I hope everyone has had a great weekend! I got to see The Super Mario Bros. Movie Thursday night and it was absolutely fantastic. If you take anything away from this post, I hope it's "GO SEE THE NEW MARIO MOVIE!!! " But Nintendo fans know that there was already a Mario Bros film out there, something far more sinister. So I also watched Super Mario Bros with Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo, and boy howdy, there sure is a difference.

There's something so jarring about watching a film by two directors who had only ever played mario games while filming, vs one with so much love and care put into each detail even the font makes you nostalgic. but the old movie strikes nostalgia in my heart in a very different way, so although I would recommend Mario 2023 over Mario 1993, I'd also say that the old mario movie is at least worth a watch to laugh at, or admire some good acting under very trying circumstances. Both sets of brothers from Brooklyn are absolutely brilliant.
