Transcript
00:00Hello, procrastinator. Same here, and I literally just got back from the Mario movie only a couple minutes ago.
00:06And I'm here with my good old friend, garrulous64.
00:09I could not think of a better person to yap about this movie to than him, the Mario man himself.
00:16Dylan, how are you doing, my friend?
00:17Did you just call me old? Oh, old friend. No, no, I got it.
00:21Old friend, yeah, yeah, yeah. I would never do it.
00:23Dylan, I have gray hairs now.
00:24No, I got it.
00:25Anyways.
00:26Yeah, no, no, hi. Glad to be here. I love Mario.
00:28Mario. Yeah, and for this video, I feel like it's just going to be us mainly yapping, given our brief
00:36thoughts.
00:37There will be spoilers, so I'll just say real quick, if you haven't seen the movie yet, I recommend go
00:41out and see it.
00:42If you watch this channel, if you're into gaming, I say go see it.
00:47If you're a Mario fan, go see it. I recommend it.
00:49So, yeah, leave the video now because we're about to spoil it.
00:52Three, two, one. I cannot believe Princess Peach dies. That was crazy.
00:58I can't believe that her great-great-grandmother was actually Lola Bunny.
01:05You know, I was trying to find something really quick, and it didn't work out.
01:08It's all good.
01:09Maybe this is where we differ, but I feel like I don't have a lot to say about the movie
01:12in a weird way.
01:14And that's not to say I hate it. I had a really good time.
01:17I'll just say, again, I had a really good time with this movie.
01:20A lot of laughs.
01:21I was laughing a lot with the jokes that were in this movie.
01:25I do have some notes on my phone here.
01:28Just a few, not a lot.
01:29I will just say, going in, I saw the reviews from the critics, and that was like at, what, 35
01:37% or something like that?
01:38And I knew it's critics.
01:39After having now seen the movie, I now see where both sides land and why.
01:47Because if you're a fan, and you went to see this movie, and you understand the references, you played the
01:53games,
01:54and you get the world enough to where things don't need to be explained every second, this movie's for you.
02:00It is fast, fast, fast.
02:02It does not stop.
02:03It is honestly very unapologetically fast.
02:06And to some respects, I could respect it very different.
02:10It feels like sometimes studios are very hesitant to do that.
02:13But in some respects, I could say, this was, you know, it's fast.
02:16And I could see why critics who probably don't know and or give a shit about the game lore or
02:24music,
02:25its story and how things work and its quirks,
02:27why they would either feel lost or they would be pissed as to why this movie's not explaining anything.
02:36But you know what?
02:38Honestly, at the end of the day, if you're going to see this movie because you're a Mario fan,
02:43or you're a video game fan, or you're a pop culture fan,
02:47you're not going to see this movie if you're 70 years old, unless you're taking your grandkids to it.
02:51If you are doing that, shout out to you for being so nice and bringing your grandkids to this movie.
02:56But I mean, that's what I will say in regards to the reviews.
02:59Do you have anything to say about that, Dylan?
03:01Yeah, the reviews, I had like a couple people that I know start saying things like,
03:07oh, I saw the movie earlier today, this and this and this, no spoilers, but this, I didn't like this,
03:12this and whatever.
03:13And, you know, I went into it being like, okay, you know, I wasn't going into the first one expecting
03:20a masterpiece.
03:20And, you know, it wasn't, but I had fun.
03:24And then at the same time, I was like, you know what, I'm just going to keep my, my, uh...
03:29Because the way people were describing this was like it was a literal rollercoaster ride.
03:33And I didn't get that exact same feeling, at least not through most of it.
03:39Like, some of it was very fast, but I was expecting literal breakneck pace with the amount of stuff they
03:45showed off beforehand.
03:46But the reviews, honestly, I think I was like, all right, I'm just going to have no expectations.
03:51And I went in and I had fun.
03:53Not a good movie, not a great movie, but I liked it a lot.
03:57But, yeah, and, and, you know, and, you know, I'll say, like, when, as a Sonic fan, if I had
04:04to choose between a movie like this or Sonic Movie 1, I'd choose this, I'd choose this any day of
04:09the week over Sonic Movie 1.
04:10Sonic Movie 2 and 3, those are completely different beasts in terms of tone and their direction.
04:16But, like, I, again, this is, and I will say, too, and by the way, again, we could talk about
04:22spoilers at this point.
04:22There's no, we're already in the review part of this.
04:25But I will just say, the visuals are incredible.
04:31This movie is clearly showcasing that front and center.
04:36And Illumination is just cooking, absolutely cooking.
04:40And I do want to say, too, on the tone in regards to, like, the setting of this movie and
04:45what it's doing here with not just the, you know, the graphics
04:53and the, and the resolution of just how beautiful this world is, the music.
04:59I will say, as a Sonic fan, I'm jealous as hell that you guys get your songs in your movie
05:08and it's not an Easter egg.
05:10It's not like a, oh, stop breathing and stop chewing your popcorn.
05:13You gotta really listen to get the five-second reference.
05:16No, you guys get music in your movie and that's fantastic.
05:20I wish we had that.
05:21I want that.
05:23It is really nice.
05:25It is really nice.
05:26And it is, throughout the entire movie, it is always there.
05:29And you know what?
05:30Video game directors, it's not distracting either.
05:33It was nice.
05:34It put me in the immersion.
05:36It was, it was nice.
05:37You know?
05:38It was great.
05:39And also, a huge thing about that, too, is there really weren't any big needle drops in this either.
05:45Like, the first movie had a lot of times where they replaced songs off of the soundtrack they made with
05:50pop culture songs.
05:52Right.
05:53This movie had, like, one, I think.
05:55Like, at the very start, right, with Yoshi, I think it was a needle drop.
05:58Okay, I will say, dude, I will say, on the topic of that.
06:02I don't hate needle drops, but it was very, like, yeah.
06:06If you didn't like that the first time around, like, the music situation's better this time, for sure.
06:09It was a very funny scene.
06:11Yoshi, all together, is one of my favorites in the movie, but I will just say this right now.
06:16It was really good.
06:17I was not expecting a Sean Diddy home song, dude.
06:23I cannot believe it.
06:25I was like, dude, I can't listen to this song.
06:27Like, yes, the music's iconic.
06:29Yes, it's from the 90s, but I'm just, dude, it's rude for me now.
06:32I was like, what?
06:33Yoshi really is, he's one of the best parts.
06:36He was really good the whole time.
06:38Yeah, let me, let me get this out of the way.
06:39Right, my favorite characters in this movie, which this is probably where it might shock some people to learn this.
06:44My favorite characters in this movie are Yoshi, Bowser, Bowser Jr., and Fox.
06:53Those are my favorite characters in this whole movie.
06:54Fox is my favorite Mario character.
06:56Yeah, but that's the part that's so funny.
07:00I'm gonna, I'm just gonna rip the band-aid off, and you know, there's way more I have to say.
07:04I have way more notes, but I'm gonna, on the topic of this, I need to, I just need to
07:08say this.
07:10Mario does, like, nothing for, like, 90% of this movie.
07:16I, it's not until I, I want to say the very end, where it feels like Mario's not really the
07:22focus.
07:24He's not the main character.
07:25He's just traveling for a majority of the movie.
07:27He's traveling to catch up with Peach for a majority of it, and it's just, like, hijinks ensue.
07:32Peach is the main character.
07:33She's the main character in this movie.
07:35She's been the main character, but she is the main character.
07:37Yeah, honestly, though, that's kind of, I, I did actually say that to someone today, because, uh, you know, someone
07:43did say, hey, Mario's not really doing a whole lot in this movie.
07:47Not really.
07:48And that's interesting, because in the first movie, it was very much about him discovering where he wants to be
07:54and where he ends up, and, you know, he ends up in the Mushroom Kingdom.
07:57And then this movie, they sort of, like, harken back to the thing about Peach not knowing where she's from.
08:02And then, you know, before I realized it, this is, this was not a Super Mario Bros. movie.
08:06This was, this was a Princess Peach movie, primarily.
08:10It was, and it, it was just, like, the, the, the whole thing about her, like, leaving and, and Luigi
08:16and Mario staying back to look over the, the, the, the kingdom.
08:19Yeah, it wasn't my favorite idea of hers.
