A place for those who "Trust the Fungus"

Listened to both Sequelcasts. Thanks for the shout out on that recent special! I enjoyed how much you talked about the SMB movie on the other episode despite it not having a "true" sequel per se. How about doing an episode on Dungeons & Dragons/ Dungeons & Dragons: Wrath of the Dra...

That would be the excellent Swedish release--you can get it here: http://subdvd.com/

Wow folks--sorry to let June totally pass me by. I have a good excuse though--I recently got myself a cool job in the game industry as an FX Artist, so I've been pretty busy blowing stuff up and making other kinds of tomfoolery. So unfortunately that means this is another one of those "non-upda...

^WOW. I seriously can't believe that I never noticed that necklace either. It's quite an odd choice, to be sure. You'd think it would have some sort of significance--but who knows. Most things in the film actually have some sort of reason for being there. Other things--like the Taz jacket--not so mu...

Ha! Honestly I don't really know. I'll have to test 'em out when I get a chance...

That poster is flat-out awesome. Could you post a bigger version? I want to pick it apart some more!

If anyone really wants a set of these, I have (I think) about 2-3 extra sets. They're unopened as far as I can tell and are in pretty good condition, but I'd have to check on how many I have next time I'm back at my other house. $25 plus S/H.

^True, but Bertha could lift an old lady above her head with no trouble at all. So that's a bad comparison.

The thing is, Luigi caught them and didn't have any trouble holding them--so your initial assumption is probably correct.

FYI, here are two eBay links to people selling the novel: http://cgi.ebay.com/SUPER-MARIO-BROTHERS-TODD-STRASSER-/220801553127?pt=US_Fiction_Books&hash=item3368cc52e7 http://cgi.ebay.com/JUMANJI-1995-SUPER-MARIO-BROS-1993-Film-BOOKS-Movie-/180684735617?pt=AU_Fiction_Books_2&hash=item2a11a644...

^UGH. And guess what? This new Hoskins "interview" made it to the front page of IGN Movies. Here's their "article" on the matter, which is very similar to Kotaku's: http://movies.ign.com/articles/117/1177726p1.html The funny thing is, so far the article has 192 comments and count...

Always glad to have a new member! And yeah--definitely make a thread for your artwork!

Well, SMB Archive peoples-- I finally hit the big time. After acquiring my B.S. in Digital Media and making it halfway through the masters' program, I landed a position at Vicious Cycle Software in Morrisville, NC. I'm gonna be a VFX Artist (among other things) so I get to blow stuff up and make coo...

UPDATE 5/30/11--The interview with Peter Levy is up! Click HERE to read it! You won't notice Peter Levy's name listed in the credits for Super Mario Bros. as the director of photography--you'll see Dean Semler. The reason for this is that Levy left the project a few weeks after filming. For the fir...

Happy Memorial Day! And if it's Memorial Day--that means something else: it's also the anniversary of the theatrical release of Super Mario Bros. In fact, it's the 18th anniversary. * For this week's update, we have something really great--a new exclusive interview with Peter Levy , the film's origi...

Happy birthday, moviemaker!

Insane? Yes. Yes he is.

You're right, LDB. The thing is that the Mario cartoons (all of them) are essentially now retro cartoons that a handful of people from the "Mario Mania" age remember fondly. Yes, the cartoons are surprisingly still around and you see cheap $5 DVDs of them everywhere, but I still imagine th...

Our in-depth behind the scenes coverage continues! * This week we're taking a break from showcasing our BTS materials from MEL . Instead, we have a quite respectable gallery of on-set photos from makeup artist Amy Taylor (daughter of production designer David L. Snyder). This interesting change of p...

The costumes are great! And you guys definitely fit the roles of movie Mario and Luigi quite well. Keep posting the pics here--we want to see them!

I'm also curious to read the kinds of reactions you guys are getting.

