I'll take the minesweeper tutorial please. My wife is better than me at that game. It's the ONLY game in the world that she is better at than I am. I need help!
"I made a picture called Super Mario Bros., and my six-year-old son at the time -- he's now 18 -- he said, 'Dad, I think you're probably a pretty good actor, but why did you play that terrible guy King Koopa in Super Mario Bros.?' and I said, 'Well Henry, I did that so you could have shoes,' and he said, 'Dad, I don't need shoes that badly.'"
Man, I want the Super Mario Bros Movie to come out on Blu-Ray, but seeing as it never even came to DVD, it's just a pipe dream.
Yeah, I know it sucks - it's just one of those movies that are so far down the spectrum of 'GOD-AWFUL', that they make a full revolution and end up at 'GOD-AWESOME'.
Just like the original Street Fighter movie. One which has come out on Blu-Ray, and I will be getting.
Well, last week I played Shaq Fu for about an hour (when I received it after buying it for 3$, with box and instruction manual). And it's the Genesis version with even more broken controls (since I only have 3-button controllers, I have to press Start so that my 3 buttons do different moves.... yeah, it's really weird). I can't beat the old man no matter what i do...
And I saw the Mario movie, all of it, 3 times now...
Does that count, or do i have to watch one of the links? Bah, I'll check the Shaq Fu one...

He skips all the battles, that sucks. That doesn't help me at all...

Ok Mr.Good you have decide to punish us every weekend and we accept our punishment.Now it's my turn i dare you to watch this video without laughing ^_^
This is stupid. We don't need anymore "Man, Shaq Fu is such a bad game." or "Remember how BAD the Mario movie was?" I really can't believe you get paid for this Owen. The advertisers would make a lot more money if this site just shut down for the weekends instead of paying you to sit around and think up moronic scenarios on a no-news-day. I can't wait to see the flood of "I don't think I could sit through one minute of the Mario movie!" 4chan meme, 4chan meme.
Idiots
@OptimusPrimeape: Ah, I see that you've chosen the "Embarrass yourself with a whiny rant" punishment. A good choice, sir, a good choice... truly, the mark of a connoisseur.
@OptimusPrimeape: May I suggest you look up the concpet of Free Will.
It's gives this crazy notion that you don't have to click the link n view them clips. heck you don't even have to visit Kotaku on the weekend. Just pretend it does shut down for the weekend
You guys, star commenters aren't supposed to respond to troll bullshit like this. Replying to someone automatically promotes his comment, and even though you get to tell him off you ultimately give attention to the attention whore.
@RockyRan: However, the attention drawn will hopefully include the attention of the banhammer... and this guy needs that attention. This ain't his first comment, after all.
@RockyRan: Thats why I don't like the auto-promote on replies. I just want the green thumb.
I hate it when it also auto-promotes all the way up the thread, so i reply to one it sticks my name under everybody elses comment
@gold163 BLOOD HEAT: Wow. Against all odds, I made it all the way through. Truly, that was a triumph of trampolines, explosions, and guys who were clearly not in any way severed in two over coherence. When you absolutely, positively cannot afford to watch Star Wars, surely there is a neighbor's oven you could stick your head in rather than watch Turkish Star Wars.
@gold163 BLOOD HEAT: That were more entertaining than anything Lucas put out in the theaters in the past decade. (Seriously)
That said, I kinda feel that this is what entices Hollywood, when they aim for ripping off other storylines, emphasize on just action, and have no plot whatsoever (An example is this past weekend's blockbuster movie - Knock Off Toy's: Men In Spandex and Plastic.
Sadly, between Knock Off Toys - Men In Spandex and Plastic, and Knock Off Toys - Micheal Bay's Go Bot Second Stringers, this Turkish Movie might've sealed our movie going fate.

The Super Mario Bros. movie gets too much hate. What were they supposed to do? Fall back on the GRAND AND ENGROSSING plot of the Mario games? God no. There was no plot. They had to make things up themselves. And it was a hard job, too.
Poor guys.

@BubbleF**kingBuddy: The Super Mario Bros. movie DOES get too much hate. To me, this movie had more creativity than those games put out.
This is a great link for anyone who thinks it was a bad movie... [www.destructoid.com]
Hahaha.
I love how when they have the various Zelda-themed items morphing into cereal pieces, Link's piece is so ridiculously off from his sprite. I mean, it's like the opposite of green, has horns, no sword, and looks like a demonic Stay-puff Teddy, or something.
@fryerjackets: Are you sure about your generations?
* Generation X is the generation generally defined as those born after the baby boom ended[3][4], extending from the early-to-mid 1960s to late 1970s. They connected to the pop culture of the 1980s to the early 1990s they grew up in.[5] Other names used interchangeably with Generation X are Reagan Generation, 13th Generation, and Baby Busters. Most of this generation are children of The Baby Boomers and The Silent Generation.
* Generation Z are children, born from somewhere in the mid-1990s to the present, but some are claimed to born as early as 1991. Somewhere around early 2000 spawned Generation Q, also named the Quiet Generation, was commonly referred to in conjunction with the internet boom of the late 90s as part of the internet age[13]. This brief generation was specifically referred to computer gaming, film and entertainment combined with pop culture.
@minusX: Should've looked up the actual group he was referring to:
"Generation Y is the generation following Generation X, especially people born between 1981 to 1992. People born in the early 1990s are also included, but have some characteristics of digital natives. The generation is defined as the children of the Baby Boomer generation."
We've had more references than that too, including the "MTV Generation," the "Nintendo Generation," and "the Generation that had all the cheesy cool stuff you see on Kotaku."
