The Big Picture: Do the Mario! (Again)

[Darknacht]

Considering the work of Gainax I can only hope these people usually aren't sober.

You should watch Paranoia Agent and Paprika... there's no way those were made by sober people.

Episode 25 and 26 of Evangelion...

they didn't run out of budget... they spent it all on military grade PCP.

Does any one else think that the idea of 'military grade PCP' is terrifying.

So Mario was a victim of NTR?

oh that freaking sucks

I know it wasn't inculded in the clip, but is this the same movie where mario is born from a peach floating down the river?
If anyone can answer me I'd appreciate it.

That's probably the one where Mario is Momotaro. There were like 2-3 fairy tale OVAs starring Mario. (According to the inter-net, the others were Snow White starring Peach and a Thumbelina-type Japanese fairy tale.)

EDIT: According also to the Inter-net, Kibidango is a dumpling. Momotaro was all about peaches and kibidangos. Maybe Mario really has been Momotaro all this time.

Hey Bob, can we expect a Big Picture episode about these nutjob apocalyptic predictions next Tuesday?

i know this may annoy you to death by now for me saying it, sir. but could you inlightin of how come the girl in mario being kepnapted always seem to be the same plot for the past 25 years? and will thay ever get to amit that prineses was really having a relationship with bowser?

its been a thought for many fans now on if she been going out with bowser instead of mario.

otherwise i would say if thairs any hope of nintendo making prinesses a more 3 dimentonal character. it feels like thay haven't updated the story and the prinesses for years now.
and since with all new mario games out now it should be no reson why thay haven't yet.



any questions let me know and my apolages for the poor grammer alittle.

thank you for reading

Thanks for giving an over view of this Bob! I had found this anime forever ago and was interested to watch it. I was just getting into anime and a huge Nintendo fan. However, the fatal glitch, I don't know a word of Japanese and so it had been forgotten, until now. So thank you for satisfying my nerdy curiosity!

Oh and Keep up the great episodes! I love watching both the Big Picture and your Movie channel!

Man...first time in my life I've heard of this...prince guy (At first I swore it was another princess for Luigi or something) and I already hate him. They don't even make a cute couple! Geez, if I felt bad before for Mario who goes around chasing after the princess world after world, year after year, now I feel way worse.
The anime looks okay. I mean, the plot seems to make a lot more sense than the US cartoon. It was also better animated and the characters didn't look as anime-like as you'd expect (Huge eyes, weird body shapes, perfect hair, etc).
Yeah, the movie was waaaay worse. So...I'm just glad Mario and company are sticking to video games nowadays.

Huh, may have stop by Akihabara this weekend and see if any of the shops carry it.

It seems Mario has suffered the same fate Mickey Mouse has over the years, going from interesting, flawed, and somewhat deranged characters to standard run of the mill protagonists. I have to say I like this Luigi a lot more than standard Luigi (though maybe not as much as TWBB Luigi).

Can someone tell me why people hate the live-action Super Mario Bros. movie? I was a kid when I saw it and I thought it was pretty good!
