Why am I even talking about this? I guess because it’s interesting. Is it just me, or is Japan finally getting something with that name? Or do they just slap a big fat “Super Mario Bros 4” on it? Honestly, who knows.
So, NBC Universal, right? They had this thing—wait, what’s it called? Oh yeah, an “upfront.” No clue why they call it that. But here’s the kicker: it’s got Nintendo fans buzzing. Apparently, they’re naming the next Mario flick! I stumbled on this tidbit in a press release. Kind of random, I know.
Picture this: NBC Universal chit-chatting about “Super Mario World” as part of a film lineup. It’s like they pulled a rabbit out of a hat or something. Anyway, this lineup’s a mishmash, with movies from Universal Pictures, DreamWorks, and a bunch of others. I mean, they’ve got stuff like Megan 2.0 and Nobody 2. Why do they always make sequels, huh? Oh, and don’t forget about The Phoenician Scheme—whatever that is.
Now, here’s the twist. Super Mario World is supposed to come out on April 3. Yeah, they’re already talking about 2025-26 films like it’s no big deal. Seriously, my brain’s still stuck in 2023. Why am I so behind? Ah well, that’s life.
