Submit ReviewThe Super Mario Bros. Movie | Worth the Watch? - Episode 172
Who knew that videos games would be the saving grace of kids' movies? The Mario Bros. were two brothers were something I never expected to see on the big screen - especially this well produced (by Illumination of all things).
So, the question is - is it worth the watch?

This is without a doubt the biggest surprise of the year. A movie that I was not interested in at all, just going because it was new - to now become one of the things I am most excited about. I am not even a D&D player but Dungeons & Dragons has completely won me over. I'll tell you why - while completely avoiding any spoilers

Animation Hall of Fav cannot happen without interruptions. When this year's season was delayed, I thought that would be enough - but it wasn't so here is a second attempt to start it up again.
Starting up Animation Hall of Fav with a trilogy of episodes from last year (2022) that were never released when that was interrupted.
This trilogy has been one full of great excitement and immense joy. I am thrilled to be finishing this trilogy with a movie I have never seen before. Can the concluding film live up to all that came before?

How to Train Your Dragon is a movie that I have loved for years - but the trilogy is something I have never experienced and I'm extremely excited to continue this journey further.

Dreamworks is an incredible studio capable of releasing compelling trilogies and How to Train Your Dragon is a perfect start to this incredible trilogy. Glad to have Matt and Rob from Matt Goes to the Movies to join me to discuss this incredible film.

I do not know if there is a movie I have been more excited to review than The Mitchells vs The Machines. Even through this long and stressful weekend I have been wanting to sit down and talk about the Mitchells. This was even more exciting than going to see a new movie in theaters.
I love them, but can the Mitchells go beyond my favorite and earn some fame?

Now an Academy Award Winner!!
I love stop motion, and I was expecting this to be the winner of Animation Hall of Fav, but now I'm not so sure. It is remarkable animation, a impressive and compelling adaptation of a classic story that tells a powerful message - these are all the things I love talking about on The Basement Binge, but something didn't quite click - until it did (about the end of the episode).
So, can Guillermo live up to my expectations for Pinocchio?
---
Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Guillermo del Toro reinvents Carlo Collodi's classic tale of the wooden marionette who is magically brought to life in order to mend the heart of a grieving woodcarver named Geppetto. This whimsical, stop-motion musical directed by Guillermo del Toro and Mark Gustafson follows the mischievous and disobedient adventures of Pinocchio in his pursuit of a place in the world.

This has been my most anticipated film of the first part of the year. Creed blew me away and I couldn't wait to see what Michael B. Jordan would do with it as a first-time director. Additionally, Jonathan Majors has been taking over my mind as a new Hollywood powerhouse. All to say, Creed 3 was looking quite promising.
I was giddy anticipating 3.3.23 and the day finally came, I was blown away. Ecstatic to review this, and then sneak out to go see it again. Here are my thoughts on the marvelous 🙃 Creed III

I have been looking forward to this "binge" for a long time. I loved the first Creed and Creed 3 has been one of my most anticipated films of the year. To say I was excited to finally see Creed 2 would be to understate it. But as I revisited the first film and was reminded of its greatness, doubt began to creep in. I wasn't sure if they would be able to repeat something so great, especially without Ryan Coogler. Suddenly rating percentages and star averages started to make me question the potential.
It finally came to watch Creed 2, just in time to catch my show time for Creed 3. And while I'm fighting to hold my tongue about Creed 3, I am happy to be talking about Creed 2.

Rocky has meant a lot to me for a long time, but for some reason Creed went under my radar for too long. When I finally did see Creed I knew it was something remarkably special, I couldn't wait to review it on the podcast as I knew I would have some things to say about its impactful emotional scenes.
I am looking towards Creed III with great excitement and Creed is the only right way to start.
