A place for those who "Trust the Fungus"

I did a little edit at the top, adding this new video review in: Cat Hat Reviews: Super Mario Bros. Comments: Simply awesome review. He makes a lot of good points and comparisons, reviewing both sides of why people like or dislike the movie. And then he puts all of the SMB Movie haters in their plac...

Nope, it's in the DVD too

I recently had dinner with a friend of mine, we were talking about the movie and he said that he'd seen it in theaters twice. Once in the regular theater, the second in a drive-in theater, and both times, they had the now-lost "de-evolution" sequence where Koopa obliterates some guy into ...

There's just a level to it of how that kind of technology should be utilized. Pixar movies are one thing. Video games are another. But why make a movie where everyone is lifelike and NOT use real actors? I just don't see the advantage of trying so hard to replicate what can be so easily obtained by....

Yeah, I've been a bit confused by Zemeckis lately. I haven't seen his Christmas Carol, but I'm sure it's better than the other mo-cap films he's done. I also heard that he's doing another Roger Rabbit using the technology.

DeVito could have done a terrific job; he puts his soul into every character he portrays.

Having said that, I wouldn't trade Bob Hoskins for anyone. Sure, he loathes the movie to this day, but I gotta like the guy all the more for doing it.

I've always meant to see Speed , but still haven't. I saw Shutter Island . It was good; I even liked the ending. I'm a sucker for Scorsese flicks. And Leonardo. Just wait until Christopher Nolan's Inception, guys. I also just finished watching the newest DC Universe animated feature, Justice League:...

He was a script/story consultant, IIRC.

Anything in particular in the magazines you're looking for?

Phlibb needs to write up a definitive review of the movie highlighting all its accomplishments, as well as its downfalls (yet in a fair manner) that we can link to at the ready. In fact, the (soon-to-be) list of references would be enough to shut up anyone. You know, I always kind of thought I shou...

Wow, what an awesome find! However, it's hilariously obvious that that isn't Bob Hoskins.

That jacket is/was being sold by one of Jeff Goodwin's friends; I had the first option of buying it before she put it up for auction. It was a tad on the pricey side though, and I never saw it on eBay myself, not sure whatever happened to it.

Oh, most certainly. It'll help keep track of what we have and what we don't. Hopefully we'll get everything worth getting in terms of magazine articles.

Actually, I think I read somewhere that the directors didn't even want them to have overalls or the jumpsuits at all-thought they looked stupid or didn't fit or something. Luckily, someone called BS on it. The scene where they find the suits is most certainly one of the film's best scenes.

Yep, that's exactly where it's mentioned.

I had the opportunity to see Avatar in IMAX 3D, and it was really great. Like UE5000 said, compared to the Star Wars prequels, it's a much better film in terms of a complete package, story, etc. It's not something I would put in my top 5 films of all time by any means, but it's good for what it is--...

It sure is "Spikeasaurus." Also, I'm pretty sure that Iggy's is "Ignatious" or something like that, a play on "Ignotius."

Yes, NP did have a SMB Movie special. I have the issue, I'll try to find it and get you the actual issue number.

That's why it took so long for me to get mine done because I just didn't want to take the thing apart and scan every page; typing it just seemed easier.

Hey, this is a great idea. If anyone gets a new reference, type/scan it and make sure to get down the issue number, page number, etc. as this would make a great special for the site.

Try finding another SMB movie fansite, period. Oh wait...

There's also a bit in another one of those videos with Koopa screaming something about the rock at Iggy and Spike, I don't believe it's in the final film. I believe that's a complete alternate scene when Iggy and Spike come back through the portal with Daisy. There's some other footage and screensh...

Re: Official SMB 4/17/92 Script Thread Yep, it sure is.

Yep, it sure is.

Wow, this is great. Just a guess, but the Parker/Jennewein may just be the script that we already have. However, I'm extremely interested in the Solomon/Rowe draft. Based on the period of Solomon's involvement and the date on the script, it should somewhat resemble the film we got. However, it may b...

www.create-games.com is a pretty good community site for the Clickteam products. They have tutorials, forums, and user submitted games, etc.

Looks like you're on the right track. When you get the frames in, you'll have to mess around with the hot spots and such probably to get a fluid animation.

Change that sprite sheet up there to a .PNG file (or BMP) and I should be able to help you. Also, when you're making sprites, if you're using black, use a color that's a tad off from the standard black that's in paint or whatever. Why? Because that's the default color for transparency/invisibility i...

Ah. Now that I have that information...

LOL. Good call.

There's no way in hell that kind of effort would be put into editing the film like that. I can only hope there's a workprint or deleted scenes laying around somewhere.

I think it was Koopa's throne or something appearing...maybe in a mall or somewhere when the merge started. Makes me wonder if there were more shots of things merging that were cut... That's exactly what I think, too. I think some of those scenes are in the early draft or the novel or something, at...

Yeah, and, you know, the beginning of the film

Wow, what a good observation. If we only had Blu-Ray! I don't think they're the same image, but it's definitely one of Koopa in his military outfit. Perhaps there was a photoshoot and both pictures are from it? Or there's more to the story...

Yep, TGF2 will let you do any SNES-ish game, really. Import sprites, animate them, add effects, controls, etc. Good stuff.

Okay guys. I've gotta say, I've really enjoyed the enthusiasm and life the forum has had for the past little bit. So, even though I'm always too busy for my own good, I thought I'd try to at least get something off the ground. This will be the official thread for discussing and discovering any possi...

Umm...re: bootleg. It's a bootleg. It wasn't sold anywhere. It's a ripped off version.

Actionscript makes me wet the bed at night. If you want to work with something you can do yourself, why not try something like RPG Maker? I haven't done anything with it. However, you might also be interested it a program called The Games Factory 2. It's really great for making some decent 2D applic...

I have something that might help you out. I'll have to dig it out of my personal SMB art stash.

Stop what you're doing RIGHT NOW and go watch them. I mean it. Best movies ever. EVER. Other than SMB, of course
