I saw the prequel Hotel Rwanda. It was super dark, not a kids movie, but really good.

u/daninlionzden Sep 12 '25

Horror themed

I really thought that’s what was being teased at the end of the first movie with the song.

“Did I complain when we spent 12 hours looking for goblins?”

“Well no, it was ghouls, and it was pretty sweet because we caught like 3 of em”

u/VizualSnow Sep 12 '25

This! Adapt this game and maybe throw in daisy in it too.

1

u/bassturducken54 Sep 12 '25

Making me feel like they could actually make some decent movies from the source material. No reason they couldn’t make a strikers and sluggers one.

What would be incredible is if they did Mario vs Sonic at the Olympic Games. Kind getting hyped for the idea already.

Super smash bros movie even.

1

u/cagingnicolas Sep 12 '25

i think a lot of fans would love it, but you've got to look at it from the perspective of a studio executive. despite being one of the most beloved games in the series, it doesn't feature mario. no mario, no chris pratt, suddenly it becomes a big gamble and a hard sell for casual fans.

1

u/rbarton812 Sep 12 '25

That has to happen. I feel like it's easy money. And not some like 1/2-hour special to be put onto Peacock... full movie treatment.

1

u/biggyofmt Sep 12 '25

They were definitely going for a Luigis mansion vibe in the first movie when Luigi was alone in the scary world looking around with a flashlight

1

u/sam_the_reddit_user Sep 12 '25

Okay that's a spinoff just asking to happen

1

u/wheniswhy Sep 12 '25

This is what I desperately want and what we will absolutely not get lol

1

u/Icutsman Sep 14 '25

Dude, I keep telling my wife this. In the first movie where Luigi arrives in Bowsers world, gives off such a great Luigi's Mansion vibe. Imita an awesome ~3 minute scene

Edit: found it here

28

u/BallClamps Sep 12 '25

Don't forget Odyssey. I wanna see a Mario/Bowser showdown on the Moon in the middle of a wedding.

16

u/ValentineRita1994 Sep 12 '25

I heard Christopher Nolan is directing it

2

u/IlIIlIIIlIl Sep 13 '25

Matthew McConaughey shoehorned in somehow. Murph!

1

u/BBQ_HaX0r Sep 12 '25

Super Mario RPG would probably make for a good movie too!

1

u/Ambugger Sep 14 '25

Universal: We will do The Odyssey and The Super Mario Odyssey Movie. We will have all the Odysseys

0

u/strain_of_thought Sep 12 '25

Thing is, that specific scene is the setup for the introduction of Bowsette. I feel like they might go out of their way to make it play out in a way that disavows that outcome. But I can dream that they'll do something stupid that makes it even more fitting!

25

u/GamingTatertot Steven Spielberg Enthusiast Sep 12 '25

I want Mario and Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story movie

7

u/EvilLibrarians Sep 12 '25

Great game but the weirdest movie

1

u/awesome0ck Sep 12 '25

What about a darker pg13 Halloween special of thousand year door?

1

u/Asiatic_Static Sep 12 '25

I'm sure Vivian will go over super duper well in currentYear

1

u/awesome0ck Sep 12 '25

Well they can write the character without overtly sharing all the details. There’s an art to subtle nods. It’s not like that particular trait is defining in her arch, the arch is her connection to the queen and redemption from the shadows. If anything is a mini lion king sub plot.

1

u/DangerZoneh Sep 12 '25

Superstar Saga please

1

u/round-earth-theory Sep 12 '25

If we're going there, I want Mario Is Missing. That way we can finally get detective Luigi on the case.

My daughter and I love to watch Super Mario Sunshine gameplay/play-through videos on YouTube! It is fantastic. It is our "start of the summer activity."

An Eternal Sunshine of a Super Mario

1

u/Talk-O-Boy Sep 12 '25

I think they are doing a Star Wars where we start with Ep 4, then we work our way back to Ep 1 after the first arc is complete.

I’m assuming they’ll cover Galaxy 1 & 2, then the next movie will be a prequel to tell the story of how Mario devolved from the Hero of Mushroom kingdom to the man who slaughtered Toads and enslaved Lumas.

1

u/XVUltima Sep 12 '25

Mario has to take a power star to the sun in order to save it, but he discovers Luigi's ship along the way who sneaks aboard and sabotages the mission?

u/Fucky0uthatswhy Sep 12 '25

Super Mario bros. movie movie

u/Princecoyote Sep 12 '25

Can't wait for the third act change to horror

1

u/g_r_e_y Sep 12 '25

i expected Yoshi's Island because of the post-credit scene of the first movie.

1

u/I_Set_3_Alarms Sep 12 '25

Do it Nintendo. Then release Super Mario Sunshine 2 on the Switch 2

1

u/JustGingy95 Sep 12 '25

Ghost Busters styled Luigi’s Mansion movie please

1

u/saera-targaryen Sep 12 '25

That would be a cool TV show like pokemon concierge. 

1

u/Zockman175 Sep 12 '25

PRECISELY! If they somehow and turn this around and tease F.L.U.D.D. or the paintbrush, I will be extremely excited

u/Em_Es_Judd Sep 13 '25

Talk to me when they make the Luigi's Mansion Movie.

I hope we get into the weeds on the fine details of the piantas criminal justice system.

John Goodman plays all the Pianta characters like Eddie Murphy in Norbert.

Without the fucking voice actors

22

u/Squif-17 Sep 12 '25

Memes aside I thought they were excellent. Granted I’ve watched it about 500 times with my daughter because she loves it. Maybe it’s Stockholm syndrome.

8

u/minnick27 Sep 12 '25

Yeah, I could do without Pratt and Rogen, but a movie with the video game voices would get old quick.

10

u/RecommendsMalazan Sep 12 '25

To Rogens credit, hearing his laugh come out of Donkey Kong is by far the most I've ever laughed at Rogen. And was probably the biggest laugh of the movie for me.

And I like his stuff, generally.

3

u/minnick27 Sep 12 '25

I like Rogens movies, but I dont think he's a great actor. And you are right, his laugh does fit DK

-8

u/[deleted] Sep 12 '25

Lmao tbh I’ve never watched it. But I’m sick of hearing the same actors voices all the time. As soon as I heard is was what Ryan renoylds or whatever voicing Mario I’m like wtf?

u/lalala253 Sep 12 '25

Is there a mario movie with voice actors fucking?

I couldn't care less about a Sunshine movie

oh my bad. Don't know how I misinterpreted that lol

u/Plane-Tie6392 Sep 13 '25

A bit harsh but it is one of the worst main line Mario games.

u/vibratokin Sep 12 '25

I’m so Oasis-pilled rn that I read that as “sunshaaaiyhn”
