 Nintendo shocked people today by announcing a new Super Mario Brothers animated film, being created by Illumination Studios, and it's gonna hit theaters December 2022. This was crazy coincidental, because I myself am a big gamer, and I was just playing Microsoft's Mario 64 on the Sega Genesis. And as I was playing the game, I paused it for a second as Mario was mid-jump. I looked at him, and I was listening and thought to myself, man, you know who would make a really good Mario who would really nail the role as the Italian plumber? Chris Pratt. Nintendo must have been listening because he's playing him. He's playing the plumber, and we got Anna Taylor Joy playing Princess Peach, of course. Who else would play her? It's the perfect casting. It's always sunny at the Mushroom Kingdom, which means we got Charlie Day in this as Luigi. Do you think they picked Charlie Day as Luigi because Luigi wears green and Charlie Day was green man and always sunny in Philadelphia? Is that how completely stupid Hollywood cast? Yeah, it is. That's what it is. Seth Rogen's playing Donkey Kong, so I assume DK is gonna be stoned off his ass most of the film? Kind of for it. And last but not least is Toad. Well, maybe least as well. He's played by Keegan-Michael Key, because I guess Kevin Hart was busy that week. Although I believe Kevin Hart is lending his voice to a different video game character, Claptrap, for Borderlands the movie. So he's still fine in work. It's good for him. First impressions. I don't know. I have thoughts, I guess. Well, Charlie Day will be a good Luigi. Anna Taylor Joy is a princess as far as I'm concerned, so that's great casting. Keegan-Michael Key as Toad? Okay. I like him, so that's fine. Chris Pratt's the only one I'm a little puzzled on. I mean, I know he's got the star power. He's done voiceover stuff before for the Lego movie, although by the time the second one hit, I was kind of over that whole Emmett schtick. And I know people are instantly gonna react to it. Why didn't they just get the original Mario voiceover actor? He's still going. He's still doing it. I think that they're probably not gonna go for the let's go. Super Mario Sunshine. I think that that's probably not the way they're gonna take the character. That might get a little annoying. You know, for an hour and a half, two hours, they're probably gonna go with a more traditional sounding character, which does take away, I think, a little bit. We have tried this before though. We had the live action Mario with Bob Hoskins and the pest as Luigi, so it's not like we were sticking to a playbook there, although that was a complete train wreck. Still, it's illumination. You know exactly what you're gonna get. The Mario universe already skews that way anyways, so I think illumination is a good studio for this. I'm just not completely sold on Pratt, but if Star Lord can present me with a great trailer, maybe he'll convert me. Maybe I'll become a believer in the Mario movie. Those are my quick thoughts. Just wanted to get a video out there. Let me know what you have to say. I'm sure plenty. I'm sure you have plenty of stuff to talk about. Pop that subscribe button if you haven't. Just toss a shell onto it, hit it, get the coin, get the subscription. Like the video by doing a quick Mario uppercut jump. And if you really want to power up, god, I'm still using these stupid terms. Share the video around. Goodbye. Diddy diddy diddy did.
