Social The Social Thread 3.2.2 - Switch 2 Hype Time!

[Lamperouge]

Anyhow, even as a Sonic fan, I liked this Mario movie more than Sonic movies 1 and 2...combined. So that is saying something, is it not?

Even as a big fan of the series myself, I thought Sonic 2 was pretty ass.

Never will understand what people see in it.

Even as a person who loved Sonic the Movie 2, I can kinda see where you are coming from.

So I can't say that I blame you.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

No. They came out of her cloaca.

Boy, if you dont.

 

[TheMightyP]

I will say I prefered Mario over Sonic 1. I think Sonic 2 may have it beat but I'm skipping over the human scenes whem I say this.

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

This is an understatment probably but I am VERY excited to see this Mario movie

 

[Z25]

Some numbers in terms of Mario movies numbers:

1993 Movie
Budget: $48 Million
Box Office: $38.9 Million

2023 Movie
Budget: $100 Million
Day 1 Box Office: $31.7 Million

We're definitely on a good track right now!

actually the numbers are crazier than that:

‘THE SUPER MARIO BROS MOVIE’ earns $67M in the film’s worldwide opening day.

That billion is guaranteed.

Also I feel this basically gurantees that Zelda, Splatoon, Kirby, Metroid, Fire Emblem and Even Animal crossing will now be strong contenders for movies or shows going forward.

Having a movie for different genres just screams easy success. I can easily see Nintendo look at those top Selling games and go “Bing Bing Wahoooo!”

Also Luigi’s mansion and DK movie for sure happening.

I wonder if they'd ever go for something live action for some of those choices.

Yo

Would you be cool if I drew that black and white girl from from your comic?

Yeah! I'm so sorry for the late response, I took a break from the site to avoid Mario movie spoilers.

On that note, IT WAS AMAZING. Here's a picture I took at the theatre!

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Weird ape son? Does that mean you're Cranky now?

Spoiler: Mario movie

In the climatic scene of the movie, there's a very short moment where Bowser sounds just like his game actor.

I got to meet Bowser's game actor (Kenny James) in 2021 and he said at the time he wasn't contacted about the movie.

So I want to know is did Kenny James actually get to do it or did Nintendo just grab a clip from the sound library?

I still can't get over how Lois Lane looks like Luz as an adult.

Metroid could work, so would fire emblem, and maybe splatoon. The rest would look cursed in live action lol

If I had to guess, they used recycled audio since it's FAR more cost and time efficient.

Cool cool cool

Here you go!

Live action Splatoon is... kinda inspired I can't lie. But idk how much I would trust the tentacle hair to look good.

 

[Z25]

Also I’m watching the final attack on Titan season right now.

They should all be singing the campfire song in this episode. Would really air out the room lol.

probably could look good with the right cgi. I think the set designs and color contrasts could make it really stand out in live action if they did it.

 

[Hex D. Jess]

Splatoon should be animated what are you guys on

 

[Dan Quixote]

Splatoon should be animated what are you guys on

I'd agree but only if it means 3D animation. 2D Splatoon just doesn't feel like the vibe. But also the squid kid designs can be so cool, that I think real humans could look good.

 

[Noipoi]

Dreamworks presents

Spoiler: Splatoon

 

[SuperSonicFlyer]

Weed.

I do agree it should be animated though. How exactly would a live-action Splatoon movie work, anyway?

 

[TheMightyP]

With a camera

 

[Noipoi]

It'd be hard to do the "Funny CGI character interacts with humans" when all the humans are canonically extinct.

 

[SuperSonicFlyer]

I am just saying, I do not personally think Splatoon would work well in live-action as well as it would as an animated film.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Splatoon should be animated. Period.

All that we know of

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

All that we know of

Splatoon 4's twist will be that one human survived: Adam Sandler, who will be the star of the Splatoon movie.

 

[dezeray112]

To be fair chicken little totally warranted.

there’s no solid plot throughout and it switches genres half way.

Has one of the worst parents of all time. Hell even the town might be one of the worst in existence. Capitalizing off a child because they had nothing better do. When they hated him they went all in, then they “liked him” because it was the new trend and profited more.

Aliens have no purpose to the plot other than they needed a threat. Ending is rushed.

It’s just a mess all around.

Having watched Chicken Little for the first time on Disney+ a few months ago, I agree with all this as not only there is no solid story plot, the characters were uninteresting and unlikeable.

Adam Sandler Marina will make me act up

Splatoon seems like a good choice for a movie. After all, they already have a poster they can use:

Listen, animation probably works best…

But look at the Barbie movie. It’s like they bought those commercials to life.

Imagine a splatoon World with cgi Inklings that blend well with the art style from the games multiplayer, to octo expansion, or it’s other story modes.

Sort of like detective pikachu, but better mixing of the two.

Every aspect of the world would feel loved it and the apocalyptic future it takes place in, would work for live action. A commentary that it’s not entirely impossible that some of the events that shaped that world could happen irl.

You would need someone really inspired like Edgar Wright, but splatoon could go crazy as an animated or live action movie.

I think honestly, we don't need a live-action Splatoon if humans are extinct in the first place and everyone else is most likely not going to be people in costumes dressed as Inklings and Octolings, as I don't see the point of CGI Inklings and Octolings if humans are not around. That is in a way why I think animation is better.

 

[Pink Yoshi]

I just hope Illumination (or DreamWorks) is able to do the world of Splatoon justice

Cuz like...we all know how much of a dark nightmare world Splatoon is

Spoiler: Disgusting

In Octo Expansion you may or may not be getting covered in a stew of liquified corpses throughout

 

[SnakeFighter64]

I realized yesterday that we've been waiting for Rare Replay to be ported to either PC, Switch, or both for so long that we're close to the 40th anniversary. So now I'm imagining a 40th anniversary edition on additional platforms with 10 additional featured games. (Cause the first version was 30 games for the 30th anniversary).

 

[cashregister9]

For a Splatoon movie I think having real backgrounds (either actual footage of a city or elaborate miniatures) with hyper stylized 2D or 3D characters I feel could work.

Also Stop Motion Pikmin and Mother, I feel like that is the only way to do those series justice
