Bumping this thread because it's coming out this coming week. From the sounds and reviews of it, seems like it will be Ready Player One but in Nintendo form! Member berries for all!

I'm not giving my hopes up yet. I'm still gonna see it just to be sure.

I would give the movie 10 out of 10 if Donkey Kong said "Dude Bananas LMAO."

I mean he still carries his obnoxious laugh in the movie, so here's hoping(?).

Oh christ, the Illumination pop culture schtick fears were corrrect.
Edit:
Wait a minute, where's Jack Black's number as Bowser? It was confirmed he has a song in the movie.

Round Up: The First Impressions Of The Super Mario Bros. Movie Are In
Mostly praise, but one lone voice implores people to exercise caution:ETA: I don't really like the constant "THE REFERENCES" thing going on. It's pretty corny. Like Easter Eggs are nice and all, but Easter Eggs do not a good movie make.
Heh, and the 4chan posts weren't even kidding with that Ke$ha being in the Mario movie. Meme magic is still real. But at least we get to hear the movie rendition of "Do The Mario."
Ftfy. It's Seth Rogen, not Seth Green, you autist. Remember that Seth is a very common name for Gen-X/millennials.

"Mamma Mia" being on the soundtrack is so cringe and obvious, but I'll let it pass--for now.

That is a tracklist. Wow.
While I do appreciate that the cartoons are getting the lip service they deserve after being ignored for so long, the DK Rap seems a bit...premature, considering that no other Kongs aside from Cranky seem to be making an appearance and it's pretty obvious they'll be doing a Donkey Kong movie at some point. I'll never complain about actually-relevant music appearing in adaptations, especially since Sonic has notably been missing it two movies in a row, but those licensed tracks are abysmal. Fucking Party Rock Anthem? Really?
Jump Up Superstar and Do the Mario I'm looking forward to, though. I hope they throw in a quick "In Memory of Lou Albano and Danny Wells" in the credits somewhere.

The rest of the Kong family's there, but I doubt they'll have any lines.

Oh shit! Nice. Yeah, seems unlikely they'll speak, though. Swanky makes his first appearance in ten million years and it's in the fucking Mario movie lmao.

pre-woke Kesha, Bonnie Tyler, and Abba? I don't know, bros, it could have been a lot worse.

Video game movies mostly eat ass, so I don't blame you. I'll watch it on Saturday to see the horror.
Van Damne Street Fighter, the first Paul WS' Mortal Kombat, the first Jolie Tomb Raider, the first Silent Hill, the first Hitman, Uwe Boll's Postal, the Angry Birds movie duology and the Sonic movie duology are the only good video game movies. Yes, almost every other video game movie is garbage.
I'm hoping the new Mario is good, but I'm also hoping it's garbage too.

Ehh, it depends. LMFAO was a product of the late-2000s/early-2010s and there has been a surge of zoomers (and mostly late-millennials) listening it more and more solely based on nostalgia.
Oh, and confession time, most of LMFAO's songs are guilty pleasure songs to me, mainly because of memes, mashups and YTPMVs.
