Movie Kingdom

MOVIE KINGDOM


In a lot of ways, the best aspect of the 2023 Super Mario Bros. Movie was its visuals. Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto worked closely with the film's directors to brink the imagery of the games to life in a new and unique way. One of the first things that got me excited personally was the release of a poster that showed the concept for the Mushroom Kingdom, with Peach's castle built on top of one of those domed mountains, with a big complex city built up and around the mountain.

There was no way the stage for this movie was not going to be a touring stage. Using that moving platform Peach used to take Mario to her training course as the base, the stage will work its way around the capitol city, touching down in a lot of important spots, such as the courtyard in front of the castle, the training course itself, several spots around the city, the mushroom forest outside the city where Mario first emerged, and, at one point, Bowser's Kingdom will arrive on the scene, giving the stage new places to land at.
