So first off :

Let me make things clear everyone. It is preferable to use spoilers if you want to say anything about the movie (which is the literal purpose of this topic), but since the title doubly implicates spoilers, it's not a big deal if you forgot it. Anyways, you can share your opinions  thoughts, and the facts you noticed.

Enjoy ! :D

I loved the references, from the little soundtracks discretly playing, to the Deep Dark Galaxy remix, to the "but the princess is in another castle !" to the customization machines, I loved all of the references, the film had action, emotion and humor, that's literally what I'm asking for, this is really good for me

brooklyn becomes one with the mushroom kingdom, and mario gets sent flying into a pizza place, where he sees his old ad where he would "save brooklyn," so he decided to keep on trying, and soon, bowser lost ahold of his star, and the mario bros use it. a pirahna plant gets them, thinking they're done for, but the bros break out and finish the job. (bowser becomes peach's pet). that was my favorite part:D:)

I just saw the movie in theatres today, here’s my thoughts about it.

Spoiler [ShowHide]
The movie was absolutely amazing. It’s gotta be one of the best that I’ve seen this year. One of my favourite things were the references, the punch out cafe, the hat shop in the mushroom city. And so much more. The the musical references where also amazing, it was a lota fun figuring out what songs were playing. The story was pretty good to and I enjoyed it quite a bit. My one complaint is that the movie had a bit of a  pacing issue, sometimes it felt like the characters agreed to things to quickly. But In the sequel this issue probably won’t exist seeing as the characters are already established. Overall I’d rate the movie a solid 8.5/10.

After watching the movie (on first day release!), I can safely say that "Peaches" is the absolute climax of human artistic achievement. No feat, no matter what it is, done by humanity will never compare to Bowser's multiverse-worthy performance. All jokes aside, that movie was fricking amazing. Can't wait for its Netflix release!

The movie was great. The only other film I've ever watched that I would deem better is Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves but since this is the first Mario movie (we don't talk about the 1993 one) I'll cut it some slack.
My favorite characters by far were Toad, Peach and Lumalee. Lumalee never got much screen time, but it was made clear that he was a nihilstic masochist (like me) and he was added primarily for humor. Needless to say, it goddamn worked. Peach was just fucking badass. There's no other explanation for it. Then Toad. The guy who helped Mario throughout everything while Luigi was held hostage. Kudos to Toad, the coolest mushroom-headed mortal in the Mushroom Kingdom.
The only two characters I disliked were Spike and Donkey Kong. Spike was a huge jerk all throughout. The reason? Because the Mario Bros. left HIS CONSTRUCTION SITE THAT ONLY MARIO'S DAD GAVE A SHIT ABOUT. (On the topic of Mario's dad, am I the only one who thinks he looks awfully similar to Talon from The Legend of Zelda...?) And now Donkey Kong. I didn't hate him as such, he had great character development. The only problem is that he barely used his brain. He hated Mario just because he tampered his clean streak in the arena, and he kept mocking Mario on Rainbow Road. Even when Mario saved him from drowning, he still held a grudge. The good part about Donkey Kong, though, was definitely the turnabout he had at the end.
Overall: 9/10. It managed to fit in a ton of meticulously planned references in the short space of 92 minutes. My only real gripe were Spike and DK, but for a future sequel, they're definitely gonna improve. I can tell.

