A place for those who "Trust the Fungus"

You should call the video: "The Ruins of Dinohatten" or something along those lines.

Did the owners even know that stuff was in there?!

I knew you were going to rope in Blade Runner, however think of this. Most of the money went to building the city and crazy gadgets and flying cars and what not. Why? Because Blade Runner had a cool Sci-fi city to make. Now think of the original concept of GhostBusters. Not only do they need a cool ...

1upmushroom

For Mad Libs, think of a generic story with blanks in them. Your job is to basically fill the blanks to complete the story.

1upmushroom

It's a terrible idea. "Ghostbusters" died when John Belushi died. The role Bill Murray played was written for John Belushi, one the greatest comedians of all time. I enjoyed Belushi a lot in [/i]Blues Brothers[/i] and thought he completely stole the show in Animal House but I'm sorry. Bil...

Trust me, Peter Weller blows Kevin Conroy out of the water. Eh, Peter Wellers can go either way with me. On the one hand, he at least sounds like Batman, and an aged one at that. On the other hand, Kevin Conroy's voice is so iconic and fits the character so well it's hard not to think of his voice ...

1upmushroom

Yeah, now that's more like it!

Alright, so is there a schedule for The Bugman or will you just post a chapter whenever?

1upmushroom

Yeah, it definitley has more of a...how can I say it, an edge than Mother Rita's Vow . However, I'd change the title. There's nothing wrong with it but "Stanley the Bugman" doesn't really sound like the story I read here. Maybe something like Ol' Stan or maybe A Favor since that's why Stan...

1upmushroom

A nice begining for a story about one of Nintendo's lost videogame characters, you know what I mean. Anyway, having Stanley be a Scapelli instead of a Mario was definitley an interesting twist and I liked this protrayal of him. However, if you do continue the story (which I actually would like to re...

I don't know, maybe I'm just thinking wrong but I prefer the first two acts over the third one. Or maybe it's the fact that we finally found a script that was worthy of being called a Mario movie (though the 1991 draft also deserves a mention) and not only did the Executives decide to not have the w...

1upmushroom

Well you tend to have a lot of different opinions Serum. :P I haven't read it in a long time but I remember feeling that third act just kept throwing many things at you, not taking a break. And then the final fight felt like it should have been longer (then again I haven't read it in a long time) in...

1upmushroom

Eh...I only call it the definitive Mario script mostly because of what we found so far, to be honest, there are many things that need to be improved upon. The third act is a bit rushed, some game references come out of no where, and while there are many ideas in the script, most of them aren't expan...

1upmushroom

If you think that's bad, check out the Terry Runte and Parker Bennet draft which is arguably the strongest and best of the Sci-Fi drafts we've found. The fact that it would've gotten better had the writers not been sacked only makes it much worse.

1upmushroom

Oh thank God, you were kidding! Well, anyway to be honest I think there's a good chance you're reading a little too much into this. I mean the whole "unbeliever having faith" theory makes sense but I'm not too sure about the other stuff.

1upmushroom

I think he was talking to Carl LBD.

1upmushroom

It's because the Christians don't believe God would have a reason for using Evolution when he can make humans out of entirely new material. That and the fact that the bible they blieve in clearly states that humans were made by God and not evolution.

OH now I get it! Your being sarcastic! Now everything makes a lot more sense.

1upmushroom

@Skull Kid: No, but you'd be the first person to put false advertising in an SMB Related video.

1upmushroom

The scary thing is, I don't think he's joking.

1upmushroom

Welcome aboard man. Just don't try any of your moon crushing antics here ok? It wasn't funny in Termina, and it definitley isn't funny here! :P But seriously speaking, I hope you confronted your mom about that. I mean I'm fairly sure you did but it did rather mean to keep you away from a movie just ...

1upmushroom

True, but here's my arguement. For starters, going to the set where the film was made doesn't count as a fan work. A fan work is when someone makes a prop or a piece literature or a low budget film based around a certain property that's not theirs. Walking around a set that used for the film with a ...

1upmushroom

I love how no one realizes that A. This was already brought up in the thread "The SMB Crew was a brave crew" and B. That this has nothing to do with fan works! But maybe that's just me.

1upmushroom

You know what's even more awesome? Years before this list the SMB would always make the 5th spot on a Top 5 or the 10th spot on a Top 10 great video game movie list. But now? SMB made it halfway through the list. That is pretty awesome imo.

1upmushroom

Well that's a little understandable but the way I see it, I think they dropped Luke altogether and just parodied Han Solo. I mean yeah he does do many things that Luke did but it's still the huff and gruff Han Solo parody.

1upmushroom

There's nothing wrong with putting a little bit of you in your characters. But the ones I'm talking about put a little bit too much of themselves into their characters. They go way overboard!

1upmushroom

Um do you mind elaborating why you hate it so much? I mean, I'm not trying to annoy you or anything, that just caught me a little.

1upmushroom

Hmm, well I'm sorry for your loss man. Has anyone ever thought about buying that old place?

1upmushroom

Is there anything significant on it or is it just a regular old poster for the movie? I'm just curious.

Wanna bet? That one interview where he famously quoted that SMB was the worst thing he ever did came out in 2007 (I think). I'm pretty sure his opinion hasn't chagned.

1upmushroom

What's with the caPitlized Ps? Are you trying to tell me something?

1upmushroom

Has anyone ever watched Spaceballs? If you haven't you're totally missing out! While it may not be Mel Brooks best comedy, Spaceballs still delivers strong with good performances, good characters albiet stereotypical ones, and of course lots and lots of gags! Like: 1-2-3-4-5?! That's the stupidest c...

1upmushroom

It's still out of character though. I don't know maybe it's because I didn't reall care for the different characterization in CoC but it kind of bothered me.

1upmushroom

It's not like we had a strong chance anyway. Oh well, let's hope he's at least able to enjoy his retirement.

1upmushroom

You know after rewatching the Castle of Cagliostro I have to give a lower score in my opinion, mostly because of how Lupin is protrayed. In that movie, he's very much a gentlemen theif and says things like Trust the theif and such. Now I'm bothered by this because well...this is Lupin we're talking ...

1upmushroom

I agree there's definitly a "Unbeliever finding faith" subtext with Mario but the rest I'm not too sure about. Daisy's religious views have always interested me but we never delved into that.

1upmushroom

I don't know what's funnier, the fact that this thread is a war zone or the fact that it's for all for not seeing how Serum isn't that much of a videogame fan anymore.

1upmushroom

Actually from what I heard, Leguizamo doesn't really hate the film, he just doesn't think it was a high point in his career. Bob Hoskins is the one who hates the film withn a burning passion. though I'm pretty sure a little bit is exagerrated.

1upmushroom

I can't believe no one, not even Serum said they watched the SMBMOVIE on this thread. I thought that was pretty obvious.

1upmushroom

The show was less faithful than the movie? "Ahem" The cartoon is about Mario, Luigi, Toad, and the Princess stopping Koopa from doing evil. The movie is about Mario and Luigi stopping Koopa a T Rex descendent from merging two dimensions together so that he can take over our dimension with ...

1upmushroom

Eh, I'm not sure that'll happen. They're in pretty good condition.
