Nintendo's Free Super Mario Bros. Movie Guidebook Is Now Available In English

Eh...a lot of the ones they show were super obvious...lol

Damn, they had so many references they had to make a whole guide for it

@Joeynator3000 agreed

I loved the movie, definitely gonna check it out!

I need to know how in the world were Mario brothers adopted in the movie version (their real father had a cameo, he was voiced by Charles)

@Joeynator3000 Not a fan of Illumination. They don't make movies that warrant this kind of analysis. I didn't watch the Mario movie. So I was surprised to see this article. Then I saw your comment. And all is right with the world, again! 😄

is there a way to download it or do I need to screenshot everything?

I always think the best way to enjoy a film is to sit down with a guidebook and pause it every few seconds

@outsider83 give this kids movie a chance. Maybe this will be the first one you see where “the analysis is finally warranted”. Analysis isn’t the right word for you to use for the “reference manual”.

By the way……there are a chock full of references for any Mario fan to eat up. They honestly did a good job.

No physical copy?
Not a download?
Fail!
Pass!

I just got the REAL "Super Mario Brothers" movie on 4kUHD!
I had to import it from Australia.
It was the "Trust the Fungus" edition!
We watched it the other night.
I still absolutely love the movie!
My wife prefers it to the animated slop from Illumination!
As do I!

I definitely missed a few but there's a bit of irony the guides screenshot show some secrets the guide doesn't acknowledge.

Like all of the photo frames with Punch-out characters.

@Spider-Kev that movie is criminally under appreciated. Did it match the source material? Absolutely not, but it was fun and honestly very creative. The new movie wasn’t bad, but felt very by the numbers. The original 90’s movie took risks and wasn’t afraid to do its own thing. It took a game series that, especially for the time, really had so little story to adapt in the first place. It probably would’ve done better if it wasn’t a Super Mario Bros movie. Felt the same way with Final Fantasy The Spirits Within. I actually quite enjoyed the movie. Not the best representation of a Final Fantasy movie and performed horribly as a result but I enjoyed it

@Spider-Kev
I don't think it was Mario you watched.

I just want to be able to watch/download the 3D version of the frikin' movie and view it on my VR headset. When the hell will I be able to to this, Nintendo/Illumination!

It's weird to me that, of all the obvious easter eggs, they didn't mention the super mario brothers super show theme song? in a way this movie could almost be a reboot of the show, it pretty much follows the plotline...
