CineKuest Video: The Mario Bros Movie: Blade Runner the Henson’s Cut
2021–let’s do this! Better than last year! Probably! Possibly! Just maybe! Please? New year, new Cinekuest formattery. For the next few months, we will cover movies based on vidjy games! Yea, though we walk through the valley of hubris, we fear no shitteh movie. Despite our faith, this year will nonetheless have a slew of questionably amazing movies that we take by storm! I mean, quite a few of them are pretty good when compared to a hole in the head (which may be preferable). To start off our foray into video game movies, we chose the 1993 classic, much beloved, Super Mario Bros starring John Leguizamo and Bob Hoskins as Luigi Mario and Mario Mario (names are canon…yes…really!). A pair of not-a-stereotype-at-all plumbers scraping by on the grit of their roto rooters and can-do attitudes! Luigi meets Daisy, a paleontologist specializing in dinos and studying her own past at the same time, unbeknownst to her. Parallel worlds! Hells the highest of yeses! As their wonky ass date goes awry, the plumbers end up crossing over into Dinohatten (Not that Mario and Luigi were on a date, but that’s not an important distinction to make in this sentence, we suppose…), ruled by King Koopa, the Hoppa! Yes, kids, we get Dennis Hopper in this flick who clearly had no idea what the hell he was doing in this role, but it is fuckin’ fantastic. Think of a cross between Donald Trump as President of the US and Dr. Evil and you’re close! Also a badasscool leather suit. Get your post-apocalypse cyber-trash-future fetishes here, folks, while they’re hot! They’ve got a Super Scope(™)! Walk The Dinosaur! Beware the Bob-omb Bitches! Join Rey, Roland, Bryce, and Daniel as they ramble about this classic Hollywood Flopper.
