In Super Mario Galaxy, a species of stars called Lumas made their debut. They are normally yellow in color, but the blue one that was in prison is called a Lumalee. It's said that when Lumalees are at the end of their life, they create a brand new galaxy. Which explains why that particular Lumalee was talking so much about death lol

[@AndreMoore1978]

The cat suit first appeared in Mario 3D World. Many of the references, particularly the wedding, came from Odyssey. The music Bower was rocking out to came from Bowser's Fury.

[@bemasaberwyn55]

They really cover refrences from Donkey Kong to Mario Odyssey

[@PianistTanooki]

The original “Wahoo” voice actor, as you put it, did indeed voice that cameo role in the beginning. He also voiced Mario’s dad.

[@disneyfan9134]

3:52-3:56 To answer your question, that IS Charles Martinet aka the voice of Mario, Luigi, Wario and Waluigi in the video games, doing the voice of the guy who says “too much, it’s-a perfect! Wha-hoo!” He also does the voice of Mario and Luigi’s father in this movie at 6:48-6:54. Just a little trivia for u. 😉 13:54 “Doesn’t she hate you?” 😂😂😂. Is it me or does that dude sound an awful lot like Marvin the Martian?

[@Thestr8noodle]

The blue character is Lumalee from Super Mario Galaxy, which is tied to Rosalina. The catsuit is from Super Mario 3D World. Got tickets for the whole family to see it on opening night, and it was a great movie, then went to see it 4 more times.

[@RetroLiminal99444]

Yes this movie has references to modern Mario games however the last big Mario game was 6-7 years ago so that stuff is nostalgic now. So what’s really cool is that every fan both old and young can all feel nostalgic for this movie. Also Now people want to be Luigi, well mostly because he has his own games but only 3 main games.

[@Rubberman202]

3:56 - Charles Martinet, the original voice of Mario (as well as Luigi, Wario, Waluigi, etc.), did indeed voice the "wahoo" guy (whose name is apparently Giuseppe). He also did the voice of Mario and Luigi's dad, which I thought was incredibly cute and fitting. 17:20 - That character is Lumalee from the Super Mario Galaxy games from 2007-2010. He would give Mario (or Luigi) items in exchange for Star Bits. Completely different personality compared to this movie, though. 19:17 - That is the Mini Mushroom, it debuted in New Super Mario Bros from 2006. It makes Mario tiny, but honestly has very limited uses besides that. Thankfully, getting hit doesn't instantly kill Mario like it does in the game. 19:30 - I love that people who didn't already know that Donkey Kong is played by Seth Rogen put it together once they hear his laugh! XD 19:53-19:57 - That initial reaction to the realization that Mario is not, in fact, wearing the Raccoon Suit or the Tanooki Suit was too hilarious. And yes, there IS a Cat Suit, it was introduced in Super Mario 3D World from 2013. 26:06 - I would have thought someone so hyped to see Raccoon/Tanooki Mario would instantly recognize the Super Leaf, but then again, it does go by pretty quickly. 29:32 - Actually, you can play with multiple players at once as of New Super Mario Bros. Wii from 2009. I think you can touch other players who are invincible to become invincible yourself in that game. One final thing that I love pointing out to people: that guy who bullies Mario and Luigi at the beginning of the movie who shows up again during the climax and leads the crowd in cheering for the Super Mario Brothers? His name is Foreman Spike, he appeared in the NES game Wrecking Crew from 1985, where he was Mario and Luigi's mean boss who'd constantly try to mess them up, as well as compete against them in bonus stages. The fact that he's here in this movie is a deep dig, since even most hardcore Mario fans don't even know about him. And that's what I love about this movie, that it embodies the entire history of Mario, both the old and the new, obscure and infamous. It truly is a love letter to Mario fans, and it shows. I'm glad audiences really connected with this movie, and I look forward to any sequels and spin-offs that come out of it.

Charles Martinet is not Mario's "original" voice actor, Mario previously had a Brooklyn accent in an old cartoon before Charles stereotypical squeaky voice ever came into the picture, if you want to talk about "original" voice actor for Mario the guy that voices Optimus prime was the first guy that ever voiced Mario in an even older cartoon. Charles martinet came way later

[@Rubberman202]

@@calvinospina7307 I meant "original voice" as in the voice from the games. You are right that Peter Cullen, the voice of Optimus Prime, was the first English voice of Mario, voicing him in the Donkey Kong segments of Saturday Supercade.

[@OptmiusPrime114]

The Cat Mario suit is one of the power-ups in the games.

[@FlixTalk]

Yeah that's way after I stopped playing lol

[@madnessarcade7447]

@@FlixTalk maybe you should unstop lol

[@ricardoortiz4870]

14:33 Fun Fact: Baby Mario and Baby Luigi are by far the most accurate depictions of their video game counterparts.

[@colewarnerreviews5834]

Coming from someone who is a fan of the older and newer games, I liked this movie.

[@fernandodelgado4329]

To me the critics don't even understand the whole Mario universe especially The Super Mario Brothers and the other fun supporting characters, The plot story may not be fun for the critics but to all of us Mario fans, We enjoyed it especially when we and still play the games so screw the critics and fantastic reaction my friend.

[@FlixTalk]

I appreciate it! Thank you so much for watching

[@christinehorror8178]

This movie was great! My sister, niece and i have been playing mario bros games for 35+ years. It just made us happy and we cant wait for more! I didnt get the later references but still loved it.. the credits suck lol and we all do not hate the voice acting we had no issues..

[@jaredb7004]

The cat power up is from Super Mario 3D World for WiiU and Switch.

[@canadianscratcher7834]

The opening and arrival of Bowser's ship has theme from the game Super Mario Bros 3.

[@CaseyNoK]

The Cat Suit power up is in fact a real power up in the Mario games. It made its first appearance in Super Mario 3D World on the Nintendo WiiU as well as the remastered version on the Nintendo Switch game. Great game by the way, give it a play sometime.

[@otakuwolf4ever985]

The "suicidal star" is from Rosalina's kingdom.

[@jonathantyner171]

The Super Mario Bros. Movie 2 is coming.

[@canadianscratcher7834]

The cat power up is from Mario 3D for the DS.

[@thepizzaturtle7918]

The dog from Up is Doug, the dog in this movie is Francis. (Did I spell that right?)

[@sasamichan]

Blue mushrooms were in the DS and 3DS games and Cat is from 3D World on Wii U / Switch

[@FlixTalk]

Ahhh that's why I have no clue about them
