[@rossohare4950]

When are guys gonna review Spider-Man Across The Spider-Verse

[@XtianSpyder12]

Hey guys did we missed you review for Across the SpiderVerse????

[@Misc_Anthony]

20:45 Fun Fact: The reason they chose the song "Take on Me" by A-Ha was because it was the number one song in the US when the NES was released in 1985. Now, that is a deep cut....

[@ScorpionStrike7]

Seeing this in theaters was one of the happiest times I’ve had this year so far. Major props to Illumination for putting everything into this movie

[@hamhockbeans]

1993 Super Marios Bros. Has now been cleansed out our minds.

[@ScorpionStrike7]

@@hamhockbeans It’s always going to be in the deepest, darkest, trenches of the human mind

[@BlackGirlMarvel]

Not just them, Nintendo & the Mario creators. They were all involved.

[@Velchat3]

bruh, I cried. All the memories of getting Mario games for Christmas, playing them all night with my brothers for 16 summers, the nostalgic sounds were just too much for me.

[@NicolleLaShane]

Lumalee's morbidly depressed self is my favorite character in this movie

[@alecLogan]

Is that morbidly depressed, or gleefully dour?

[@ScorpionStrike7]

Someone reminded me that Lumas are reborn as planets and galaxies when they die

[@marclewis5505]

​@@alecLogan I say the latter.

[@123mightywarrior]

He's what I call "the happiest depressed character in the world". 😂

[@GeeklyGoods]

LMAO for realllll

[@magicrealms2824]

Such a good movie. Bowser's piano singing was hilarious

[@rhodarodriguez6256]

That was bowsers best part in the movie playing the piano and singing peaches.

[@lifethings6737]

It was Jack black so of course it was hilarious 😆

[@dylanmorris7357]

This and Across the Spider-Verse are my favorite films of the year so far.

[@hamhockbeans]

Getting them both on Blueray as soon as they are released.

[@skyrushyesminderaserno1150]

Guardians Vol 3 as well

[@cyanado2697]

Hopefully blue beetle will not bomb…

[@ShockedTom]

​@@cyanado2697 yeah but trailer at least for me look like hot stinky 💩

[@hamhockbeans]

@@ShockedTom Sadly DC trailers don't lie on what you will get.

[@nintenmetro]

“Cle-cle-cua” (mushroom) and “tro-tro-tro” (warp pipe) are still two of my favorite sound effects of all time.

[@gjamespepe]

The Super Struggle Brothers !!!😂😂

[@rodgill9376]

Instant like for the outfits alone! Good shit on that y'all! This movie had pretty much everything I ever wanted. It was wholesome, fun and entertaining without being too serious and didn't have an agenda of any kind. The visuals and cinematography was awe inspiring. The character designs were amazing and the facial expressions was on point. Loved the cast of characters we got. What I also liked that it wasn't afraid to go dark when it needs to and its also somber at times too. One of the highlights for me was the musical score. Brain Tyler not only bought back the familiar sound effects from the games, but also created such a lush and bombastic orchestral music that puts a smile on my face. It reminded me of my childhood a bit. I think my only real issue with it was not seeing Luigi enough. Other than that, I think I want a cinematic universe with this now!

[@ELbabotas1]

It has the bad things other movies had, but this one did what one should, focus on the good ones

[@F0re5tMan]

Never played a Mario game in my life. Saw this in theaters, and I not only loved it, but I also now want to play some Mario games.

[@williamgmeniano5744]

Never too late start.

[@xavierstewart5756]

You are in for a treat. It’s never too late to educate yourself on playing some Mario games

[@JDSmith2030]

Well buckle up for a world full of fun. No pun intended. 😅

[@julianemery718]

If I could suggest some choices... 1. The Mario and Luigi series (Super Star Saga, Partners in Time, Luigi Dream Team, Bowser's Inside Story, Paper Jam) 2. Super Mario 64 3. Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 4. Super Mario Sunshine 5. Super Mario Odyssey 6. Luigi's Mansion series (1, 2 and 3)

[@F0re5tMan]

@@julianemery718 Thank you. I already planned on getting the Luigi's mansion games, so I'll definitely keep this list in mind.😁

[@tyvoneellis1290]

I loved that dog scene in theaters I was in tears

[@williamgmeniano5744]

Gave the bros a nod of respect in the end.

[@everforward5561]

The Luma's attitude makes more sense when you remember their entire life's purpose is to be created, live a short while, then create new galaxies when they die.

