A place for those who "Trust the Fungus"

What I'm curious about is whether someone from MEL or even one of the six Goomba actors did that role or if the commercial studio got someone else for it.

Great comic, Carl. The style is just about how I'd imagine a comic adaptation of the movie to have looked: somewhat realistic and a bit darker-looking, but the same little visual gags the movie had. I like how the lizard-head Goomba looks more like a pinheaded-T. rex and has a more menacing, intelli...

That's a fair enough motivation, though I hope to see you add some subtext to the interactions between the various characters. I think Vorton could be so much more, especially if there's implication of there having been more behind Bowser.

Its called Koopa's Devo-Stick: The Devo-Stick is kinda like a sci-fi take of the wands in Mario 3. The Devo-Stick is alot like the wand, its even white and has a jewel, but the Devo-Stick also has 2 features. Evovle and De-evovle. With this stick, not only can Koopa de-evovle things but he can also...

Welcome to the board, bob-omb! There's certainly a lot of longtime fans of the movie here so you'll find yourself having a lot to talk about. We're glad that you've found your way here and hope you stick around.

I know I'd love to see how you colored the book if you can find it.

It's pretty funny that even here, among fans of the movie, we still get people bringing up (no, not complaining , just "mentioning") the fact that Leguizamo had a mustache during that interview. Personally, it never occurred to me until the last few seconds and even then I was only a littl...

Here is a quick update featuring some SFX work for a mario clip. Truck Driving SFX Shot Brief synopsis of scene. Mario and Luigi arrive to the "job" and pull into a driveway. They stop and get out. Runtime about 15 seconds. Sounds like an incredible amount of work for such a brief period ...

You know, that actually sounds somewhat possible.

Good to hear you're so near completion. Cutting out the live-action segments is probably a good idea, if only to get this project done sooner. You can always do the segments as a new project in the future and insert them into this.

Glad you could get to the backup. GoChaunceyGo has possession of the original digital document and neither Phlibbit no myself could find it. Since Chauncey hasn't been around in awhile we haven't been able to fix the problem and have had to rely on our affiliate. It will be fixed soon enough. Lookin...

Daisy is possible, given her importance. Maybe Bertha, since she's... well, let's just say she's not remotely girly and would look like she could whoop any other action figure in the line's butt. Boys probably wouldn't mind her so much. Bertha seems like a really good figure for the exact reasons y...

A complete set of the German lobby cards (12 in all) is currently being sold on eBay here for $19.99, plus $13 s & h. A bit high, I'd say, so if anyone's interested see if you can contact the seller for a lower price.

If you find an auction of any sort offering Goomba materials (busts, skins, maquettes, costumes, etc.) feel free to post it here. Perhaps someone will be interested and end up buying it. On eBay someone is selling busts of the ape-head and Hark (Toad)-head for $199, plus $20 s & h. Check it out ...

That's what we get for trusting the media to provide accurate information!

Yeah, once it got to Sunday I was curious about it not having aired yet. Sunday doesn't seem like the kind of day they would slot it into.

By the way, I've just read the whole topic, and thanks to everyone for pointing out so many disturbing coincidences and cute details related to the Super Mario video games series 8) That's what this topic is for! Both because it's fun picking out all these little references to the games and also be...

"Ground T. rex meat"? Damn. Even the top of the food chain gets eat in Dinohattan... :P I love chicken wings, but there's no fowl to be found in Dinohattan. Closest parallel might be the Allosaurus rats... So, Buffallosaurus rat! - Cut Allosaurus rat arms and legs - Deep-fried in lizard oi...

It's January... The Year of the Fungus, I'm starting to think.

You said you'd begin work on the SFX this year, so I'm eager to see where the project stands at this point. Any updates on what we can expect and when?

LBD_Nytetrayn's recent post in the Lame IGN Article--"10 Ways to Make a Good Mario Movie" thread and my response to both him and an earlier post by Phlibbit reminded me of a similar, yet better executed article entitled Could've Been A Krull: Super Mario Brothers . Just as the IGN article ...