08:22Like, even when I saw that, I was like, okay, that's a bit different.
08:25But then we stayed there, and we stayed there.
08:28And I'm like, oh my god, they really, they really are the ones that have to stay back while Peach
08:34is there.
08:34And you know what?
08:35It's weird.
08:36I guess it's, you know, I guess it depends on the tone of the, of the universe, right?
08:41You know, maybe they don't want there to be, like, one main part.
08:45They want you to get entranced in the world, multiple characters.
08:47And in that respect, I guess I could respect it.
08:49It's different.
08:50It's definitely different from what we're used to.
08:52But it was nice.
08:54And again, in the topic of just jumping all over the place, I'll say another note I have here was
09:00the first two-thirds of this movie.
09:04It's weird for me to say that, because it feels like it really was the whole movie, but mainly the
09:07first two-thirds, I'll say three-fourths of this movie, is reference city.
09:13It is reference after reference after reference.
09:17And in my eyes, in some weird way, and I don't say this as necessarily a bad thing, as again,
09:22I'm a fan, so I'm going to like this stuff.
09:24If you're not a fan, I can see why you were just like, what's the point of all this eye
09:27candy?
09:28As a fan, I liked it, but I will say this.
09:32It feels like they were not confident they were going to have another Mario movie after this one.
09:41So they decided to reference quite literally every single Mario game to ever exist, including Mario Maker!
09:51They referenced Mario Maker!
09:54That's one of my favorite references in the whole thing, because as soon as I saw...
09:58Bowser Jr. sit down and go, check this out, Dad!
10:01I literally, I was like, is he going to start putting down, like, a million bullet bill cannons in, like,
10:06a ton of whoops?
10:07But also, the line he said was so peak, where he was like, I'm going to be your maker.
10:13And I'm like, ah, I get it!
10:14Time to meet your maker!
10:15And I was like, yes, yes!
10:17There was a few things that were so clever, like how it switched between Mario and Peach in the level,
10:24and then them on the screen in his 8-bit sprites from Mario Maker,
10:27I just, I fucking loved that.
10:29It was really cute, just how it was working.
10:31It felt like a sprite animation from, like, a long time ago or something.
10:34It really did, and one of the funniest moments in the movie is when they lost,
10:38and it was just him and Bowser just gasped at the screen.
10:41That was very funny.
10:42Again, Bowser Jr. and Bowser are some of my favorites in the whole movie.
10:48I wish they had even more.
10:49They were great.
10:50Listen, I keep telling you, I need you to play the Mario RPGs more.
10:54You already played Paper Mario.
10:55I know, I do too.
10:56You know Bowser's awesome.
10:57There's so many more games where he's just the best character.
11:00He's like the best character in every game that he speaks in.
11:03But, like, I did want to say, about what you were saying, like,
11:06oh, I didn't know if they were going to get another movie after this.
11:09Because I'm pretty confident at this point that they are just setting up
11:15a Nintendo cinematic universe, because the only reason Fox would be in the movie,
11:21and my thought was, oh, Fox and other Nintendo characters exist in this universe
11:27because Nintendo wills it to be so.
11:29Like, the galaxies are very big or whatever.
11:31But the fact that, like, explicitly they say,
11:34yeah, I got sent through a freaking wormhole,
11:38and I ended up here in a different universe, and I'm stuck here.
11:41I was like, okay.
11:42All right, so we're setting up Smash Brothers.
11:45And my theory, my thought, I think it's going to be,
11:49I don't think it's going to be,
11:51I don't think Link is going to be involved because he's in a live-action movie.
11:55I think that's going to be separate.
11:57But I think we're going to get Mario, Fox, and Kirby at least.
12:02And probably Donkey Kong as, like, a little, like, Super Smash Brothers movie
12:08because there's no way they do the original 12 fighters.
12:11There's no way we have 12 full characters in that movie.
12:13I, dude, I, so going in, I will say, going into this movie,
12:17because they revealed Fox, and when they revealed it, I was, like, bummed.
12:21I'm like, why?
12:21They shouldn't have.
12:21I was like, why did they do that?
12:23You know what I mean?
12:23They really shouldn't have.
12:24His reveal in the movie was, like, set up like, who is it?
12:27But it's like, you gave it away.
12:28I'm sorry, not even, I just, you were talking about the music earlier.
12:32Not even are they unapologetically, like, here's just an entire soundtrack
12:35of Mario music.
12:36Right.
12:37Here's some fucking Star Fox arrangements.
12:39Star Fox music.
12:40Because who the fuck cares, right?
12:42What's happening?
12:43I jumped out of my seat when I heard the Star Fox remakes.
12:45It sounded so good.
12:47But, like, I was, yeah, it would have been so much better
12:50if they did not reveal Fox.
12:52It would, like, seriously, I would have been like, oh my God, you know?
12:55It would have been so much better, like, two points higher
12:57if they didn't do that.
12:57But going into this movie, because I knew Fox was in the movie,
13:01because they revealed it, I was like, oh my God,
13:04there must be setting up a Mario universe.
13:06These after credits, I'm probably going to see Kirby.
13:08I'm probably going to see Samus.
13:10I'm probably going to see Samus.
13:10Oh, these after credits suck.
13:12It sucks.
13:13We're going to get there.
13:14We're going to get there.
13:15I wanted to talk about the after credits.
13:18But I was just like, it felt like the same way the first movie did.
13:22I'm like, you guys, I don't think you guys quite understand
13:25the point of after credits the way you should.
13:27You know what?
13:27It's so funny about after credits, though,
13:29because the first time they were like, he's in Yoshi,
13:31and they were like, everyone was like, wow,
13:33they're going to do a Super Mario World movie?
13:36It's like, no, they did the Super Mario movie.
13:39It is everything.
13:41It's everything.
13:41So, like, the fact that it's just, like, Daisy.
13:43Technically, you did get Yoshi's Island for two minutes.
13:46You did get Yoshi's Island,
13:47because they referenced everything in this movie.
13:49Can I say, by the way, too, I have that on my notepad.
13:51In that scene, I know we're jumping all over the place.
13:53This is how it was going to be, though.
13:56When they turned into babies in that section,
14:00that was when, very adorable scene, I was laughing.
14:04I was like, oh, my God, Yoshi's Island reference.
14:05This is, you know, this is great.
14:07And Odyssey with the dinosaur and all this stuff, right?
14:10I will say this.
14:13This is where I realized where the critics stood
14:19and why they stood where they did
14:21and why I think in some regards they're valid
14:23in regards to the story aspect of this movie.
14:26Not necessarily the pacing, but the story.
14:29Because they mentioned their frustration is, like,
14:31they're not trying to develop anything meaningful.
14:34Like, these scenes don't have time to settle.
14:36They don't have time to build this universe.
14:38Like, for newcomers, it's go, go, go, go, go.
14:41Eye candy, eye candy, ADHD, ADHD, that type of style.
14:44They mentioned, like, TikTok editing, right?
14:47I will say this.
14:48Yeah, it's basically like in Sonic games when,
14:50you know, like in Sonic Adventure,
14:52when the whale starts running after, running,
14:54the whale's running.
14:54You know, the whale starts swimming after you.
14:56And you're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
14:59And then it ends.
15:00Right.
15:00That's this movie, except it's just the whale
15:03over and over again.
15:05Right.
15:05It doesn't stop ever.
15:06Like, there are very brief moments where it stops,
15:09but it's for reasons that lead to more whales.
15:11And it wasn't until that moment, though,
15:14where I realized, oh, like, not only do I understand
15:18where the critics are coming from,
15:18but I think they are valid in some respects to the story
15:20because Mario and Luigi was turned into babies, right?
15:26Peach and Fox saw that happen, all right?
15:29They go, they separate because Toad went to go find them.
15:34During their scuffle with the dinosaur,
15:38they get turned back into adults.
15:40They walk back into the camp.
15:44Peach or Fox, nobody questions it.
15:48No one questions how they're back.
15:49Like, I was just like, in that moment when I realized,
15:53like, when there was absolutely no acknowledgement of that,
15:55I was like, I kind of get where,
15:59how these movies differ from something like,
16:01say, the Sonic movies.
16:02Because in the Sonic movies, they would explain it.
16:05Even if it would be a dumb explanation,
16:07they would just half-heartedly, like, mention what just happened
16:11and why or whatever, right?