We have some great stuff this weekend: * Our MEL coverage continues with the launch of the Allosaurus Rat section for Pre-Production: Creatures . There's over 30 photos spanning the development of these interesting creatures. * If you're a fan of the allosaurus rats or are new to the site, don't for...

The arrival of a new month comes with the arrival of a new update: * Coming off last week's update with the Pre-Production: Creatures section, I've posted OVER 100 exclusive "on set" photos that you can find in the Media: Behind the Scenes section. Again, these come straight from the folks...

I'm a HUGE Tim Burton fan. Batman, Batman Returns, Beetlejuice, Ed Wood...amazing, amazing films. But when you're talking about doing a SMB reboot, I immediately think of the majority of the criticisms placed upon the original film--style and no substance. While visuals are very important, the story...

This one's with Craig Edwards , one of the film's production assistants. The format is a bit different than other interviews we've posted, and it's full of great tidbits about the film. Don't miss it. I first noticed Craig from a comment of his on Jeff Pillars' ("Wart" from the film) Faceb...

Happy (late) Easter, everyone! Here's what I've got for your basket this year: * The Pre-Production: Creatures section has launched! With a huge help from the guys at MEL (Makeup & Effects Laboratory) , we now have sections up for the Goombas and Hark/Toad . Don't miss these galleries--there's s...

^Yeah, I can imagine that quote being on the back of the Blu-Ray--many films tend to do that. I just like this cover art because it's simple and it gets the point across. People that are looking for it are gonna see SMB movie artwork in a Blu-Ray package, and that'll be enough. And it should be enou...

Hey, MuppetManAZ!

So glad you decided to post after so long--and what a great introduction!

I can't wait to see how this project turns out. Be sure to keep us posted--this may be the first actual full SMB Movie Goomba re-creation, so it'll be pretty special.

Welcome to the forums!

Make some Thwomp Stompers!

Make more posts!

UPDATE: 4/20/11 Because of the overwhelming amount of spambots and such on the forums lately, I've had to reinstate the above policy. I'm looking into some options to improve the registration policies, but for the time being: PLEASE SEND ME A PERSONAL EMAIL LETTING ME KNOW YOU'RE TRYING TO REGISTER ...

Have you picked one of those recent NP Mario guides? Wondering if they mention the film at all...

UPDATE 4/10/11--The interview with Allan Apone & Paul Elliot is now live! Click HERE to read it! The creatures designed by Patrick Tatopolous for Super Mario Bros. are nothing short of amazing. Likewise, the incredibly talented people tasked with building them are as well. MEL (Makeup & Eff...

Well, it looks like our recent interview with Richard Edson (Spike) made a huge splash across the internet on sites like Kotaku , The Escapist , Go Nintendo , and others. So it's entirely possible that this may be your first time visting the archive. If that's the case, welcome! Join the forums! If ...

^That'd be great! Anything to help would be amazing. I'm hoping that we'll get some cool results if we can get enough people to do something.

Welcome to the boards!

It's great to have you. Feel free to post on any thread that you think you can add conversation to. It'd also be great to see that artwork when you get a chance!

I'm really fond of this trailer/remake. Like I said on the YouTube page, It's not that you made it "thrilling,"ï»¿ per se, but you just shifted the focus of the trailer/story from Mario and Luigi to Daisy--and with marvelous results. Good job. I'd love to see another one, if you could figu...

Oh it is. Anyone just now viewing this thread knows that this is a sly reference to something you'll read in our interview with Richard Edson. Now, perhaps the chicken dish Richard had really wasn't good. But being a country bumpkin myself--I've made the above and it's pretty good IMO. Then again, I...

UPDATE 4/3/11--Richard's interview is now live! Click HERE to read it!

Darn, I missed April Fools' Day. Instead of bringing you a bunch of fake updates, how's about a bunch of real ones? * Our interview with Richard Edson (Spike) is now up! Honestly, it's great. It's our first dual-interview (from the interviewer) side, so it's pretty comprehensive. You won't be disapp...
