Super Mario Bros. Movie Interviews It's been awhile since I've posted in this thread but the project is still ongoing. We've had several high-profile interviews in recent months, but unfortunately have yet to post them onto the site because we need to wait for the interviewees' next...

One belief common to many members of the Pokémon fandom is that new Pokémon simply aren't as creative as the older ones. This belief isn't usually forcefully imposed on others or even explained; rather, it is accepted as a truth to the series. Some people believe it without questioning, and...

I'm a big fan of the Super Mario Bros. movie, despite all its flaws. I actually work for a site that's had unique perspective into the movie's production as we've interviewed many of the actors, makeup artists, special effects workers, and scripters. We know the scope of the movie and what was...

Alright, two weeks later I've conducted my own interview with Mark Jeffrey Miller and Michael Harding. Mark played both the 'fried Tweeter vendor' that you can see in the background of some of the Koopa Square scenes and a 'Lizard Man' that was cut from the final film. Mike was one of the...

Yeah. Well, originally they had a much more fantasy-oriented script that was almost completely faithful to the games (or perhaps more-so the cartoon shows) but they scrapped those over time for some reason or another, most likely the state of special effects of the time. The Blade Runner-look...

I do know offhand that the set designer and several other people had previously worked on Blade Runner, a considerably better-received cult classic.

He caught a Pokemon with a skull on its head to honor his dead Pokemon? That's absurd. There's any number of reasons why Raticate wasn't in his team at that point other than it having died: for one, maybe because Blue is a dick and didn't want to use a weak Pokemon anymore. There's no evidence...

The most retarded theory in a long line of retarded fan theories. "Gary" (Blue) explicitly says he's there to catch a Cubone or something along those lines. There's no indication a Pokemon of his, Raticate or any other, died. People just want to make Gary less of a dick.

It really is something you had to have "been there" for. We appreciate it for what it was and what it was trying to do. I think anyone can respect that. I'll talk to Ryan (the webmaster) about that but for now I suggest registering at the forums. We have seven or so interviews coming up that...

Super Mario Bros. Movie Interviews One of my recent projects is working for the Super Mario Bros. The Movie Archive as far as mediating affiliation and interviews with members of the cast and production. The first interview I put-together is with Mojo Nixon (actor for 'Toad') and Ryan Hoss...

Since the title of this topic has nothing to do with reading I won't post about reading, I'll post about the actual suggested subject: I'm not comfortable traveling and have no plans to ever leave the bi-county area. Sometimes I'm willing to have day-trips to San Francisco or to leave the state...

All of Celebi23's threads are still available here on PC. I look into them every now and again for a quick refresher, since I've been doing my own research into the early R/B/G/Y and G/S/C concepts. Some of the stuff I've found is even on Celebi23's site (uncredited, though), such as the early...

I recommend you join the SMB Movie Archive forums. Dedicated to archiving information on the movie (such as early scripts, concept art, deleted scenes, merchandise, etc.) that's otherwise incredibly difficult to find. (The VIP code required to register is 2486) This thread discusses...

Yes! I mean, come on, how can anyone find the tongue-included animatronic Yoshi not awesome? Think you'd be able to take the time to send a short E-mail on the subject? The more people indicate they're interested the more likely it is that Disney will acquiesce and provide us with something...

Now, pray-tell, how would you have adapted a story about a plumber in a magical dinosaur world that stomps living mushrooms and turtles and shoots fire from his fists using flowers? The games are not filmable, and never should have been. The movie did an admirable job for what it was. In any...
