Can we actually talk about the movie?

In my opinion the "Brooklyn" seting actually looked pretty interesting and charming at the start of the movie, I would totally watch Mario&Luigi sitcon there. I hope they do that so called Little Mac movie, he got plenty of references there and it would fit on the setting.

After Mario meets Peach, the movie gets super rushed, it just keeps flipping between scenes without much time for things to weight. Peach meets him and is immediatly "go train, now lets go". Its also a bit weird how the movie starts presenting Mario as pretty good at parkour, just to hav him do a training montage later, I feel like doing one or another would have made more sense.

Peach being good at everything is definitly lame. It's a sign of insecurity from the part of the writers.

D.K is based, a highlight of the movie in my opinion - but the movie had already too many characters.

Luigi was Luigi.

Blue Shell was pretty cool.

The sequel better have MUCH more Bowser.

Overral fun movie to watch with little kids.

The fight to avoid extinction is basically the plot of Mario and Luigi partners in time where aliens come invading the planet so they defend themselves and get the aliens Shroobs basically extinct
And the demonic possession is basically every time something decides to take Bowser as their fleshsuit like dark bowser or bowletta

It was contained in a bubble that is the Mario RPG communities. But they are some of the lower selling series and when Nintendo revitalised Mario back to a 8-digit seller in the mid-late 2000s they made it so developers can't make their OC Donusteels of Mario characters.

You have angry little groups RPGfans whining about Nintendo using actual Mario characters instead of OCs. But the franchise won't get co-opted by them like Sonic.

I suspect they wanted to use as few recognizable named characters outside of the main roster as possible because its the first movie and there's already so much you have to acclimate to if you're perchance a baby looking at the mario world as more than just colorful shapes on a screen. There's already plenty of setup for the main toad to be Captain Toad in the sequel, and I have a feeling the character Charles Martinet plays may have a minor role by being revealed to be Jumpman. Other than that, there are so many directions they could go with a sequel that I wouldn't know where to start speculating

Can we actually talk about the movie?

In my opinion the "Brooklyn" seting actually looked pretty interesting and charming at the start of the movie, I would totally watch Mario&Luigi sitcon there. I hope they do that so called Little Mac movie, he got plenty of references there and it would fit on the setting.

After Mario meets Peach, the movie gets super rushed, it just keeps flipping between scenes without much time for things to weight. Peach meets him and is immediatly "go train, now lets go". Its also a bit weird how the movie starts presenting Mario as pretty good at parkour, just to hav him do a training montage later, I feel like doing one or another would have made more sense.

Peach being good at everything is definitly lame. It's a sign of insecurity from the part of the writers.

D.K is based, a highlight of the movie in my opinion - but the movie had already too many characters.

Luigi was Luigi.

Blue Shell was pretty cool.

The sequel better have MUCH more Bowser.

Overral fun movie to watch with little kids.

Are daddy issues now political? We've seen parental issues with characters for years? I like that Mario and Donkey Kong got over their differences because of a shared conflict.

And while Peach is too perfect, she has no character in the games. Maybe Miyamoto should have given Peach no character so she can be helpless and Mario can be left with only a Toad to help me figure out the world.

[Assistant]
>>136823505
>Are daddy issues now political?
No, they are pretty common in movies matter the politics. It's just that leftist cartoonists have some of their own due (from choosing an unsafe career and/or disagreeing politics with their parents, whether overplaying reality or not) so nearly every cartoon they make has them venting their personal ones.

It was contained in a bubble that is the Mario RPG communities. But they are some of the lower selling series and when Nintendo revitalised Mario back to a 8-digit seller in the mid-late 2000s they made it so developers can't make their OC Donusteels of Mario characters.

You have angry little groups RPGfans whining about Nintendo using actual Mario characters instead of OCs. But the franchise won't get co-opted by them like Sonic.

[Assistant]
>>136833078
>You have angry little groups RPGfans whining about Nintendo using actual Mario characters instead of OCs
Probably because Nintendo doesn't even use their own characters.

Wake me up when Donkey Kong, Wario, Yoshi, Daisy and Waluigi appear in the RPGs. Until then fans are going to obnoxiously clamor for dumb OCs because what the fuck else do they have?

With that said, it's massively disingenuous that the entire story of the core Super Mario series, which is to rescue the Princess, swapped with rescuing Luigi instead, something MUCH rarer, wasn't an obvious choice for obvious reasons.

Toad has been playable in a few Mario games, even playable in the core platformers. Yet that doesn't mean it's justifiable to make him the main protagonist of the entire movie just because "well it happened a few times". The culture warring is gay, but let's not pretend Peach's role being swapped with Luigi was just a random off creative decision.

It's what Nintendo wanted for this movie. They wanted an origin story and now that Mario knows who Peach is, the sequel is guaranteed to have her kidnapped because it is shown she has no real strength and is only acrobatic.

