    I felt that Peach's reason for bringing Mario with her made sense in hindsight. Toad was literally the only Toad brave enough to go with her, meaning she was pretty much on her own for this adventure otherwise. Then she meets another human like herself for the first time that wants to go to save his brother. When Mario demanded to go, she gave him a day to complete a course to prove he wouldn't slow her down. She had already planned to head out to the Kong's island the next day. So she didn't spend any extra time on him.
    Basically, "Nobody else is going with me tomorrow, and then I meet the first-ever human aside from myself that wants to do it to save his brother. If he can complete this combat course showing he won't slow me down before I leave, he can come along."

    • @shadewrightgames5054
      @shadewrightgames5054 Рік тому +163

      The other possible factor that played a part in this was her witnessing Mario's determination. He never gave up for even a second. Even after she fell asleep he continued to try.
      He's persistent and didn't listen when someone told him no. Even pushing through his repulsion to mushrooms just to save his brother.

    Bowser and Kamek seem to know what humans are (they refer to Mario and Luigi that way), and Toad also never seems confused by what Mario is, so I’d say it’s safe to assume humans might be common knowledge in the Mushroom kingdom. I don’t think that works as evidence that Peach isn’t human or has some astral knowledge.

      @rikkupendragon8372 Рік тому +15

      Perhaps the only way to die is being taken out by someone using a power up. DK wasn't using any special items when he was fighting Mario but since Mario had the cat suit, he was able to inflict damage to him. This is also why the Mushroom kingdom is so afraid of Bowser when he has the super star. He can do actual damage to them, even killing the entire kingdom I also noticed that when Mario and Luigi use the super start to defeat Bowser in Brooklyn, Bowser doesn't really show evidence of damage either. I'll have to watch the movie again but I don't remember seeing damage and he certainly didn't die. So I wonder if the power up items have a different affect in the real world vs the Mushroom Kingdom.

    I feel like Peach knows what humans are because the Toads know what humans are. Peach, Mario and Luigi aren't the first humans to come to the Mushroom Kingdom, given that there's literally a pipe to the MK in Brooklyn. So at some point there were more humans, but they left or died off at some point. The Toads knew about humans and told Peach when she grew up, because at some point she surely would have realized that she's not a Toad. She just doesn't know what other humans look like because the others are gone for whatever reason

    The “Peach is star” theory is actually *supported in the games* (sort of) alongside the other main characters being stars too. In Yoshi’s Island DS it is said that there are 7 “ *star children* that are born from a mighty dying star; destined for greatness” and the plot revolves around future Bowser trying to find these children to “harness their power to take over the universe”. At the end it is revealed that these star children included Bowser himself, Mario, Luigi, Wario, Donkey Kong, and of course Peach. The final scene that makes me believe they could draw from this is a green Yoshi hatching from his egg to reveal the final star child. This is incredibly similar the the Yoshi reveal in the post-credit scene of the movie.

      @@orangeinkius7257 It's probably gonna turn out to be a thing were the Mushroom Kingdom turns out to be some sort of central traveling nexus point for the "Warp System" to ALL galaxies and dimensions out there in the Nintendo world, including "real" earth. Hence why a warp had to be there for Brooklyn too. Maybe Rosalina herself built the warp system to make traveling long distance easier at some point in the past?
      As for Peach, I think it's the other way around for her relationship with Rosalina: She's not Rosalina's mother, She's her daughter. Since Rosalina is a "goddess" of the galaxy of sorts, that takes into account as to why Peach doesn't call herself human despite appearances. She instinctively knows she's divine and from the stars.
      That said, yeah, it'd be nice to know how they already know humans exist. In Chronicles of Narnia, humans are treated almost like a legend at best or conspiracy at worst, almost like we would consider aliens. But the Narnianans know about us through legends and stuff. Maybe it's something similar with the Mushroom Kingdom.

      You know what game that started as a generic jumpman platformer, was heavily designed around vertical scrolling mechanic like Kid Icarus and ICe Climber, a bit of Gunpei Yokoi staple? A little project they then released as part of a fuji TV licensing deal, called... Yume Kojo: Doki Doki Panic. At this point the vertical scrolling had drastically been altered more towards typical horizontal scrolling.
      MAYBE the alteration to Yume Kojo project never happened, because Fuji TV never HAD THAT EVENT. Because... Sarasaland does exist in this universe, complete with Shy Guys.

      I gotta admit that at first I thought it was a bit forced but quickly changed my mind in that Peach just wanted to help him out since he was lost in this newfound world and is trying to find his brother, I just can not understand why people think it was rushed? Also something funny I realized is that some of Chris´ roles has them get beat up by badass woman at first sight for a good reason lol all of them except Emmet who just got slapped with a cactus all because he lied about being a master builder and the guy that can save the world (which he eventually did in the end), okay the master builder part I get, but Lucy did just tell him earlier that he was the person that can save the world, so he is not really lying if she quite frankly told him that he was the one so that´s kinda on her, out of all the main Pratt roles I have seen so far (and every main character for that matter that I know of), Emmet is the one that I think has had the worst treatment by far in any media (sorry Star lord fans), for two movies straight, this guy would go as far as to risk his life to save the people that he cares about, and everyone else would respect him for it, then years later act like he did absolutely nothing in the last movie, even though they straight up dipped out and were ready to accept their fate the moment they learned that he was not what they were expecting, even Emmet himself was starting to get slightly fed up during the moment where the gang were thinking of ideas on how to build their submarine and Emmet tried to tell them that putting all their ideas together would not work but they didn´t listen and he just had look of ¨I don´t know why I even put up with these people¨ look, I swear you can not make a character any more sympathetic than this, okay that´s all.