[@omnizenn4559]

Oof

[@alecrogers517]

Huh. Interesting.

[@christianschoff2490]

Seriously?! I skipped Galaxy.

[@hanezutchins2786]

Yup

[@HelenaSan425]

Chris pratt: It's a me Mario! 🍄

[@BlackGirlMarvel]

One of my favorite callbacks is "shes in another castle" 😂 I used to be pissed when id make it past a hard level & Peach aint at the castle 😂😒

[@to0muchtoan]

DK clowning on Mario, especially during the unexpected moments, had me cackling

[@FaysalIsGoated]

That movie was AMAZING. It’s exceeded all of my expectations. The references, the fight scenes, and the cameos were beautiful. If you’re a fan of Mario, or video games in general, you HAVE to see it. 17:30 Bowser singing made us die laughing in the theater😂 32:07 Mario and DK fighting together was fire 35:52 I legit had a tear when I heard first 9 notes of the star theme🥹

[@sullensoven]

Struggle Nation contributing positivity, happiness, and quality entertainment to all the nerds like me!!! Fuck yeah, I love you guys

[@andrewsanchez6493]

The "Peaches" song is fire!

[@ACinemafanatic]

Just the intro alone to the movie got me excited and a bit emotional with nostalgia this movie was such a treat to Mario fans

[@kariqdatmenace6642]

Universal studios and Illumination are already collaborating for a legend of zelda movie it's a rumor right now but considering how good the mario movie did it's gonna happen

[@RomanticWaltz]

Nah, your reactions to Peaches/Bowser's song represented me when I watched it for the first time in the theater with my best friend. 🤣🤣

[@GeeklyGoods]

It had be DEAD!!!!! LOL!

[@arielross749]

This reaction was hilarious and entertaining to watch. Also, I like the costumes.

[@antiwanbell9052]

The Blue Star was the funniest thing in the movie😂

[@kellymays5138]

Bowser received the legendary ass whooping.

[@123mightywarrior]

🎵 Peaches, Peaches, Peaches, Peaches, Peaches, Peaches, Peaches 🎵

[@Seviour86]

Awesome Mario and Luigi costumes guys 😂 Hilarious reaction! This movie if fire 🔥

[@georgenelawson9917]

That end credit scene is basically the ending of the American Godzilla movie lol. Yay can't wait for yoshi lol gonna be yoshi world lol

[@GeeklyGoods]

LMAO right?

[@annabanana7659]

Watched in the theater when it premiered in my country; half of the audience were kids with their families, the other half (that included myself and my bestie) are adult Super Mario and Nintendo fans who wanted a fun movie starring Mario and it delivered!

[@hamhockbeans]

The dog was from Duck Hunt.😅

[@KlevermoreReacts]

"Could you imagine if we did wear this to the theater? The chicks would have went crazy" "THATS WHAT I WANTED TO DO!"

[@nisaiahcampbell8390]

Such agility, Such balance, Such coordination and all while wearing a dress🤩15:00 - 15:02 - 15:21 and 15:30

[@solaprose5042]

Bowser's throat was about to leave his soul during that song ... lol

[@zombieboxeryt768]

Damn and the dog looking like the creeper from Jeepers Creepers 3 with that wide side eye. 😭😭😭😭💀💀💀💀💀

He’s the dog from Duck Hunt

My favorite part. Took me by surprise, which doesn't happen often.

[@arjay2002ph]

bowser singing was hilarious. his moment was just destroyed 😂😂😂

[@reaperoftheknight975]

7:06 I also lost it too when I saw that scene

[@KyCandicee]

The reaction at 19:22😂😂😂

[@christopheralvaradojr6704]

Man I love the fan service of the outfits. They are super! Let's -go! 😊

You guys could totally pull off a black Mario and Luigi. You look perfect!

It’s been a minute since I’ve seen strugglenation glad y’all doing good gang 💪🏾

“You really thought I’d marry you?” “Kinda”

[@codyknight8183]

Based on my trip to the theater, ya'll would have fit right in wearing your costumes. Saw so many people dressed up and having a blast.

