The Super Mario Brothers Super Show was the most outrageously ridiculous thing ever in terms of Mario franchise adaptations, so personally I feel it deserves a good mocking.

Re: I was in Nintendoworld in New York City...

I never thought of The Super Mario Brothers Super Show as one of Nintendo's 'downs,' considering it ran for several years and was followed by two further incarnations, The Adventures of Super Mario Brothers 3 and The Super Mario World. They're all out on DVD in their entirety, except maybe the latter.

Yeah, that's all well and good, but... it's Affleck. I'm pretty sure Kevin Smith has some sort of involvement with Affleck getting the role.

Parker Bennett and Terry Runte's original script actually utilized such a plot twist, which would have been very fun.
