A place for those who "Trust the Fungus"

I'm also apprehensive about the inclusion of Waluigi since he's largely a gimmick character created solely to give Luigi an unneeded opposite. He's appeared in no actual game that would provide some sort of justification of his character. However, I'm open to the idea of him having validity, and a f...

Yes, the boots. They could have at least released themed velcro sneakers or ski boots.

I like it. Curious how a ghost plays into the parallel world concept, though.

True. He did play a fairly dramatic and dickish role in King Kong. If he played it up he could play a suitable Jennewein/Parker Mario.

The ice tunnel scene does have some pretty rockin' music, but it's so. damn. slow . Some cuts would drastically speed it up, but it's still otherwise a fun scene. And you're right: the "dancing Goomba" scene really is very memorable. Funny, for an idea that was completely improvised. :P I ...

A lot of the kids that were there jumped & screamed when Koopa became that T-rex (It was actually freaky seeing that for the first time in a theater, especially as a young 4 year old) Don't remember much else, only half the people there stayed the whole movie, as it was removed from the theater...

This is amazing, jka12002. Showing only the eyes create an entire mood for the "sequel" without revealing any specifics. It's an awesome concept which I'd actually love to see translated into a mock-up sequel poster sometime. Think you could do that?

Ello' people! :wink: Imma new member, (not something you see everyday!) simply joining because I enjoy Super Mario Bros.! :) You'd be surprised! We've had 12 new and returning members this month alone! We're glad to add you to that list. :P For the very same reasons as you (and more!) I also find t...

Jack Black is an interesting choice for this particular version of Mario. While I think he could pull off a level-headed "Mario," the '91 script's version of Mario is just so gruff and hardened that it'd be a sore waste of Black's comedic talents. People expecting Black for his comedy woul...

I'm glad to hear Super Mario Land came into play for your concept of one of the sequels considering how well that game plays into Princess Daisy's presence in the original. Still, I have to wonder how it would have inspired you since, in my opinion, the most that can be taken from it are the great l...

I'm also curious what you might think of all the information we've managed to discover and compile onto the site, those interviews in particular. (There's mention of a deleted scene involving Koopa in the interview with Jeff Goodwin I think you might enjoy :wink:) Those sound like theyâ€™ll be very...

It isn't as much difficult to believe as it is to stomach in knowing that that was a real worm in Fiona Shaw's glass. I thought it only looked authentic. *cringes* I've always thought her a brilliant and beautiful actress. But I have even more admiration and respect for her now in learning that doi...

From my perspective, the reputation this film has had has always been as if the project never had a chance but from the little I've seen on this site it seems like there actually was some proper substance to it in the beginning. Good to know I'm not crazy for seeing some sort of potential when watc...

I actually meant the first sequel when I said "Part II," as that's really where our curiosity as the fans lie. I'd love to see you visually explore your casting choices. It'd be interesting to see how you could present Depp as Wart, for example. I was still curious about "Part II"...

That's an interesting idea. Almost a call-forward to what was done in Luigi's Mansion later on. The movie and early scripts did seem to either predict or influence concepts later explored in the games, so I could see the sequels doing things before the games actually did.

I actually like that as a tagline. Really, the movies (if they had been continued) would only need to be sequentially numbered, at least until the fourth one (Super Mario Bros. 4: Super Mario World being the first subtitled Mario game). However, it would be clever to have taglines slyly referencing ...

I'm not much into music but I love a good soundtrack cover. The latter two are especially great since your "casting" choices really give a glimpse into how those actors might depict your chosen characters. It's also interesting to see Hopper featured on IV: The Lost Level, considering he'd...

These are great concepts, Winger. While your casting choices are questionable, I could see them working rather well. There's no questioning Depp and Black's acting abilities, so they could fill those roles well. (I'd be especially curious to see mid-'90s Depp in such a role) My favorite posters are ...

It is a little creepy that you've been here since the site was first made, but really just more surprising. :P I'm glad you finally decided to create an account, though I'm curious why you decided do so only just now. I don't remember ever being scared of the movie when I was younger, though I can u...

What's also another crazy thing about the film (amongst many) is that it has Irish actress Fiona Shaw in it as Lena, Koopa's secretary or whatever they are to each other which is a pretty big role in the film. She stabs Yoshi! That actually is pretty crazy. Most people here just think of her as tha...

