Hi Filmento, will you make The Last Of Us 2 video?

​@@manashjyotigautamaYou mean Gogeta.

Guess Nintendo still doesn't like free promotion

Everyone hates and loves Nintendo

As a big fan of Pokémon and an epic gamer I was so happy when detective pikachu was actually pretty cool. Especially the actual Pokémon and what they did with them, mf greninja goons were dope and I’m a gren hater.

But we gotta be honest, the only reason why the Mario movie succeeded is simply because it’s Mario. They played it safe and relied heavily on the fact that fans already know who Mario is and what his world is like. The sonic movie was a success because it’s story actually written in a manner that allows anyone to understand the film without having to already know who sonic is

@@drsipp407there is literally nothing to know about Mario. He’s an Italian plumber. The end. And yet the movie also adds a bit of depth to him and gives him an actual arc. Not going to praise this as a masterpiece but it’s a fun movie about the wahoo mamma Mia guy.

@@Yethegoat10When i See Pokemon today i'm really sad...

Imagine if they did a Kirby film

While there was no other motivation that could have been as compelling to Mario as getting his brother back, it was still a very shallow and unexplored one. As far as we know, Mario was always going to stop Bowser. Mario is very reactive and positive to everything he meets in no way helping to show us why we should care. The only conflicts are physical with no weight behind them other than the video game context. He never believed once that he wouldn't be able to get his brother back. This is because of the lack of any internal conflict, contributing to a lack of character growth.

@@cstreak2855 I kinda agree but also I don't. I think it was very easy to care about Princess Peach, the Mushroom Kingdom, and the Toads. Her relationship with them was very well explored and gave it much more depth than I think the games have done for a long time. And I also loved Mario's relationship with Peach. It wasn't too focused on the romance between them. It was there, but it didn't feel forced or anything. I thought it was very well done. I also thought Mario's relationship with his brother was well-explored and I found myself caring. However, I do agree that the movie should have explored Mario's internal conflict more. It wasn't really explored enough. But I think primarily it was because the movie still wasn't willing to be negative enough. The best example to compare is the Sonic 2 movie. Where Sonic has to deal with his internal conflict of wanting to be a hero but being reckless in doing so. Sonic actually truly confronts his inner flaw and changes after Tails gets hurt. It's actually pretty emotional and I could clearly see how Sonic changed because of it. All this movie needed was a single moment of Mario truly expressing regret and sadness over his inner flaw of wanting to be taken seriously. Like, the moment with him and Donkey Kong while inside the Morel Eel was good, but it still needed some extra oomph with more actual negative emotion and then I think Mario's inner conflict would have been adequately explored.

It’s a 50/50 but your right

Yup n its been done on mario games n it works great

I believe it's most important feature is that it sets up Luigi's development

He wasn't the one who ended it, that was either Pikachu or sonic

​@@ballisticboo7808they were the first to not be terrible And I did love both But this one in terms of sales as well Did the best

He helped end it.

There was also the adult film parody which Nintendo was so freak out by the existence of they bought the rights to it so it wouldn't be released officially

Nah. If we counting cartoons, Pokémon made like 3000% profit back in '99.

It also apparently explains Mario's shortness compared to Luigi. Quite funny.

Apparently, Mario's dislikes for mushrooms was suggested by Shigeru Miyamoto himself as he thought it would be funny

It's also funny that both Mario and Sonic hate mushrooms in their movies

It doesn’t really count if it doesn’t impact the plot If Mario liked mushrooms the story wouldn’t have changed at all

Good lord, the lengths people will go to to praise literally nothing.

Sonic is one of the games that should...The franchise has a bunch of good storys wich work for movies

@@ZeroJumpAnd just as many bad ones as well.

@@HB-fq9nn Yes but realy means nothing. Comic book Movies csn he realy good and they had sone terrible comics

​@@HB-fq9nnMario stories are super simple tho, aside from Paper Mario

​@@maazabbasi9174 omg god could you imagine a paper Mario movie with a scrapbook arts and crafts aesthetic 😩

I had to listen to it three times. The first one, it surprised me. The second time, I needed to confirm my suspicion. The third, to appreciate.

It was fitting.

Ah be' l'abbiamo avvisato in due lol

Mind you he ate that whole thing in one bite.

Compelling...?

@@aaroncarroll2417 Yeah? You got a problem with that?

