  1. Predictable, after they announced the creation of this division.

    OK, now please move away from Illumination.

    Super hornio brothers reboot when

  4. KeepItMovingFolks

    I’d be surprised if they didn’t make a starfox movie

    Are they going to continue to work with Illumination Studios? It’s one thing to want to try it on your own and another thing entirely to say fuck the studio that helped make this movie such a success.

    My hope is that we get separate stand-alone movies for each of Nintendo’s franchises with a Pikmin short before each one.

    I noticed quite a few comments about how much people disliked Mario and want something deeper and to that I say don’t hold your breath. My experience with the Mario movie was a lot of fun because me and my family took my brothers youngest to go see it and she loved it and kept screaming Mario in the exciting scenes. The plot was basic but this is Mario we are talking about, not exactly known for deep character or complex plots.

    I expect the tone of the Mario movies to stay the same. When we get Zelda it might be a bit deeper but it’s very possible Nintendo will repeat the formula given the huge financial success.

    Overall my point is I don’t think Nintendo is trying to build an MCU like shared universe aimed at its older fans but just making fun movies for kids to promote their brand and make buckets of money.

    After your movie makes a billion dollar it only makes sense to go in house, gotta make as much money yourself

    ITT: A bunch of armchair producers that think they could have made a more successful kids movie.

    I would love an F-Zero or Metriod movie at some point

    Thus the NintendoVerse was born.

    Expect many more movies to come.

    I hope they dont fill the movies with songs that take you out of the movie. Replacing “driving me bananas” with “take on me” was a poor decision.

    I still can’t believe they had that post credits scene with Princess Lana. “Mario, we need to talk to you about… the Captain N Initiative.”

    Best way to protect their IP, well done Nintendo.

    How long before there’s an entirely overdone Mario Universe where Phase III has an Ice Climber’s origin story and a standalone Goombella series on N+?

    Nintendo: I don’t want to play with you anymore.

    _Drops Illumination._

    I’m starting to think that the Smash Bros iniciative meme is closer to reality than I initially thought

    Only ghibli or some animation studio that mainstream audiences have never heard of should make zelda. Make it only for anime fans and fuck older casual players who want something more broadly appealing. If it’s live action hire Peter jackson because he already did lord of the rings and he’s 62 and he might not play video games. The hobbit movies were also great. Weve never heard of directors under the age of 45. Cast tom holland or some reddit darling who’s 10 years too old to play link. Dont cast an unknown actor in his early 20s. We need a manly man playing link. Why not henry cavill. Link is a 40 year old on steroids right? Cast someone in stuff i like not whos right for the part. Or go with laika. They’ve never had a box office hit. That’s perfect we want our zelda movie to only appeal to a niche online crowd. We want a movie only animation twitter will watch. Please nintendo don’t listen to these people.

    Can’t wait for them to do a comic style intro with Mario characters
