This is kind of a stupid idea, but have you ever noticed someone that kinda looks like Mario in real life? This is a topic where you compare the physical appearance of a video character to that of a celeb or someone you know. It can be any character, and you can even post pictures if you want.

Well, these are the first people that come to mind; I'll post more when I find 'em.

Mario

Luigi (kind of)

If you give Luigi a suit and a fedora, he'd look kinda like Scatman John.

Lizard Dude · « **Reply #18 on:** February 23, 2007, 12:45:03 AM »

John Paul Larkin, (March 13, 1942 — December 3, 1999), better known as Scatman John, was a famous stuttering jazz musician who perfected a unique fusion of scat singing and disco, best known for his 1994 hit "Scatman (Ski Ba Bop Ba Dop Bop)".

Yeah... I too was gonna mention that Scatman John could've made a good Mario in real life... or Luigi...

I also wonder who would concur to the fact that Hollywood actor Danny DeVito would be it too, if he gets some hair and a big moustache?

Bob Hoskins didn't have hair and they thought he looked the part.

Danny was considered for the part, although I did get this info from Wikipedia (which is, by no means, a Mario info site.)

Beldam is that ugly looking leader type.

Marilyn is that stupid fat one.

And Vivian is the kinda' cute but also stupid type. Good find!

Stinky didn't say much, and neither did Vivian (unless she wanted to get slammed by Beldam). Plus he had that extreme dragon breath, while Vivian had fire powers.

Actually, I just forgot to press the quote button, if you can believe that.

I used to compare Digimon to Pokemon, but after rewatching it years later, I found Digimon to be a totally different show.

I also compared Coke to Pepsi and Sprite to 7up.

The Chef · « **Reply #54 on:** March 14, 2007, 12:33:20 PM »

You can;t compare DIgimon to Pokemon for the following reasons:

-Digimon came first.
-Digimon started out as a manga.
-Pokemon started out as a video game.
-Pokemon was inspired by it's director's bug-collecting hobby when he was little.

Glorb · « **Reply #55 on:** March 14, 2007, 03:44:50 PM »

Yeah, but...

1. They both end in "mon" (as in, "Hey, mon, what's up?")
2. Both games deal with collecting various annoying creatures
3. They both take place in some sort of alternate universe where said creatures are commonplace
4. The creatures in both games will grow into some bigger, badder form
5. Both series had one or more crappy movies based on it
6. Both Digimon and Pokemon have some sort of "main" creature used in all their marketing (Pokemon - Pikachu, Digimon - That little annoying dinosaur thing)
7. They both have a trading-card game

Lizard Dude · « **Reply #56 on:** March 14, 2007, 05:53:36 PM »

I hate to break it to you, Chef, but you and Glorb both just did compare Digimon to Pokemon.

The Chef · « **Reply #57 on:** March 14, 2007, 06:27:59 PM »

Uh Glorb, the problem with your assessments is that Digimon is not a video game series. So I don't know which "game" you're referring to on that Digimon side of the spectrum.

Oh, and I can't beleive LD actually listened to you on the name change.

SushieBoy · « **Reply #58 on:** March 14, 2007, 07:02:38 PM »

There are games out based on Digimon, but, they are really bad.

The Chef · « **Reply #59 on:** March 15, 2007, 01:19:48 PM »

That's the main reason why they shouldn't be compared, though. One is a video game series, and the other is an anime/manga series.

Glorb · « **Reply #60 on:** March 15, 2007, 02:07:33 PM »

It shouldn't matter; if I made a video game called "Gordzilla" about a giant lizard named Gordzilla who terrorizes Kyoto and fights Rordan and Kring Gridora, it's still a Godzilla ripoff. Okay, crappy example, but you get the point. On the other hand, I see what you mean; they're two very different mediums, so yeah.

And I just realized; all The Chef and I do now is argue.

Pt_Peach · « **Reply #61 on:** March 16, 2007, 03:02:35 AM »

7. They both have a trading-card game

But...they are in no way the same thing. Digimon had a lot more heart to it, and the basic theme that they all have to work together to stand strong and save the world. In Pokemon, the main goal is to be the best Pokemon master ever, on your own. Yeah, you have friends, but you figure they eventually have to have these friends duke it out to see who's the best. Not to mention the sacrifices made by certain characters to save others in Digimon.

Kojinka · « **Reply #64 on:** March 18, 2007, 07:36:01 PM »

I thought we were comparing people with Mario characters.

Only in the first season of the anime was Agumon supposedly a main creature used for marketing, and that was mostly because his human partner, Tai, was basically the leader figure for the Digi-destineds. Second season had Veemon. Trust me, I practically worshiped Digimon back when I was 12.

I guess the only true difference is that the Digimon could actually speak english other than just saying their names. I mean, speaking English in a way humans can understand.
