    Things have changed.

    As long as it's competent, I'll be happy.

    basically. we all know miyamoto's more of a toymaker than a storyteller

    but there's no way the director and writers they got for this aren't just as 100% invested as the visuals team. it's mario

    If sounding stupid once were enough to never talk again, most of the population would have vows of silence.

    Not certain if this is a dig at me or not, so I'm just gonna be like this for a while.

    Not intentionally, tbh! Just me disagreeing with that defeatist take on Link dialogue, doubling as a comment on the general state of humanity.

    But, if you think you fall under that category, who am I to argue?

    Plus, it’s the first kids movie since “Puss In Boots.” Parents have probably been planning for it for months.

    I guess I don't really understand what you're saying. I don't know whose take is the defeatist one and I don't know who the people are who are sounding stupid. You're leaving it kind of ambiguous to me.

    hyped for tomorrow when I see dungeons and dragons for $5 and then the next day going to every single showing of this to find all the Easter eggs

    The people sounding stupid are just the, uh… general human population, lol.

    The defeatist take is the idea that, because a cheap cartoon was iconically bad decades ago, a Zelda adaptation with Link dialogue would be a mistake. It’s all about execution.

    Ah, okay. I didn't actually think you were digging at me, that was just a joke, but I did honestly not understand your post, and I do now. Thanks for clarifying.

    Mario is arguably the most recognizable game character of all time. It’s no surprise this movie is going to make bank

    Just imagine the credits start to fade to black and you are about to leave the theater and then you just hear that signature WAHHHHH and the tease begins for the next move in the Mario verse.
