I mean, I found it on some...other places. coughyohocough
It's fine you can say you torrented it
Magnet links, surf shark or Trust.Zone if you don't mind slow torrent but both are cheap as all hell.
Tixati or Qbittorent. I used to love uTorrent until it turned to shit.
you mean like the torrent i linked?
dude you gotta get on the online pirate media streaming sites. Bflix, Sflix, Putlocker, soap2day etc etc etc. we've come a long way from the Limewire days. i used to have a whole Plex server and hundreds of files with subtitles, box art, descriptions, all hand curated over 100s of hours. Now i just use free pirate clearnet streaming sites
I got that old shit on dvd, best Mario
A friend of mine gave me the DVD as a joke. Joke's on him though, it's a fun film!

Sometimes it feels like I'm the only person who legitimately liked the first Super Mario Bros movie. I would regularly rewatch it when I would see it come on tv before I eventually recorded it so I could watch it whenever.
If you haven't, I'd recommend watching the Morton Jankel cut. It restores some cut scene segments and improves some of the pacing as well.
It’s not great, by any means, but it’s a guilty pleasure. You can laugh at it and, in rare moments, with it. The kind of movie drinking games are made around.
I've come to peace with the fact that I'll laugh way more watching a movie like this or "The Shark Side of the Moon" than any serious comedy. And I mean like belly laugh, not "lol" laugh.
There's a sort of delight in watching a scene that you just know someone said after the nth take "good enough, we'll fix it in post." And forgot that the post processing budget was a pack of beer.
I’m big on b movies and schlock, I keep passing shark side of the moon, but you have made me reconsider haha

First Mario movie is definitely worth a watch. Just don't be sober.
Best video game movie ever. And the fact that it was such a shitshow making it makes it even better. I'm in construction and every time I need to talk to a plumber I still say "King Koopa was right about you guys". And fucking Mojo Nixon was in it.

I loved it as a kid. Next time I see it will either be through beer goggles or nostalgia goggles, or both.

Hoskins and Leguizamo were apparently drunk from start to finish.
I watched it a few years ago, and it's bad, but nowhere near as bad as you'd think.
There's an interesting fan edit on the web with a bunch of deleted scenes added. I guess Disney came in at the last minute ( like literally a few days before shooting) and butchered the script to make it more kid friendly. The actors and director were understandably pissed and pushed back but Disney always wins. They ended up with all these gritty looking sets and a kind of goofy dialog that just didn't match.
It's a bummer because it seems like there were some really cool ideas in the original story.

Saw the 90s one in theaters as a kid and I loved it. It may have failed the box office and the critics, but it diddnt fail me!
This and Double Dragon
That one was terrible. You're not aiming for greatness when your big star is the almost mute liquid Terminator guy.
Street Fighter has to be the undisputed king of rubbish 90s videogame movies.

Interesting enough, the old Super Mario movie was the premise of the Some More News movie. It's a little out there and references past episodes of SMN, but when they start landing the references and comparisons, it blows your mind!
Wait there's a what?!
Oh yeah, it's a thing. I am on my phone or I'd find the link to it on the YouTube. One thing that has stuck with me from that movie is the comparison of old apocalyptical/grim future movies of the 80s and 90s and the fundamental way they differ from similar movies of the last 20 years or so.
I don't want to ruin it cause Cody and the team do an excellent job getting to that point, but it's a nice payoff!
To be honest, I love both films. Bob Hoskins was the perfect personification of Mario, IMHO. John Leguizamo, not so much, but I still enjoyed his portrayal of Luigi.

So avant garde and ahead of its time that we still haven't gotten to the point where it's actually good
ok, hear me out, watch the super mario movie, then the movie Pest, then Spawn. I bet you'll think the movie is good.
That is too much leguizamo for anyone to attempt in a single sitting. Know your limits!
The animated one was fine but completely forgettable. The old one I'd rewatch in the future.
The events of the new movie wouldnt really have changed if Mario wasnt in it at all.

And where's the comparison?
I turned off the new one when they got to the Rainbow Road, can’t say I enjoyed it up to that part but that’s when I felt it was an advertisement not a story

Can you guess which Mario movie was written for people with lead poisoning?
