In the movie Luigi is Mario's adopted son. If you haven't you should really watch the Rifftrax for the movie.

Remember how the movie ended on a cliffhanger when Princess Daisy reappeared and told the Mario Bros she needed their help? Remember how the movie bombed so badly that the sequel they set up was never made? Well someone decided they couldn't live without that sequel so they made a Mario Bros 2 webcomic

i unironically enjoy this webcomic and wish it would update more

And Leguizamo as Waluigi? I could get behind that.

Unfortunately nowadays they'd probably cast Jonah Hill or Josh Gad as Mario and some random prettyboy from the CW as Luigi.

That is a really nice touch on Hopper's part that I didn't notice till recently myself.

Also, Yoshi is apparently a pretty drat advanced animatronic, like some of the Jurassic Park people showed up on set to check him out. Took like 8 people to pilot him from what I remember.

Yeah it was loving crazy:

This site has a whole bunch of other production photos:





There were dozens and dozens of highly skilled artisans working their butts off to bring this movie to the big screen and the directors were loving around making script changes up to and during filming and dicking around obsessing over tiny details (at one point one of the co-directors poured a cup of coffee over an extra because he thought her costume wasn't grungy enough) and arguing amongst themselves rather than concentrating on the big big picture.

Edit: the movie pretty much killed the directors' careers. Rocky Morton didn't direct anything else for another 11 years until he had a few straight-to-DVD things in the mid 2000s and then disappeared again. Annabel Jankel also didn't direct anything else for another 12 years and even then they were just a few TV and straight-to-DVD stuff (including one TV episode this year).

The writers didn't fare much better. Parker Bennett got a writing credit on an episode of the TV series Sweet Valley High 3 years later and then disappeared. Terry Runté died the year after SMB was released without having any further screen credits. Ed Solomon (who was called in to do a complete rewrite at one point and then fired and then brought back later to script doctor the resultant mess when they got a new script but went over budget and had to abandon large chunks of it) managed to escape pretty well unscathed. He was already well known for writing the Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure movies and later went on to write Men In Black, Charlie's Angels and Now You See Me and was working on the Spider-Man spinoff movie Venom (which is now in limbo after Sony struck their deal with Marvel).

I've seen all 3 parts and the third part does not contain the entire speech. The speech is like 5 minutes long in the movie and there's no way the uncut speech can be read aloud in under two hours.

The third movie is pretty hilariously low budget. It has all different actors from the previous two, and doesn't even meet the "Sy Fy original movie" standard of special effects/acting/directing/editing.

Because Atlas Shrugged would make a half-decent sci-fi movie if it could just shut the gently caress up about Ayn Rand's stupid fetishes for ten minutes. Sadly, if anything, it was worse than the books when it came to ham-fisted preaching.
After the first one it was pretty much a matter of wanting to see the train wreck (see what I did there) through to the end.