@victorcancelas1435 it was a sort of fun kids movie. Compelling it was not! Puss in Boots 2, no one asked for it, that shit was compelling! Mario offered nothing besides, "Hey! It's the thing from the game" "Ooh ooh ooh! That's the Supah Star!" If that's what you like, that's what you like. I didn't think it was "Compelling" and I didn't have as much fun as everybody else did. To me, it was just okay! But I hope this means we'll get Luigi's Mansion in my lifetime.

Or it was Nintendo running a tight ship.

@@aaroncarroll2417 Y’all get so triggered over a Mario movie being a Mario movie smh.

Agreed

But also a good villain who's both a threatening figure and just funny as hell!😂

The Koopa troopers were surprisingly threatening. Especially the purple shell one. Bowser wins up until the end. He's silly and funny, but he wins through like 80-90% of the movie

@@clanwaddell5628 blue shell, not purple.

@@cadendicky1855 my bad, at work and taking a break. That was still an awesome scene.

People love Mario, it is a multigenerational IP - kids, parents and even grandparents all remember playing/watching someone play it. and they when they saw it’s like the games but translated onto the big screen, the word of mouth gets picked up and spread around like wildfire. It has an strong A CinemaScore, and the PostTrak scores were 94% recommended if I recall. It also helped that it had the entire month of April to itself; basically it speedran to 1 billion dollars in exactly a month. A perfect storm some would say!

Cause it's Mario

Its plot was legitimately on par with the emoji movie, with the massive added benefit of weaponized "I kNoW wHaT tHaT iS!" to great effect

@@DadShark no??

@@DadShark Now that’s going too far.

Personally, I didn’t feel disrespected or talked down to by the Mario movie, which is a lot more than I can say for most shit coming out today.

@@DadSharkchill

Too bad we barely see it since they're separated in the beginning.

It doesn't really do it that well

A lot of people complained that the story of the Super Mario Bros Movie is very paper-thin and very barebones, and sure it's a valid and fair point. But this was Nintendo's second attempt at a movie in 33 years, so course they had to play things safe. Maybe the sequel will have a much greater and compelling plot, who knows.

The way Brian Tyler managed to remix many of the iconic Mario and Donkey Kong tunes made me wish the Sonic movies were able to use more of its game tracks. I don't remember if either Sonic movies had some of the classic tunes, I think an excerpt from Green Hills was in the first one, but from what I know I think the rights for the Sonic music tracks are kind of all over the place, not to mention that SEGA isn't as involved in the production as Nintendo were with Universal

@@pablocasas5906 For the most part, the soundtrack for the Genesis Editions of _Sonic the Hedgehog_ and _Sonic the Hedgehog 2_ were composed by Masato Nakamura of Dreams Come True, so SEGA has to pay royalties just to use songs like Green Hill or Chemical Plant. A few songs in _Sonic the Hedgehog 3_ like the final versions of Carnival Night, Ice Cap, and Launch Base were composed by the late Michael Jackson. I sure hope by 2024, general audiences can warm up to the soundtracks of the 3D games like _Sonic Adventure_ and the newly-released _Sonic Frontiers._ (Especially with songs from _Sonic Frontiers_ such as I'm Here and Undefeatable gaining meme status.) Now that I'm thinking about it, _Sonic Prime_ does seem to feel as if it also uses the Hollywood cheat codes that _The Super Mario Bros. Movie_ also uses.

Fun Fact: The non-Mario songs were originally placeholders when the movie was being storyboarded. They just wanted songs which fit the energy of the scene. But Shigeru Miyamoto liked the songs so much that they decided to keep them. This actually frustrated composer Brian Tyler who actually finished composing the Mario songs that were supposed to be in the final version. He failed to convince Shigeru Miyamoto to use the Mario music, except for the 'star theme' in the final fight (which originally had Jump by Van Halen).

@@billybob7135 there was also the part where Mario and DK are heading to the wedding and you have the classic Mario theme but remixed

The Mario IP has scary levels of cross-generational appeal. Its cultural dominance is near unrivaled.

You have no idea the kind of wonders that are out there. Look for "DK Rhapsody"

Well theres only is 3... one a anime no one knows and the other a terrible live action one

⁠​⁠@@ZeroJump five, technically. I just don’t think Nintendo will officially release them.

@Elijah-bv2mydisagree with you 100%. It’s as good as puss and boots: the last wish

That's right, it's good to have the first official movie play it safe, because this movie introduces the main characters of the continuing story. The sequels should be more involved.

