If only they'd gotten Ben Wyatt to play Sonic instead of Jean-Ralphio

Heck, I would have been okay with Tom Haverford

Honestly, with the cast choices they made I don't have high hopes for it.

I had high hopes for it until I found out that it's animated.

Keegan Michael Key as Toad would be funny as shit in live action. Seth Rogan's laugh already sounds like Donkey Kong or something so that's perfect, too.

Out of genuine curiosity what is you main concerns with the cast? The major members of the cast seem to fulfill the needs for a comedy.

people are too quick to jump to conclusions

people lost their minds when Heath Ledger was cast as the joker. You never know when people might surprise you

I think that's more because they didn't really have a good picture of what the movie itself was going to be like.

I really have little respect for Illumination's work. The fact the cast seems like the sort of thing I'd expect from them means it's already falling into that gap.

I wonder what went into deciding that they needed/wanted all those names and what went into getting them. Feels like they must be expecting it to make a bazillion dollars if they bothered to go that hard on the cast. I also think that while it doesn't necessarily mean that it will be a soulless piece of crap it also bothers me when animation projects don't get real voice actors. Screen actors are sometimes good voice actors but they're usually not as good as actual VAs.

Celebrity voice actors are just a part of the formula for a lot of studios, and they probably felt the brand was big enough that they could commit to a lot of them.

Chris Pratt also starred in the very succesful LEGO movie, which may have also factored in.

The casting for this reminds me a lot of the casting done for SCOOB!. It has a similar vibe.

The LEGO movie and peak Studio Ghibli dubs would be my go to comparison for this, yeah.

A Mario movie sounds like the most boring movie possible. Maybe they'll surprise me like the Lego Movie did (Pratt again) buut...the source material isn't great for a movie.

Or maybe they want 7-yr-olds to watch it and they don't care what I think. :)

I hope they don't turn Goombas or whatever into Minion clones. I like Minions, but I don't think every animated movie needs something like them.

I want Danny DeVito to play a live-action Waluigi where they CG him into the necessary proportions.