16:12Or half-heartedly.
16:14But this movie is so focused on going,
16:17it's like you can see where it's like,
16:20as an outsider, if none of these eye candy scenes
16:24are appealing to you,
16:25I could see why this is, like, pissing you off.
16:31It is like a non-movie.
16:33It's got, like we were saying,
16:35it's just set piece after set piece.
16:37And the funny thing about the baby thing,
16:40it's so out of nowhere, too.
16:43Like, in all the trailers,
16:44when they showed the babies,
16:46I was like, huh, there's another flashback?
16:48But why is Yoshi there?
16:50Has he met them before?
16:52And he just, you know,
16:53he just didn't know?
16:54Because they were born,
16:56but it was like they weren't born
16:57in the Mushroom Kingdom this time.
16:59Right.
17:00And then the way that, like,
17:00just being a gun that turns you into a baby
17:03is both really funny
17:05and also really fucking stupid.
17:08It's so goofy.
17:09But it's one of those things, though, too,
17:11where it's like all these set pieces,
17:14they're good.
17:16And I love them.
17:17I think the frustration that some might have
17:20about this and the pacing is
17:23it feels like
17:25there's no better way for me to say this.
17:27And I'm sorry for how crude this sounds.
17:29It sounds like they're shooting,
17:30they're shooting their load
17:32a little too soon
17:33on all of these.
17:34Because it's like,
17:35I, I, you know,
17:38I would like that whole aspect
17:40with Yoshi and the babies
17:41was hilarious.
17:42In Toad, it was hilarious.
17:44I wouldn't mind a whole separate side series
17:47that was just that.
17:48I wouldn't mind a whole separate movie
17:53with Mort, you know,
17:54the Mario 2 cast with Birdo.
17:58But, like, seeing it...
17:59It's Mort with a W.
18:00Or Wart, my bad.
18:01Sorry.
18:02I was like, who the hell is Mort?
18:03What are you talking about?
18:04Sorry, I've only played...
18:05Funny enough, Mario 2
18:07was the first Mario game
18:08I actually played, actually,
18:09on the Game Boy.
18:10Funny enough.
18:11But, yeah, Wart, sorry.
18:12That's a good one.
18:13No, it's okay.
18:15That's, I guess, you know what?
18:16Maybe it's a good time as ever
18:18to talk about
18:19just all of the characters
18:20that are in this movie
18:21that's shoved in here.
18:23And, uh...
18:24I guess I could relate it slightly
18:27to the Sonic movies now.
18:28Some people are like,
18:29oh, if you throw in
18:30all the characters at once,
18:31it's gonna be a...
18:32a shit show...
18:33Sorry, it's gonna be a wreck.
18:35And, uh, you know,
18:36I...
18:37On one hand,
18:38it's like,
18:39if you put three characters
18:40into this new movie,
18:42it's probably...
18:42It's gonna be a little tough,
18:43I guess,
18:43if you keep bringing
18:44every single one back.
18:46Sure, it'll be tough.
18:47The Mario movie says,
18:48I don't care about that
18:49because none of them
18:50are going to be
18:51full characters anyway.
18:52So, like,
18:53we have things like...
18:55I don't even...
18:56I'm so confused
18:57about so much of it
18:58because I completely forgot
19:00we were on the Getaway Galaxy
19:01or, sorry,
19:01the, uh,
19:02the Gateway Galaxy
19:03because they go through
19:05the Gateway Galaxy,
19:06they get there,
19:07they go through a wall
19:09in the Gateway Galaxy,
19:10which is,
19:11they didn't use
19:11the Mario 64 sound effect,
19:13which, like,
19:13what are we even doing?
19:15That's a good thing.
19:16Should've been a picture frame.
19:18It should've been a picture frame.
19:19Either that,
19:20or it could've been
19:21a picture frame of a casino,
19:22or it could've been...
19:25Yeah, you know what?
19:25It could've been, like,
19:26the big hawk mouth thing.
19:27They could've gone
19:28through that or something.
19:30But, uh,
19:31once they get in there,
19:32like, I loved all the character
19:34cameos, of course.
19:35I did not think
19:38ever
19:39that I would see
19:39Wart, Mouser,
19:41Birdo, and Clawgrip
19:44on a movie screen.
19:45I couldn't believe it.
19:46I couldn't believe it.
19:47They didn't add Fry Guy,
19:49which is ridiculous.
19:51He was the only one missing.
19:52Uh, but, like,
19:53the whole thing about this thing is
19:55these characters,
19:56like, even Wart,
19:57who has a speaking role,
19:59gets his...
20:00He gets beaten up,
20:01which is great.
20:02And one person
20:03I was talking to
20:03was like...
20:04I mean,
20:05I've heard a lot of people
20:05say things about, like,
20:06the girl, Boss Peach,
20:07and how she's...
20:08He's just doing everything.
20:09She's accomplishing
20:10everything on her own.
20:12Uh, I think it makes
20:13a lot of sense,
20:14especially in this case,
20:15because these are all
20:16Super Mario Bros. 2 characters
20:18and bosses,
20:18which she canonically
20:20can beat up on her own.
20:22Yeah.
20:22And she has.
20:23Yeah, like,
20:24they were pretty much
20:25the most prevalent
20:25side characters
20:26aside from Toads,
20:27and really,
20:28Wart and those guys
20:28didn't have that much
20:30going on anyway.
20:31They really were just like,
20:32hey, there's stuff
20:33happening.
20:34Right.
20:35And a lot of those
20:35side characters
20:36were like,
20:36Birdo, like,
20:37the scene from the trailer
20:39where Birdo was shooting
20:40the eggs at,
20:42at Princess Peach,
20:44that's like,
20:45all of, like,
20:46that's it for Birdo,
20:47I think, in the movie.
20:47Like, she's barely,
20:49like,
20:49I think that's really it.
20:50She's barely, uh,
20:51you know,
20:51what you saw in the trailer
20:52is what, yeah,
20:53what you saw in the trailer
20:54is what you see in the movie,
20:55but it's like,
20:55there's not much more
20:56outside of that.
20:58Yeah.
20:59Mouser and Claw Grip
21:00aren't voiced either.
21:01Like, only Wart
21:02is voiced in that casino
21:03and, uh,
21:04you, uh,
21:04Ukiki,
21:05the little monkey.
21:07Yeah, oh my god,
21:08that monkey.
21:08That made me laugh so hard
21:09because he actually got me.
21:11He got me,
21:12that damn little monkey.
21:13Dude, like,
21:14in the gateway
21:15when he was like,
21:16oh, I'm lost,
21:17I can't find my friend.
21:18Please,
21:18I'm just a little monkey,
21:19right?
21:20And Toad's like,
21:21oh, little monkey.
21:22And steals my stuff
21:24and I was like,
21:25are you kidding?
21:26Like, I had immediately,
21:27like,
21:27I heard a vine boom
21:28in my head.
21:29Like, I was like,
21:31I would have fallen
21:32for it too.
21:33Like, damn, dude.
21:34Yeah, I love how pissed
21:35Toad was about
21:36just getting his bag back.
21:37He was like,
21:38so like,
21:38give me my bag back,
21:39you son of a bitch.
21:40It was really funny.
21:42It's the only thing
21:42that identifies him
21:43between other two.
21:45And now,
21:45it is funny though,
21:46speaking of side characters,
21:48it is interesting.
21:50I think the thing
21:51that confuses me
21:52about this movie
21:53maybe the most
21:55is the fact
21:56that it's called
21:57Galaxy.
21:57Because it really
21:58is a celebration
21:59of all of Mario.
22:01Yes,
22:01there is prominent
22:02galaxy parts
22:03in this movie,
22:04but there's
22:05a lot,
22:06there's a lot,
22:07Fox is in this movie
22:08more than Rosalina.
22:10More, yeah.
22:11That's the big elephant,
22:12the big fox in the room
22:13is that Rosalina
22:15is sidelined
22:16harder than
22:16Luigi sidelined
22:17last time.
22:18It's just so,
22:19it's so,
22:20it's so funny.
22:22It's just like,
22:22it's like if,
22:23it's like if we have
22:24like Sonic Movie 4
22:25and Cosima Kiryu
22:28is in that movie
22:29over Metal Sonic.