Now my predictions for a sequel:
Spoiler [ShowHide]
Bowser Jr. arrives in the Dark Lands after Bowser breaks free from the cage. He tells Bowser of a gang of seven Koopa bandits led by Roy, Lemmy and Ludwig (the Koopalings of course) that can aid him on his quest to defeat the Mario Bros.. Meanwhile, Mario and Luigi are continuing their daily business in the Mushroom Kingdom when Toad tells them of Bowser's new plot to conquer the galaxy. After Toad ushers them to the castle, Peach brings them up to speed on what's going on and proposes that they gather an army again.
This time, the Mario crew travel to the Desert Kingdom, where Princess Daisy reigns. She only agrees because Luigi manages to defeat King Totomesu in battle after all of the Mario crew get caught by Daisy's guards and thrown into the dungeon.
Meanwhile, Yoshi hatches in Brooklyn and they desperately try to find their way back to Yoshi's Island. The Warp Pipe instead takes them to the Dream Kingdom, where Bowser has reached.
In the Dream Kingdom, Bowser meets King Wart, who makes a deal with Bowser to help him conquer the galaxy. Despite Bowser's burning desire to conquer the galaxy alone, he agrees to seal the contract as it would look bad on him if he waged war with the people of Subcon. Bowser later notices the Yoshi running away, so he orders Kamek to hold him hostage.
Meanwhile, Mario's adventure across the land hasn't ended, as they manage to go to the Comet Observatory after Lumalee turns into a Launch Star despite lamenting the fact that he didn't perish at the hands of Bowser.
At the Comet Observatory, they encounter Rosalina, who is reluctant to help as she claims that only she can rule the galaxy and does not require any further help. Suddenly, they spot an airship coming their way, driven by Roy, Lemmy and Ludwig. Mario takes on the Koopalings before they can harm his friends, but he fails to beat Lemmy, who blows up half of the Comet Observatory with a Bob-omb.
Rosalina uses her psychic powers to bring them back down to the land safely, but as soon as they reach the land, Bowser spots them and orders Kamek to capture them. He is unable to capture Rosalina, who rivals and bests Kamek's magic abilities, and feigns an alliance with Bowser. She then captures the Mario crew and they get dragged into the dungeons.
They begin to plot an escape, but Rosalina meets them in the dungeon, and tells them that they're allowed to escape, but first they must all best the Koopalings in combat.
They best the majority of the Koopalings, but they struggle against Lemmy and Ludwig, whose magic knocks Daisy and Toad out. Mario and Luigi give them 1-UP Mushrooms, so the fight continues as usual. Peach hammers Ludwig through the floor with ease, but Lemmy's magic grows stronger and he summons clones of himself to swarm the Mario crew. After they figure out who the real Lemmy is, he goes inside his shell and hammers Luigi, Toad and Daisy down. Soon enough, Mario and Peach best Lemmy.
Bowser Jr. appears in his Koopa Clown Car, and he hammers Peach into the ground. Mario pulls Bowser Jr. out of the Clown Car, grabs a Cape Feather and slams Bowser Jr. through the ground. Bowser reveals that he had fooled them all and was instead going to drop them into the lava. Rosalina realizes her mistake, kicks Bowser in square in the face and rescues the Mario crew.
Bowser does not give up, however. He chases them through the galaxies, breathing fire, punching and going into his shell to attack. The Mario crew manages to best Bowser, but he claims that he has established his castle as the center of the universe. They all get pulled into space, where the final fight occurs. The final boss theme from Super Mario Galaxy 2 plays, and the fight is reminiscent of that game. The Mario Crew attack by hurling meteorites at Bowser, but as soon as he is bested a second time, he uses his magic to pull the galaxies together and the 3rd phase begins. Bowser's army go all out and attack alongside him, capturing Peach, Luigi, Toad, Daisy and Rosalina while Bowser makes a tactical retreat.
Mario follows them, but he realizes that Bowser will try to kill his friends. Bowser grows twenty times his size and punches Mario. Mario notices that Rosalina left her wand behind and utilizes its power against Bowser's while the galaxies continue to compress. Mario saves his friends, Yoshi steps in and eats Bowser after Bowser shrinks back down to his normal size.
(I know this is weird but it's just a prediction :p)

I liked how the D.K rap, Bowser's Fury theme and Mario super show theme were used in parts that fit the songs.

I saw the movie yesterday and it was amazing. I loved all the references like going through Sand Kingdom from Odyssey while they were headed to Kong Island, same for Bob-Omb Battlefield from SM64. I think Yoshi was a little underused though. Otherwise, amazing movie.

Yoshi was extremely underused, I mean he didn’t even show up until the post credits scene. Hopefully he’ll have a larger role in the sequel.

Nope, there was about 2 frames on the journey to the Kongs where it showed Yoshis playing about (still mega underused tho)
