To celebrate Mario Day on March 10th (so they were a day early), Nintendo Direct posted the final trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, the sequel to the hit The Super Mario Brothers Movie and having nothing to with that live-action 90s movie that stole the names and nothing else. We ignore that movie around these parts, though I do understand why it developed its own cult following…which does not include the actors.
I still have yet to see the first movie, which is now supposedly free with ads on Fandango, so I really want to get a Finally Watched article out of it soon, before this sequel comes out. We’ll have to see what my schedule does. I had my own thoughts going in, including what I wanted to see, but they didn’t ask me. I still have some misgivings, not in the quality of the work because I have yet to hear a bad word from the fans, but versus what I wish they had done. The Nintendo Direct also includes some minor information about the movie, and is still a short video, just under eight minutes.
In addition to the trailer, each of the celebrity cast who aren’t the actual game voice actors because Hollywood get to tell you how excited they are because they got paid to. No, I don’t think they hated it. Jack Black just always comes off as exaggerating, and we’ll get to the rest after we see the trailer. So let’s see the trailer.