Tbf, most of the marketing around the movie was about Girlboss Peach and Beta Mario Bucks. So why wouldn't we think it was going to be woke trash when they themselves were telling us so? If there was a deeper better story they wanted to tell they sure as shit didn't advertise it.

Disclaimer: I don't think the movie should of had a kidnapping plot at all.

With that said, it's massively disingenuous that the entire story of the core Super Mario series, which is to rescue the Princess, swapped with rescuing Luigi instead, something MUCH rarer, wasn't an obvious choice for obvious reasons.

Toad has been playable in a few Mario games, even playable in the core platformers. Yet that doesn't mean it's justifiable to make him the main protagonist of the entire movie just because "well it happened a few times". The culture warring is gay, but let's not pretend Peach's role being swapped with Luigi was just a random off creative decision.

[Assistant]
>>136846267
It the long run it could be ok to give Peach more to do in the first movie. Since the success of this movie means Nintendo will allow more movies to be made, it's more likely Luigi would get his own spinoff than Peach. I've seen lots of people hoping for a Luigi's Mansion movie, not so much enthusiasm for a Super Princess Peach movie.

Can we actually talk about the movie?

In my opinion the "Brooklyn" seting actually looked pretty interesting and charming at the start of the movie, I would totally watch Mario&Luigi sitcon there. I hope they do that so called Little Mac movie, he got plenty of references there and it would fit on the setting.

After Mario meets Peach, the movie gets super rushed, it just keeps flipping between scenes without much time for things to weight. Peach meets him and is immediatly "go train, now lets go". Its also a bit weird how the movie starts presenting Mario as pretty good at parkour, just to hav him do a training montage later, I feel like doing one or another would have made more sense.

Peach being good at everything is definitly lame. It's a sign of insecurity from the part of the writers.

D.K is based, a highlight of the movie in my opinion - but the movie had already too many characters.

Luigi was Luigi.

Blue Shell was pretty cool.

The sequel better have MUCH more Bowser.

Overral fun movie to watch with little kids.

Never would have worked in 80-90. Musicals were considered uncool and gay by the wider audiences and especially kids and teens of the era. No one would have admitted to liking it. There is no way it would inspire a cartoon spinoff.

The Burton movies are the reason why there is a Goddamn Batman that cannot fail concept.

He would probably get a cartoon, but not the same as BTAS. Since the visuals would be limited to people who saw the show live or maybe a VHS recording, it wouldn't necessarily have the dark deco/retro-future noir aesthetic. It might be closer to Timm's Batman art from before BTAS, if he even works on it at all in this timeloine

I think I remember hearing in an interview that this was more of a happy coincidence.
If anything, we definitely would've gotten a more traditional-looking Penguin (which we still got in TNBA anyway) and a more retro-inspired Batmobile, perhaps with the giant bat head.

Any Batman cartoon made without the 89 movie propping it up would likely be another cheap, 13 episode at best Saturday morning thing like all the stuff that came out in the 80s. There was a Superman cartoon made around that time that never really did much, and fell right back into obscurity. Like the Plastic Man cartoon, or that last superfriends Superpowers cartoon. Never really remembered and just sort of came and went.

The 89 movie kind of made superhero stuff in general a much bigger deal than it was before. Comic characters were a typical IP farm for various cartoons, but they were never that successful. Batman made superhero things mainstream.

Stan Lee is also a much better hype man for Marvel than WB is for dC. seriously it's crazy that in all the 90's, we only got 1 Batman and 1 Superman cartoon.

Also, consider this; you have adults falling in love with the musical, kids tuning in to TAS, teens & young adults already hooked on the comics, and old folks being nostalgic for Adam West. Seems like genius strategy to prime Bats for the general movie-going public.

See your problem is you're thinking in hindsight, not as a 90's TV exec.
A Broadway musical isn't reaching kid's radars.
>old folks being nostalgic for Adam West
Funny thing is, if you watched BTAS as a kid on it's first run, you're older than a kid who watched '66 on it's first run would've been by 1989.

Not in the early 90s. There is a reason things from that era was so dark brooding, and edgy. Everything had to be edgy and extreme, even kids stuff. Everything had to be rebellious, metal and "hardcore" and totally against old tradition.

This is the same reason the High School Musical episode of South Park was about the kids being fucking bewildered that children and high schoolers were into singing and dancing on tv. That stuff is so absolutely opposite of what was considered okay in the 80s and 90s, especially for teens that is blew their minds.

Ehh, you are really missing the fact that around that time, anything that was even kinda, sorta, remotely a tiny bit gay was considered to be super dooper extra bad with everyone avoiding it like the plague. Broadway Musicals were one of those things, to the point of Broadway almost being another term for gay.
