First off, we'd like to apologize for the delay of this episode. We'll do our best to prevent that from happening again in the future. Thank you for your patience.
On this week's episode, we plunge deep into the madness that is the live action Super Mario Bros movie, which was the very first ever video game film adaptation. Coincidentally right after our last episode, a fan restoration of the movie with 20 mins of deleted scenes made its way onto the internet which is the version we all watched. I guess the universe was in our favor of watching this underground cult hit.
This episode features special guest Julian aka Jules, the designated Nintendo boy in our friend group. He joins us on our journey to point and laugh at (and simultaneously praise) the insane liberties the directors and writers took with the source material. Is this film really as bad as people make it out to be or is there truly something unique and special about this once in a lifetime adaptation? Strap in folks because this is gonna be a long bumpy ride. This film truly fried our brains and as a result, this episode ended up being a bit of mess.
Next episode we will be discussing yet another beautiful & insane film called Face/Off (1997) with another special guest and friend of the show, Archie! That will truly be an episode you don't want to miss!
