    Is it bad that smooth-brained entertainment for Nintendo enjoyers sounds about exactly what I’m equipped to handle right about now?

    Like zoning out to some seriously tepid nostalgia-slop sounds good.

      Last time I checked Mario Bros was supposed to be happy and fun and simple not an art house intellectual experience.

      I wonder if a lot of the reviews are just the bitterness that it’s going to be a 1.5B movie and that ‘real cinema’ movies do pitifully at the box office these days, very rarely to they even make $100mil
