There has been a long wait for a movie based on a video game, to be good. We have seen countless efforts over the years and none of them has been able to achieve a real level of success. One of the first to attempt this was the Super Mario Bros. movie that came out in the year 1993. Though it did receive some praise for its effects and set design, it left a lot to be desired. Ultimately, it proved to be a disappointment that left a bad taste for many fans of the game. Given the result of this film, it is not surprising to note that there hasn’t really been any kind of efforts to make another one. But, supposing they do give it another shot, is it possible to get it right this time? If they do repeat the same mistakes, it will only result in a failure. Here is what the makers of the film must think about if they are going to take another crack at a Mario film.
Animated?
The whole concept of the game of Mario – Super Mario sunshine rom – is not realistic and that is one of the things that makes it so much fun. So, if you were going to make a live-action version of the game, it will surely look out of place in the real world. So, how do you solve this kind of a problem? The easy solution for that would be to make an animated film. Today, with the advancement in technology, animated films have shown that they are more than capable of doing films that are imaginative visually and emotionally appealing as well. Suddenly, the world of Mario looks so much better when it is animated and that will surely make fans of all kinds happy.
World Building
If a film is made, the world that we witness must be true to the game’s roots. Since people have been playing the game for a long time, they are very likely to be aware of the world of Mario and all the characters that inhabit it. The filmmakers must ensure that they represent all that is present in the game. This will allow the film to become a more wholesome experience for everyone. So, it is possible to make a good film regardless of how the past has been. All the people involved need to do is to consider factors such as this.
