A place for those who "Trust the Fungus"

I was on Zelda Informer today and saw this

I agree that Captain America is probably the biggest reason that The Rocketeer is being re-released, but it's also the film's 20th anniversary so that could have something to do with it. Also, Captain America is being released near the end of October, so they're about a month apart in release. Altho...

Mono41

Alright, for those of you who don't know, the Rocketeer is a comic book super hero that was adapted into a movie in the summer of 1991. Like our favorite video game to film adaption, the film was a box office flop, it received a crappy DVD release, has become a cult film, and is a Disney film. Here'...

I like that it says "25 years of experience." Cuz it's totally true.

I really liked The Hero of Time (zelda movie), even though the SFX werent great. You gotta remember that it was a FAN FILM and not "hollywood made." I even made my own DVD for it...

That last bit about the falling onto the fungus, reminds me of the Spider-Man ride at Universal, where, at the end, Spidey catches us with a web. Hmm, I haven't been to Universal in a long time...ten years last summer. I suppose there are only so many ways in which you can pull off a grand finale. ...

Mono41

Now THAT would be cool. I'm just trying to throw everything I can think of at the riders. And I just thought of one more thing: The train goes through a series of Mario Pipes that take it to different sections of the Dinoverse (I can't think of a better name, sorry) or blasts the train in different...

Mono41

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. Well theres mor...

Mono41

Yeah, I'm really hoping it doesn't look like total crap, cuz I can't really find any costume pieces that look like Koopa's hair. Haha. The Goombas are also giving me trouble...hopefully LittleBigPlanet 2 will give me more costume pieces to work with.

Mono41

I think they're going to cut any shots of the Twin Towers.

Mono41

Here's something I posted in a different thread, but I figured people might find it better if I put it here:

* My cousin noticed that when Mario falls into the rock, he changes colors on his way to Dinohattan, kinda like when Mario gets a Starman power-up.

Mono41

Haha. oops. I thought you were talking about for a movie franchise. Well, for the game, that still might be interesting...my friend once said, "what if Mario had blood and gore in it?" Ok that was slightly off topic, but yeah, it might be interesting...

Mono41

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. Yeah, the text looked alot better when it was bigger. Then when I made it small, the metal material has some limits, so it got all weird. When LittleBigPlanet 2 c...

Mono41

A serious tone sounds interesting, but I'd have to actually see it to decide. I also don't think it would do good at the box office if it was too serious. The movie is perfect example. They used a very serious tone and for some reason, people didn't like it...

Mono41

I feel like a complete idiot. lol. Yeah I just remembered, I have TWO controllers. That means I could just use the second player to act as Luigi...wow I feel stupid...haha

EDIT: Ok I added the newer version.

Mono41

Using one of my favorite games, LittleBigPlanet, I decided to re-create everyone's favorite poster with the Bros. in the big "M" V.2 http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NhVeRhkiO4o/TSI7T4S6-oI/AAAAAAAAAGk/7oIZO724szA/s1600/smb2.jpg V.1 http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NhVeRhkiO4o/TSIxOS_UawI/AAAAAAAAAGc/_T...

Mono41

Well...I took one for the team and bought the thing. I don't have it in front of me right now, but it's basically a collection of SMB movie-related Wikipedia articles, such as "Super Mario Bros. Film," "Mario," "Luigi," "Bowser," "Bob Hoskins," &quo...

Another thing, Japan got so lucky to have the 25th Anniversary edition of SMB where the ? blocks are replaced with 25, and whatever else changes they have. I would really like to have that game.

I was on the Barnes & Noble website and I looked up Super Mario Bros and found something interesting.

http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Super-Mario-Bros/Lambert-M-Surhone/e/9786130434816/?itm=1&USRI=super+mario+bros

Does anyone know what it is?

Mono41

Thanks, Phlibbit!

Mono41

Phlibbit's edit: I took that big pic out and got a nice screen capture of the scene. Something else I noticed, Is that when Mario comes to the rescue of the "Missing Brooklyn Girls" they walk toward the air vent and on the wall you can see the Koopa's Troopas poster. This one: http://www....

Mono41

Those are great! Keep it up--I can't wait to see more. I would imagine that you could make a pretty cool Devo chamber out of Legos... I can try the Devo chamber, but I don't know if I can do it. Minifigure customization is easy for me, but actually building things like that from scratch, not so muc...

I created some custom LEGO minifigures of the characters from Super Mario Bros, but for now all I have is this: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NhVeRhkiO4o/TJTKrSuNbGI/AAAAAAAAAFw/B5Z2q2kEyA0/s320/DSC00397.JPG I plan to add more as I create them.

Mono41

Okay I e-mailed them but I just copied and pasted Incognitus's e-mail to them: Hello I recently noticed that BuenaVista re-released the DVD from the movie Super Mario Bros. (1993) with new cover. But the film it's not anamorphic and the picture looks streched out in widescreen TVs. Also, the DVD doe...

Mono41

Are you a Disney rep trying to make this thing die quickly? :D Of course not! I love this movie! :D The most mind-boggling deal here is how there actually are anamorphic versions of the film on DVD...with special features...in other countries. At this point, there's just no excuse. When someone dec...

Mono41

I want to go to this guy's house, punch him in the face and throw a copy of Super Mario Bros. (movie of course!) at him. Not much but that's what I feel like.

Mono41

I don't see the big deal. I own a widescreen TV and I'm fine with the way it looks. No special features? Fine by me. Hey, at least we even got a DVD release.

It could be worse. We could be stuck with just the VHS.

I wanted to make sure I was right about the cover and... http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NhVeRhkiO4o/TJEOCJ1BMvI/AAAAAAAAAFY/spcRuWTfDnY/s320/Mario.png http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NhVeRhkiO4o/TJEOUXkU9JI/AAAAAAAAAFg/WFSe85SJLMY/s320/Mario2.png Sorr...

Where on earth did you buy those Stompers from? I only own the foam boot seen in the multiple pics at the top of this page... But I WISH I owned the hero boots... The boot I own came from a private collection. I knew you only owned one but I guess I wasn't paying close enough attention when I typed...

Mono41

Where on earth did you buy those Stompers from?

Mono41

I'm not happy about the new cover--I saw it thinking it was an updated release, and was tricked into purchasing it, and disovered that it was just the same disc. I don't think anyone on this forum is semi-happy about it. The interesting thing is, if you read a lot of the comments on the news storie...

Mono41

Well it doesn't matter how new the cover is as long as everyone is semi-happy. You know cuz they're happy 'bout the new cover but not happy 'bout no features or it being non-anamorphic.

Mono41

The cover isn't that new. I rented back in mid-July and the cover was this "new" one. I know it was, cause I remember wondering why Koopa was all blue. also the Blockbuster sticker was covering up "The Washington Post" (where it says "It's a Blast!").