[@regiluthfi]

i always listen bowser - peaches on a loop during my daily commute

[@Shaneo0oo]

There was a yoshi egg next to the gifts at the wedding

[@terraburnham9281]

I swear Lumalee was freaking hilarous the whole movie everyone in the theatre and me laughed so hard everytime she was on screen

[@CanadianRedEnsignCountryball]

TBQH when I saw the plumbing scene at the beginning of the film with the dog, I thought the Super Mario Bros. Would get sucked through the bathtub drain to the mushroom kingdom like the cartoon of the SMB Super Show! But sadly that didn’t happen…

[@kikobbell]

I'm the same way with my costumes... bought a Luigi costume in 2014 for 60 bucks, and I've been wearing it every Halloween since lmao

[@ScorpionStrike7]

Mario movie at the start of the year and FNAF movie at the end of the year. What a great year for video game adaptations

[@ricardoortiz4870]

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

[@MADBD619]

Not going to lie, guys. M-Dogg, Struggle Soldier, it’s very rare for you to react to certain movies that are pretty much out right now, let alone movies made in the certain year that they’re already released and everything. Not that I don’t mind it, but it’s still all very cool, man. Also, mad props to your outfits, guys. Very Retro. I LOVE it!

[@Thehunter905]

Also Mario Va is also voicing Mario father

[@rawwslap]

I'ma just say this really quick. They need to make a mega Man movie

[@gothmogonslaught6851]

Movie was so good! Bowser and the koopas were the highlight for me. And I gotta say, awesome costumes guys.

[@marshalleashappie978]

So much fun It got me hyped and entertained love every bit of it such an epic movie

[@sandrastover83]

Browser to me stole the show , he was kicking everyone’s butt 😂 In the games he’s always seemed pretty easy and weak , this one though I wouldn’t want to mess with 😂 39:54

[@coltongarber8087]

Your opening intro or whatever that is sounds like Rambo from Rambo First Blood when he's saying nothing is over but he's rapping that's cool 😎

[@traydaniel0403]

Here are the cast that I hope to appear in Super Mario Bros 2: Chris Pratt- Mario Anya Taylor-Joy- Princess Peach Charlie Day- Luigi Emma Stone or Zendaya- Princess Daisy Jack Black- Bowsler Walker Scobell- Bowsler Jr/ Diddy Kong Keegan Michael-Key- Toad Seth Rogen- Donkey Kong Fred Armisen- Cranky Kong with Bill Hader as Waluigi and Pedro Pascal as Wario (I also heard Jack Black, who voice Bowsler, wanted Pedro to voice Wario) Wish that the sequel could get a 2hrs run-time this time

[@luiscifuentes8668]

“Goooooood aaaassss Mooooovvvviiiieeee!”

[@Isaac-dk2yf]

Before I watch this...y'all look dope af in those outfits..

[@nisaiahcampbell8390]

It's Nintendo's first film ever since they opened their onw animated studios and already "Trail by fire" amazing. Then again this isn't the first time a famous video game franchise has been turned into an spectacular movie, and believe me this was spectacular! 1. Ratchet & Clank 2. Sonic the hedgehog 3. Super Mario Bros

[@FlixCreEightR]

Saw it in IMAX! Loved it.

[@FlixCreEightR]

We need a Mario game based off the movie.

[@tristanmilner9511]

This and Across the Spider-verse, either one can take the Best Animated movie Oscar and I'll be happy. Started with the Super NES system, which had Super Mario World and Super Mario RPG. Along with a ton of other great games.

[@unspeakableflame420]

31:02 "who donated a Yoshi egg" I don't know somebody I guess probably a koopa troopa or one of Bowser's minions

Waiting for Super Mario Bros. 2 Luigi's Mansion

[@only257]

great movie huge super mario fan better than the unwatchable 1993 movie

[@gurvmlk]

In a manner of speaking, Super Mario Bros. was the very first game I ever owned, but not the first one I ever played (unless I played any games with my older cousin prior to this story, which I can't remember for certain). On that fateful Christmas morning, I got my NES bundled with the Mario/Duck Hunt combo cartridge, as well as the first TMNT game. Now, at the time, I obviously had no idea who Mario was, but I damn well knew who the Ninja Turtles were. So soon as my dad got the console hooked up, and had read through all the instructions and everything, TMNT was naturally my first choice of game to play.

[@theamakchannel]

Mushroom theme drinks. Good luck 😂.

[@georgenelawson9917]

Love this movie its literally the game come to life actually the animation looks better than the game the textures the environments lol everything is exordniary lol all the references to all games and even the live action movie I was cool with that one wasn't perfect but at least it was kind of Mario lol pretty funny like a Mario parody lol

[@johncrichton2556]

The movie is awesome for real!

[@GeeklyGoods]

Soooo much fun!
