====== IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT ====== Hello all! This hasn't been mentioned on the site, so I want to make this perfectly clear to everyone: Second Sight's Blu-Ray and DVD release of the Mario movie will be Region 2 only . (This has been confirmed by Phlibbit.) What this means is that the DVD / BD wi...

Sonicroc

Besides being HD, what differences will there be between DVD & Blue ray? I've just got a DVD player and no plans to upgrade anytime soon. Yay, I'm not the only one! :D @Phlibbit: Your predictions of DVD's extinction have yet to come true! Aside from a few Pixar bonus-features discs I can't play...

Sonicroc

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *de-evolves* Phlibbit, you utterly demolished my argument! I feel so small. Fortunately for you, I can be convinced rather easily with a good old argument. And it's a pity that you're so good at arguing your point, because: We have no delusions that Dis...

Sonicroc

Hmm, you raise a good point. Conflict... of... interests... :x I guess I need to think this over a bit more... But what are the chances they actually will re-release it with bonus features? I mean, I know the movie is still being sold in stores right now, but I think that's just because lots of Mari...

Sonicroc

Why wasn't this anime released in the US anyway? It seems like a heck of a lot of people would buy it, but maybe I'm wrong.

Sonicroc

By "updated", do you mean it would be a director's cut or something, or are you just talking about film quality? Anyway, one last thing I feel like I should mention: If Blu-ray entirely replaces DVD, as the official Blu-ray website predicts (whyever would they want us thinking that, eh? :r...

Sonicroc

See, I'm rather annoyed at Disney for their current shift to Blu-ray. For instance, the DVDs for Up and Toy Story 3 work horribly on my DVD player (chapters repeat, screen goes black indefinitely, etc.). They only work right on other players. I have been buying Pixar DVDs for years. This problem coi...

Sonicroc

I REFUSE!!! [to ask Disney for a Blu-ray release] But I guess that's because I don't have Blu-ray. The media has not succeeded in convincing me that there is something wrong with the picture on my standard-definition screen.

Sonicroc

Wait, I don't get it. A short Mario film is going to be part of a bigger movie... that isn't about Mario? How exactly are you going to pull that off?

(Btw, it looks awesome! I'm just a little confused.)

Sonicroc

Oh yeah, I think that's my favorite old Mario game too! I won it on my Gameboy Advance. 8) Anyway, I like it except... I don't get this sentence: "Mario and Luigi are brought back by Daisy for a completely different reason." Does this mean that this does or doesn't continue directly off th...

Sonicroc

Dude, that is hilarious!

Sonicroc

Um, is it too late for me to reply? (I've been gone for quite awhile...) Anyway, I think it's quite simple. They needed Daisy to be a human in order for her to fit into the real world, but she had to also be the species of the people who live in Dinohatten. The only way around it would be to make th...

Sonicroc

Did that really just say... they're making a movie of... SPACE INVADERS? And they're also making a Pac-Man movie... I'd say making a new Mario movie really doesn't seem that strange at the moment. LOL, you can tell by the shots they chose of the Mario movie that they were trying to make it look bad....

Sonicroc

Pretty much all of Koopa's lines. Sometimes I randomly throw out Koopa quotes, namely: *whispering* Plumbers! Monkey! I'll kill that plumbeeeerrrr! Where's the rock? You know what I love about mud? It's dirty and it's clean at the same time! Goomba sah cray... (The subtitles say "Goombas, ahh&q...

Sonicroc

YES, of course I thought of Donkey Kong. LOL. I didn't think anyone else did, though.

And no, I didn't read your spoiler. I still hope they release that movie some day in America!

Not that they will, but I don't like watching movies on YouTube, especially in Japanese without subtitles.

Sonicroc

Dude, thanks a lot! :mrgreen: I have watched through most of the scenes over and over again, looking for video game references, etc., so it's interesting to see them changed. :) I wonder why they got rid of the cafe scene. Maybe they didn't want to have to pay for the dishes! :lol: Ha, that's one of...

Sonicroc

Awesome!

Sonicroc

Now the link doesn't even show. It just says "Image."

Sonicroc

Welcome to the forum!

You know, for a box-office flop of a movie, it sure seems to have a good number of fans!

