17 years have passed since the unhappily remembered "SUPER MARIO BROS." hit the theaters in 1993. Do you recall the ending? That cliffhanger that pissed so many of us moviegoers off... hinting at the possibility of a sequel? Well, since it epically failed, we got no sequel. Many are happy for this fact. Some are puzzled. Others... like myself... wonder what it would be like...
What if Super Mario Bros. made a return to the silver screen, bigger and better than ever before? Would it be a sequel, a reboot? Would it be called NEW Super Mario Bros?
Call it what you will... Because regardless, the Bros. are back!
Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo return as the Brothers Mario. Scarlett Johannson joins the cast as Princess Peach Toadstool.
Super Mario Bros. (the game) belongs to Shigeru Miyamoto and Nintendo (c) 1985.
Super Mario Bros. (the film) belongs to Hollywood Pictures (c) 1993.

Anyways, I actually help run The Super Mario Bros. The Movie Archive. Do you think you'd be interested in us showcasing this piece under our Fan Art section?
oh well, maybe they will make another movie someday...
Dennis Hopper (King Koopa) was called in at unreasonable hours of the day to come and film his scenes--not to mention, it kinda killed his career. I mean, have you seen him around often after that movie?!??!
The movie made nowhere near its budget in revenue when it released, it was just an overall bad experience for the cast, crew and audience, sadly.
