Super Mario Bros. 1993 is getting a 4K release!
(www.vooks.net)
I'm happy this movie is finally getting some love. I first saw it as a kid and always enjoyed it.
When this came out when I was a kid, what I really wanted was the recent Mario movie.
Now, as an adult, I definitely dig this weird shit lol
The thing is, the original cut had an end scene that made it kind of passable.
Spoiler
Basically, two Nintendo executives finish talking with 2 of the guys about what happened, and try to buy the rights to their story so they can make a video game.
Also, seeing the Super Scope 6 in a movie was sick. I loved that damn bazooka thing.
It may not be a good Super Mario movie, but I enjoy it.
It's not good, it's great!
Yup, I love it!
Not the Morton Jankel cut though.
Haven't checked out the rough cut restoration project but the movie needs a real director's cut version. It's a classic and before its time
I watched this version a while ago and wrote a review. I really enjoyed it and I think the extra scenes actually improved the film.
Yeah I mean maybe the overall structure of the movie wasn't quite there, but the end scene with the Nintendo executives really ties it together.
I recently read up on this movie, what a shit show it was to make. Some pretty wild stuff here: https://www.theguardian.com/games/2018/mar/22/super-mario-bros-movie-killing-fields-chariots-fire-video-game
This documentary also shines some light on the film's extremely troubled production.
Nice!! Thanks for the link, I'll check it out tonight.
Please no lol
