It has to sting to be the iconic voice of arguably the most recognizable video game character in history for decades, and yet have someone who's never voiced Mario before be chosen to be his voice for the movie. At the same time, I can understand why Martinet's over-the-top accent might be a little too much for a feature-length film with plenty of dialogue.
That aside, the teaser looks promising. As a fan of the chubby plumber since the 90s, I'm excited for this. I think the nostalgia alone will bring a lot of us millennials' asses to the theater.