Horrible

They still needed to do something with Mario that made sure that everyone thought, "Yeah, this is a Mario movie!!!" while carrying through the entire film. Imo, that's where the cheat codes come in, making a story that brings as much Mario into the plot, while ensuring the audience's stay engaged until the end.

@@BluePieNinjaTV I get that but it's not the plot but the lack of developing it that's the problem. One prime example is the tacked on "family's approval" theme for example. The only reason the final battle happens in Brooklyn is so Mario and Luigi's family can see the fight and be proud of them but...why? Sure, they can be proud of them beating the baddie but Bowser did not terrorize Brooklyn to a point to be a threat to people and what does beating Bowser have to do with proving they can handle living their dreams of being a plumber over leaving their stable job? What does this do for the theme, their conflict? Nothing, they are not related. This works how they did it but it's super disconnected. For a theme that works with Mario and Luigi the best was the "we're stronger together" theme but...they never build on it in a way that has them earn that final moment against Bowser. At least, successfully imo We never see Luigi and Mario struggle alone being apart in the Mushroom Kingdom. We see Luigi get caught and have a quick flashback showing us their dynamic in a minute or two instead of showing us through present day. How much more interesting would it be if Luigi had maybe 10-15 more minutes of screentime running from the baddies and realizing without Mario there to save him he can't handle but then he hates that about himself. (which builds up to the part where he blocks Bowser's fire at the end to show Mario he can save him too). Luigi is severely underused in this movie and I have no clue why when the theme is "we're stronger together". I'm not saying he can;t be caught but him running away for a bit would've been cool. They pay homage to Luigi's Mansion with atmosphere, how cool would it have been if he found an abandoned place to hide and spent some time running from baddies until he eventually gets caught. show us Luigi's struggle without Mario and how without Mario so when they reunite it's amazing. Also, Mario talks about saving Luigi but his struggles to get there are less "Luigi's not here" and more "I have no clue what I'm doing". His struggles do not feel directly connected to "I need Luigi here". He never even questions himself in the Mushroom Kingdom. If he had a point where he could reflect that he's not always that cool, stronger older brother there to save his little bro it's be internal struggles he desperately needed to make the theme work. Make Mario outside his element matter to not just the journey but him as a character. Same with the theme of Mario "dragging Luigi down". Yes, Mario is at fault for why they end up where they are but we never see Mario struggle with that realization. We never see Mario even acknowledge it. Never "If I didn't insist we fix that flood he'd never have been caught." We don't even see him feel guilt about it so when they reunite it feel more hollow because you don't get a sense he learned anything. The plot is not the problem, the lack of thought, cohesiveness and development is the problem. The "heart" is missing because they did not present anything to convey it. Every thing in the movie feels taped together opposed to woven together to fit each other. I still love the movie but as a film (ignoring the Mario theme) it's severely flawed. The cheat code is it's Mario and it references Mario. It only works because it's Mario. If this was just an Illumination film people would be ripping it apart. To say the audience, even the targeted audiences, can not stay engaged for a little bit of talking is insane imo We have very successful animated movies targeted for kids that have what the Mario Bros movie is missing and still keep people engaged. That is Disney/Pixar's entire thing and their movies do just fine for kids and adults alike. Even the adaptions before Mario (Detective Pikachu, Sonic 1 and 2; all targeted for kids) still have moments the Mario movie lacks and they are still engaged. I think that is a very thin excuse. We can love the Mario movie as flawed as it is but to ignore the flaws will not do it justice.

I grew up with the series since MARIO BROS. (no Super). Didn't enjoy the movie cause it sucked as a movie. Easter eggs and references doesn't make for a good movie, unless it's woven into an engaging story like Chip and Dale, Sonic 2, Detective Pikachu, maybe the recent Scream, and others. And the voice acting was not amazing. Peach, DK, Luigi al used the actor's normal voices. There's also Cranky Kong. Mario is decent, and I guess the rest are fine. Anyways :/

