Wow. One day after Coleman, another one goes.

If they ever make a sequel to the Super Mario Bros. movie, they'll need a new Bowser.

They say these things come in threes...

And besides, did you think John Leguizamo was a good Luigi?
"Oh, if you see him coming get away if you can. Just keep on running, run as fast you can. He's a dangerous, dangerous man. And he's out tonight. And he's watching you. And he knows your house. Ki ki ki ma ma ma. No, don't turn out the light. Yeah causes hes back. He's the man behind the mask. And he's out of control." -Alice Cooper

Leguizamo was too young to be Luigi.

I've always been under the impression that the Mario Bros. were pretty close in age. So for Hoskins to look like an approaching-middle-age Mario, and Leguizamo to be a scrawny-teen-looking Luigi just seemed awkward.

Aside from a few Mario references, you'd never know that was supposed to be a Mario movie.

I threw in the towel on that movie when Hoskins referred to a T-Rex as a "single-celled organism".
