But I mean, what will the story be about? How are they even gonna introduce the characters?
I can imagine how various video game movies could play out, just not Mario.
@alyx @Kagekokoro Zoom in from sky through clouds, a la Simpsons
See mushroom Kingdom
Hear 1-1 theme
Voiceover: Dis is da Mushroom Kingdom
Visual extravaganza while voiceover gives exposition
Voiceover: ...and dat is a Goomba, and...(Mario appears on screen doing Mario stuff) a hey! It's a me! Mario!
And then the movie begins and we enter Mario doing Mario shit. Koopa is a dick and he saves the princess, the end. Also environmentalism, equality, and feminism.
Or maybe they go full sonic and take the characters and make a different genre of movie out of it.
I personally liked the Sonic/Roadtrip combo they did, was entertaining and fresh in a way while maintaining the core of the character (for me at least)