@@windy3935 I did enjoy the movie and have an extensive history with the games, however, I agree and this movie as a movie is not good lol This is my point, it's flawed af but I don't think anything is wrong with enjoying it as such but it's when people are deciding to ignore those flaws or saying they are not there that's a little irksome. I agree, the movie is overly referenced which I didn't mind in some places in some ways but some references were too much (the Princess in the other castle one was too forced, I cringed). I have no experience with any of the voice actors work save for Jack Black and Pratt because Gaurdians of the Galaxy vol 1 (never seen what the other people are from to make them famous tbh) and I think they were good. If no one else Jack Black did a great job as Bowser and I liked that voice for Luigi and Keagan Micheal-Key for Toad worked well imo. Seth Rogan as this version of DK works fine too. I do still wish they gave Martinet the role as Mario (his promised cameo was weak af) but Pratt's performance was fine. Not great but not as bad as the first trailers. I see why people love the movie but I agree that judging it as a movie (and not a Mario/video game adaption movie) it's severely flawed. This is why Filmento's video surprised me. Of all the reviewers I thought he'd mention the issues but I still think his and all who enjoy it have valid views too. Still, this movie did not cheat code success, it is successful because it's one of the most recognizable IPs ever and Nintendo was smart enough to monitor the entire process. Besides that it is formulaic which is not bad but it doesn't even do the formulas it utilizing effectively imo. The plot is fine but the movie feels like a first draft, needed more time to be fleshed out better.

@@midnightjay They ended up here on accident and it's a cool fight. That really is not not a good complaint, let us move on. Also the whole Plumber schitck wad to find a better profession than the one they had before, it makes sense for them to beat up the bad guy in the very home that shunned and disrespected them. It serves the purpose. The rest is you making stuff up that makes zero sense. They did struggle alone in the world they found themselves in and while separated, had to see and deal with a lot of issues all the while being apart, their worst moment in life. Also Luigi is a coward and does not like fighting, I mean he didn't even fought against Francis, they just tried to keep distance from him. The rest is just nonsense that shows that you came with a very biased view on the movie and shows that you did not even watched the movie really, because all what you said here, has been shown here, like Mario and Luigi developing as characters and the rest.

I cant really enjoy the movie.. because too much plot armor for the main character

@@ZValkorion It's mario. This is the same dude who can lift a big creature twice his size by the tail and throw him. He deserves plot armor.

@@CyberAtlasX1 and i didnt enjoy that... Sonic is far better

@zivenbr okay well im just saying it makes sense from a character perspective regardless of what you think

​@@ZValkorion what you think doesnt matter

There has been no such announcement, quite the opposite, it has been officially denied to be planned at all.

It's a Mario movie, of course it would have a simple story. What did you expect?

They didn't announce any Zelda movie. It's not a good idea to believe every rumor.

There is nothing wrong with a simple story.

@@ELTABULLOthat’s probably just Nintendo being Nintendo but I wouldn’t doubt if this made them consider more movies, they got a huge library after all

1:36

I would say Sonic 2 is better than the Mario movie, at least of terms of narrative, but both Sonic movies sometimes feel like the typical CGI character interacting with humans like The Smurfs, Garfield or Alvin & the Chipmunks. Mario embraces it's videogame roots like no other video game movie did it before, I'm not counting TV shows those usually played out better, save for Halo. Particularly, while I liked Sonic 2 the wedding subplot was totally unnecessary in my opinion and only made want to see more scenes with Sonic, Tails and Knuckles. If Paramount decides to reboot the Sonic film after the third movie they should make an animated movie

​​@@pablocasas5906To be honest, I wasn't entirely bothered by that whole wedding subplot at first because before that moment when the movie ultimately transcend to a generic romantic comedy featuring the character of Rachel and her fiancée: Randell, the stuff in Hawaii were only two scenes that each lasted about a minute a piece while the majority was still on Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Robotnik. It was when that moment of Sonic and Tails being captured by the G.U.N. Unit, the focus shifted entirely on Maddie and especially her sister Rachel, and that was when the movie loses me, but to give it credit, despite my grievance with that scene altogether, once that whole Hawaii subplot was resolved, they never cut back to it and the focus re-shifted primarily on our main players (no pun intended) throughout the remaining runtime. I just only hope that we will never get to see Rachel and Randell again moving forward.

I would DIE see a live-action Metroid movie adaptation. And it *has* to be rated PG-13, please Nintendo?

Those movies would suck ass. If he was half as good at making movies as he thinks he is at critiquing them, then he would already be working in that line of work. RU-vid is where all the posers and phonies go for internet clout because they couldn’t cut it at the real thing.

Heightcel

Could that be considered as a cheat code?? lmao

Unfortunately, several popular songs like Take On Me and Holding Out For A Hero were crammed in there along with the movie’s original score.

That's a reason. Definitely not the only one.

Curiously enough, both movies complement themselves in their flaws, one is too far from the source material while the other doesn't explains you why things are that way

Sonic movie isn't a cartoon, it's suppose to be grounded but it slowly builds up to it's world.