22:30It's like,
22:31what?
22:32That would be
22:33Sega,
22:33please do that.
22:34Please hire someone
22:35to play Kiryu.
22:36Dude,
22:36actually,
22:37I wanted to talk
22:37about Rosalina
22:38specifically because
22:39the trailers
22:40made her out to be
22:41such a massive part
22:42of this movie.
22:43Right.
22:44And,
22:45it's,
22:46I have so much
22:46to say about that.
22:47I know we were
22:47almost getting into it
22:48right before this,
22:49but like,
22:51there's so much
22:52about Rosalina
22:53that makes sense
22:55as to why they did that.
22:57Right.
22:57It's because of that
22:58scene where she
22:59destroys Megaleg
23:00or she,
23:00you know,
23:01tries to.
23:02Yeah.
23:02She is
23:04stupidly overpowered
23:05compared to everyone
23:06else in this movie.
23:07Like even Bowser,
23:08I would say.
23:09And,
23:11if she was just
23:11on the main cast
23:13running around with them
23:14trying to stop Bowser,
23:15they would have to
23:15nerf her another way.
23:17Yeah.
23:18And,
23:19I think that's why
23:20she was sort of
23:21held as a power source
23:23the whole time
23:23because if she wasn't,
23:24like you saw she broke
23:26out of that pod once
23:27and it was almost
23:28over already.
23:29Like she was like
23:30throwing hands
23:31immediately.
23:32Um.
23:33Yeah.
23:34She like destroyed it
23:35immediately.
23:35She was,
23:36she's,
23:36she's OP.
23:37I did it.
23:38Like I get why they did it.
23:39It does stink
23:40because I think she could
23:41have had a lot more
23:41going on.
23:42And I assume she'll have
23:43a bigger part in the next
23:44movie or whatever.
23:45But I,
23:45I think it's one of those
23:47things where,
23:48um,
23:50this movie was doing
23:51so much,
23:52so many different things.
23:53So it was just like
23:54the power scaling of like
23:56a lot of the galaxy,
23:57you know,
23:57especially with Rosalina
23:58and when you think of
23:59like Bowser,
24:00Bowser,
24:01Bowser in,
24:02in galaxy two,
24:03like he was like,
24:05if you remind me,
24:05if you remind me correctly,
24:07didn't he like destroy
24:08like a universe or
24:09something like that?
24:10Like,
24:10so it's just like,
24:11uh,
24:11in the first game,
24:12he Bowser's reactor,
24:14he causes a black hole
24:16or like a supernova
24:17black hole to appear.
24:18And then Rosalina has
24:19to basically reboot
24:20the whole universe.
24:21Yeah.
24:22So like,
24:22it's just like,
24:24you know,
24:24so it's,
24:25it's so interesting
24:26how Rosalina seems
24:28to be just as powerful
24:29she is in the game.
24:31Like she's just OP
24:32out of the gate,
24:33but they just had to
24:34lock her up immediately.
24:35So this movie could happen.
24:37Yeah.
24:37I guess it's also
24:38really realistic
24:39of the way they do it too,
24:40because she is kicking ass
24:42immediately.
24:43Like she's dominating
24:44Mega Leg.
24:44There's no chance
24:45he's going to win.
24:46And,
24:47uh,
24:47the thing that stops her
24:48obviously is Bowser Jr.
24:50aiming at the Lumas,
24:51which is ridiculous.
24:53Like what a little creep.
24:55So,
24:55that made perfect sense
24:57to me as a narrative thing
24:59as to why she got caught.
25:00She had to really,
25:01like,
25:02lose focus on the threat
25:03and trying to protect
25:04the children.
25:05Right.
25:06Um,
25:06but as a whole,
25:07Rosalina was so interesting
25:08to me,
25:09because at the very start
25:10when we start with
25:11the storybook
25:12and she's got a book
25:14about Peach,
25:15the movie hasn't happened yet,
25:16or I didn't think it happened.
25:17I was like,
25:17oh,
25:18maybe this is like a,
25:18like an after the movie.
25:20I'm going to tell you a story
25:21about how we saved the world.
25:23But it turns out to be,
25:26oh,
25:26I have this book
25:27about Princess Peach,
25:28but we don't tell you why.
25:30We don't,
25:30we don't tell you why.
25:31And then,
25:32I was like,
25:33are they setting up
25:34actual things
25:35that I'm,
25:36like,
25:36that I want to think
25:37about in this movie?
25:39And they,
25:39they did.
25:40They did.
25:40They set up a mystery
25:42and they actually had,
25:43like,
25:44little threads to it.
25:45I liked that.
25:46It does feel like
25:46there's moments in this movie
25:47where I could see
25:48where a rewrite has happened.
25:50Like,
25:50I feel like originally
25:51this was going to be
25:52a galaxy movie
25:53through and through
25:54without any other,
25:56like,
25:57it was going to be
25:57a galaxy movie
25:58starting with the story,
26:00going,
26:00like,
26:00playing out that way,
26:01like,
26:01telling a story
26:02from Rosalina's perspective.
26:05Um,
26:06then something changed
26:07along the production
26:08because,
26:09yeah,
26:09it's like,
26:09immediately,
26:10it changes from there.
26:11And that is something
26:12I do want to go into,
26:13uh,
26:14because I know
26:14it's fresh on our minds
26:15and that is something
26:16I'm dying to talk about.
26:17Um,
26:19confirming that Rosalina
26:21is Peach's sister.
26:23Um,
26:24yeah,
26:25yeah,
26:25I was shocked.
26:26I didn't think
26:27we would ever see
26:27something like that
26:28in a movie like that.
26:29That was a fan theory,
26:30correct?
26:30That was never confirmed
26:32in any capacity
26:33whatsoever,
26:34right?
26:35So,
26:35there's never been
26:36any confirmation,
26:37but all of her
26:38concept art
26:39is still very Peach-like.
26:42There is,
26:42obviously,
26:43she still looks Peach-like.
26:44Like,
26:45even as a kid,
26:45I was like,
26:46are they related somehow?
26:48But Nintendo doesn't
26:49do a lot of story.
26:51But in Rosalina's storybook,
26:53if we think about Galaxy
26:54back,
26:55back up,
26:55way back,
26:56which they had to hide,
26:57apparently,
26:58from Miyamoto.
26:59I heard.
26:59They had to hide that
27:00in the game.
27:00I remember that story.
27:01Yep.
27:02Which is probably why
27:03we don't have any story
27:04in the movies
27:04because Miyamoto's
27:05working on them.
27:06But,
27:06uh,
27:07so,
27:08the thing about the storybook
27:09is Rosalina
27:10leaves the Earth
27:11as a young girl
27:13thanks to the Lumas.
27:14She gets stranded
27:15in space
27:15and by the time
27:17she gets back to Earth
27:18after traveling
27:19throughout the cosmos
27:20with the Lumas,
27:22the Earth
27:22isn't the same anymore.
27:24It's like a new cycle,
27:25almost,
27:26like a new thing.
27:28And the things
27:29that Rosalina says
27:30in this book
27:31or the things
27:31that are recorded
27:32in this book
27:32about Rosalina's parents
27:33are very,
27:35like,
27:35I think they were
27:35very specific traits
27:36that,
27:37like,
27:37they could have been
27:38alluded to Peach
27:39or they could have been
27:39alluded to Mario
27:41or something.
27:41So the theory
27:42for a bit was
27:43that she was
27:44the daughter
27:45of Mario and Peach
27:47and Game Theory
27:48said it was
27:49Luigi and Peach
27:50because of certain things.
27:52But, like,
27:52I obviously think
27:53it was Mario and Peach
27:56and she,
27:57you know,
27:58outlived that cycle
27:59of the universe
27:59and now she doesn't
28:00belong anywhere,
28:01yada, yada, yada.
28:02So,
28:03having this be
28:04the connection
28:06between her and Peach
28:07and actually having
28:08Miyamoto being the one
28:09to be working on it
28:09and stuff
28:10is actually so cool
28:11because it really does
28:13give a connection
28:14to all of this stuff
28:17from such a long time
28:18and it does explain
28:19why Rosalina,
28:21not that you feel silly
28:23saying this,
28:23it explains why Rosalina
28:24sticks around,
28:26you know,
28:26like,
28:26instead of doing
28:27her own thing.
