Show Notes Chapter Markers

It's a me! Mario!  Jump through the portal, go down the pipe, and let's collect this treasure of a film.  Considered by many to be one of the worst films ever made, this movie scared Nintendo into never lending out its IP ever again.  If you ask me, it kicks off a video game movie curse that was only recently broken by Detective Pikachu. 

On Keep or Cancel , we're talking the late Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo!

Super Mario Bros. (1993) is not available literally anywhere, so good luck.  Maybe find it on DVD.
