  1. This is a repeat of what happened with the first movie! As long as I hear gusty garden galaxy in the background, it will be a 10/10 for me.

    1. It looks like a mix of Odyssey and Galaxy. Honestly did not like the first movie not comimg back for 2 but yeah feels like it will break 1 billion again.

  2. Well I don’t care what you say metacritic and rotton tomatoes, I’m gona watch this movie with my daughter and we’re gona love it. Period!

    Oh yeah, and just a reminder of the backlash the previous movie had when reviews dropped, and then it turned out to be a record breaking sell out like frozen

    1. Why are you torturing a child? If you actually have one that is. Kids don’t want to go to movies and if they did it would be for Minecraft not boomer Disney crap or this retard movie.

    2. “I’m all for forming your own opinion, but the “and we’re going to love it” is quite odd. Pre-formed, self-imposed opinions on something you haven’t seen yet isn’t healthy.

      I’ll admit that I felt like the old curmudgeon in the audience for being in underwhelmed by the first film.

  3. Wow, that is truly awful haha. Even worse than the original. But as ever, this one is really for the fans, so viewer reception will be more important.

  4. Yeah because it’s trash and so was the first one not a great movie. The box office however that will be different. Who knows maybe it underperforms?

    1. Rotten Tomatoes doesn’t have an opinion, Anon. It’s an aggregate score of all professional reviews, with a second aggregate score for all amateur reviews. It’s just a tool for painting a picture of overall public sentiment of each film.

  5. “Metacritic”
    “Rotten Tomatoes”

    The two least trustworthy sources you could ever have. Everyone knows that Metacritic has absolutely no management whatsoever and RT only care about live-actions.

    1. Not always true. The first movie was trash the writing was bad, voice actors outside Key, Kevin Michael Richardson, and Jack Black were horrible especially Seth Rogen and Peach is a girl boss while Mario is just bad until he isn’t then all of a sudden saves Luigi who’s in Peach’s place of captive. Reminder the writers/directors of the movie and this one too are the creators of Teen Titans GO! Makes sense why it’s bad.

  6. Im gonna be honest, I really dont like movies I always found them to be mostly bloated with clichés to fill whatever run time they have, I haven’t enjoyed a movie since I was 8 I just watch the mario movies for Mario and the characters, I do feel bad for people expecting this movie to have some decent pacing maybe next movie.

    1. I didn’t really like the first movie and felt like they could’ve done a lot better. My main gripe was that a bunch of stuff like the karts were shoehorned in the movie just to advertise attractions at the Universal park, and apparently Galaxy is doubling down on the references. The first movie actually deserved its rating imo, and I can’t speak for the second but I don’t really have a desire to see it since the issues I had with the first have just been made worse by what everyone else is saying.

  7. Sonic movies are better, better humor for adults too!
    Notice how fast Nintendo rushed out a new Mario movie after Sonic.

    I hope sexy Blaze and Rouge is in the the 5th Sonic movie 😁

      1. Yeah no Sonic is actually good outside 3 but Mario movie was from the creators of TTG the kings of cringe.

  8. All movie critics do is complain and nitpick; sometimes it’s good to just take it for what it is. For a video game movie; it looks really good!

  9. Was anyone expecting this to be a cinematic masterpiece? Everyone in these comments is so pressed hahaha. It’s a movie for 6 year olds guys come on

    1. No it’s not. 6 year olds like Minecraft, Roblox, and maybe Fortnite outside that maybe social media not this. This stuff is super boomer and written by idiots. The creators of TTG write the script.

    1. Both movies sucked and will suck. Mario movie was bad and so was Sonic 3 I expect the sequels to be trash even worse.

  10. Mario movies were trash hopefully this tanks first one was awful but sold like crazy. Movies are just a thing of the past going to a theater to see one I never got the point of it the enjoyment it just seems inconvenient. Streaming just better and anime even more so.

    1. Idiot, PICK A NAME WHEN SPAMMING!! This is the third time today. At least I know your a creep since you stream anime.

  11. As someone, who grew up and loved Nintendo for a long time, this is not surprising me. They do the same misrake as in the first movie. No story, a lot of cameos and dumb humor, ss if people are unsble to write good movies anymore. Slowly but surely the first Mario movie looks better than these two movies, hell… even the japanese animation that came earlier than Hollywood. But once again, people simply turn into zombies and only see the funny colors instead the slop. No surprise there.

  12. I have followed this channel for many years I think since I was in middle school and now I am a grown a** adult and still here lol. I love it but recently I have disliked all the potential spoilers.

  13. I’m going to watch this movie soon. It will be a middle finger to Grace Randolph, who also accused a man of faking Tourette syndrome.

  14. I remember that the mario movie got a really high audience score, but a low critic score. It’s probally going to be the same here. I am going to try to avoid going on this website for spoilers because I don’t see the movie until later tomorrow. But I am so excited, These movies are just fun to watch.

  15. The Mario Bros movie is fun. It’s not a great movie. It’s arguably not a good movie. But it is fun and a mostly faithful adaptation of the IP. This looks like the same situation. The reality is Illumination doesn’t even know how to make great movies. shrugs

  16. Just saw Galaxy. Was largely an improvement over the first movie. Not much to complain about if you ask me.

    1. Just saw it, it is such a big improvement. Spoiler: I Loved the rob reference with how slow he moved, it’s so accurate!