28:28Right,
28:28and it is also,
28:29but it is interesting
28:31that this is something
28:32the movie touched upon
28:33out of everything.
28:34You know what I mean?
28:35Like,
28:35it's like,
28:36we,
28:36because we're talking
28:37about,
28:38maybe I'm wrong
28:39on this,
28:40but from my knowledge
28:41when it comes to Mario
28:42is there's not a lot
28:44of story in a lot
28:44of these games,
28:45but the one that had
28:46the most story
28:46is Galaxy
28:47and the whole story
28:49with the whole diary
28:50and all that stuff
28:51is probably,
28:52that's like the equivalent
28:52of like our Gerald's
28:54Journal,
28:54you know what I mean?
28:55It's very lore heavy
28:57types,
28:58not necessarily lore heavy,
28:58but like very interesting
29:00lore stuff regarding
29:01that her character
29:02and like you mentioned
29:03before,
29:03the story of the game
29:04where it had to be
29:05like snuck into the game,
29:07couldn't tell Miyamoto
29:08because he would have
29:08probably axed it
29:09because it's not a story guy,
29:11but the fact that like
29:13this movie glosses over
29:16a lot of stuff
29:18in the Mario universe,
29:20but it goes straight
29:21to the core,
29:22it goes straight to that,
29:23something that is very like,
29:25I would probably say niche,
29:26a very niche tidbit,
29:30but to get that confirmation,
29:32I guess through a movie,
29:34cool,
29:34you know,
29:35interesting,
29:36it's like,
29:36because in the games,
29:37obviously she doesn't need
29:38an origin story
29:39and neither does Mario
29:40and neither does Luigi
29:41or Bowser,
29:41like we don't need
29:42to see where they started
29:44for most of these games
29:45to make sense,
29:47but just thinking about
29:49that in retrospect,
29:50like there's so many things
29:51I can point to
29:51and think of now
29:53that I'm like,
29:53oh,
29:54well,
29:55no shit,
29:56Peach is a space god
29:57or whatever,
29:58she can float
29:59just by holding
30:00like her arms in the air
30:01and she can,
30:02like,
30:03she has magic powers
30:05in some games
30:06just inexplicably,
30:08she could,
30:08this is stupid,
30:10but in the,
30:10you know,
30:10Super Princess Peach,
30:12she was the only one
30:13that could actually control
30:14the main thing of that game,
30:16like the emotion power-up,
30:17like she was the only one
30:18out of everyone
30:20in that entire game
30:21that could actually control
30:22her powers,
30:25it's so fun
30:26to just get something
30:27weird like that
30:28because the Sonic movies
30:29are different,
30:30right,
30:30like they're not
30:31the same continuity,
30:32like nothing they confirm
30:33in their,
30:34like it could be fun
30:35little headcanon stuff,
30:36like,
30:36you know,
30:37Maria teaching Shadow
30:38to skate,
30:38I was like,
30:38that's,
30:39you know,
30:39the cutest thing
30:40I've ever seen,
30:41that's actually a great
30:42reason as to why
30:43he would skate
30:43and use airshoes,
30:45but,
30:46you know,
30:46ultimately that's like,
30:47oh,
30:48that's a cool idea,
30:49like it's a fun little thing,
30:50we're not saying like,
30:51this is explicitly canon
30:53now 100% in concrete,
30:55but the fact that
30:56Nintendo and Miyamoto
30:57are working on this
30:58side by side with them,
31:00like that's a thing
31:01that they had to approve.
31:03Very interesting tidbit,
31:05I think that is kind of
31:06like the core surprise
31:07of this movie,
31:07like that was like
31:08kind of the thing.
31:09Yeah,
31:10it's really nice.
31:11It was cool to see,
31:12again,
31:13very,
31:13very brief with,
31:14I guess,
31:15you know,
31:16Rosalina,
31:16just like she's kind of
31:17in the beginning,
31:18she's there in the end,
31:20and it was,
31:21it was cool,
31:22the ending of this movie
31:23is fantastic,
31:25it hits on a lot of cylinders,
31:27great comedy,
31:28the big Bowser,
31:31Bowser and Bowser Jr.,
31:33Bowser has bones.
31:34You know,
31:35I really wasn't expecting them
31:37to burn Bowser's skin off
31:39in this movie.
31:40Yeah,
31:40I was not expecting that.
31:42When he fell in the lava,
31:43dude,
31:44and Bowser Jr.
31:44was looking over the edge,
31:46and like that was actually,
31:47I felt a little bad about that,
31:49because the whole,
31:49the subplot with Bowser
31:53actually,
31:55like coming to like
31:56Luigi and Mario a bit
31:58before Jr.
31:59picks him up again,
32:00I think was cut off
32:02way too fast,
32:03because it made it
32:04a little bit,
32:06it's weird,
32:07they cut that off too fast
32:08and made them split up,
32:09and then,
32:10they didn't really
32:11rush Bowser,
32:14I guess they didn't
32:15rush him as fast
32:16back to evil
32:16as I thought they would,
32:17but like,
32:18it's interesting to me
32:19that they were
32:20trying to do that,
32:21I wish we got more,
32:23because they were
32:23a really fun
32:25little quartet there
32:25for a bit,
32:26like if they'd done
32:27some obstacles together,
32:28that was an interesting
32:30part of the movie,
32:31because I,
32:32I thought it was
32:33going to be very like,
32:35cut and dry,
32:35like oh,
32:36he's just going to,
32:36he's going to act good
32:37right now,
32:38but then he's going to
32:39go bad like very soon,
32:40but no,
32:41he's genuine a little bit,
32:42yeah,
32:42it was genuine,
32:43I was like,
32:43wow,
32:44they're really humanizing him,
32:46I liked it a lot,
32:47I thought he was going
32:48to stop Junior,
32:49like I thought he was
32:49going to be like,
32:50no,
32:50we can't,
32:50like don't do this
32:51by the end of it,
32:52but yeah,
32:53yeah,
32:54and I really,
32:54and I really liked,
32:56you know,
32:56it being his son
32:57to kind of bring him
32:58back into that world,
33:01but no,
33:02on the topic of Bowser
33:03getting melted alive,
33:06the moment I saw the axe,
33:07I was like,
33:08oh,
33:08it's going to play out
33:08like that,
33:09he's going to fall
33:09in the lava,
33:10like I knew it was
33:11going to happen,
33:11but,
33:13um,
33:14it was just like,
33:15man,
33:16I'm just like,
33:17I just can't,
33:18I just can't believe,
33:19like how many references
33:21are in this movie,
33:23I need a reference counter,
33:25like I,
33:26it's a,
33:26that would have been me
33:26if I was being next to you,
33:28Game & Watch,
33:28Game & Watch was in the movie,
33:30that was so funny,
33:31that got me so good,
33:32I'm so glad they didn't
33:33ruin that in the surprise,
33:35like that would have been
33:35so mad if they showed him
33:37in like a trailer somewhere,
33:38because that's so funny,
33:38dude,
33:39I literally said,
33:41there were like two other
33:42people in my theater,
33:43and when Game & Watch,
33:44there was two times,
33:45when the Pikmin came out
33:47of the tiny Olimar rocket,
33:48I literally went,
33:49oh,
33:50like I made a noise,
33:51and I was like,
33:51sorry,
33:52and then when the fucking
33:54Game & Watch was there,
33:55and he was beating up
33:56Bowser or whatever,
33:57or he was beating up
33:58the dragon,
33:59I was like,
33:59the hammer,
34:00like I literally said,
34:01get him with the hammer,
34:02and he,
34:03oh,
34:04yeah,
34:04oh,
34:05it was so good,
34:06that was so funny,
34:07but like also him spawning
34:08from Luigi,
34:09just don't know how to draw,
34:11it's just so good,
34:12doodle bob rolls,
34:14yeah,
34:14and oh my god,
34:15Luigi was so funny too,
34:16like even when they came back
34:17and the castle was gone,
34:18he's like,
34:19the castle died,
