Does anyone think that Nintendo will make a new Mario movie? If so, what are your suggestions for it? Would it be animated, live action, computer animated, etc. Post your replies here.

Considering how horrid the first one was (suprisingly, I liked it.), there will not be another one in the near future.
I think everyone is seeing how the Final Fantasy Movie and Tomb Raider Movie (Go Angelina Jolie!) will fare before making another Mario movie.
I'd personally like to see one based off of SMB2 IMO.

I really want a new movie! I'd like it to be like SMW,animation movie. BTW, I'm from Israel and I don't know, Is there a SMW TV series?
-
I would like another Mario movie. I liked the first movie(so did my brother) and I don't know why knowone else liked it.
-
I actually was playing around with the idea for a computer animated movie based on SM64. I was kind of writing the script out for it (I do that alot, that and video game ideas and junk like that) and it would work. If you guys want I'll post it up some time and you can see how it would be funny as well as really cool. I had the whole opening scene pictured all ready it was funny man!
Doomba, King of the Goombas

I liked the first mario movie. but keep in mind- that was made a long time ago so the graphics suck.....just imagine the kind of KingKoopa we could have if they made a new mario movie! imagine the goombas and the everything......i think it should be based on SMB1 SMB3 SMW SM64 and have a little chase scene like MK or MK64!
get a little bit of everything in there

Get SuperMegaMedia (the people behind the Final Fantasy and the rumored [parasite EVE] movie and the Space Channel 5 show on MtV next year) on it if you allw ant a CG movie.
I personally liked the first one. It had a B movie feel to it.
-
I for one would like to see another Mario Movie. Think of a Mario Anime style Movie! Wouldn't that be cool? I'd like to read that script!
Kweeh! Kweeh!

There was a "Super Mario World" cartoon series. Actually, I saw that before I ever played the game!
-
I came up with an idea for a "Mario" movie about a year ago, but my plot outline read like an episode of "The X-Files."
-
I think the new Mario movie should be based on either Super Mario RPG or Super Mario Bros. 3 (even though the first movie was slightly based on SMB, SMB3, and SMW). Mario and Luigi would be the only live action people in the movie. Mario should be played by Bob Hoskins (as in the first movie), but Luigi should be played by Ben Affleck. Toad should be a computer animated mushroom person like in the game, and should help the Mario Bros. on their journey to save the Princess. Wario should make an appearance as Mario's evil cousin whoi is sent by koopa to capture the Princess. Yoshi (who would not look like a T-Rex, but will look like the little green dino in Super Mario World) should not have a cameo role, instead he should actually help Mario beat Koopa (who would be a computer animated turtle). The Goombas will NOT be 10 foot tall monsters with tiny heads (as in the first movie), but should be the small, fanged mushrooms as pictured in Super Mario Bros. The Bullet Bills (which did make a slight cameo appearance in the first movie as the cartriges that were inserted into the Stomper Boots) should be 500 pound missiles that explode when they hit a wall. The Bob-Ombs should NOT be the tiny wind-up bombs as in the first movie, but should be the size of bowling balls and explode like a nuclear bomb!! Finally, the two thugs Iggy and Spike (supposedly two of Koopas 7 Koopa Kids) should be computer animated and will look more like their video-game counterparts (i.e.: big spiked shell, fire breath, horns on head, etc.). What do you think?

I think it's a good idea, but i'd prefer an animated film. Like SM64 or SMW and all the SMBs.

