New Poster For The Super Mario Bros. Movie Features Rainbow Road
We have a new poster for The Super Mario Bros. Movie featuring the infamous Rainbow Road. It will be released on April 7th.
We have a new poster for The Super Mario Bros. Movie, and it will trigger many millennials and others because it features the infamous Rainbow Road. Rainbow Road was infamously long in Mario Kart and could kick your butt if you weren't paying attention. The poster also features something that always makes anyone in first place playing Mario Kart really nervous to see; the blue shell. If anyone thought this movie wouldn't lean into all aspects of the games, they aren't pulling any punches here.
No matter what, it's still a little weird that it took until 2023 for someone to make this film. While they are leaning in all of these aspects of the game that are just as nostalgic to an adult to a kid, there is no way for The Super Mario Bros. Movie not to feel a little late to the party. Maybe we needed to wait for everyone to get nerdy enough for the film not to compromise, but it's still baffling that we are on the first one of these and not the tenth.