      Mario clearly was not important to bring on the journey, since Peach could do everything from platforming to fighting Donkey Kong on her own, and she even says "he's not important" when talking to the Toads about Mario. Whatever Mario did in his journey to save Luigi and defeat Bowser, Peach could do with less difficulty. She may have shown kindness to Mario by letting him come along on the journey, but by doing so she risked endangering his life and potentially killing him.
      A good reason to have Mario go on the journey would be if Peach couldn't, as in there had to be something holding her back from going, like an injury or something. Maybe if it happened after Mario completed his training, this would give Mario a reason to go instead of Peach, as he would be the second-best parkour platformer in the land, behind Peach.
      Of course, my argument would be totally invalid, but I thought that this was how the story should go to give Mario further reason to go on the journey.

    I’m hoping the next film will be a Luigi’s mansion movie to make up for his lack of screen time in the first one and reverse the roles. I think the whole Yoshi thing will be the thing that we leap into with no context at the beginning of the movie to kick things off and tie the two together, with maybe Luigi getting his first hint of bravery after the first movie by being the one to wrangle and save the baby Yoshi in the streets of Brooklyn, and it calls him mama, referencing the infamous Mama Luigi of one of the old Mario cartoons. It would be a cool moment to start the second movie on and would be a good way to establish Luigi as the main focus of the movie, and his struggle to be brave as a theme. At the end we could have a reverse parallel of the reunion in the first movie, proving Luigi is as capable as Mario. That’s my big theory. I think it would make a ton of narrative sense, and given we’ve seen king boo at bowser’s sham wedding, it seems like they’re already seeding clues, or at very least making the possibility known.

It wasn't until Yoshi's Island that Mario was said to be from the Mushroom Kingdom and this was later further expanded by Mario, DK, Wario, Luigi, the princess and Bowser are all what is known as the star children which explains their immense power within the games themselves.

    the reason mario isn't taking a lost of damage in the DK fight might be because Donkey Kong actually wasn't kidding when he said he let Mario win. He seemed to really enjoy being the center of attention in that fight, and helping win an even bigger one (against bowser) would only make him more popular. When he heard his dad would send the Kong army (and therefore Donkey Kong himself) if mario beat him in a fight, DK might have gone easy on mario so that he could see some real action. It sure didn't seem like there were many fights happening in the mushroom kingdom besides in the arena for DK, and it was pretty clear he liked action.

  • @Chigger

    I figured that Peach's reasoning for accepting Mario's help is because they both had beef with Bowser. And it's not like she immediately accepted Mario as the Mushroom Kingdom's hero; Peach told Mario she wanted to see what he was made of, which led to the obstacle course.
    Given the fact that Mario did so well for someone who arrived from a different world less than a day ago, Peach saw that Mario would be tough to stop. It only made sense to join forces, especially with both of them looking to protect their own from Bowser.
    If you ask me, Princess Peach is probably the Aragorn of this movie.

    I just realized, the theory about Peach being a Star has been in plain sight this whole time. In Super Mario 64 after Mario defeats bowser, he drops one massive Star, that isn’t considered to be one of the 120 power stars Mario’s collected. Mario takes that Star back to Peach’s castle, and once he releases it, it flies up to the stained glass window of Peach where she rematerializes. We all thought Mario used the power of the stars to set Peach free of whatever prison Bowser trapped her in, but what if Mario was turning her back into a human? My guess is that Bowser probably knew that Peach was a star and figured out how transform her into her true self so that he could use her power to increase his own, and Mario was able to turn her back into a human by retrieving the other stars and defeating Bowser.

      The arcade had an alternate version of the Donkey Kong game with a yeti as the bad guy. There is _no reason_ to just assume something similar didn't happen with the Mario franchise as well. Maybe in Mario's native Earth there was a game about, I dunno, a spark called Chip that searched the CPU Kingdom far and wide for a data package stolen by King CMD Prompt, but every time Spark reached the goal there was a guy named Error telling him that the Data Package is on another hard drive.

    Hey, the Super Mario Movie just came to Netflix and I decided to watch it again. I then noticed that maybe, just maybe, the super star was meant to be stolen. Think of it. The DK kingdom is the best kingdom so shouldn’t that be the kingdom to hide the super star. The penguin kingdom is the worst, but somehow, they were chosen to guard the super star. Do the penguins have some sort of secret weapon, or was the super star just meant to be stolen?

    When I was watching the movie I noticed that at the end when Mario and Luigi were fighting Bowser they both were fighting pretty well. While this makes sense for Mario because he had that training montage, Luigi was stuck in a cage for most of the movie. My reason for this is because Luigi is just better in every way and was only using a small percentage of his power but who knows?

