A place for those who "Trust the Fungus"

Trusting the fungus is adjacent to suspending your belief and trusting chance. Life is unpredictable and no one knows where it will take us. We must keep a susceptible mind and accept every challenge while trusting our strengths. Mario learns this principle in the film. Bob utilized this also when ...

I'm glad you're gonna pick this up! You shouldn't be disappointed; your comment about it being a British produced 'American' show is right on target. I still have a few episodes to go before I finish the series, but I think it's a really solid show. Very cult, very underrated. Just like that other t...

This sounds awesome! Can't wait to give this a shot.

You should get Shout! Factory's Max Headroom TV series boxset. While Rocky and Annabel only created the character and directed the original TV movie (they had nothing to do with the US TV series), the set does have some pretty good documentaries about the creation of the character that they both par...

Argh, thanks for bringing that up, Serum. It's fixed now!

The Morrow draft is certainly not a myth. It was one of the first things that Roland Joffe and Jake Eberts had commissioned for the film. I think they spent quite a bit of money to get Morrow on board. They were hoping that his credibility from Rain Man would attract the kind of talent they were loo...

I think ERTL was just trying to cram as many references to the look and feel of the film into those more deluxe playsets as possible. The Devo Chamber primarily functions as it does in the film, letting you de-evolve people and stuff. Although, if I was a kid, I would also let it double for Devo 4, ...

Our take is that the ridges grew in between the ending of the film and the beginning of the comic while Luigi's appearance is an an actual redesign. The king, however, is based off of Lance Henriksen; only his clothing is different. Yoshi will keep the same appearance throughout the rest of the stor...

Redstar can probably answer this better than I can, but it's still in the works--kinda. We're just trying to figure out the best way to utilize the resources we've gathered thus far and what we want to do with it.

I really appreciate you picking up the ball with this. I LOVED the "Super Mario Adventures" comics in Nintendo Power--the humor and "marioness" of that series is one of the best Mario things ever, IMO. It's cool to see a spiritual successor.

Awesome! I can't wait to see this. I love seeing these things fleshed out in creative ways.

I hope everyone is having a great holiday season! I got an XBox One, a bunch of Blu-Rays, some 3DS games, and a ton of Batman stuff.

I have a WiiU and I've been enjoying it so far. I'm not surprised that it hasn't been selling too well--for whatever reason, Nintendo just doesn't have a clue how to market this thing. Still, they were finally able to make the 3DS rise from the ashes, so I'm pretty confident they'll be able to do th...

It's sad to hear that Mr. Wells has passed. I've always been a huge fan of the Super Mario Bros. Super Show--both the live action and cartoon parts. He was able to be an entertaining live-action Luigi, as well as establish a completely different but even more iconic portrayal in the cartoon segments...

You've clearly made some improvement in your art. More detail and better proportioned bodies. The updated colors are also very nice.

This is looking like an excellent experience for fans.

Hooray! Thanks, Serum!

Relevant: Nintendo is releasing the Wii Mini at $99.99, which is boxed with Mario Kart Wii. Excellent package for any Nintendo fan looking to grab a replacement or gift for a friend.

I just picked the first two issues of this today, and I've gotta say--I'm impressed! It's such an intriguing look at how the Star Wars universe evolved from Lucas' first draft to what it is today. Overall, the story seems darker in tone than the original films, but that's not a detractor. Comic book...

This is looking like it could turn into a really good project. The fact that you're working with a talented group of voice actors should solidify its popularity. Keep up the good work and keep us posted.

Awesome. The Swedish release is just perfect for a project like this. Once you're done we'll definitely update the site and Facebook page again!

I'm pretty excited about this! I wasn't expecting Rowling to return to the Wizarding world for anything major like a new book for a while. It's really intriguing that she herself is writing the screenplay for this new film--I can imagine that is one reason why she's down for this idea, because writi...

Oh MAN. A Super Mario Kart cartoon in the same vein as Wacky Races? That's so brilliant I think it would've worked!

I REALLY like the SMB3-inspired sprites. The Mario without the hat has this great Hoskins vibe to it! They look very "gamey" but also true to the film. Good job!

Pretty neat boxart! I like the cartoony style--it makes me think of the SNES Yoshi's Island.

Man, whenever you do post something, it's always something cool. Thanks

If the film had become popular enough to develop a series of comic books, which properties would you have wanted to see it crossover with? Ghostbusters? TMNT? Evil Dead?

Be creative and let us know in the comments!

I ended up getting one of the special "?" egg gamerpics when they were available for a limited time. Replaying it now, I'm so delighted to see how well they actually hold up. The graphics, gameplay, music--everything is rock-solid. Some things in Banjo-Tooie still amaze me--like Chuffy. A ...

I thought it might be fun to make a general topic about the Banjo-Kazooie series of games. In my opinion, the two main games in the franchise are among the best video games ever made. Here's the list: -Banjo-Kazooie (N64) -Banjo-Tooie (N64) -Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge (GBA) -Banjo-Pilot (GBA) -...

I actually have a full set of the orchestral score pieces from the film. I *think* they have every part on them though, so it might be hard to translate to piano. And it'd take a while to find them and scan them as well. Still, I've always wanted to transpose some of the pieces into a MIDI program o...

Eeeeee that sucks... hope she feels better

...although he couldn't read the words.

Trevor, the puppy with an attitude.

I wouldn't be surprised if there isn't a whole lot of new things to do. They are doing things like overhauling the Tingle Tuner, etc. The streamlined Triforce quest is interesting...it was apparently MUCH harder in the Japanese version and they made it easier for the US release...I wonder what they'...

So glad to finally see the SMB Homage Scene! I loved it! The guys you picked for Mario and Luigi were terrific, and I really appreciated Mojo Nixon coming back as Toad in a clever way. Can't wait to see the whole film!

I also really like the SMB2 comparisons to Super Mario 3D World.

Some keen observers have already noticed what could be the return of the Subcon people in one of the game's trailers. With all the SMB2 comparisons...what if we finally got to see Wart again?

What I'm confused about is that it's called "3D World." Makes sense for the 3D in the 3DS but not so much the WiiU. Same problem with all of the titles with the "New" in them.

It's the last star you can get in the game. I think it's called "The Perfect Run." Basically, it's the hardest level in the game--and you can't be hit even once.

That price is ridiculous. Just as ridiculous as the $1300 police car that's currently up for auction!

However, that shirt is in amazing condition. I have one of those myself...maybe I'll put it on eBay but at a slightly lower price...to prove my point.

Also, welcome back, Zack! Post more!!

FYI, just in case anyone was wondering...

I FINALLY beat Super Mario Galaxy 2. That last star was an absolute nightmare.

The forums were temporarily down while updated the database. We apologize for any inconvenience. Now, happy posting!

I would like to give this another go sometime. I've got a couple of other projects on the go also and working fulltime makes it hard to find time to work on these but hopefully I'll have a better pair soon. :D Like I said before, you could really sell these. We run into people mentioning wanting a ...
