Despicable Me studio to helm Super Mario movie project

IMG_6617.JPG

As for the final announcement from Nintendo's financial investor briefing, the company has revealed that there will be a new movie starring their mascot character, Mario. Nintendo also confirmed an animation studio for this upcoming Super Mario movie; Illumination Entertainment, the studio behind the Despicable Me series. Only two staff for the film are known at this time, which are the two co-producers, Shigeru Miyamoto and Illumination's Chris Meledandri. Meledandri has produced films like Ice Age, The Secret Life of Pets, and Despicable Me. There's no current release date for the movie yet, but the earliest it can release is in the year 2021.

the original mario movie is still enjoyable to me to this day, they could have done better but I think it's fun
but I dont get your reference about land of the dead, what has that got to do with mario?
Same haha, I always thought I was the only one who enjoyed that movie

But it was very different from the games, I think it's still fun and that it isn't really a bad thing but I can understand why some people were disappointed by that movie back in the day

this is going to be the safest movie ever. Their movies aren't terrible, but they're nowhere near the best. but since the minion movie is one of the highest grossing films of all time (yes, seriously), i can see why they went with them. it's safe. safe safe safe. which will mean it'll be inoffensive, boring, with a chuckle or two, but ultimately forgettable.

I think you actually mean it will be one of those movies that daily make you lose faith in humanity and wake your desire to hack into NORAD to initiate the nuclear winter.

If this movie is good, then Nintendo will take my wallet.
If they don't I'll shove it down their throat.
Yeah.
...
Wait 'till the trailers for the Sonic Movie and the Mario Movie come out.
That's gonna be one hell of a shitstorm.

I thought the Despicable Me movies were alright. Minions were watchable. I'm sure most people are just tired of the Minions,rather thinking it is the worse movie ever. I don't blame them. It is shame that the main villain was stuck in the Minions movie.

It COULD be good. I'm remaining optimistic, but at the same time I'm not going to worry too much about it until it comes out
Imagine if this did good enough to spinoff into a Nintendo Cinematic/SSB Universe.
