I agree. I think if a young Luigi needs any facial hair, it would just be a small goatee on his chin... but the clean shaven look worked for him in the movie.

Well, it's a preference of mine. I prefer more sensible sequel titles, rather than "Title: Subtitle," which is something that's going to confuse people three hundred years from now when they're trying to watch the "Resident Evil" movies in chronological order.
