A place for those who "Trust the Fungus"

It would be great to see UE5000 take elements from the fantasy script for his own anniversary shorts, but adapting the entire screenplay into nearly two hours of animation is too much to even fathom.

It could never be done, unless I was THAT dedicated as a fan. Other than that, I just couldn't do it. I don't even know if my SMB2 will ever be made, I get so ahead of myself sometimes, and then think do I really want to do this again? It's kind of like Bill Murray and Ghostbusters 3, one minute he says yes, the next he says no. It's just a battle with myself.

I'd realy like to work on a pilot that I wrote already and began storyboarding, but just can't get time to do it, or not feel the groove.

I'm glad what redstar is saying as well, some fans of my mario cartoon or anime, just don't understand and want me to make more and more Mario cartoons. But it's difficult and takes a lot of time.

You'll find that spark soon enough. The new year always brings inspiration and drive. Let's just see where you are in a few months.

How could I have forgotten to mention this? I will be remastering the cartoon, doing a George Lucas to it, adding new Special effects, re-dubbing, adding new backgrounds, and most importantly, I will be fixing the widescreen issue. which is already almost fixed, it will now be in a real 1080p. The same will be done with the first Mario Bros. cartoon as well, that is actually complete, it just needs re-dubbed for a third time. More news on this will come in the future.

So after working on SMB2, I went back and fixed the widescreen issue I had with the first cartoon. Also I am doing a recoloring, and JamesManExtreme will be re-dubbing the first two sketches. Here are some images.

1All right everyone, this cartoon is getting a huge make over! First, new voice cast from SMB2, new backgrounds, new color scheme, new effects. It looks marvelous. I have a few new images, and side by side comparisons.

Here are some comparison shots from the new Remastering. All of Peach's frames have been re-drawn to look and feel more like the video game counter part.





I also have a big surprise that I will say now.


Mario face from SMBSS will be making appearances for certain transitions.

You've clearly made some improvement in your art. More detail and better proportioned bodies. The updated colors are also very nice.

This is looking like an excellent experience for fans.

Do you have a Newgrounds account? I haven't frequented the community in years, but I believe it still serves as a good animation hub. You should consider sharing your Mario films there to reach a wider audience.

I was never happy with the final results of the first cartoon. I thought it looked terrible and had bad pacing at times. Some poorly drawn characters. Mostly Peach and the Toad soldiers that strangely dissapear. They have been ridden of. It's really fun going back over old stuff and making it better. I honestly now understand why George Lucas kept improving Star Wars.

As for Newgrounds, I will definetly have to check it out. I havent been on the site in years. I did just recently create a new youtube that will be solely dedicated to Mario cartoons. SMBAll-Stars. It will have it's official launch when Remastered and SMB2 are done.

TRAILER TIME! Enjoy the trailer to the remastered version.

Well remastering could have finished the other day, but I said no. There's one more thing I want to do, then it lead to 2. So here are some beta images.









Still works in progress, but as you all can see the first cartoon will be given the true real feel look of the original Mario instruction manual designs.

Just a heads up, SMB1 REMASTERED, should be out this week or next week. It's finally close to being done, and this looks a thousand times better than the original. George Lucas eat your heart out with digitally remastering. Once this is done though, I will finally go back and finish up SMB2, still all thats left is backgrounds, background music, and sound effects, and timing. Let's all hope for the best and then I can finally live a normal life again.

ALRIGHT EVERYONE! This is the moment we have waited for! Super Mario Bros. Deluxe! (aka my George Lucasafied version of the first cartoon) Not sure if anyone remembers that trailer I posted a month ago or so, well that footage was completely scrapped and basicly started from scratch. So here it is!