    For Peach doing the obstacle course on her first time people seem to think that she did it without any training or practice. She even says the Toads trained her when she os talking about her past. They wouldn't put her on the obstacle course first time. She did it with Mario because there wasn't much time and she needed to see how he was already.

      @Raeanna Hoskinson read my comment again. Just because she got it on her first try on the course does not mean she did it without training.

      She grew up there; Mario was still getting used to the environment, gravity, atmosphere, and was somewhat emotionally destabilized from all the recent events vs his normally mundane life.
      In the beginning of the film, he's shown to have *some,* inherent talent for obstacle runs when the plumber's truck won't crank and he gets through that construction site. But like all _Mario_ players in any new game, getting used to the controls and practicing the game is fundamental to success.
      We also know that while Peach was highly talented, this was _not_ enough to defeat Bowser by herself, since a lot of lives were on the line and she wasn't holding back during their fight aboard the Airship.

      ​@@raeannahoskinson2699 So tbf the complainers don't have a lot of experience doing TRAINING, and finishing the EXAM on the first go. While getting flustered about how the difficulty was actually on the training, not that they're some genius like they kinda accidentally just implied. They'll just double down, that even if they DO have to exert themselves they're great at everything anyway.
      The difference is calling a test easy for getting an A and feeling embarrassed because you kinda acted like you didn't ahve the trouble BEFORE the exam, only realizing it when being called out. And the other side is getting a B and ACTUALLLY gets offended they're not called geniuses for it. They saw themselves in Mario even though they only imagined the similarity. Probably because they always identify with the one whose name is in the title, even if it's Lord of the Rings. And god save you if you make movie "calling them" a girl: The Legend of Zelda is pushing it.

    I also love some of the scenes like Luigi telling Bowser to his face that says Princesses find his brother attractive and the relationship between Mario and DK was pretty cool.

    I have a bit of a large theory about the Denizens of the Mushroom kingdom and why Peach is one of the only human that can exist there indefinitely and it has to do with the Crowns. This obviously extends to Daisy too… but in a way, makes Bowsette canonical.

    • @Gaz66d
      @Gaz66d Рік тому +3

      Basically it’s like Magic Mycelium.
      The spores and roots of everything that is in close proximity turn things into copies of them.
      The toads are half turned humans who have spent enough time in close proximity to Goombas that look entirely like Mushrooms.
      Princess Peach mad a safe haven in the “Mushroom Kingdom with a safe quarantine zone to make sure ve don’t become FULL Goombas.
      How?
      The magic of the crown.
      Remember the crown that started the whole Bowsette thing?
      What if all crowns in the Mushroom kingdom and beyond negate the effects of the Magic Mycelium.
      The crown keeps her Human looking, and- by extension, her Toad subjects… so they all plateau at a Toad stage and never progress to Goomba or full Mushroom state.
      This is also part of my Bowser theory… Bowsette is Bowser’s true form reverted back to before she was turned into a wierd amalgamation of all the underdwellers.
      Fire Red hair like a fire Spark…
      A Koopa’s shell…
      A Spiny’s spikes…
      Fire Breathing Piranha plant…
      sharp fangs like a chain chomp…
      Dinosaur features like Rex.
      Infected by so many different strains of mycelium from all these different monsters of the mushroom kingdom… Bowser becomes the most powerful of all of them- but in the process forgot what they originally were.
      Until the Koopa kids there’s nothing like Bowser in the whole world… and it’s pretty hard to imagine a boy dragon/turtle/dinosaur thing squeezing out an egg. Unless Bowser was now both and could do it Asɇхυally, ie: was female, and became more masculine by being around all the turtles and things that are largely male through their mycelium.
      We don’t see hardly any femme Goombas except for the odd handful, like Goombette in Paper Mario.
      It’s a sausage fest down there.
      The obsession with kidnapping Peach every week may not be as romantic as it became, but it might have started from a feeling of “being around this person makes me feel more human” because of the magic of her crown’s proximity effect.
      Eventually that need for relief from the Magic mycelium could have turned into this wierd feeling of “i have to have peaches! I need her!” And kidnapping her bordered on an obsessive compulsion or addiction.
      Not knowing her crown was the cure.
      I mean, doesn’t Bowser seem happier when they’re Bowsette?
      Are they still trying to kidnap peach? Or are they finally happy and the dysphoria is finally over?
      It’s almost like that’s the real version that they were all along, or deep down…
      The Crown is the Key to everything.

      The funny thing is that MatPat had already theorized that the two were long-lost brothers and sons of Foreman Spike, so imagine they give the duo a storyline where they discover that they are long-lost brothers and confront Spike about his relationship with them, leading to them using their bond as a means to get back at the Mario bros. It also fits a narrative arc about them being so similar to Mario and Luigi, brother bonds and all, but with the core difference of valuing greed and competition over the value of family and sacrifice. Unless of course they do what DreamWorks did with Goldilocks from Puss In Boots The Last Wish and let them develop as caring for each other as family..
