Review Rate The Last Movie You Saw

Saw the Super Mario Galaxy Movie. 2/5. Not bad, not great either. Just a fun, run of the mill movie! It does what it needs to do and nothing more.

The fact that I had no idea we were even getting this movie until about a few weeks ago says a lot. Just an influx of marketing merchandise flooded in the past month that I caught wind of like those Luma bath bombs by Lush and some other Mario Galaxy product they had to take off the shelf because it stained people's skin with the dye used. Old Spice just dropping a boatload of limited edition scents (but it does smell pretty good. It is also soap).
I haven't heard of anything like a Mario Meal or something one would expect to see like how Minecraft did its marketing (for an equally... meh movie to be honest I had to turn it off. A+ marketing season though. Chicken Jockey).

Social Media did NOT like this movie! I was kinda surprised after the first Mario Movie was received so well.

I (re)watched Return of the Living Dead the other night. Never rated it on here I think. Gets a 4/5 from me just because of how endearingly crazy it is and my enjoyment of the effdcts they used in it. Tar Man is my favorite zombie of all time. His sequel brother isn't as terrifying to me but still good.

I didn't realize the major push of merch for this film was this hard lol. I hardly stay on top on any merch news since I don't have cable TV and I have ad blocker lol.

It is kind of crazy of this extreme negative reaction to an average movie. I can agree somewhat that the plot wasn't really there other than "there's a problem, now we fix it" and that's it. The ending did seem to come out of nowhere and felt like it needed an extra 30 minutes or an hour to finished off what it needs to do. But the animation was absolutely stunning across the board, and the voice acting was top-notch. Felt like people are going wayyy too hard for a movie by coming up crazy, outright schizo theories of "coporate overlords". It just a movie, ya'll!

Maybe the next one will be better plotwise? Who knows (unless they adapt RPG or Mario and Luigi RPG story), but let's chill a bit lol

I saw the original Living of the Dead, and thought it was great. Never realized that the film you watch is connected to that.
