Sure thing. Let’s dive into this twisting journey of thoughts:
—
Was this the first time Japan snagged something with that name, or are we talking Super Mario Bros 4 here? Not that I necessarily need to know, but what if it’s important? Anyway, NBC Universal’s upfront—these presentations, by the way, always seem to have surprises that make you do a double take—had a little nugget that would make the most Nintendo-obsessed fan perk up. We’re chatting about the next Mario movie’s name, folks.
So, picture this: a wildly formal press release, like those you’d expect at a swanky affair. It drops casually, like it’s no big deal, the deets on “Super Mario World” landing on Peacock. Yeah, NBC Universal owns Illumination, which teams up with Nintendo for these Mario flicks. Didn’t expect a business lesson today, yet here we are, huh?
Their presentation was some kind of grand parade of upcoming films, right? You wouldn’t know where to look first—Megan 2.0, Black Phone 2, something ominous like “The Phoenician Scheme,” and oh, there’s that comforting lineup with Shrek and Minions. But wait, among them was our star: “Super Mario World.”
This was supposed to drop on April 3, slating it in for the wild future of 2025-26 agendas. Yeah, it’s a bit far off, but that’s showbiz timing for you. Makes you think about how time just sometimes scoots ahead while we’re sitting there, wondering what’s for dinner. Or is that just me?
Anyway, before I drift into a tangent about the whole time-travel feeling of waiting for a movie in a few years, I’ve circled back to our jumpy, side-comment-filled adventure here through this jumble of cinematic tidbits. Super Mario World! Or wait—were we talking about its name first? I guess that’s it then. Or maybe not—who knows, honestly?
