In a love that still feels like it is about twenty years too late, we are finally getting an animated movie called on Super Mario Bros. next year. So far, the response to The Super Mario Bros. Movie has been mixed by fans, with some praising the visuals but having issues with the voice cast, Chris Pratt as Mario specifically. The first teaser didn't tell us much, but we got a new trailer today that showed off a ton of new stuff, including different elements from different Mario games that will be included in this movie. Now please excuse me while I have N64-era Rainbow Road flashbacks.

Disney's Wish had a hard time finding an audience while in theaters, so maybe it'll have a better time on Disney+, where it will stream starting April 3rd.