Super Mario Bros.
My "Mario" movie would not be as sequel to the original "Super Mario Bros." movie, but would be a live-action film with considerable C.G.I. for the Koopas and some of the more bizarre Kingdoms of Mushroom World. It would be more serious science fiction than any previous "Mario" form and would be geared with adults and children in mind, sort of like "Star Wars."
Story: Something's wrong with the sewers in Brookyln, NY. For some reason, turtles have been popping out of sewer pipes all over town. It's up to Something's wrong with the sewers in Brookyln, NY. For some reason, turtles have been popping out of sewer pipes all over town. It's up to expert plumber Mario Segali and his brother Luigi to rid their hometown of this infestation. These aren't ordinary snapping turtles, either. Nicknamed "Shellcreepers," they are the size of Galapagos tortoises but are fast and vicious. Luigi, a paranormal enthusiest, believes that the Shellcreepers are a whole new order of life, since they are blue, possess certain birdlike features, and are all-around unturtleish. Plus their shells seem to be biomechanical add-ons that are not only dangerous when the Shellcreeper is dead, but can over time regenerate a new 'Creeper. Mario is skeptical of his diagnosis, but as they get deeper and deeper into the sewers thay start finding mysterious technology and "artifacts" that shouldn't be there. They find the source of the Shellcreepers, a large pipe that's design matches the weird technology they found earlier. Luigi crawl through the pipe and eventually emerges in a vast prairie full of more advanced relativesof the Shellcreepers ("Koopa Troopas" and "Paratroopas") and motile mushrooms ("Goombas"). He finds an indigenous life form named Kinopio (nicknamed "Toad") who tells him that this is Mushroom World, a parallel universe. Recently, the eight allied kingdoms of Mushroom World have been annexed by the Koopas, a race of dragon-like beings who travel from one universe to another for the purpose of conquest. The human princesses (Peach and Daisy Toadstool) of the two allied kingdoms Mushroom World is now under the imperial rule of genetically engineered Koopa Monsters, but there is still hope. A prophesy states that two brothers from another world will destroy the Koopas, rescue the princesses, and restore peace to Mushroom World. Luigi returns through the "Warp Zone" to get his brother.
This is all I got done before I decided to stop writing because I was wasting by time and getting really bored.

That's an ok idea... Although I don't really understand what it has to do with the traditional Mario plot (Princess being captured, Bowser invading the Mushroom Kingdom, etc.) The story you're writing seems more like the Mario Bros. game (not Super Mario Bros.) for the Arcade...

I probably would have gotten to the "Super Mario Bros." plot if I hadn't gotten bored so quick. : )
-
Then again, I was working toward the best possible movie when, it seems from the actual "Super Mario Bros." film the makers were trying to create the WORST possible movie based (loosely) on Mario. Here is a (not so serious) cast list of a "Mario" movie devised thinking like the type of Hollywood movie makers that let films like "Armageddon" and "Scream 3" go into production.
Mario.................Tom Green
Luigi.................Adam Sandler
Princess Toadstool....Baby Spice
Voice of Yoshi........Robin Williams
Toad..................Seth Green
Mallow................Gary Coleman
Geno..................Eminem
Donkey Kong...........Bill Cosby
Voice of Pikachu......Norm MacDonald
Voice of Jigglypuff...Leonardo DiCaprio
Booster...............Samuel L. Jackson
King Bowser...........Dennis Hopper
Wario.................Wayne Knight
Goomba................Val Kilmer
Wart..................Ernest Borgnine
Tatanga...............Matt Frewer
Kamek.................Nicholas Lea
Buzzy Beetle..........Dennis Hopper
Shy Guys..............The Backstreet Boys
Toady Koopa...........Andy ****
Dennis Hopper.........Himself

If I had the time and Hard Drive space I would make a bunch of Mario Movies in .gif format. But I seriously doubt there will be a new Mario Movie within the next 2 or 3 years. After that who knows? :)

What kind of character list is that?!! It's completely rediculously funny!! Tom Green as Mario?! Wayne Night as Wario (although he does have that fatty look...) How about this..
MARIO: Bob Hoskins (He does look like Mario)
LUIGI: Leonardo DiCaprio (Only if his voice were lower...)
BOWSER: Dennis Hopper (voice)
YOSHI: Robin Williams (Voice)
TOAD: Robin Williams (Voice)
Princess T.: Sarah Machelle Gellar (She's hot!)
That's all I can think of...

I had way too much caffeine in my system when I made up that cast list.

