Mario and Nintendo are huge here in Mexico.
Just in U.S.?? Dang. Movie is fine, I liked it, but it feels cluddered with a ton of mario stuff.
That’s the whole point of the Mario movie. It’s why Shigeru Miyamoto kept an eye on the films to keep the film about Mario and Mario related stuff.
Thats a weird thing to say when fox is in the movie
It’s about Peach and her sister. The first one had awful Rogen Donkey Kong in it and this one has Fox and a bunch of other cameos. Watch it get worse with Daisy in 3 who seems worse than Peach.
You know that I can tell you are just one person right? Your comments all say the same thing. Pick better names then Jfoh if you are going to comment.
Who are you talking to? One comment there not multiple?
No, theres just one comment in this article, but he has other comments in previous articles.
Get help you middle aged loser if you think you’re talking to the same person and worse feeling some false sense of self validation behaving like this then you are seriously in need in help. Just because a username or disagreement you assume this must be 1 person because the rest you all have a hivemind, half of you here act like that. Go step out your moms basement and tell her to get you the proper meds for your mental condition schizo or better yet put you in the mental house.
Sup king, nice to see you again.
Meanwhile the actors apparently support Luigi Mangione. What is wrong with these people? They said it in an interview promoting the film. More reason to pass on this. Nintendo needs to get their shit together.
I don’t blame them I blame IGN and the studio not getting the questions.
Frost64. I’ve read some idiotic comments in my time but this one takes the cake. Cluddered isn’t even a word.
Whoops, thanks for pointing that out.
This seems low. I mean normally it cools down. Weekend will be a deciding factor if it doesn’t do big then there should be concern. Personally don’t like these movies and if it does somehow flop maybe the idiot directors/writers finally get blacklisted. They created Teen Titans Go!
This is really a big one right now.
If Mario doing this low can’t wait for the catastrophe that is Mortal Kombat 2 reminder the 2021 movie flopped but got a sequel. Street Fighter movie as well imagine how bad that will be. Movies just aren’t something most people especially under 40 want to go out and see. Why do that if you pay for streaming already also social media is free. I’d rather watch Tubi.
The Super Mario Galaxy movie is fire, already seen it in theaters and pre ordered the DVD.
Sounds like it made a profit no matter what the comments say. Given this is a side project for them… pretty sure any profit is good. Ridiculous numbers while pleasant are sorta nothing when costs are covered and your revenue comes from elsewhere
The movie was dreadful; absolutely horrible.
$122 million worldwide. It’s doing fine. Film cost $110 million.