Welcome to the boards, shay. It's good to have another non-American fan around since you all typically have an interesting perspective on the film. It's widely disliked here in America, but for some reason has a fair amount of appreciation abroad. That's perhaps the reason why it has had regional di...

The special effects for the movie have actually aged very well considering the technical limitations of the time and the budget. Not only that, but the SFX is limited largely to brief but important shots. The most appropriate application of modern digital effects would be completing sequences that m...

And Iâ€™ll certainly check out those interviewsâ€¦thereâ€™s a lot on this site that I want to read/look through thoroughly. I'm also curious what you might think of all the information we've managed to discover and compile onto the site, those interviews in particular. (There's mention of a deleted...

Sure! This would make a great addition to the fan art galleries. If you're up for it I'd love to see other examples in the same vein.

I actually have a few other drawings I did that I'll post later (unfortunately, my scanner died a few years ago, so I'll have to take snapshots). One is a framed piece I did of Koopa, Iggy and Spike; while the other features Wendy, Daisy, and Bertha (I always thought she was an awesome character, a...

I like the style you used in drawing her. While she's a bit too colorful for Dinohattan's usual fashion-sense and could use some more spikes, I like the character design nonetheless. She's certainly well-drawn and cute. It's too bad you won't be drawing anymore, though, since you do have some talent...

I think some of these cuts/changes would work well in the movie, but some of them are simply too much or would be impossible to implement. Personally, the one idea that really stands out to me is the "GAME OVER...?" title, which would have been a pretty cute way to reference video games in...

Super Mario Bros.: the Movie was what first opened the doors to my love and appreciation for this remarkable actor. Therefore, it was very sad for me to hear that he had died. :cry: Koopa was Hopper's first and truest role for most of us. Many of us grew up viewing Hopper as Mario's ultimate nemesi...

Okay, this is awesome.

I happened to come across someone selling (yes, selling ) modded skins of the Thwomp Stomper boots for the online game Second Life. https://d44ytnim3cfy5.cloudfront.net/assets/1326595/view_large/21d8b5742391997b452b2ff21e82054a.jpg?1277219719 The creator, Lata Paine, helpfully describes the item thu...

Hey there, Chaicube. Glad you took up my offer to join the board and post your entire live-tweet of the movie. It was great following your comments throughout the movie's airing, even if Twitter wouldn't allow for your full thoughts. :) I'll comment on only a select few, but I'm sure someone else mi...

An animated series would have been totally cool. It would have been in the same vein as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or The Real Ghostbusters: a dark atmosphere with a semi-realistic art style, but ultimately comedic with lots of visual gags. The episode-by-episode story might have been weak unless ...

I'll try and get my Wendy O. fanart up later tonight. And I know what you mean about the visuals in the movie. I thought they did an amazing job with the actors' makeup, costumes and set designs. One of my favorite parts about the movie was Yoshi, who I thought was adorable, and the way they made h...

I don't mind the tracing either. You wanted an authentic look and that was the best way to do it. You did everything else personally so it's not a very big deal... At least you did some nice work on Luigi!

Phlibbit spent an entire day scanning, cropping, editing, and creating individual pages for every single card of the SkyBox set. Once again, an unbelievable amount of work for yet another great update.

It's always great informing fans there's a place just for us. It does sometimes seem as if the movie is vastly unappreciated, but in actuality there's our site and our small community of longtime fans. There's still thousands of fans out there that have yet to realize this place exists, though, so i...

Just like last time, it seems a lot of people weren't even aware it existed. Most were fascinated by the mere idea of such a thing ever being produced, so it was a good way to reel in new fans. Another funny thing is that a lot of girls seems to really like the movie while it's the gamer guys that b...

Having said that, I wonder if someone could take Leguizamo's head from the interview and find a good shot of the movie to combine it with... It'd be a pretty cool project to composite Leguizamo's mustache onto Luigi's lip throughout the entire movie, or at least a scene or two. It'd be ridiculous t...

Well, I just finished watching, and I don't think anything was cut-- not even any of the Two Towers scenes. The part where Daisy joins the missing girls at first seemed to cut off abruptly, but I think it might have been like that to begin with. As it turns out, the movie ran over it's projected ti...

You posting this is so funny, sicky. Phlibbit and I have actually been looking into this mystery over the last week due to the comments of several Italian fans. At first we were only able to track down the cover, but any actual evidence of the movie itself being different proved elusive. Eventually,...