34:20like he said that,
34:21the castle died,
34:22what does that even mean,
34:23oh my gosh,
34:24it died,
34:25yeah,
34:26it's died,
34:27it died,
34:27and they rebuild it,
34:28dude,
34:28they rebuild it in the little
34:29Mario world,
34:30yes,
34:31yeah,
34:32I need to geek out
34:33about this specifically,
34:34they used,
34:35wait a minute,
34:36what's it actually,
34:36they,
34:37I can't remember,
34:37because I,
34:38I might have been freaking out
34:39a little bit too much,
34:40but they used the sprites
34:41for Luigi from the Super Mario
34:43All-Stars version of the game,
34:45which is not the one
34:46from Mario Maker,
34:47they're different,
34:48so they went and used
34:49those specifically,
34:50which is really strange,
34:51and they made custom
34:52Rosalina SNES sprites,
34:54oh,
34:55wow,
34:56it was very cool,
34:57now,
34:59because I know that,
35:00you know,
35:00we're about to come up
35:02on 40 minutes here,
35:03so I'm going to keep it
35:04kind of exciting,
35:05because I know,
35:05this is going to be
35:06a YAP session,
35:07so it's what it is,
35:08maybe we can stream
35:09at some point,
35:10and we can talk more about,
35:11no,
35:11for sure,
35:12but I will say,
35:13because in the end,
35:14I'll say this movie
35:14was great as a fan,
35:16if you're a fan,
35:17you're going to love it,
35:17obviously,
35:18if you're just a gaming fan,
35:19and you're going to love it,
35:20if you are not very knowledgeable
35:22in Mario,
35:23and you are curious,
35:27I will say,
35:27err on the side of caution,
35:28just because you're not really
35:30getting a full-on story here,
35:31you're not getting an arc,
35:34maybe some,
35:35but you're,
35:36this movie is,
35:38honestly,
35:39for people to point
35:40at the screen and say,
35:40I know what that is,
35:42I clapped,
35:42I clapped,
35:42it really is,
35:43it really is that,
35:45and it's unapologetically that,
35:47and that's what I was doing
35:48the whole time,
35:49and yeah,
35:50I was too,
35:51finding out,
35:51and again,
35:52whoa,
35:52gear mode,
35:53look at that,
35:54wow,
35:54I will say,
35:55you know,
35:55this movie didn't,
35:56you know,
35:57tease like,
35:59a smash movie,
36:00the way I thought it would,
36:01as supposed it would,
36:02but I do want a Star Fox movie now,
36:05because,
36:05he was a highlight,
36:06I liked Fox McCloud,
36:07that was great,
36:08that was great,
36:10and the voice was fantastic,
36:11it was literally perfect,
36:12his quirks were perfect,
36:14I,
36:14the fact that they did the,
36:17the Lumas showed up,
36:19they were like,
36:19his backup Star Fox team,
36:21the whole thing,
36:23Fox was,
36:23he really gave the energy of like,
36:27oh gosh,
36:27there's a really specific character,
36:30of just like,
36:31when,
36:31you know,
36:32when everyone's like,
36:32focused on the cool stuff,
36:33he looks like an awesome,
36:35cool guy,
36:35but then it's every other moment of his life,
36:37he just kind of seems like a weird,
36:39little weirdo,
36:40dude,
36:40like,
36:40you know,
36:41him,
36:41him like,
36:43crying over his ship,
36:47it's his father's ship,
36:48it's his father's artwork,
36:50yeah,
36:51like,
36:51I get it,
36:52but like,
36:53I need more of him,
36:54I need more of him,
36:56and I hope this was,
36:57again,
36:57I hope this wasn't them shooting their boat too fast,
36:59and thinking like,
37:00they're not gonna get a chance,
37:01so let's just put everything in here,
37:02it's like,
37:03no,
37:03you're gonna make your money,
37:05people,
37:05there's a,
37:05people will,
37:06it's a Smash Brothers pilot,
37:08it's,
37:08it's a backdoor smash,
37:09bruise pilot,
37:10that's what it is,
37:11I'm hoping,
37:12I mentioned other universes,
37:14like,
37:14my thing was like,
37:15if I saw Kirby in this ending credits,
37:16I was gonna scream,
37:18yeah,
37:18I was expecting it,
37:19but it never happened,
37:20I was,
37:20but I will say,
37:23on the topic of the after credits,
37:26Daisy,
37:28I,
37:29I didn't actually see that one,
37:32really?
37:34No,
37:34cause I,
37:36listen,
37:37so,
37:37every time I go to the movie theater,
37:39and it's a movie I really want to see,
37:42I,
37:42unfortunately,
37:44have to pee really bad,
37:46I was,
37:47I was holding my bladder at that point,
37:49so,
37:49yeah,
37:50like,
37:50about halfway through the movie,
37:51I was like,
37:52I need to Google how many scenes are in this,
37:54and I didn't check,
37:55you know,
37:55I didn't see what they were,
37:56but I saw there was one at the middle,
37:58and then at the after,
37:59like,
37:59final,
38:00and I was like,
38:01okay,
38:01and I got to the point,
38:02and I was like,
38:03middle credits,
38:03that sucked,
38:04alright,
38:05then I looked it up,
38:06and I was like,
38:06what is the last one,
38:07and I checked,
38:08it was like,
38:09Daisy's hand,
38:10alright,
38:11I'm leaving,
38:11I'm gonna,
38:12go to pee now,
38:13see you guys,
38:14like,
38:14I was like,
38:14listen,
38:15I don't,
38:16I don't mean to be like,
38:18I like Princess Daisy,
38:19she's great,
38:20she's very fun,
38:20she's definitely like,
38:21the most personality based of the three of them,
38:24so far,
38:24but like,
38:25the fact that we had all this shit in this movie,
38:28and their idea of teasing the next one,
38:30is showing Daisy,
38:31like,
38:32once,
38:32it's like,
38:33dude,
38:33what is Daisy gonna do,
38:34that we didn't do this time?
38:36Like,
38:36I don't know,
38:37like,
38:37so,
38:38I don't mean to be mean,
38:39but,
38:39you know.
38:40these after credits,
38:41did not,
38:43excite me the way I feel like,
38:44after credits should,
38:45do it,
38:45like,
38:45I'm curious,
38:46I'm interested,
38:47obviously,
38:48but,
38:48I'll watch the next one,
38:49I'm going to see whatever they do next,
38:50I'm gonna watch it,
38:51but I'm just like,
38:52but I wasn't like,
38:54holy shit,
38:56what's gonna happen next?
38:57It's like,
38:57I never,
38:58cause first off,
38:59the first after credit,
39:01they showed that already,
39:03as a teaser,
39:05to this movie,
39:06with the,
39:06with the Luma,
39:08call it,
39:09like,
39:09like,
39:10don't do that,
39:11please,
39:12don't tease,
39:13I forgot that that was in there,
39:15like,
39:15don't use,
39:16an after credit,
39:17as a trailer,
39:18okay,
39:18like,
39:19I,
39:19I,
39:20you know,
39:20it,
39:21it was funny,
39:22it was funny though,
39:22it was funny,
39:23it made me laugh,
39:24but I'm just like,
39:25okay,
39:25that was the funny one,
39:26now what's the next one,
39:27let's tease the next movie,
39:28Daisy to me,
39:30I,
39:31I don't have that much knowledge,
39:32about Daisy,
39:34and I'm,
39:34I,
39:35I turned to Kenny's brother,
39:36and I was just like,
39:38what,
39:38what is so special about,
39:40Daisy,
39:41like,
39:41what,
39:42what,
39:42what are they gonna do,
39:43and he didn't know either,
39:45and he's a huge Mario guy,
39:46I'm like,
39:47okay,
39:47so Dylan,
39:48I'm gonna ask you,
39:50huge Mario man,
39:52yeah,
39:53so,
39:54what's there,
39:55like,
39:55is there a reason for me being excited,
39:57specifically about Daisy,
39:58is there like a lore thing there?
40:00No,
40:01not really,
40:02like,
40:02what,
40:02what the thing is with Daisy,
40:04is she was,
40:05she was introduced in Mario Land 1,
40:07on the Game Boy,
40:08and,
40:08you know,
40:09her sprite was like,
40:10that is a girl,
40:11I think,
40:12you know,
40:12like,
40:12that's a woman.
