      @Mando No, not it’s not even based on the universe. It is a total bastardization of Tolkien. Even games like Shadow War/Mordor while having some free range with the Lore, at least were enjoyable and didn’t try to push a message. RoP is just utter trash with the writers intentionally giving Tolkien the middle finger because he didn’t have more female warriors or whatever nonsense

      She isn't strong in what you would consider any of the main line games though, especially the earlier ones before woke culture took of. She's strong in her spin offs (duh what else would they do) and like mario party, or smash which is just for game balance. Other than that the only time I can think of peach gbeing strong is as one of the selectable characters for multiplayer in newer side scrollers. (Which by that same logic we'd have to say Toads are strong and have superhuman powers too lol)

    Oppenheimer looks like it could definitely be a classic and the fact that it was getting hate for "lack of diversity" bodes well for it as it means higher chance of historical accuracy. I will wait and see with Roosevelt as well, how they decide to show the man, positive or negative. Also agree with Spider-Man and John Wick though I'd throw Hunger Games into the no go zone, hard pass for me. Mario deserves "Dating Zone" rating imo.

      The "Hot/Crazy Matrix" is a joke about how women are proportionally hot and crazy.
      The "Wife Zone" is, the zone of the woman you want to marry - hot, but not too crazy. It doesn't have anything to do with who you're going to take to movies (though I admit it's a little confusing here, because Ben, for instance, isn't going to take his kids to see John Wick IV).

    Pretty sure Mario is still the hero of the Mario movie. It looks like peach helps to train Mario. And, I mean, she rules a kingdom, it makes sense she knows things he doesn’t (especially since she’s from the mushroom kingdom and Mario isn’t). Also, she is a playable character in a lot of games. If you think that she can’t fight, then boy you haven’t played the games.
    I will say that it does seem like they changed peach’s personality. She is a badass and runs a kingdom, but you also see her make cakes for Mario, make quirky jokes, and her movement is typically more graceful and less… b-line? However, you can only get so much from a trailer. We’ll see what she’s like in the movie.

    Since I've read Dune, I will say that I think part 2 could be amazing. Part 1 has been labeled an exposition dump (which is pretty much the same in the book) but the latter parts of the book have more interesting stuff and don't really introduce anything new. For the most part they develop what's already been introduced save for a few things. But overall, if they stick to the book and maybe try a couple of new things, I think it will be great. I do appreciate sticking to the source material, but who doesn't like a nice little surprise here and there?

    2- How Mission Impossible 7: Dead Reckoning - Part One wasn't in the list ? Tom Cruise is amazing and the franchise is one of the remaining not-woke and very popular

    I would say that making Peach kick but in the movie is not off brand for Nintendo. They really don't cave to the woke. All the way back to the Super Nintendo in Mario RPG, Peaches was a playable character. So I think the movie is really more directed towards long time fans of the game franchise. At least I hope it is. I will say that when Nintendo was attacked by the woke mob over a hairstyle in Animal Crossing on Switch, they basically told the community, it's for everyone, if you like it play it, if not, then don't. Basically told the woke mob to go play something else since they wouldn't be changing their game for them.

    I think we’re missing Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part 1, which I think is a definite Wife Zone, and I’m really rooting for it to be a massive hit.
    Tom Cruise continues to show he’s unkillable and 100% dedicated to the art of action and pure entertainment, Christopher McQuarrie proved with Rogue Nation and Fallout that he knows how to write a good twisty action/thriller, and that he has the ability to direct those scripts with good pace and superb production quality, and the fact that they have stated that this is reaching a definite end (Part 2 will be the last MI movie) shows me that this isn’t just a quick buck blockbuster; Cruise and McQuarrie are crafting a proper sendoff to the greatest action hero of the 21st century.

    Back from the future after watching the Mario movie
    Ben you are wrong
    The Mario movie is 10/10
    Peach was awesome
    No woke
    Good music
    Good story
    Watch it
    Also I’m glad peach was more ‘empowered’ because she’s useless in the games lol

    I understand Peach being a “girl-boss” cause she was in some of the video games. It’s generally a far more interesting character for her, ALTHOUGH idk if they’re doing that in the film for the reasons we’d hope. I’d put the film in the Wife Zone.

      I gotta respect Nintendo for doing it to be honest. As a Mario fan me and the rest of the fandom WANT her to just stop being kidnapped for once😭. Plus it would make sense because she’s always been kidnapped so to have it happen again in the movie would just make it kinda predictable because we’ve already seen that situation a bunch of times.

      I agree, I think the purpose of giving peach is stronger role in the movie is to increase Mario's respectability in the movie. Because it is more respectable to be given a quest by a competent ruler than a foolish one.

      In the games, she doesn't have a smug girl boss personality though. She's more kind and whimsical and girly.

      @Terrifying AltAcc Yeah, it was a funny contrast.
      She could fight and all when she needed too but she was sweet and bubbly and didn't have an action hero persona.
      It's what I don't get with the internet complaints about Pratt's Mario voice but Peach"s personality change you aren't allowed to discuss at all.

      It was done in the video games to BE woke. But to be fair, it's not that bad. I'm not inherently against female protagonists or against feminism even, I'm against woke third wave feminism. The movie is for little kids. If it empowers little girls that's great. I played more Mario as a 30 year old man born in the 90s than today's kids, but it's still not my movie it's theirs.
      I wish more people realized that. Time to grow up, yeah?
