Mario Movie Actor Says Second Film Is "Very Exciting So Far"

The second movie will be talking about Yoshi and related stuffs with Yoshi according to the last scene after the credit roll from the first movie.

Looking forward to it. Hopefully all the people who were gnashing their teeth at the casting from the first movie have settled down a bit, after it turned out pretty darn good.

Besides Yoshi I wonder what they're going to do with villains...either Bowser Jr. or the Koopalings. (or both, lol)

Was also thinking they could even go the Smash route and have Bowser turn into Giga Bowser at some point. lol

I hope Mario Movie 2 really is broader in scope. For a sequel, it should only be natural. The original was like an origin story. Now they need to elaborate on the world’s lore while improving on the plot and pace for the next film.

When I think of “deep cuts” I think of Wart or Tatanga. Characters from spin-offs like the Mario RPGs would also count. “Old favorites” would be a large category, and there’s a lot of “old favorites” that they should try to bring to Mario Movie 2. Daisy, Rosalina, Wario, Waluigi, Bowser Jr. and the Koopalings would be my top picks.

Whatever happens I just hope the writing is better.

I would really love it if the movie turns out to be based on the old Super Mario Adventures comic. That one feels like an ideal sequel that can easily build upon all that has already been established. I'd prefer if a Galaxy movie came much later.

What about Wart? 🐸

honestly i want this to above all else have an interesting and well done story. First film had decent worldbuilding and a great opening hook but a majority of it was just kinda safe and sterile, like a modern-day Troll in Central Park. I hope this second movie leans more into the vibe the opening to the first one had and establishes a new villain, preferably the Wa brothers or the Koopalings.

@N00BiSH my kids love it and we watch it at least once a month, but the more I see it the more it bugs me how atrocious the writing is…

Is Chris Pratt gonna voice Chris Pratt again or Mario this time? Guy can’t range to save his life. My optimist side is that he learned after the first movie, but doubtful.

Jack Black meanwhile carried the voice casting because he was the one by far in the cast with actual voice acting experience in spades. Hell Jack can even sing and did so in the movie with great positive reception.

Jack Black in Mario carried as much as Jim Carrey did for the Sonic movies. Both as the main villain. Go figure.

Never saw the Mario movie. I’m sure the sequel will look as much like a Hollywood interpreted product as the first. Would prefer a Mario animation film made after a different film tradition.

I hope its as fun and exciting as the first! My boy loves watching it againand again, and so do I wahoooo

I wasnt the biggest fan of the first one, felt it was okay. Kinda felt generic, so similar in animation and comedy as many other films of that type, nothing made it fell special and as @N00BiSH seems to have suggested, the writing was rather bland. I hope the sequel gets injected with some magic and would love to see another big bad, a new one perhaps, bowser seems even less of a menace in film form.

I mean, what else would he say? "This one is rather boring, I wouldn‘t recommend watching it."? I have a feeling we would see a new Toad actor pretty soon 🤣

I've watched the first film twice in the cinema! Now let's-a see if they can make me do that again!

The first film was a huge commercial success because… it was actually pretty good and kids loved/ still love it. Surely they can’t do a similar princess, Bowser story this time so hopefully it’s a bit less safe/generic with some good twists. I’m really looking forward to it.

Bring it on.

The first movie has honestly grown to be one of my most loved movies of all time.

I can't wait for the next one.

Now, I'm not going to imagine I will enjoy it as much or that it will be as kinda perfect as the first movie, but that's all good.

I think it's going to be a very big hit.

Really hope we get Danny DeVito as Wario. He was literally made for that role.

@PinballBuzzbro Wario and Waluigi aren’t siblings. But yeah, I’d also love to see them in one of these movies.

I really liked the first movie but, the writing (even for a kids movie) was pretty poor in some places.
Still very much looking forward to what appears to be a very ambitious sequel!

Plum confirmed for Mario Bros Movie 2

@AStupidID Just put a live-action Danny Devito dressed as Wario right in there.

The first movie was a bit too overstimulating for my senses.

I am still in recovery.

Let's hope the writting isn't trash in the sequel.

I'm half expecting Bowser to introduce himself to the new villain by saying "I (pause) am Bowser!" while striking a pose.

@N00BiSH since the writing in the first one was great I do think it would be great if it were better. You’ve gotta remember this isn’t for us. It’s for the general public. And for them, the writing was great.

@Borderlineland don’t be weird

@fenlix writing wasn’t trash in the first one. Did you notice how much money it made?

The return of the Koopa Kids?? 🤔