Hey there. I know this is an old forum, but I could'nt resist. I too, am writing a script for a Super Mario Bros. The Movie sequal. It still has Goombas being 8 feet tall and so forth, but it gets better.
Years after the Koopa incidence, Mario and Luigi have become sucsesful and Dinohatten has prospered and Koopa's best friend, Wart(who would be played by a human) is sick of it,so he gathers Koopa's ooze(as I like to call it), takes over the Royal Family Tower with the help of his Snifits, and plans to re-evolve Koopa.
That's as much as I'll say about it, and when Wart tries to clone Mario and Luigi, something goes wrong and he gets..... you guessed, Wario and Waluigi,whos mission is to destroy the Mario Bros. Toad's re-evolution worked perfectly bringing him back to normal but Koopa's re-evolution does'nt go to plan turning him into a giant turtle like creature. If you'd like to know more, just ask.
Now I'm gonna make a monkey out of you.

You know what? If Tomb Raider and Final Fantasy (the movies) go over well, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if Nintendo got to work on licensing a Legend of Zelda movie. Let's face it, a Zelda movie (if done right) would kick so much @$S it'd blow the pants off Final Fantasy and Tomb Raider, and probably open the door for a (good) Mario Bros. movie.
Speaking of which, I plan to write up a fan-fic over the summer. I think it could be turned into a movie, but for right now it'll just be a little message board fan-fic. Look for the first "episode" of The Brothers Mario on the story boards within the next week or two.

Have a nice end of the world.

Oh boy, this post has ten paragraphs. My longest post yet! Fear...
I've never been able to imagine any video games translating well into movies. And besides, movies are one-shot deals. Video games constantly spawn sequels and rip-offs to keep things fresh without being the same thing over and over.
And besides, think about it. Super Mario Bros., with all the stuff in it, being made into a movie? Well, you saw how the movie turned out. Bad idea. However, I seemed to like the movie (I was bummed out to see how Yoshi looked, though).
My favorite part from the Mario movie? Well, rather a quote I remember. Mario: We're the aliens! Luigi: Cool! hehe, that was funny
But I still had problems identifying characters. Having Daisy in it was different from having Princess like I expected. And those two tall dudes that acted as Bowser's cohorts? I didn't even knew who they were until I paid attention. They're supposed to be the KOOPALINGS? Please. No resemblance whatsoever.
I've noticed that the ONLY video game movies that translate well are animated. Look at Pokemon. I personally hate Pokemon, but the movie went along well with fans of the series. And of course there's other animated stuff like the cartoons that went about real well.
I'm still waiting to find out if a Star Fox anime cartoon really exists, and I want proof of it as quickly as possible! Some pictures would be grand.
So back to a new Mario movie, it would fare much better if it was animated. And by now you'd think there would be some technology that would make anyone's voice sound like a certain voice. If so, this means that if the previous actors didn't die off years ago (I'm assuming they're not around anymore), we could have the old voices once again acting for us.
But since that won't happen, I'd much rather have people that sound like the original actors be the voices for a new movie. And I'm talking about the voices for the cartoon. I wonder, who does Yoshi's voice? I already know the name of the guy who does Yoshi's normal ''Yoshi's Story'' voice, but what about the cartoon?
Anyway, I'm done ranting. It might also be nice to reveal some of the secrets of the cartoon, like maybe showing a good candidate for Bowser's wife. Hey, those wacky Japanese have drawn weird characters before, so surely they're capable of drawing up new characters.
And if Square had something to do with the movie, that might be its saving grace. Square was responsible for making Super Mario RPG excellent, so why not?
To be a Koopa, you must become a Koopa.

Alright, I know this doesn't have much to do with Mario or a Mario movie, but since we're on the subject of animated game-based movies/shows/what have you...
And Square...
Has anybody ever seen the Chrono Trigger OAV anime? The episode that I saw (and for all I know, the only episode) was quite ridiculously amusing, though in Japanese...