I'll just merge this thread with the original.

I'm sure you'll be able to respond to some of the posts there (now here) and continue the discussion.

Thoughts/Comments: And he gives the Will Ferrell "Bewitched" movie as a "good" reference for a future film template. Well, the article does say "[...] but something a little self-referential wouldn't go amiss. Go meta. Will Ferrell's Bewitched movie managed to be about the ...

That's much better! Aside from the little bits of yellow still on the top of his tongue and chin, this design works much better than the original attempt. The recoloring works really well with Koopa's film design in general. If you take requests, I'd like to see a picture showing more of the snakesk...

Perhaps there's a third trailer. jka2001 even describes a TV spot somewhat similarly in this thread.

That actually turned out rather well. Glad you were able to take to my request so soon. :P You're right that the face doesn't look so good, but the recoloring of the hair and suit really shines and could have definitely worked as a character design that alludes more to the game's version of Koopa wh...

Since you said there was no French DVD release I assumed that the dub itself was a bootleg. Completely forgot the VHS, which is a shame since I love that medium. Anyways, sure, download it if you like. The process as you described it seems like it would take a long time so don't feel obligated. We'd...

Yes, we have this commercial.

Media and all its sub-sections will be filled this coming weekend, Trailers and the "Jump" trailer specifically included.

Nice catch. That statement from the directors (which is definitely not the last to come) certainly indicates that they or Disney had high hopes for this property. It's too bad it flopped and we never got to see just how far they would have gone. Unfortunately for this topic, incognitus had the same ...

So the French "release" is a bootleg dub, essentially?

Well, if you're interested, someday I can try to write a complete French script of the movie, I'm pretty sure it doesn't exist anywhere on the internet and it could be an exclusive addition to your website. We'd definitely be interested in that. I've come across just one line from the French versio...

It's called the Boom Boom Bar in English, which is a reference to the arm-swinging mini-boss in Super Mario Bros. 3. The "Cool Koopa" is a pretty cool name, however. If you're up for it you should start a thread on all the names they use in the French version so we can tell you what the En...

Of course! :) I actually own this game for the SNES and played it for a few days during a rough time in my life, but I've never truly been able to get into it. It's an incredibly difficult game that requires skill that I unfortunately don't have. It probably doesn't help that I first played this gam...

Yes, that was me. :D I'm glad to see you had the time to take up my offer and stop by. It's always great to help another fan of the movie realize there's a place just for us. And what a place this is! :P We have more information and discussion on the movie than anywhere else. I'm surprised more peop...

The Cool Koopa? Do you mean the dance club they go to with Iggy and Spike?

I don't see why a Canadian airing of the movie would cut out the Twin Towers shot, especially since American networks have been depicting the Towers in film broadcasts without problem for the last few years. Besides, a one-second shot hardly constitutes a 13-minute runtime decrease.

I love this concept. The color-scheme of the original Fire costumes are arguably one of the defining features of the original Super Mario Bros. (Can anyone dismiss how awesome it feels to first get a Fire Flower and start shooting Goombas and Koopas?) Your re-coloring of the film's costumes is nearl...

That'd be really cool. The movie has some really exciting set design that would translate perfectly into a video game. I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do.

My girl enjoys facial hair as well. It can be nice not having to clean up every day and still get your chin stroked. :P Sounds good. Five minutes of a live-action sketch seems like it could be a long time compared to the duration of the actual cartoon, but I'm sure you can tell the segment's story w...

Oh, it was on last weekend, too? Wish I'd known, in case it was up here... I'd record it, but sadly, I lack the equipment to do so. Yes, it played the first weekend of 2011. Phlibbit and I then resolved that this was going to be a good year. :D Ah. That's too bad about lacking any equipment to reco...

The movie should get a lot of new fans through this. It aired on the Family Channel last weekend (not sure which country/region) and Twitter was receiving tweets about it throughout the entire day from hundreds of people. It was a great opportunity to speak with people that had never seen or even he...

Cool way to create fan art for the movie. The text and color could use some work but it's a great concept. Hope to see it explored more.
