypic.com/zoc1o7.jpg http://i51.tinypic.com/11lqtee.jpg http://i53.tinypic.com/25g9u0...