40:13She was essentially like,
40:14the peach of that game,
40:15right,
40:15she was,
40:15she was just a peach,
40:16she was just like the person you saved,
40:18there was no anything,
40:19just a different name,
40:20Daisy,
40:21later on,
40:22they bring her back for,
40:23mostly spin-off,
40:24it was only spin-off things,
40:26Mario Party,
40:27Mario Tennis,
40:28Mario Sports,
40:28like all those things,
40:29and she's,
40:30like,
40:30they characterize her as,
40:33I mean,
40:33for a bit she's,
40:34kind of,
40:35just like Peach,
40:36for a bit,
40:37but then like,
40:37eventually they characterize her as more,
40:40bubbly,
40:40she's louder,
40:41she's very into the sports stuff,
40:43like her animations are really,
40:44type of thing,
40:45yeah,
40:46and she has like a,
40:47sort of a,
40:48I think there's some clips of her just being very,
40:51frustrated and angry and stuff,
40:52so it's like,
40:53she has a very different personality from Peach,
40:55she's very much,
40:56the Luigi to Peach's Mario,
40:58where Peach is the,
41:00or she used to be the,
41:01oh,
41:01I'm just the princess,
41:02and you save the princess,
41:03and it's,
41:04you know,
41:04like,
41:04I'm baking a cake,
41:06but you know,
41:07Luigi was,
41:09to Mario,
41:09where Luigi was like,
41:10I have a personality a bit more,
41:12I have,
41:13you know,
41:14more this and that,
41:15or whatever,
41:16Daisy's kind of like that in my mind,
41:17the reason,
41:18the thing about like,
41:19her being like a,
41:20she's obviously a fan favorite character,
41:22she got into Smash Brothers,
41:24she's,
41:25been a requested character,
41:26for plenty of things,
41:26they put her in Mario Wonder,
41:28because she's a big character,
41:29I'm not angry about her being in the movies,
41:29like,
41:29I think it's great,
41:30that she's there,
41:31but like,
41:32being the main person,
41:33she doesn't have anything,
41:34like,
41:34there's not any,
41:35major appearance for her,
41:36so,
41:37anything they're gonna do with her,
41:39is probably gonna be,
41:41completely new,
41:42which is interesting,
41:43it's like,
41:44it worries,
41:45yeah,
41:46it'll be interesting,
41:47and it makes me wonder,
41:48you know,
41:49will she be,
41:51like a main character in the next movie,
41:52or will she just be like,
41:53will she just be like Rosalina,
41:55will she just be there for like,
41:56two minutes,
41:57like,
41:57I don't know,
41:58um,
41:59I want a Sunshine movie,
42:03I want a Sunshine movie,
42:04they could do that easily now,
42:06because they could have the,
42:07they could be like,
42:08they don't want to go to Isle Delfino,
42:10on the planet,
42:11the Mushroom Kingdom's on,
42:12if that's not a thing,
42:13we've seen Piantas,
42:15we've seen Ocean Planet,
42:17so we can go to that.
42:18Actually,
42:19I think,
42:20I actually do have a good idea,
42:22what the next movie is gonna be,
42:23if they were smart,
42:25in their approach here,
42:26if you caught in the movie,
42:28Bowser,
42:29was talking about,
42:31being heartbroken,
42:32from his wedding,
42:34yeah,
42:35and I was like,
42:36hmm,
42:36Odyssey maybe,
42:37like maybe,
42:38and I thought maybe,
42:40oh,
42:40the end credit,
42:41when he was talking about this stuff,
42:42I was like,
42:42oh,
42:43maybe I'm gonna see Cappy at the end,
42:44Cappy at the end of this movie,
42:46doesn't happen,
42:47I was like,
42:48that'd be interesting,
42:49I thought,
42:49I thought we were gonna get,
42:50like an Odyssey tease,
42:51I thought like,
42:52we were gonna go straight into Odyssey,
42:53like,
42:53Bowser trying to reignite,
42:55uh,
42:56the whole marriage thing,
42:58and like,
42:58flame or something,
42:59yeah,
42:59that flame that doesn't exist,
43:01that flame that doesn't exist,
43:02oh,
43:03I,
43:04I'll,
43:04dude,
43:05okay,
43:05so that's what you thought was gonna happen,
43:07how about,
43:07right,
43:08since we are getting,
43:10I mean,
43:10I can talk as long as you want,
43:11but like,
43:11since we are getting up there in time,
43:13what do you,
43:16what do you,
43:18where do you think it's gonna go from here,
43:21where do you,
43:21where would you want it to go,
43:23realistic or unrealistic,
43:24I'm just curious,
43:25where do you think it would go from here?
43:27I truly am lost at sea right now,
43:30I have not the slightest idea we're going here,
43:33like,
43:33I could say,
43:34like,
43:35vaguely,
43:36like,
43:36potentially,
43:37we're going,
43:38we're leading toward a Smash movie,
43:40with Fox being in here,
43:41and,
43:41and the whole multi-universe,
43:43by the way,
43:43I want to say real quick,
43:44that animation,
43:45that 2D animation,
43:46that was so good,
43:47oh my gosh,
43:48oh my god,
43:49it was insane,
43:49I couldn't believe I was looking at the same,
43:51not that the main movie was bad,
43:52I want that to be a whole movie,
43:53I would watch a whole thing of that,
43:55give me two hours of that,
43:56it was amazing,
43:57oh my gosh,
43:58yeah,
43:58but no,
43:59like,
43:59like,
44:00vaguely,
44:01potentially,
44:02you just reminded me of the Slippy Toad,
44:04on the movie screen in 2026,
44:07where the fuck is this,
44:08where are we,
44:09yeah,
44:09I don't know,
44:10because there's so many power-ups,
44:11it feels like,
44:12that's why I don't know where we're going,
44:15because this movie,
44:17referenced everything,
44:18every movie,
44:19every video game you've ever played with Mario,
44:21is referenced in here,
44:22I'm sure there's a tennis racket in here somewhere,
44:24if you think,
44:24if you look hard enough,
44:25there is,
44:26you know,
44:27there was,
44:28I don't know,
44:30because that's what was my worry,
44:31I was like,
44:31I feel like this movie might be doing too much,
44:34I feel like they're worried,
44:35they're not going to get greenlit for a third movie,
44:38when clearly it's going to be successful,
44:40you got time to,
44:41to do,
44:42to do a,
44:43a Yoshi's Island side series,
44:45if you want to,
44:46or to do,
44:46like some more,
44:47Yoshi's Island Netflix,
44:49you know,
44:50the,
44:50the,
44:50the whole intro,
44:51by the way,
44:52where we're at the Odyssey location in the desert,
44:54and they introduce Yoshi,
44:56this movie,
44:56immediately is like,
44:58we aren't questioning anything,
45:00Yoshi's part of the crew now,
45:02Toad is like,
45:03oh,
45:03there's a green dinosaur,
45:05and now he's just part of the crew,
45:06okay,
45:07you know,
45:08this is the most real one,
45:10I like that Yoshi,
45:11from his very brief time in Brooklyn,
45:14learned enough social,
45:15and just awareness,
45:16etiquette of everything around him,
45:18that he is basically just,
45:20fully able to understand,
45:22every situation he's placed in,
45:23with no,
45:24like questions asked,
45:25which is really funny,
45:26no questions,
45:27because like,
45:28Stevie Lee was just bored,
45:29right,
45:29like he's only like,
45:30a couple days old,
45:31they wanted to just,
45:33immediately,
45:35get on the,
45:37by the way,
45:37yeah,
45:37that whole,
45:38like,
45:38flashback with Yoshi,
45:39and him getting chased,
45:40by the cops,
45:41crazy,
45:42that's hilarious,
45:43but you can tell,
45:45they are rushing,
45:47they want,
45:48all of the cast,
45:50readily available,
45:51as fast as possible,
45:52but like,
45:53part of me is like,
45:54for what,
45:55like,
45:55do you have a story in mind,
45:57that you want to tell,
45:58that you just can't do,
45:59without all these characters,
46:01does that exist,
46:02in the Mario universe,
46:04I don't think it does,
46:05so it's like,
46:05I feel like,
46:06that's why part of me is like,
46:07worried,
46:07like I hope this movie is not,
46:10rushing,
46:10I hope,
46:11you know,
46:11it,
46:12it knows what it wants to do,
46:13in the future,
46:13it's not just doing everything,
46:15all at once,
46:16now,
46:16that is definitely,
46:18where,
46:19Sonic,
46:20and Mario,
46:21change,
46:21like,
46:21there's a difference,
46:22in these movies,
46:23if you like,
46:24if you like the,
46:25the universe,
46:26being built up slowly,
46:28and we're talking like,
46:29two to three characters,
46:30introduced max,
46:32you're gonna like Sonic,
46:33like,
46:33if you like,
46:34balls to the wall,
46:35no breaks,
46:36like,
46:37go,
46:38go,
46:38go,
46:39show me what I want to see,
46:40show me the love,
46:41show me this world,
46:42on the screen,
46:43Mario,
46:44Mario movie is like,
46:46unapologetically that.