Sonicroc

Congrats on the marriage!

I assume the spambot was what posted all those airline ticket ads? LOL, who would actually buy from something so annoying anyway? Besides, are Mario Movie fans known for their taste for travel?

Sonicroc

Sweet. But the image doesn't appear in your post. I just followed the link. I'm not sure why it didn't work. Maybe you have "Disable BBCode in this post" checked.

Sonicroc

Welcome to the forum!

It's nice to see so many Mario movie fans are finding this place!

Sonicroc

Ingenious!

EDIT: Out of curiosity, what did you use to rip the video?

Sonicroc

Wow that turned out great!

Sonicroc

That was a nice interview.

It's really cool that you got to meet Mario and Luigi in person!

It's too bad all that was destroyed. What a waste. But I guess that's something to expect in the film industry.

Anyway, how's the draft script coming along?

Sonicroc

This is so exciting!

But I hope 8 perf doesn't leave the forum after the interview's done.

Sonicroc

Welcome to the forum!

I can understand some of that, but no translator is perfect.

Sonicroc

Oh, I gotcha.

Sonicroc

Nice pics! The On Set ones aren't that good by themselves but... You actually got to see that?! That would have been so sweet!

Another question I thought of: As far as you know, were there any intended messages in the movie besides "believe?" I've been pondering that lately...

Sonicroc

Sweet!

Maybe you can answer some questions in the "Devo-Chamber Scene" thread...

Sonicroc

Sounds great!

But what's that about being "heavily fictionalized?" I think it would be more interesting if it was what actually happened...

Sonicroc

Cool!

But I can't think of any questions, except perhaps asking him about the devo-chamber thing. I dunno, he might know why it was cut or something. He might at least know what actor he had to de-evolve into the "jelly"... I hope other people come up with better ideas.

Sonicroc

Really? I was right? YES! Score one for Sonicroc! :D *ahem* Anyway, you say it changed a million times... So do you have more than one script? Or was it in the book or something? Lemmy... That's one of the Koopalings! :idea: Do you suppose he was Iggy's brother? And do you know, by any chance, which...

Sonicroc

Good find! :D But I'm not too sure about Egan still. The Devo Controller and Devo Technician are already credited. I'm using this site for the credits, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0108255/fullcredits#cast They have a good picture of Kevin West, listed as the devo controller, and he looks like the gu...

Sonicroc

After looking at the extended storyboard version of the devo-chamber scene, I noticed that Simon's "jelly" suddenly appears on the floor, giving Koopa something to slip on. (Either that or Toad made a stinky when he stood up. :P ) But Simon is in the scene later, so I'm not quite sure what...

Sonicroc

Whoa. I guess I just read that wrong... :oops: That's funny you posted this. I was thinking of animating the trailer sequel I wrote a script for, SMB II. The script is in the SMB 2 fan script thread. Yeah, it seems like everyone is thinking up some form of a sequel. It's hard to help, considering ho...

Sonicroc

Oh... So in the script, are Bloober and Wart mentioned, as well as Spike and Iggy? I don't know why I thought they were the same people. :P On the subject of unknown characters, do you know who Egan and James are? They're listed in the credits. PS: I couldn't get on the forum earlier today. Was it d...

Sonicroc

I love that line: "You will be a goomba, you, you, you, goombas. You sir, you have a family?" But really, I wouldn't like it if Koopa came back, especially if his plan was exactly the same as in the first movie. :roll: PS: You spelled "to" wrong in "cut too." :wink:

Sonicroc

:o Whoa, that is by far the weirdest interpretation of Super Mario Bros. 2 I've ever heard (that isn't a bad thing)! I'll be sure to read this when you finish it. now including a re-evolved Toad and Yoshi Wait... Yoshi's not a goomba, is he? :shock: I thought he was supposed to just be a normal dino...

Sonicroc

To tell you the truth, I've never thought of it that way. They even steal Mario's spotlight in video games (Wario Land, Super Koopa Cousins)! This is what Iggy Koopa looks like: http://www.mariomonsters.com/archives/media_viewer.php?id=4208 and this is what Spike looks like: http://www.mariomonsters...
