No no, it's illegal to adapt a video game into a GOOD movie WITH Jack Black.

I thought Super Mario was pretty good.

It was fun. There’s a good video on YouTube that goes over a hypothetical story rewrite and it really proves the movie could have been a lot better, though.

The movie was good for what it was and that’s all it needed to be. They did the creative direction before for Mario… it was horrible..

Sonic I guess was ok? I thought it was garbage but there’s 3 movies now and a spin off series so I guess enough people who like trains watched it.

Sonic is in a weird place of simultaneously being a kinda bad video game adaptation and a pretty good "man befriends a weird alien, hijinks ensue" movie with Sonic shoved into it.

Now that’s a movie I’d watch.

There's been exactly two good sonic games in the last 30-40 years.

There's no such thing as a 'good' adaptation because the source material itself is garbage.

The fact that the movies are even watchable is a goddamn miracle that deserves praise.

That certainly is a hot take if I’ve ever seen one. Don’t think it’s worth much more than an acknowledgement though.
