@HexagonSun There is no such thing as a movie that’s just an Easter Egg hunt. It’s all about WORLDBUILDING and respecting things that are in the Mario games.
@Jireland92 It wasn’t “one big reference to Nintendo”, that’s called WORLD-BUILDING. References are not a bad thing, they are like sprinkles on the ice cream.
@NotASockPuppet And if they assume that most movies are mediocre and cant enjoy them easily, they have no right to complain about them because they might as well not see them or grow a heart and learn to enjoy them. I don’t believe in things being mediocre, just that people can’t have a fun time as easily these days or appreciate art. Films are and have always been art and always will be, no matter what the opinions people have on them.
@ROMhaiku And the reason they make all that money? It’s because people love those characters and those worlds and it makes them HAPPY, which these days is a big deal.
@NotASockPuppet And it’s also an insult to say that they should be picky and not enjoy things so easily. Can’t people just deserve to have a fun time and not be judgemental?
@X68000 No, in my opinion, even non-fans CAN appreciate it. You have to understand that people are smarter than you think, they catch on and learn new things quickly.
@CaptainQuo Films are NOT poor these days! There are still many amazing films being made. Anyone who says that many films today are bad clearly hasn’t seen them or is too jaded to understand.
@AstroTheGamosian What lack of proper story, I’m sure it DOES have one. And no, Nintendo is not giving up on movies. No matter what the critics say, they believe in the medium.
@X68000 I don’t understand the hatred people have for Illumination’s movies. The movies they make are meant to be fun, cartoony and entertaining. They are comfort movies.

@Game_n_Watch_it_pal It’s not targeted towards either kids or adults, but EVERYONE of ANY age.
Re: Movie Review: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie - A Faithful But Overstuffed Sequel
@Cia No they didn’t, in my opinion.
Re: Movie Review: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie - A Faithful But Overstuffed Sequel
@cedarhyped No, some people just like what they like and don’t judge anyone for liking it.

@N00BiSH Spite is definitely UNwarrented. Why do you like spite so much?

@icon182 And general audiences in general who are looking to have a fun time.
Re: Movie Review: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie - A Faithful But Overstuffed Sequel
@BLAZINOAH I agree with you on Rosalina, but I LOVED Seth Rogen’s portrayal of Donkey Kong.
Re: Movie Review: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie - A Faithful But Overstuffed Sequel
@LotusFlowers Bit what if it is good in someone’s opinion other than your own?
Re: Movie Review: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie - A Faithful But Overstuffed Sequel
@Anti-Matter I’m a huge Minions fan and I don’t understand why you people keep using them as a pejorative.
Re: Movie Review: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie - A Faithful But Overstuffed Sequel
@Maxz I disagree with you.
Re: Movie Review: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie - A Faithful But Overstuffed Sequel
@Zaruboggan What are “standards” anyway? Just a way of being more rigid and picky and not being more open-minded.
Re: Movie Review: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie - A Faithful But Overstuffed Sequel
@Waluigi451 No, it IS a film and not just an experience.
Re: Movie Review: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie - A Faithful But Overstuffed Sequel
@Narrator1 Whats your point? Are you going bak to that old stereotype that Miyamoto doesn’t like storytelling? That’s completely false.
Re: Movie Review: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie - A Faithful But Overstuffed Sequel
@Cheez @Cheez In this day and age, we NEED fun movies more than ever.
Re: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Is Already Breaking Box Office Records
@HotGoomba It’s not horrible at all.
Re: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Is Already Breaking Box Office Records
@BLK_4EVER It’s not mediocre at all in my opinion.
Re: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Is Already Breaking Box Office Records
@roboshort Please understand that you are very wrong. Nintendo DOES value filmmaking, it’s just that YOU don’t value the film’s worth.
Re: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Is Already Breaking Box Office Records
@roboshort Mario is all about creativity. It’s NOT random and IS coherent in my opinion.
Re: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Is Already Breaking Box Office Records
@Waluigi451 In my opinion, the films are always high quality no matter what IP you’re talking about.
Re: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Is Already Breaking Box Office Records
@ItsOKToBeOK I wholeheartedly agree.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
@PtM What are you implying? You can still go see it if you want to.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
@JimiVall On what exactly?
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
@Chocobo_Shepherd Define “Oscar bait” films? You know I don’t like negative connotations.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
@PtM Go see the movie anyway and make your own opinions.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
@Jireland92 I would say the same thing to you.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
@CRASH64 Anyone who uses those buzzwords I don’t take seriously.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
@Gingeroyboy125 No, it wasn’t made for EVERYONE of ANY age, lg just you get audiences. I absolutely love that movie.

@nessisonett I AM an adult, it’s just that I’m autistic and very defensive.

Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
@SuperDan64 Tell me about it.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
@X68000 There is so much more to their movies than fart jokes. So. Much. More.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
@Joriss Yes you will. I know I personally will.

Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
@BrewsterTea I’m a HUGE fan of Illumination and I highly disagree with all of the criticisms you keep saying about them.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
@MontyCircus It’s very insulting to call them that.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
@CaptainQuo You have to see more modern movies to understand that they have not at all been getting worse. They will always be great no matter what.
