Jay 45,820 Posted March 11, 2024 Posted March 11, 2024 Nintendo & Illumination announced a sequel to this over the weekend, and it already has a release date of April 3rd 2026 https://variety.com/2024/film/news/new-animated-super-mario-bros-world-movie-nintendo-illumination-release-date-1235936648/ ThePenitentMan1 1
Jay 45,820 Posted June 18, 2024 Author Posted June 18, 2024 Hmm, though it opens April 3 in the US, it'll open April 24 in Japan https://www.twitter.com/Nintendo/status/1802869076475392024
tomsmoviemadness 4,770 Posted September 12, 2025 Posted September 12, 2025 It now has another title. The Super Mario Galaxy Movie enderdrag64 1
Tydirium 1,573 Posted September 12, 2025 Posted September 12, 2025 Brian Tyler confirmed to return! Can't wait! Sounds like he did the music for that title reveal video. enderdrag64 and Stark 1 1
Edmilson 12,224 Posted September 12, 2025 Posted September 12, 2025 Third movie in the saga will be named "Super Mario Kart" then? And the fourth will be what, Paper Mario?
tomsmoviemadness 4,770 Posted November 12, 2025 Posted November 12, 2025 Looks like it'll be a great canvas for Tyler to work on. Really hope they don't use as many needle drops as they did in the previous film instead of material by Tyler. The "Drivin' Me Bananas" cue not being in the film is still such a shame. enderdrag64 1
Stark 979 Posted November 12, 2025 Posted November 12, 2025 I maintain that there'll be no or few needledrops after the unilateral poor reception to them in the first film.

benoitjean 106 Posted January 26 Posted January 26 I'm glad Brian Tyler is continuing despite his recent health problems. At least he's recovered, which is great

When is your new theater inaugurating? Or has it been inaugurated already? Because I can suggest a few better movies to see in theaters before Mario 2 comes out...

And it wouldn't be right for it to be a really great movie, for the first, seeing as the last movie I watched in the old theater we had (that was killed due to Covid) was Rise of Skywalker... it just wouldn't be proper
Jay 45,820 Posted March 6 Author Posted March 6 Holy crap WART and other Mario 2 bad guys are in this movie! And the frog suit from Mario 3!
Edmilson 12,224 Posted March 7 Posted March 7 First predictions for the movie's opening weekend: Domestic Opening Weekend Range: $145M – $160M (3-Day) $160M – $175M (5-Day) For comparison, the first Mario movie made $146M over three days and $205M over five days.

In fact, this has the potential to surpass the first film. For the love of God and all that is good, PLEASE let there be NO needle-drops.

Interesting, usually Tyler doesn't credit the additional composers in individual tracks, this is the second times he's done it (first being Transformers One)
Knight of Ren 1,525 Posted April 1 Posted April 1 Just finished my first listen of this. I think Tyler does a good job of continuing the energy of the first score, reatining the style and themes but adding some new ones. His Bowsy Jr theme is a bit derivative, probably by design, from his own Bowser Theme, but I really like the themes for Rosalina and Yoshi, even tough the later is not used that much. The first 4 tracks are essentially suite arrangements of the new themes, with the Prelude track being an abridged version of 2 Player Game from the first game I think, highlighting his Mario theme. And there are also lots of legacy themes sprinkled through, that will surely be a treat to Nintendo fans. I really enjoyed the love he shows for the Mario Galaxy score with some tracks being used many times such as: Spoiler -the title theme appearing several times like at the end of You're Coming with Me or opening 1up -Luma and the Stardust Festival in Star Shower -rosalina's comet observatory a couple of times in Rebuilding the Castle -of course, Gusty Garden Galaxy making a couple of gorgeous appearances in tracks like A New World, The Flight Deck or Family is Forever -and then the first half of 1up is a suite of many of the different galaxy themes from the first game and many more from the game but also other games from the franchise like Super Mario World, Mario 64 and a few others, some of which I probably missed on a first listen
Rachael Foley 10,028 Posted April 1 Posted April 1 Spoiler Yoshi's story and Star Fox Knight of Ren 1
Knight of Ren 1,525 Posted April 1 Posted April 1 Spoiler Yeah, I think I noticed the theme from Yoshi's World in Taking Care of the Kingdom Isn't Easy. About Star Fox, I'm not familiar with the original soundtracks, but is that the rock section that appears in The Flight Deck?

Quppa 537 Posted April 1 Posted April 1 9 hours ago, Loopy said: iam8bit has the CD/vinyl/cassette releases again: https://www.iam8bit.com/collections/the-super-mario-galaxy-movie Curiously tracks 3 and 24 have different titles on the CD and vinyl covers compared to the digital release: 'Yoshi the Fantastic' instead of 'Yoshi on the Go' and 'Thank You Your Highness' instead of '1up'. EDIT: The track listings further down the page use the same names as the digital release, though. The covers also have the same lowercase 'is' typo in 'Family is Forever' 😭
JazzyNips 181 Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Oof, 37 on Metacritic is rough. Looks like the welcome has worn out. https://www.metacritic.com/movie/the-super-mario-galaxy-movie/
Tydirium 1,573 Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Just got back from seeing the movie. Unfortunately, some (IMO) really good music is missing from the soundtrack. Wish he would have just dumped basically everything on the album like he did the first time around.
Quppa 537 Posted April 2 Posted April 2 The album is only 12 minutes shorter than the entire movie - is it wall-to-wall music or does the album have material not in the movie and vice versa?
Stark 979 Posted April 2 Posted April 2 It's close to wall-to-wall with one needledrop. Apparently some of the casino tracks (maybe diagetic?) are missing, I wonder if they were by another composer. I doubt any other music is missing? Movie is good. The game music references are often longer than they were in the first film, and some of them get used very frequently.
Tydirium 1,573 Posted April 2 Posted April 2 If that Yoshi theme ("Yoshi On the Go") is a Brian Tyler original, it may just be the best thing he's ever written. I was sure at first that it must be from some game, but so far nobody has identified it as such. I'm a big fan of the games, but I'm surprised how much time I'm spending listening to that theme.

I know a lot of Mario music by heart and I don't recognize any theme in there, so unless it's from one of the Yoshi games (and nobody on the Mario wiki has identified such), I think it's original. A lot of rhythmic ideas are related to game tracks though - it's built from a lot of the same DNA, just not the themes. Tydirium 1

The game music references are often longer than they were in the first film, and some of them get used very frequently. Apparently there's a Super Mario World theme when they leave the desert which is absent, and also the 1-minute opening cue (a variation on Tyler's Rosalina theme) are also absent although the latter can be ripped from the movie's website. Not sure why they left these cues out when this is obviously not a shortened album.
Rachael Foley 10,028 Posted April 2 Posted April 2 References list on the Mario Wiki: https://www.mariowiki.com/The_Super_Mario_Galaxy_Movie_(Original_Motion_Picture_Soundtrack And a video: Spoiler Knight of Ren 1
Knight of Ren 1,525 Posted April 2 Posted April 2 Was just about to share the video. I'm still noticing new references with each listen and that has happened even with the score for the first movie where some of the references where so hidden that I didn't pick up on them until recently. The new themes are slowly growing on me. Still disappointed that yoshi's theme is not used more because the suite arrangement is a banger. And Rosalina's theme is definitely the best of the bunch, and I love how Tyler blends it with his own Peach theme in Rebuilding the Castle!