46:48Cause it's,
46:48so usually,
46:50the opposite,
46:51isn't it?
46:51Opposite!
46:52Sonic is usually the one rushing,
46:53but now it's like,
46:54Mario is like,
46:56so it's like,
46:57yeah,
46:57it's like,
46:58it's so much so,
46:59that,
47:00the after credit character,
47:01was Daisy.
47:02I am,
47:03I'm just praying for,
47:05where I want to see this go,
47:06where I think it's going,
47:07like we said a couple times now,
47:10I don't know why they put Fox McCloud,
47:12and talk about other universes,
47:13in this movie,
47:13if they're not making the Smash Brothers thing,
47:15or they're not trying to.
47:16Yeah.
47:16I don't know if there's going to be,
47:17I don't know.
47:18Like,
47:19I could see them doing a DK movie first,
47:21maybe a Star Fox movie,
47:23if we're lucky,
47:24I guess.
47:25But like,
47:26Yeah.
47:27where I would like them to go,
47:29and it would be so much simpler,
47:31than shoving every single Mario game,
47:32into everything.
47:33Just take one of the RPGs,
47:35I'm begging you.
47:36Just take any of the Mario,
47:38Luigi games,
47:38just have a Mario,
47:39Luigi Superstar Saga movie,
47:40and I'll,
47:41I'll go see it.
47:42Yeah.
47:42I'll watch it every day,
47:44for the rest of time.
47:44A whole Paper Mario movie.
47:46Like,
47:46That was,
47:47yeah.
47:47That's what I'm saying though,
47:48is like,
47:49you have time to do side series.
47:51You have time to do,
47:53I was thinking,
47:53multiple movies.
47:55I was thinking maybe Toad,
47:56remember when Toad was like,
47:57my novel's in there.
47:58I was wondering,
48:00if that novel,
48:00was going to turn out,
48:01to be the Paper Mario book,
48:02as like a reference.
48:04But I,
48:04I could not tell,
48:05because they threw the book,
48:06on screen so fast.
48:08Yeah.
48:09And it was just,
48:10yeah.
48:11So,
48:11I mean,
48:12I guess just,
48:12in the end,
48:13movie was great overall.
48:15I,
48:15I enjoyed my time.
48:16If,
48:17again,
48:17Mario,
48:17you know,
48:18if you,
48:18I mean,
48:19I would,
48:19if you're watching this video,
48:21this far,
48:21thus far,
48:22you,
48:22you would have already seen the movie.
48:24Or you just like us a lot.
48:26Or,
48:26yeah,
48:26that too.
48:27But I enjoyed it.
48:29Adil,
48:29it sounds like you enjoyed it overall.
48:32I enjoyed it.
48:32I think,
48:33take a Mario fan to see it.
48:35Go,
48:35bring a Mario fan in your life,
48:36to go see it.
48:37And I think you'll have a lot more fun than if you aren't a Mario fan and you go see
48:40it on your own.
48:41Yeah,
48:41bring a Mario fan.
48:42I will say,
48:43though,
48:43at the same time,
48:44I think the critiques for this movie are valid.
48:46I think there are things they could learn for next time.
48:49I think just because it's Mario,
48:50just because it's Nintendo,
48:51doesn't mean it doesn't have to have a very surface level story.
48:54I think they could slow down a little bit.
48:56They could take their time in these locations.
48:58If they,
48:58if they stayed in some of these locations a little bit longer,
49:03built up some of these characters to introduce them more,
49:05and had a more of an adventure with us that low in that location,
49:09people would still have a great time.
49:10So I'm wondering where they're going to go from here.
49:13I literally have no idea.
49:14I thought I did before I saw this movie and I walked out having more questions.
49:18Um,
49:20yeah,
49:20I guess I have like one,
49:22one tiny last thing about this movie compared to the first one.
49:26And I I've seen a couple of people say like the first one's definitely more rewatchable.
49:31I think that's probably true just because of how that movie's laid out.
49:35It's definitely laid out better than this one.
49:38It's a bit of a,
49:39like a,
49:39like a roller coaster.
49:40Like we've been saying,
49:41it's very go,
49:42go,
49:42go,
49:42go,
49:42go.
49:43But the thing is,
49:44I do want to mention,
49:46they did keep a little bit of the elements from the first movie about family.
49:51And they did tie it into a couple places.
49:55Like I could see them trying to do a few things here and there.
49:57Like in the first movie,
49:59it's obviously about Mario trying to find himself and find something to make his family proud
50:04or like make himself proud mainly first.
50:07And that's obviously big family values,
50:09big family thing.
50:11In the second movie,
50:12we have family Mario and Luigi.
50:14It's really played down.
50:15They don't really have as many family moments for Mario and Luigi,
50:18but they do kind of adopt Yoshi.
50:20I guess we do have Bowser and Bowser Jr,
50:24which is a really weird thing because he kind of just abandoned his son,
50:27but then he tries to repair the relationship,
50:29which Bowser Jr is not even upset about at all.
50:32So like they had something going there.
50:34And I thought maybe they would have more back and forth about it,
50:37but you know,
50:38it was still family.
50:39And it's,
50:39I do think there is some sweetness to Bowser Jr.
50:44Like we said earlier,
50:45being the one to bring his dad back to the side of pure evil,
50:48even though it's opposite character.
50:50It's a character regression.
50:51Technically,
50:52I think it's sweet because it was Bowser Jr.
50:54and his father and not to mention Kamek is Bowser's father.
50:59Technically he raised Bowser.
51:03So Kamek hanging out with Bowser Jr.
51:05and Bowser,
51:05which they didn't get much screen time together in this one.
51:07Yeah.
51:08Is another family thing.
51:09And then of course we have Peach and Rosalina being siblings.
51:12So we have this big thing where they're like,
51:15they seem to really want to,
51:17like they want to tell a story about family,
51:19I think.
51:20And they,
51:20they just don't have a story.
51:22They're not going all the way.
51:23Yeah.
51:23It feels like they're hesitant.
51:25Just go farther.
51:25Or like either,
51:27either it's Illumination wants to,
51:29Nintendo's either tell them no,
51:30or it's,
51:32there is none.
51:33Or I will say this,
51:35or they probably think we wouldn't care about these characters,
51:38actual stories.
51:39Well,
51:39I'll say this right now.
51:40We do.
51:41We wouldn't want to do that.
51:43Seeing these,
51:44seeing some of these characters that are usually surface level,
51:46more humanized,
51:48and put more depth into in this,
51:50it's what makes the movie special.
51:52For what little they have.
51:54It's great for what little depth they have.
51:56And unlike,
51:57I would say like Sonic movies that have like a set lore for each character,
52:01where if the movies don't really follow a certain script,
52:04people would hate it.
52:05Mario movies are the opposite,
52:06where these characters are surface level.
52:09A lot of them are kind of like a blank canvas.
52:11You kind of have a bit of creative freedom to like,
52:14make something out of nothing.
52:17Make something unique,
52:19or something that people would like more.
52:21I think confirming that Rosalina is Princess Peach's sister was a great example of that.
52:29And I would love to see more stuff like that in the future,
52:32in whatever the hell conglomerate movie they're making next time.
52:36I will definitely see it.
52:38Honestly, too,
52:38like they actually,
52:39like,
52:40I was just talking about it,
52:41but they even gave Mario and Luigi a full family in the previous movie.
52:45Like,
52:46not even to ignore that.
52:47They have a full family,
52:48and they all have names.
52:49Full on,
52:50yeah.
52:51That's cool.
52:51I love that.
52:53Yeah.
52:53So yeah,
52:53they should,
52:54it's okay to leave more into that.
52:56And,
52:57yeah,
52:58with all that said,
53:00thanks for watching.
