Movie Mario Bros. 2022 Animated Movie - Chris Pratt and Charlie Day

[VenomInside]

During Thursday's latest Nintendo Direct event, acclaimed video game designer Miyamoto Shigeru announced that the company's upcoming feature length animation project — in conjunction with American film studio, Illumination — now has a firm North American theatrical release date of December 21st, 2022.

While release dates for Europe, Japan, and other markets have yet to be revealed, Miyamoto did share the studio's key character casting decisions. Chris Pratt will voice Mario. "He's so cool," Miyamoto commented. Anya Taylor-Joy, star of Netflix's hit series Queen's Gambit will portray Princess Peach while It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia star Charlie Day will voice Luigi. Jack Black will of course be the voice behind series villain, Bowser, while Keegan Michael-Key has been cast as Toad. And, for some reason, Seth Rogan will be in this too as Donkey Kong? The company is also bringing back long-time voice actor Charles Martinet — who has portrayed Mario and the rest of his cohort in a number of games to date — to fill in on various cameos throughout the film.

Jack Black as Bowser was awesome, Pratt did NOT sell me on Mario. Looks great otherwise.

We had this as a gag gift for a Christmas gift exchange that got passed around each year, but I still never watched it.

Pratt was not a good choice here. What, they couldn't get the actual mario voice actor?

 

[m_dogg]

Not too bad based on trailer.

I assume this is for the movie. Bringing the OG cartoon theme is ftw.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie

The movie tells the story of two Brooklyn plumbers who are brothers and best friends: Mario, the brave one with the "let's-a go" attitude, and the perpetually anxious Luigi, who would prefer to go nowhere. We open with the Super Mario Brothers reckoning with their struggling plumbing business...

We were going to do a double feature with this and Air

 

[Mook]

8 hours round trip is a long drive for an hour and a half movie filled with Easter eggs and a likely 2.5 hour movie of Ben Affleck.

 

[Sprayin]

Oh I know. Hell a 20 min drive was far for you.
