A place for those who "Trust the Fungus"

Yo, manWithoutAConstantScreenname! Happy birthday!

I always assumed that the Koopa Square street was either in between the towers, or right next to them. Remember, Koopa's apartment overlooks the street. Still, they called it his "apartment" so that means it may not be in the towers themselves, although many other doors/places connect into...

Yes. In Parker's ADR revision notes (or rewrites, I can't remember which) is a scene with Koopa and his "campaign advisor" taking place right before his introduction in the finished film.

^Ugh. Look at what movies/section Target decided to put the movie in. That's the absolutely worst place it should go. It should really be in comedy/adventure next to Ghostbusters.

^Exactly my point. Hopefully, if even a fraction of the 1000 or so unique visitors we get a day votes, it could make a significant dent. And the more I look at this list, the more I realize just how poorly it's laid out. Based on sheer general popularity/critical acclaim alone, I don't see why almos...

I think there's enough time to change the vote somewhat--even if it doesn't win. I'm updating the front page with this later today.

I'm thrilled to see you've made progress on this project. And using Nintendo stuff to control it--I wouldn't have it any other way! I can't wait to see what you come up with for the finished product; I'm sure it'll be amazing.

Ugh, those IDIOTS. Why did they have to pair Super Mario Bros. with one of the most highly praised game film adaptations IN THE FIRST ROUND!?

Anyways, yeah--everyone please vote.

I think the fact that Captain America--another period film directed by Johnston--is exactly the reason we're seeing The Rocketeer on Blu-Ray in December. How much do you want to bet that the blu-ray release dates for these two are extremely close?

^Not sure about the others, but the heavy-set technician is most certainly Jeff Pillars.

It's totally real. I remember seeing this thing featured or mentioned in a few Nintendo Power products. If I remember correctly, I want to say that the "Mario Mania" guide lists it as "one of the rarest pieces of Mario merchandise." I'll have to look and make sure when I get home...

Wow, I can't believe I never picked up on that before. Stuff like the "Mr. Video" store and this sly coincidence adds that much more fun trivia to an already nuanced experience

^Yes. But don't get your hopes up.

If you pick up the latest Game Informer magazine, you might have noticed an interesting article about your favorite film located in the very back.

The funny thing is--what if there's a take of Dennis Hopper saying, "Bloober, de-evolve him now..."

Some slight housekeeping and other cool things are in store for today: * If you pick up the latest Game Informer magazine, you might have noticed an interesting article about your favorite film located in the very back.

Wow, it's interesting to hear some sort of response from Martinet in regards to the film, but it's a shame that he didn't elaborate much. Maybe with some prodding he could've responded further.

Wonderful! Look for it with this weekend's batch of updates.

^No, this isn't the shooting script. I don't think there actually *is* a shooting script--more on that in a sec. After Clement and la Frenais were done with their draft, the studio thought the film was too adult and brought in Ed Solomon and Ryan Rowe to do a draft in about two weeks' time. It's ver...

^There are a few cups from 7-Eleven. I have two (I think), but there may be more. Even less known is that they also had two (I think) Super Mario Bros-flavored slurpees. Plumber's Passion and Reptile Rasperry (I think, again.) And I have the plastic signs that were placed on the slurpee containers. ...

Lana, thanks for re-posting your article here! Steven was the one who got in touch with you to post this, so it came as a big surprise for me. I'm a big fan of the magazine--I was at GDC this year and tried to track you guys down for a chat about our site but I was utterly unsuccessful. Anyways, I'm...

I think for a few scenes they shot live-action "plates" of NY landmarks like the bridge and then put them in the backgrounds of scenes like the dig site.

Most of the exterior "Brooklyn" scenes were shot in downtown Wilmington--even the scene where the dig site is when you see the towers/bridge in the background. If I remember correctly, David Snyder was sent with a small unit to NY late during filming and they shot a lot of elements that we...

Like I said before, the issue here isn't about Blu-Rays, or DVDs, or any of that stuff. It's about getting the Super Mario Bros. movie an anamorphic release in any format. Having said that, Blu-Ray is without a doubt the format it needs to be on. The film is so intricate in its set design, etc. that...

^Take a look at your DVD version of SMB then. It's non-anamorphic which means the picture quality isn't as good as it could and should be. Even if you don't have Blu-Ray yet, you should still give Disney a shout. When Disney releases Blu-Rays, they usually include a DVD version of the same movie--an...

UPDATE 7/19/11--The interview with Michael Criscuolo is up! Click HERE to read it! The identities of the actors behind the film's dino-humans were long been considered lost information due to their uncredited roles. Even after uncovering Mark Jeffrey Miller as the "Lizard Man," it seemed ...

This week, we've got another one of those exclusive interview things we like to do from time to time: * So without further delay, we have an interview up with Michael Criscuolo --who was both a "featured extra" and John Leguizamo's stand-in. * And under Fan Contributions: Fan Art , we have...

IMO, it's cooler that the film builds up to M/L getting their costumes. It's an origin story. For example--in Batman Begins, he doesn't getï»¿ into his costume until about an hour into the film. About the uniforms--the colors match the original color scheme of the time. There was no "Peach"...

It's great to hear an update on this project. It's a pretty strong story but I can't wait to see it in some sort of proper script format!

Get out your reading glasses, folks--because this update is a doozy: * The Pre-Production: Scripts sub-section has been extensively updated. Not only do the two scripts previously available have updated information and overviews, but we also have TWO new scripts available for your viewing pleasure: ...
