Random: Chris Pratt Shares Joke "First Look" At The Super Mario Movie

The ending is fantastic

Alright new theory boys, Peach is actually Mario's mom

I just love how angry ppl get over some guy playing a character in a movie.

He seems like he's probably having fun with the role and enjoying the fame (or infamy haha); hopefully that fun turns into a great performance.

@MH4 just a heads up, all those voices have been recorded for a while now. Animated movies take a long time to make and the animators create using the cast voices and even body language as inspiration/reference for what they're animating.

Here before some people spill their hate on this chad.
Rent free.

m a m a

Don't mind me, Here to injoy the comments before they go to hell.

Not gonna support the decision to cast a transphobic, and otherwise problematic actor to voice act one of - if not THE most iconic video game character on the silver screen.

Can't wait to see him in action! Love his roles!
Although, I'm more hyped for Jack Black however.
And I'm very interested seeing the Charles Martinet cameo!

@dux Ah, that's right; I should've written my first comment in past tense then! My point still stands though; he seems to have had fun with the role and hopefully that leads to a good performance.

Chris Pratt doesn't have to worry about his haters... He is a freaking awesome actor and person, and his beliefs don't have to hinder him from getting jobs, despite what people who have no business with him believe

Id rather he explain about why he supports an anti-gay church and follows a bunch of right wing nutjobs on all his socials.

@Doofenshmirtz And Toadsworth's heart broke when he put that tumor in her head.

@Irfann Man, such ego on that guy.

@Nego he's transphobic?

Hhahaha oke that one was funny

@Nego I don't know how he's otherwise problematic. He raises his own meat? I think that was the thing. He wore a t-shirt people didn't like once. I don't even know when he made a transphobic remark. I think he defended a transphobic church, which is different. And since I googled it he made apparently a transphobic joke to Jennifer Lawrence, but I'd didn't know it was transphobic when I heard it was really funny so dunno.

@Tsuchinoko Why does he need to explain? Is he supposed to only be a certain way because of his job? Who are any of us that he needs to explain anything?

Besides, do you know him personally to know what his views are? What does that have to do with being Mario?
Maybe.. .Chris Pratt isn't Italian enough to be Mario, and so it would be considered cultural appropriation? 😀

@Tamale I suggest, actually taking time, and form your own opinion on the matter, because everyone is just gonna say the same thing, with no real research.

@Guitar_bard Mario voice actor is french. (I'm pretty sure)

@Snatcher Maybe he didn't give the Internet their desired pound of flesh. Didn't use the proper phrases or accepted terminology.

@Snatcher haha, I was totally kidding. I don't believe any of that stuff. Maybe we should cancel Charles Martinet! He is not really Italian!
/s

Meh we'll see how he plays it, but of all the characters he's played so far none are what I would envision what Mario is. Between silly idiot, idiot savant, idiot outlaw, and army idiot I wouldn't say Mario fits in that mold.
Otherwise all the other casting choices are spot on and/or interesting in a out of the box way.

@PickledKong,

Same here, the guy seems fine and also comes across as a very genuine person in interviews etc, and of course the mass majority of people will have little to no issue with him.

Of course no matter how nice you are, if certain people looking for outrage find a link, no matter how tenuous, to a person or organization with some views they do not agree with, then said person is guilty by proxy, best to ignore those types of people.

@Tsuchinoko,

He has no requirement to explain anything, as as many have said a lot of these so called links are very tenuous in the first place. And as long as he personally does not share these views then there are no issues.

@Nego,

Don't support it then, simple.

And considering he is as you say a problematic actor, he seems to get an awful lot of roles in movies, perhaps the problem is more with you than him, stories like anything else in Hollywood get embellished, so the media can make far more out of things than there actually is, you know to sell newspapers/magazines and gain clicks on websites, nobody really knows what an actor thinks personally, or is like as a person in everyday life.

@dux He said they're still working on the voice in the video where he does a quick impression of Mario.

The ending had me hurting from trying to suppress my mad cackling help

@Nego ....huh?

No thanks i'll pass.. Not watching the new movie

It was hilarious lol.

Looking forward to Charli Day and JB. Haven't cared for Pratt after Parks and Rec.

Oh wait did i just read donkey will join also? Now i am even more hyped.

@Tsuchinoko as oppossed to left wing nutjobs?
People are allowed to follow whoever they want, this isn't an echo chamber, we can have different views on things and still coexist.

I’ll see it of course but what I’m REALLY looking forward to is Charlie as Luigi.

@Tsuchinoko “Our Culture has accepted two huge lies:
The first is that if you disagree with someone’s lifestyle, you must fear or hate them.
The second is that to love someone means you agree with everything they believe, say or do.
Both are NONSENSE.
You don’t have to compromise convictions to be compassionate.”
-Dave Chappelle, who's now made infamous by left wing nutjobs...

@Matroska that's not what he meant by it. He said "that's not the voice", as in "that's not the voice I did", meaning he's done it already. He has to, otherwise the movie wouldn't be coming out next year at all, animation takes a lot of time. He won't show the voice he did yet because marketing for the movie will decide the best moment to reveal it (a teaser trailer most likely)

That was pretty funny.

The comments are also full of funny people; imagine believing that everyone needs to have the same thoughts and beliefs as you in order to be allowed to exist in peace.

@UglyCasanova After? That was the first thing I ever saw him in.... So then you never liked him is what you're saying.

@Tsuchinoko There are lots of churches/mosques/synagogues that are anti-gay. I'd even bet MOST of them are. That doesn't mean the people in them are homophobes. I've yet to hear Chris Pratt say anything that could be construed as even remotely homophobic. We shouldn't rush to judge people. And I'm gay btw. Very, very, very gay.

Chris Pratt's church has some link with another church that has expressed anti-homosexual views. It appears to me, from a Google search, that Pratt, at least publicly, had said that he loves all types of people and believes his church to welcome all. As far as I am aware, Pratt did not write the bible. In my unprofessional judgement, this has no relationship with whether he can play an Italian plumber.

@Arkay
It is a free country not a rent free country

@Tsuchinoko
Better than following left wing nut jobs

Wow reading the comments this time around gave me some real hope, Good on you guys for staying civil, even if you didn't agree with each other, Damn yall are some fine folk.

@Snatcher,

Yes I feel we have made a little progress on this comment section, certainly compared the the comment section when the news was first announced.

@johnvboy 100%, Its much better then last time.

Pratt's gonna nail it. Even just his casual speaking voice would be a pleasant change of pace for Mario, I really couldn't listen to the video game voice talking for an hour and a half. If we're humanizing Mario then a good normal everyday guy voice with hints of conviction and bravery would be a great fit for Pratt, I'm even okay if they lighten up on the Italian accent or skip it altogether (speaking as an Italian, the common portrayal in media is a little outdated and obnoxious).

Left wing nutjob here who doesn’t agree with everything Chris Pratt says but am still gonna see the movie even if it sucks because I love Mario.

It’s Mario, people, we’re all gonna watch it and you know it.

@Snatcher That was excellent timing XD

@GannonBanned I’ll be skipping the movie, not for the actor choice, but because movie adaptations of games tend to be sub-par. Well, with the exception of the original Mario movie, that thing was so bad it’s good!

@BloodNinja I don’t know if I want to live in a world where my favorite ninja doesn’t like the OG Mortal Kombat movie

@GannonBanned Hahahah, okay I forgot about that. That one's another "so bad it's good," thanks for reminding me how old I am LOL

NINJA APPROVED

@Nego So he’s “transphobic” now? How did you come to that conclusion?

This is literally the best video I've ever seen.

Thank you whoever made this.

@Snatcher He’s American of French Descent

I’m ok with it… Not watching it but….ok

@mer764NL He speaks english, french, and Spanish, So if he can play mario, so can chris.

Also this a old article, so um.

@Snatcher 1. I know
